Southern league is farther south.
1t is in South Chattanooga"
The fans went ON their differ
ent ways and the local fan did
not hear any more of their cnlight-
ening conversation.
THE coming OF spring invariably
finds William f. Hart, that
Nestor Of the diamond, blooming
forth again like the asphodel, and
as fresh and bright as the coy
anemone. Bill has been passing
the winter at his home in Bond
Hin, where he has found the time
going about as slowly as the cars
which have been coming to that
suburb for the last thirty years.
But unlike those longed for cars.
spring is at last on the way. and
1t won't be long before the sage
of Bond Hill will be donning the
war paint again for another sea-
sons work.
Bill mas signed up again with
Senator Kavanaugh as umpire in
the Southern league, making his
fourth consecutive season in that
capacity
Il have got along fine during
that time said Bill THAT is
if there is any such thing as an
umpire getting along fine. OF
course. | find il harder work than
pitching, as it is an everyday Job,
and once in while double headers
thrown in at that. Pitching now
adays is snap. with one or two
games a week, while years ago it
was three or four week or you
were an awful loafer Pitchers
surely have it easy compared to
what they used to have. have
been carrying around a good arm
for several years just to turn the
indicator WITH and that is about
all it needs to keep it in condition.
My arm is still good. and when let
out by Chattanooga In 1910 it was
not that the arm was bad, but the
mana cement thought ii might get
bad"
Bill is one OF the remarkable
and admirable characters of the
game, and can pitch fine ball to-
day but will probably stick to UNI
piring. AT which ne has been as
successful as he was for so many
years at handing that famous slow
curve over the plate.

them-though he wasn't foolish
enough to cut anything loose yes

Herman, by the way, used to be
a teammate of Ed Sweeney's on
the Illinois Glass club. semi-prO-
fessional organization.
ORLIE WEAVER. the only other
recruit who showed up yester-
day, contented himself with batting
practice and a half hours gentle
warm-up with a small boy acting
as catcher, TO make it certain that
he wouldn't let out any. However,
Weaver has already pitched one
full nine-inning game this season,
and is dead ripe right now. He has
a lot more weight than he had last
year and more strength, too, thanks
to a winter in the open.
WEAVER and Jay Kirke, who
were at baseball headquarters
for pow WOW yesterday morning,
have nothing but mushy compli-
ments for DObard one of Atlanta's
candidates for the shortstop posi-
ton.
He's big lad, with a fine build
for a player" said Kirke; can field
we'll, hits hard and doesn't seem to
have a weakness. I'll say this for
him-he got under about every
thing l ever hit while l was playing
against him. He was too good
then to suit me-"
Both Kirke and Weaver ex-
pressed the opinion that he would
be good enough for regular job
with the Crackers.

thing else.

Toledo. O.. Jan 80. 1912
Dear Sir and Friend:
In answer to your communica
ton Of date January p, 1913. in
regard to the birth of nay son,
Luther McCarty, will say that there
have been many places selected
as the birthplace of Luther. lie
never was born in only one place
and that was Hitchcock county.
Nebraska, out on Driftwood creek,
and I'm the Wild Horse canyon,
Mach 20. 1892. Mrs. Isaac I'm
derhn, of Cornell. Neb., was the
midwife and he was born in a sod
house. | suppose the house is torn
down by this time. John Reese,
Pat Roache or Johnny Houlihan
all can tell the exact location
there in wild Horse canyon.
Luther McCarty's mother was OF
Scotch blood, weight 2S0 pounds,
and was nearly feet high. My
weight at the present time is 80
pounds and | am feet IL inches
tall. My father was much larger
than | am and my mother was OF
Scotch descent and a much larger
woman than Luther's mother Mrs.
McCarty. Luther's mother, is bur
led at Trenton cemetery, as is Lu-
theirs little brother. After | left
the ranch | went to st. Louis and
organized medicine company,
which has provided for me hand
somely.
Your letter was greatly appre-
ciated. as you were my old neigh
Dor in the homesteading days and
lived there when Luther came into
the world | would like to hear
from you at any time
Your old friend and ranchman.

To G. W. Benjamin, Trenton, Neb,
THAT the baseball fever is rum
ming high in Knoxville at the
present time is borne out by the
fact that. although chilly blasts
were whistling around the vari-
Gus buildings one day recently,
two enthusiastic fans came togeth
er on one OF the popular street
corners in the downtown district
and an argument anent baseball
was started according to story
related by a local fan. The wind
blew and the frost whizzed by in
singing gusts, yet these two en-
thusiasts took time To exchange a
few ideas and the question under
discussion was this: Is the South
ern league a faster circuit than the
Appalachian? DO Appalachian fans
see a faster sample of the national
pastime than do the bugs down in
Atlanta. Birmingham and Mobile
One fan was positive that the
Appalachian was the faster league.
He produced volumes of evidence
to prove his point and with Il
choice selection of gestures he
clinched his argument by saying:
The Appalachian sent up more
players last season than did all the
other leagues put together What
about that"
"Oh, that il no sign. Only a
softer lot of scouts came this way
than went the other route-that's

U. 8. ENLARGED BY MoRoAN's
 Ss,0oo, 900 LOAN TO MEXICO

WASHINGTON.--T New York American learns that the government resented the action of banking syn dicate heal ded by I. r. Morgan & Company fin supplying the Mexican government with over ss.000.000 only q few weeks ago.
 The bankers were well aware that the United States government did not look with favor upon the Huerta ad- ministration, and that to furnish American money to neighboring nation not on friendly terms with us was an net calculated to displeasc the government.
 It Is pointed out that when the Ger man and French governments desire bankers not to handle foreign loan their wishes are scrupulously re- spected.
 The temptation of making large profits, however. ovcrcame the pa triotism of the Morgan interests. It is charged.
 This important subject is expected to be brought up In congress. and J. P. Morgan X Co. may he called upon for m explanation of their ac- ton.
