In Kentucky there is the little town
of Dayton, and in that little town
lives the coolest left-handed pitcher
that ever threw a baseball-Jesse
Tannehill
Like the majority of left-handersr
Tannehill did not remain long in
the big leagues. In this respect the
men who throw from the right side
have it on their brethren of the box.
But while he was ''up there Tame

played, whether on million-dollaT
fields or corner lots.
Tannehill, born in 1875, declares he
never took up the national game, but
that it took him up when he played
for the Cincinnati Shamrocks, an
amateur team.
Jesse tried his hand and arm as
professional for the first time in 1894,
with Cincinnati, but the men who
passed judgment upon him decided
he needed seasoning, and he was sent
to Richmond, Va, where he played
In 1866.
In 1897 Pittsburgh bought the
black-haired left-hander, and he per-
formed yeoman service until 1907,

American League The next season
he Joined the Boston team, led by
Jimmy Collins, and he remained with
that great combination until 1908,
when the cunning began to leave his
arm.
1t was in 1908 that Tannehill made
his last effort, with Washington. But
he could not come back, and in his
own words he was canned to the
bushes'-which will probably be con-
sidered a slam by American Associa-
ton fans, as it was to Minneapolis

Many fans believed Tannehill was
lazy when in his prime, but he was
not. He was methodieal. moved about
slowly and was more deliberate with
men on the bases than when he had
the edge The greater the danger the
better he pitched.
Baseball has seen few pitchers who
could hit like Tannehill. Often he
was sent up in a pinch by Fred
Clarke, the Pittsburgh manager, and
often rewarded the great leaders
faith with a ringing hit. He batted
and fielded as he pitched-slowly and
methodically.

Kid Mueller has 'gone and done
it, Bone what? Quit baseball for
good. A dispatch from Egg Harbor,
n. j.. says the former Tiger finger
has decided to go into the coal and
wood business with his father, and
he will not play with the Toronto
club next season. Mueller wanted
to stay in baseball long enough to
play in a championship team. At
that rate it will be costly for Kelley
and Mccartney to win any more pen
nants.

says Larry Sutton. will be between
four teams-Newark, Rochester, Bal

chick Lathers, who made a favor
able impression on International
League fans by his work at the first

position in Detroit which he does not
care to jeopardize by playing base
ball: Bill Donovan intended to use
Lathers in the Providence outfeld
