shining light in new role-that Of
scout and coach for McGraw.
Eurkett has passed up a good
.otler from Boston college 10 sign
another contract with the Giants.
Burkett's first service as a Giant
dates back to 1890, when he Joined
the club as a pitcher, only to be
converted into an outfielder be-
cause of his inability to locate the
plate. Two years later he went to
Cleveland. For eleven seasons in
his big league career Burkett bat
ted better than 800 In 1895 he
batted ,423. Hugh Duffy's record
OF .43S in 1894 was the only mark
to beat it, lie hit over 400 three
seasons, the only man to accomplish
that feat in the games history.
BuTkett was a member of the fa-
nous Cleveland spider team of 1895
which defeated the famous Balti-
more Orioles in the Temple cup
series, McGraw now Burkett's
chief, and Hugh Jennings, also as
Isociated with McGraw Of late in the
role of assistant, were in the Oriole
Ilineup. The Spiders won four out

Iyear, however, the orioles licked
the Spiders four straight. The last
defeat was a TO 0 shutout at
cleveland.

soon become about as intelligent

thrown about the harem life, but
from what I've read, it must be a

Al THOUsE IS No
PUBLIC SPEAKE R:
SINGS SENTIMENT

On one Of his last triumphant
tours, Paul Althouse, who appears
here February 2S, at the high
school, sang in a Montana town on
his comprehensive coast-to-coast
trip. AS usual he achieved the
success that is always the rule for
him and rousing social welcome
besides. Nothing would do after
his sensational evening appearance
but that he should be the guest the
next day at luncheon in his honor
given by a well-known club of the
place. AS the train that would
take Mr.. Althouse to his next date
that same evening did not leave till
after o'clock, he accepted the in
vitation. Had he known what was
in store fer him, possibly he would
have refused.
The luicheon took place. Mr..
Althouse occupied the place of
honor Naturally, he was called
upon to make a speech.
Mr.. Althouse rose from his place.
For once the dauntless hero of
many operas at the Metropoli-
tan was non-plussed, as many a
man has been under similar cir
Icumstances. The applause that had
greeted his rising ceased Every
gaze was focused upon him. In the
unnatural silence Mr.. Althouse
cleared his throat and began.
Gentlemen: l do not ktlow why
1t is, but find it far more difficult
to make a speech than to sing. L
err T." the tenor for once was lost
as the words failed to come.
Then the silence was opportunely
broken by a voice coming from the
back of the room. "Say it with
sineing"
The burst of sympathetic laugh
ter that followed the sally was
quickly turned to APPLAUSE as the
noted tenor took the suggestion al
it's worth and strobe towards the
niano followed by his aceompanist
This time when he faced his onlook-
ers, it was not to hesitate for lack
Of appropriate words, for, amid the
| hushed silence again. Mr.. Althouse
started one of the big favorites OF
his program Of the night before
When he had finished, the apnlanse
was literally deafening and Alt
house was able to wind up with the
"T thank you,' just as il he had
