You Cant Pull Unexpected With
Ordinary Players, Jennings Says

Hughie also mentioned Mickey
kavanaugh, a third sackcr from
York. Pa.
Bill Coughlin told me that this
Kavanaugh was one of the best men
he ever looked at and will be a Won
der if he makes up his mind to play.
Coughlin says Kavanaugh is a fellow
much like Schaefer, who takes base
hall lightly, and likes t. have as much
fun out of it as possible. OF course.
Schaefer car also play. but from what
| lea the fun that K~avanaugh gets
out uf it seriously handicaps the
amount and quality of playing he puts
into it.
"Vnach is a hard hitter. He makcs
come good drives with men nn bases.
but he is a poor fielder. and no good
as . runner Vcach used to be a
pitcher and never tried to do a. thing
in The h~ase-running line. That was all
right and good enough while he hurl-
cd in the minors, but in the majors.
MS an outfielder. he finds himself seri-
ously handicapped by these acquired
habits.
"Demmitt is said to be a great base
runner and a splendid fielder"
But can he nit?
"They all say he can and we will
know probably by the middle of
May"

I%ulfnnrf Niss MARCH, Ia

Gulfport. Miss, March 14.-One
thing the Detroit club needs, and that
is speed.
Hughie Jennings ,confesses it is a
crying necessity with the team.
I'VE have but three fast men,
Cobb, Bush and Moriarity. But Mori-
arity has not been in the game reg
ularly, which leaves us only two reg
ulars who are rated as fast men and
good men III the bases.
New York's Nationals won a few
pcnnants in recent years principally
because they had the speed to carry
other teams off their feet. They could
pull stuff Tho same goes for tho
Boston Americans year before last.
ut is all we'll and good to talk about
pulling the unexpected and that line
of argument. but how are YOU going Ia
pull it without the speed to pull it
with? You can't build a stone house
with boards and you can't get into Il
high-powered 1T boat ace with a
tug"
Jennings mentioned but one man
whom he thinks can help the team on
the speed angle. That is Ray Dem
mitt, secured from Montreal in the
International league and reputed to
be a WINGED mercury" Demmitt is
a left fielder.

have real twenty-round fights with
decisions.
mo, 1 don't think that giving de
cisions would help matters in the
cast any. On h contrary. l think
that more harm would be done. 1 dc
not believe in making decisions in
such short fights as ten rounds. A
tighter has not time enough to fully
demonstrate his superiority over an
other. Some of our greatest cham.
pions would never have been heard OF
under those conditions. The west is
the only place where we have real
fights and lighters"
Say" said Jim, watch this he,
fighter we have out west-Will MUIR
ray. He looks good. mighty good-ev-
en- better than Ketchel, when Steve
was first heard Of"

Willie Whitman. the fifteen-year-
old son of Mr.. and Mrs. ]. W. Whit
man of Barr avenue. was knocked
down by ]. VI. Anderson & Company's
auto delivery truck opposite Bethel's
clothing store about A O'Clock Mon
day afternoon. but escaped without
serious injury. The boy was riding
bicycle and turned into the street
curb Unexpectedly to Ben Sage, who
was driving the truck. and the colli-
sion seems TO have been unavoida-
BILE. The truck was stopped in time
to prevent running over the unfor-
tunate lad. although he was pretty
badly shaken up by the jar he re-
oeived from the machine, The bicy-
Gle was wrecked. but was sent to the
repair shop by 1. NJ Anderson & Co.
and will be presented to him In ms good
condition as IL was before the acci-
dent. The boy was carried to W. H
Peabody's drug store and, an exami-
nation OF his injuries amde by ply
sician, which were found to be slight
Later he was taken to his. home and
made as comfortable as possible. He
was reported to be little sore this
morning fro mhis wounds but 1t is be-
iieved that he will be all right again
in the course Of a few days. Had the
truck been running at a higher rate
of speed the result would have been
different.

C. B. MERRlS SECURES BIG
TRACT OF VIRGIN TIMBER

Mr.. C. b. Merris. the coal. wood.
wood. hay and feed man. has recently
secured a large tract OF virgin timber
land on Wilson Creek.
This will be good news to the peo-
pie OF Canon City who realize that 1t
means more and better and cheaper
wood for them.
At great expense Mr.. Merris built
a road to this tract of timber and is
now hauling many loads Of wood every
day into town.
II will be a satisfaction to people
to know. in the face of the extremely
high price OF coal that a reputable
local dealer has taken up and solved
the wood question.
The customer will not hereafter
have to chase up and down Main
street in quest OF wood hauier
when wood is needed, and then IL will
no longer be necessary to buy the
wood at catch-as-catch-can weights
and pay whatever price the hauier
sees fit TO ask.
Mr.. Merris has thought and figured
the problem all out to a nicely. He
Tan give the customer either cedar or
pinon wood. either in lengths or
sawed to tit the stove.
This wood will be sold at s<.5e q
long cord or $e.se q stove cord, saw
ed up ready 10 be used. And when g
cord OF long wood or stove length Ia
purchased. It Will be q cord that will
be delivered.
Heretofore It has been impossible
10 get wood In any quantity from .
reputable local dealer This fact has
caured great deal of dissatisfaction
to the consumer.
Mr.. Merris has laid his plans and
IL now able to haul wood 10 those who
want IT at above pr,ces which are
indeed reasonable.
Mr.. Merris wants the wood traae
Of Canon City and would be pleased
to have your patronage.-Adv.
