The locals used three pitchers in order to give all a tryout, while the Hartford boys were forced to put another man in the box after the sixth inning. Winkler, a new addition to the local pitching staff, proved that the Pioneers know what they are doing when they after a pitcher. Out of nine men that faced him at bat, seven were retired on strikes. He also proved himself no weakling when it comes to handling the willow, by get- ting two good hits out of as many times at bat, one being for two bases. McKeon started the scoring for the locals after the Hartford team had scored one by getting a three base hit in the second inning and going home on J. Fitzpatrick’s single. The Larkspurs scored one in the first and one in the second inning, but were unable to get any more, while the locals continued to pile up their tal- lies by sending one man across in the none in 3 innings, off Winkler none in 3 innings, off Custer 4 in 5 innings, off Burckhardt, 3 in 3 innings; stolen bases, W.

His papa’s name was and the offspring was s Tristram, after the famous Mr. Shandy. (Deep our knee, we will spin for litry stuff.) This. male child grew to be a stalwart boy, and,all might have been well, had he not fell in with evil companions, who led him to indulge in the deadly hahit of whiff- ing the paper pipes. Poor Tristram’s growth was stunted, and when he reached an inch short of six feet he stopped growing. The poor little shrimp, with his cigarette-stained finge spired to become a baseball pitcher, and. he was given a chance to display his abil- ity in pushing the pellet by the kind manager of the Cleburne club in the North Texas league. It was soon dis- good—no endurance, no wind, no | speed, nothin' at all.” | At about this juncture Boston re- | membered Tris' existence und turned | him over to Little Rock as ound | rent man. Hampered as he was by | his terrible addiction, all Speaker | could do in the Southern league was | to bat .350. At the close of the sea- son Boston bought him back for $500. | Early last v after Speaker had | made a reputation as one of the great- | est outfielders and hardest hitters in | the American league, the Feds tried to cop him, but Boston saved him | by offering a contract for two years for $37,000, which established a new record for an active player. Last year | he was third among batting heroes | of the Am 1c, with an aver- age of . surpassed only by Cobb and Collins : | And now, little children, wienever | You are tempted to form the wicked habit of cigarette smoking, remem- | ber the sad story of Tristram Speaker, | the poor Texan, and thi of what great man he might have become if he had staid off the paper pipes.
