Pauline Joran, the violiniste of
the Campobello company, is making
name for herself, and will one day
reap the golden harvest Of those who,
possessing genius, make it go hand in
hand with study and perseverance.
Although young in years, she has had
a wide artistic experience, having
passed two years in the Australian
colonies, where she delighted thous-
ands of people by her artistic and re-
fined playing. She is in herself a
star, and deservedly SO, Wherever
she appears her rare talent is imme-
diately recognized. Nothing requiring
rapidity, power or tenderness seems
beyond her attainments; but with all
this she studies many hours daily;
for, apart from her own natural de-
sire to work, she has received suffi.
cient encouragement at the hands OF
the public to guide her enthusiasm in
the right direction. Her style is
characterised by vigor OF execution
and the perfect command OF the bow {;
and she produces effects that recall
the memories OF Remenyi. A few i'll
troductory bars Of Wieniaioski's sec
ond "Polonaise Brilliante" convinces
her audience that they are in the
presence Of an artistic OF rare ability
and she never fails to arouse that en-
thusiasm which is the most con-
vincing proof of sterling merit duly
recognized and appreciated. Signor
Campobello, under whose manage
ment this young lady and her sisters,
Elise and Lulu, are now appearing, is
is perfecting arrangements for them
to make their debut in England next
summer at the Grand Festival Con-
certs held at the Crystal Palace OF
Lydenham.

railway station; B, C, the grand stand, B
showing the portion reserved for ladies' ID,
the bleaching boards; E, carriage space.
The work of remOdeling the ground is
in charge of Thomas Wilson, who has
been their general custodian. The re-
arrangement of the diamond was done
under the direction of Manager Good
ing, with the advice of w. f. Kreig.
The grand stand, circular in form, will
completely shelter its occupants from
the sun, and will seat nearly double the
number formerly. One-third has been
separated for the benefit of ladies, who
will now be kept away from the. noisy
occupants of the bleaching boards. Di-
rectly under the ladies' stand is a nicely
fitted up room for the local players, while
similar one under the opposite end will
accommodate the visiting teams. The
ticket.effice is at the corner nearest the
various stands. After game large
gates are thrown open to admit of easy
egreSS. In the corner formerly oceu-
pied by the entrance space is laid Off
for carriages, which was badly needed
last year.
The Encouragement of the diamond is
also an improvement, giving better
view of the game and throwing more of
the field between the foul lines. Play
ers' benches will be at either end of the
grand stand, and the backstop will be
at right angles to the line of pitching in
stead of obliQuely as heretofore.

CATCHING TALENT.
The Receiving Ends of the Batter
les Are All Right.

Three catchers have been signed for
the coming season and the management
believes they are ''all right" Two are
new and unknown, and one is we'll
known and popular. The importance of
this position can not be Overestimated.
With poor material at the receiving end

greatly weakened and often entirely de-
Stroyed. 70 large extent the catcher
is the balance of the team, and upon his.
steadiness and efficiency depends the
team work. Accuracy in throwing, Wig
lance in watching the bases and cool
ness at critical plays are absolutely eS-
sential to the position. Manager Good
ing thinks he is reasonably well fixed,
prospectively, at least, in backstOps.

THE FIVE PITCHERS.
Something of the Men, New and
Old.--What They Can Do

~ ieSO YAH 1--we
The art of pitching has been reduced
to such a silence that at least half of the
strength of team lies in the delivering
end of the battery. 'Give me a good
battery and nine sluggers and I'll win
the game" was the remark of an astute
manager, Within the past four years
the science of pulling delivery has
been carried to such perfection that the
pitcher is the central man of the team,
and virtually controls the game. The
heaviest and surest hitters lie so far
within his power that to many the game
is robbed of its interest, and a ''pitch-
er's game" became the synonym for
an exhibition in which the battery did
all the work and the several fielders
stood idly in their respective positions.
Last years rules were calculated to rob
the pitcher of his power and enliven the
game by allowing more free hitting of
the ball; the pitcher was prohibited
from hiding the ball before delivery,
the number of bad balls was reduced
and the number of strikes allowed the
batter increased. But, even then,
though the batting doomed up pro-
portionately, the pitcher still maintained
his autocratic position. For this year
the strikes have again been reduced to
three, so the power of the pitcher is
again augmented, and he will become a
more important figure than ever. He
is the high-priced man OF the team, and
is selected with most care.
WHAT MINNEAPOLIS HAS.
In the way of pitchers Manager Good
ing thinks he has his complement. He
has signed five men and is satisfied they
are good men, if not ''phenOmena."
Some of them are unknown quantities
and must be left to develop themselves
before any expression of opinion can be
given. Two of them, Winkleman and
Klopf, pitched here last season; Parsons
is professional; Sterling is Detroit
amateur, and RehSe local amateur
very highly recommended
WINKLEMAN, THE WIZARD,
is believed to have in him the making
of great twirler. Last season he was
OverWorked, playing nearly every game
and covering left field when not in the
box. This would ruin any pitcher.
When in good trim Winkleman's
deceptive left-hand curves puz-
zled the surest batters. and the
fact that he has held the ST. Paul slug
gers down to one actual hit and Des
Moines to as few, in respective games,
is the best measure Of his skill. If
played but twice a week and kept in
condition he will rank with any pitcher
in the league. AS batter he leads the
pitchers in the league, and for long
time last season threatened to carry off
the GLOBE silver bat. He is quite

young and is both ambitious and con-
scientiOuS, and will always play his

KLOPF, THE KID,
only begins his second professional
pitching season and is young man of
promise. He is made OF iron and never
Wearies, while his head seems never to
desert him. The last month of last sea-
son he pulled to the front wonderfully
and puzzled the Strongest batting teams.
In one game he shut DeS MOineS out
and in the next held them down to
three scattering hits and one unearned
run. His strongest ball is a rising in
shoot, conceded to be the most difficult
to gauge. An additional season will
give him the confidence and experience
necessary to make a good pitcher,
Catcher Kreig looks for rare
work from Klopf this year. AS batter
he has not made mark, being a long
and strong, but nothing OF sure hitter.
Last season he made number of home
runs, but has not had the experience to
make him reliable. He is but twenty
years of age and fine physical speci-
men.
D., PARSONS, THE NEW MAN,
pitched in the International league last
year with Toronto, and in the same
team Outranked Crane, who has signed
with New York and is doing great work
in the South. Manager GOoding thinks
Parsons is treasure, but the public
must take him on trust until he shows
his metal. His record is good through
out, but records are sometimes decep-
tive. Parsons has been fair batter and
fair base runner, as is usually the case
with pitchers, but his record of hits and
earned runs would stamp him as a first
class man. The Minneapolis public is
willing to expect good work from him,
and if it gets it will give him the hearth
est support.
STERLING, OF DETROIT,
is another amateur, which, of course, is
against him. He has played with the
Detroit team in practice games, and was
strongly recommended to Manager
Gooding by Manager Watkins, of that
team. He is a very young man, but a
trained athlete, and weighs 100 pounds,
with six feet of height. He has the
build of player, and is said to be able
to slug the ball. He will be given a
fair trial, and may justify all advance
praises.
REHSE, OF MINNEAPOLIS,
is also an amateur. AS acollege pitcher
he won many praises, and last year, in
playing throughout Minnesota, he
puzzled every batter who faced him.
Recommendations came simultaneously
from many sources and he was signed.
He has pitched against Billy Kreig and
Elmer Foster, and both OF them pro-
nOunced him good one. In batting
and bese running he is only average,
and is sti II an unknown quantity.

agent at Minneapolis for the
Burlington load. Last October, when
commissions were abolished by Eastern
lines, he quilted the company, and after
twelve years. service as railroader gave
up the business and purchased the base
ball franchise.
Mr.. G0oding is an admirer and was al
ways a liberal patron of sport, but has
had no experience in base ball; how
ever, he is a hustler. and has an
abundance of executive ability. He
knows the first duty of a manager is to
manage, and he will do it. He is
strict disciplinarian and uses neither
tobacco nor StimulantS in his business.
If he does not make a success of base
ball in Minneapolis, there is no success
in it.
The secretary of the team is Fred A.
Leland, who has been sufficiently
identified with sport in Minneapolis to
be well known. He is Brooklyn boy
and is just Manager Gooding's age. His
first interest in sporting matters was
developed as far back as 1869, while
living in Rockford, ILL.,, and he
claims to have been one of
the mascots of the old Forest City team,
which then included Spalding, Barnes,
Arson, Addy, Hastings and others.
For two seasons, as "kid," he was
chief water carrier and bat keeper of
the Forest Citys. In 1877 he entered
the employ of the Spaldings, and two
years ago came to Minneapolis and es-
tablished distributing depot for their
sporting goods. In sporting matters of
a legitimate character he has always
been to the front, and is now an active
member of the Lurline Boat club, Max
wa TObOppan Climb and Long Meadow
Gun club, and was last year president
of the Minneapolis Bicycle club. He is
much more Sanguine than Manager
Gooding of the playing powers of the
ball team, and thinks it will hustle hard

THE LEADING TOPIC.
Views of Various Men on the Up
permOst Thought in Minneap-


permost Thought in Minneap-
oils.
The question was asked several men
yesterday what they regarded as the
most important matter before Minneap-
oils to-day. Their variety of views is
expressed below:
Mayor AmeS-The most important
question in Minneapolis to-day is the
placing of our city back to where it for
merly waS-the enterpriSing and pros
porous metropolis of the Northwest.
The One-idea policy and fanaticism
which have been prevalent during the
past year have had their paralyzing eff
fectS upon business interests and real
estate values, which q liberal and cos
mOpOlitan policy, such as is enjoyed in
all other great cities, will tend to re-
vive.
Robert Hale-without giving the mat
ter too much thought, should say that
the most important question now before
Minneapolis is what can we do to ell
courage manufacturers to locate here.
The next most important thing is to
have the railroad Misunderstanding
settled in accordance with the plans
proposed by j. j. Hill, of the Manitoba
road.
Frank Lewis-The most important
matter before us is, who will be our
next president?
A, L. Haley-In my opinion the most
important thing before the Minneapolis
public is, or should be, how best to sup
press the scandals which are cOntin-
ually being printed in the daily papers.
This scandal printing diSgraceS our city
and in ureS our sons and daughters:
Rev. w. w. Satterlee-YOur question
is an exceedingly difficult one to an
swer, sir; but | would say that the most
important subject before Minneapolis
to-day is the election of a city govern
ment which believes more in the en-
fOrcement of the laws than it does in
the breach. At present the laws are adj
miniStered on the ground of eXpedi-
ency, and for no other reason.
Capt. T. Connolly-The most i'm
portant thing in Minneapolis is to get
good police force. 1t has been in ter
rible shape for year past, through
whose fault cannot say.
Thomas LaWler-The most important
question in Minneapolis, and, for that
matter, the whole country, is revision
of the tariff. If it is revised it means
the success of the Democratic party in
lnlS Sldlc.
Judge Hollins-About as important
question as l can think of just now is,
Aow can we compel the street car com
pany to remove the piles of snow and
ice it has heaped up in our streets,
stopping business and endangering life
and limb.
A. d. Smith-It is of great Importance
to Minneapolis citizens to know whether
we are going to be allowed to have a
self government or whether we must
submit to the dictation of few fanat-
les whb are killing the city. Then our
grand jury system demands investiga-
ton, for | can prove that for years past
it has been Systematically packed by
these despotic rulers.
l.. A. Condit-The most important
question before the people of this city at
the present time is the lowering or rails
ing the railroad tracks, so as to do away
with the grade crossings. 1t is ques-
ton which must be met sooner or later,
and the sooner it is disposed of, the
better it will be for the city.

THE lNFIELD,
New Strength With New Blood.
The Apparent Outlook.

= The apparent Outlook.
1tEhas already been stated that Min
neaholis was weak the season through
at the second bag. This weakness de-
mOraliZed the entire infeld, and to it
many of the defeats can be directly
traced. For this season the center bag
will be strong point, well covered.
The effect will be noticeable toward
third base, and better work will surely
result. A little reasoning and putting
this and that together will convince
even the kickers that for this coming
season the infield will be good one,
and will do all the work reasonably re-
sonably required of it. HAYES at first,
Brosnan, second; Shaw, short, and
Robinson, third, make up quartette
that should easily "eat'' everything
that comes in its direction.
TIM BROSNAN,
tain the team, will strengthen it where
it most requires strength. Brosnan
led the second basemen of the
league last season, and will endeavor
to repeat the experiment this year. AS
a fielder he is all that can be asked, and
as a batter he is fair. His strength,
however, lies in his faculty for handling
the men and getting out of them the
best work possible. Last season he cap
tanned the Des MOines team, and the
high place taken by that organization
was largely due to his good work. He held
the men together and improved their
team work, thing that Minneapolis
never knew.
~ DUNLAP. HALVES
will return to his old position at first
base. He is a good man, reliable in the
field and power at the bat. In the
early part of last season he played under
disadvantages which largely handi-
capped him, the principal being his fail
ure to become acclimated before the
hard work began. For instance, his
batting record was very high for 1856,
his splendid work the last half of the
season failed to pull him up to where he
should have been. On the last trip of
the team his batting was .442
and his fielding 1855. For a
time he was played on second base,
which rather upset him, as he was I'M
familiar with the position. His best
point is in hitting the ball. At times
when run depends upon batter's
ability to paste the sphere beyond the
diamond, even if in an Outfelder's
hands. Billy was reliability itself. AS
a base stealer he had few superiors.
though his boldness often amounted to
rashnesS in this regard.
a JOHNNIE SHAW
has been base ball study, and 1t was
difficult to say whether he was good or
bad, asa short stop. He came here last
season, heralded as fine player, and
much was expected of him. For the
first part of the season his work was
pronounced. He took everything in
Sight and showed himself the closest
base runner of the league. But he was
given teo much to do. The team had a
rank second baseman and an Indifferent
man on third, and the result was that
Shaw was given too much field to cover.

THE MANAGEMENT.
Hands and Heads That Will Con-
troll the Teams Destiny.

The franchise for Minneapolis is
owned and the team will be managed
this year by W. E. Gocding, who has
purchased all rights, privileges and
leases from r. o. Foster. Mr.. Gooding
was born at Cooperstown, N Y, April
16, 1858, land will have just turned thirty
years when the season opens. He had a
liberal education at st. Johns college,
and, developing a taste for music, re-
ceived abroad instruction on melody and
harmony with view of adopting music
as profession. This proved too slow
for him, however, and he decided to
enter railrooding as life profession.
He started in at the bottom and began
as a fireman. working successfully
through the positions of fireman, brake
man, telegraph operator, transfer agent
and finally became United States custom
broker at Neche, Oak. He left there to
accept the position of city ticket
St. Paul daily globe. [volume] (Saint Paul, Minn.) 1884-1896, 1888-03-18

He took wild chances and made errors.
He was roasted for errors where he
should have had credit for taking
the chance. A wonderful One-hand
catch would bring home the widest
applause, while an excusable muff
brought down undeserved censure.
Some of the papers criticised him Sc
verely and unjustly, and this was SO
Systematically done that it affected his
confidence. He lost nerve and became
an indifferent player. But he was as
the team had, and if he had been less so
his record would have been better. In
re-engaging him Manager GOOding has
done well and Johnnie will redeem him
self on the diamond this year. The
''cranks" will be glad to see him once
more in the field and his pretty wife in
the grand stand.

AS A BALL TOWN.
Is Minneapolis a Good Location
for Team or Is 1t Not?

Is Minneapolis Good Location
for Team or Is 1t Not?
Nothing succeeds like success. The
base ball manager knows this, thor
Oughly. For two years Minneapolis has
been "poor ball town" and money has
been sunk in the effort 10 support an
organization. So long as losing team
has the name of Minneapolis attached
to it, so long will it be poor ball
town." Even the cranks grow weary OF
going day after day to see the diamond
mopDed up with the local team, while
it is not to be expected that casual
patrons could stand it. To be a good
ball team, the home team must win.
There is no case on record where a city
of any size failed to support, morally
and financially, team that won a ma
jority of the games it played. With a
team that could do this, besides occa-
Sionally winning series from st.
Paul, Minneapolis would be as profit
able city as the association
can furnish. If the team could
only win majority of its home games,
all would be well, but Minneapolis has
never succeeded in doing that. When
it came to a game with st. Paul, where
local feeling ran high, Minneapolis
would fall down and allow st. Paul to
walk over her neck. Of the eighteen
games between them last season Mime
apoiis managed to win three. st. Paul
won eleven straight games, and how
could a community be expected to sup
port team that played such ball?
1t is confidently expected MIR. Good
ing's hired men for 1888 will make a
better showing. He has sized up the
weaknesses of preceding organizations
and will meet them all. 1t is not under
nant winners Or that he claims e anything my
in that line, but he believes he has fif-
teen good ball players and that they
will aid him in making record of
which the city need not be ashamed.
