as Il Fatal. Doctor2,

Evan b. Stotsenburg, attorney gen

Albany. A colored physician was
called as witness for the other side
to establish certain medical evidence.
This colored man had come to New
Albany with a diploma written in some
foreign language, and no one eyer had
taken the trouble to determine wheth-
er it was genuine, Stotsenburg said in
telling the story Mr. Stotsenburg
cross-examined the witness thus:
You say you are physician--a

asked.
Yes, sir, replied the colored man.
You know all about diseases-an

MOST USEFUL PITCHER
interesting Comparisons Made OF
Famous TWirlers.
Speed of Charley Nichols Was Effec-
tive Because Sent Up With Easy
Motion-Best Man to Take
Over Anothers Game.

Jack Doyle has some interesting
comparisons to make of famous pltcn-
ers and those fans who used to de-
light in Charley Nichols pitching,
when his great jump ball was WORK
ing. will be interested in what the
old New Yorker and Baltimore player
of ''Nick's" time has to say about him.
Jack caught the fast pitching of Amos
Rusie, batted against kid" Nichols
and has observed closely the work OF
Walter Johnson.
"Johnson's fast ball is faster than
Rusie's," says Doyle, "yet Amos had
a faster and wickeder curve. But IN
holding Rusie and Johnson up to view
as the speediest pitchers, there's one
bygone pitcher who is overlooked. 1
mean Charley Nichols. Though not as
fast as Rusie or Johnson, he was good
and fast, and his speed was all the
more effective because sent up with
an easy motion.
nichols was the best pitcher | ever
saw to take another pitchers game,
and for that reason there never was
another pitcher who was more val
liable to his team than he was to the
Bostons. BY taking over another
pitchers game mean going in when
that other pitcher was in bad, and he
could do that effectively even If he
had pitched the day before. There
haven't been any more useful pitchers
than Nick"
