Then there are more balls hit to the
Wt side of the iunor circle because
the sphere consumes more time in its
travel to the plate, and many a right
field batsman, or those who made an
effort to placo the ball in right field,
became left field hitters since the five-
foot handicap was tacked to the dis-
tance. This change has made new
plays in the infield, making the third
bag the keynote to the inner circle.

The anniversary of the death of

unveiling of a bust of the poet at the
University of Virginia. The move-

exfii-ises at Charlottesville was started
several months ago. When the char-

citled upon correspondence was begun
with a number of sculptors, and after
bearing from them the committee

New York. Dec. 4.—The netual trial of
Roland B. Molineux of the charge of
causing the death of Katherlne J. A lams,
began today. The proceedings today
were largely occuple«l by ithe opening ad-
drc.<s of the Assistant District Attorney.
At the request of council for the defense,
the Indictment before the July grand jury
was read to the jury. The Indictment was
read in full, the prisoner listening at-
tentively and composedly
When the reading of the indictment bad
concluded1 Mr. Weeks moved for Its dls-
mi.-sial, on the ground that ti*- proof
! was not sufficient.
j The court overruled the motion and
Asdstant District Attorney Osborne be-
1 ban bis opening speech. Throughout the

torney for the prosecution, the aecused

j contrast with tho demeanor of the

aguln, iis Mr. Osborne attacked tho char-
Isoter of up prisoner, tip- old ma<||t>ur t

• as the resu'4 of ov
irirg an action with
ever success the Brooklyn team has
> made this year is due entirely to ljiat
hustling manager. Hanlon is a man
who will not brook Interference, and
the record of the team has shown that
he has been right in every instance.
Nerve, persistence, determination
and knowledge well applied have been
Hanlou's strong points. When the
Brooklyn team showed Blgns of break-
ing up and the champion Bostons drew
alongside,the average enthusiast threw
up his hands and said that Brooklyn
had done her best and that Boston
would canter in. Within another week
Boston had fallen back and Hanlon's
men had regained a lead which they
have been steadily increasing ever
since. Hanlon has been severely crit-
icised on several points, but he has
kept his peace, never deviated a par-
ticle from his path, and his critics
have taken to the woods ln conse-
quenee. The cases of McJames, the
pitcher, and Jennings, the inflelder,
show tbe fo-eslght of the boss manager
of them all. When Jennings was nurs-
ing that glass arm, the directors of the
club wanted to trade Jennings for any-
thing or any old price, and they all
but succeeded in getting rid of him,
and would havo done so except that
Hanlon stepped in and stopped the
dickering. To the outside world Jen-
nings looked like 30 cents, but his old
friend and mentor saw that he could
be brought around, and the superb all
around work that Jennings has done
since is another feathor in the cap of
Hanlon. McJames found it almost im-
possible to get into shape this year,
would pitch good ball time and
unusual degree the intellectual and
spiritual characteristics of the poet as
they at. exhibited in his writings.
The bust is of bronze, representing the
poet ts leaning on one hand with the
other nervously clutching the lapel of
his coat. Th# expression of the eyes
has bee.i noted by art critics as being
unusual for bronze. When the bust is
in position on its solid i>ak pedestal it
is of heroic size. Ihe pedestal con-
tains a tablet, on which Is Inscribed,
'Edgar Allan Poo, 1809-1849, Student
t the University of Virginia, February
to December, 1826.'' There is on the
bust it.s'df a fac-slmile of the poet's
signature.
Th* Whipping Schoolman ter.
John Hawtrey 1:4 still remembered as
one of the famous whipping school-
masters of England. He achieved his
reputation at Eton, where he early
made the birch his sovereign remedy
for mora! Ills, and where his doEes
were never homeopathic. It was au-
tumn, says Alfred Lubbock, who hai
a vivid remembrance of Hawtrey'*
methods, ahd wo small boys used to
buy chestnuts and roa3t them over the
fin In a shovel. One day a boy named
F. who was a great favorito of liar*
trey , had a lot of chestnuts, and as
a special favor was allowed to make
use of the pupil room tire-, while pupil
room was still going on. Hawtrey wis
going !n and out of the room whPe we
were working,and on the occasion.com-
ing in rather quickly, he caught si^ht
of F. kneeling over the fire at ranging
his chestnuts. The boy's position was
iiresistible to any lover of the art cf
chastisement. Not seeing his face, and
-upposing It was one of the other boys
stealing the chestnuts, John Hawtrey
quietly took his cane from his desk,
and creeping forward on tiptoe, gave
the wretched F. n most tremendous
whack The boy Jumped up with *

"What they call the scrappy kind of
ball started in the old association,
and was introduced by the St. Louis
Browns, under Charley Comiskey, as
early as 1883," said Arlie Latham "I
was signed by the IJrowns, from tho
old League Alliance, nnd played third
base and caught for the Alliance team
| in Philadelphia. I replaced Billy Olea-
son at the third corner of the Browns'
diamond. Jumping from the Alliance
team to the St. Louli Browns was like
I walking from a Sunday school into

Karl Wagner is In favor ef shorten-
ing the championship season by open-
ing the first week in May and ex-
tending to the middle of October, thus
giving the player a five and a half
months' contract Instead of six months.
"You hear the same old bearded gag
every season from evary team In tho
league," says Mr. Wagner. "One or
more of tho players complain of char-
ley horse, rusty knee joints, or tired
arms. If the last two week«s in April
were devoted to practice instead of
championship ball, the players would
start the season in finer physical form,
and there would be fewer postpone-
ments of games. Scores of games are
postponed in April, thun resulting in
douhle-headera later ln tho season. At
the next league meeting. I will advo-
cate a later opening, say the first day
of May or during the first week of the
month of flowers."

Then the tutor saw who he was, and
said, embracing him "Oh, my poor

We, of course, were all delighted, and
