Thirty-three years old and just be- ginning to have his most remarkable success as a pitcher-that's the rec ord of Eddie Cicotte. Credited this year with the most successful use of the "shine ball. he also Is given cred 1t for having some control over a knuckle ball and is more than the av- craze performer with the splitter.
 Cicotte, veteran who, according to usual records. should be getting out of the way, heaved himself into the rec ords for keeps when he hurled mo- hit. no-run game this year.
 When Jack Coombs was getting his drst experience as major leaguer, Ci- cotte had been taken on by Detroit. found wanting and sent back. He graduated from the same club that turned Ty Cobb loose and they both went to Detroit the same year.

stretch they have vacated. Traverses are blown up, lengths of trench filled in. From behind comes the rapid hammering of machine guns taking toll of an enemy attempt to dash across the open and bomb down the trench
 .'In the captured section, empty now of effective foes, men are rushing in search for the dugout openings. They fling down each couple of bombs that explode with a soft phutt !. Down below in the dark cave Is a sheet of flame, an intense heat. chok- ing smoke. Fumes wreathe thickly out of the entrance. Gasping. dazed survivors rush out, are seized upon. Explosion after explosion leaps up In the stretch of the raided trench.
 "Once more the red signal rockets drift among the roaring flares. The enemy barrage crashes in the air and from the ground. On the Hanks spite full machine guns rake en enfilade the tangle of rusty wire, the shell-churned desolation of No Mans Land. But if they have ordinary luck the raiders are already safely back in their own trenches"

TACK IN SOUP; ASKS s1o,ooo
x-Ray Photograph Shows iron Fras- ment in Digestive Tract Of
 New York Man.

New York-An x-rny photograph was filed in the Supreme court show ing that Morris D. Spitzer is carrying q large tack, about three-quarters of an inch long, inside him. The tack is imbedded in his digestive tract, near the center of his body.
 Spitzer planes some vegetable soup which he bought in restaurant at 42 East Fourteenth street on December 28. 1915. for the intrusion of the tack. He says he picked up several of the tacks while eating his soup, and swal- lowing one before he realized 1t. An other he picked out of his mouth.
 The tack-swallowing incident is the basis of $1OOOO damage action against the restaurant company. The restaurant company denies 1t was guilty of negligence.

BASEBALL FREAK OF SEASON
Greasy NeaIe of Cincinnati Made Home Run and Single in One Time at
 Bat in Giant Game.

Every baseball season produces it's freaks, and 1917 is no exception to the rule.
 In a recent game at the Polo Grounds Greasy Neale of the Reds. got home run and a single in one time at bat.
 Cant be done !" you say? Bet your small change first.
 Neale came to bat with Chase on second and hit to center field for four bases. But as Pol Perritt, the Giants pitcher, wound up to pitch the ball that Neale slammed for a homer, fan who had recovered foul in the grandstand tossed it onto the field of play and Umpire Harrison raised his hand. calling time, just before the ball was hit.
 After conference between umpires and managers it was decided that the home run was illegal and Neale was called back to the plate. He drove single to left on the next ball pitched. As he was credited with but one time at bat he made a homer and single in the one trip to the platter. some thing which doesn't happen often.

liked the game. They cheered every time hit was made, even if 1t were only foul.
 But the real missionary work is go- ing on behind the trenches now, where Americans and Canadians are playing baseball for the edification and delight of the Tommies and poilus as well as for their own pleasure"
 Callahan has struck a popular note.
 Why not international baseball after the war?
 Baseball has been one of the great melting pots of America. Practically every nationality has contributed big stars. This refutes any idea that base ball has been cornered by America and cannot be developed anywhere else.
 Looking over the records of the last few years we find that France is rep resented by the great Lajoie. by Cicotte, Fabrique, Ruth and several others. Ireland contributed the Dela- hantys, Pat Moran. Moriarty Killifer and host of others. Scotland gave us McQuillan and Chalmers. Bates and many others are of English descent.
 Italy is represented by Abbatichio, Guisto and Ping Bodie. Many great ball players have come from Germany, Bohemia and Poland

FAMILY HAS A GREAT
 AMERICAN WAR RECORD

Elizabeth, w. Va.-The fam fly of N. D. Madden, near here. Is a soldierly and patriotic one. Madden is q veteran of the Civil war. His great-grandfather served in the Revolutionary war. His grandfather served in the war of 1912, his older brother in the Mexican war. He and an- other brother fought in the Civil war and younger brother fought in the Spanish-American war. Two of his sons are in the present war and four other sons are awaiting the call.

English Expert Tells of the Sud- den Assaults on Ever-Alert
 Germans.
NEW SCIENCE IS DEVELOPED
Purpose Is to Shake the Morale of the Enemy and Make Him Uncertain as to the Next Object of
 Attack

Iondon.-The trench raid, one of the developments of the European war, Is the subject of an official interview with British officer. which has been approved by the British press bureau. The narrative of this officer Is of particular interest at this time when the Americans are soon to go into the trenches to be called upon to carry out. among other things, just such raids as are here described
 The trench raid Is made for the purpose of shaking the enemy's nor ale, infiicting losses upon his person mel and destruction upon his works, and capturing prisoners and docu- ments that may reveal his condition and intentions Carried out chiefly at night, at frequent intervals and at many places. it exercises direst effect upon the enemy's nerves. Since 1916 Its constant practice has been the pol icy of the British command. Cap tured German letters bear ample wit mess to Its efficacy. We will attempt to sketch simple form of such a raid.
 For some days previously the field artillery has been methodically cut ting lanes through the enemy's wire at many points. An attack may or may not be pushed through these lanes. The enemy cannot be sure. In any case he cannot decide which of the points of passage will be used. Pune tuaily at zero hour the artillery hurls a barrage on the enemy's support and reserve trenches, while an inferno of explosions breaks out all along the line of trench to be assaulted-the bombardment of Stokes mortar and trench howitzer batteries posted in or near our front line. Under cover of this bombardment the raiding force .rushes the intervening space.

son Ccotte has been twirling them over in the American league-first as a member of the Red Sox and then as a member of the White Sox.
 Cicotte missed participation in the 1912 world series by hair, for he was transferred to the Chicago club in that year, after he had been turned down and spurned by Jake Stahl as of in- ferior caliber.
 Cicotte has been going along in an even way, winning game here and losing one there. His most success full season was while he was with Lin- coin in the Western league in 1907. He won 3 and lost 10 games.
 If the White Sox land the pennant, it will be largely the work of this vet eran beaver. His work is the most consistent and really brilliant among all the curvers of the great baseball club.

DIAMOND NOTES

Fielder Jones says Sisler is as great as Cobb ever was.
 George Davis. once manager of the Giants and White Sox, is with the Browns as head coach and scout.
 The veteran Terry Turner gets into the game occasionally for Cleveland, and he still is high-class fielder.
 Uncle Robbie is longing to get his fading champions into the first di- vision. It shouldn't be difficult task. Jim Corbett has again picked the Giants to win. Which caused the bookies to lay bigger odds on the Reds. Maybe Connie Mack would lend his white elephant to the SiameSe army. But it would be an awful blow to the allies.
 More and more people are becoming more deeply concerned about the price of eggs than about Ty Cobb's batting average.
 Branch Hickey, president of the Cardinals, is elated over the acquisi- tion of Goodwin, the pitcher obtained from Milwaukee.
 The Browns Hade seven errors in a ball game the other day. Fielder Jones would have been pleasant guy to talk to after the game.
 Jawn McGraw probably couldn't see the joke if Matty. .Rousch, Groh and few more Giant cast-offs should beat him out of the flag.
 '
 Eddie Laf1tte, who was with the Brooklyn Feds and who has hurled for the Paterson Silk Sox of late, has quit baseball to enlist in the army.
 President Wilson has announced that he wants baseball to be continued for the rest of the season at least, which assures world series this fall.
 
 John.y Brock is the name of young catcher who will soon join the Cardi nals. He halls from the Muskogee team of the Western association.
 If the war is responsible for intro ducing baseball as the international pastime, it will atone for much by add ing vastly to the gayety of nations.
 Nobody ever believed that Frank Ba- ker tempered with Pitcher Sothoron of the Browns. It looked like case of sour grapes on the part of the disap- pointed Fielder Jones.
