BASEBALL NOTES.

Princeton seems to be the home of
the invention of baseball pitching de-
vices The latest one. by Alexander
Macmillan, recalls that Prof. Fine of
Princeton exhibited a pitching ma
chine at the South End Grounds
back in the COS. His invention threw
various curves and it was most anus
ing to watch the batsnen try to con-
meet with the ball. They missed the
preliminary motion Of the human
pitcher, and, therefore. lacked that
preparedness when the ball shot out
of the muzzle OF the machine. This
latest device suggests the boomerang,
as the ball returns automatically to
the box.
The first conflicting date in Brook
lyn between the National League and
the Federal will be June 1, when the
Boston Braves are to go against the
Superbas. There will be conflicts for
the four days that the Boston team
is in Brooklyn. There will be another
clash on July Is. and the Cincinnati
Reds and the Chicago Feds win then
be the rival attractions for four days.
