. but lost a great many more, and had
to he released. The bottom Of the
Hudson River held his pitching arm. -
Schmidts notebook was in that grip.
He had put it there for safe keeping.
Latham Not Greatest.
Arlie Latham has always been re
ferred to as one Of the great come
dams of base ball, but Arlie could not
compare with either Herman Schaefer
or Nick Altrock as a comedian. La
than had some funny lines and his
imitation Of q monkey was remark
able. but his talent as a pantominist
ended there. He had none Of the stuff
that made Scha effer and Altrock ia
nous as clowns. Schaefer introduced
real cloNling into base ball, and Alt
rock coNinued where Schsefer left off.
Altrock's tight rope walking, his box
T ing bouts, his miraculous catches and
lis slow motion picture stunts are
pantomime classics. Only Schaefer.
| besides Altrock, succeeded as a clown.
but Schaefer was q comedian on and
off the field and was never limited to
pantomime.
Many regarded Walter Brodie as a
comedian, but Brodie was never in
tentionally funny. He always carried
the nickname Of Steve" after the
| immortal Brodie who took a dive off
Brooklyn Bridge. Although Brodie
always played to win. many of the
things he did had an extremely funny
angle and this trait made him a char
acter in his day.
Insists OIL Trial.
/ Charlie Faust. one Of the more re
| cent comedians. came out of the West
| and attached himself TO the New York
! Giants. He insisted that Manager
NcGraw give him n trial and he re-
fused to leave until he was promised
one. There are many base ball bugs"
! but Faust was a scream. 1t was I'M
| possible to get rid of him. Every time
McGraw breathed a sigh Of relief.
| feeling that Faust had departed. he
| bobbed right back again.
1t was just as we'll, I guess, that
| Faust did not leave. for he became a
drawing card. He was so awkward.
SO absolutely lacking in any talent
| whatever, that he was really funny.
| AS long.as he took himself seriously,
| Faust was a distinct asset to the club,
| amusing the players and fans. He
| pitched Tor tried to-. batted, ran bases
and did everything. Each day Faust
| would have his turn at bat in practice
and be permitted to hit one. Invari-
| ably nobody managed to reach the
ball, and Faust slid into first, he got
! up, ran and slid into second he re-
! peated the act at third and at the
| plate. That was the climax of his
! performance each day.
! McGraw released him outright in
| st. Louis. When the club arrived in
| Chicago the next morning, they found
| Faust waiting for them. He refused
| to be fired. He was released again
] at the end of the season, and the next
Spring he wired McGraw tcollecD de-
handing to know why he had not
been sent contract. He was mailed
"a phony contract, as usual. Then he
| wired McGraw (collect) that the
I terms were not satisfactory and that
better figures must pe inserted before
he would sign. McGraw thought he
