HOW TUNES ARE BUILT

The mastery of music never just
came naturally to any human being.
The world has never known more
Industrious worker than the illustri-
Gus Franz Schubert Yet, il to any
one in the world music came natural
ly' it seemed tn come so to him.
When the school principle asked his
harmony teacher how young Franz
Schubert was progressing, the teach
er said: HE is a wonder. Wheney-
er / explain anything new to him, he
always seems already to know it. He
must have received his knowledge
straight from heaven" Yet, in spite
of such superb gifts. there was never
harder worker than he. And don't
you think that we, with our lesser
gifts, should follow his example? II

BY cHRIsTY MATHEwsoN.

Among this seasons unexpected re
yersals of form-and there have beer
many--is that of Walter Johnson, the
great Washington pitcher. Under
stand, / do not oretend to say thai
johnson is pitching poorly even now
but his record shows that he has al
ready lost more games this season
than he did all last year. He may
have got some tough breaks and pool
support, as he has. He also has drop
ped several contests In succession, ar
almost unheard Of thing for the Wash
ington wonder up to this time. What
Is the cause Of this slump?
Much inside gossip floats around
both big leagues when ball players
get together, and certain information
has reached me which seems to ex
plain the comparatively poor showing
johnson has made recently. do not
care to divulge my source OF informa'
ton, since 1t might lay him open to
some criticism, as he is close to the
Washington club. =
Speed Johnson's Asset. sis !
Ever since Johnson started to pitch
in the big leagues his great ability
has been due to his wonderful speed,
and up to this year he had depended
almost entirely on a fast ball when in
the box. Batters naturally knew that
Johnson was going to use fast che
when they faced him, but even realiz.
ing what was coming did them little
good before that terrific speed of his.
As | got the story, Clarke Griffith
contracted the notion early last spring
by using so much speed constantly,
and that he could fool the batters this
year by pitching curves and thus save
his wing. Therefore Griffith directed
johnson to cross the hitters by using
his curve ball regularly and depending
on his fast one only on occasions. 1t
used to be the other way around,
johnson would use his fast one right
through and only throw up curve
once in a while TO cross the hitter il
he seemed to be up there set for a fast
one. But &Griff.s is@a great theofist
when II comes to pitchers.
have had several American leag.
uers who have faced Walter this year
tell me that he is losing his speed,
even when he tries to shoot that fast
one across in .pinches.
"He hasn't got the old jump ball
now declared an American leaguer
to me recently. He may get il
back. but he has been curveLballing
himself to death an year. never
saw him use so many curves in a
season before as he did in one game
against us II was curve after curve. .
Changed Form Hurts Arm.
Many a pitcher who has tried to
change his form has hurt his efficien-
CIV very materially by IL, and believe
this is what johnson will do If he con.
tinues to throw curves To my mind
1t is a bigger strain on the wrist aud

WALTER JOHNSON'S slump
EXPLAINED BY MATHEWSON

arm to use curve than the fast one
because you've got to keep giving that
wrist the old twist each time. and the
constant use of the curve ball reduces
a mans speed. A man is generally
either natural curve ball pitcher OF
a fast ball pitcher, and Johnson is
distinctly the latter. What If the bat
tiers did know when he was going to
throw his fast one? They could no,
hit it. As Germany" Schaefer said
about Walters speedy one:
you can't hit what you don't see.'
And Walter used to work in his
curve only just often enough to keep
the. batter from setting himself for
the fast ball. Johnson is not old
enough in the game yet to begin to
lose his speed from plain wear and
tear, and 1t would be time enough for
him to take up steady curve ball
pitching then. l believe he has made
mistake IL he has been curving them
constantly all year
Duhue Uses Slow Balls
flake a man like Dubuc of Detroit.
He Is slow ball pitcher, one of the
4
hear. He developed that slow ball in
the, minors after he had had chance
with the Cincinnati Reds several sea-
sons ago and had been sent back to
the bushes. All batters know that
Dubuc is going to use that slow one,
but he would be crazy to figure that
he Gould cross them by switching to
a steady diet of fast ones. In the
first place, his fast ball would not be
effective. Such hitter as Frank
Baker breaks his back on the slow
ones. Suppose the batters did know
Johnson was depending on speed al
most, entirely. They could no. hit it.
while they are evidently beating him
on, his curve ball pitching. Also, he
is losing some prestige every time he
drops a game now, because the bat
teFsg are beginning to believe they
can hit him, and he has not the In
dian sign on the clubs he used to
carry. Formerly johnson could throw
his glove into the box and his game
wenldvbe practically won. The oppos-
ing manager would begin to figure
out what pitcher he could best sacri-
flee against the big Washington right
handler. He had them all scared,
which was the edge. He cannot af-
ford to lose that old prestige.
When the spitball was all the craze
after il was first discovered several
good pitchers went to work to develop
one. feeling that they would need it
to last in the big leagues. The splitter
is wearing on the arm, one of the
hardest of all deliveries to throw, be-
cause of the peculiar way in which it
must be 1oated up to the batter
without any spin to the ball Many
good twirling hurt their arms attempt
ing to switch and use 1t and spoiled
their effectiveness with their other
styles of delivery. / refused to try
the spitball after had pitched few

Discusses the FederaIs.
The Federal league, as a rule, has
been playing to small crowds all
around its circuit so far this year, II
the newspaper reports see are to be
believed. Many of the players who
jumped from organized baseball to
the Federals have been showing be.

ball in the outlaw league cannot be

mer and also during his, years with
the Cubs, both in fielding and hitting.
This may be due partly to the fact
that Tinker has spent a lot of time
around chasing ball players to sign
contracts and has been very busy
with the organization OF the league
He has had many things on his mind
besides actually managing and play.
ing the game. But believe the small
crowds have had good deal to do
with the poor showing of the older
stars In the new league. No real big
Lacquer can play as good ball to empty
seats as to crowded stands.
Fans frequently wonder why the
best games are the ones on Saturdays
and holidays, when the crowds are
biggest, The attendance makes the
contest and the bowling fans spur the
players on to greater efforts and more
brilliant work. Therefore, when the
Federal league teams are playing to
crowds of 500, 1t is only natural that
they should display poorer form. Tho
best big leaguers are the money play
ers-and all stars are money players

FIRST SESSION Of
PEACE PARLEY IN
MEXICO BEGINS
Representatives of Carranza
and Villa Meet in ZaCateCaS
First Chief Willing to Re-
sign to Settle Difficulty.

MEXICO CITY. Sept 30.-The first
session Of the peace parley between
Representatives of Gen. Carranza and
Gen. villa is under way IN -zacatecas,
according to telegram from that
city. Gen. Carranza's representatives
are Gen. Obregon, Gen. C0sa. Gen.
Trevino. Eduardo Hay and santos
Coy while the delegates representing
the leaders of the division of the north
are Euegenio Beneavides, Ysbell Ro-
bles and Col. Ceniceros.
1t is the object of the rival chiefs
delegates TO maintain the statu quo
until the real peace convention is held
in this city next month.
Gen. Carranza's attitude is ex-
pressed in a message which was
placed before Villas generals in
Zacatecas today. In part it says
"If the chiefs accept my resigna-
ton when it is rendered TO them at
the convention in the capital 1 will
gladly retire to private life with the
consciousness of duty we'll done. But
if my resignation is not accepted I
will fight the present reaction with
the same energy and firmness that l
fought the usurpatiOn of Huerta."
Want Peoples Voice.
In speaking of the approaching con-
ference Gen. CarranZa said:
1--WE want il 10 be truly representa-
tive of the people that il might be
said afterwards that the result of the
convention is the voice of the people
in Mexico. If when the convention is
assembled IL is found that all the
chiefs summoned have not come, we
will Immediately summon proxies so
that all sections will have representa-
ton
one thing is certain; Carranza will
not stand by and see Villa swept into
power If he can prevent it. The first
chief believes that he should resign,
Villa should relinquish the leadership
Of the division of the north. There is
no news coming 10 the war depart
ment of operations north of the cap
ital and II is believed that an armis-
tice practically exists pending the re-
suit of the parley in Zacatecas.
