[ SPORT'S ST. PAUL NEGRO WANTS $12,000 FOR BLOW FROM CANTILLON Napoleon Johnson, the St. Paul negro who was hit over the head with a baseball bat by Joseph Can- tillon, manager of the Minneapolis team, while rooting from a box at the Minneapolis-St. Paul game at Lexington park, June 1, has entered suit against Cantillon and George Lennon, president of the St. Paul Baseball & Amusement company for $12,000. John Kirby, St. Paul, is acting as Johnson’s attorney. Johnson, who is a vender of cray- fish was seated in a box along the third base line when the fracas took place. Angered at certain re- marks of the negro, “Hub” Dawson, catcher of the Minneapolis team, who was coaching, jumped into the box and engaged in fisticuffs with him. At this juncture Manager Cantillon ran to the scene, bat in hand, and hit Johnson over the head. Cantillon and Dawson were arrested and taken to St. Paul, where they were later released. JI0W COLLINS GOT HIS START Played With Athletics Under Assumed Namo of 8ullivan to Retaln Stand- Ing at Columbla. Have you ever heard how Eddle Col lins, star baseman of the Athletics, ‘made his debut in baseball as a mem- ber of ¢he Mackmen? This is the story from the sensational sacker imself: “I was in my senior year at Colum. dla when & scout found me up at Rup Eddle Collins. land, Vt, playing shortstop for that team In the Northern league. The scout asked me how I would like ta Join Connle, but 1 told him I did not ‘want to lose playing for Columbia the senior year. He sald that would be fixed up all right and I could travel under an assumed name. “So I went down to Philadelphia and out to the clubhouse, which was on the old grounds at Columbia ave nue. Connle’s office had two rooms, and he was in the Inside office. Tim Murnane, the baseball writer, was in the inner office when I showed up. “Connie could look out and spot anybody coming in. Tim and several of the local reporters were there, too. I remember Connie saw me and he did not want Tim to get wise, 80 he got up out of his chair, ran to the door and pushed me into the outer office. “As he bumped me out, Connle stuck out his hand and said, ‘How do you do, Mr. SBulllvan! Come right along with me.' ‘He took me down behind the grand stand and I prac ticed there for three days. “The western trip opened at Chl- cago and I played under the name of Sullivan. “I made the whole trlp and went back to college, got my degree and then came back to the Athletics after commencement. I played under my own name then, of course, but it was funny In Chicago. One writer came out with a note and sald: ‘The young fellow who now is playing under the name of Collins has been in the league before, and his right name is Sulll- van.” Cub Discards Doing Well.

A plan to have the Cincinnati Na- tional and Boston American baseball teams do thelr spring training togeth- ed permanently in some southern city and share the expense, has been agreed upon by the owners, according to announcement made. It is proposed to establish a training camp with a clubhouse to be used jointly by the teams and with two baseball flelds near by. Instead of depending on ho- tels, the players will have their quar- ters and eat at the clubhouse, under the direction of the trainers.

Larry Lajole belleves that Rube Waddell, the eccentric diamond acter, still has the ability to travel in fast company. Nap says that the fact that the Rube is with Joe Cantillon this season will make him a big winner. According to Lajole, there is only one man in this widg world who can han- dle Waddell right, and that man is the | present manager of the Minneapolis American Assoclation club. “Cantillon will let Waddell have a free rein,” says Lajole. “He won't fssue any orders, but he will put it up to Rube entirely. I expect that the Rube will pull off a select serles of his copyrighted stunts again this year, but I wouldn't be surprised if ha pitched fully fifty games for Cantillon. | I know both of them well, and, belleve me, they make a good combination. “Waddell {s far from the has-beer “Rube” Waddell. stage.

Counting thé once peerless backstop In a huge four and four man trade, Managers Chance of National league’s pennant winning cubs, and Tenney of Boston Saturday swung a deal that stirred fan populace from top to bottom. In the transaction completed after a debate lasting three hours, Chance gave Kling, Outfielder Kaiser, and Pitchers Orlie Weaver and Linton Griffin for Catcher “Peaches” Gra- ham, Pitcher Cliff Curtis, right- hander, and Out fielders Bill Collins and Wilbur Goode. Immediately after the trade the former Cubs donned Boston’s blue road togs and the ex-rustlers dolled up in home uniforms of white. HENRY HOPES TO GET TIGERS Catcher of . Washington Americans WIIl Endeavor to Make Good 8howing Against Detroit. “The under dog often rises up in his might and smites the one who has been lording it over his fellow men,” said John Henry, the Washington backstop, “and who knows but that we will succeed against the Detroit team where the other teams of the league have failed? That is, win a majority of the games of the series with the Tigers. Of course, 1 regret the accidents to Street and Ainsmith, becausé I realize that both are bet- Catcher Henry. ter catchers than I am, and that we stand a better chance :to win with either of them behind the bat.

The recent release of Pitcher Sam Leever by Plttsburg marks the pass- ing of the last remnant of the aid Pittsburg team as it was made up be- fore the consolidation of the Pirates and Louisville, when the National league circuit was reduced from 12 to 8 clubs. Until the season of 1907 brought a deal with Boston, Leever had one old comrade of the late 90's in Clarence Beaumont, who was final- ly let out of fast company by Chicago. Leever's career has been a remark- able one, and shows the old Pirate to have been one of the greatest pitchers For 12 full seasons and part of another pen- nant race he had been a member of the Pittsburg team and until the flight of time cut him down to emergency roles, a few years ago, he always ranked as one of the most successful slabmen in the majors. Indeed, there Is one feature to his record that put bim in a class of his own, for he was champion pitcher of the Natlonal league no less than than three times— 1901, 1903 and 1905—while his name also appeared at the head of the list In two other years, though he did not participate in a sufficlent number of games to earn the title of leader. Leever, who is now thirty-eight years of age, was secured by the Pitts- burg club of the Atlantic league, W. H. Watkins belng then manager of the pirates. Sam was’troubled with a sore arm and pitched only one game that season, but the following year he was back with bells on, and from that time on ranked as one of the greatest fingers in the business. Since joining the Pittsburg team Leever pitched a grand total of 290 games, and while this is not as much work as some other veteran heavers have done, the records of few rivals are to be compared with that of Lee- ver in the all-important matter of percentage of victories. Of those 290 games pitched, Leever won mno less that 193 contests, against only 97 lost, for the remarkable percentage of .668. Few Modern Hitting Pitchers. Clark Grifith of the Reds regrets there are so few pitchers in the modern game wWho can hit like those of 20 years ago.

ARRIE NATION HAD WILD LIFE Was “Tom de""vGirl and Became Reformer When She Married - Drunkard, Mré. Carrie Nation, who died June 9 at Leavenworth; Kansas, was bofn in Boyle county, Kentucky, sixty-eight years ago. Her father, George Moore, who came from =& wealthy and well connected Ken- tucky family, was born near Lex- ington, Kentucky. He was a farmer and live stock trader and was con- sidered a man of strong character and rather daring in his enterprises. He was married twice, his second wife, the mother of Carrie, being a Miss Campbell of Boylston county. When Carrie was nine years old, her parents removed to a farm near Versailles, in Woodford county, Ky. Carrie Moore received "her ed- ucation at the old schoolhouse near the Moore farm when in the fifties a Yankee schoolmaster, named Han- na, instructed the children of the district. Carrie was strong willed and self assertive and even in her early school days- made herself not only the leader, but the dictator of the other children. She was never a zealous student, but was naturally bright and quick wited and usual- ly knew her lessons. In those days Carrie was large for her age, had yelow hair and a fair complexion. She was inclined to be tomboy and was afraid of nothing. She domin- ated the school and her martial spirit even conquered the boys. Playing soldier was one of her favorite pastimes and she liked nothing better than to lead explor- ing expeditions of other children in- to the woods and into caves in that vicinity. Her mother was deeply religious and brooded over ‘religious matters until her mind became unbalanced and she died in an asylum for the insane. Carrie Moore was a regu- lar attendant at the church Sunday school in the town of Midway near her home. She manifested great interest and enthusiasm in the study of the Bible, and was always at the head of her class. Through all her life she prided herself on being a God-fear- ing moral woman and imbued mili- tant spirit of Christian reformer. She always was fond of quoting the scriptures and , later in her life, when she took to the war path against saloons, she never failed to intersperse her harangues ° with plentiful references to the Bible. From her mother she had inherit- ed a high-strung - and extremely nervous disposition, but her phy- sical constitution was excellent and enabled her quickly to recover from the effects of her most exciting raids. Carrie, from her earliest youth, was fond of notoriety and this characteristic, together with the inherited mental instability and her leaning toward zealotism explain in a large measure her later career. ‘When Carrie was fourteen years old, her father, who had lost the greater’ part of his fortune by speculation, moved with his family to Missourl. But little is known of her life during the first years in that state, but she married when quite young. Her first husband was a drunkard who often maltreated her. Not long after his death she married David Nation, a rising young lawyer. In the early ‘80’s Mr. Nation was prosecuting attorney at Muncie, Ind., and under Presi- dent Garfield he was appointed in- spector of revenue on the Brazos river, Texas. He moved to Texas and held his office until President Cleveland removed him and filled the position with a Democrat. Then Mr. Nation went to Rich- mond, Tex., where he started a Re- publican newspaper. It did not pay and Mr. Nation sold out. Next he started a hotel in the same town. He and his wife conducted the hotel and made considerable money. Mrs, Nation made it a point to look after the spiritual as well as after the physical welfare of the guests and insisted that they should go to church on Sunday. She did not hesitate in dragging unwilling guests to church by main strength and after she had subdued several bullies and obstreperous cow- boys by her fearlessness and cour- age, she became’ greatly feared. After her husband had been run out of town after having been mixed up in fractional political fight, Mrs. Nation conducted the hotel alone until her daughter married. Then she turned over the place to her son-in-law and joined her husband in Medicine Lodge, Kansas, It was while she lived in Medicine Lodge, that the inspiration came to her to start on a campaign of viol- ence against saloons and “joints.” For nearly ten years she continued this warfare, which made her so notorious, that her husband obtain- ed a divorce. She also visited England and there, as well as in several places in this country, she was placed in ‘jail on several oc- casions. Il health forced her a few years ago to retire from the war- path and she spent the rest of her days at Eureka Springs, Ark. Not Catching. One of the big league pitchers was disgusted one day at his team’s wretched outfielding. Batter after bat- ter sent up high fiies, and these easy balls were muffed alternately by left and center.
