BY SWAT MILLIGAN. (The Peerless Hitter of the Poison Oaks.) Boston, O+. 10. ELL, I'm glad to tell you fans in New York that me and McGraw has at W last got things workin’ right, It took a long time for me to get my 8 into their heads, but the players is gettin’ round to my way of thinkin’ now and somethin’ of impor- tance is sure to happen before we leave this town, where they say a base hit Is “rippin” instead of @ “swell wal- lop. For two days I had my secrtt service men out scoutin’, and Tuesday night one of ‘em come in and tipped me off; to the information that I wanted, He had been trailin’ Catcher Carrigan of the Red Sox until he found out that he 4 death of eels, wiggle tails and earth worms, My old sleuth told me and Mc- Graw that Carrigan could sand for nothin’ that would squirm tn his hand. ‘That was all I wanted to know, and me and McGraw lald our plans ac: cordin’, I had to work #0 seret and quiet ike that we didn't Ket no chance to show anything until the eighth innin’, and, if you recailect. that Is thy innin’ in which the Giants tore down the Red Sox lead and stepped out in front. The play that saved the game for the Giants was when Carrigan got Q3 Herzog’s foul ball in his band and then dropped tt. That may have seemed Uke an accident, but it wasn't no such thing. Jt was a part of our plan. When Collins, the left-hander, was knocked out of the tox by Red Murray } and Hail was sent in to take his place, I disguised myself like a polkeman and slipped down to join McGraw. From behind the beneh my secret srvice men sipped a bundle that {s worth a lot of money.

We didn’t git to the wire quick enough | to find out that Merkle was goin’ to foul out to Carrigan, but when Herzog , came up I knowed right off that Hall was goin’ to make him lift a high foul | near the grand stand. Rememberin’ Carrigan’s bein’ afraid of eels, worms and things that wiggle, I give McGraw the signal, and he slipped Herzog the famous wiggle stick. This is so constructed that by pressing a little button on the side a secret preparation can be made to exude from the pores of the stick which covers the ball and makes it feel just like It wi full of wiggle tails. The movement fn slippin' Herzog the bat was #o furtive that none of the fans or the Boston players sven the shift, Right then I knowed we had ‘em. Just when Hall turned loose the ball that was to be fouled off Merzog pressed the button, Sure enough the ball went straight up in the alr and came down !n Carrigan's outstretched hand. You ought to have seen the look on his face when that ball began to wiggle in his hand. "Snakes!" yelled McGraw, which was part of the scheme, and Carrigan dropped that ball like he was scared to death. He was afraid to pick tt up for a whole minute. When he did git hold of 4t and thnow ft back to Hall, the pitcher felt such @ terrible squirmin’ in his hand that he threw an easy cne right over the middle of the plate. Just fm the nick of time Herzog had switohed to my famous rubber pinch stick and fradled that ball against the top of the left fleld fence and scored them two runs that put the Giants in the lead, If we had been playin’ on the Polo Grounds, like I had figured m ad- |vance, that waltop would have been a home run and the old game would have | | be n put on ice right then and there. | The hoys played a mighty swell game after mo and McGraw got ‘em started and they 1s deservin’ of everything nice that {= eald about them. | | 3 " | , Carrigcn Became Scared and Dropped the Ball. | i The one thing that crossed us was when Speaker hit that one in the tenth and tled up the game, As McGraw was usin’ all his players, I had to call in Harry Sparrow and Charile Flynn to help me out. We had arranged the ce | rubber curtain, so that it would drop down n front uf the bow fence in centre when the string pulled, The {dea was to drop it when a Giant hit the ball, #0 that tt would bounce away for a home run, Sparrow got hold of the [Wire and forgot who was at the bat. As a result he pulled it for Speaker in- stead of us and that ball jumped all over the outfield. That's twice now that I've been double-crossed on the rubber mat acheme | and I may have to give it up ‘cause J can't get nobody wise enough to work it, I wowld have used one of my secret service men, but they was out in the| Jecntre fleld bleachers lookin’ after another scheme that Incidentally saved the | game in the tenth innin'. When Lewis came up I wanted him to hit the ball) m the ground in front of the fence instead of puttin’ it over for @ home run, | My secret service at a sign from me planted @ lodestone in the edge of the rass right next to the fence. I give Matty the tip and slipped him a patent vader to put on the ball that would make the loadstone attract {t, Conse- | nly when Lewis hit the ball it started over the fence, but all of a sudden | the powder spled the lodestone tn the grass and the ball ducked down itke a| wild duck whirlin' into the decoys. ‘The ball was stopped at a two-bagger and that saved the game. Don't worry now, for everything is workin’ smooth and me and McGraw fe healthy. Efficiency Suits At Twenty. Dollars | Our efficiency suits are made possible by efficiency in making.
