THE RECORD OF THE NATIONALS
BATTERs AND FIELDERS.

Last in Club Batting aud Fielding-No
Game YestCrday-To Meet Boston To-
Day-A New Player secured.-Dis.
satisfaction Alleged to Exist Among
the Players.
The Washington had a day off yester-
day. To-day the club will play in Boston
and return home on Wednesday to open
the series with the Western clubs, Won
der Ahe's men playing the first game.
Thus far the Nationals have not COW
cred themselves with glory. The men
have batted hard in every game but there
seems to be lacking that important essen
tial to success-team work. Whether
this will be remedicd in the near future is
a mooted question. IL is unfortunate
that almost at the very commencement Of
the season, dissensions should arise in the
club. The Baltimore SIN this morning
says
"A number of the Washington PLAYERS
felt very uncertain about their positions
before they left for Boston yesterday
morning. Snyder, the new manager, is
confronted by pronounced faction in
the club which is unfriendly to him and
feels aggrieved because of Trott's dismiss
SAL Visner is regarded as a leader of the
dissatisfied element, and for that reason
he may be released. Although accounted
a great player, he has not been at his best
in the games so far played. McQuery' s
release and the transfer of Paul Hines to
first base are also contemplated. Snyder
announced that Keefe and Smalley had
been dropped before his departure. He
also said he might go behind the bat him
self II it becomes necessary, and that he is
praCticing to get in condition. Keefes re-
lease was surprise, as he was supposed
to be capable Of doing good work"
There is no doubt but what there is a
good deal of truth in that paragraph and
the feeling of dissatisfaction ought to be
squelched as quickly as possible. The
men who are antagonizing the new man
ager should be dropped as quickly as pos
sible, no matter If they are the best men
in the team. No club can afford TO have
such men among its members, more es-
| pecially club like the Washington.
Another change took place yesterday.
Pop" Smith, the veteran second base
man of last years Boston League team
has been signed and will play short prob.
ably in today's game. Hatfield will be
transferred to third base. Smith last
| year accepted 635 chances out of 692 op-
| portunities and has a fielding record of
| .917 His batting record was small-only
.229 Still he is good man OH the bases
| an excellent sacrifice hitter, and will
make good man for the team. Davis
and Visner will probably be released
within few days.

Professor .Tohn Philip .Sousd.

The musical critics of Chicago are con-
sidered the most exacting and particular
in this country. Professor Sousa and his
band won great victory at the city by
the lake.
The Herald said that Mr.. Sousa provided
a feast of harmony such as no other band
has ever given in Chicago. The comedy
numbers sent the audience into peals of
laughter and met with volleys of ap-
plause.
The Tribune said the playing, so far as
accuracy of note and purity of tone are
concerned, is so nearly faultless that it is
virtually the perfection of band music,
the shortcomings being only in some
effects obtainable only by an orchestra.
Aside from this the performance of the
band was in every respect the finest Chi
cago has ever heard.
Ada Gray at Harris BijOu.
That famous and beautiful play, East
Lynne" will be given at Harris Bijou
Theatre next Monday evening by the eel
ebrated artist, Miss Ada Gray. This lady
has attained an eminence that few people
reach. EAST Lynne" is her masterpiece,
and she gives the play depth of pathos
that cannot fail to move the auditor.
The sadness of the play does not prevent
its being one of the most beautiful in the
English language, and it is one that no
one should miss seeing. II deals with the
emotions in Il way that arouses the
deepest feelings, and has awakened many
heart and read many lesson. The
play will be given in a very complete and
careful manner. Ada Gray is well known
and her company has been selected from
excellent artistic material. Her dresses
are said to be extraordinary for their
beauty. There is no doubt that the en-
gagement will be one of unusual inn
portance.

WITH WHIP AND SPUR.
CLOSE or THE FIRST WEEK OF THE
JOCKEY CLUB MEETING.

The Continuance Of the Pleasant Weather
Attracts Large Crowd to Witness
the Flyers-Good Betting and Racing
Points from the Paddock.
The first week of the spring meeting of
the Jockey Club was brought to a close
to-day, and the fifth days racing both
in attendance and interesting sport,
proved as highly successful as any of the
preceding days.
Five races are on the cards for to-day,
and as steeplechase is to wind up the
days sport the attendance of ladies' was
unusually large. Nearly 1000 people
witnessed the running and thoroughly
enjoyed the sport
The betting was good and the odds
given excellent most of the races having
large fields.
Yesterdays Races.
First Race-L' Intrguante took the first
race with ease, making the third one
since the meeting commenced. Littleiield
won without using the whip, Bellevue
second and Return last.
Second RaCe-The public had tip on
Strideaway and pounded down the odds
from s to to 9 to 5. India Rubber and
Belisauris were well backed. The horses
got off in good shape. Hypatica taking
the lead around to the head of the stretch
when Belisauris and Strideway came
away and the latter won by length
Hypatica third.
Third Race-My Fellow was strong
favorite, but the knowing ones took a
fancy to Gallifet. My Fellow took the
lead until the stretch when he swerved
and Gallifet had things his own way, win
ming by two lengths, the fayorite second,
and Virgie third.
post and Gyda got off with good length
ahead. Rounding into the stretch Cor
nelia came through the ruck, collared the
leader and won by a half length, Gyda
second, Costa Rica third.
Fifth Race-Lotion was the favorite but
kyrle b. carried considerable money.
There was long delay at the post, but
when the horses got off, they were beau
tifully aligned. Mirabcau and Kyrle b.
made beautiful run home, and Honig's $
entry won by a length with Mirabeau
second, J. ]. O'B. third.
Points from the Paddock.
My Fellow tired of his weight and CALI.
fet won the Pabst handicap, lust as the
CR1TIc-REcoRD predicted yesterday.
Mirabeau's owners claimed foul in the
last race, but it was disallowed.
L'Intriguante has won every race in
which she has started.
India Rubber was well played on the
| strength of the race of Wednesday.
The time in the Strideaway race was ex-
cellent-1:43.
Mucilage ought to be good for place in
| the first race to-day.
The horse that beats Kitty T. in the
handicap will have to go it better than 1:43
With Hercules ont of the steepleohase
| Elpbin will probably carry the bulk OF
| the talents money, with place money on
| Pat Oakley and Grey Gown.
The railroad accommodations were 9
| great deal better yesterday than at any
| time during the meeting.
| Backers OF favorites have done well
| this week.
There may be several days extra racing
| if the good weather keeps up.
| There was but little betting in the first
race yesterday, the odds being prohibi
| tive at 10 10.
| The horses are getting in fine fettle, ant
the running next week promises som,
/ interesting sport.
