Humboldt, Ia., Aug. 25.—Neigh- bors and friends of Frank Gotch, com- prising nearly the whole of the mas- culine population of Humboldt Coun- ty, are preparing to turn out en masse tomorrow to give an enthusias- tic send-off to the wrestling champion upon his departure for Chicago. Gotch will be accompanied by half a dozen of his trairfers and helpers who will assist in the final work of prepa- ration for the championship match with Hackensmitlr on September 4.

Dan Brouthers, Player of Old School and One of Greatest Batsmen In Annals of Baseball, Sees Nothing New. Dan Brouthers, a player of the old school and one of the greatest bats- men ‘in the annals of baseball, being asked recently as to how many new plays had been discovered in the game In the last twenty years, made this reply: “I don’t know of any real new ones. They don’t do much that they didn’t do when I played ball. There is a little difference. Some moves are made with more frequency, and team work {s more .common among clubs. There 18 nothing new about the bunt. There’s a man coaching for the New York baseball club who, twenty years 2go, could bunt more skillfully than most of the players on the fleld to- day, and as skillfully as the experts, for all that I can see. I mean Arlie Latham. This squeeze play which they talk so much about I saw hap- pen on the ball fleld, although the batter used to chop at the ball, rath- er than bunt it. . “The delayed steal 1s not a modern invention. Old players used to do it, and they used to say that they were blamed idlots for taking such chances on the bases. They weren't so crit- ical then about picking plays and put- ting fancy names on them. If any- thing happened out of the ordinary— that 1s, the ordinary run of luck— they'd say after the game was over, ‘That was a streak of luck, and the club was fortunate to get away with a victory. That's what we used to get. None of your delayed steals and sacrifice killers and such things. “The sacrifice hit was not known then. That {8, exactly in the manner that it is made today, although when managers saw the trend of the times that baseball was getting more and more to be a game in which one run would be a great factor in winning, they trained their clubs to go after the sacrifice as much as any other play. Yet I have known times when ‘Wwe used to play out in-the lake cities when we sacrificed. Did it deliber ately, too. No picaywme luck about it. Simply jumped in and took a chance on getting out to get another fellow around. They're all old—every one of them—and it’s only the frequency of some of these so-called plays, against their scarcity in years gone by, which induces something that we aidn’t know. “Some folks today claim that there are better base runners now than years ago. I would like those people to produce them. Where {8 there one better than Ned Willlamson? How about Harry Stovey? What of Buck Ewing and Mike Kelley and Fogarty and about forty others that I could name if it were worth while? Better base stealers? Let me tell you some- thing—when people say anything like that, you tell them to stop reading those romances about baseball and go somewhere and borrow—for you can’t buy them—a few copies of the older editions of the baseball guides, and then come around and tell us what they found in them in regard to base runners.” Something New. An Irishman just from the sod was eating some old cheese, when he found, to his dismay, that it com- tained living inhabitants. “Be ja- bers,” said he, “does your cheese in this country have children?”s BLOCK GOOD ROADS ‘(Continued from first page). county or ‘the state. The Blwell bill |.provides that the state shall bear half of the expense, the county or coun- ties through which the proposed road shall pasg’a quarter and the property owners benefited the other quarter. Killed Good Roads Law of 1896. This _pr‘nciplg was the one upon which t%pr_éupreme court declared un- constitutional the good roads law of 1896 under the old constitution. In framings ‘the Elwell bill it was thought, that this and other pitfalls that stogd’in the way of the former measure had been avoided, but later investigations would seem to indi- cate differently, it is asserted by some. § If, however, the attorney general’s department rulés that the Elwell law is constitutional, which is at present considerably doubted, expenditures which the'state highway commission may make under it will be limited by the one-quarter of 1 mill levy on all taxable property of the state, author- ized in a constitutional amendment. May Restrict Tax Levy. The commission will be further limited by this law, it was said yes- terday, in: the amount of the levy which may be expended in each coun- ty, restricted to a maximum of 3 per cent a year from the fund raised-by the levy, and a minimum of half of 1 per cent.; A-provision of the Elwell bill, however, which permits the pay- ment of the expense incurred in con- structing the highways in ten annual installments may relieve the situation produced by this limitation. 1,000 Miles Planned. * “Almost 1,000 miies of new roads are now projected for the northern | part of the state by thie Northern | Minnesota Development league alone, while the:good roads movement in the state is not centered in that sec- tion. Though its plans are extended to cover a number of years, the com- mission faces the problem of distrib- uting its funds not only there but equally to ‘the benefit of other coun- ties. t Applications already have been made for the construction of a road, 450 miles long, from Duluth through Bemidji to St. Vincent, and from Deer River to Northome, while the league’s plans include other roads from Duluth to International Falls, | Duluth to the Twin City, and Koochi- ching to Bemidji, approximately 1,- 000 miles in all. ELECTRIC MULES FOR PANAMA Railroad to Be Built for Drawing Ships From Ocean to Ocean. The first shipment of steel has been made from New York for building a unique electric- railway along the Panama canal for 'drawing great ships from ocean to ocean. The enormous volume of shipping across the isthmus will be drawn on the ancient towpath system, so that it will be unnecessary for steamers to proceed under their own steam. In place of the mules, on this curious towpath, powerful electric locomo- tives will draw the largest ships smoothly and swiftly across the con- tinent. A steamer of, say 20,000 tons, which the canal will readily ac- commodate, is obviously a very heavy burden, and the electric locomoties will be geared to the tracks by a middle rail in the form of a rack. The canal commission has advertised for 2,000,000, pounds of steel ties, slots and _covers and 1,300,000 pounds of steel channels. This rack railway will be built by the commis- sion, and will be in working order in less than two years, in time for the opening of the canal. WE'VE GOT A FEW IN BEMIDJI “They’re Particular Friends of Papa, But Mamma Doesn’t Like ’Em. Out in Swarthmore, where every- body is unusually bright and clever, a little girl was asked by a visitor. who is spending the summer * at Strath Haven Inn if she knew any- thing about fairies, relates the Phila- delphia Times. “Oh, indeed I do,” promptly _replied the little eight- year-old. “They’re particular friends of papa, but mamma doesn’t like ’em, and every time-she’s angry with father she scolds him for as- sociating with them.” Ink Spots.
