BY SENATOR"

BOSTON Mass, May 81. - Walter
Smokeball johnson is king of pitchers.
Long live the king! Twirling his second
game in three days. he never looked bet
ter in his life. Under a heavy drizzle that
threatened at times to halt the game,
Johnsons curve ball never was more
mystifying. The gloomy. murky skies
aided his magnificent speed, and the
greatest sluggers of the Red Sox bowed
in obeisance before this king of the
mound.
Thirteen batters marched to the plate,
waved their useless wands, and marched
back again. Steve Yerkes and Larry
Gardner alone escaped this brand of
their weakness, even the mighty iris
Speaker and the walloping Duffy Lewis
falling prey to his speedy shoots. Hugh
Bradley famed three times, and wave
of sarcastic applause swept the big
stand when he managed to lift a fly to
Clarence Walker in the ninth inning.
Johnson registered a clean shut-out'
the final tally being to 0.
Larrv Gardner tripled in the second
with one gone, and stood there helpless
while Bradley and Wagner waved futile
poles. He was the only one of the Red
Sox to reach third base. Hooper and
Lewis got as far as second, but had tt
rest there while those following them
wasted their efforts in a vain search fol-
a safe hit.
Hammer O'Brien.
And while johnson held his wand OF
mystery over the enemy, the Nationals
swatted Buck O'Brien all over the
arena. They got a hit almost whenever
they wanted one, except in the eighth
when they couldn't score, though flline
the corners with none out. Foster, Gan
dill, Mcbride, and Morgan were the hit.

Baseball Values.

No ball players value to his club is marked solely by
his ability to play the game. There dozens of ball
players ranked only with the average field of far more
worth to their clubs than others recognized as stars
The spirit of contest counts more than the ability to flag
a wild peg with paw. This detail is overlooked too
often and credit is showered heavily in certain spots
where others out of the spotlight are due the major
share Of applause To which respect baseball no whit
different from that other merry little game known
Life Far too often the flash catches the Public Orb
rather than the steady flame.

Concerning June.

June may for its days, its brides and
flowers but 1t carries other usages in the way Of
worth.
June is generally the month in which the hope that
sprang eternal in April begins to softly exude and
wither away. 1t is the classic month where mid
form is supposed to begin its Stride the month
wherein the Athletics begin to close up the gap; where
the begin settle erswhe leaders begin to
discourse eoquenty upon next year."
The June stride is the first which offers fair line
upon the situation The battle up to date has been
mainly preliminary skirmishing, the thirty
days will begin TO furnish the first fair basis for
healthy guess.

 DELAY IN DIVIDEND

 Due Directors Absence

BOSTON, Dec lS.-The Street Is beginning to ask If failure Of shannon directors to meet for action on Givi. dend which was expected to be paid on January 1 indicates that the com pany will make no payment al that time While it is possible that the next dividend may not be payable lin- tl January B or possibly February !. the chief reason why action has nor previously been taken is that t has been impossible to get Q quorum, q majority Of the directors being away. lt is probable, however. that a meet ing will be held between now ant will be declared.
 lt will he remembered that the Oc- tOEer dividend of 59 cents per shiro Was not designated as quarterly. d. though it was generally supposed that the stock had been placed on a g. per anuum basis. While the directors have not yet decided when the next dividend twill be paid or al what rate, there is no reason t0 expect that it will be changed from the October pay ment Earnings in September and 0c tober. the first two months of the company s fiscal year, were in the az gregate only about SI5000. but No vemcer again got back to normal, 50 that for the three months net has been very close to S1j0.

 The shannon dividend policy is by no means settled. but it is a fair as- sumption that vGry considerable part of net will be disbursed to stock holders in future. as the company has no large property expenditures ahead of it. Some of the earnings this year will be applied to the purchase of ad, ditional bonds Of the ShannOn-Arizona Railway Co. following the policy adopted in the past fiscal year when Sl30, 900 were bought fin the open mar. ket It would not be surprising If S70.O00 more were purchased mak. ing a total of s200. 900, or one-third the amount originally issued
