BALL PLAYED BY PRISONERS
Eastern Penitentiaries Have Teams
That Put Up Good Exhibitions
of the National Came

Many prisons and penitentiaries have
baseball teams composed of inmates,
and the national sport has done much
to revive the health and spirits of
prisoners. These baseball teams are
uniformed and play a regular schedule
of games, but Of necessity these games
are always played On the prison home
grounds.
One of the best known prison teams
is that of Sing Sing. 1t is known as
the Mutual Welfare league team, and
last season it won more than 90 per
cent Of games played with visiting
mines. The prison baseball field has
splendidly graded surface, and there
are bleachers for spectators. The team
plays Saturday and Sunday after
Moons. Visiting teams come from New
Jersey and Connecticut. The prison
team has won from some of the best
semi-professional mines in these states.
The Eastern penitentiary in Philadel-
phia has long maintained a baseball
team, and has developed many good
players.

The other clapped him roughly on
the shoulder with saturnine leer and
attempt at jocular fellowship.
'Wen, I thought cha would" he
rasped hoarsely. "We'n meet cha at
the corner by the lumber yard at 80.
Don't you fail to be there now!'
81 won't! I'll be there all right Wv
Tom muttered brokenly. Already in
his cringing soul he felt like the thief
he had pledged himself to become. Oh
heaven, if only
To kill time until the appointed
hour, he dug his numb hands deeper
down into his pockets and wandered
aimlessly on. He had no particular
objective in mind save only the need
to keep moving lest he freeze or go
mad with the strain of waiting. He
shrank from letting himself think of
the deed to which he was about to be
party.
Involuntarily his dragging footsteps
took him back into the more brilliant
~ lighted retail shopping district,
where the crowds already had thinned,
hurrying home to their families and
happy, expectant Riddles with the hOli
day celebration in mind.
The hours dragged slowly by. It
came near the hour for the stores to
close. But still there was time, if
poor Tom had only had money, to
have rushed in, bought the presents
he wanted for the old folks and chill
dren, and caught. the midnight train
back ITO the country. He easily could
reach there by morning and appear as
a joyous surprise to them

And right then, suddenly, he espied
it lying there, almost at his very feet
a big, fat wallet, with not a person
nearer than a hundred yards of him.
Plainly someone had lost it in their
mad haste to get home.
Tom stopped and scooped it up like
a flash. Around the corner he surrep-
titiously examined it. Bills-both
green and yellow, of large denomina-
tions-they fairly stuffed it! There
were seven hundred dollars or more
"a small fortune to the miserable boy
who had not even eaten for fourteen
hours. Money! Money! Money!
Far more than he possibly could need
even in his most extraVagant dreams.
With a gurgling cry. Tom stuffed the
wad Of bills into his trousers pocket,
threw away the fine leather purse and
made a mad dash for the nearest de-
partment store.
No need now to keep his sinister.
criminal appointment-no more neces-
sity for
But the most gladstone feature of
young Toms homecoming that next
day was his blushing announcement to
the old folks that he had had enough
of the big city; that he had come
home to stay, as they had prayed ht
would.
