After trying in vain for months to
get house Brown set out one day
with a find-a-house-or-die look on his
face. He wandered about all day with
out being successful, till at last his
steps led him to the river.
"Ah" he said in utter despair, "how
tempting it looks" He was almost
inclined to plunge in and end it all.
All of a sudden he heard splash
and, looking around, he saw his friend
Green struggling in the water With
out attempting to save him he rushed
off to the local house agent.

.EMSLIE AN ARBITER
TWENTY-FIVE YEARS
Famous Umpire First Handled
Indicator in Parent League.
Fans Chide Bob About His WIG and
Tell Him He Is Blind as Bat, but
He Continues to Hold His Own
With Best of Them.

One of the pleasing bits of informa-
tion announced from the National
league offices last winter was the state
ment from John Heydler president Of
the league, that Bob Emslie would be
retained as regular umpire in the
coming season. A few years ago old
Bob was only substitute, but his
work has been so successful during the
last two seasons that Heydler did well
in putting him back on the regular
staff
They may chide Bob about his wig,
writes Frederick G. Lieb, and tell him
he is "as blind as q bat" but just the
same old Bob continues to hold his
own with the best.
The season of 1919 marks Emslie's
twenty-ninth successive year as a Ma
tional league umpire, as he came into
the league on August 10, 1891. On Au-
gust 10, 1916, the National league had
quite a celebration in honor of his
twenty-fifth National league birthday.
Emslie is a Canadian and was born
in that extremely virtuous city Of
Guelph, Ontario, on June q, 1861.
Later in life Mr.. Emslie removed him
self and all his earthly belongings to
the lovely little city of st. Thomas,
Canada, where he now resides. 1t
was many, many seasons ago that
Emslie was first heard of in baseball.
Along in the late seventies a young
hurler was making a great reputation
as an expert in making a baseball
curve and curve in a very deceptive
| manner. Emslie soon gained recogni-
ton as one of the best pitchers in
Canada, which, of course, was not say.
ing much, for there were few hurlers
of class residing within the domains
of Queen Victoria at the period.

Next to the origin of baseball itself
there have been more disputes over
the inventor Of the curve ball, and
next to that the discovery of the
modern spitball is shrouded in mys-
terry, writes l. E. Sanborn in Chicago
Tribune.
Elmer Stricklett, who came out of
the bushes to the White SOX i'll 1904,
has been most generally credited with
being the first to introduce the moist
delivery in practical form. He taught
it to big Ed Walsh, who afterward
became king of the spitters, while
Stricklett never won great laurels in
the majors as a finger.
Gives Credit to Fraser.
Now comes Manager Mitchell of
the Cubs with the assertion that
Chic Fraser, old-time pitcher for the
Cubs and Phillies, beat StriclIlett to it.
The Cub boss declares that Fraser was
mOnkeying with the spitball at least a
year before StriCKlett was heard from,
but Chic never used it much because

Fraser showed Mitchell how to
throw the thing, and Mitch could get
a pretty fair break on it. You re.
member that before Mitchell was a
manager he was a catcher and before
that a pitcher in the major leagues

on the Phillies together that they were

Batsman and Catcher Miss.
Chief thinner was doing most OF
the catching then and Fraser, who was
a great practical joker, cOaXed Mitchell
into throwing splitter to thinner just
to see what would happen in some sit
uatiOn where it didn't matter what die

Mitchell and thinner were WORKING
one day in a game which the Phillie'
had sewed up safely. Near the enc

."Say, kid" said thinner, "we'll have

it was, but they did not use it much,
considering it too risky.
Later on in the season Fraser pitch

Gleason, second baseman, who was
playing close in and tried to nail a
runner scoring from third. Gleason
threw the ball against the grand stand,
then commenced looking over the turf
adjacent to his station, searching for
wet spot on the diamond.
"The ball was wet, Chic" exclaimed
the Kid, and showed his damp hand to
prove it. Fraser explained to him
how the ball got wet. That was an

Jack ChesbrO was the first major

not get perfect control of it and lost
game that might have given the
Yankees the pennant in 1904 by MAX
ing a wild pitch in the ninth inning
Of the next to the last game of the
season.
In recent years the spitball is not
used anywhere nearly so much as the
public believes. There are numerous
pitchers who can use it, but they do
not do so regularly. 1t is merely a
bluff most of the time when they seem
to moisten the ball. That serves to
keep the batsman guessing.
