Newlln Drug company, exclusive local agents A joke is going the rounds at Walla Walla at the expense of Jlmmle Men sor, who las: year nlaved a garden for the ' 'ns In the Tri-State. TO those who know Mensor the joke la indeed rich. Otto B. SchoK, a sport ing edl'or at Walla Walla .wrote a long letter to Mensor but mailed It to New York friends and had them mnil'lt direct to Mensor. The letter said: New York City, N. Y.. Feb. 15. '13. ' Mr. J. F. Mensor, Walla Walla. Wn. . -1 . . www). iu,tnin twi uul training In the south, I write you in rpgard to playing ball with mv club. No donht you have read of the New York plants, and would like to get a berth as outfielder. You have be" recommended to me by iMr. D. h. Lone, of the San Fran clwno Peals and "our brother with Pittsburg. Both these gentlemen rate you as one of the best vounc bush players on the (oaot. One who Is free from all dangerous habits, such as the deadly rum. he cigarette and the cigar, the hop and th cruel wo men. Th's class of young burners I am looking for. and in the year 1938 I expect to land a world's champion ship, and I hone for you to be one of the champs. I shall extvet your experience !n the bushes w"- ' near, lv finished sftpr one more year In the Trl-St8" league I Wnalla Walla, Wnhlrtin. I have been Informed us to your abll'tv and find von are capable of nranlne 100 yards In nine flat, bare- .footed on rmks. with a long over-j icoat on: also hit the sphere right and left handed and reduced all pitching I averages; can circle (be base In 13 1-4 seconds and make a book slide with either foot on any base; play any place on the team, and dclivor the con after the game to the poor fans around tbe cigar stores, who don't know any more about baseball than Jack Johnson does about the white slave laws. I ww you oo this New York team and :r you don't et killed before the finish of the 1913. season, or vou ar) not lira fled hv hn 20 nfll: luumia nn.l.r jthe sea, I'll give your uiaunsur Chief I Meyers' 1905 body strap or a picture I of Rube Maraunril for tun hi trnila ' Of course you understand the condi tions of the rade Iro n a Cli.su 3 league to a major. Be forewarned b) checking your trui.lt only hi rar ns Kansas City so if anything should happen you could meet your ward robe on the way back to the bushes. Of course I'll expect you to at least get a cup of coffee and a vtack of big league hot caker. Tbe reason of all this advice Is' that so many of the young, fast, hard-hitting busbers do not take good 'care of itheinselves and are continually spilling bull. They think they are big league timber before they are out of the old-fashioned three cornered diaper. , Now Mr. Mensor, 1 shall watch you this 1913 season and appoint a scout In your league to keep tab on you and your actions. Please do not disappoint me as I figure you to replace 8 nod grass In 1914. Your being a Jew you would be able to catch "three balls any Lime Instead of one. Wtkhing you a great year In base ball and success, I am, yours very truly, U. OTTO B. SCH0TT. (P. D. Q.) Secretury to Tooke A. Chance, Mgr. In answering please refer to File No. 23.
