MANAGER DUNN
IN old STUNT
Sells 0rloIe Stars and Then De-
veIops Winning Rockies

Baltimore, Md, Aug. Jack Dunn's
experiences In Baltimore may not he
financially satisfactory so far as 1914
is concerned, but certain 1t is that this
year seems To find his artistic star to
be in the ascendency. What is meant
by artistic is the playing side OF the
game OF baseball which, one must adj
nit, is quite an important angle OF the
sport, even in these days where the
money angle is most prominent.
When Dunn sold his entire outfield,
two OF his star pitchers, his star re-
ceiver and a third baseman-which
fact is now known from the Atlantic
to the Pacific to the shame Of the Mon
umental city-thus breaking up a team
recognized as the greatest ever en-
tered In a race for an international
league pennant; everybody scribes
and pharisees alike. said 1t was only
question OF a few weeks when the
remnant OF the Oriole machine would
begin to gently slide toward the bot
TOM Immediately the orioles dropped
three in n row to the Newark Indians,
and the pessimists gloated, but that
was the extent Of their descent for the
new Oriole team got its bearings and
forthwith began to win and has since
more than held it's own with Provi
dence, Newark and Jersey City.
II is strange how that old saying
about II is an i'll wind that brings no
one any good hobs up every once In
awhile to prove itself While Dunn
had his regular lineup there was no
chance for Davidson, Young Jack Dunn
and Murray. the Holy Cross youngster,
to break into the game. Now these
boys have their chance and each one is
improving the opportunity. They have
not broken any records, hut are show
ing so much promise that 1t is more
than likely that star or two will be
the harvest.
Dunn has picked up other likely
looking youngsters in Outfielder Car
roll, a Baltimore sand lotter: Catcher
Jimmy Kane of the same stripe, and
Burns. spitball artist from Mount St.
Joseph's college, the institution which
furnished Dunn with Dave Roth and
Bin Morrisette, also spitballers Of more

group would not surprise the natives

SHORTER DoUBLE-HEADERs.
Proposed to Limit Each Contest to
Seven Innings.

New York, Aug. why not limit
the double-header games to seven in
nings each? It's a scheme that has
been tried out in the southern leagues
with great success.
Two seven-inning games in one af-
ternoon would give the average fan
just about as much baseball as he
could comfortably absorb. 1t wouldn't
force the ballplayer to the extreme
limit OF his endurance, and, best OF
all, 1t would enable the fan to get
home in time for a warm dinner.
Cutting the double header games to
seven innings would do no one harm.
1t would do plenty OF good. Cutting
of four inings from an afternoons
baseball session would mean lessen
ing the playing period about one hour,
and, therefore, the pastime would end
before before darkness settled overt he
land.
The season of double headers is now
upon us. Every fan is keen about TAX
ing in bargain bill, but along about
the fourth or fifth inning OF the sec
ong game the exhibition becomes
monotonous. or course, the greatest

the Pirates to single hit and the

So he ranks second in this particular

Much has been penned and type

far better than they are going now, so
far as allowing hits is concerned.
In addition to the work OF Joe Benz
we find that Cicotte has been in one

Red Faber. Jim Scott held the Sena-

Federal League Player Gets In Trouble
With Government.

Chicago Aug. From the Federal
league TO the federal court. That's the
route pursued by Jack Grammar, an
outfielder, who was given a trial by the
Chifeds last spring. Jack recently
wrote a letter TO John Hughes, friend,
in Leavenworth penitentiary.
This is the life said Grammar in
his communication. Wish you were
with me-"
A few strong adjectives supplement
ed his remarks, however, and the cor
respondence was censored by the peni-
Tertiary officials, who in turn delivered
II TO the postoffice authorities. Jack
was arrested yesterday on a charge OF
sending an obscene letter through the
mail.
Grammar pleaded, when arraigned
before United states Commissioners
Lewis f. Mason, that he did not know
he was breaking the law. His bond
was fixed at $3.50 Friends furnished
this and he was released from custody
pending his trial.

Some breeders are bold enough to
castrate their own animals, still more
employ man who makes a living as
gelder, but does not pretend to be a
veterinary surgeon. The danger in
castration is in rupture.
So long as the testicles are in the
purse, and their cords are occupying
to great extent the orif1ces in the
belly the obtrusion into the scrotum
of small knuckle of intestine may
be overlooked unless a very careful
examination is made; indeed it may
then escape the intending operators
notice. if the colt has been we'll fast
ened and placed upon his back, re-
naming there for a minute or two, as
during this time the small portion of
gut will often slip back into the abdo-
men.
For this, among other reasons, an
old hand will prefer to have the ami
NAL on his side while making an ex-
animation. Some will squeeze the
larynX to make the animal cough by
way of test. If another person does
the squeezing Gas for wind patients of
adults, the castrators fingers upon
the cords of the testicles will tell him
of bulge and he will then exercise
special precautions.
1t is far better to let the colt get up
again and sacrifice the time than to
proceed without all necessary appli-
ances. Ruptured colts should never
be entrusted to gelders without ana
tomical knowledge, or not possessing
a reputation for operating upon such
cases.
The animal should be prepared by
long fasting, placed upon his back,
rendered limp by the inhalation of
chloroform. and the testicles removed

THE BEST TREATMENT FOR
ITCHING SCALPS, DANDRUFF
AND FALLING HAIR

To allay itching and irritation of the
scalp, prevent dry, thin and falling
hair, remove crusts, scales and dan
druff, and promote the growth and
beauty of the hair, the following spe-
cial treatment is most effective, agree
able and economical. On retiring,
comb the hair out straight all around,
then begin at the side and make
parting, gently rubbing Cuticura ONT
ment into the parting with bit Of
soft flannel held over the end Of the
finger. Anoint additional partings
about half an inch apart until the
whole scalp has been treated. the pur-
pose being to get the Cuticura Oint-
ment on the scalp skin rather than on
the hair. 1t is well to place light
covering over the hair to protect the
pillow from possible stain. The next
morning, shampoo with Cuticura Soap
and hot water. Shampoos alone may
be used as often as agreeable, but
once or twice a month is generally
sufficient for this special treatment
for women's hair.
