The fan who believes that a base- ball manager's duty consists merely in Ziving orders is away off the track. That is only a small part of the ardu- ous tasks and one which causes the smallest amount of worry. ©On nearly every team there is a ball player with a ‘“temperament,” as it has in these enlightened days come to be called. In the olden days it was referred to plainly and simply as a “queer streak,” but whatever name it is known, such olayers are difficult to manage. _ John McGraw has two or three such individuals on his New York roster, notabie among them being Rube Mar- quard and Arthur Shafer. Charley Dooin has two in Earl Moore and Sherwood Magee. Johnny Evers has at least one in Heine Zimmerman. Hughey Jennings has his burden to bear in dealing with Tyrus Raymond Cobb. It usualiy happens that the perament” does not show itself until after the player has acquired more or less of a reputation following one or two superlatively good seasons on the diamond, for the very goad reason that an erratic outburst would not be tolerated for a moment from a medi- ocre performer. Evers is having the time of his life to keep Zimmerman within Whether Zim or Bvers is most to blame is an open question, but the fact remains that there Is friction between them and that it is not doing the Chicago team any good. McGraw had his troubles with Mar- quard before the season opened, but the Rube appears to have settled down now. This is well, for Shafet has taken his place as the cut-up kid, and McGraw is worried lest some morning he will awake to find that the coast lad has actually embarked for the Pacific slope. Do the fans know the outbreak: the hero largely T “temn- the reason for of thess players? Well, worship given players is ponsible. Some of - these fellows. possessing no prize-winning amount of gr matter, become rank egotists after the patrons of the sport have fawned upon them for a few months, and imagine that they are greater than the club which employs them. They try to prove it by disre- garding and disobeying orders, and then comes the showdown. PLAYGROUND LEAGUE. Lake Streets Defeat Greeneville—Six Straight Wins for Victors. The Lake street team defeoted the Greeneville team on Mohegan park on Wednesday afternoon by the score of 24 to 4. Moran pitched steady bal. throughout the game, allowing only three hits.

VOLUNTOWN-GLASGO DID NOT PLAY ALL STARS. Manager Hugn Takes Exception to Statment that All Stors Lost to Com- bination. \ Manager Hughes of the All Stars in a letter to the Sporting Editor protests the story in Wednesday's paper to the effect that the All Stars were defeated by the Voluntown-Glasgc team. Man- ager Hughes states that he was re- quested by an agent of the Voluntown- Glasgo team to bring a team to Voi- untown on Saturday, but that he re- plied that he would be unable to se- cure his All Star players for that date, as the Stars are not plying Saturday baseball at present. The agent of the two village combination then asked Mr. Hughes to bring any team he could se- cure in Norwich for that date, which at urgent request Mr. Hughes did. The latter asked that it be expressly under- stood that the team would not play un- der' the caption of All Stars. Mr. Hughes says: “He consented to this, but after the game I saw a poster in a local restau- rant advertising a game between Vol- untown and the All Stars for that day. I was also informed that considerable meney had been bet on the game, witll odds of 5 to 1 in favor of the Sitars, and all who bet money on the game with the supposition that they werc betting on the Stars were @eliberately fleeced. Again, in yesterday’s paper the Volun- town manager attempied to boost the stock of his team by an account of how it had defeated the All Stars. “lest any be deluded by this, it may be well to say that the Stars played Voluntown once with a much weaker team than they now have, and defeated them 6 to 1. Unless a suit- able explanation is forthcoming the Stars will never play Voluntown while the present manager is in office.” Clarke, the One Time Star. Fred Clarke shouid always be named among the greatest of ball players. The manager of the Pittsburg club,who has been,in harness for nearly 20 years, has never been anything but a star. After laying off for a year he came back into the line-up for a few games, and the surprising feature of his work was that he apparently had lost none of the sunning that made him famous for many seasons. Clarke, for some accountable reason, never at- tained the prominence that did Cobb and players of that type, and yvet when his long service and remarkable abil- ity are considered, he was every bit as great a player as any the game has ever produced. Not only has he been a wondgrful player, but one of the most successful managers, and is one of the few players who are not handi- capped in their playing by the burden which the managerial job brings to a player and which in so many instances turns good players into poor ones. FINANCIAL AND COMMERCIAL NEW HAVEN STILL HEAVY. Narrow and Volume Tradin@ Small. New York, July 23.—From itg irreg- ular drift of the previous session, to- day’s stock market became distinet- 1y reactionary, with more low Tecords in government issues, New Haven con- vertibles and some of the doubtful specialties, chiefly Petroleums. The movement wag cemparatively narrow and trading as a whole was much smaller in volume than in recent days. A depressing factor was the further decline in government twos which yielded to 96 1-4. Sales of these bonds, in part at least, were evidently for account of small interior institutions and rumor had it that some fairly large blocks of this issue had changed hands “over the counter” at a price well un- der the lowest stock exchange quota- tion. Another event which made for cau- tion was the unexpected demise abroad of Anthony N. Brady, for many years active in the affairs of such corpora- tions as the Brooklyn Rapid Transit company, Consolidated Gas company, United States Rubber company, Amear- ican Tobacco company and various other concerns whose securities are traded in on the local exchanges. The fear, apparently unfounded, that some of these holdings might be thrown upon the market served to restrain operations for the long account. Trading became extremely dull in the late hours save for a small move- ment in Amalgamated Copper, which failed, however, to impart any material strength elsewhere, the closing again inclining to heaviness, particularly in New Haven. For the third consecutive day T.on- don was again a buyer, to the extent of about 20,000 shares, making a total thus far this week of not less than 65,000 shares. Money was plentiful at Movement of that center, with more steadiness in discounts. Local money rates were easier for sixty and ninety davs, and offerings as_a whole were freer. The general bond market was low- er in sympathy with stocks. Panama 2’s shared with government 2's in es- tablishing a low record price.

Jack Coombs of the Athletics, Alex- ander of the Phillies, beth pitchers, who are at Echo Lake, Pa., resting up, report they are recovering and.will be back in the game shortly. New Haven is running mad in the Eastern association. Too bad. as Bill Clarkin wanted Hartford to play Wor- cester in a post season series of games for the champfonship of New England minor leagues. There are reports of Dissension among the Chicago Cubs. It {s said that Manager Evers does not ger along very well with either Zimmerman or Bresnahan and a deal involving thoss two is likely to result. at Washington When the president of one of the big Year greeting to -the thousands of employes | “Safety First” was the most import- ant policy of the railroad—the wuorid approved\ It is to be hoped that these two words, so easily said, but carrying such a deep meaning, will strongly | impress every automobile driver in the | country. “Safety First” is the slogan of the efficient automobile driver. It should imply to all motorists the ob- servance of the proper amount of caution that they owe to themselves as well as to the consideration due to the lives, limbs and property of oth- ers. Unless a man is mentally unbalanced and, therefore not fit to drive a car, he starts out with this principal firm: ly fixed in his mind and a full equip- ment of anti-skid chains in his car. There is absolutely no reason for anyone to take chances on -slippery pavements and muddy roads inasmuch as a sure unfailing grip on the road may always be had by equipping all tires with the anti-skid chains. A motorist owes a duty of caution both to himself and to others, for to a great extent in his own hands lies the safety of himself and others. Many imagine that by taking chances by depending upon rubber alone for suf- | ficient traction and steering steadi- mness while driving on wet pavements | and muddy roads is proof tht one is an expert driver, and often they do not realize that they are wrong until aft- er the first accident. Therefore, it is much better to use tire chains and arrive at your destination than to de- pend upon rubber alone and wake up in the hospital. In short there is nothing about the car more important than the tire chains, and the time is not far off when their use will be made compul- sory by law. The third annual Amerioan Roads | congress is to be held in Detroit, Mich., in the last week of September, begin- ning the 29th. Good roads matters of tenance, materials, machinery, finan- cing and various scientific considera- tions will be discussed. The remark- able series of models exhibited by the United States Office of Public Roads, showing street and road surface, cul- verts and bridges, etc., in graphicform | will be one of the features of the | congress. It is hoped that President | Wilson, several cabinet members and senators, Trepresentatives, and gover- nors will be present. Among those who will address the congress will be Col. E. A. Steavens, state highway commis- sioner of New Jersey who will describe | the proper treatment of worn-out or raveled macadam road surface. Henry G. Shirley, state highway engineer of Maryland, who will read a paper ‘Healing with systematizing and simpli- fying the purchase of materfals and equipment. State Highway Commis- sioner Wilson of West Virginia, who will tell what he knows about the la- bor question as It affects road con- struction. State Highway Commis- sioner Hurst of Wisconsin, whose text will be the stiructure of drains for highways and State Highwayv Engineer Keller of Alabama, who will tell how to care for unsurfaced roads. John A. Mecllhenny, President of the United States Civil Service commission will also deliver an address. If money talke—and the dollar sign is surely the hailmark of American Big Business—then the power of wagon has established itself securely in the | industry of this country. And the closely bound purse strings of the great Captains of Industry who draw direct tribute from all but the vegetarlans will surely be loosened to the tune of a few more millions of dollars in the near future—for the motor trucks they claim to despise. And the recorded experience of mo- tor trucks in the packing Industry— freely given in some caseg but mostly pried loose with the ald of journalistic crowbar and dynamite in others— furnishes absolute and complete cor- roorbation. Common sense, too, wiil justify all claims for the superiority of the motor in this class or service. even if economiical considerations are entirely ignored. “ “It is easy to see why our fore- fathers surmounted almost incon- ceivable obstacles In opening up the vast new country of the west in the early days,” said Eldon Rockledge, of Los Angeles, when he, with Willlam West and Catine Corella, was wel- comed in to New York as they com- pleted the trans-continental trip 1in R-C-H No. 2. “Even if there had not been the prospect of fertile land and gold to lead them on, the ploneers of our country would have been im- perelled to continue their journeys by the love of traveling over the country. “There 1s nothing to compare with the sensation of satisfying the wandererlust by cress-country travel- ing. We have made a trans-con- tinental trip from Los Angeles to New ! York because of the pleasure we can | get out of driving. The open air life, . the hundreds of miles of wonderful scenery, and the spirit of conquest one experfences in continually entering new country, are joys that only the motorist knows these days. Our fore- fathers must have known these same joys, to a lesser extent, of course, when they loaded their familles and househsld goods into a canvass-cover- ed prairie schooner, and struck out for | the land of the sumset. Of couree, they had the added incentive of a new and better home in a vastiy-more at- DOINGS IN THE AUTO WORLD The Motor Truck in the Packing Industry—American Roads Congress to be Held at Detroit—Good Roads Question tractive territory, but, nevertheless, I believe that the joy of traveling had t deal to do with their nMgra- " Dustless, flyless, germless city streets! The passing of the horse and the substitution of the automecbile is the reason. Stewart McDonald, vice president of the Moon Motor Car company, says the recent action of the street depart- ments of Chicago, New York and Kansas City, in selling thelr street sprinklers and substituting washing apparatus will be followed very shert- ly by similar action in other cities, “Street department officials have found that the same payroll will clean and wash the streets as has been used for sprinkling them. The washing each night removes the dust and the further elimination daily of the horse | for city use does away with filth which now draws flies and produces germs. “The time is not far distant when the horse will be entirely out. Then the general use of asphalt and weod blocks for ail city streets will be found more practicable and the ques- tion of cleaning the streets will be greatly simplified. With cleaner streets the sanitary condition of cities and the health of the people will be \’astly improved “Congress has the power to extend National aid to good roads under the inter-state commerce clause of the constitution, and the authority to build military highways and to estuhluh post roads. Jefferson 30, Madison thought so, and so d Cal- houn. There is no question about the power of congress in the premises.” So asserted Chairman Henry of the Ruleg committee of the House of Rep- resentatives recently when he conclud- ed the debate which preceded action that creatd a committee on Public roads—the first time in the existence of congress that the roads question received a recognition which places it among the big subjects now demand- ing positive national legislative at- tention. It will be remembered that the March Federal “Aid Roads convention in Washington called by the American Automobile association, through Iits | resolutions committee asked congress to create a committee to which all | roads matters would be referred. Con- gressman Slemp of Virginia wa the author of a speech wherein the con- vention was urged to ask congress for the committee that has just been named. Twenty-one members have been se- lected to constitute this committee, with , Representative Shackleford of Missourl as chairman. Of the twenty-ome, fifteen are new members of the house. The remsining six have given kighways matters some considerable thought, Chairman Shackleford undoubtedly leading in his activities. Byrnes of Souch Caroltna, Slemp of Virginia, and Prouty of lowa are well-known advocates @f Federal participation, while Saunders, another Virginian, and Whitacre of Ohlo, have evidenced interest in the subject. New York has two mem- bers on the committee—Ten Eyck and Dunn; Pennsylvania is similarly fav- ored—Dershem and Shreve. Political- ly there are 14 democrats, 6 republi- cans, and 1 progressive, the last being the Michigan representative. That the good roads subject “has arrived in congress,” there can be no doubt. It was only a year age that one of the senators from Oregon—Jonathan P, Bourne—told his colleagues that the “good roads ques- tlon was of far greater importance than the pending tariff and currency questions combined.” The Joint com- mtttee on Federal Aid, of which Mr. Bourne is the chairman until it com- pletes its report, has accumulated a vast amount of valuable information which is now obtainable in printed form upon application at Room 130 Senate office building, Washington, Unsightly Face Spots Are cured by Dr. Hobson's Eczems Ointment, which heals all skin erup- tions.
