all the more wonderful when one consider*
thnt batters nowadays hnve two strikes

ANNUAL LEAGUE MEETING
WILL BE QUITE PEACEFUL
Will Hamilton, generally known a,
’Ham,” has a list of questions on the
sporting page of The New Orleans Item.
Theae questions he considers will come
up at the annual meeting of the South
ern League, which will be held In
Birmingham in the middle of Decern
her.
Here they are:
“No. 1. Will a movement to have
Birmingham's alleged Illegal victories
thrown out be started when the league
directors meet?
"No. 2. Will a movement then be
started to reduce the salary limit or In
crease it?
"Np. 3. Will President Kavanaugh
have opposition to hls re-election?
'■No. 4. Will Little Rock and Shreve
port continue In the .league or will
Mobile and Chattanooga make over-
tures to the association, which can not
be rejected?
“No. 5. Will Manager Frank win the
three protests which he has lodged
against Memphis and other clubs?”
To all except the first part of the
fourth question the answer Is most em
phatically NO.
As to the first question, there Is no
chance but that Birmingham will get
away safely with that crooked Castro
deal. It was contrary to the constltu-
of the Southern League, contrary
to the by-laws of the National Asso
ciation and contrary to all rules of
baseball decency. It was taking an
unfair advantage of every club in the
league and setting a precedent which
will do no good to tho Southern League.
But Vaughn will get away with it.
There Is no disposition to win any
pennants by post-mortem examinations.
Those "Castro games" should-have been
protested soon after they were played
and the matter thrashed out nt pnee.
As no such step was taken they may
now be considered as formally dropped.
Thero will probably be some talk on
the question ot salary limit at the
coming meeting, but nobody on the
Inside seems to expect that anything
will be done. The present limit Is no
better and no worse than any other,
when it Isn't lived up to. The attempt
to keep the teams of the league inside
a salary limit has failed. This has bean
the history of all leagues.
Unless President Kavanaugh has
something unexpected to spring—some
facts brought out by tho league au
ditor, Mose Wormaer, or something that
the public does not as, yet dream of,
then the salary limit question will not
ruffle the Smooth waters of the meet
ing as it did last year.
It Is absurd to ask If President Kav
anaugh will have any opposition for
re-election. He will not. That is set
tled right now. The election goes to
the judge on a sliver platter. There
may be those who do not think that the
Judge makes the best president In the
world, but If such there be they realize
that for the present they aro in the
hopeless minority.
Little Rock and Shreveport wilt con
tinue 1ft the league. Several of the
other clubs would be glad to get them
out. but this li Impossible, practically,
unless some outside club buys them
out. And none of the slubs suggested
are likely to do this.
As to No. 5.
No, Manager Frank will not win
those three protests because he will not
ask that the protests be given a hear
ing. That Dutchman does not care
about games won that way, and If he
had wanted them he would have put
up hls howl earlier.
Judged by nuch Information as Is ob
tainable, the coming meeting of the /
Southern League will be the most
peaceful which the league has ever
known. The present president will be
re-elected, the pennant will be awarded
to Birmingham, the league wilt wrangle
a bit over the division of the various
funds, a lot of words will be used In
telling about the desirability of living .
up to the salary UmlL I
And there you are.

'This playing of baseball In small
town* I* not »o funny a» tt I* cracked
up to be," remarked a young ball play
er returning the other night from i
month'* play In a bu*h league. "
went out Into the Juniper* with an
other fellow a year or two ago and
came near never eomlng back. We
went with a team up In Virginia, and I
wa* playing under the name of 'Jones,'
or ‘Brown'—I forget which. I wa*
pitching and the fellow who went with
me waa catching.
"A big jasper came up to bnt and the
catcher sung out to me, 'Hit him In the
hend.' I sent up a teaser around hls
neck and the next one aa a high one
In, close In. He ducked hi* head Into
tt and It came near knocklpg the life
out of him. He went to first and an
other ond came up.
“ 'Give It to this one In the same
place,’ howled the catcher. ,
"I did not want to hit the fellow, but
the third ball 1 threw up landed In the
batter's neck. He, too, took a base.
The third man came up with a bat In
hls hand, and, stopping outside the
batter's box, warned me If I hit him he
would get me with the bat. I believed
him, too, and gave him four wide ones.
"Pretty soon, with the score tied, I
landed on the pitcher for a home run
and when I came across the plate the
ump yelled, 'You’re out, ye cut second
base.' I had not cut the base at alt and
was craxy mad. The ump said some
thing back and I soaked him for fair.
He fell with hls nose bleeding and
stalled, I think, pretending that he was
worse hurt than he really was. Flrzt
thing I knew the crowd was after me
and I was doing the Duffy act down a
corn field near by. The constable
finally got me and they soaked me 125
for slugging the umpire. They threat
ened to shoot me and cut up generally.
"To get back at 'em we had about
four of them pinched for carrying con
cealed weapona or something of the
kind, and, after letting them sweat In
Jail for two days, the cose was settled.
"They can poke all the fun they want
to at these currant-bush league games,
but the city don't know what they are.
The fellow whose name I was using
went out to a town near by to play a
day or two later, and before the game
started the mayor walked out on the
field nnd up to this fellow.
" 'We know all about you,’ he said:
we heard about your doings, and If yen
crook a finger in this town we’ll HU
your dirty hide so full of lead that they
could use you for an anchor for a river
barge.'
"They would have done that very
trick, and the poor Innocent ball player
was so cowed and afraid that he didn't
even dare to call that ump a dog once
or a bonehead during the whole game.
He even wanted to fight me for using
hls name when he got back to town.
"It Is all right to laugh at these
bustiers at long range, but they are Use
a Montana cow—alt right when you ore
on' horseback, but once they are after
you, It’s tq the trees or a long, swift run
and a dive Into the river.’’—Cincinnati

winning, however, Mr. Tllnon wa*
