TO MARTIN MAY < 19% PEACHTREE UPSTAIRS STRICTLY CONFIDENTIAL UNREDEEMED PLEDGES y FOR SALE MR MAGNATES APPEAR TO BE MONEY mo By Sam Crane. NOTHING can show better co msnatojouiuioo juaixa mp.w and the grab-all policy that super, red the rentimem that once existed for baseball than the stampede by all hands who think they have a possible look-in to the golden harvest that the next world’s series is expected to produce. It is nauseating to one who has the welfare and permanency of the national gatne at heart to see the money mad, hysterical efforts be ing made to share in the "divvy” by those who have no right at all to be declared in on it. "To the victor belongs the spoils" should be the mptto adopt ed for all world’s series. It has been so in the past and ought to be in the future. What sportsmanship is there in fourteen clubs, w ith the players be longing to them, getting a “whack" at world’s series receipts, that they did not do anything toward winning except to play against the two clubs that came out ahead in.their respective leagues? Why. it is the most ridiculous tiling ever heard of and entirely foreign to all past ethics of sport ing contests in which superior abil ity stamps the winners and showers on tile victor all the honors and emoluments. Big Scramble For Spoils. The $490,000 that was taken in at the gates of the Polo grounds and Fenway park during the battle for the world's pennant between the Bostons and Giants has caused such a frenzied scramble by rabid ly hungry club owners and players to sink their hands into the grab bag that they have made them selves the laughing stock of the country. By their clamor to get their hooks on money they have abso lutely no right to have covered themselves with ignomy and the national game as well. What reasonable argument can the clubs, other than New York and Boston, advayice that they should share in the worhd's series receipts? They surely had an equal chance with the Giants and Red Sox to win tile championship of their own leagues. Because they did not have a Mc- Graw Mathewson. Marquard, Doyle. Murray, Stahl, Wood, Speak er, Hooper or Wagner was no fault of the winners. 1 Both the Red Sox and Giants won the pennants of their leagues on their merits, and there was not a flaw on their titles and right -to play for the world’s championship. Something to Play For. What is any athletic contest but to decide the best man or team? Tile instant that any of tlie fruits of victory are shared by the loser or losers then the spirit of rivalry is eliminated and there is no contest. The matter comes down to a pos sibility of connivance or suspi cion of it anyhow, and then good bye to interest, and when that is killed what is left to promote the sport or to perpetuate it? That the Giants, Cubs and Pi rates have uniformly won cham pionships of the National league is no argument that they should share with their less successful rivals. They have had teams of superior ability. The other clubs have had the same opportunities* as was in stanced by McGraw making a win ner out of the Giants, a team that when he took charge of it was close to being a tail ender. We do not hear of any of the rivals of the Giants, Cubs or Pi rates throwing up their hands and retiring from the baseball business. And why not? Simply because the Giants, Cubs and Pirates make the other clubs a most profitable living. It is not luck that gives the "big three” their success; it is superior ability in all departments, even to club ownership. BLOOD POISON Piles and Rectal Diseases CURED TO STAY CURED.

OM the pages of baseball his tory the name of the house of Delehanty is written in letters as glistening as the re sounding monikers of the house of Hapsburg or Hanover or what ever near-beer name you choose on the annals of Kurope. The Delehanty family is to the national pastime what the Booths and the Drews are to the stage or the McCutcheons to Indiana liter ature. F*ive brothers of the clan Delehanty starred as big leaguers and four of these graduated to the majors from Southern fields, which' gives the Southern league an av erage of .750 considered fairly good by even the tnost requiring of base ball experts. Os course, the greatest of these, the incomparable Ed, the hardest hitter the game ever knew, did not graduate from the South. That was before a Southern education in things baseballic was made popu lar by T. Cobb and N. Rucker and a few Others. Hi knew of Dixie, though, from his elder brother. Tommy Delehanty. who second based and outfielded right here in Atlanta in the early nineties. He afterward went to Cleveland. But he was a sincere admirer of the educational methods employed in Dixie and each of his ’ three younger brothers, were told by him to go South, young man, before they aspired to conquer things in the big tent. Jim Delehanty, next in fame to Ed, had a remarkable Southern league record.

Little Rock on the map and he also wiped it off. All of which is some considerable feat for even a demon athlete of Jim's prowess. Little Rock, it may be known, is the home, abiding place and polit ical stronghold of William M. Kav anaugh, perpetual president of the Southern league, with a few other titles in baseball in general. When Jim Left Town Died. It might be supposed that the esteemed Judge Kavanaugh was to some extent responsible for Little Rock's athletic name and fame. Not so, for he couldn’t keep the Arkansas city as a railroad stop in the Southern league after Jim Del ehanty had departed that clime. Even the mighty Tris Speaker tried and he, too, there registered his lirst, last and only failure. Little Rock was considerable of a baseball burg in tile days of Del ehanty. Those were the early days of the reorganized Southern league. Mique Finn was manager there and for several years Mique used to light it out to the finish, first with Newt Fisher, then with Charley Frank, for the pennant. He failed ti. land, but he always answered “present" when roll was called for the select company at the close of the season. All this time Jim Delehanty was playing various infield positions and whanging the whatever is the proper name for the nether regions out of the pill. As long as Jim stayed Mique won. When Jim went Mique was helpless. Finn strayed to Toledo, then came back South to Nashville, where he failed, and never prospered again until last season with Mobile. May- be he had forgotten all about Dele hanty by that time. Delehanty Went to Detroit. Delehanty's big league career !• well letnembered. He made a slow start, but afterward became one of the most formidable of the Detroit Tigers. His too close touch with the revolt spirit after last season’s famous Ty Cobb incident caused his undoing and he dropped out. The other two brothers, Joe and Frank, each had big league careers after working in the South. Joe played splendidly for Memphis and was called up, but drifted to the Eastern league. He lost his throw ing arm, though, and was canned by Buffalo. Frank Delehanty was the stormy petrel of the Southern league. He started with Montgomery and played a prominent part in a player revolt there. He went to Birming ham and made things miserable for old Harry Vaughan. Clark Griffith, then of the Yankees, thought he could tame him, and took him to New York. He was untamable. He played with Louisville a few years ago when Louisville won a pennant. Since then he. too, ha» passed. But. all in all, the South never knew greater baseball men than the brothers of Ed Delehanty. "There could be no better medicine than Chamberlain's Cough Remedy.
