L from the happy and gay to
the gloomy and morose. Some
times he was mate for Pollyanna,
at other times a ht companion for
a hypochondriac.
There were times when he won
dered what it was all about and
what use it could be. On one OF
these occasions he said:
"1f had my life to live over again,
/ would be a surgeon instead of ball
player. / think 1 could have done
great deal of good in surgery. L
would then have been of some deep
use to humanity"
At other times he decided he would
quit base ball. Often in the last Ave
years did Cobb seriously consider
leaving the game. He intended to
settle down, fish, hunt, read and
enjoy life.

he would say. Down South there
is not the hustle, the hustle. the tear
and wear that you find in the North.
We get something out of life down
there We know what home is and
where: in the North most people be-
lieve that an apartment of a few
rooms is sufficient. We could never
think of such a thing down South.
We know food down there and we
know how to relax. There is not the
battle and strife for the dollar that
you find in the North. Tell me, what
do they get out OF life-these people
that are fighting for fortunes that
few of them ever get? They grow
old and helpless long before their
time, and when they have passed
their usefulness what have they got7

his life, and SO he started out for
Wheeling, which was farther along
tho B. & o. than Mansfield, with q
good pair Of shoes and a lot of deter
mination. He caught enough rides
to make the walking easy and had not
been in Wheeling q week before he
was the sensation Of that part of the
world.
Philadelphia heard of him and OBJ
tanned his release from the Wheeling
Club for the huge sum Of 81, 900. That
price was the highest at the time 1t
was offered that ever had been ad-
vanced for ball player.
Delehanty went to Philadelphia un-
der the guidance Of Harry Wright,
who brought out all the good points
In q wonderful player, and his record
from 1892 to 1903, inclusive, was one
of the best Of which base ball ever
has heard. His batting average in
that time was .367. He made total
of 2,167 hits. Nor does that record
include the season OF 1890, when he
jumped organized base ball and went
with the Cleveland club of the Broth
erhood League. Going back to the
home town nearly spoiled him as
ball player because he had too many
friends.
His last year in base ball was with
Washington. He had fallen or in
batting, but he still was able to hit
the ball better than 800 then.

AHdEIGSlOll, D -, WITH WHICH L was
1t Is said of Mike Brady, winner of
this years metropolitan open champion
ship and twice a runner-up in the ma
tional open, that he made hole in one
twice in a single day, but Ball some
years ago not only made two holes in
one in one day. but secured them con-
secutively. In other words, he played
two holes in two.
So far as l know. this feat stands
alone and is a world record.
A Hole I'm Nothing.
Speaking of holes in one, / had a
rather unusual experience in 1913, in
Scotland, just before l came TO this
country
1t was during a friendly match with
a DR.. Newell, on the municipal course
at Ayr. He was entitled to rather a
liberal handicap, including a stroke on
the 233-yard third hole, and when he
laid his second shot a foot from the
cup for an actual three, which, minus
his handicap, gave him a two, he ap-
peared certain to have won the hole
Ny tee shot had been a very straight
one, but as we approached the green
the ball was not to be seen. Apparently
il had gone over We started to look
for it. when one of the caddies dis
covered it in the cup. | had made a
233-yard hole in one, to win.
But this incident does not begin to
equal the one in which the monu-
mental James Braid, five times open
champion of Great Britain, figured.
Braid was playing with man much
inferior in skill to himself. On
short hole. where Braid had given
handicap of one stroke, his opponent
made the hole in one.
Now Braid was a great enough
player perhaps TO have halved hole
in one, but not even he could tie
or beat a man who had made hole
in nothing!
