hungry band of man eaters arrived in
New York from Chicago for the purpose
of engaging in a series of ball games
with the worlds championships Giants.
The leader of the visitors had made a
number of changes in his club during
the winter and had announced himself
as one entitled to consideration in the
future when worlds champions
might be up for discussion.
Just to show him where he be
longed, manager McGraw sent in the
great Mathewson on the opening day,
and then that which happened hap

Developed "Fndeaway."
The "fadeaway' was developed as
result of Matty's determination not
to throw his arm Off He discovered
after his first season in the big league
that a batter could be fooled with
slow bali as readily as with fast one
There was never any trouble about his
fast ball. 1t was always a wonder.
He then practiced 4 slow drop curve as
one of his staple assets-and then the

No one throws this ball but Matty.
He never declines to tell anyone how
to do it. but no other pitcher has ever
mastered il. He holds the ball. as usual,
with the thumb and first two fingers,
but not tightly wedged in against the
hand. The arm comes over in an over
hand motion. The ball floats up to the
batter like a feather at about Che height
of his cap and suddenly drops like an
elevator. the catcher taking it below
his knees.
And no matter what sort of curve

as president of the Brewers. Armour,
while scout for the Cardinals, was
boosted to the Cardinal owners as pros

proposition was turned down.
That step alone cost the Cardinals
many dollars in money and points in

valuable recruits, whose services will
be needed this year.
Armour is one of the best posted

q T. LOUIS, MO, Oct 4.-One popular
theory Of the failure Of the Cardi-

In other words, the fact that the team

That this is mere moOnshine is evil
