FOR LITTLE PEOPLE.
THE BEST THINGS HANG HIGH.

Did you ever notice. my little lad.
That the reddest apple on all the tree
Has alway- SWING from the highest limb

You may look and long, you may scold and
sigh
You viii find as We all have found in tine.
That looking and longing will not avail
II you get the apple you VIII have to climb
Did you ever notice my little lass,
That the sweetest rose is hedged about
with the sharpest thornsf II You gather Il
You must conquer the thOrns or do without
But the poison flower has no guarding thorns
And the dead fruit ever lowest lies.
They grow in our path within easy grasp
With fatal beauty to longing eyes
You must learn this lesson and learn it we'll
It's lesson that all ths world must learn
Whether big or little, or rich or poor,
You'll meet it, no matter which way you turn.
In this queer, old world. the best things hang
high.
SO high that we ever must climb to reach
But the evil lies low in easy grasp
And the choice to be- made. God leaves 10

Danny" Richardson. who will in all proba-
bility play on second base. though he NAV be
transferred to short stop, played with the New
York League Club ever since 1884. excepting
the season he was with the New York brother
hood nine. He has probably been the subject
OF more base ball literature during the past
three months. owing to the New lorks' claim to
his services after he had been assigned by the
committee on players TO Washington, than any
base ball player excepting Fred Prefer. He
was obtained by Manager Barnle with Roger
COnnor from the New Iorks for the Wagners'
athletic team last fall W hen the association be-

when even the best fielders made errors. DUFF
fee is Woodworking player and keeps himself
in condition. as is shown by the fact that he
took part in 124 games last season, when he
played with the snappy Columbus team. He
covered center field in forty-cight games
and stood third among eleven felders
and sixtv-seven games in left heid.
His fielding average IN the FORMER
place was 1888 and in the latter 1856, showing
that he is equally at home in both places. He
is jealous PLAYER and will try for the most
difficult balls. consequently making errors
where other players would allow a safe hit to
be made. 1t is this earnest style OF playing,
regardless of records, that makes what is
was .306, the highest Of any one on the team.
He was at bat SOP times. made 70 runs, l54
base hits 46 sacrifice hits and Al stolen bases.
CENTER FIELDER HOY.
Hoy, who will cover center field, is we'll
known here and very popular. He is regarded
as one of the swiftest runners in the outield Of
any in the country. Ho occupied the same po-
sitiou in the Washington nine when it was in
the National League three years ago and won
the hearts of all base ball cranks by the nimble
way in which he would dart after a, fly ball.
He came with Wilmot from the North
western Association when the league made
such extensive raids on that body.
He took part in 100 games last year with the
st. Louis Browns, being 500 times al bat,
making 131 runs (more than any other player
on the nine), 155 base hits, 81 sacrifice hits,
stealing 81 bases and having batting average
Of 1896. His fielding average was .912.
LEFT FIELDER DONOVAN.
Donovan, who has supplanted Wood in left
field. and who began this season with John
Twins Boston Blues, played here some time
last year, after beina most of the season with
the Louisvilles. He was member of the cham
pion league team Of Brooklyn in 1890 and also
played in Boston. He is tall well-formed,
young man, hard hitter and fleet
base runner. He ranks next to Duffea in bat
