MANY CHANGES IN
BASEBALL SCORING
Baseball Writers Approve Ail But
tbe 'Cincinnati Base Hit" in
Referendum Vote
A number of changes will be made
in baseball scoring; as the result of the
vote taken by the Baseball Writers'
Association of America on proposed
changes made by the rules committee
and referred to the members.
Practically every change met with
unanimous approval but the "Cincin
nati base hit." This ruling, which
last year was to give a batsman credit
for a hit when a play was made to get
a base runner going to a base, but,
■ being too late, was the bone of con-,
tention. On the vote polled 35 mem
bers voted against continuing the rule,
while 26 were in favor of it. Most of
the opposition to the ruling came from
Chicago and New York. Philadelphia
writers were divided on the question,
so were the Hub scribes, while in
other cities in the West the "Cincin
nati" WHS in favor. Jack Ryder, of
the Cincinnati Enquirer, fathered the
rule, but now that the baseball scribes
have come out flat-footed against it
the pitchers will benefit and the bats
men suffer.
There was quite a difference of
opinion on the stolen base ruling. It
was suggested this year that a base
runner should be given credit for a
stolen base as soon as he made a start
to steal a base prior to a battery error.
l,ast year if a man started to steal
and a battery error was committed on
the same play the error was charged
up, but no stolen base. This year the
rules committee suggested giving
credit to the base runner and also
crediting the battery error to whom it
belonged. There was some opposition
to this, but not enough to change the
new ruling.
Hereafter a batsman will get credit
for a sacrifice, no matter whether the
fielder catches or drops the ball, as
long as the base runner scores. Of
course, if the fielder drops the ball,
he will get credit for an error, but the
miscuc will not rob the batsman of a
sacrifice hit, providing, of course, the
base runner scores on the play.
Another new change is that only one
assist will be given any player who
assists, in running down a man be
tween tho bases, no matter how often
. he handles the ball.
Ail error shall also be charged to a
player who prolongs the life of a base
runner. An instance: With Cobb
caught fairly off first on a snap throw
by Bender to Mclnnis, but. Stuffy in
his eagerness to tag Tv drops the ball.
This prolongs Cobb's life, so therefore
Mclnnis gets credit for an error. Last
year no error was given on such a
play.
TAKE SALTS ID
FLUSH KIDNEYS
Eat less meat if you feel Backachy
or have Bladder
trouble
Meat forms uric acid which excites
and overworks the kidneys in their
efforts to filter it from the system.
Regular eaters of meat must flush
the kidneys occasionally. You must
relieve them like you relieve your
bowels; removing all the acids, waste
and poison, else you feel a dull mis
ery in the kidney region, sharp pains
In the back or sick headache, dizzi
ness, your stomach sours, tongue is
coated and when the weather is bad
you have rheumatic twinges. The
urine la cloudy, full of sediment.; the
channels often get irritated, obliging
you to get up two or three Umes dur
ing the night.
To neutralize these irritating acids
and flush off the body's urinous waste
get about four ounces of Jad Salts
from any pharmacy; take a table
spoonful in a glass of water before
breakfast fcr a few days and your kid
neys will then act fine and bladder dis
orders disappear. This famous salts
is made from the acid of grapes and
lemon juice, combined with lithia, and
has been used for generations to clean
and stimulate sluggish kidneys and
stop bladder irritation. Jad Salts is
inexpensive; harmless and makes a
delightful effervescent lithla-water
drink which millions of men and
women take now and then, thus
avoiding serious kidney and bladder
d iseases.—A dvertisement.

favored by the fans.
| Attlcks is leading the league at the

I Tri-State Outlook

! Assurance that Charles F. Carpenter
j will resign as president of the Tri
, State League at the meeting in Phila

George T\ Grahaiw has developed new
j Tri-State spirit in many a good base-
I bail town of the Sta.te. The prospects
I for an eight-club circuit are growing
brighter every day.
; From Pottsville comes thu news that.

jNo baseball club has represented it
I since the Atlantic League died. With
| the allowance of Sunday ball in the
it own, Pottsville looks good as the home
lof a club to some backers of th«
j Tri-State. It is said the organization
of a club at Reading will assure the
Pottsville club.
Allentowrt has decided to stay in the
.league and financial support was
] pledged at a meeting held (n that city
i last night. There will be a change in
I the conduct of affairs, as Dr. A. H.
. | Balliet, president of the club, will re-
Uign and Kred J. Lanshe" will be elected
:to the place. Ulll Coughlin, who has
retired as manager, will probably go
to the New York iijtate League to man
age a club.v Allentown reports sny he
will be succeeded by some' playing
manager.
With the Reading and Allentown
clubs well organized, and the possi
bility of a club at Pottsville, and some
talk of one at Kaston, the Tri-State
circuit looks like a triangle, with easy
i jumps along all sides. On one side
1 will be Kaston, Allentown, Reading
and Pottsville; on the other Harris
burg, York, Lancaster and Wilming
ton. Altoona and Johnstown, poor
possibilities this season, would make
longer jumps.
Central Pennsylvania

Final arrangement of the schedule

Frank Stees, the president of the

nounce his plans for governing the

taken up is the discussion of players

The first game of the senior bas

night at the Young Men's Christian
Association, Second and Locust streets,

QUESTION OF GIRLS
BATH CAUSES RIPPLE
Girl Gives Emphatic NO SIR! to
Question of Federal White
Slave Officer
The question of pretty Alice Heck
ert's bath caused a considerable ripple,
in January quarter sessions this morn
ing.
Mrs. Heekert is one of the star wit
nesses of the prosecution against Men
del Gross and Florence Wilson,
charged with pandering. The trial be
gan before Judge Rush Gillan in No. 2
room this morning and the case was
ready for the jury late this afternoon.
In brief, the prosecution, conducted
by J. Clarence Funk, the federal
white slave officer, was to the effect
that Gross had presented 18-year old
Mrs. Heekert and her 17-year-old
companion, Mrs. Hattle Fleck, to tho
Wilson woman, who conducted one of
the houses of the character now in tho
police limelight.
In trying to show the alleged dis
reputable character of the place Mr.
Funk asked the witness whether or
not she did loaf about the house in a
pink kimono. She said she did. The
garment wasn't hers, however, she
declared, but had been loaned to her
by the Wilson woman. Then W. J.
Carter, who, with W. h. Eoeser, is
counsel for the defense, took a hand
at cross-examination.
"Isn't it a fact." demanded Mr. Car-]
ter, "that Miss Wilson loaned you this I
kimono, her own kimono, so that you
could take a bath.''
"SIR!"
"That you might take your bath,"
reiterated Mr. Funk.
"What?" Plainly the pretty wit
ness was more than amazed.
"That you might take your bath,"
again insisted Mr. Carter.
"NO, SIR!" finally exploded Mrs.
Heckert.
Bold Robbery at the
' Verbeke Market Is No
Bold Robbery at All
Attendants at market, were looking
for a bold robber this morning when
a package containing thirty-seven
pounds of beef disappeared from a
stall at the Verhrke street market
house.
The beef was ordered from the
Brelsford Packing and Storage Com
pany. It arrived and was placed in
the stall by its owner who turned
about for a few minutes. When he
looked again the package of beef was
gone. While everybody in the mar
ket was looking for the thief the
Brelsford driver returned with an
other package. When the owner ask
ed him about it, he learned that the
driver had taken the firßt package
to the plant when he discovered that
he had delivered the wrong package.
The thief proved to be only a mis
take.
