Deacon Jim White is working his annual racket of coquetting with the management of the Buffalo Club. He says it is not likely that he will play ball the coming season, as his farm, near Corning, N.Y., needs his undivided attention. Jim has made this same little speech every winter for the past thirteen years, and about the time the salary is raised to a figure that meets his views he concludes that the cows, watermelons, turnips and such can take care of themselves another year any how and signs a contract.
