Heard and Seen at the Grounds.
We've been weak in the box sure
enough"
''If we could only have Dolan for the rest
of the season."
A loud voice from the bleacners to
Fatty Sharp VIXEN Dolan ob1eced to his
position while batting. "His feet are in the
way-Trilby feet."
Another voice in reference TO his
abdomen: ''Say do yer blow that up every
mornin'?"
Still another voice in reference to his
name: 81 guess his appettie's the only
sharp thing about him.
A voice to long and slender Dooley,
Sharp's successor at the bat. Say, you
oughter blow ourself up too"
Fred Doe is a good ball player, there's no
doubt about that.
If the management would kindly keep the
crowd off the grounds till theElast man is out
the majority of the audience would be very
grateful. II d ludli Is So liuPat1Shl IAoo Ae

down onto the grounds in the middle of the
last inning, bis nerves are in no lit con-

self, as well as everybody else, by staying
at home.
Lauder played perfect game at second

Southard is a good man on the coaching
line as well as Goodhart. Keep it up boys.
Weihl is as full of yigor as a steam engine
and as full of deviltry as the Devil himself
He can play second base and hustle ths
boys around the bases with any man in the
league. but he mustn't lame too many men
by running into them. 1t don't go down..
Cannon will pitch for the Murphy Balsams
at Saco today.
Slater may play today. and he may not
wi the chances that his leg will still be
too lame for him TO do SO. In that case we
shall certainly miss him. There is a big
difference between him and Ashe on first
base and at the bat.
Probably we can call on Dian at most
any time during the season we want to-

players" Nowhsre are such men so needed
as behind the bat. Goodhart is born
catcher. If he don't explode in some excit-

combustion, we are sure of good baokstop.
The Game Today.
The Portlands will play the New Bedfords
again today and Jack Daniels will pitch.
With DoIan's good example and his own
past record. Daniels ought to show up well

Lewiston also was happy last night. That
must have been a great game with Fall
River, much better than we played with
