not show his craftsmanship. Did you
notice Bailey few weeks ago when
he lost to Kramer? Bill even waited
until Kramer made the tour of honor
and went up to him like good loser

same was done by Rutt. But when
Kramer lost to Goullet he walked
away sore. Now, do you think a

Says Manager Weber, says he:
j. p. NJ:
The article that appeared in your
columns recently over the signature
of Robert McNish. in which he
claimed that Manager Charles
Weber padded his box score, is all a
farce. McNish umpired the morning
game for the Chester Athletics, but
his eye was so bad that he was un-
able to see how many errors and
hits were made. McNish then played
in the afternoon on the team of the
Oriental A. c., and Manager Weber's
Vailsburg Tigers trimmed the ORR
entails by the score of to l. Be
cause the team was beaten, McNish
got very sore head. Manager
Weber would like McNish to produce
his Sufficient number of spec
tators," and before them Weber will
produce his score book of the game.
While Weber does not keep the score
for his team, he has a competent
man to do so. Yours in sport,
CHARLES ]. WEBER,
Manager Vailsburg Tigers.
