BIG GEORGE MAHONEY.
As He Is Seen by Chicago Base
ball Man.


Cusick, who writes the baseball matter
for the Chicago Daily News, saw George
Mahoney with the Bostons the other day.
and this is what the Windy City scribe has
&c say:
Mr.. Mahoney, the largest man seen in the
League FOR many moons. made his debut in
professional ball at the West Side grounds
yesterday. He now wishes that he had tar
ried at his Georgetown school TIE Tecep-
tion given Mr.. Mahoney was one Of the
warmest ever seen around these districts
since the year l, and the people who saw
the sport are still laughing.
Mr. Mahoney is feet 3 or more, and one
of Notwithstanding menimaginable Small
girls, who admire big men, could be heard
squeaking, Isn't he cute?" all over the
stand. He hasbcenloafiGg around the park
during the present series. doing nothing but
takelifecasy, and the multitude were really
getting inquisitive as to who he was and
what right he had to live.
He went into the fray at rather in
auspicious time The Colts had just de-
moIished lie wis and had biffed fat Stivetts
in the solar pleXus, When Mr.. Mahoney's
giant frame loomed up there was a shout
OF lduSHbtI. tIth d pause VI ultdtl ItSO Tic
monster should prove strong and speedy
in proportion to his fearful size.
He threw bail; Dahlen hit it He threw
another Lange hitit. He threw one more;
Thornton hitit And the picnic might have
gone on indefinitely had not the long man
climbed eleven feet higher and pulled down
bounding ball.
The fate of Mr.. Mahoney is no new ex-
perience for young pitcher. Many man
who has afterward been a star has been
a horrible fizzle on his first appearance,
while many man who has panned out no
good on earth has made glorious debut.
Thornton was a conspicuous success On
his initial day, and he has been nothing
in the way Of box work since. Griffith
did not do very well the first time he
pitched for Anson, and he is the best Of
all nowadays. Mr.. Mahoney, If given
fair show, may yet become Rusie.

PILGRIMS TO MONTICELLO
A Party of congressman Visit Jefer-
sons Historic Homestead.
Senator HOar Arranged the Trip,
Friends Also at the Shrine.

ACtuated by patriotic desire TO see the
home of the Trainer OF the Constitution,
large party Of Senators and Representatives
left the city over the Southern Railroad at
7:1O O'Clock this morning bound for Monti-
cello. They will return this evening
The party numbered fifty-nine, Of whom
the larger part were Senators Senator
Hoar, who is managing the trip; Speaker
Reed and the clerks OF both the House and
Senate were conspicuous members.
According to the program, the train,
which was a special, consisting of three
Pullman palace cars, was to reach Char
IottesviIle at o O'Clock. The party were
then tC take carriages, which had been
previously ordered, for Monticello, about an
hours ride distant Mr.. jefferson Levy,
the present owner Of the estate, had
arranged to meet the party at the man
sion and show them the various points OF
interest on the place. 1t was thought by
those who arranged the trip that two
hours could be spent most pleasantly in
this way.
The party will probably return To the
station in time to take dinner ut the rail-
road restaurant, and will them return
home at O'Clock this evening. II time
and the opportunity permit the party Will
make q tour through the University OF
Virginia before taking the train for Wash
ingtOn-
This trip has been arranged throughout
by Senator HOar. About week ago the
senior Senator from Massachusetts, men,
toned in one of the committee rooms,
apropOs of the recent JefferSonian cele-
bration, that he had never visited the
homestead Of the great Democratic father,
and expressed the desire to do so. Several
fellow-Senators thereupon admitted that
they, too, would like to go, and Senator
HOar was asked to make up party. He
found, to his surprise, that large ma
1Ority of the Senators had never been to
Monticello. and so the arranging Of the
trip was a comparatively easy matter
Another special train containing Mrs.
Phoebe Hearst snd party of fifteen ladies
from Boston and San Francisco, who are
her guests, started over the Southern Rail-
road at 11:15 this morning also for
Monticello This trip is under the supers
vision of Mr. Joseph G. Howe, Mrs. Hearst'I
secretary The ladies will also remain in
Monticello all day, leaving ON the same
special train tonight for Ashville, N. O.,
Here they will remain until Monday morn
ing, when they will return to this city.
The visit of these two parties to MOnti-
cello on the same day is merely a COIN
cidence and was not pTearranged.

FOUR PITCHERS IN THE BOX
Ii Took That Many 10 Win the
Game From Chicago.
BASE HITS WERE PLENTIFUL
Both Teams Took Hand In the
Batting Matinee, But Uncle Ansnn
Aided the Senators to Land the
Contest by His Poor Throwing.
Notes of the National Game.

Notwithstanding the comedy Of errors
resulting from the first meeting OF the
washingtons and Chicagos in the Windy
City yesterday, the victory for the Sena-
as tie oasis in the desert is TO the Arab.
That the Schmelzites came out ahead IS
enough to satisfy their admirers.
From. the way the two teams hammered
the Spalding, making thirty-three hits
between them, those in attendance nust
nave thought they were attending a re-
hearSal for a Fourth of July pyTotechnlc
display Briggs started i'll to pitch for The
Colts, and Aus0n made him stay through
the full performance and take hismedcine,
which was sixteen safe drives, but it
took four twirlers to land the game for the
Statesmen.
King was the first Senatorial pitcher
to face the Colts, but the Chicago sluggers
had silver" in an airship 10y the end of
the second Manager SchmelZ then sent
German to the rubber. Lester developed
the same propensity for going up in the
air, and SO Norton was sent to the rescue,
only TO share the same tate S his prede-
cessors DIR. McJames was the only Wash
Ington box artist who made any kind of a
showing 1t is probably well, however,
that he was only called upon to pitch one
inning, as everybody seemed to have their
lamps trimmed and burning, and there Is
no telling Just what might have happened
had the Colts had time TO size him up.
THE Runaway Colt" Uncle Anson, was
the Senators most able assistant in win
ming the game. The old veteran was way
off in his throwing Wrigley. Demon
treville and Selbach were especially ef-
fective with the ash, each making three
hits.
1t might be said in passing that the more
that is seen OF Wngley's playing, the better
il is liked He always seems to improve,
and it is a question / n the minds OF many
as TO whether il would not be wise move
to find a regular berth for him on the team
The Senators aud Colts lay off this after
noon, playing tomorrow and Sunday. The
rest will give the twirlers a chance to get
in condition again, and thus increase the
formers chances Of winning.
1t will probably be a long time before
Washington figures in such an exhibition
of tie national game as that OF yesterday,
but as long as they get the best end of IL
the Capital City fans have no kick coming.
