sANGuINE JACK CROOKS.
Thinks the Senators Will Finish in
the First Division Next Year

The manager, who banks on the Senators
beirg snap in 1876 is Oft in his calcula-
TONS" sad Jack Crooks. in the Sporting
News office recently. why, the more l
figure on our team, the more convinced
am that we will beat out whole lot of
the fellows who finished ahead of us in
1S93. If you have any surplus pins, just put
all you can spare in what 1 am going to
say. Young James will be one of the most
effective pitchers in the business next year.
What do 1 base this opinion on? Nothing
but his work. He IS a second Hawley, and
you know l saw Pink developed right here
In ST. Louis. James has speed to spare and
he has the advantage of Hawley, because
he is not erratic in disposit. on or any other
way. l have seen Mcclure lose his balance
when catching James, the ball came to him
at such terrific speed, and l guess old Jim
amt knocked back by many pitchers.
Il have a world of confidence in Maui and
Mercer. The latter'S heart will be in his
work next year, and everybody knows what
great ball AL Maui pitched until he was in
jured. He's all right, and so is Varney An
derson, who can hold his own with the best
of them when he is required to pitch not
more than two games a week. There's four
tirst-class pitchers, with five more N re-
serve. Wordsworth, young south-paw, is
the most likely of the lot Don't think for
a moment that we won't have a tip-top in
field.
..DeMontrevile is wonder, and he'll
prove it. Scheibeck will be kept in reserve.
l guess there won't be airy flies on our out
field. Setback, Abbey, Lush and Brown will
do in any company. McAuley Will help Nc
Cure out behind the bat. That is, if Jim
loses finger or breaks a leg, he may lay
off for one consecutive game and VIII give
the young fellow CHARGE.
Joyce will be our captain, and we will
give .Sc-appy' loyal support. Look out for
the Senators next year and take all of the
many chances you'll have to put a small
bet on us. Why amt 1 at the track today?
No racing; you see, the going is so bad that
the races were postponed Oh, am making
expenses. l guess-t have as good line on
the skates as anybody. Quote me right
about the Senators finishing in the first d.
vision, for l am not kidding"
The Sporting News adds: Jack Crooks is
slated to captain the Senators next season.
Poor policy to have second baseman act
as captain Playing the position gives him
enough trouble. - Cincinnati Times-Star.
Joyce is the man.

F. C. Smielau '97, of Cincinnati, Ohio, has

oHnTaTTAN UNITY
should DO Fact In Spirit ifNot in Form,
Says IIishop PetsFkin.

shOuld DO Fact In Spirit ifNOt In Form,
Says bishop Petsrkin.
Yesterday morning at st. Matthew's
p. u. church, ChRpllne street, Right
Rev. Bishop George W. Peterkln, OF the
West virginia diocese, occupied the
pulpit and preached an eloquent sermon
10 a large congregation. In the after
noon he oticiated at well attended ser
vices at 81. Andrews mission, on the
South Side. Last night he preached at
st. Luke's, on the Island, taking as his
subject, christian Unity"
Christian people, said the bishop, are
PRAYING the world over In a more or less
Intelligent manner for the advent OF
Christian Unity. This feeling has been
engendered by centuries OF strife
among the Christian peoples OF the
earth. In upeaking OF unity he did not
mean uniformity. which might be a
help to unity. He spoke OF the true
unity OF spirit, and in this connection
referred 10 the liberal stand taken by
the Protestant Episcopal church In Its
book OF prayer.
Though all Christians desire unity,
most OF them want unity on their own
standard, and say, 70, II the world
would only come to our church,"
Uniformity Is not essential to unity.
The bishop spoke OF the persistence
with which some Christians hold for
the non.essentlRla, losing sight OF the
essential. DissentlOns In the Christ
ian churches were referred 10 with the
waste OF power for good by rcason OF
division and friction. We should en-
tleavor always to keep TO the unity OF
the spirit. There is substantial unity
already and for this Christians should
feel thankful. This spirit OF unity Is
best shown in the spirit Of fraternity
shown in tho work OF the missionaries
Of the various churches This unity Is
evident-a practical, visible unity.
