Good Feeling Among the Members and
Disposition to Hustle.
Now that the annual election Of the Poto-
mac Athletic Club is over, the members of the
organization will prepare themselves for the
various events of the year, of course making
a speciality of rowing, as they have done in
the past. AS the National regatta is to be held
here next August, it is the desire of the men,
bers to make as creditable showing as pos
sble. With that end in view, every available
man will be called into service, and 1t is proba-
BILE that coach will be engaged to look after
the oarsmen for the season. The discomfort
that has existed in the organization, and which
has caused the loss Of valuable men, has been
allayed, and there is an evident intention on
the part of the members to again push the old
club up to the high place it once held in the
world of aquatics. There is plenty of room
for such club as the Potomacs, and If the
members will bestir themselves everything
will be plain sailing. The club has excellent
boating material, and should have plenty of
men to go in the boats, so IL they will mu-
tually agree not to disagree and go to work
to advance the clubs interests success will
be the result.

GROUNDS DEEP IN MUD.
RAIN Has PLAYED THE MISCHIEF
AT THE RAIL PARK.
Doubtful il the Grounds Will he I'm Shape
Next week-Opening Championship
Games-The Spring Boom in Ath-
1etics.

The horrible weather of the past week pre-
cluded any games or practice of the home
team on their new grounds, Seventh and
Boundary streets, and IL any more rain should
come it will be doubtful II the opening cham
pionship game of one week from tomorrow
can be played. The grounds are in wretched
shape, as previous to that last rain and snow
storm OF March % and 29 the entire field was
ploughed up preparatory to leveling off and
grading. That storm made the place a mud
bed, and the other extra-heavy downpours of
the past week have added to the mire. The
grand stands ETC., are all right and ready for
chair-warmers, but, as said above, 1t is doubt
full If the grounds can be fixed up In shape
for the opening game If any more rain should
come Director Scanlon is out to the park
every day, and as soon as the place dries suf1i-
GENTLY to allow 1t he will place two of the
largest steam rollers in the city at work.
Mr.. Scanlon is sanguine that the grounds
will be In shape, an opinion that Keeper Fltz
shares. In the meantime the team will play
away from home to get what practice they
can in order to be in shape for the opening
game at Philadelphia on Wednesday next.
On Monday they play an exhibition game in
Baltimore, and may play there Tuesday also.
Then on Wednesday they journey to Phia-
championship game of the season. They will
play there also Thursday Friday, and Satur-
day, and then return home to meet the Bostons
on Monday. The men report that they are
all in good shape, and HERALD representa-
tive, who inspected them yesterday afternoon
at headquarters, is forced to admit the truth
of the assertion. They are splendid
looking body of athletes. In speaking of the
men, Dunlap, the second-baseman, said
that the team was a splendid one, grand
fielders, good s'stickers,n fair base-runners,
and, above all, were the most harmonious set
of players he had ever played with This
opinion from I a far.seeing e e Veteran tel lis is WORTH
something. Since the Phil idelphia game, in
which they beat out the Athletics by good
batting, the papers of the North are referring
to the team as the surprise of the year. To
show how the men feel about the team, it
was proposed to get third catcher, but the
ones under engagement said they would be
willing to do all the work. and that an extra
man was not needed, feeling shared by the
other PLAYERS.

Lawn Tennis.

The annual meeting of the Racquet Lawn
Tennis Club, held Wednesday last, resulted
in the election of Mr.. r. Brown as President;
Mr. FL. G. Painter, Vice President; Mr.. B. F.
Barnes, Secretary, whose address is 1928 Cor
coran street; Mr.. o. w. Brown, Treasurer;

ing put in the best condition and play will
begin as soon as the weather permits.
Mr. L. s. Elmer, well-known player, was
admitted to membership, as was also Mr..
Frank f. Greenawalt, who is placed among
the experts of the racquet of the Columbia
Athletic Club.
The RACQUET Club is in sound condition
financially as well as in playing ability, and will
be represented at Wilmington in the cham
pionship tourney of the Southern Association
by at least five representatives.

The 2. A. G. Election.

The annual election of the Potomac Athletic
Club took place on Wednesday evening at
their clubhouse, and the attendance was
larger than at any meeting held in two years.
The reports of the officers were read and
showed the club to be in healthy condition.
Treasurer Wardens report showed very
favorable financial state of affairs. The
interest centered in the election of governors,
the candidates being Messrs. G. Warden, G.
A. Zappone, j. G. Mccoy, U. S. Roulette, j.
G. Addison. w. E. H. Merritt and j. G.
Traylor. They were all elected unanimously
except c. A. lappone, but he, in spite of op-
position, was elected by an overwhelming
majority. At the meeting of the governors
the following line officers were elected:
President, G. NJ. Fague; Vice President, j.
G. Traylor; Secretary, O. P. Schmidt; G.
Carlyle Whiting, Financial Secretary; Charles
g. Warden, Captain and Treasurer; j. S. Nc

Fleming, the clever player, will not be able
to play for some time, owing to a broken
thumb
Hennons throwing and Harley's fielding
have been much admired. These men will
undoubtedly do credit to the team.
On Wednesday afternoon the Georgetowns
will open the season, having against them one
OF the strongest amateur teams of the season.
The grounds OF Georgetown College are
the finest in the District, outside Of the Ma
tionals', and clubs who play there will have a
fair field to play on.
The Georgetowns have admitted into their
ranks one of the best pitchers of this vicinity.
He is going to take course in general mathe-
matics, and hence will be eligible.
Mr.. P. j. Carlon, who will probably play
first-base, has been made captain of the base
ball team. AS co6perator with Manager
Denver he will undoubtedly do much toward
developing good team.
The Georgetown College team did not enter
the amateur league because they have games
arranged already that will keep them en-
ployed up to commencement day. They are
in sympathy with the movement, and Manager
Denver says he will arrange exhibition games
with the various teams.

NOW strongly Turns to Thoughts of Base
Ball, Rowing, and Lawn Tennis.
Around the Columbia Athletic house there
is bustling, and everybody seems bent on do
ing something. The baseball enthusiasts
have been making use of the court adjoining
the clubhouse when the weather permitted,
and the men have shown up very well in the
preliminary tossing of the sphere. Eddy
Walsh the clever pitcher, who last season
had trouble with his strong right arm, is now
pitching in splendid style, and says his arm is
all o. X. Then there is ''Old Reliability"
Sprfggman, who knows all the tricks of the
game. He is looking as big as giant and
apt TO play the game of his life. Capt. Louis
Wells is also in good trim, and says he never
felt better in his life. The players who have
shown up for practice convince him that
everything will be plain sailing for his team.
Jimmy Green never was better, and says his
eye is on the ball and he will make some
pitchers sick. Little Bolway is keeping up his
steady work and is in shape already to play
for the championship. Dickinson and DAILY
are ripe and will play splendid ball. In the
rowing circles of the club everything is still
quiet, owing to the bad weather. The oars
men, however, are taking exercise in the gym
nasium, and are gradually working of some of
the extra flesh that has accumulated since last
September. The tennis players are also on the

Billy Wise is pitching better than he ever did,
and says he is back again in his old form.
They have another pitcher in their ranks who
they say will develop into one of the fines,
but for the present they will keep him in the
dark. They have not yet secured grounds,
but have several in view.

as to admit eight clubs. Mr.. r. NJ. Larner,

Is the College Grad uats an Autocrat?

The position of woman in the different
portions Of the world was the subject a
number of gentlemen were discussing at a
st. Louis hotel the other evening in the
hsaring of a Globe Democrat reporter. In
China woman is bound TO religiously obey
mans slightest request. In Japan, it was
asserted, it WAS somewhat better, though
the influence of Confucius was seen here,
too. II met a European lady lately" said
W. f. Meyers, and the words she used
wero: America is the paradise for woman.
Here all Difference is paid to her sex. In
England it is the habit for the husband to
think that his wife is to consider him first
and fof everything, including herself
afterward. Carrie, will you get my
slippers?' Carrie, will you make a
brighter fire, or fetch my box Of
cigars?" But l will tell you" continued the
speaker, "the women we have to be on our
guard against in this country. They are
