J. McLaughlin, who did It In Lansing, Mich- la 1902. McLaughlin, by the way, umpired all the season In : the Carolina League wtth splendid "results, and when the Carolina League season enoea ne fin ished out In . the Eastern Carolina League. .. k ' Owner Tavlnr ' of the Boston Amert can club, la endeavoring. to have Ty Cobb barred from the Boston grounds for using vile and abusive language to the bleacher Inmatea. The measure la a precaution to save Cobb's life, as half a dozen huge nave tnreater.ea kill him. The great swatter's dia mond medal is still In hock at a ho tel here.. The precedent established when Jim Delehanty was barred from the Cleveland grounds tor a year ir the same kind of an offense Is the araTumeot that will be used by Pres idenj John I. Tsylor, f the local club, when he will' ask that the same pen ally be applied to the fiery Southerner. Before tVavIng for Cincinnati Col onel Dreyfuss said: "If the New York baseball team should win the pennant in the National League race,. . they will have established something and, a record in basebalL- , They are now confronted with one of the hardest propositions that ever faced a' ball team, that of playing forty games 4n twenty-nine playing days, and as they are leaders In the league race now. It is etertaln that wo are all aftr them and will give them the hardest aorx of a fight McGraw's pitchers have something ahead of them that never confronted any other corpa. Math ewaon Has told McGraw that he will pitch every other day If necessary to win the pennant Thin Is com mendable, but a question that con fronts McGaw Is whether he will ruin Mathewson pitching him every other day. New York has twelve games with the Quakers and I don't think those Phillies will be as easy for New York in the closing games M they have been in the past" ' Manager John McGraw Is authority for the statement that the New York National League baseball club will clear 1200.000 this season. McGraw bases his calculations on the gate re ceipts already received and on the big crowds that are sure to witness the games at the Polo Grounds'durtnf the team's stretch of twenty-two noma games, beginning September 8th. While the exact ngurcs nave- noi been mrnie public, It is known that tho receipts of the Plttsburg-New York scries, from July X4th to Ith. In New York, were up to that , time the Urgent ever taken In for a series of baarbull games. The gate receipts for the (ilaiitn-Plttshurg games were exceeded by the contributions of the fans whon the Giants met the Chi cago Cubs in Ilia series 01 August 7th to llth. . Thi' additional grandstand accom modations now inx erected at tne Polo (Jrouiuis will bring the seating capacity up to 25.000. Hence the cal culalinnit that the profits of the Giants during th exciting games to come, that will liei'idc t.'ie National League ohamplinhir. will reath the tremen dous Bin" named. - I v The Cincinnati Reds are not going to have a monopoly Of professional baseball in Cuba this year..

That nirov -una made by the agents of. a sporting goods house In Havana who are perfectly responsible.

' ' s.V-;; Concerning the report emanating from Boston that Ty Cobb, of Detroit would be barred from the Boston grounds for one year aa a result of his difficulties there, as was Dele hanty. of Washington, for improper language on the Cleveland diamond. President Ban Johnson, of the Amer? lean League, stated yesterday no for mal complaint had been made against Cobb by the Boston club, and unless such complaint was made no official action would bo taken. However, aa a result of Several Informal com plaints of verbal, fireworks between Cobb and spectators In various cities. President Johnson recently sent a letter warning the Detroit manage ment that CobVe tongue should be curbed or that young player would draw a punishment Word has been 'received here that T. P. Dalton, left fielder of the Win cheater (Va.) Independent team, has signed with the Chicago White Sox.' of the American League, and would Join that club before going home. Dal ton Is a big fellow, has been breaking batting records In Winchester, and haa also been fielding finely. He first attracted attention when he play ed for the University of Virginia in 1304. Tom Brown, the. old umpire, was coaching the team and predicted he would some day be a atar. He was recommended to Joe Canttllon, Wash ington's manager, but Cantlllon de cided that he did not need out-field talent at this time ad enough to try experiments. "Cy" Morgan, tho Red Sox pitcher, has discovered a freak bender which It is expected will. In time, supplant thn fainouH, apltball. Morgan's new bull is called the "follow ball' and from all reports it haa all other curves beaten to a frassle. Morgan has con trolled the ball so well that he now has two curves working from prac tltlly the same delivery, and while more bonders might fie discovered. the Boston pitcher will devoto hta time to perfecting what he has on hand. His first discovery iwas the "follow ball" which dropped. The ball Is held 11 ko a straight drop, which goes off the ends of the fingers, but in the delivery the pitcher, with a sldo-arm motion, snapa his hand around and the ball leavea the second finger aa in the manner of throwing an in-curve. The ball.twlrla around like a floater, but curries with conalderably more speed. When tho ball1 reachea the plate It takes a tremendous arop. Morgan's second follow ;ball discovery ts even more mystifying than the drop bait This hall ia of the ln-drop va riety and has a two-foot break at toe plate. The only tune Morgan usea the follow ball in a game whs on trolt's last vialt here, with tne banes full and Crawford and Cobb coming up Morgan faced a situation that would have eent moat iwinera w an aerial flight". But he struck out both men with, the new curve. Can he hit?" was asked of a field er. Is his control ouui query put about a pitcher to Lou is Hellbroner, the Cincinnati club a scout, to which he repuea: in drinking capacity or the cigarette con suming ability of the candidate nev er entered into the discussion of old Now, however. It is different. 'He hits about .300 when he's sober.' does not get a man a Job. Nor does the re port that Me a got nno tiiirui uu speed when he lets the cigarettes alone' Induce any offers of purchase. It's the man who can show freedom from occasional alcoholjo staggers and a bunch of fingers on eaoh hand that are not painted with nicotine of the merry little "stuaeni lamp- wnw first chance to become a part of the big show. In the several years that I have been scouting for the Cincin nati club I have brought into camp only one 'booxer. That fellow waa recommended to me as a sort of re formed member of the United Broth ers of Tipplers, and I took a chance on him. Welt it waa the old story. He couldn't keep up his tna. it is my policy and the policy of every man that is looking for talent to find out the habits ot every man who looks suspicious for a trial In high baseball society. If he can show a limited boose consuming appetite, and a preference for cigars and pipe rather than cigarettes, ha is examin ed for hia baseDaii anility. But ne fails to pass the boose and cigarette test no further attention Is paid to him. 1 Bush leaguers are gradually getting wise to this fact with the natural result that a better class of players la springing up among the minors. - ., -. ;..: -,;,.'; DEMOCRATIC CAMPAIGN FUND The Observer will print each da jr tha blank from below for the con venience of those who may desire to subscribe to the Democratic cam paign fund.!

There are but few of the Southern cities to see It ere It enters New York City for Its culminating triumph. Charlotte la one of those cities. The countess appears at the ' Academy of Music next Wednesday, matinee and night Andovcr aiur Harvard. ' World To-Day, Chicago. It I believed that by coming' Into closer relationship with Harvard Its position may be re-established in the world of -theological Instruction. For our part we are not convinced that this ia to be the cam. With Its large endowment and prestige, Andover bad a peculiar opportunity, and if tha right man had appeared might have developed an . entirely new type of theological school: namely, a school for religious leadership. As It Is now It can offer no advantage that Har vard divinity school does not offer and can at beat do little mora than duplicate the work of that splendid institution. Some day we shall have In America a theological school in which a small group of men shall work together, not for the purpose of training men for the ordinary, min istry,, but for training men for lead ership In the work of adjusting the Church to a changing order. Soma of our schools are already facing this problem with success. But the in struction demanded for such leader ship Is not that of general- university study, - It Is rather that of a dis tinct professional training. ; Will Stay For pains in back or chest King's!
