THREW ss BALLS IN
 GINNING GAME

In an article on How to Win Base ball Games, published in the July American Magazine" Hugh s. Fuller ton says:
 Tt is possible for a pitcher to throw only 27 balls in a nineinning game No accurate record of the smallest number of balls thrown in any game exists. as no one counts every bali in every game. scored one game in which Ed Walsh pitched only SS balls, seven of which were fouls, which I regard as remarkable saw Coombs pitch r balls to one batter last summer. The greatest number Of pitched balls l ever count ed in a game was 211, George CRubeD Waddell being the victim, and he weakened in the ninth and allowed five runs-showing that the strain was too great even for a man of his marvellous power and endur- ance."

CLARK IN OKLAHOMA.

Onr old friend, Gen. j. &. Jamison

civil war, and Adjutant General %
this State under Governor Marina
duke, now past four score years old
writes us as follows:
GUTHRIE, OKLA, Feb. ..
My Dear Old Friend:
The presidential campaign and its
excitement here Is subsiding into
the conviction that Speaker Champ
Clark will carry off the honOrs when
the State Convention meets in Okla
homa City on February 22d. Indeed
there would have been little contest
in this State but for the foolish and
Improbable imbroglio in Missouri,
which Injuries the chances Of her
furnishing the United States with
the next President.
My old native State, which ! still
love with n devotion that grows
stronger as | near the end, will lose
the opportunity Of her life, which
may never again come to her, II
Governor Folk does not gracefully
and periodically give way to the
trend of the popular voice at the
Joplin Convention on the 10Th.
No man of all the names men
toned for the presidency has such a
tremendous following all over the
country as has Speaker Clark, and
cannot help feeling that Missouri
ought not fritter away this great OPP.
pOrtunity over mere men. With all
my esteem for Speaker Clark and
our long and unbroken personal
friendship, my love is greater for
my native State, In whose rich DO.
som my ancestors bones lie buried
and were the case reversed and Gov
ernor Folk had the conceded follow
ing outside of Missouri that Speaker
Clark has, | would use al the pow
ers of persuasion at my command
in favor of Governor Folk.
That's how | feel about this fool
ish, nonsensical fight. | repeat,
that this is Nissouri's opportunity
to give the country the next Presi-
dent. 1t may never come again.

away over mere men?

Democrats at Baltimore.

The week of June - ought to be
regarded as "Old Home Coming
Week" for the Democrats at Balti-
more. The decision OF the national
committee to hold the convention in
that city takes the Democracy back
to its old stamping grounds" SO
far as national conventions are con-
cerned.
The first national convention held
by the Democrats, 1852, was ut Bal.
timore, and they continued to be
held there until 1856, when the con
vention, for political reasons, was
taken to Cincinnati. In 1860 the
first meeting of the Democratic ma
tional convention was ut Charles
ton, :. c., and IL was held as early
as April %. After flfty-seven bal
lots were taken without making n
nomination the convention al
journed to Baltimore, where Stephen
A Douglas was nominated on June
Is. The Southern Democrats who
holted the convention nominated
breckenridge in the same city.
The Democrats have not held n
convention i'm Baltimore since 1872,
when Horace Greeley was nominated.
In 1876 the convention went to ST.
Louis; in 1880 to Cincinnati; in 1884,
Chicago; in lSSS, St. Lonis: in 1892,
Chicago, in 1896, Chicago: in 1900,
Kansas City; in 1904, st. Louis, and
in 1908, Denver.
The Republicans held their ma
tional convention in Baltimore in
1864, and the Wings 1874, and lSj6.-
