Tho sob stuff lias been furthcoming both in poetry and prose and everbody lias hod t. chanco to lament the Koine of tho original United States inhabitant. "l.o" niuj hao been '-poor." but ho has ben n rich subject for the human Interest chroniclers. Not onlj has the Indian been disappearing bciituII. but he has been SOlns in baseball until the departure of Chief Mender painfully sURRests the fact that for the first time In many, many jears there will not bo a Wfr league lndlun plajlnR as a t'cRiilar. The Indian used to be the blR fad in baseball! This was some tl no before the Cuban became a diamond nov elty, BIr league teams used to hotly bid for the red men who had done big things at Carlisle or in some bush league outllt. f The best known big league Indian players of modern times were IJlg Qhlht Meyers and Big Chief Bender. Meyers came from Dartmouth College to tho Giants after a period of working up with HarrlsburR, Lancaster, SUtto and St. Paul. He was McOravv's leading backstop for seven straight ;ars, beginning In 1909, and the last two seasons was on the staff of tho Brooklyn Dodgers. Now he has passed out of the big ring and has been offered an uncertain berth with his old fiiend and battery mate, (Jeorge jyiltso, who is bookeJ to manage the new International League team at Buffalo. Meers came from California and now Is In his thirty-sixth ear. Chief Bender spent his entire professional diamond rarcer with tho two big league teams of this city with the exception of one fitful session In the Fedelal League with Baltimore, lie came to Connie Mack straight from Carlisle lu 1903 and went twelve consecutive seasons. He wound up with a sensational come-back with the Phillies last car and has retired to make munitions, having tefused to sign the contract tendered .him this year, Render came from a Minnesota reservation and is the same age ns Mejcrs. The present situation leaves only two Indians players In the big leagues', iCnd neither of these Is a regular. One of these Is Jim Thorpe, who is hang ljiB around the Olnnt camp to pinch for the outfield role, and the other Is Ben Tincup, vvh6 has u slender tenure as et upon a utllltj pitching berth "with the Phils THE most noted Indian plujer the game has seen was Sockalexis, who made a flashy splash ns n member of the Cleveland outfield ,,. years nco. He soon blew up from constitutional Indian weak- ! ness and passed entirely from the scene. ttt "J7 I This Schaefcr Is One Irrepressible Bird ANY bug who thinks he is familiar with big league line-ups will please -take a squint at this list of pinjera and gues which team they repre- rWttU 'Williams, first base; Schacter, seconu uase. nun. miuhbiup, uuaim -svj Wood, left Held. The correct answer ts Cleveland, incse names appear- Jng In tho line-up of Thursday's game at Detroit, lu which tho Indians Roundly trounced the home squad. The main featuie of the pastime was the playing of these substitutes, very one of whom doing something to bring through u decisive victory. I-fltl Schaefer at second was all over the lot. grabbing groundeis and making hallelujah throws, this Juvenile phenom being none other than tho erstwhile Germany, now disporting the war title of "Duko" instead of tho opprobr.ous Teutonic cognomen. Duke looked after six swell chances without a bobble Tpmd was so all-fired kittenish that he stole a base. Halt, subbing at short for Hay Chapman, accepted four chances with out a ml'scue and lammed out three hits. He nlso swiped a cushion. And Joid Smoky Joe Wood batted to the tuno of 1.000 in left field. He hit Isafely his onlv time up. Onslow and "Williams also made a hit each, the 'latte- coming through with a tuo-sacker. 4 The Cleveland team at present is on a war basis suie enough. Uncle Sam's toll from that club was big enough, but since the season started It ihUs required a young hospital to tako care of crippled soldiers. Graney jhaa been laid up und Is not et In shape, although he has played once or twice, while others ailing at the. present time are 'Wambsganss, Chapman, nkavanaugli and Morton.

Condition, I think, rrtoro than an thing else. Of course, I have alvvajs believed that a batter ' hi born and not made. A natural hitter will undoubtedly become a better batter with coaching, but lie must have some ability first. "If a man keeps lu good physical condition his eye Is bound to. bo clear.
