Sporting Gossip

Big ieaguers may find it extremely
difficult to explain to Mr.. Fan, draw
ing $40 or $25 a week for eight or
nine hours work q day, for fifty
weeks a year, just where they have
any kick coming against conditions
that give them from $4,000 to $40, 900
for playing ball for six months an
nually, with all transportation and
hotel expenses on the road paid fo-
them. Take one case. Allow Walter
Johnson drew Just $12,5OO last sum-
mer and pitched fifty ball games. For
each game he was paid $3.50. He is a
hard worker, and, therefore, is paid
less per game than many other pitch
ers. And what does Mr.. Fan think
about this whole thing?
How many more times will Miske

directors OF the Players Fraternity
contains names of several players
either sent back to the bushes, like
Josh Devore, or hanging on to the big
show by q thread, like Ed ReuI-
bach, Sam Crawrod, and Jimmy Arch
er. During the recent Federal
League fuss, many OF these slowing
veterans maintained their jobs wholly
through the influence they exerted as
members OF the board of directors.
Some OF them held up their clubs on
this account. John Henry was one
OF the few who was on the square
with his club, and did not attempt to
use his position in the fraternity. But
maybe after this strike threat passes.
there won't be any need of a board of
directors
in New York because two players
have been disqualified.
Les Darcy's reception in Philadel-
phia was anything but warm, though
the Australian really tried to make
good. However, he was going through
light training stunts in a ring where
boxers actually perform every week.
apd so but eighty-six fans turned out
TO see him. His show is said to have
quit, none of the supporting cast hav-
ing been paid in the eight days it was
on the road. Even a boxer has to eat
regularly. The sooner Darcy's man
ager listens to reason, the better it
will be for the visitor, whose popu-
larity is rapidly waning.

Scarcely an issue of the Berlin, Ham

W. n. BERRY FOR COUNTY SCHOOL
SUPERINTENDENT

When we announce the candidacy of
Prof. William T. Berry for School Su-
perintendent Of Mason county 1t seems
almost unnecessary for us to say any
thing as to his qualifications. All of
Mr.. Berry's life has been spent in
educational work and the greater part
of 1t as teacher In the Maysville Pub
lie Schools. He is energetic, progress
sive and capable and the people of
Mason county will make no mistake
In electing him to the office to which
he aspires. MIR. Berry is not public
office seeker but feels that he can full
fill the office Of County School Super
intendent so as to make old Mason
keep to the fore as far as Its eduea-
tional institutions and opportunities
are concerned, at least. He promises
to put forth his best efforts il elected
and asks the support Of the thinking
people of Maysville and Mason county
