PITTSBURG CLUB HAS
 BATS OF STRANGE WOOD

Billy Mururay, the free lance scout, says fits in the wood in speaking of the quality of bats. There is a cess in turning up bats that are said by Pittsburgh players to work, won derfu1 improvement in hitting. The wood is known as Cuban wood, the timber being a slate color. It is hard to detect the grain in a bat of this kind.
 Billy Murray nays that Bill Knight, one of the great sluggers of years ago, attributed his success in long drives to the kind of bat he used.
 Bill never paid much money for his special bats,' said Murray. He goods supply houses and ask to see the old bats in the cellars. Bills treas ures were in the high piles of castoff bats, filled with cobwebs and prob ably coated with the dust of years and peculiarly treated by being in piles Knight would select the sticks he liked, paying maybe 10 or 1 2 cents apiece for what had been regarded as so much junk Sixteen cents was a high price for him to pay. He claim ed that this crude method was the best means in the world for season. ing bats. Like wine, he said, they improved with age.
 Hans Wagner uses one kind of bat all the time until he begins to slump a little in hitting. Then he begins to use another until it, too, seems to need rest. The sticks are mates both of them big, ugly warc1ubs hay ing dark slate color and an awful weight at the heavy end. These bats contrary to general belief are not turned up to order, but merely were picked up in some store, probably in another cellar pile of old ones.''

WARN|NG!

A warning against the further
thinning of peaches and apples was
issued To-day by Expert r. S. Her
rick In a statement made to The
Sentinel. he said, The usual June
drop is taking place at this time and
thinning should be stopped until the
drop is over 1t is advisable TO
wait until June ; and 20. as there
is no way of knowing now what
fruit will stick on the trees and
what will not
The apples, with the exception of
the Ben Davis and Ganos, VIII not
require much thinning, and it is
thought that the Elbertas will thin
themselves to a great extent. 1t will
not only save expense but avoid
the risk of taking off too much

OPENS MONDAY

The annual convention of the Mesa
County Sunday Schools will be held
in this city on Monday and Tuesday
of next week in the Methodist church.
Unusual preparations are being made
in order to make this the greatest
and most beneficial session that has
ever been held on the western slope.
Last year the Palisade districts
were greatly helped. but not many
delegates from outside cities were
in evidence. This year II is the plan
to have at least seventy delegates
from cities other than our own. En-
tertainment has been already provid-
ed for that number.
Hosts of people from here will at
tend the sessions, and there Is no
doubt of success in every way. The
different churches are preparing to
serve supper Monday evening and
dinner and supper on Tuesday for all
visiting delegates.
A speaker of wide reputation and
especially popular in his line of work
arrives from Chicago for the entire
session. 1t is the good fortune of
all that II is possible for him, jtO.,be
present. His name is Charles, B.
Hall of Chicago.
Other speakers and workers such
as John c. Carman and local talent
will add to the interest of the pro-
gram. Programs have been printed
and may be had from superintend-
ents or at the Y NJ. c. A. office.
The Sunday school work in this
city should be of high order after
the inspirations which will come
with this coming convention.
