NOT NEWS, BUT VIEWS
By PERCY H. WHITING.
Over in MiiuuHHippi the Illinois Central railroad in niiminc
a new aeries of atationa after members of the World’s Champion
baseball team, tieffinning with Comiakey and running right
through the list—.Jones, Walah, Altroek, Donohue, Ilahu, Rohe
and the rest. i
After AtlnntA wins that. 1907 pennant, doubtless we shall
have a string of Georgia towns—Smithville, Koxburg, Jordan-
tmvjj, Caxtroria, Iloffiuanstadt, Winterswurst, Zelierjsboro, Sparks
City, Schoppston and the like.
Spokane was the last town to offer an unlimited purse for
Jeffries, in ease ho re-entered the ring. The Washington burg
was going to give him $110,000 for bis reappearance—win, lose or
draw.
It is to he hoped that a saving sense of humor will put an
end to this siHy business.
Tr. is getting quite as rldiotlftms ns the offers for the deeiding
game between the two Chicago team; in the championship series.
The genial “A. B.” keeper of the baseball park has begun
spring training. ■>
Olsen and Demetrial, tho wrestlers who pulled off “one of
them things” in Atlanta awhile back are now taking a fall out of
Chicago.
If James Pox, the human hnirpin, will kindly come across with
that surprise he announced last fall he will relieve the minds
of a number of wondering fans.
“John T. is the most misjudged mnn who was ever interest
ed in the national game.”—New York Exchange.
A mogul is judged by hia ball club.
And with such a bnsis for forming opinions we can’t think
any too well of “Johnny, the Tooth Brush;” If we had known
him back in the good old days of the clothing business in Imlian-
apolis things might have been different.
Baseball dopesters are sure that Jimmy Del chanty is going to
do well with Ihe St. Louis Browns. Probably so, as he is a wor
thy member of n marvelous baseball family. Wonder what base
ball will do when the youngest of them passes. Second crop
should be nlmost ready to break in by then, though.
Let's nee if Frank has more Sunday games this year than he
did last—as lias been stated—and if last year his team played
hall in New Orleans every Sunday but one; even the dullest of
us can (igure how many he will have this year.
But nobody begrudges him any Sunday games. We don’t
want them here.
