Home Run King Likes Quiet Life in Maryland—Heavy Hitter Has Coin. “Home Run” Baker won't leave his farm. He prefers the simple life to base hits and the plaudits of the crowd. Though possibly the only ball play- er of this or any other generation to achieve such a frame of mind, Baker is thoroughly satisfied with his bank account as it now stands. In a few short seasons on the diamond he earn- ed—or. otherwise acquired—money enough to afford him a comfortable living all the rest of his life. And, feeling that his entire future is well previded for, he does not relish the idea of leaving home for extended periods for no other purpose than to add to his po ions. Baker Once Was Poor. When Baker broke into the Ameri- can league years ago he carried all his worldly wealth on his back, and he wasn't especially well dressed even for a busher. The home he had left behind him was just the ordinary of the poor East Coast yland farmer, mortgaged to the t shingle. Now he has one of the places in his township, set in the middle of a nine-acre yard, with a 200-acre farm just across the road. He owns every nail, eve st stone on the place, goe aving 'round the country i s own motor and has a comfortable balance in the bank. His farm is in itself a well paying proposition and has returned a better profit this year than any previous year, probably because Baker, who never has been anything but a farmer at heart, personally directed the sowing, cultivation and harvesting of his crops. In addition to which, Baker seems to have derived considerable revenue from his adventures among the Up- land leaguers and from other baseball sources. Swatter Has Bank Roll. Playing three or four times a week, Baker is said to have averaged in the neighborhood of $1,200 a month for the five months of the past season. For the $6,000 so gathered he played only three or four times a week, and in the gathering never had to jotirney so far that he could not be home by the cool of the evening, said to be by far the most salubrious hour of the day in that section of the country. All this Baker explained to Captain Huston and Bill Donovan when he had luncheon with them at Wilmington one day last week. He named the figures involved in the offer made by the Feds some time ago, and they were not in excess of what the Yankee mogul is prepared to lavish on Baker if the homerun person could be talked into a bit of enthusiasm over the na- tional pastime as it is perpetuated by the American league. Considerable Rebuttal. But when the Yanks tried to pin him down to what the captain consid- ered a reasonable contract, Baker had mis_farm—in the cool of the evening —his motor car and his three-or-four- times-a-week baseball at from $300 to $400 a time to use in rebuttal of the captain’s best arguments. PINPLES O FAGE FOR FVE YEARS ltched and Burned. Obliged to Scratch., Could Not Sleep. Face Disfigured. - Used Cuticura for Six Weeks. Face Now Clear. ST 515 Division St., Fall River, Mass.—“I was troubled with pimples on the face for five years caused by working where we used paste which poisoned me. My face broke out with pimples and they itched and burned so that I was obliged to scratch. The irritation was so great that I could not sleep at night [y and my face was disfigured. ‘, “I tried all kinds of olntment without any re- gult but was recommended by a friend to try Cuticura Soap and Ointment.

Franchise Will be Transferred to New England—Na- tional League Will Meet Today. New York, Dec. 13.—Major and minor league baseball clubs were well represented at three or four of the uptown hotels today. Plans and rumors of deals for next year's playing sea- son were heard on all sides, but only two definite statements were made. One was that Charley Herzog will re- main as manager of the Cincinnati Reds for at least another year. The other was to the effect that President Joseph J. Lannon and Charles H. Eb- bets had arranged for a series of three games to be played in Brooklyn be- tween the Boston world’s champions and the Superbas at Ebbets field on April 6, 7 and 7. President Edward G. Barrow called the meeting of the International league to order late this afternoon and after a three hour session he announced that the meeting had adjourned to meet here again on January 17. Every club in the league was represented and the session was .for the greater part de- voted to arranging for next year's cir- cuit. Alvin Smith and Jack Dunn of the Richmond, Va., club, denied having any intention of shifting their fran- chise. They will stick to Richmond, they said, no matter what other clubs might do. The Harrisburg club’s location on the 1916 circuit was the principal mat- ter discussed at the meeting and three places—Hartford, Springfield and Worcester——were mentioned. Presi dent Barrow stated that the Inter tional league had paid the National association for the reservation of Hartford and Springfield. He said his league would be willing to give up its claim on these two cities provided that his league would secure a free ficld for the Harrisburg club to be settled at Worcester. Messrs. T. H. Mur- nane, Boston: John J. Farrell, Auburn N. Y., and Barrow, who were appoint ed last month at San Francisco S a committee for the revision of p! ing territory in New England, reported to the meeting today and final action on their report will be taken when the league meets next month. Mean- while the franchise of the Harrisburg club is entrusted to the care of Pres- ident Barrow and he bpelieves he will secure a desirable place in New En: land to which it will be transferred. The questions of salary and playe: limits were discu: s well as eco- nomic suggestions. Just after the ses- sion was concluded President Barrow said: “The International league has weathered every storm safely and to- day it is in a sound condition, sound- er, in fact, than it might be expected after such a bad baseball year.” The National league meeting will be held here tomorrow and cluo cwners and managers from Chicago, Pitts- burgh, Cincinnati, St. Louis, Boston and Brooklyn were on hand early to- day. None of the Philadelphia or New York club officials had put in an ap- pearance at the meeeting place up to a late hour tonight. Captain Huston of ‘the New York club and President Lannin of Boston, will leave here early tomorrow to at- tend the annual meeting of the Amer- lean league at Chicago on Wednes- day. Harvard Athletic Statistics. Cambridge, Mass., Dec. 13.—Harvard athletic statistics isued today show that 1,623 students have engaged in major and minor sports so far this year, the largest number in the his- tory’ of the university. The increase 299 over last year. Football proved the most popular, with 365 names en- rolled, while 247 athletes went out for track games and 252 played tennis. Emeralds Play at Taftville. Manager Roy of the Taftville team has secured the Willimantic Emeralds for this evening’s game in Parish hall, Taftville. The Windham five has a strong aggregation and as they have already a victory over the Taftville boys they expect to duplicate. Pat Moran, pilot of the National lea e champions, will meet President Baker at the National league meeting in New York next week, and it is prob- able that the final touches will at that time be put to Pat's 1916 contract. Frank Laporte, former second base- man of the St. Louis Browns and New- ark Feds, will be with the Brooklyn Tip Tops this season. He was part of the deal by which Tom Seaton went to Newark last fall in the trade for Cy Falkenberg, but delivery of the infield- er was delayed until after the season. MARKET WAS LISTLESS.

New York, Dec. 13 the sinking of the Ancona fur the most likely reason for today's A combina- less and heavy market. tion of foreign and domestic selling, |G the latter largely from professional | (¢ sources, resulted mainly ‘downward. In its efforts to depress prices the trading element again concentrated its attacks upon United States Steel and in variable changes, such other leaders as the Pa roup of rails, also Reading and Baltimore and Ohio. Declines in these issues extended from one to two poin: New York Central was the only noteworthy exception to the lower levels reached by rails. Among _ high-priced American Tobacco was the weak fea- ture, sustaining an extreme 10ss of 9 points at 200, with sympathetic de- clines in kindred issues. People's Gas of Chicago dropped 5 3-4 to 112 and the more prominent war shares were 2 to 5 points lower. on one sale, dropped 16 points to 4 and the preferred lost 5 at 150.

Cables announcing the intention of the British chancellor of the ex- chequer to purchase American securi- ties, paying for them in five-vear 5 per cent. treasury bonds, confirmed recent reports of a general “mobili tion” of such securities now held Great Britain. The effect of this manoeuvre seems to have been partly discounted in the recent recurrence of foreign liquidation. Anglo-French bonds repeated last week’s low price of 94 3-4 for future delivery, while cash trades were ef- fected at 98 and “regular way” 96 1-4. The general bond list was under con- stant pressure.

The proposed federal tax on auto- mobiles to be levied at the factory on basis of horse power in the machine has brought to the front the question of the location of automobile manu- factories as respects the various states. The impression has gone forth that the manufacture was centered in a very few states and that in the consideration of the tax congressmen from states not interested mobile manufacture would cheerfully wigh the burden on the “other fel- low.” Following are the latest statistics on the distribution of motor vehicle factories. There are 448 companies and these are scattered through thir- ty-four states. Michigan leads in_the number of factories, with New York second. There are seven manufactor- ies in this state. Generally speaking there are not many factories in the south and west. The table: California AT Colorado Connecticut Delaware Georgia Tilinois Indiana Towa. Kansas Louisiana Maine . Maryland ...

Skidding generally takes place on a surface on which traction is difficult, such as a wet pavement. Usually the rear end of the care swings in & semi-circle, while the front end re- mains practically stationary and acts as a pivot. The speed of the car most often determines the violence of the skid, it being not unusual for a fast moving car to swing completely around, sometimes making two or more complete revolutions. If the car maintains its equilibrium, the result, is nothing more than fright and strai to the parts, but if it loses its bal- ance then it will turn turtle, and, in the major of cases, kill or seriously injure the occupants’ and maybe by- standers. While wet surfaces induce skidding, the fault can generally be traced to the driver. If he suddenly throws in the clutch while the power is applied, or if he applies the brakes sudden and tightly, or turns a corner too sharply then the car is more than likely to skid, with results as afore- mentioned. For the effect of the clutch sud- denly thrown in or out, look to the railroad engine. If the engineer ap- plies at once all the power under his control on slippery rails the wheels spin without gaining traction. The effect is practically the same on the automobile, except that there are no rails to keep the car steady. When the brakes are applied sud- denly, the effect is the reverse of the foregoing. The wheels cannot se- cure a purchase on the slippery road, | and the momentum of the car throw it out of balance and swings the rear end around. The effect of turning corners too sharply different from the other two cases. In turning a corner the outside wheels must turn faster ‘than the wheels nearest the inner curb, and, consequently, traction is reduced on the inner wheels, the result being that the car will continue to’ travel in a straight line In this case all four wheels skid. Among other causes for skidding are an unequal division of the load weight in the car body, uneven grip- ping of the brakes, and an unequal distribution of power. Measures to correct the threatened shortage of racing cars for the 1916 automobile racing season are being taken. The withdrawal of the manu facturers and the impossibility of in- teresting them in racing has developed a situation which is going to be met by the building of private racing cars by men who know how to do the work possibly better than the en- gineers of any of the well-known fac- tories. The United States government is fining ferry companies about New York City $500 for every time drivers of trucks or cars start their engines before the boats are fast to the docks. The ferry companies under the law can require that all gasoline be taken out of the tanks before the cars or trucks are taken aboard and they threaten to enforce this provision if drivers persist in running their en- gines on the boats. Highway Commissioner Charles J. Bennett has made final arrangements to begin work on the establishment of a color route code for the designa- tion of the main-traveled highways in the state. This week employees of the department will commence the work of painting the signs and the estab- lishment of danger signals. The col- ors will be blue, red and vellow. The work will be done under the general supervision of George E. Hamlin of the fighway department. The signs will be painted on telegraph poles and other places and danger signals will be fastened to posts, about 2,000 in all. These signals will be placed at railroad crossings and at cross-roads where there is danger of accident. The officials of the department will not es- tablish any signs in cities as the de- partment's jurisdiction is limited to towns. The system adopted is known as the tri-color—red designating east and west routes, blue, noth and south and vellow, diagonal or secondary routes. “Have a heart in caring for your storage battery.” The constant spin- ning of a stiff motor on a cold morn- ing is not the healthiest kind of ex- ercise for any battery. Yet many motorists thoughtlessly allow their batteries to run down in this manner with the result that not infrequent use of the hand cank becomes neces- sary. The observance of ‘the Xollowing simple instructions, provided by an expert, will prevent cold weather starting and lighting troubles and en- able the motorist to get the most out of his battery and prolong ite life. “One of the surest methods of pre- venting storage battery abusein cold ‘weather,” says the expert, “is to adopt some convenient means of priming the engine. Most cars today are equipped with devices for choking the carbure- ter to obtain a richer mixture for easier starting. Another excellent agent for priming is acetylene, which when fed into the intake manifold murnishes a ready made fuel while the carbureter is waking up. “While these precautions will pre- in auto- | vent needless batlery abuse in cold weather, be sure to see that the stor- age battery is always charged. There is no danger of a fully charged bat- tery freezing. Test the specific grav- ity at least once every two weeks by means of a hydrometer. The read- ing should be between 1,250 and 1,300 all the time. When the specific grav- ity is low run the motor at generating speed for two or three hours or have a battery charged at a competent bat- tery service station. “When the storage battery is not in actual use it m2uires just as thought- ful care as whén it is performing ite functions on the car, as a battery standing idle is constantly discharg- ing itself. “Thercfore when laying the car up for the winter arrange to give the storage battery at least once a month attention yowrself or leave it in the hands of a competent battery service station. “In order to prevent freezing the storage battery should be kept in a fully charged condition. When re- moved from the car it should be given a refreshening charge at once and every month thereafter, also a thorough charge after an idle period before it is returned to service. “To determine the condition of the storage battery It is necessary to take a hydrometer reading at least once a month. 17 the specific gravity read- ing is 1.250 or 1.300 the DBattery is fully charged and will not freeze. If the reading is 1.120 the battery is completely discharged and will freeze at 20 degrees above zero. If the read- ing is 1.160 it more than half dis- charged and will freeze at zero. If the reading is 1210 it is half dis- charged and will freeze at 20 degrees below zero. If the reading is 1.260 it is one-quarter discharged and will freeze at 60 degrees below zero. “When taking hydrometer readings make sure that the solution (electro- Ivte) is up to the proper level, that is, covering the plates. If not add distilleq water and run the motor for at least two hou then tzke another hydrometer reading. “The battery must be kept in a dry place, where the temperature is known not to go below 20 degrees above zero, yet away from any exces- s heat. Do not store the battery where re is any likelihooq of tools or anything else being laid across the top. “Battery service stations will store vour battery through the winter wlonths, give it a freshening charge every thirty days, take hydrometer readings, etc., for a nominal monthly fee. “The observance of the above sug- gestions will prevent any loss of ef- ficiency and enable you to get the most out of your starting and light- ing system every month in the year.” When a machine has been used sev- eral years the tie rod between the wheels will become loose from wear, This play is generally in the threaded parts and operation may be dangerous. A simple repair can be made by drill- ing through the yoke and rod and in- serting a taper pin. This is not perm- anent, however, as the parts are sub- ject to great strain and the pin will soon wear. If the parts were brazed or welded together the aligning ad- justment would be lost: Remove the rod from the yvoke and heat it to a high temperature. A mandrel a trifle larger diameter than the hole should be driven inside. This will mater ally expand the metal. Should the ouside diameter be too great, the rod can be placed in a lathe and the threads recut PREFERS PROFESSIONALISM TO HYPOCRISY President Perkins of Trinity College Comments on Athletic Situation. The question of George Brickle: player who h: sional baseball, the eligibility of the Trinity football been playing profes- has been the subject of great comment in college circles jduring the past season. President i Henry Augustus Perkins '96, president of Trinity college, has given the fol- ing interview regarding Trinity’s tion and the elegibility situation in general: “nquestionably the ideal situation in athletics would pe to have every man play his game for the love of it, and never for pecuniary gain. But, with human_nature as it is, we have to face the facts in dealing with ath- letic conditions as they exist today in our American colleges. “In my opinion it is better to have no eligibility rule whatever, than to have a rule which is likely to be evaded and to generate a spirit of hypocrisy. The present eligibility rule at Yale seems to me too harsh when it is car- ried out to its logical extreme. In the first place it bars a man from earning an honest and honorable means of live- lihood, and secondly, because it does place him in a position where he some- times has to play the hypocrite. With the present ruling in force at Yale, the committee is, of course, justified in declaring the five play ineligible. But I hope to see the time come when the colleges can agree on a modifica- tion of the eligibility rule so that a man who is enrolled as a bona fide student can ssecure part of his neces- sary financial means by playing sum- mer baseball of’ the unobjectionable type. And by this I mean that he be entitled to play on teams that are not members of any of the major or minor leagues. For it is these last mention- ed leagues which really place the stamp of professionalism on the career and conduct of a man. If we are un- able to frame a rule that cannot be evaded we ought to make a concession allowing college men to play on the smaller of these less professional teams. “As Professor Foster points out in the Atlantic Monthly, surely a college baseball team does not reeeive any more of the professional spirit which we all object to from one player who has earned his living during the sum- mer by his baseball, than it receives from the coach who has very likely been a league player of long standing. It is idle to object to a slight amount of professionalism among the players when we find it embodied in full in the person of the coach. “Once we adopt a stand against pro- fessionalism in its slightest interpre. tation we find that we have to bar a W majority of the teams on our college schedules. Thus we gee how rapidly the contagion of one team can spread its eontaminating influence, if we choose to call it such. “The case of Brickley at Trinity has Arawn forth a great deal of comment this year. Our position at Trigity is just this: The faculty as a whole has no control over athletics, beyond cer- tifying that a player is a bona fide student of the coll and off proba- tion. Our athletic Interests are in the hands of an athletic advisory commit- tee composed of several gradmates, two faculty members and the managers of the teams. Trinity has always felt BELL-ANS' | Absolutely Removes There Are 448 Automobile Factories Scattered About the Indigestion. Onepackage Country—Hints to Driver When Car Slddn—Hi'hmy} proves it. that a man should be able to earn money by playing summer baseball, provided it did not consist of the ex- tremely professional kind. But for the future we hope to have some rule whereby the objectionable type of pro- fessional baseball will bar a man from participating in coliege athletics. But the main idea now is to effect a modi- fication of the type of stringent rule that Yple at present has. I believe we can stfike a moderate ruling regardinz the eligibility of our college athletes. “I also think that the man who has played on a league team ought not to represent his colege because he is gen- erally superior to his felldw players on account of his professional train- ing. “An abuse which seems to me more culpable that the minor offenses which we have no wcome to term profession- alism is the offering on the part of certain oollezes of _ scholarships to prominent school athletes. Anad so I say that when we strive toward a set- tlement of the iligibility situation, we have to realize that there are a goed many things more blgmeworthy than the actual stigma. of minor professien- alism. Above all, we must face bu- man nature as it is, and adopt a mod- erate ruling that will not force a man to bring the taint of hypocrisy upon himself and upon his college.” i HORSE NOTES. 25c at all druggists.
