Johnny Euers May be One
of Worlds Series Factors

Life to Johnny Evers is just one
worlds series after another.
There are few players who have
shared in the windfall of golden sheck-
els that rewards the winners of the
major leagues each fall as often as the
little Trojan, and fewer still who will
have reaped such a harvest as many
times as he if the Braves capture the
National league flag, as now seems pro-
bable.
The fortunate players who will have
shared in five worlds series can be
counted on the fingers of one hand,
and presuming that the Braves and
Athletics will fight it out will include
besides Evers, the veteran Eddie
Plank, Chief Bender and George Davis
of the Mackmen. Evers, though he go.
his share of the money won by the
Cubs in the 1910 Cubs-Athletic series,
did not actually play, illness forcing
him to remain inactive.
Evers, however, is likely to enjoy the
distinction much more than any of the
others, for it will be a great satisfac-
ton for Johnny to know that when C.
Webb Murphy fired him as the Cub
manager he incidentally boosted him
into another worlds series, as we'll as
the highest salary paid any player In
the big leagues. 1t is estimated that
Evers will earn this season close to
$40 900, while the most money he could
possibly have drawn as manager of the
Cubs is $4,000.
When Evers signed a contract with
the Boston club last winter, he Was
paid, it was said, $4,000 for his sigma
ture. In addition to this the Boston
club assumer his Chicago contract,
which called for an annual salary of
$40 900 and a provision whereby ne
was to receive bonus of $4,000 If the
team won the pennant.
1t also required a balm Of $4,000 to
soothe Johnny's feelings when Swee-
ney and Perdue were turned over to
Murphy in exchange for his services
for he was evry bitter against the Cda
Americus times-recorder. [volume] (Americus, Ga.) 1891-current, 1914-09-27

boss for having summArjly deposed
him, and at first baked on joining the
Braves if Murphy was to receive am
thing for him. So, whether Johnny
figures in the worlds series prize or
not, it is certain that he will earn more
this season than he has in any year
during his long career on the diamond.
Twelve Years Work.
When Evefs puts aside his glove fo,
the season he will have completed y
years work in the big league and his
thirteenth year on the professional dia-
mond. He made his big league debut in
Chicago in 1903. 1t was in Cub uni
form that he rose from the lowliest
busher to one of the greatest stars IF
the game. Chicago welcomed him as
lean, awkward lad from the Troy
club of the New York state league, raw

ice COMPANY TO MAINTAIN
SCHEDULE Of PRICES
EheH Though the Only One
In The Field

I At a recent meeting of the Chamber
of Commerce, a proposition was sub
mitted, wherein it was suggested that
an amount of money be subscribed by
citizens which would insure the con-
tinued operation of the plant of the
Americas Ice & Coal Co., to the end of
preventing a possible monopoly, in
which the plant of the Atlantic Ice &
Coal Corporation would be the bene-
ficiary.
The suggestion was made that under
such conditions, Americas ice consum-
ers might have to pay an advanced
price for ice over the present sched-
ule. The action of the Chamber OF
Commerce was referred to the Atlanta
office of the Atlantic Ice & Coal Cor
poration.
There came yesterday an imms
diate reply by wire to Manager George
T. Adams, in which his company au-
thorizes him to contract with any
consumer in Americas to deliver to
him ice, as desired, during period Of
two years, at the prices now prevail
irg. And should there be decline III
prices in the interim, the consumer
will be allowed the advantage of such
decline.
This seems certainly fair propo
sition, and would indicate spirit of
perfect fairness upon the part of tae
Atlantic Ice G Coal Corporation,
which modern $4,000 investment in
its Americas plant, and has rendered
a most excellent and satisfactory SER
vice during it's two years in the local
| field.
Americus times-recorder. [volume] (Americus, Ga.) 1891-current, 1914-09-27

boned and gawky, whose face and
build bespoke anything but the embryo
big Lacquer.
1t was not long, however, before the
Troy busher stood out prominently as
a player of talent. Year by year he ac-
quired more of the polish that stamps
the finished player, and after four
years of service had become a part of
the greatest baseball machine in th :
history of the pastime.
1t was in the next three years, when
Frank Chances famous Cubs swept ev-
erything before them, that Evers
reached the height of his career. 1t
was during those days that Johnny's
feats at second base gained for him the
title of keystone King" and the rep
utation of being the brainest ball play
er in the game.
Evers helped the Cubs win four ped
nants in 1906, 1907, 1908 and 1910. He
participated in only three of the
worlds series, for it was after the
Americus times-recorder. [volume] (Americus, Ga.) 1891-current, 1914-09-27

But through all the dark days the
little Trojan has proved himself one os
the gamest players in the land, for re
spite the burden of troubl he has play
ed brilliant game, 1,
1t cost Owner Gaffney of the Braves,
tidy sum to get Evers, but he has
been well repaid, for on other individ-
ual player has done more toward maxi
ing the great winning streak of the
Hubites possible than the little second
haseman.
Nor has he outlived his usefulness ON
the ball field.
Johnny may not be as nimble AMI
spry as in the days of the Cub machine
but he can still hold his own with the
best second basemen in the league.
and can think as quickly as ever.
Although old in service he is stilI
young in years when compared to other
veterans of the game. He was born
ir Troy in 1888, and celebrated hts
thirty-frst birthday on July 81.
