SOME FREAK IlURLERS
Few Players Who Can Use Either
Hand in Pitching.
Keenan, Of Youngstown Could Work
Equally Well With Either Arm
-corcoran Tried to "Come
Back" With Left Hand.

Followers of baseball have often
heard of the fellow who could pitch
fast ball with either hand and make
1t curve also, but few have seen one
OF these pitching freaks.
Baseball history tells OF chap
named Owen Keenan,. who pitched for
Youngstown. o.. in 1885. Keenan,
could pitch equally we'll with either
arm On the Fourth of July of that
season this wonder pitched two games
of ball against New Castle and beat
that team in both contests. He worked
his left arm in the first game and
used his right wing In the second con-
test. with the odds in favor OF the
right whip.
The famous Larry Corcoran OF the
Chicago team. in the early sos was
one Of the great hurlers of the Pc
riod. Larry lost the use Of his won
derful right arm during the season
of 1885. This almost broke his heart.
for Larry was not old in years. It
dawned upon him that he might make
left-handed pitcher. for he was al
ways clever at throwing with his left.
and used to practice frequently. In
the season of 1886 Corcoran signed
with Southern league team as left
handed pitcher and reported for
practice as such. He worked hard to
gain control. for he developed rare
speed. Larry pitched few exhibit
tion games. and in one Of them he
kinked his remaining wing SO bad.
ly that he was released. sc he had
t<, p-- h. kal Ny,%
OF pitching arms.
So the ambidextrous hUrler is more
or less OF a myth. The pitching game
is too strenuous for any kind of an
arm but the good natural wing.

GRAY MARE CAUSED TROUBLE
Umpire at Ball Game Tells Fans Cause
Of commotion and the Game 10
Proceeded With.

Jack Holland of the st. Joseph
Western league club tells this story:
One afternoon last summer when
the Omaha and Sioux City teams Of
the Western league were indulging in
a hot battle commotion occurred at
one end Of the grand stand in the
first named city. The several hundred
fans rushed through the aisles of the
stands, every one craning his neck
over another's shoulder in an at
tempt to discern the cause of the trou-
BILE.
Finally the umpire held up his
hands as signal for the contest to
halt; then, removing his mask and
donning his hat he approached the
stands. in loud voice he cried:
Ladies and men, A hush fell.
The umpire cleared his throat, then
proceeded with the announcement:
"I want to say to the owner of
that gray mare that she's down and
can't get up. Thank you. Play ball.
"And the game was continued"

Though the government is having a
tough time getting at the facts, pro-
fessional ball players will pay into the
internal revenue department some
thing like $4,000 in income tax
But for the fact that SO per cent OF
the players in the American, National
and Federal leagues are married and
are thereby permitted to claim an ex-
emption of $4,000 in salary, the sum
exacted by the government would be
considerably greater.
From the best information the ex-
perts have, been able to obtain there
are III the three leagues mentioned
about 300 players who receive more
than $4,000 year. This really means
six months, as that is the length of
the contracts. What they earn dur
ing the other six months also has to
be accounted for. but in most cases it
is nothing.
OF these 800 there are about 200
who earn more than $4,000. There
are close to 100 who draw more than
$4,000 and SO whose contracts call for
Cheyenne record., 1915-05-06
Eddie Collin. ., Chicago White sox.

amounts ranging between $4,000 and
$4,000. There are less than dozen
who make more than that. The
notable ones are Eddie Collins, Ty
Cobb, iris Speaker. Walter Johnson
and few managers. McGraw is re-
puted to make $25,0O0 in salary.
The players who take part. in a
worlds series are required to put
that amount in with their salaries,
which makes it certain that every
man on championship club has to
pay income tax.
In making out their statements, the
ball players, or the club secretaries
who do the work for them, have raised
an interesting question that may re-
quire a decision by the government
before 1t can be settled with definite
precision.
Instead OF a reserve clause, the con-
tracts now have one which declares
that one-fourth of the salary stipulated
shall be considered payment for an
option on their services for the fol-
lowing year. For instance, player
Cheyenne record., 1915-05-06

whose contract calls for $4,000 does
not get that much In actual salary.
One thousand dollars of 1t is an op-
tion on his future services. The play.
er. therefore, wants to know whether
he shall turn in statement saying
that his salary is $4,000 or $4,000. II
he puts in the latter figure. is he to
include the option price as a part Of
his income?
The married players are congratu-
lating themselves in that they have
$4,000 exempt. while the single men
have to pay q. tax on all they make
over $4,000. OF these bachelors. iris
Speaker Is the hardest hit. He earns
a salary Of $4,000 and must pay q
tax on $4,000, which amounts to $l20

THROW THE BALL STRAIGHT
Manager Hickey Of St. Louis Browns
Advises Young FIelders to Avoid
Throwing Curve Ball.

Branch Hickey, manager for the
Browns. thinks young player Is
foolish trying to throw curves and
other things when he is an infielier,
outfielder or catcher. 1t is all right
for hurler, but not for the others
on the club. They should school them
selves into throwing a straight ball
and nothing else.
That's how lost my arm" says
the leader OF the Browns. Il once
thought owned a splitter better than
Ed Walsh ever had. l threw It one
day, and it jumped allsover the place.
Well, the next day tried again, but
could do nothing. My arm was gone.
THAT is why l think 1t Is foolish
for a player other than pitcher to
try to curve ball. l learned my les
son when it was too late, and in order
not to suffer the same fate l would
advise others not to try It"

THEORY OF ECONOMIC EXHAUSTION

What has already happened throws some light the favOrite theory of economic exhaustion a result of Nothing be cOnVinc- ingly reasoned out inevitable consequence yet nothing is harder to prove by historical precedent We can in fact. recall but instance in the great wars of the past two centuries in which com blatant had lay down his because of such exhaustion But the southern confederacy of 1865 in position where the supplies of it's armies were literally cut off by superior forces. Lee had lost access to his country's farms and store houses. It no longer question of money credit. but of food
 It must be frankly admitted that the present war is creating situations to history, this regard in others. With Germany France, for example, 1t is case of withdrawing from produc tion. for indefinite period the greater part of the able bodied male citizenship, and turning them into consumers. And in Germany, this happens when the nation is cut off from the outside pro- ducing world. What is to be the end Of that process? The question is not with the confed- eracy what will happen to the army, but what will happen to the nation. It is doubtful if the ques- ton has ever been really tested in time.-New York Evening Post.

The crowd that filled the spacious lobby of the Y. M. C. A. assembled last night to pay tribute on the an niversary of his birth to the memory of Dwight L. Moody, Americas greatest evangelist
 The program, which was made up of fitting selections and addresses, began with The Ninety and Nine, the fam ous Sankey hymn, which was sung as solo by Maitland Davies. He was accompanied by Miss Fuqua.
 Early recollections of the great Christian worker of modern times were given by Mrs. Clara E. Battin, cousin Of Dwight l.. Moody. She was followed by Walter Hill, who spoke of his per
 sonal acquaintance with the evange- list, and told of his once spending a week in Phoenix His personal recol- lcctions were replete with interest Others who had known the evangelist | followed.
 i The life of Moody, as shown in g stereopticon lecture, was admirably l handled by Secretary Harry Blair oi ] the r. M. C. A., who held the close at

 The attitude of the senate has been interpreted to be unfriendly to the administration though no acute signs of such sentiment have shown l themselves. It is at least, certain that there will be no 'ax" com mittee.
 The most notable evidence of a want of good feeling toward the ad- ministration was shown in the ac tion of the, senate in turning down by a decisive majority the Colter amendment to the board of public welfare bill so as to give the gov ernor the control of the board. The senate bill. by the way, differs from the house bill of the same nature, the latter giving the governor the same control that he now exercises over the board of control.
 But. it is generally understood that the senate bill cannot pass the house. where. whatever may be the line up with respect to the administration there is not such a majority against it that any measure, that appears to be aimed at the administration, can not get over the veto.

Safequardino Supplies of Food

Not long ago it announced that enough food had been stored throughout Germany to avert fam inc. even slight deprivation, if the war should continue for year and the empire be prevented from obtaining food from abroad. Now comes the sinister order from the imperial govern ment that there must be the most extreme economy in the of wheat flour, and that flour made from coarser grain and potatoes must constitute the greater part of the bread rations of the people If there is admitted, shortage of wheat, corn and rye in Germany, with millions of soldiers in the field to be fed it would seem that the question of subsistence for the army and also for the popula- tion home will soon loom large For, with Ger
