refrain from tennis competition for

ROYALS HAVE STAR
IN JACK HOLSTE|N
Young First=Sacker Shifted to
Middle Bag Playing
Cleverly.

One of The most promising young
players exhibited here this season by
any visiting club is young Jack Hal
stein, second-sacker of the Montreal
Royals. Originally Halstein held down
the initial sack and he was drafted as
an understudy for Hal Chase by the
chicago White Sox for that purpose.
Sammy Lichtenhein, owner of the
Royals, however succeeded in part
ing Halstein from Comiskey, who is
a close friend of the talkative Mon
treal magnata.
Manager Dan Howley shifted Hal
stein to second base, and though he
has played only a few games ct thai
lag he has shown unusual skill in
fielding the position. His stop of a
hard bounder from Eddie thinner
mans bat in the first game yesterday
was one that vii, long be remembered
by the fans who saw the play. Hal
stein dashed over toward first base
and scooped up the ball with his back
to the grandstand. He had to turn
completely around to throw to Flynn,
but he made the play perfectly. Had
the hit gone through, Callahan would
have scored Newark's first run.

The only visitor who could do any
thing with Curtis was Mr.. Jack Flynn
once upon a time a member Of Joe
Kelley's champions Of 1907, If you can
remember that far back. Flynn
slammed the ball for a single and a
triple, and the fact that he did not get
another three sacker can be attributed
to a swell cherry picking act given
by Leo Witter in right field. Newark
sewed the game up in the fourth and
fifth innings, scoring five runs in
these rounds. Madden was a cinch
for the Tigers to steal on, and one
of his wild heaves was indirectly re-
sponsibIe for a run

The Georgia farmers objected to
the commercial system under
which they were receiving but
seven and eight cents pound
for the pork which they raised,
while they saw the ham and ba-
con of commerce retailing in
their own markets at 25 cents a
pound. They resolved to re es-
tablish the ante bellum smoke

mediately carried the resolution
into effect. Through CO opera.

profits which they make from
curing their own meats are re.
latively larger, considering the
time aud expense involved. than
those which they were receiving
from marketing hogs on the

about this profitable experiment
is that it has not been worked
