ID JACKSON
STAR WITH BAT
I K Ty Cobb had continued to bat
1.000 as a Hold-Out League. Joe
Jackson. the South Carolina
whirlwind, would be virtually the un
disputed leader of the American
League batting list. But, unfortu
nately for him, Ty broke back strong,
and. including 'Wednesday s game,
batting .500 for the Reason and
ting better every minute. In looking
over the record, one finds some old,
familiar names all grouped near the
top. notably, Eddie Collins, Speaker
and Lajole.
Doc Johnson, the Cleveland firs;
baseman, who went to the Naps from
the Pelicans, is hitting ,321 and
threatens to be one of those freaks
who bats better in the big leagues
than in the Southern.

SWEDEN TO SEND TEAM
TO BIG PANAMA GAMES
NEW YORK. May 24 Kristian H«ll-
strom. secretary of the Swedish Olym
pic Committee, has written u letter to
a friend in this city that Sweden will
b«- represented by a team of athletes at
the Panama Pacific Exposition in 1915.
The Swedes will travel to San Fran
cisco via New York and make stops
at the principal points between the
Atlantic urnti the Pacific. Hells trom
suggests that there might be a sort of
International meet In New York before
the Swedes start West The plan now
is to bring about a dozen of the best
men. that is. the ones only with a
chance to make a showing
Foremost among those mentioned is
Eric Lemming, holder of the world's
record for throwing the javelin. Wilde,
holder of the Swedish record for the
•nil© run. ami Lindberg, the record
sprinter, are also spoken of as likely

le way was
of trouble
THU following year Bisland began
* playing Honil-professional ball. A
frl* nd of his was performing with the
Pleas intville. N. Y., club, and he cart
ed {{island up tie r© for a tryout. Rlv-
ington made good and played through
the season with that club -they per
formed only on Saturdays. On Sun
days he played occasionally with a
©ml-professional club In Brooklyn.
Between times he worked for a the-
atrleal concern as a stenographer.
The year after that, 1908, Bisland
continued playing o;t Saturdays with
the Pleaaantvlll© club, and on Sun
days he worked with the Hurricane
Athletic Club, of Now York With
both clubs he played shortstop.
* • •
I T was hot weather that drove Bls-
* land into professional ball—and
isn’t it the proverbial irony of fate
that, once in it, he should be sent tf
the not particularly frigid Southern
League to play?
Well, anyhow, it happened like this
In the early summer of 1908 Bisland
had scarlet fever and was pretty
au k for awhile. His strength came
back rather slowly and his family
finally sent him to Atlantic City to
recuperate He got a Job In the
Savoy Theater there -and baked,
broiled and stewed through a terri
ble summer.
“No more of this for me," decided
Bisland forthwith. So he set out in
search of a baseball Job.
He went to a friend of his James
Stafford. This man passed him on
to Dan Brouthers. And Dan rec
ommended that he see Jack McGrath,
who operated some semi-professional
clubs around New York. .lack finally
landed Bisland a position with the
Potts villa club of the Atlantic Out
law League. And the next spring
Bisland Joined this club.
* • •
TIIK career of the Pottsvllle club
* was neither long nor glorious.
It didn't even last till the Fourth of
July. But before it exploded Bisland
made such a grand showing that
Pittsburg signed him immediately.
Now note a peculiar fact: Bisland
has been the property of the Pitts
burg club from that day to this, a
matter of nearly four years. i'RT HE
HAS NEVER PLAYED A GAME OR
EVEN PART OF A GAME WITH
THE PIRATES. Once in his life
he was stuck in to bat in a pinch.
That is the only time in his career
he ever hit a lick for the uplift of
Pittsburg and their celebrated Pi
rates.
The year Pottsvllle and the At
lantic League blew up the Pirates
were going like mad, so Fred Clarke
told Bisland there was no use to
spend the season on the bench and
sent him to Wheeling. He played left
field there.
The next year. 1910, Bisland was
returned by tlie* Pirates to the Wheel- j
ing club and he played grand ball ,
up to July 17.
On that day Bisland was playing '
third base against the Fort Wayne!
club. Reddin. of the Fort Wayne j
club, tried to steal third. The play
was made there anti Reddin slid des
perately. Bisland didn’t give an inch
and Reddin was tagged. Bui as he
was. he drove a spike to its full depth
into Bisland's instep. Bisland went
down in a heap and was carried from
the field.
By bad luck Bisland's wound be
came infected. Blood poison set in
and lie was soon desperately sick. He
was carried to the hospital and stead
ily his condition grew worse.
Finally a consultation was called.
Three of the best surgeons there
looked him over.
Then came the verdict.
“Bisland,” said one, “you’d better
let us operate. We will cut off the
foot, but we can probably save the
leg.’’
“Nothing doing,'" was Bisland’s re
ply.
Still his condition gr©w f worse.
Again there was a consultation. And
again the hospital surgeon came to
him.
"Bisland." he said, very gravely, “we
must operate now not to save your
leg, but to save your life.’’
“No chance,” was Bisland’s reply;
“no use saving my life If you can’t
save my foot. I*et her slide.*’
So they didn’t operate. And he
didn’t die.
Finally, in fact, Bisland began to
Improve, and in time—a long time, it
was -he got well. But it was not un
til Thanksgiving week that he was
able to discard his crutches, and he
could do little more than hobble all
winter long.
• • •
IN the spring of 1911 the Pittsburg
1 club took Bisland to West Bailen
with them and then down into Hot
Springs. His foot was far from well,
and Pittsburg soon sent him to In
dianapolis. He was fortunate in es
caping from this Jinx club after three
weeks of service, and was turned back
on the Pirates. He stayed there a
month and a half and was then sent
to Youngstown. Ohio, in the O. and
P. League, and finished the season
there, playing third base.
This spring Bisland again went to
West Baden and Hot Springs with
the Pirates, and again he was allowed
to sit on the bench.
Finally. with Wagner coming
around ail right and the Infield look
ing pretty good. Manager Clark©
agreed to let him go for another sea
son. and Bill Smith grabbed him.

THORPE AND MEYERS MAY
BE ONLY INDIAN BATTERY
NEW YORK, May 24.—James
Thorpe, once noted amateur, gets a
line in the public prints to the effect
that John MoGraw has finally de
cided the only hope is to make
a pitcher out of him and that Wilbert
Robinson, that patient coach of pos
sible talent, is working daily with the
Indian to perfect him in the use of
a spit ball and a fexv other essentials
to flinging successfully.
If Robinson can make a pitcher
out of Thorpe and he is given his
turn major league fans will see the
only Indian battery in captivity—
Thorpe and Meyers. The Redskin
catcher is said to be very anxious for
Thorpe to make good. It is the pride
of race and he has long cherished the
wish that he might have a native
American for a battery mate. 1

G ILBERT PRICE, the Atlanta
p southpaw, is the leading pitch
er of the Southern League. It
seems improbable, but it is none the
less true. Gilbert has been in about
’steen losing games of late, but has
always managed to escape the blame
for the defeat, because he has been
yanked before it went altogether
wrong or stuck in after it had gene to
the bad. And, thanks to his grand
showing in the early part of the sea
son. ho has six victories and only one
defeat to his credit. Williams, of
Nashville, who made such a wretched
start, is second, und Big Bill Prough
is third.

FOR WILLARD’S DEFEAT
SAN FRANCISCO, May 24.—Fol-
lowers of the fistic game in San Fran
cisco are inclined to hold Tom Jones
responsible in a measure for the de
feat of Jess Willard in his 20-round
bout with Gunboat Smith. {They hold

Kansan had more than an even
chance to be returned the winnexi
A thing that bothered Willard was
the conflicting instructions he re
ceived. Jones would tell him some
thing and Willard would try to fol
low instructions. But while he was
trying to follow Jones’ instructions,
some one in his corner would coun
termand the order and Jess would
stop still, open his mouth and look
around to get the signal.
Several times when Willard was
