Collin Says There It Only One Real
Master, Ed Walah.
In the American Magazine Eddie Col
lins of tbe Philadelphia Athletics
writes about "Pitchers I Hare Faced."
Following is a part of what be bas to
say about Eddie Walsh, whom be re
gards as the best spltball pitcher:
"Walsh U tbe only real master of
the spltball I know of. Be was tbe
drst absolutely to perfect and control
it Most spltball pitchers are wild,
and they have trouble especially to
make tbelr spitter a strike and usually
have to resort to the fast one. but not
Walsb. Many times I have seen him
give a batter three balls and no strikes,
and then three spltters would go swisb
lug across tbe plate knee high, and tbe
batter would sit down. Walsb Invari
ably alms bis spitter nt one spot on a
batter namely, between the waist and
the knees. 1 have never seen n good
spitter that broke above the waist.
"Wnlsb was not a pitcher 1 dreaded
to bit against, because It was nerer a
battle of wits. You always knew what
to look for -the spitter. It was sure to
be in the same place waist to shoe
tops nnd It was not like the spitterg of
some pitchers, nt your bead one minute
and at your feet tbe nest In spite of
this It wag mighty bard to hit safely.
Although there was almost a foot

do it sitting in a rocking chair, bis con

GOLD BRICK BUILDINGS.
Skyscrapers, New York Finds, Are Not
a Paying Proposition.
In New fork's skyscraper belt where
tbe buildings run from one to fifty-Ore
floors, tbelr average height Is under
six stories and a half. Only half a
dozen skyscraiiers In all tbe city may
fairly be carted beautiful, though a
larger number are admirable, feats of
engineering.
All the more noteworthy, then, Is the
calculation of the secretary of New
York's height of buildings commission
thill, allowiug for depreciation, the
skyscraper's Investment return Is but
Vri per cent. Nor does this class of
cdilice profit tbe community more than
the Individual. The cost In light and
air Is supplemented by the fact that
skyscrapers burst sewers with their
outliow. und force the city to Install a
high pressure system for Are fighting.
One often bears arguments against
the construction of- high buildings
based upon aesthetics. Tbe most ap
pealing argument is likely to prove
that of dollars and rents. Unless as
an advertising proposition (which need
not greatly concern us) skyscrapers
don't pay. New l'ork bas found this
out rather expensively. The results of
the experiment are respectfully refer
red to all those growing cities In
which, as a matter of local pride, sky
scraper construction Is now so earnest
