Five of these clubs have won pennants during the peppery kid's tenure as a member of them. Not only that, but he played on one club that got such a big lead at the start of the season that it broke up the league, the first time such a thing was ever recorded in organised baseball of the higher classi fication. That was many years ago. Just because-they call him kid is no sign that Mohler has not cast his first vote. In fact he balloted on quite a few presidential nominees in his day, which started back in Galesburg, I1L, Decem ber 13, 1872. (We have the '72 from the kid's. own llps.) He says It is no wonder that he never had any luck when the "18" entered into his life, but then Mr. Mohler was Just a little bit grouchy over the Seattle slide upward at the ex pense of the Colts, when he said' these words. When He Broke Xn. Mohler played his first professional baseball at St. Joe in 1894. In 1895 he went to Des Moines and remained there until 1898, when he went to Quln cy. Owing to the Spanish-American war interest was distracted from baseball and the league went up the flue. The Quincy players shifted over" to London, Ont., and finished up the season In the international league.

Denver claimed him as a resident in 1900 and he helped to win the West ern league pennant for that burg. In 1901 he played for a spell with Denver and then came out to Oakland to Pete Lohman's old club. The next year, 1902, Walter McCredle, who had been with Mohler at Des Moines in 1896. when that team won the Western League pen nant, Joined the club, and together they helped Lohman win the first and only pennant that the trans-bay city boasted until last year. It was back to Denver -for the kid in 1903 and he remained there until July, when he was sold to SeattlJ, of the Pacific Coast league. He finished that season and 1904 with Seattle on a non-reserve contract, which permitted him to sign up with San Francisco in 1905. Mohler remained with the Seals until last winter, when he was released outright after seven years of valuable service, during which he captained the San Francisco team into the 1909 pen nant. Lot of Coasters There, Mohler in the old Western associa tion, in addition to Walter McCredle, now manager of the "Portland Coasters, played with Frank DJllon, manager of the Los Angeles club; Martin.. Van fiu ren, of the Sacramentor' club; Roy Brashear, of the Venice club, and Ike Butler, the big pitcher, who was well known on the coast up to three or four years sgo. "Talk, about your baseball clubs," said Mohler yesterday.

Hopkins Jenkins, principal of the Jef ferson High school and one of, the di rectors of, the league, says that it is against the rules of the league, and un til that rule Is changed the coaches will have to be content with giving their signals from the bench. Borleske hasjiad great success with athletics since he 'became director at the Lincoln High school, and he has hlglhopes of capturing the baseball title.

I was playing sec ond base and Walter McCredle was play ing shortstop, pitching and in the out field. Old-Pete Lohman, the brainiest ball player that ever- lived, was the manager. We lost the opening garpe of the season, and then we turned around and won 5 straight games, the greatest number of consecutive vctories until the Corsicana club of the Texis league won 28 games from May 28 to June 23, 1902. The percentage column became so topheavy tnat the other clubs took to their heels and the league busted up right there. "Well, we had a great club, and there was nothing for us to do but go barn storming. We traveled all over the mid dle states, playing anywhere that they would dig up a guarantee. One day it would be in a corn field and the next on an improvised diamond on the prairie. Oftentimes we would get into a real good ball park, and then we would cut loose. It was great fun, but I don't remember that we became millionaires from our Junket." TAJCXK riOH LITB Made-to-Order Clothes Have "PersonaKty " -s ...

When jbell time arrivpd yesterday afternoon It was decided that there was too much aqua J on the field, and the playtrs beat it back to town, , Most of the afternoon was spent in discussion of the new Colt lineup and its probable chance of bringing thelub to the front once more. It Is the con census of opinion that Williams will greatly strengthen the club by donning the mask and wltulpad and shifting Speas to first base and Pat Callahan to left field. Hellmann ought to be able to take care of third base until Dave Ban croft returns to the game after an en forced layoff from a sprained ankle. Lefty Stanley, who won the only game captured by the Colts this week, will bn on the firing line this afternoon for the locals, lie will probably be opposed by Big Dell, who put the Colts to rout last Monday. The clubs have lost two games so far this series, which will be made up when the Seattle bunch comes back for the second and final series curing the sum mer. IDAHO, MONTANA AND UTAH IN ASSOCIATION Amateur athletics in the states of Idaho and Montana are no longer un der the Jurisdiction of the Pacific North west association. - While on his way east from a visit to the Paciflo coast, James E. Sullivan, secretary- treasurer of the Amateur Athletic union, Stopped in Salt Lake long enough to organise the Inter Mountaln association. For many years there has been little or no amateur athletic work in Montana and in some parts of Idaho, but with the formation of the new association It is expeoted that many new cIudsh will be started. Becretary T. Morris Dunne of P. N.
