NEGATIVE MAN NOT POPULAR.
Habit Some Have Of Always Looking
on Black Side Of Things Is to
Be Oeplored.

Is there a negative man among
your acquaintances? They are quite
common, and if there is one in your
circle you are fully aware of his ex-
istence.
What is a negative man? He is
the man who always sees the mega
tive side, the black side, the deplOr-
able side; the man who remarks,
Did you ever see such a miserable
exhibition Or, odd you ever hear
of such a tomfool thing?" Or "Did
you see in this mornings paper that
bullheaded statement? - and so on.
indefinitely.
The negative man is so from tenn
perament or from habit or a mixture
of the two. 1t surely is a habit with
some people, and the habit is not
hidden beneath a bushel.
The dycd-in-the-wool negative
man must be very uncomfortable
company for himself to Judge by his
customary conversation when with
others. One such negative man for
a period Of two weeks was not heard
to open conversation with an afirma-
tive remark.
The negative man may not be
wholly tiresome, he may in fact be
very amusing at times, but his mega
t~iveness is his dominant character
istic. There are no bright colors in
his spectrm.-The Three Partners.

Talk Of Boycott
Of Mays Stopped

L New York, Aug. 31.-President Ban
Johnson of the American League
put a sudden stop to all the talk
about the proposed boycott of Carl
Mays in this city when he sent word
to all the club owners to instruct
their players to drop the matter.
President Johnson was here for a
short time and talked with Col. Jacob
Rupert, president of the Yanks.
Mr.. Johnson said he had instruct
ed all the clubs to drop the talk
about barring Mays from baseball as
result Of his accidentally hitting
Ray Chapman In the head with Il
pitched ball, which resulted in the
latter's death.
4The talk about boycotting Mays
was preposterous." said Colonel
Rupert, and l am glad that Mr..
Johnson put a stop to it,
1t has developed that it was only.
a few hot headed players in Boston
who started the proposed boycott.
Ever since the pitcher left the Bos-
ton club last season to come to the
Yankees there has been a bitter feel
ing against him in the Hub.

BY NORMAN E. BROWN.

Both big league races to date have
been about the merriest little scram-
bles that fans could wish for-and a
little bit too merry for the birds with
weak hearts. And of the to scram-
bles, the National leagues has been
the more thrilling. The Indians have
been leading the pack in the A. l..
most OF the season, despite the on
slaughts of the White Sox and the
Yanks on the upper berth But
the Dodgers, Giants and Reds have
made the National league printers
dizzy by the way in which they
have chased each other in and out
of the top shelf.
1t looks as thp these three teams
would fight it out to the wire. And
also 1t looks as tho the n. L. fans
would have new pennant team
when the. smoke clears away, for the
cinci Reds appear to have the least
chance to cop. MOran's team looks
far different from the championship
team, of, last, season. The teams
