though at times he g:ave the Patriots
the raw end of close decisions. About
200 Winstonians were over and they
cheered their men to the last. Spencer
yielded hite in each inning except one.
He hit several players and walked In

least fifteen feet away. Maybe Klock
has a cork center.
That fellow McCarthy is about the
smallest pitcher In the association,
but that is not saying that he can’t
throw as hard and as bewilderingly
as any of the motind-artlsts.
Pitates Lost in
The Ninth Inning
New York, May 20.—After out pitch
ing Lelfield . and putting ,the Giants
within reach of a vlctorj^ over the
Pirates this afternoon, Crndall came
to bat in the ninth and grabbed off the
decision himself with a single that
scored Fletcher with the winning run.
The score was 2 to 1. Both pitchers
were in great form but the fielding
on both sides was ragged at times.

Hugo's privilege to travel the full 20
all his fighting moods. It has been
rounds distance with Billy, and it has
been his misfortune to crumble after
a few of the fierce lightning punches
that Papke out» loose on such occa
sions.
|*apke certainly kept up his reputa
tion as an in-and-outer across the
seas—^^s his early performances with
Dave Smith, Cyclone Thompson and
others will s-how. But he wound up his
Australian career in a blaze of glory—
that is if his winning fight with Dave
Smith is to be his last in Kangaroo
Land.
When Papke w^as in disgrace in San
Francisco owing to a bad looking figlit
with Joe Thomas, 1 asked him l&ow
he accounted for the fact that, in some
of hisr fights he seemed the personifica
tion of force and speed, while in oth
ers he was as slow and Ineffective as
the traditional ice wagon.
“I can't tell why it is so, but I’m wil
ling to admit it’s a true bill,” said Pap
ke. “There are times when I simply
can't get started, try as I may. It was;
that way with Joe Thomas and It was
that way when I fought Ketchel both
times In San Francisco.”
From which it will be seenjthat Pap
ke is quite ready to admit that his
ring performances are not by any
means of an even character.
It was often said that Ketchel was
the only man of hiS' poundage Papke
really feared and for this reason now
that Ketchel has passed away. It Is be
lieved Papke will make things hum in
middlewight division when he returns
to his native heath.
But it is as well to remenaber that
Sam Langford keeps insi'lstlng it is
easy for him to come in as a middle
weight and, if Langford goes about
proving his claim in a business-like
way, it seems as though Papke will
have a second Ketchel to reckon with.

as I pick ' p the ball. He runs about
twenty feet past the bag and
slows up. Suppose I am almost sure
he Intends to return to second and stop
there and suppose I go through on his
belief and peg to second base in the
hope of nailing him. And also suppose
he is just bluffing and starts for
third the minute he sees me throw to
second. If he reaches third safely, as
he probably does, I look like like a
‘bone head.’ If he does come back
toward second and my throw gets him,
it’e a good play._ But It Is a very
unsafe play. As a general rule I must
throw to third base and makd sure
that he won’t try for that bag rather
than take the chance of nipping him off
second.
“Other problems come up when run
ners are on third and second, or third
and first, and a fly ball is hit :to
me. Unless I am reasonably sure
there is a good chance to prevent
the run I must throw to the
plate, for that would enable the run
ner at second to go to third or the
runner on first to go to second. Those
are all matters for an outfielder’s Judg
ment, and don’t you ever believe he
doesn’t feel sore when his Judgment
is wrong.
“Low line, drives are a source of
trouble to outfielders. Sometimes a
man is sure he wouldn’t be able to
catch one of them on the fly and so
moves back to be certain of getting it
on the fifst hop and prevent its get
ting past him. And sometimes the
manager and the fans think he ought
to have tried it on the fly, and he is
•called.’ It’s another matter of judg
ment and a mighty hard thing to de
cide at timed.
“In addition to the ordinary difficul
ties attendant on catching fly balls,
throwing, stopping ground balls, or
chasing long drives, outfielders have
other things to contend with, such as
a bright sun, or dark clouds, a high
S’ky, a bad wind, a rough field, a grand
stand which makes it impossible to see
a ball while It first leaves the bat. Why
there are a hundred difficulties if I
had the time to think of them all.
“No, sir, they'll never get me to
pay admission to a ball park for the
privilege of playing the outfield. It
isn’t such a cinch as some people pro
fess to believe.”
Rowing Game
Continued from page Ten.
The sporting editor of The News
is in receipt of a certified check
from Fi#irt Hudson, the fast wrestler,
for $50, guaranteeing his appearance
here for a match with Joe Turner.
Now, this looks like business.
and former crew men who took the
article to refer to me and asking me
to deny it. The "Old Man” used in
reference to a crew coach 1b most of
ten applied to myself or to EHis
Ward, of Pennsylvania. Fbr myself I
can say that for the 28 years I have
been teachii^g boys to row not one of
them sever sat In a shell under the In
fluence of any drug. Hundreds of crew
men all over the United States will
testify to that. Further, I know Ellis
Ward well enough to be certain that
those are not the training methods ha
employs.
I have heard of cases where foot
ball men and track men were drugged
before Important contests but I oe-
lleve that the custom is not now so
popular as it was once. Any coach
who will drug, his men should be
serving time instead of training ath
letes. The system is pernicious, despic
able, and should be made criminal.
Furthermore, there ought to be no
occasion for the use of stimulants. An
athlete in good condition and proper
ly trained should not “go stale.” If
he does, it is the fault of the coach.
The amount of training necessary
in order to get a crew on racing edge
is in direct proportion to the length of
the race. Tbat is to say, only about
one-half of the work necessary in pre
paration for a four-mile race -will be
required in training for a two-mile
race. Although I do not believe in the
four-mile race for college crews, I
am not in sympathy with writer^who
expostulate abotit the “deadly fourth
mile.” An oarsman can be trained into
Londition to row four miles without
injury to his health, but with an un
dergraduate oarsman, either his uni
versity work or his training must suf
fer. A student cannot attend to both
properly, and as we can not afford
to have the four-mile event result dis
astrously to the crew or to the oar&man
himself, his university work must
be the department to be slighted.
I have never seen a four-mile race
where the outcome woul^ have been
different had the race been for three
miles. It would take 25 per cent lese
of the, student’s time to prepare for
a thre^mile event. Therefore, I consid
er the three-mile race preferable for
college oarsman. After all, boys come
to college primarily to get an educa
tion and rowing is not an essential part
of that education—it should always be
a secondary consideration.

The Reason I Advertise
What are the newspapers for if not
to circulate information? What more
valuable information can a news
paper give than to tell a sick man
where he can be cured?.
A physician’s success is in reality
judged by the number of patients he
has and the number of patients he
has depends upon his ability to cure
disease.
Any man, whatever may be his
qualifications, must make good—must
stand the test of years, before the
public will believe in him.
If he has confidence in himself—
knows h6 can cure, the he should let
the people know.
W’hat a pity it would be if the
whereabouts of some doctor with his
wealth of science and experience
should fall to become known to some
poor, unfortunate person who needed
his services, through want of adver
tising.
A really able man, whatever may be
his gifts, makes the greatest" mistake
of his life if he fails to use those gifts
for the benefit of humanity.
If a man has devoted his life and labor to the study of a special
class of diseases, the necessity of his saying so becomes all the more
pressing. His duty to advertise becomes imperative.
I have worked faithfiflly to establish a reputation by giving each pa
tient honest, conscientious service, and I strive hard to retain this repu
tation. All my professional life I have been studying how to cure
diseases where others fail, and above all, to oure to stay cured, and
have successfully demonstrated that my knowledge acquired by many
hours of hard work, is daily successfully curing many otherwise con
demned to chronic - invalidism.
Following are a few of the diseases I treat: Chronic diseases of the
Lungs, Heart, Stomach, Liver, Kidneys, Bowels, Bladder, such as
Bronchitis, Shortness of Breath, Palpitation, Dyspepsia, Loss of Appetite;
Constipation, treated in a most scientific manner. Hemorrhoids (piles),
women treated in the most satisfactory manner. My home treatment
is pleasant to use, gives good results, and all chronic and special dis
eases Included in my specialty.
