all the best of trade with his uncle,
Alfred Underhill. generally reputed as

Charles got all the worst of it in q
deal with a Williamsburg man, said to
be George Davis, and his father
brought the matter to the attention
of Prosecutor Keller today.
Charles, his father says, was lead

had been made few days before and
refused, when he met Davis.
Underhill says Davis offered the lad
50 for the horse and the boy accepted
it. Davis, however, did no thave the
money. but the boy consented to him
taking the animal if he would pay the
next day and on the understanding
that it remained the property of his
father until the payment had been
made.

Charlie got the worst of the bargain

1000 FRIENDS
SEE THE FUN

There was a record breaking crowd
at the annual field day sports of the
police department at Front and Union
streets yesterday afternoon, the at
tendance being estimated at 1000.
Grandstand and bleachers we're
crowded and outside in the field hum
dreds of fans we're lined The East
Side started the fun by spiking the
tug-'o-war even because they had
spikes I'm their shoes. In all the
events every contestant was in the
running and the judges had to be on
the alert to get the winners.
The baseball game was full of ex-
citement from the time Uncle Billy
Heald tossed the first ball. Dave
Gray, for the East Side, struck out
II and Bowman Z, while costly errors
once in a while caused a difference in
the score. Captain Jordan, of the
West Side team. smiled as he worked
some of the old time New Castle
pinch hitting and run tactics. Barr
tried to Offset this streak by Duck
Level playing and Johnson told
Grussemeyer that he would never
get TO Paris. "Jakey" Payne showed
the fans that he is no "has-been" anc
had three tallies to his credit.
Mcdonnell was in his glory because
Donlin and some of the others haC
been jollying him about the game
/ While the East Side lost the game
the rooters were happy because th'

ribbons to count 50 to % points.

DOAK Teaching
HUB PERDUE ART OF
USING SPITBALL

ST. LOUIS. Sept. 4.-Willie Doak,
of the Cardinals. is teaching Hub Per-
due how to throw a spitball. Hub
has steaming speed and a curve that
will go around a barrel He figures
that his repertory will be complete
when he masters the splitter.
"Spitball pitchers are more or less
four-hushers," said Perdue. Two
thirds Of the time they only bluff.
They seldom throw a splitter unless
they are up against it. Fooling the
batsman is their real stock in trade.
I made the New York Giants believe
that l had a splitter in the first time
met them while pitching for Boston.
The contest was played on the Polo
Grounds. The Giants put me in bad
in the second inning. Fred Merkle
was at the bat. There were three on
and two out / pretended that l had
a splitter and struck him out. On my
way to our bench l overheard him
say:
"'Gee, that guy has a splitter that
breaks a foot
after that I stalled beautifully
and pulled the wool over their eyes
Made 'em believe that was another
Ed Walsh. Shut 'em out, 2 to 0. Just
shows you how easy it is to get by il
you know how"
