Connie Finds Out
He Had Wrong Dope
On Castro in Rush

Lou Castro, now out OF base ball,
tells with great gusto how Connie
Mack tried to make a pitcher out OF
him. Castro was attending Manhat-
tan college and had pitched a game
against rival school. He says it was
the best game he had ever pitched and
he never knew just how he did it.
Connie Mack heard OF it and offered
him a contract, so he reported to the
Athletics.
Mack had great club that year,
great enough to win the American
league championship, and, though the
johnson circuit was baby then, it
was some husky infant" says Castro.
"If remember right, the pitchers
were Fred Mitchell, Ed Plank, Rube
Waddell and Hastings. Shreck and
Powers were the catchers, Harry Da-
Wis, first base; Danny Murphy, sec
ond; Lave Cross. third; Monte Cross,
short, and Sox Seybold. Topsy Hart

The Reds, Giants and Pirates follow

On one of the Red Sox's western
trips several years ago it was brought
to Tsylor's attention by, some well
wisher who was very badly informed
that Frank Arellanes, then pitcher
with Taylor's club, was thinking
seriously of getting married.
Immediately Taylor got on the trail
of the Santa Cruz hurer.
"Here's $500 for you, Frank" said
the Red Sox's owner, "and it's all
yours if you don't get married Just
at this time"
Arellanes accepted the money and
said nothing.
"Why shouldn't he have done so?-
asks Spencer. Frank didn't know
anything about his coming marriage

One bright summer day a little
child wandered far away from home.
She was but 3 years old and had
never left the house before.
Suddenly the mother missed the
child and, calling the dog, said, "Bob,
June is gone, will you help me find
herr"
The dog understood the words of
the mother and went up the road.
Afterward Master Bob came to the
spot where the child lay. He ran
hastily back to the mother and barked
loudly. She then knew the dog had
found the child and went to her.
Under the spreading oak tree the
mother shed tears of Joy for the
child's safety. And you may be sure
that Master Bob was beloved by
everybody. For being brave he re-
ceived nice collar and warm dinner,
for you may be sure that child's
mother and father were more than
glad to praise the dog for his 10y

Lincoln attended the Ford theater,

lever of the southern cause and so
he took stand against Lincoln and
