WHEN BASEBALL GAME
WAS PLAYED FOR FUN
Forty Years Ago Players Re-
Ceived Little Money.
Had to Put Up with Poor Hotel Ac
commodations, and Sleeping Car
Comforts Were Lacking-Sam
Wise Was Playing.

What nice, fat thing your profes
sional baseball player of today has
compared with that which the player
enjoyed before the professional game
was put on a real business basis. Al
Sphinx writes in Cincinnati Enquirer:
Even in 1880, or less than forty years
ago, the players had wonderfully
hard row to hoe, and very few of
them were paid for their playing.
There was only one professional
league in existence at that time, and
the players in it were not paid the
gilt-edge salaries that are given even
the poorest players of today.
Poor hotel accommodations and lack
of sleeping car accommodations were
things. too, that the professionals of
that early day had to put up with.
Players not members of the National
league in that far off day gave their
time and service simply for the SEN
timent that went with the sport and
fun afield.
I recall one team, the Akrons OF
Akron. o., who came all the way from
Akron to st. Louis to play the Browns
In 1881.
There were some great players on
that Akron team, notably Sam Wise,
later played at second on Boston's
champion league team; Swartwood, the
hard hitting fielder, who was later with
Pittsburgh; Charley Morton, who IS
still in the game; Andy Pierce and
many other crackerjacks.
They made the long and dusty ride
from Akron in the day coaches. NOT
one Of them had the price OF sleep
er. They arrived in st. Louis all Gov
cred with smoke and CRIME and dust,
for travelling was dustier and rougner
in those days than it is now.
For their pains the Akron boys were
given four days board at cheap no.
tel in st. Louis and bus ride to and
from the baseball grounds.
But, at that, they were happy-go-
lucky, well satisfied lot, who thought OF
nothing but cavorting on the field and
having a good time.
The st. Louis Reds of the early '70s
were a better team than the Akrons.
Tom Sullivan was their catcher and
Jim Calvin their pitcher, and in their
playing ranks were crackerjacks like
Packie Dillon, Tom Orion, Tom Loftls,
Trick McSorly and John T. Magner.
The top salary on the Reds was sou a
month.

In addition to furnishing new and

for other naval activities, the marine

Charge Wild Man Kills
Off Ranchers' Cattle

Winnemucca, Nev.-A wild
man lives on the Owyhee desert,
a great stretch of bleak, barren
country on the eastern part of
the line between Nevada and
Oregon, according to ranchers.
They said they had seen him
many times, but that no one was
ever able to approach him until
last fall when some riders sur
rounded him and made him talk.
He looked wild, they reported,
and his hair and beard were
long. The men let him go.
Now the ranchmen of that sec
tion are complaining that the fell
low is killing their cattle and
sheep, on which he lives. and
they are requesting the Oregon
authorities to catch him and
look after him.

MATTY LOSES TITLE

All is not gold that glitters.
Some years ago Christy Mat
thewson, while training at Mar
lin, Tex, defeated the champion
checker player Of the Lone Star
state.
Matty bore his title with his
accustomed grace, but now after
all these years he has been sad
dened by the discovery that the
man he played wasn't the cham
pion at the time at all.
Matty, however, swings a
wicked finger over the checker
board as many an opponent, such
as Fred Merkle, can testify to.
Matty says he is now going in
for the "hearts' championship
