DEMAND FOR SEASONED PLAYERS.
Minor Leagues Of the Country Are
Full Of Old Timers.

Old blood-the retired and played-out
warriors Of the big league-is now as
much a feature of the minor leagues as
young blood used to be of the greater
organization says the Buffalo En1ulr-
er. In bygone days 1t was the ambition
OF the National league to pick up the
fine young players of the minor leagues
20 develop them and every little club
has it's wonder who would surely pe
drafted by the big fellows in the fan.
Nov it's the other way--the talk in
the little leagues is ever of getting OLD,
experienced, reliable players who nave
outllvod their usefulness in the fastest
company. A glance over the scores or
even so inconsiderable an organization
as the Western association proves this
conclusively.
Six of these small clubs did battle
yesterday. Among the members of the
half dozen might have been noticed
these: With st. Joseph the veteran
Klusman, who has knocked around the
land for many q year, and kinlock, VINO
was tried and dropped by Won der
Abe. With Cedar Rapids, playing first,
is Hutchinson, who once essayed second
for Uncle Anson way back in 1890, and
Donnelly, who pitched for the colts
with much success in 1894. With Quin-
cy is Traftiey, who has been catching
since 1878 or thereabouts; Mutton who
| was once counted as good National
| league possibility and Gutenberg, VINO
| covered first for Louisville some years
! ago. With Peoria is Pat Wright, who
WAS one of Anson's band in brotherhood
year. With Rockford is Newman, the
outdelder, who used to be much talked
about. Tony Esterquest, the old Chi
cagoan is on short for the same team;
| Killing, who tried to pitch in the big
league, plays first; Patsy Flaherty,whc
was a third baseman for Louisville
covers third; Joe Nisner, catcher for
the old Broklyns in 1SS9-is in the field
and Underwood a fairly successful
Brooklyn pitcher some years back, Is
twrling. The only man of note on the
Burlington team is Sammy Samuels
who used to stop all that didn't gel
by for Won der Ahe's browns.

HENRY BOYLE, THE MAROON.
Washington Player Discusses One OF
the OId-Time Cracks.

II was reading about Henry Boyle,
the pitcher of the old Indianapolis Ma
rooms, who lost more games for 4 star
than any pitcher the game has ever
seen," remarked Roger Bresnehan, the
newest twirling find OF the Senators.
Boyle, you know, started out as a first
baseman, and II was only by accident
that he developed into a pitcher. When
Billy Taylor deserted the Maroons,
Boyle went in to pitch just by way of
an eXperiment,as he had a strong wing,
and used to toss a good many curves
to the players in practice.

team at Bryan, Ohio, two years ago

CRICKET AT PHILADELPHIA.
Captain Warmers British Amateurs
and Philadelphia Colts Played.

Philadelphia, Sept. 1.-THE cricket
match between Captain Warmers team
of British amateurs and a team of
twenty-five "colts," selected from the
Junior membership of the various Phila-
delphia cricket clubs, was begun at
noon today. Robert S. Newhall, the
veteran player acted as captain for the
colts, The weather was clear and cool
and during the latter portion of the
afternoon there was an attendance of
about one thousand.
The Philadelphians won the toss and
chose to go to the bat first. While the
youngsters as a rule fell easy prey to
the high class bowling of the English
men, seven of them succeeded in get
ting double figures, as did also Captain
Newhall. The full team was retired
for 13 runs. The Britishers then went
to bat and when stumps were drawn
for the day, they had scored Al, with
loss of two wickets

warrant for Green's arrest. The
Alderman laughed at the charge as
to obsurd for consideration. This so
angured Porch that he gave the official
a hot expression of his opinion OF such
justice, Porch was unceremoniusly
hustled out of the office.
Then he caused the arrest of the
Justice on the charge of assault, but
the case was dismissed. Green was
then taken before Justice Barrett, at

DEATH OF JOHN KELLER
He Tried to Throw Judge Morrow
Under n Train.

Trenton, N. j., Sept. 17.-John Kel-
Ter. an inmate of the New Jersey state
prison, died at that institution today.

to the Judge and Judge Morrow in
creased the sentence to five years.

PATCHEN AND POINTER.
The Two Great PAGERS Delight a
Multitude With Even Hopors,

Indianapolis, Sept. 17.-Joe Patchen,
for the first time since the Columbus
meeting in July showed Pointer his
dust today. The wonderful black stall
lion captured the second heat in the
battle between the two pacing kings.
He had the pole, the place being won
by the flip Of a coin, and from the
word he cut the route and was not
needed. Pointer won the first heat in
comparatively easy form in 204%. Nc
Cleary was driving in fine style, and
lie counted on the second heat being
taken with equal ease. Patchen had
faltered some in the first argument.
An experiment had been tried in his
shoeins. For the first time in weeks
delay was caused in getting the word,
cue to his breaking. His rounding in
form was superb and the crowd Of 45,-
900 people was immensely pleased at
mis- swiftness. The second heat will
be run tomorrow.
