Tne Pittsburgs gave Willie McGiIl a ''roast''

Arson and was pounded for Is hits. Chicago
played without an error and Pittsburs made

safe to say that this winds up Mr.. McGill's
career this wear with Chicago.
The University of Vermont defeated the

balls-the way Washington lost SO many games

Stoyey OF the Baltimores. "a. the spirit in which
the boys have set to work. All Of them are
putting forth their best efforts for the success
Of the club and the public may rest assured
that there will be no repetition of the conduct
which caused Baltimore to hold such low
place in the race last season. The recent
change in the infield was. think, a move in
the right direction. O'Rourke is much more
at home at third base than he was at short stop
and McGraw and ReitZ take to their new posi-
tons like ducks to water"

President Reach can now sleep in peace
The Pnillies practically complete. Gus
weighing has reported for duty, and this leaves
Allen the only one to be heard from. 1t is a
question if the club really intends to sign
Allen.
There's nothing like good start" says Pat
Tebeau in a letter, land We mean to go after it
hard at the very beginning" Two victories at
Pittsburg. whatever the result at Cincinnati,
would make the Cleveland fans hilarious.
Ewing and Kittrid3e think Pittsburgs team

him whether Louisville agrees on terms with
Gumbert or not.
