Among the Ball Players.
Manager Selee of the Bostons is enjoy
ing life at the Hot Springs.
There is no doubt that McGnnnigle
will manage the Louisville club next
season.
Curiously enough indoor baseball is the
fayorite winter sport in the western sec
tions only, blooming especially in Chicago
and Cleveland.
Worcester won't be in the Eastern
League next season. Toronto will con-
tinue under first-class auspices with Ar
thur Irwin as manager.
Jack Rothfus, the excellent first base
man Of the Newark club, will remain
there another season and not go to Grand
Rapids, as was reported.
President Kerr of the Pittsburg team
has settled one question and that Is that
Harry Davis will cover the initial bag for
his team next season. Harry will go to
Hot Springs with the Spiders for the pre-
liminary practice.
Now that the Eastern League has voted
to dispense with the farm, Providence
cannot bank on either Dolan or Lewis
next season, unless these young men are
loaned for an entire season or sold out
right. 'sSilver' Braun, who was with
New Bedford last season, should make
good man for Providence.
Gagged From the Spot.
Bath beat Augusta II to 2, Saturday
night at Bath.
Pawtucket has scored 164 goals and lost
IA. The fact that the Whalers have lost
but 12S goals shows how strong the New
Bedford defence is. M
Young Russell is wonder. Hefhas
made as many goals as Roberts and has
not played the same length of time, as he
has been generally taken off after the first
two periods.
McPeck scored the winning goal for the
Grays in the overtime period on Saturday
night, and the Providence Journal man is
i'm the clouds over McPeck's work. Menard
had better look out now.
There is no foundation in fact in the
rumor that Wodtke has quit the Fall
Rivers. He failed to show up at Fall
River Friday night, being confined to his
home in Waltham with severe cold.
The fight is fierce one in the Maine
league. The Rocklands still show in the
Wit hx. Do lan do Y m q Of
chase. Lewiston and Augusta are having
battle OF their own, while Bath is in the
rear.
In speaking OF the rough work OF the
Tigers at Fall River in Friday nights
game the Fall River Globe has the follow
ing; "Nerved to the point of desperation,
little Bone tackled first one Red man and
then another, and the referee commenced
to call fouls. Hobe Whiting took excep
tions. So did Bone, and the latter used
language that Referee Weihl classed as
indecent Jake took Bone by the collar
and shook the fight all out OF him." Bone
says he had the best end Of thei argument,
SO there you are.
