A few days before he left Chicago
Murphy announced that seven or
eight Cubs would be shorn from the
payroll before the flag dropped for
the start of the next pennant race.
No names we're mentioned, but the
Cub owners language gave rise to
the belief that the men to depart
would be veterans. He said. he want
ed to rebuild his club with young
men in the place of several oldsters
now in harness, with the idea of get
ting speed and a machine that would
last through several campaigns.
Bresnahan is not youngster, and
his playing days are numbered. If he
is kept he will be used solely to tutor
the young pitchers now with the.
team or to come. If Murphy is will
ing to pay 81, 800 year for a teacher
Bresnahan will stay right here on
the West Side. But ifC. Webb thinks
that is too much coin to pay for an
instructor Bresnahan will go. 1t is
very simple. oh, yes, very simple,
but what's the answer?
Archer will remain the first catch
er of the Cubs as long as he main
tains his present gait. He is only
thirty years old and should be good
for several more seasons. It is true
the old snap is not there in his throw
to catch men straying off bases, but
he outguesses the enemy often
enough on this play to make him
deadly on defense.
Murphy wants young catchers who
Will gradually sift into Archer's shoes.
1t is better for him to begin making
over his backstopping staff now than
to wait until Archer breaks down,
like the weIl-known one boss shay.

MY Mending Basket.


1t is made of the stoutest of willow;
It is deep and capacious and wide;
Yet the Gulf stream that flows through its
borders
Seems always to stand at food tide.
And the garments lie heaped on each other;
look at them often and sigh,
Shall ever be able to graphic
With q pile that has grown two feet htghs
There's a top layer, always, Of stockings;
These arrive and depart every day;
button"
Also leave without any delay.
But, All, undo meath there are strata,
Buried deep as the earth's eocene;
Things put there the first of the autumn,
Still there when the trees have grown
green!
There are things to be ripped and made over;
There are things that gave out in their
prime;
There are intricate tasks--all awaiting
One magical hour of spare time.
Win it conner Shall 1 ever possess it?
start with fresh hope every day.
Like q will-o'-the- wisp it ailures me;
Like a will-o'-the- wisp fades away.
For the basket has never been empty,
During all of its burdened career,
But once, for a few fieeting moments
When the baby upset 1t, last year.

Wanted-Ieaders.

The biggest thing In a country dis
trict, or In any district. is not huge
crops or large factories, but good men.
There are great tracts of this coun-
try that are down at the heels for want
of public spirited men. Farms are de-
serted. fences are broken down, roads
are poor. people are unambitious, social
life Is dead. because there is not man
In the community that will stand I'D
and lead.
And it's easy to lead, although it calls
for patience. A single public. spirited
individual can change the whole face
of the land.
He can begin by starting a Sunday
school. for In such districts one is rare
~ found. He can establish a preach
ing service occasionally. He can or
ganize Christian Endeavor society.
He can start a corn club If be lives
among farmers that raise corn. He can
enlist the whole neighborhood to give
days work to beautify the school
property and grounds He can organ
he neighborhood picnics. And by the
time he has done half of this he will
find himself surrounded by others that
are eager to help and sugges. new
things to do.
There are hundreds of Christian En-
deavorers, living In outlying districts.
