' ' Now that the bsseball' season ts here. the Old question as to who is the great est Diayer In the world will be revived. - Volumes' have' been written on the relative merits of La Jole end Wsgnor and more volumea will be written again this season. Both ol a vers hsve strong adherents. To'thona-who have never seen thsmen in act Iw-La'-JoU is the vbea u . ideal player, but keen Judges of tha aport are openly divided as to the merits of the men.- - -. - A NaUonal leaguer will tell you that Wagner la Incomparably better than La Jole. while a followervof the' American league la not alow In pointing to the superior merlta of the big Frenchman. 60 far as betting ability is concerned there te Ilttla to choose between the men. Both are topnotohers In thla respect., ., But when It cornea , to playing the field, running bases and usefulness Wag ner Is far superior to- La Jole, says an exchange. " , ,' .. The big Frenchman Is a great enough second baseman, but hs Is not 1n 1t with Wagner whon it CP" ..e.runo.'ns' bases, and outaide of playing ' sri.lu9"base Wagner Is much better" In any position than La Jala, culler to those who have-ojacie an IdeaT of La Jole, but It Is true. ' Hans Wsgner la undoubtedly -one of Tn-rTreatesnrt-U'eri Hie game liss eri'i known. He Is a-grest batsman, an . in comparable flelder or outfielder, and one of the best base runners the. gams has wr known; besides he has good whip and -can-wing them. afq'aaOecpnd to Vio man in the prof eeeion, - La Jole rnaturar grace i wnat makes him-such a favorite.- There, Is a touch of- the artistic In everything that the Frenchman attempts - With La Jole every move Is a living picture.' "v ... ' . . , .... . - 1 The big Dutchman ia a lumbering. awk ward runnerr batter and flelder. nut he gets results, and, that is what la wanted of a ball player! the same, as or a man ltiany other caning. ,- Ths only ; point where some 'experts think Wagner Is lacking Is In sameness. Burrthesr" are wrongtir tbts surmise; Wagner haa ehown that he can play un der dlf floultle aaweU. it any man. Another point In which,; Wagner exssle I Jole is that he Is nearly always1 in the- game. La Jole; on the contrary, seldom goes through a season without losing at least a month's time. One season It Is a bad leg. and another sea son it Is another ailment, l '- , The big Dutchman seldom mlssee a day. He ts alwaya in the game and can nlav anv Doeltlon. As to La joiee gameness, mere' le 1 luat aa much doubt as there Is to Wag- ner's;- - One day in St Louis I .a jole turned a trick that wee not entirely courageous The. Frenchman' waa hot' feeling at his best. His team waa struggling for the cennant. Cleveland was ' playing HL Loula and they.jieeded the game. Powell was pitching for the .-Browns, and toward the end of the game three of the Blues got on baaes. There were two men -out and. It was La Jote'a turn to bat. Powell had been making the Frenchman look cheap. . Napoleon, In stead of taking his' chance at bat. took a drink of water, returned to the bench and sent Thoney np. - Powell fanned Thoney and Cleveland lost a game that hurt its pennant chancse--aad which La Jola.-had ha been- courageous-aa. aoma , - 1 ir-r-!
