JOSHUA DEVORE, THE MIDGET
 OUTFTEIDER, 26 THIS WEEK

Joshua Devore, the midget of base balls big show, and one of the clever est little tiIlers of the outer garden in the business, will celebrate his twen- ty-sixth birthday during the present week, Josh having been born in Mur- of November, 1887. After being a star of the New York Giants for four and a half seasons, Josh was traded to Cincinnati last Summer in a deal by which New York acquired Arthur F'romme. Josh didn't stay long in Zealand, but was sold to Philade lphia The little fellows eyes went bad while playing in the sunfeId, and George Burns, with a fresh pair of lamps, came along to supp1ant Josh in the affections of MT. McGraw.
 The '@Terre Haute Terror,'' Josh is sometimes known, began playing professional ball away down South in the land of cotton, or ito be precise, with Meridian, and a little over a, year later he was sold to the Giants. The little fellow wasn't quite ripe, and he spent the season of 1908 with Newark, N. J. In 1909 he was recalled by the Giants, and developed rapidly into a star outfelder and pinch hitter. In 1910 he took part in 130 games with a batting average of BOA, making ninety-two runs and pilfering forty three bases. In 1911 he was speedier than ever, but hzs gEatGng fell off 9 little, and in 1912 he hit only ..255. The blazing sun of left field began to put his optics on the blink. Devore was a luminous star in two world S series.
 In stature Devore is one of the smallest outfie1ders in baseball, and also one of the speediest. He can go around the bases like a streak of greased lightning, and in the little matter Of swiping a sack he has few superiors.
 Devore was very popular with the fans of New York, and his passing from the Giant lineup was a matter of general regret. A lot of fans pre- dict that McGraw will yet be sorry that he parted with Devore, and the fact that Cincinnati sol dhim adds color to this view.

bers today than at any time since
the period OF intense heat set in
nearly n week ago. Cities and towns
over the three states and especially
In Kansas are harrassed for want OF

In their water by freight. In others
low wells have caused disease.
Reports of burnt crops coming

ity OF laying by winter feed for

Mexican Plan
No Opposition
LIND WILL BE RECEIVED AS PRI-
vATE TRAVELLER WITHOUT
INCIDENT

VERA CRUZ. Mex. Aug. 9.-Not
the slightest opposition was planned
by the port authorities here to the
landing Of John Lind. who was eX-
pected to arrive on board the battle
ship New Hampshire about noon to-
day. Awaiting MIR. Lind's arrival
were the American consul. Vim. W.
Canada and DR.. VIM. Bayard Hale.
personal representatives OF Prcsi-
dent Wilson. who arrived herd this
morning from the Mexican capital.
1t was expected that the Mexican
military commander of Vera Cruz
would meet Mr.. Lind unofiicially in
cidental to the exchange of visits OF
courtesy between him and the cap
tain OF the New Hampshire. The at.
titude OF the authorities here is tax q.
en- generally as n reflection of what
may be expected at the Mexican cap
ital. They regard Mr.. Lind simply
as. private traveller. The public
discusses his coming languidly with
no indication of resentment.
