Crackers Might Take on Street
Would FIJI Chapman's Shoes

= ABBY looked to us lite che best
~ catcher in the Southern League
last season. The manner in which he
handled the big Pole showed that he
retained much of the stamina that
kept him up under W. Johnson's fire.
Coveleskie is no spring chicken for
tenderness when it comes to delivery.
good many fans unjustly and un-
wisely criticised Gabbys fancy style
of taking q pitched ball, especially
with men on bases. They seemed to
think he was Showing off" AS a
matter OF fact, that odd little flip of
the mitt enables Gabby to absorb a,
fast one with no particular Jar to his
hands or position; and that bit of a
crow-hop puts him in position to peg
as he takes the pitch.
Gabby is a mighty stylish catcher
especially in Glass A company.
A LSO Gabby is pretty fair hitter
"A and has a good head, which he
uses freely. And he is a veteran of
much experience.
In fact, we don't>/get H. Harry's
idea in wanting to let Gabby go. That,
however, is entirely none of our biz.
Only, there can be no harm in ex-
pressing the wish that, IL Chapman
takes the long jump. -. Smith might
get Mr.. Street to fill his shoes.
That looks to us like good move.

age. This is a splendid move by the
organization, and will result in a
much higher standard Of play. l pre-
dict that out of the West will come

Nor events at the Westward Ho Club
near Chicago, for Westward Ho was
the pioneer in Junior championships.
Why Westward Ho finally dropped
these tournaments l do not know, but
they were a power for good during
their existence. l recall, too, that
the club had also a very interesting
open event that fell by the wayside.
THE first junior championship was
held at Westward Ho in 1907, and
there was an entry of over 60. Paul

the last two holes. It can readily be
seen that these close matches created
the keenest sort of rivalry and enthu

in consequence our games were great

The 1907 junior event began on
Monday and concluded on Wednesday
In order not to interfere with the
weekend play of the members, but in
aOs, 1909 and 1910 the finals were
played on Saturday, with an enthu-
siastic gallery in evidence.
While the older members usually
had charge of the tournaments, two
of them were beautifully managed by
Willie Langford and Vernon Hous-
ton.
IN 1910 Dave Jolly came over from

of the international flavor lent by

DRETTY nearly at the same time
we hear of two things, as fol-
lows:
Cd That Chapman has decided to
jump from Billy Smiths fold to the
Federal League.
90 That Moose Mccormick, up in
Chattanooga, wants to sell or trade
Gabby Street.
Granting that both these reports
are true, the whole business-or at
least Clause appears to be provi-
Dental.
THERE'S no denying the Chapman
man matter looks pretty gloomy
Bill Smith admits that If Chappy
means to play with the Crackers in
1914, he is taking funny way of
showing it.
AS to Handsome Harry and his al
legged desire to swap, trade, sell or
otherwise dispose of G.. Street, we
can't understand why he should have
to advertise this piece of property
very extensively without finding a
market.
Breaking II gently, we wouldn't
mind seeing Gabby in Cracker uni
form next spring-granting that

An Important Question.

Did il ever occur to you that the
most important question to you is
how much every farmer raises and how
many acres of land he cultivates! II a
farmer turns off only one beef steer
instead of twenty, your meat bill is go
ing to be high, yes, higher When the
farmer cultivates only 40 acres instead
of 80, the consumer of food stuffs lie
the loser.
What is this to the average citizen,
you ask The farmer expands his use
fulness in proportion as the small as
well as the large investor comes to his
aid with the cash to iertilize and cult
vate, through the purchase of mort
cages, which not only builds our rail-
roads, factories. telegraph and tele-
phone lines, hut is today the greatest
force in providing the farmer with the
necessary cash with which to improve
his farming methods, increase his acre
age and turn off more cattle and pro-
duce. thus giving the people more and
better food at lower prices.
The mortgage supplies the progress
sive man with the means. and in turn
furnishes the investor with the very
best security as well as a splendid re-
turn in interest.
There is no security on earth like the
earth itself.

COLLEGES AND MONEY
Evenlng Wiseonsln.


Reverend Doctor Frederick Il. Hop
kins. pastor of the Park Manor Congre-
gational church. Chicago, asserts that
million dollar endowments may have
done universities more harm than
good. Explaining this view, he OBJ
serves:
Many Of our wealthy men have given
vast sums to colleges which the found
would have thought such a temptation
to worldliness that they probably would
have declined them, believing that to
be the best way to illustrate Blessed
are the poor in spirit for theirs is the
kingdom of Heaven /" 1t is by no
means clear that the fruit of a univer-
sity with an endowment of many mil
lions is as good as when an Imprinted
row of red brick buildings was col
lege" and an opportunity for poor
miners boy with the sole ambition to
graduate at the bead of his class. Then
no one called him a grind" or snubbed
him because he did not own bull pup
or a ear" and never had lost five
hundred dollars of dads money in a
quiet little game down on Chapel street.
The attribute of disinterestedness to
this criticism would have been easier
had it not been launched as an intro
duction to an appeal for more money
for Sunday schools. lsn't it as possible
for that form OF educational enterprise
to be as subject as another to demon
ali2ation by excessive capitalization ?
The fact is that competitors for the
favor of the rich are always doubtful
that any one else can make as good
use of contributions as they can. In
regard to the money required for uni
versities, it is 10 be remembered that
more costly equipment is required in
these days than ever was the case be-
fore. The professor at one end of the
leg and the student at the other may
do in metaphysics, but not in physics.
For instruction in the physical sciences
there is need Of laboratories.

Senator Foraker seems TO be resuming
his old headship of the Republican
forces. In Indiana, the Fairbanks
Hemenway- Watson machine still dom
mates the party. Ex-senator Beverage
could not, therefore, do otherwise than
make his fight before the voters OF
Indiana upon a Progressive platform
and ticket, that represent the political
position he had always held as an ad-
vanced and up-to-date Republican. In
Iowa, Senator Cummins will run as a
Republican and will be reelected with
strong plurality. He has earned great
distinction as a Senator, and is certain
ly progressive enough for all reasona-
bic men. 1t would be absurd to vote
against Senator Cummins in Iowa sim
ply because his name for progressivism
is the Old name hepuDncan, unuer
which he won progressive victories be-
fore the new party was born. If SEN
ator Cummins, however, were {. public
man in Indiana, Ohio, Pennsylvania or
New York, he would have to be a
member of the Progressive party, be-
cause there would be no room for him
among the Republican leaders who,
during the Taft administration, solemn
" communicated him from the party
for his heresies. From The Progress
of the World" in the American Re
view of Reviews for July.
