GULFPoRT. Miss. March a.
This is sore arm day In the Tiger
camp. The ambitious youngsters
who allowed their zeal to outweigh
their judgment yesterday are pay
ing the penalty, and every one of
the lads who did their first throwing
yesterday, and that includes them
all. woke up with arms that ached
and bodies that creaked, although
the initial workout was brief one
session affair, with Manager Jen-
nings and Catcher MacGuire playing
a watchful waiting role.
There will be but one workout to-
day and II Is not probable that there
will be anything doing at the Fair
Grounds OF afternoons this week.
Yesterdays bright sunshine was
coupled with rather chilly wind.
which kept the players indoors ex-
cept for the track work, but to-
wards night, the breeze gave up the
ghost and this morning dawned
with the prospects OF an ideal day
for some snappy work on the dia-
mond.
The usual lobbing OF the ball for
an hour will be on the program with
some batting and fielding practice
as an added feature. The chief OBJ
jet OF the first weeks practice is
TO bring the young pitchers to the
point where they can give the next
weeks added starters some real
hurting to swing at and to get a
line on the coaching needed by the
juveniles.
They were all on dress parade
yesterday tossing the ball with a
fancy delivery. but all of the rockies
performed as II they had formerly
met baseball and knew something
about handling II. There wasn't an
awkward man in the bunch.
Cunningham and Ledbetter both
looked especially good. On his ar.
rival in camp. the latter impressed
the wise boys as the possessor of
a fast one that would bear watch.
Ing. and Cunningham is sturdy
youngster who will not be casually
waved aside.
The clubhouse, where a lot OF
warming up will be done. is in bet.
ter shape than ever for baseball
work. A number of posts and other
distractions have been cleared away
and II is now clear for it's full
length.
The dirt floor gives good footing
for the young athletes.

Ball players are very prone to
corns and callouses, the latter re-
sulting from the continual use OF
heavily spiked shoes. Last years

Chiropody may seem little fancy
for ball players, but II is real econ
omy and in these days nothing is
too good for the contract-trodden
serfs OF the national sport.

sToNE-AGE POLITICS. If the
newspaper stories are true that COM
mon laborers in city employee have to
get political backing from ward or
CARNATIONS to hold their jobs it
means a return to stOne-age politics
in Chicago. Very few Of the voters
who|supported Mayor Thompson did
so because they held jobs or expected
to get jobs; and any attempt to build
up political machine out of job
holders will drive ten votes away
from the party for every one that is
bought with job.
Any sewer-digger, layer of water
mains or sweeper of the streets earns
every nickel he gets by the actual
work he does; and he is wage slave
enough without being made a pOlit-
icaI slave to boot.
Mayor Thompson will be stronger
in every way if he depends upon pub
lie support because Of his conduct as
a public servant than he will be if he
makes a public job the price for po-
litical support,
By serving the public any mayor
will earn and get the public support.
By serving party first he is apt to
lost public support. While Mayor
Thompson ran as Republican there
was mighty little partisan politics in
$ the vote that elected him.
The moment he loses public sup
port the trust press will jump on him
with both feet With public support
he needn't be afraid of anybody or of
any selfish interest a-.-..---

Journalism as it is today, Quite ma

But how many of them know it as

anybody what journalism ought to be

About the only industry in this
country that hasn't been thoroughly

the publisher paid for at wholesale.
The lawyer said he had never

Rome July, 13.-The Leonardo da. ysnci, of whom the woEId thinks only a4 great painter, is now set forth in the Itanan papers as a great peophet of what might come to pass in war fare. In the latter part of the 18th century his versatile genius included skill as scientist, engineer, rnechan1- ctan and architect, am we'll as a painter and musician, and his imagination led to the design of many remarkable inn pIements of war, among which was a steam gun which was run by boiling water.
