LAJoIE A REAL SECOND EASTMAN
Map" Has Shown Wonderful Ability During His CanssA

For years Lf Try Lajoie was a party to two d1fferenH sets of baseball areu : ments. One was in respect to his and Hans Wagners batting ability, and anather was whether he was a better second baseman than Fred Dunlap. So writes Cleveland baseball scribe. Like the question Of Who Is the king of hrst sackersf" there has always been more or less dispudng the leadership or the keystone sack guardians. There nas always been enough competitions Tor leading honors to make room for many warm argument. Hence it has always been in order to spring the query, Who is king of the second sackers ?'
 Freddy Dunlap was all that could be desired as a second sacker. He was a fine batter, hitting up with such stars as Anson. Brouthers, Duffy, etc., and in the field he was demon. Never was his like seen. The most impossible plays were turned by him with con- summate ease. He was the s1drit of grace in the field and none d1lred to compare any of the others with him. While in condition to play his regular game Dunlap was supreme.
 Freddie Pfeffer, the old Chicago C(White Sox) second sacler, was Dun laps chief rival when Dunlap was in his prime. Pfeffer was a great fielder and hard and timely batter, Ht was the pivot around which swung the famed infield of the Sox in the sOs Claude Richey was the next to have the honor of being king. He was graceful fielder and covered a world of territory around the second sack. He and Hans Wagner learned the game together. and like the Teuton he learn ed the past1me thoroughly He topped the position but a short time, for the greatest player the position ever saw was next ushered in, namely, Larry Lajoie.
 The history of Lajoie's career in the national game is written in letters of gold. He ie player that has been nothing but a credit to the pastime. As batter he has known but few equals. AS a fielder the player never was born who could show him anything. Grace ful, alert and striving. he makes plays of the most difficult sort look easy. Some there were who questioned his gameness-by what right no one knows for Lajoie never side stepped a play and was always willing to mix it with 1 the base runner. Some say he is lazy, | but this assertion is the greatest trib- ute to his gracefulness.
 l The large number of times Lajoie has been cut down by the cruel spikes of base runners attest his gameness, while
 the players who have been unfortunats enough to have hits taken away from
 them by Larry will tell you how very lazy he is. Glancing back over the time
 Lajoie has resigned supreme one re- calls many of his rivals who have
 made baseball history. It is not six Lteen years since he broke into the
 game, and during that time there has been any number of star second hase- men. Claude Ritchey, Hobs Ferris
 Jimmy Williams. Danny MEphv, Johnl Thy Evsrs and Eddie Collins are somt of his rivals past and present.

FINANCIAL AND COMMERCIAL
BETTER CROP REPORT.
Its Publication by Government Affects
 Market Favorably.

New York, Sept. 9.-The stock mar ket lost little of It's 1rregularity and dullness with the resumption of oper- ations today. As has been so frequent ly the case recently, number of spe- cial stocks were active at material ad- vances, notably Sears Roebuck, and Goodrich, each gaining 5 points, while American Can and Chino Copper were most conspicuous among industrials and metals. Canadian Pacific was all most the sole railway issue to exhibit any degree of strength, it's rise coin ciding with adv1ces from the Domin- ion indicating that much of the recent opposition to the proposed capital in crease had subsided. Hartman issues selling ex-dividend were plainly under restraint, as were also the Hill stocks, regardless of Great Northern's hand some July returns.
 In the late afternoon, soon after the publication of the government crop report, the list moved forward to the highest level of the day. The report, which is of September 1, shows gain of over 9 points in corn, and almost as much in oats, while the spring wheat condition is slightly better than a month ago. The estimated corn crop is 2,955 .000,0 900 bushels, an increase of IA, 100000 bushels over August and comparing with the 1911 final yield of 2,531, ,4SS, 900 bushels. The total spring and winter crop is estimated at 690,- 000, 600 bushels as against last year s final figures of 26133S,o00.
 Other events to which Wall street gave some consideration included the outcome of the Maine election, the meeting of the railway engineers ar bitration board and the August report of the copper producers. showing a large decrease in supplies. More im- portant. perhaps, than these were the renewed indications of tighter money, and the Mexican situation. Last Sat urdays poor bank statement was re- f1ected in an advance of over-year money to 1-2 per cent, while call loans averaged per cent
 The bond market was steady on light dealings. Total sales, par value, amounted to $1,565.000.
 United States government bonds were unchanged on call.
 Hill May Invade Steel Business.
 St Paul. Minn., Sept s.-There was a rumor in financial circles today that James J. Hill intends to embark in | the steel business. This was a sequel to his purchase of the Second National bank of St. Paul and his announce intention to establish the largest trust l company in the northwest MT. Hill | already is interested in steel plant l at St. Cloud. Minn.. where lately much attention has been given to making steel rails.
 This. coupled with the fact that MT | Hill soon will have extensive ore fields on his hands, because the United States Steel corporation has cancelled
 its contract with the Great Northern f railway, gave rise to the report.

Danger of Distilled Water.

Continued use of distilled water re- duces the strength of the physical or ganism because, while distilled water is chemically pure and free from germs, it contains nothing but oxygen and hydrogen. The indispensable min- eral salts are left behind during the process of distillation. AS long as life persists in the body the elimination of mineral salts goes on and this means the rapid characterization of the or ganism. Characterization predisposes the system to tuberculosis. The num- erous cases of tuberculosis among the young sailors of the French navy are attributed to the characterization of the organism by continual drinking of distilled water, the water used aboard ships of war, where every effort is made to protect the men from the bad hygienic conditions of the life below decks. The fact is regarded as of very serious interest. The surgeons of the French navy are studying the best means of treating the distilled water used aboard ship with mineral matter. |-Harper's Weekly
