hits were timely, but the majority of the others weie thrown nwn by eeij one

It's funny how bard the A s can hit the ball when it di i t niiint. It
lsn is ludicrous, to say nothing of facetiuus, to note how main men ,-ue in.i-
-rooncd on the footpaths when a good whack will send them home. The onlv
'dope we have to offer is that the home-town boys hnve not yet ili-ioiered their
wallop nnd do not know the meaning of a linal punch.
In this series which was lost, foiir-loie. the A's hammered out t.i liiw,

Perhaps in this neglected tpot once played
.S'omc star once pregnant tcith Ihe speed of Cob.b;
Hands that the bat of Wagner might have steayed
i Or leaked to ecstasy the mighty mob.
Full many a gem of purest ray serene
The unknotcn, unsung Bush Leagues bear;
Full many a lluth is born to bat unseen
And tcastcjiis homers on the country air.
Into Ihe Major League's terrific strife .
Their humble wishes never learned to stmy;
Along the dull and Hush League road of life
7'hcy kept the noiseless tenor of their play.

Sometimes You Can't Tell
BACK in ths spring of 1001 a young fellow named Christy Mnthcwson began

Just two years later nnother young fellow named Leon K. Aniei r
(ported, to be christened Leon Kalamity Ames n short while afterward, for
the better he pitched the harder he found it to go out and win.
If any one had suggested ten or fifteen years ago that Leon Kalamity
would still be toiling In the major league sun after Matty had' ceased firing,
mental inspectors would hnve been upqn the suggester's trail inside of nn hour.
Yet Matty censed n u Giant regular bae,k in 1015, working only a few

And here wo hnve Jild man Leon Kalamily stilt breezing nlong three Or

been dwelling moodily in the cellar, trying to build u stairway out. Each
year word has come that Connie hail u new machine of merit under way, hut
j after making u few threatening gestures his people soon dropped back into
I the muck.
I But this season is another affair. .Mr. Mack will spend no great amount
of time in the cellar from now on, for he has u machine that will annoy more
than a few df the hitherto elite, as jou might say.' He has a regular bull club
at last, a hustling, huid-hitting array that is a' better lighting club than his old

By Way of Golf Advice
ONE main trouble assailing the average golfer is an ovenaulting ambition.
Which is to say that he insists on doing nil the work, leaving the club
nothing iu the way of a job.
The club is u deserving specimen nnd shjyld be gitcu a iliuuce. By merely
guiding the cliibhead into the ball, controllidg its impetus without effort, sur
prising distance can oe obtaitied. Wheu in troubli let the club do more work,
without attempting to overwork arms, wrists and body.
