CONSCIENCE SCORES

Clifford R. Brown Writes to City Council for Bill for Stolen Planks

The wee small voice of conscience has been making a big noise in the mind of at least one individual fOG the last three years and has finally driven him to confess to crime com mitted in 1908. The mayor and eiJy council of Bisbee has rewarded the conscience by sending it a clean bill of health The following letter, TE ceived by Mayor Williams, gives the stor of the wee small voice:
 Sir: While living in Bisbee il 1909 I helped a friend to steal several blanks that the city had used in the construction of the water tank On Opera Drive. Said blanks were neas 1g7 Opera Drive, where we lived.
 Please send me a bill for these blanks and l will send the money 60 the city. Hoping that you will forgive me in behalf of the city, Yours,
 CLIFFORD R. BROWN,
 "ElIeubeTg Depot, Y. Y
 The mayor and council considered that matter from all angles and final ly decided that it would be too diff cult 10 exactly appraise the cost O. the blanks. If they were over ap praised and a bill sent in local con cience might begin to make a noise so MT. Brown was officially forgiven and the council let it go at that.

Then he took fall out of Boston on
the latter teams grounds, and when
the Cubs returned home stopped the
Cards with ease.
He capped his steady improvement
with a weIl-pitched effort against the
Braves yesterday in the first game
of the Eastern invasion. Only two or
three times this season have the West
Siders had better twirIing to work be-
hind. Through the Boston batting
order Overall breezed, allowing five
hits, passing one and slipping the
third strike over on six. In only one
inning did the. Braves get two hits
and these did no damage. Jef did
not falter toward the end of the
game. This was a good indication
that he is ready to stand the gaff and
go the full route. He should improve
with the season, as he gets in better
physical condition.
Pitching makes all the difference in
the world in the work of the Cubs.
When the heaving is good the rest Of
the team plays up to the notch. The
men have confidence. But when the
boxwork is mediocre there is not the
same fighting spirit.
EYers, Schultz, Zimmerman, Safer
and Bridewel each swatted two hits,
Zim getting the only extra-baser,
double. The beauty Of the bingling
was the way it was punched. Once
more Al Bridwen showed he is a
deadly man in a pinch. He came UP
in the first with the paths stocked and
damned a single to right that scored
two runs. And Al does this with regu-
larity.
Hal Chase will not join the White |
Sox until Callahan and his band
reach New York Saturday. Hal says |
he has business to attend to, and also
needs the rest to bring around his
lame ankle. Fine business, as Hal is |

had not been stocked with reserve
material. Chase, under the law, had
three days to join the SUx. But laws
don't apply to stars of the Chase
type, as Hal has shown in the past.
This youngster, Ray Schalk, is one
of the most peculiar ball players that
ever broke into the business. Ray is
a great catcher, and several man
ayers have declared that in two
years he will be head and shoulders
above any receiver in the field. But
take a slant at his batting. On the
home lot he travels at an even gait,
getting his hits now and then, and
making a respectable showing with
the stick. But on the road he goes
crazy. He gets two or three bingles
in nearly every game, and they come
at the right time. Yesterday he wal
loped a double and two singles, and
only one of the blows was wasted in
the scoring line. Very often a green
player does better work on the road
than at home, as the so-called friend
ly crowds expect too much and are
ready to roast at the slightest OPEN
ing. But Schalk is not green. He
has shown his worth and is an idol
on the South Side. He can do no
wrong. Figure this batting puzzle
out for yourself. At any rate, it
shows the youngster is game, and he
fights.
Great revenge stuff yesterday.
Harry Lord tamped a triple in the
first that scored one run and he was
in position to count on Fournier's
single. Then Eddie Cicotte was
tighter than new shoe with hits to
the Red Sox. Harry and Eddie used
to draw pay from Boston.
Morris Rath seems to have benefit
ed by the benchwork he did while
Berger was performing at second
base. Before his lay off the former
