CHARITY HOME NEEDS AID
MONEY, CLOTHES AND OTHER
CONTRIBUTIONS BADLY NEED
ED FOR CHARITABLE WORK.

After %weathering the winter on the
amount donated by Il few liberal
hearted citizens several months ago. the
Good Samaritan Home finds itself very
much in need of assistance Just now. in
order to continue the good work which
it has been doing for the needy and af-
flicted in our midst. While money is
the most pressing need, clothing is also
needed for men. There are several old
men who are, sick and unable to work,
who are being provided for by the Home.
1t costs 4 great deal to furnish these
poor creatures with food. shelter, medi-
cal attention and medicines, and it is
beyong the slender means of the Home
to provide clothing for them.
Several additional rooms have been
rented for the use of the hospital. and
the ladies are greatly in need Of assist
ance in furnishing these rooms. ESpcc-
tally do they need another bed, mattress
es and bed clothes, besides chairs. 4
wardrobe is also badly needed. The ladies
hope that some charitably disposed per
sons may be willing to assist them with
donations of the needed articles. and
especially with the ever-needcd money.
There could be no more gracious Easter
Offering made than for such a purpose.

WHY MULLIN WAS BOUGHT.
Griffith Secures Him to Beat Boston
 and Athletics.

Give me Foster back in a week or two,let one more pitcher come through and I'll win that penn2nt, beating the Athletics to it.'' This is the manner in which Clark Griffith, the foxy man ager of Washington, s:zes up the pen nant situation in the American league This was before he saw Cleveland, and now he admits that the Maps will have to be reckoned with. T want one more tWirler," he continued, for have the speed, my boys can hit and every man on the team is a classy ball play CT, Johnson, Groom and Hughes are going in good shape. and if George Mullin does the work I think that he will the old man won't be far away from the pennant in October"
 Griffith secured Mullin for one pur- pose. IL was a slick move on the part of the old Fox Here's the real reason why MulIin was bought by the Ma tionals. He has always been effective against Boston and Philadelphia, and Griff wants him to work with Johnson to down these two strongest contend CTS in the east 'Mullin is tickled to death at the change of affairs that has brought him to Washington.
 I'm right down to shape" he de- clared, "and I'm in better condition than I have ben for some time. I was overworiIad this spring, got down to weight too quickly, and the result is that I was in pretty poor condition. But I'm all right now and I feel that can still go out and beat a few of 'em vet I'm glad to get away from De- troit although the people there always treated me O. K. But there are certain conditions on that club that aren't of the best, but I'm not going to say what they are Personally I feel better away from there and I'm sure glad that I'm with Griffith. And, believe me, I'll deliver"

REFUGE FOR BALL PLAYERS.
When Their Days of Usefulness Are Ended They Generally do Scouting or Join the Ranks of Umpires.

When veteran ball players serve their usefulness there are just two haVehs of refuge for them. One is the position of scout and the other is that of umpire. Provided he has been suc- cessful as a ball player. he can make good in either capacity, his wide expe- rience being of great service in either undertaking. Three of the veterans who have seen their best days on the diamond-Theodore Rreitenstein, Will liam Hart and Win Kellum-Were last year on the umpiring staff of the Southern league. Tn the umpirical blue Breitenstein and Hart were quite successful, while Kellum was lacking in backbone to show anything like good work. His knowledge of the game was all right, but his decisions in close cases lacked in stamina, the "umps" being a bit prejudiced by cer- tain occurrences.
 Breitenstein, Hart and Kellum began pitching ball in the young days of the league, and grew up with it. They had served to see many stars come and go, yet they continued like the famous brook The main cause for their long service was the good condition in which they kept themselves. All real ized that the game was their livelihood and they took care of themselves ac- cordingly Many players of the pres ent day believe the managers are try ing to deprive them of something they are entitled to when crders are issued prohibiting disssipatiCn, when if they had but sense enough to know,it means their own salvation.
 Bill Hart began pitching ball as ear Iy as 1886, and he served right up to last year. Breitenstein, too, served quite a career, during which he play ed with some of the most famous or ganization that ever won a ball game. KelEum probably did not attain so much fame as his two partners, yet he was a good hurler in his day and his insight into the finer points of the game was excellent. Last season was the debutante work of the three ex- hurlars, and with the advantage of thls training they will be better prepared to do good work their next season out Half the job in umpiring is getting next to just how you must control cer- tain players, and not half so much in the decisions that are made. some players will kick on any decision, no mater whether it is right or wrong, and to satisfy this class it takes certain treatment which umplres have to take time to learn.
