THE OUTFIELD
Believed to Be Strong at Bat and
In the Field.

In the Field.
The most promising cOterie of the
coming team, in the opinion of the
management, is the outfeld. Few will
be the high balls sent out gardenwards
that are not readily eaten up. Jevne,
Mcclellan and Patton certainly make a
strong trio and will admirably hold up
their end of the game. If the remainder
of the team will do as well, Minneapolis
will give the strongest leaguerS hand
full of work.
LEFT FIELD.
Jevne is well known here, and this
will be his third season in the North
west. Two years ago he played half
the season with st. Paul. and last year
he covered center field for La Crosse.
AS a fielder he has few superiors any
where, and covers wide range with
almost unerring certainty. Base run
ming is his strongest point.and in this he
promises to lead the Western assOcia-
ton this year. Many are the hits he
has scored by cheating the ball to first"
when less swift runner would have
died an easy death. His batting is very
fair and during his California trip I'M
proved wonderfully.
CENTER FIELD.
McCullum is known generally as a
fine fielder and heavy hitter. For two
seasons he has played with Eau Claire
and was always the reliable star of the
team. Center field is his natural posi-
ton and few mutfS crop out in his gar
den. He is swift runner, with good
judgment, and ''gets under" about
everything that cOOmes his way. AT the
bat he is sure and heavy, and when he
faces the box fielderS naturally move
out.
RIGHT FIELD.
Little Patton is great favOrite in
Minneapolis, and his engagement for
this season gives general satisfaction.
No player has stood higher in public
estimation and none has deserved it
more. He is a safe player all around.
When hit is necessary for a run,
"Oney" can usually be relied upon to
supply it. AS base-runner he is a di-
plOmat, and can make the circle as.
shrewdly as the best, combining great
Judgment with short legs. His field
work was always satisfactory, though
marred somewhat by the fact that he
was compelled to cover third base at
unexpected moments. His record in
both fielding and batting is in every way
creditable and will not fall off this year.

ball-loving public, and is counted first

ball-loving public, and is counted a first
class man.
-, GRAVES
is, entirely new to Minneapolis, but
comes here with very good record.
The past winter he played in California,
and, showed himself an admirable
catcher, his accuracy in throwing to the
bases being his distinguishing point.
Asa batter he is only fair, but as base
fuhnerquite expert. Several years ago
he played at ST. Paul very fairly, but is
said to have shown marked improve
ment since then. His engagement was
recommended to Manager Gooding by
several players most familiar with his
capabilities.
JORDAN
is another new player never seen in
Minneapolis, though an old hand at the
game. He closed last season with Du-
tuth, but in the demOraliZed condition
of that team could do nothing to help
them. In two weeks of work, all in
Wisconsin, he acquitted himself with
credit, and was recommended by his
associates. He is good all-arOund
player and reasonably safe hitter.
1t has not been decided yet how the
batteries will be made up, and can not
be until the points of each player are
developed by preliminary practice.
Kreig will probably catch Klopf,as they
understand each other, and also Ster-
ling, whose delivery is speedy, while
the other pitchers will practice about
until an equilibrium will be reached.

THE NEW GROUND.
A Encouragement of Everything
---Great Improyement Noted.

The habitual warmer of seats in the
grand stand on the bleaching boards
will scarcely recognize the Minneapolis
ground when he seats himself for the
opening game this season. The original
arrangements of stand and diamond
were not credit to their designer. Not
only did he compel patrons to go the
longest distance from the station, but
afterward to sit in the blazing sun
throughout an entire game. The stand
itself was a relic of barbarism, and the
now. For two weeks force of men
has been at work, and the transforma-
ton is complete. The accompanying
diagram shows the improved ground:

I sketched my love at break of day,
And watched the pink and purple play
In fleeting moods across her face,
But colorS had / none to trace
That wonder-world, that witch's spell,
That laughing face love SO well.
At MONDAY, fervid, shadowless,
/ sketched her in scarlet dress
Red, passionate peoples in her hair,
Around each wrist aserpent fair;
/ could not catch the CLOVIS that dwell
Within that face love so well.
l sketched her when the day was low,
While somber clouds came trailing slow
Athwart the suns gray lumber light,
She, the sole mistress of my night
Nay! Vain my pencils task to tell
How fair the face love so well.
