That the leader of the Browns al
ways was a good batter is shown by
the record he made in the minors and
majors He started his professional
career back in 1903 with the Lamar
club of the Iowa-South Dakota league
The latter part of the same season
he went to Dallas, in the Texas
league, where no played in 1904 and
1905.
He had a trial in the big ring be-
fore finally sticking That was in the
fall OF 1904, when he had a three
weeks tryout with the Cincinnati
club, but was sent back to the Texas
league club. In 1905 he did such good
work that he was drafted by the
White Sox, but before getting a
chance with Comiskey's team he was
traded to the Browns for Catcher
Roth.
In 1906 he batted .2S4 for the
Browns in sixty-four games, while he
also had a fielding mark OF .954 in
fifty-five battles That record was a
good deal more than is being com
piled by many Of the receivers in the

Count Bertrand de Lessups, son OF
the famous Frenchman Of Suez canal
fame, has constructed an air-propelled
machine which is capable of attaining
a speed of from fifteen to sixty miles
an hour over the snow, according to
the condition OF the frozen roads. The
shoe-shaped chassis is attached to
broad fiat metal runners, and vibra.
tion Is reduced to a minimum by the
addition of strong springs. The pro-
peller behind the pilot is well guard
ed by a metal screen as a protection
against any one approaching it close
ly. When snow falls wheels are placed
on the projecting pins, which lift the
ski from the ground. and the car will
then attain a speed Of nearly one hun.

chine as this is to be taken into the
antarctic regions bv Shatkle with

this form of amusement is called aero
