JOE TINKER is AFTER
TWO DENVER PLAYERS

The Cincinnati Reds are after Casey
Hagerman, star pitcher for Denver Of
the Western league, and incidentally
Henry Butcher OF the same team.
Manager Jack Hendricks of the
Denver team received letter from
Joe Tinker, manager Of the Reds, ask
ing him to set definite price on
both Hagerman and Butcher. This
was followed later in the day by a
telegram from August Herman, owner
of the Cincinnati club, requesting the
same information.
Manager Hendricks declined to state
the price he had put on either OF both
players, but said that he would prob
ably make flying trip from ST. Jo-
seph to Cincinnati and conclude the
deal in person with Hermann or
Tinker.
It is understood that neither player
is to be delivered until the close of
the present season.

PINCH HITTING NOT
ALWAYS PROFITABLE
Games Often Lost When
Pitcher Is Removed for
Substitute Batter.

NEW YORK, Aug. Pinch hitting
has become a mania with many base,
ball managers, The Man IN the CroWo
has seen games lost at the Polo grounds
ment of this practice. A pitcher who is
effective enough TO keep the opposing
team down TO a run or two while bis own
team is nghting hard for success is sup
planted by pinch hitter who probably
doesn't deliver. The removal OF the
pitcher to make room for the truitless
hitter Of course brings another boNman
into the game. with the frequent result
that he is ba atted heavily and the enemy
is able to walk away with victory,
How many pinch hitters can drive the
ball safely more than once In TOUR tlmes

ability? OF course, all teams do not nave

to take out pitchers almost at any stage
of the proceedings when q base hit may
produce or help to produce run.
Coupled with this mania, which staGs-
ticans say has brought about many de,
feats, is the plan to put In right handed
hitters for left-handed regulars when the
opposing team uses a left-handed pitcher.
This idea is comparatively new and some
mana gers. notably Stallings, Evers and
pahlen. say that it gets results, but otner

PROBABLE ODDS OF
BASEBALL "BOOKIES"

Following are some Of the propositions
put up to fans by bookmakers who take
bets on ball games and plays:
Even money that the winning team
makes many runs In one inning as
the loser does In all nine.
Even money that a runner does not
score after reaching third with only one
out.
score from second when he reaches there
with one out.
Three to one that an ordinary batter
does not get to first.
Two to one that Cobb, Wagner, Jack
son, Baker. Meyers and batters of that
class do not get to first In one time at
bat
Two TO one that a team does not score
in any given inning. This price some-
times goes as high as four to one, ac-
cording to the pitcher.

AbRUzz|'S FRIEND
REVEALS SECRET
Naval Associate Sheds Fur
Their Light on His Affair
With Miss Elkins.
SINCERE FRIENDSHIP
WAS THE ONLY BOND
Explains Why Marriage to Mr.. Hit
Has Turned Duke Into a Popu-
lar Hero Everywhere.

ROME, November S.-The marriage of
Miss Katherine Elkins to Billy Hit
has turned the Duke Of Abruzzi into a
popular hero everywhere. He is re-
garded as a chivalrcus knight Grant
who sacrificed life's happiness to
state duties and obligations Of rank.
A naval associate, who is the con-
fdant of the duke. said to a cor
respondent: Speaking literally. there
never was anything between Miss FL
kins and the duke except sincere
friendship, based upon mutual sympa-
thy and admiration. No kind OF en-
gagement ever existed.
Their relations remain unchanged;
in fact, the duke got the first news
Of the marriage through the news
papers The dukes policy in consid-
ering his love affairs entirely private,
and SO refusing to contradict stories
published was the cause of the entire
existed.
Appreciated the Situation.
The duke from the first knew of
the obstacles in his path, and deter
mined to make no declaration of love
until he knew the road was clear.
Because Senator Elkins refused to CO.
operate with him and because Queen
Margharita opposed the marriage on
religious grounds, all the dukes efforts
to obtain a recognition for Miss Elkins
and also the bestowal of an Italian
decoration upon Senator Elkins failed,
but throughout she appreciated the
situation, although he never spoke one
word of love. She knew daily exactly
how affairs moved.
AT their last meeting in 1912, in a
the duke motored from Venice, Miss
Elkins awaited him with Philadel-
phia friend. Not a single word was
said about love or marriage. but the
lovers understood each other. When
parting she read in the dukes face
that he had failed and was unwilling
to place her in false position, al
though his devotion to her was unal-
terable. Today they are still the best
of friends"
