This is Bush's first season in the
big leagues. He had some experience
at MissouIa, Mont, but he hasn't
played league ball very long. as he is

son, however, he has made a splendid
record, one OF the best ever made by
a recruit in the big leagues. His

$50.
II was at Brainerd, Mimi, some
twenty nine years ago that Charles
Albert Bender first saw the light Of
day. About nine years later Joe Bush
opened his eyes for the first time and
looked on the same town.
When Chief Bender was helping the
Athletics to down the rival American
league clubs ten years ago. Bush was
going to school at Brainerd. Even in
those days, it is recalled. he was some

baseball player and those who watched
him on the sand lots suggested that he
might some day follow Bender's exam
pie and make a name for himself in
the big leagues.
Bush said he reckoned he'd keep
Brainerd on the baseball map.
He certainly has. First he went 20
Missoula, Mont. and II was there he
made the record which induced Connie
Mack to secure him for the Athletics.
Probably Bush is today the best
pitcher on the Mack team.
If there is anything in the pitching
line that Bush hasn't, the critics have
overlooked It, He has speed. cures,
a slow ball and control. He also
has brains and nerve. In the great
game with the Giants he never fall
tered, he never stumbled. He pitched
a worlds series game with the same
indifference as he would toss to the
batters. He won without strain or
effort

.CHAS. A. PROUTY
WILL RETIRE SOON
Will Leave Interstate Commerce Board
to Become Manager of Branch Phys
icaI Valuation of Railroads.
BY ASSOCIATED PRESS.

Washington, Oct. 13.-Charles A
Prouty will retire in the near future
as a member of the interstate COM
merce commission to become manager
of the branch for physical valuation
OF railroads. Commissioner Prouty has
been member of the commission since
December. 1896, when he was appoint
ed by President Cleveland and since
has served continuously.
When legislation was enacted pro-
viding for the physical valuation of
railroads the commissioner selected
Mr.. Prouty to have general charge OF
the work. 1t became evident at once
that 1t would be impossible for him
to continue as a member OF the COM
mission and give at the same time
adequate attention to the railway val
uation work. Until recently he decided
to resign from the commission, and
at the suggestion of his associates,
take up the work of directing the valu-
alton of railways.
Commissioner Prouty's retirement
probably will be about November L.
That will make two vacancies on the
commission for President Wilson to
fill this year. The term Of Commits
sioner Judson c. Clements of Georgia
will expire in December. Generally it
is expected that he will be reappoint-
ed by President Wilson. He is a
