Present Giants of the League.

The title of Giants as applied to the New
Yorks this season is a misnomer. Outside
of Roger Conner and Amos Rusie most of
the New York players belong to the mid
get class. Imagine Eddie Burke. Shorty
Fuller, Jack Doyle and George Davis pos
ing as giants. The Chicagos are now the
Giants" of the league as far as stature
Is concerned. Your Uncle Arson in making
Up his team for this season rather ran to
big men. No less than half a dozen of the
Chicagos are six feet and over in their
stocking feet. The big men on the Chicago
team are Lange, Decker. the two Camps

The Chicagos will wear home uniforms of
solid white the coming season Every
thing-stockings, trousers, shirts and caps
will be one shade. They will also wear
long double-breasted white sack coats in
stead of sweaters. White has a tendency
to make a man look larger than he really
Is. Anson's men done up in solid white
will look big enough to scare their oppo-
nents into giving up the game without
striking blow.

The officers received information that the
vacant house would be visited last evening,
and so they went on watch soon after sun

The "Tackey" Players the League.
Players who are so thorers Wy in earnest
that it is like robbing them Of money to
lose a game, others who have hobbies and
are superstltious and still others who are
chronic GROWERS and kickers belong in a
class known in base ball as "Tackey"
Some of the best players in the business
hold a high grade in the ''Tacks'' division
A great team could be made up of ''Tackey"
players. How would this do for a 'Tackey''
team: Catchers, Billy Earle, Jack O'Con-
nor and Kid Miller; pitchers, Kid Gleason,
Tom PARROT and Gus weighing; first base,
Tommy Tucker; second base, Jack Crooks
third base, Patsy Tebeau; shortstop Jack
Glasscock; outfielders. Bug Holiday, Bro

A Philadelphian's View Of the Sena-
tors.

Sporting Editor Diddlebock Of the Phila-
delphia Inquirer, who has seen all three
games played by the Washingtons, says of
them in reviewing the condition and
strength of the league clubs: ''Washington
is fortunate In having a good manager
and while the team Is comparatively new,
the players composing it have already
shown their ability to play ball, and il
their weakness in the pitchers box can be
remedied the Senators are bound to stand
well up in the second division"

gesture full OF bathos. 1t was sad and
displrlting to see.
The play proved to be an adaptation OF
Richard Voss's "Eva,'' and the version
Is said to have been made by Miss Morris

bands house on n ludicrously small
pretext. She has done no wrong. Her
old lover has merely called upon her,
and she informs her husband OF the
visit. Thereupon he flies into a tantrun
and turns her out of doors. She goes e
the house of the old lover, Coun ALFRED

there meets a girl whom he has he,

TO A PATRIOTS MEMORY.

New York did honor to herself y%ester-
day in honoring the memory Of the pure
patriot and eloquent advocate OF uni
versal liberty. Louis Kossuth. Despite
the unfavorable weather, the memorial
exercises In the morning, afternoon and
crowds OF Hungarians and their de
scendants, who rave emphasized their
devotion to the sentiments that stirred
the heart and inspired the tongue Of
their world-renowncd c~ountryman, by
becoming citizens of the American Re
public. Nor were they alone in their
tribute to the dead hero. Citizens OF
all n%ationalities Joined In the ceremonies,
and the pulsntIon of every true Ameri-
can heart was quickcned by the honors
paid to Kossuth's memory.
The mission of such men as Louis Kos
suth may not be n success. Their
grand and noble dreams may never be
realized. They may be doomed 10 trials,
prosecutions and sufferings: But their
lives are sanctined. for they make al
mankind noblcr and better and purer
their memory Is blessed, for It serves
as n b~eacon-light OF unselfish devotion,
OF broad humanity and of true patriot
ism to future generations.

that is beneficial. Try and interest them with the

this way you can keep them around you. In Sc
