Jim Delehanty is said to have worked
a sharp trick on the Minneapolis club
to get free so that he could sign with
the Federals. He told the Cantillons
he had a chance to manage a minor
league team. and wishing to aid him in
every way they gave him his .release.
He then signed a Federal League con-
tract, something he is said to have had
in mind all the time. And yet some
players harp about the lack of principle
in magnates.

Shanks Is Star Hitter.

Howard Shanks was the star hitter of
the contest though most of the Reg
ulars seemed to take more kindly to the
pitching than on the day previous. The
first run came in the second inning on
Shanks' clean double to left and a
scratch double by Williams, which
Acosta lost in the sun. The right field

In the third inning a single by Moeller.
his steal and hits by Milan and Gandil
brought the second run. and the Reg

when Ga1dil Shanks and Mcbride hit
safely.
The Colts again had several oppor-
tunities to score, but threw them away
by careless work on the bases. They
managed to get tally in the closing
round. however. when Engel walked

Acosta drove out long fly, which al

CHARLOTTESVILLE Va, March IL.
Joe Boehling made his first appearance
of the year on the rubber this morning
and clearly demonstrated that his work
the coming season will very likely be in
keeping with his performance of 1913.
Joe pitched four innings during which
he allowed two scattered hits and no
runs He walked but one man. and dis
played splendid control for this time of
the year. Though he did not exert him
self all the way, Boehling showed that
he could cut loose when the occasion de-
manded. His performance. coming as it
did before he was expected to be ready,
was gratifying and particularly pleasing
to Manager Griffith.
The Regulars again won this morn
ing. this time by a score of 8 to 1
1t was much better played game
than the one of yesterday. The fielding
was sharper and there was a marke ed
improvement in the hitting.
The feature was a throw to the plate
by Acosta. by which he nipped run
ner. This came in the sixth inning
when. with Gandil on second, Shanks
drove a sharp single to right. The
Cuban gathered in the ball on dead
run and whipped it home, beating Gan
dill there by yards.
Joe Engel also got into action today
and demonstrated that his arm is re-
cuperating. He was a trif1e wild, but
had a lot of stuff

Remember This Motto.

George Stevenson was man who
accomplished very much during his
lifetime. The motto which he had
adopted and followed is credited with
having had much to do with it. This
motto was, Make the best Of every
thing, think the best of everybody
hope the best for yourself" Such a
motto means optimism, charity and
ambition-all of these in their highest
character and in their fullest mani
festation. 1t is a motto well worth
copying.

Real Friends Never Fail.

1t is never worth while to grieve
over the friend who has failed you,
who Is estranged by distance, or gives

friend. and instead OF grieving be-
cause you have found her out, be
thankful that you have not wasted
