It Is base to steal, but not to steal a base. From the market price. It ia evident that champion pitchers are not made of common clay. Capturing fouls Is the colored club's strongest hold. fellow, aa well aa batting atreaka, result In runs. The more a player fans the air the hotter it grows for htm. A long drive will not always take a player to the end of a short journey. A "slob" on the "slab" at the ball grounds may be father to the wish that the slab was on the slob in Greenwood. An error is often a practical and costly illustration of Indulging in a drop too much. The howls from the bleachers will explain how It la that a player can mtus a ball and catch It at the aame time. The man behind the bat must be hand and glove with all com ers. Some umpires make the mistake of talking through their hata in stead of their masks. Even the ball player does not alwaya make a hit when he goes out on strlkea. Without the advantage of a legal training or a political pull, the um pire aenda more men to the bench than the entire strength of the Bar Association can put there. I While your ' wife may not be strikingly familiar with the fine points of the game, every time you ' score an early home run It will make the biggest kind of a hit with her. DIAMOND GLISTENINGS Errora plenty. Forgot to stretch. 'Twas a brilliant game, anyway. Our coaching at tlmea was of the pink- tea variety, flat and very weak. Hurlburt'a bad throw to Sammy caused many a tegr to flow. Nadeau's flagrant error alao proved a trifle costly. Don't blame Jay Andrews and Kostal for the defeat. Look elsewhere. The man with the "massage" voice evidently swallowed a bunch of freckles. Julius Caesar's speech before the game Is reported as follows: "Ladle, and those who paid to come in."

BATTING AVERAGES It Is theae needles, piercing the cover, that 'make the perforations for the stitches. The balls are stitched by men, for women are not strong enough for this work. The thread used is cotton, for neither silk nor linen thread will serve . for baseball sewing. This Is becauae the ' alum used in the tanning of the covers I would break the fibers of linen. Thus balla sewed with silk or linen would be ; ripped apart before hree or four innlnga , were piayea. The men alt in saddles, astride, and - two wooden arms held the baUs firmly before them. They fit on a pair of cov- era. pun them tight with tweezers, clamp them together with staples," and then sew" them, with atrong thread of red or blue, through the perforations made by the machines. eaauf Bough After Sewing. After the sewing a ball's seams are rough. Therefore it is .rolled first by hand and afterwards by machinery. The I hand rolling lasts an hour. Then Into a- machine goes the ball, and round and J round it rolls, in a circle five feet in di ameter, till it haa traversed six or seven ' miles.

The Mayor's Action. The action of Mayor Pat Mulltna In decreeing that after the present fistic carnival no more fights will be permit ted in Butte came as a thunderbolt from a clear sky. Mulllns has always favored the "wide open" Idea, and Butte was rapidly becoming the Mecca of sports. and especially lovers of the manly art. ''Theae prise fights are getting alto gether too numerous," said the Mayor to Al Herford, manager of Joe Gans and Tommy Ryan. "I'm getting dis gusted with the whole thing and I'm of the bla- factory.

The average professional team put. from four to six new baseballs In play In the course of a game. The average' amateur team puta in play two or three balls.

That number was IT. :The "record wa made in "1898. . Only Amerloass Vas Balls. Of the millions of baseballs made none are used by foreigners. Baseball Is an American game and none but Americans play It. In small quantities, however, balla are exported. They go to Cuba, to the Philippines, and, during the boxer uprising, they went to China. For wherever Americana are, baaeball must be played, and wherever Ameri can soldiers and sailors are there base balls must be shipped. TWO GAMES TOMORROW On account of the rath this morning a game wI be, played tomorrow after noon, ana mi afternoon the regular game will be played.. On Sunday after, noon two games will be played, one be ginning at J o'clock and after a 10- mlnutes' intermission th other will be gin.

The Her rera-Broad -affair is declared to have been a job, and common report has It that Paraon Davlea cleaned up all kinds of money throughout the country by placing small sums in each center where Broad was a 3 to 1 favorite. These amounts were small in each place, ex cept penver, wnere a "Killing" la re ported to have been made, and In the aggregate they netted a handsome sum, Bishop and Herrera are said to have not been wise to the game.

The stops of Andrews. Raldy and Anderson for Port land and ZolRlera one-handed stop of a hot liner and Zinsser's work at ahort were of the rarest variety. Van Buren'a catch of a low, swift fly was a beauty and deserved the applause It received. Kostal pitched a careful, steady game. allowing but eight hits, two of which were of the "dinky" order, but th errors of his support together "with poor base-running, caused the defeat of the Browns. Nadeau dropped- an easy fly and Hurlburt made a vicious wild throw to VIgneux, which caused con- lderable damage.
