To Prevent TarnIshing Of Silver

A simple and admirable method Of

sists in rubbing the articles with al

been dissolved. A very delicate pro-

the object is again required. The

INCIDENTS OF THE DIAMOND.
Miller Huegins Tells Stories. of Base
 ball Doinas.

Recently when asked the aueerest plays he ever saw on 8 ball field. Man aSer Miller fIuggins of the Cardinals replied: Two instances of quick thinking on the spur of the moment occur to me as being well above the average Certainly each played an i'm portant part in the game. Last year St. Louis, in game with Chicago had a man on second and another on third. with only one out. A St. Louis batsTnan hit 8 fly to Jimmy Sheckard Sheckard got all ready to throw the ball to the home plate anticipating s. ore. But just as Sheckard drew back his arm to throw, he saw that the man on third did not leave the bag, but that the man on second, expecting that the player ahead of him would try to score, had started from second to third. Quick as q flash. Sheckard with the same motion wheeled and let the ball drive to second, where he got his man by two feet
 'eThe second play was one in which I was mixed up myself. Two of our St. Louis players were on first and second bases, with no one out, The man on second base was 2 slow runner. I was at bat and IL was my intention to sac rifice along the third base line. We were playing against Pittsburg, and as soon as the pitcher pitched the ball he started for the third base line, and knew he hoped to get the hall and
 
 saw what was coming and had just time to shift the position of my bat and bunt the ball right down the lane to the pitchers box. As the pitcher mad left his position the bunt went for q single, and with the bases filled, we scored enough runs to win the game

Once while playing in Cincinnati against New York with Jo1lnstone- as umpire, it having rained during all the game, Dummy Taylor put on a large pair of rubber boots and went out on the line to coach Being a deaf mute and not paying any attention to John stone, it caused lot of excitement and was rather funny

question appears to be the dominant one just now. When Frank Farrell en- gagged Frank Chance as manager OF the Yankees at yearly wage estimat- ed to be S2e, 900 the vexing problem seemed to have been solved. But the irrepressib1e Charlie Murphy of the Cubs put his refund figure on the baseball horizon as a disputant of the Chance assertion. Murphy says that Johnny Evers is going to be the king pin salary artist Little Johnny is going to get so much money that Murphy doesn't really like to tell anyone just what the amount is.
 Only one string is tied to Evers' an nuaI stipend. That is the Cubs must finish in first. second or third place. With that condition carried out, he will receive in addition to a stipulated amount a percentage of the earnings and 8 bonus, the latter dependinng on what position the club occupies at the end of the season. High managerial salaries promise to be an important feature of the baseball season. The winter has brought about many inn portant changes in the baseball firma- ment, with six of the major league clubs being placed in the hands of new leaders. Discomfort in many cities has compelled changes in the manage ment of the clubs, and in the general shifting about the men selected to as- sune charge have been in position to dictate terms under which they would attach signatures to contracts.

 Waddel1. Cobb seemed dead willing. So the next morning they got up bright and early and we found them eating breakfast. Before they set out for the happy hunting grounds we loaded Ty down with a big bunch of shells a heavy shotgun, some decoys and 8 package containing their lunch.
 It made mighty heavy load, but Cobb said nothing. He is a dead game fellow, all right. Now if there's any thing that Rube likes better than talk ing long walks after ducks or turkey I'd like to know it. Rube set the pace for Cobb and 1t was 8 fast one The spot he had selected for the shoot was several miles from the farm and be- fore they got half way there Cobb be- gan to get tired. You see he hasn't had an overly amount of exercise this winter and the heavy load and fast pace told on him. He was pretty near petered out when they got to the shooting grounds. Wadde1I says Ty threw the load on the ground anu sat down with a groan.

FEW STARS ON THE BLACKLIST
Baseball Ineligible Are Mostly Busi Leaguers-"Paddy" Green Younges In Majors.

There are today in the United States an environs some 25 men to whom the ! doors, windows, fire escapes and every other mode of ingress to organized l baseball, save perhaps the turnstiles ] are barred Organized baseball rare- 1 ly, if ever, bars anybody from the l pay-as-you- enter opening. Some of | these 25 are young and others are not i so young as they used to be, but they 1 are kin in a common cause-they are | the brothers of the blacklist. True organized baseball softens the aspeE- ] ities of the term by calling 1t the ] ineligible list. but 1t is none the less
 a blacklist, and those entered thereon , aer debarred from earning a living in
 any league under the Jurisdiction of the baseball powers. as effectually as if they were in jail. It doesn't make a lot of difference at that, because 1t
 appears that most of those blacklisted
 or declared ineligible are men who
 have either passed their period of
 baseball usefulness or never displayed
 enough talent to get anybody wildly
 onstrated time and again that any real
 star who gets in bad with organized baseball can easily secure reinstate-
 nlent.
 Every club in the National league
 has one or more on the ineligible list,
 but only three clubs in the American
 have put up the bars on players, and
 the total in the younger league Is but T declared one, E. Elliott. young field CT, ineligible. while the Giants have posted Ed Hendricks, M. c. Pfyl, Err nest G. Shore and W. A. Torrey. Hen dricks is a huge left handler, who was dug up at Benton Hafbor, Mich, by Crazy Schmidt, and was tried out by the Giants in Marlin in 1910. He. showed some promise, but when Mo
 Graw tried to send him to Newark he Ieaped out of organized bali and has since been "itching in senf-professfon- al company around his home town.
 Monte Pfy1 has almost been forgot he hoped to the California outlaws, and it has been some time since he has been regarded as a serviceab1e ball player, especially for a big league club. Young Shore is a cadaverous youth who came to the Giants last season from a North Carolina college. He gained distinction for being pound ed for 10 runs in one inning in game at. Boston. McGraw intended sending Shore to Indianapolis for de- velopment but the young youth got homesick and is now back home. Tor rey has been on the Giant ineligible list for several years. He is young ster who was token South one year, but got sick with typhoid and has never returned to organized baseball.
 The Boston Nationals have black listed ". D. Jones. Barney Joy. and Fuller Thompson. The latter is a young pitcher who was once with the New York Nationals a short time. Joy is "a Kanal1a from Honolulu, who created a sensation on the Pacific coast, but who would never report to Boston when he was bought. He is now in Honolulu.

 The market situation was somewhat less favorable. Outbreak of the revo- ! lution in Mexico led to some settling by the trading element of stocks of corporations operating in the south er1y republic. National Railways of Mexico first preferred broke over four
 points. Another development which
 favored the bears was the tightening
 of money rates Call money climbed
 to four per cent, the highest rate since the first week of the year. While there was no quotabIe change in time money rates, the tone was apprecia- bly, hrnner.
 Foreign exchange rates were easier. Such change in the money market was foreshadowed by the poor bank statement of Saturday which showed that the surplus reserve had been vir- tually cut in two. The foreign fnan- cial situation and the probability of further exports of gold also are of direct influence on the money market today. A tightening of rates, however, is of less serious concern to stock market operators than would be tfe case were speculation on large scale. On the present basis requirements to finance speculation are comparatively small.
 The steel corporation reported a de- crease of nearly 1o5,000 tons in un- filled orders at the end of January. the first shrinkage since last March. The showing was in keeping with general expectations and as the orders in hand are sufficient it is estimated, to keep the mills busy for eight months, the decline was hardly considered of serious moment

FOOTBALL AT COLUMBIA. They May Be Permitted to Revise tn. Sport at Blue and White University.

Down at dear old Columbia they're
 getting all excited over a report that
 the university will again be represent

 of the favorite athletic exercises at Columbia has been the aboIishing of football. but President Nicholas Mur- ray Butler is said to have become so impressed by the fact that there was not fatality among the colleges last season that he is willing to give the reformed game a chance.
 Columbia has done away with foot ball twice in the history of the game. The last blue and white football epoch saw some stirring doings in the Morn ized in the fall of 1901. George Eos ter Sanford of Yale was the coach and one Billy Mitchell was the manager. Mitchell saw to it that Columbia had the material for a real team. After ward he was fired from college for having filled the eleven with profes- Sionals-Somebody haG to be the goat but while that team was in action 1t was a lively organiizzation If m9fn- ory serves correctly, it's membership included no less than five former var sity captains from other colleges.
 Yale was defeated in impressive fashion, but the next week Columbia was overwhelmed 27 to by Cornell. itself by defeating Princeton. and the next season after that Pennsylyania's scalp was added to the collection. Co., lumbia never did succeed in beating Harvard and Cornell was hard nut for her to crack, but the Ithacans were finally overcome. And while football was booming the blue and white produced some truly renarka- ole players, such as Harold Weeks and Sheriff Morley of the backfeId; Wrig4.t, the center; the Van Hoeven- berg, end. and others.
