BASEBALL NOTES.

The Blues are playing in Emporia to-
day.
Roy Evans is again pitching for EN-
poria and doing good work. Saturday
he struck out ten men at Abilene.
Harry Mote, last years manager of
the Topeka team is being sued for a
divorce by his wife.
The next ball team to appear in To-
peka will probably be Horton, COM
ing Thursday for three games.
In a recent gme with the Phillies,
Long, Boston's great shortstop, accept
ed thirteen chances without an error.
No pitcher in the Western league has
been more of a disappointment than
Barrett of Kansas City. His work has
been anything but brilliant
The ball that Irwin drove over the
fence, winning game from Cleveland
was fncased in gold leaf and presented
to him in a basket of flowers by Gin
cinnati fans
In 1890 DahIen, now of the Chicagos,
and Joe Kelley, the Baltimore KicIite
offered to play for SIS and $50 a MONTH
respectively, for Washington. Earl
Wagner refused to take them in.
Grandpa Anson's team is playing a
fast game now and the Colts are sure
they will finish as good as fourth. An
the club retains its present position.
Cooley has caught on at Philadelphia
and is already a prime favorite with
the enthusiasts of that city. Dick
saved the Quakers from a shut-out in
Boston Saturday by a home run drive
in the first inning.
The clash between Hughey Duffy
and Manager Frank SeIee of the Bos-
ton team may be responsible for the
in-and-out work of the Beaneaters. 1t
is said that Selee wants to remove
Duffy and put Herman Long in charge
of the players on the field.
Schriver leads all Western league
catchers, having an average of $50
The nearest one to him in the league
is Twineham of Detroit. who has an
average of .94S, but who has caught in
fewer games. Schriver is ahead of all
other catchers in the matter of catch
ing base runners.
