Billy Sullivan Was

 Was No Gun Expert

Billy Sullivan is somewhat. jealous of the fame Matty. Bender, ct al. have been acquiring as uapshooters- The old White Sox catcher claims to be some handler of the shotgun him self. John Ritchie of the Minneapolis Tribune says Billy is all he claims to be and then some, and then tells story that gives both Sullivan and himself the laugh

Umpire Fooled By
 Players Clever Trick

Umpires make mistakes some times, but few umpires will admit. Some times they err and don't know it. The Browns and the White Sox were play ing in St. Louis. Weaver had reached first and was stealing second with every ounce of larceny that was in him. He neared second with the ball. He slid viciously as Pratt caught the pill and put it on him.. A cloud of dust arose. ''Y'r out,'' bawled the roads inspector-umpirei of bases. It made the third out.
 Twenty feet back of Pratt, backing him up, was RodericI Wallace, then playing short for the Browns. As Rod erick walked toward the bench he tossed a baseball into the pitchers box ..,4
 Now, how did he get the ball, Pratt had made the put-out and Pratt did not throw the ball to WalIace.
 We'll, truth to tell. the ball had roll ed through Pratt's legs and actually been caught by Wallace some 20 feet back of Pratt. But Pratt went through a bluff motion of touching out WeaV- CT. They got away with it!
