Headed by the veteran Ewing, CONES the
venerable McPhee, then Mute Hoy, Vaughn,
Schriver, PeitZ, Beckley. Rhiues, EhFet,
Miller, Irwin, Corcoran, and the find
'97, little Ritchey. An aggregation that
cannot help but draw.
The Reds will play here today. Tuesday,
and Wednesday. Last year Ewing's IN IN
came to Washington with streamers fly
ing, and high hope OF landing within the
Temple Cup money. But sorrow and
defeat marked their stay. They were
walloped in Lice order. AS the Senator'S

hope that they viii duplicate the Ter
fonance, and they will turn out to cheer
the new blood on to victory.

Bresnahan, the young pitcher, Will prob

Is now budding into the game, and there
is NO better place in the country to make
their debut than Washington. There was
a time wheE the youngsters who came into

as that sort of thing did not help the team
along, it is believed, it has been discoI-

the boy. Arlie Latham was about the
worst that ever happened when 1t came
to soaring a new pitcher. Arlie would
stand in the attitude of monkey begging
peanuts, wave his bat, dance up and down
and make funny speeches. The pitcher,
worried, perplexed. uncertain, as to
what would come next, would send
ball over at a slow and halting
pace. With @ joyous shrek, Arlie would
swat it. If it went safe it was all over
with that pitcher, for the next batsman
would kill it, and so on until he was
driven from the box. If it was caught
the youngster would probably settle down
