PAID $12000 FOR RUSSELL?
Connie Mack Thought to Have Been
Asleep If He Ever Paid That
Sum for Pitcher.
They say Connlo Mack paid $12000
for Pitcher Russell of tho Ualtlm'nro
club. Acquaintances of tho nstuto
manager of tho Athletics nro from
Missouri however. If Connlo Mnek
ever paid $12000 for any player ho
must bo addicted to sleop walking
or has changed his system most rnd-
Ically says Chicago Sunday Sporting

Heretofore Connie has been content
to get his players very cheaply and
develop them himself. Plank non-

George Huff Found Him.
By ARTHUR HOFMAN.
I nlways played ball for the pleas-

pany nnd mnko a hotter salary than I
could as a bank clork. Also I do-
clded enrly In my career that baRobnll

I started playing ball with my broth-

tained n baseball team. I noticed that
I received more nttentlon and was

ball player and decided to become a
better one. I had no Idea of devoting
nil my tlmo to the game. I played
Saturdays Sundus and holidays and
worked in tho bank the rest of the

I got Into tho Trolley league and
playod good ball but never had an
Idea of becoming a big leaguer.
I was getting $10 a gsmo for play-
ing with a proviso that If weather

I got nothing. Ono day wo were
playing in Knst St. Louis nnd tho

til Seleo left tho team. That shows
how lucky a player may bo. If Saleo
had stayed with tho team I probably
never would havo been heard from.
He did not think I could play ball and
wanted to let mo go. Chnnco how-

Chance's confldenco did moro to make
mo a ball player than anything else. I
felt that ho was risking his own repu-
tation on mo and wanted to mnko good

that confidence ono In nnother that
has helped mako tho Cubs n great

whether ho fits Into n team and Is In

DELICATE POINT AT ISSUE
Whether Guest or Hostess Should
Make First Move for Retiring
for the Night.
TTmIII l... n...i !... i. ...tit 1..1.1..
I ul iu 11111 ui iiiuu it win !iuimuiy
bo a mooted question whether guest or
bostesa should mnko the first movo for
retiring for tho night. When stnylng
In a house for tho first time this Is ono
of tho most difficult points for a guest
to decide and It takea a great deal of
. tact nnd discernment to arrlvo nt a
corroct conclusion.
In tho summor house at country or
seashore the chancos are. If the host
goes to town tot business every day
that tho whole household Is up enrly.
Tho hostess is certainly as n rulo If
her husband Is a business man. In
that caso It la almost essential that
thoy go to bed oarly. Logical ns this
conclusion may seem n guest fears to
suggest going too early to her own
room lest sho should seem to bo bored
during the ovening nnd thus It Is
when both really would like to turn
In nt a reasonable hour thoy and oth-
ers aro kept up by b desperate at-
tempt to bo polite.
If any rulo of proceduro may he laid
down for a strangor In tho house It Is
to And out as soon as possible at
what tlmo breakfast Is served and
when the host goes to town. It Is a
Bafo method if ho goes early and es-
pecially If breakfast la Borvod for nil
at nn early hour to suggest retiring
by ton o'clock at tho latost nnd In
moro than ono hausohold In tho sum-
mer tho samo people who turn night
Into day In tho winter go to their
rooms by nlno o'clock In tho evening.
It Is hotter for guosts to err on tho
side of going loo soon than too late
for nothing will mako strangers moro
unpopular than to overturn tho com-
fortablo habits of tho household.
Host and hoatess aro not required to
go to their own rooms becauso guests
may havo rotlrcd to theirs hut thoy
aro obliged to stay up If tho strungor
makes no movo to rcttro.
It Ib by no means difficult even for
a porfaon making a first visit to sug-
gest retiring. Sho may say that she is
tired from having been so much out
of doors or that tho heat Is rather
trying or any othor such Blmplo ox-
uso ns may como into hor mind and
declaro that sho would llko to retire.
Sho makes her good-nights then at
once and tho host and hostess aro at
liberty to follow Uolr usual customs.
