JIM ARCHER'S Great
ARM IS MISSHAPEN
Cub Catcher's THROWN ;
Wing Bunged Up in
Many Places
ONE FELL INTO
BOILING SAP VAT

The greatest catcher in baseball
stirred restlessly on the heaped-up
pillows. Yainly he sought a comfort
able position for his broken arm in
its cumbersome plaster east.
by rights I have no cause to find
fault" he said with a grimace Of
pain. "In the first place, / ought TO
have broken my neck instead OF my
arm the way / ran into that concrete
wall In Brooklyn. In the second
place, I spent the better part Of two
months In a hospital back in 1902
begging the doctors TO cut the arm
OF. If I could have persuaded them
to listen to me then, instead OF try
ing to save it, I would never have
been big league catcher. and
wouldn't be lying here now with my
wing wrapped up in surgeons ban
dage and plaster"
When James Archer, humble en-
ploye Of a cOoperage shop, fell into
a vat OF boiling sap and scared his
good right arm nearly to the bone he
turned over a new page in baseball
history. What had a frightfui acci-
dent to a poor boy, an immigrant from
Dublin, ireland, to do with the prog
ress of baseball?
Where is the connection, do you
ask? AS close as cause and effect.
For upon that accident, by remorse-
less freak Of fate, came the uncanny
art, the all but impossible skill. which
has made the great Cub backstOp
unrivaled in class.
We have cited the case of James
Archer not in the way of biography,
though his career is one OF the most
extraordinary in baseball. We have
cited II because In his case the me-
chanical science Of catching reaches
its most perfect realization.
Archer is the fastest, the most
deadly of throwers to the bases. He
is the nonpareil of all catching wiz
ardy, and his height, medium, his
weight the same. His throwing arml

effects OF the terrible burns sustainel
in the accident at the cooperag
works. The hand itself has been fear

thumb has been dislocated and the
joint is swelled to double it's natural
size. The index finger has been
broken no less than four times and
every joint is gnarled and bent.
The bones of the second finger have
been shattered on three occasions
the third once, the little finger has
been dislocated several times and its
joints creak like rusty hinge. Lastly
the elbow suffered a compound frac'

arm apparently so little adapted t
