PITTSBURG CLUB
NEW YORK, Oct. 16.—Jimmy Cal
lahan, who made way for Clarence
Rowland when Charley Comiskey de
cided Callahan was not the man to
manage the White Sox into an Amer
; ican league pennant, has done some
! things to the Pirates which may ele
vate the Pittsburgh club to a point
where it again will become a pennant
contender. Jimmy has tinkered here
and there, dropped players, changed
I the positions of others, and has put a
I little more all-around fight into nearly
I every corner of the squad.
Fred Clarke bequeathed Callahan
i several good ball players, among them
being, of course, Hans Wagner. Cal
[ lahan also found Max Carey, A1 Ma
maux, Bill Hinchman, Douglas Baird,
Doc Johnston, Cooper, Bob Harmon,
Dan Costello, Jimmy Voix, Gibson
and Murphy. Of these only a few re
main and their places are being filled
by youngsters who are learning to
play the Callahan brand of baseball.
Callahan always has been a marvel
at developing pitchers. Glance over
the record he made with the White
Sox. He left behind him what once
was a most wonderful collection of
slab artists, among them being Joe
Benz, Red Russell, Jim Scott and Ed
die Cicotte.
Urban Faber also had his major
league baptism under Callahan tutel
j age. Consequently, one would expect
Callahan’s pitchers to be the brightest
spot in the new Pirates, and the ex
pectation is well founded. Callahan
already has begun to build up a pitch
ing staff which in time should give an
excellent account of itself.

is one of the most promising . Alrea
, fly he has won his spurs in fast com
pany and will be given all the oppor
tunity in the world next spring. There
is no use to discuss A1 Mamaux. Hi
has been a star for several years
Evans also'appears to be a comer, am
two others who spent their first yea
in the majors this season are Mille
and Jacobs.
Warner and Baird are the candi
dates for third base and both are fim
performers. Jimmy Smith, short
stop, is a miraculous fielder, but woe
fully .weak as a hitter. Carson Big
bee, a real hitter, but an outfielder by
rights, has done such good work a
second base that he may be retained ii
that position. There is little chanci
that Doc Johnston and Hans Wagne:
will not split the first basing betweei
them next season.
Bill Hinchman may be out of i
big league job next year, but Ma:
Carey and Farmer are two excellen
fly chasers, and one more man woul<
round out a fairly efficient outfield
Callahan finished fifth this year, ii

ished. There are reasons to believe hi
will do better in 1917.
Prospecting on the left limit o:

LONDON, Oct. 10.—(By Mail.)—
r Its straw colored and silky and can
- be seen with the naked eye on sun
i shiny days. Sometimes the boy re
* porter himself can see it when he
' gets his face close to the mirror in
i his hall bedroom and manipulates the
single electric light that’s made and
i provided.
Then he runs a finger over his lip,
; feeling the struggling bristles and re
I marks kind of inwardly, “By gosh; it
. is growing.’’
i Pretty soon, say by Christmas, it
• threatens to become a full-fledged ale
! strainer; a soprano mustache just
like the army officers wear. Then
this American may bound about the
■ boulevards in gay abandon, without
. that conspicuous, naked feeling.
He’ll be a regular Londoner; a tea
. drinking, haw-hawing denizen of the
I dankling gloom.
Already he buys his cigarettes by
the ounce and carries them loose in
| his side coat pocket with a box of
. matches as big as a Minnetonka bung
alow. Aye, that and more— for he
' lugs his silver-mounted walking fur
niture wherever he goes and leaves
. his shoes outside the bedroom door at
1 night to be cleaned, knowing they
' won’t be swiped.
i His London boarding house might
be more comfortable and still escape
the curse of luxury. But romance
lurks within, which partly compen
sates for the rest of it.
One-thirty-one Boston Square is
where our hero hangs his millinery.
Step right up, gentle reader, and visit
i the blonde, give ear to the. gurgle of
i musical soup and learn now to chauff
an English bathtub.
Having shivered through a long
span of winters in the meagre heat
i ofgrate fires the wealthy and genial
! landlords of London still hold out
i against the furnace. Some have in
stalled regular bathtubs as a conces
sion to progress but the bathee has
to run a gas thing-a-ma-jig like a
flivver to heat his spoonful of water.
But to get down to the dining
room—
The blonde sits. over in a corner
at a little table of her own, right
near the window, so she won’t have
\ to meet the transcients. Slit-eyed
and sinuous, topped with a crown of
sunset waves, she is the reigning
queen of the hut; captainess of the
polygot bark.
i She is French, and, gentlemen,
j some blonde.
Number six, at the main trough,
; the gink with the hedge on his chin
j is a Belgian herr. The old boy with
\ the billy-goatee, is a Russian. Wait
j till the soup comes on.
An, tne Herr strikes up a sprignt
ly melody, rich and full-whiskered,
with lilting cadences and gurgly
trills. Its symphony In pea-minor,
with a consomme obligato played by
the man from Moscow.
They top the bill of fare, these men
from the continent. Others there are
j at the cosmopolitan board, it is true,
! including two youths from the middle
j west, but they are a mere backdrop
! for the star act.
| An American soon loses track of
I his breakfast grapefruit when he
j moves into this boarding house. In
j stead he gets marmalade. Cream is
| a luxury of the beastly rich; boiled
I milk is served in its stead when the
ordinary mutt has coffee. Flap-jacks
haven’t been heard of yet and the
only variation from bacon and eggs
is eggs and bacon.
The chef is a wonder. He comes
from Paris and has a fit every time
the street pianos play “La Marseil
laise.” Chef, however, is one of those
absent patriots—too busy to fight.
He goes out in the evening after sup
per is served and at closing time is
delivered, thoroughly boiled, to the
residential doorstep.
Chef swelled up like a pneumatic
mattress when one of his American
guests called him “Major,” but he
never heard of Coxey’s army.
This is the place and these are the
people described in letters to the
folks in Chicago. It is not an unusual
house for London and the people are
merely routine folks. Wait till that
mustache grows—then the boy re
porter will be one of them.
