agree that the fake player-writer stuff
is wrong, because it is a humbuggery,
but if a star player has the talent to
write an interesting baseball article,
and honestly does it, then it is good
stuff for any community.

It's a good day for rabbit hunting

II good day Tor RABBIT hunting.
It is now proper u speak of George
r. Stone, of Coleridge, Neb., banking
anG American league baseball fame,
as the angel of the Lincoln Tigers.
The transfer yesterday of the Tigers
to the stock company backed by Stone
was the most important thing that
has happened in the Western league
since the election of the new presi-
dent.
It is thought that with more local
people interested in the welfare of the
club, baseball in Lincoln will be bet
ter than it has been iE years. How
ever, in the retirement of Hugh Jones,
Lincoln and the whole league lose a
man who has few equals as a true,
blue sport and man of high ideals.
John Savage, of the Topeka baseball
club, states that he is still getting
applications from would-be-manage gers
at tho late of one or two q day, and
sometimes more. But he is just sit

The current issue of Sporting News
quotes a Western league club owner,
enormously called a member of Tip
O'NeilPS family, as saying that the
financial disasters in the league last
season were due to fake player-writer
syndicate articles that were published
in the Western league papers.

The gentleman above referred to
stated that whenever he met a couple
or three men tanning he found them
almost invariably discussing the pen
nant chances of some big league team,
wrangling over the merits of some
major league favorite, or wondering
how many base hits Cobb or Wagner
had made that afternoon. seldom did
he hear the rooters in his city discuss
ing the showing of their own team, or
the merits of promising players, as
would have been the case under SINH
lar conditions several years ago.

In giving the interview the club
owner modestly requested that his
name be withheld, but he probably
could be located in a guess and a half
and there is little doubt but that he
has a strain of Alibi Ike's blood run
ming in his veins.
