. GOOD pitcher and often hurls thu sphere

q. McGann and Bennett bothplsy short
stop. and the PLAYING of the former nas
excited general admiration during their
soiourn 10 tn. city. He is masnlfcent
in-felder aud his only fault II ovcf-conh-
dence. -
Bennett. who BY the way was born IN
Richmond. generally gathers IN tho mes
which hover around left-feld. and those
that escape him are frst-class base-hits.
Charlie Jones sturdy, big-iinbed iel-
low. who frequently pitches, gcheraiiy
PLAYS centre aold. and Ay in his direction
means batter out, unless ii is . wonderful
hit. lie is splendid batter. and moreover
a gentleman cvcrv inch. Jones Is enga2e1
IN tho tobacco business at Winston and
plav. ball merely for the love OF the sport.
lilo does not drink or use tobacco, aud SAYS
no believes Ia fair hall or none at al. lie
- one of the few on tho nine " no ABSTAIN
from kicking. Charlie ia the only genuine
"tar.hesl" on the niue, and isn't ashamed
Of the Old North State 10y any means he
has fine record on home-runs.
TINY HA,EowoS oyE. fIFrY GtMss
HAYDEN. tho Carolina rigAt-fcldcr. is
anot her gentle manly fellow. who not oniy
understands how TO play bail. but has the
rules all by heart. He 10 an excellent UNI
pre- and captain OF the team.
Tho Win.tons have PLAYED about sixty
games this season md only lost seven OF
these. most Of which the Donatians or Old
Dominions captured. Their nine are sup
ported by subscriptions and they are tX-
ceedingly popular in tnor own town.
whore they always draw excellent crowds.
THE OLD COMMONS.
After the Richmonds tho Old Domnions
are the next best PLAYERS o! this city, and
while they call Themselves amateurs they
really play professional bail. THIS club Is
composed nearly tntlrely Of business men,
and consequently they have not at oil
times had a full complement Of players,
and have had to borrow from other teams.
Nj Il. I. Harrison - captain OF the
Colts" "a they arc called. aud ~ an ex-
ccllent player VINO fills the positions OF
short. stop and centre-tleld most accepta-
bly,.
dorsey Cullen. their first basnman, Is
another clover sphere-manipuIator OF

The other PLAYERS on the nine arc
Palmer left field: APPRECIATE. pitcher;
| Armstrong and Lumsden, right field;
Crunp. centre field and 10 Iavlor, who
| generally does we'll wherever he splaced.
Tho Colts" have defeated the Winston
Blues two games out OF three ana also
| forced the DOnatians OH ono occasion 70
| ACKNOWLEDGE their superiority. Tho u
| tons Likewise lost three games out OF hVe
with them.
Murrav Mcclure, who ia perhaps the
| finest amateur pitcher IN the South. has
| tossed several times for the cots TINS
season. and with HIM III the box they con-
slder their nine the cock OF the walk.
ALMOST WITHOUT ArlER.
McGuire 10 undoubtedly q magnificent
| ball.rlavcr. aud stands almost without
! peer on any position in the diamond. HIS
reputation WAS won principally ny his
wonderful record on the University nine,
with which he was connected last year.
| lis curves are considered by professionals
and amateurs alike ~ perfect enigmas anu
! the ba se-hits made % him are few and tar
| between. Mcclure on second or third IL
| ne GOOD a. in the box. while his batting IL
a.wnys safo and timely. lie Is about the
only sclontifc PLACER in the city-that
| is 1, say, the only man who understand;
thoroughlv lust what to 10 at a critical
point with a moments rejection.
Murray" q, no Is better known, has
had some excellent Offers from protes-
sloual teams but az be PLAYS ball merely
for psstine (Icng student AZ me IN
versity) he has declined chem all. Cef-
tainly II he devoted hfs whole attention
To- the sport ne would maze opo OF the
worlds Guest pitchers. unless he diSap-
pointed his friends greatly. He played
with the Winston nlrc 81 Few days ago
when they were one man short, but wouid
acceYt no salary or reconpehss. Inc
Cardinals are delighted with hs cour-
tesy and SAY he is a. nice gentleman as
ne IS u good ball player.
