SUFFERS
AS BATTING SLUMPS

vi the GInef mana the ankeeS
are easily depressed. Batting slumps
are part Of baseball. No matter
how great hitter the individual,
there are times during the season
when he suffers slump.
Batting slumps are uneTpiainable.
They just happen. When couple
of good hitters slump, it is very of
ten contagious, the inability to hit
spreading through the entire team.
1t is at such times that the New
York Americans look like the or
binary ball club. 1t is not team
that fights it hardest when in such
slump, but rather team that takes
it as a matter Of course. Such an at
titude has at several times nearly
proven fatal to the clubs chances.
Failure to hit naturally affects
the temperament and spirit of the
player or players. In great many
cases the slump in batting is fol
lowed by a similar let-up in the field.
Worry over both, invariably clogs up
the thinking apparatus, and it is not
the unusual to have a bunch of dumb
plays work themselves in to the pic
ture.
A team made no of free-swinging
hitters, batters with a tendency to
hit for extra bases, is the type most
liable to suffer batting slumps. The
New York Americans is just such a
team

the cable that Dewey had sent to
President Mckinley which was as
follows:
In my opinion these people Gilt
piuos) are superior i'm intelligence and
more capable of self government than
the natives of Cuba and l am familiar
with both"
Congressman King then recitcd the
preamble to the Jones law, passed
August 20, 1916, and declared it was a
definite pledge Of independence. The
preamble stated 'it is as it has always
been the purpose Of the people Of
the United States to withdraw their
sovereignty over the Philippine Islands
and to recognize their independence as
soon as stable government can be
established therein"
Congressman King stated there was
no question but that the FniuinOs had
established the specified stable GOV
ernmcnt and, therefore, it is the
solemn duty of the United States to
grant the promised Independence.

Much Cause for conaratuIatlon.

Labor day is always an inspiration
to the organized workers Of America.
Nationally, upon this Labor day, the
workers of America have much to con-
gratulate themselves upon. The past
four years have resulted in the realiza-
tion of labor's hopes long deferred, in
the enactment of laws guaranteeing
the liberty Of the toilers and their
right to organize for their protection
and advancement upon the economic
field.

The Know Him" editor feels. this morning. as if he had scored n great success over the town. Shame on you for not knowing James s. North of the C. J. White company. He was born and raised here. more of you should have known his profile. As it was only four people out of 31 recog- mixed him from the silhouette-yet it was a good one of him. We rather suspect that we received but a few guesses because so many were con- fused by his profile. Better luck next time. folks. Miss McNulty of 317 Lincoln street was the person guessing him correctly and gaining the dollar. others who were right were, George Feroieto. Ruth Hickok and J. W. Irving. Peculiarly enough on the eve of ladies' night in the contest a lady guessed right first
 Many of the guessers last night were of the opinion that the silhouette was of J. C. Loomis of the Commercial Trust company. He received 9 guesses F. w. Holmes of the Home Banking and Realty company got 2 guesses. both of them receiving more than the actual person represented. ;.
 Now for the ladies. As announced last evening we are going to consider the guesses of the gentler sex only this evening unless none of them guess right when the prize of one dollar will go to the first man making a correct guess. Other rules are the same-the first correct guess received at the Herald office wins. Names and addresses of the contestants must be written upon the sheet of paper as we'll as the guess. No phone calls will
 be accepted. Ladies. do you know
