DIAMOND DUST.

J. W. Wagner's saloon, at 7 East
Fourth street, is the pl ace to hear all the

and prize fighting all look alike to him.
| Stop in.
Johnny Newell had a good day on
Tuesday as he made one run and two
hits. Johnny is now a fielder.
| Spratt who was a favorite while in this
city had one hit to his credit on Tues
day. 1t is very seldom that he gets less
than two or three hits to game.
Pete Cassidy failed to get hit on
Tuesday but had three putouts and four
assists.
Mcintyre who formerly played on the
Wilmington is playing .irst bag for
Allentown. On Tuesday he had one run,
two hits and twelve putouts to his ac-
count.
Manager Denny Long, of the Reading
club, says he won't give up Sunday ball
withouta fight.
Them ex-Phillies are certainly warm
babies; now, you Quaker knockers, get
together.
Jerry Nops won another game, allow
ing Louisville only six hits.
Chicago didn't do thing to Joyce's
children.
Rube Willis held the Cincinnati down
to six hits. That is pretty good.
Manager Richie says Robinson and
Coombs will play with his Cape May
team, while Manager Abbott claims both
for his All-Scholastic nine, SO there you
are.
Players frequently take slumps in
their batting, but it is rare that an entire
team slumps at the same time 1t is
hard to account for the present slump
in the Philies.

ilton, was practically driven out of
Philadelphia, is on some other team, the
knockers" are beginning to appreciate
his worth as a player.
The Browns are considering the re-
lease of Tommie Dowd. Tuck Turner and
Dusty Hall.
Big Dan Brouthers, after twenty years
in the harness, has been released by
Springfield. Too much money to pay is
the ,eason given, but it is likely the old
first baseman has reached the fork in the
road that leads not to the ball ground.
1t is claimed that Flick lost game
for Philadelphia last week by trying to
make grand stand play and general
posing. If he is going to make 'em
forget Thompson, that is not the way.
A Western paper prints the story that
Jack Doyle and Timmy Donohue will
lay off next winter-that's funny, laying
off in the busy season-and go over to
free Ireland. Now there are some few
times that Ireland has been mentioned
of late. Where and what is this Ireland,
What's the use of freeing it and
what's the finish in case it is freed?
These Western papers do like to take up
new and startling subjects at inopportune
times. Why not wait till we have for

Chicago, Washington and Philadelphia
are all after Bert Myers, the third base
man who refused to 60 with Milwaukee,
and who has warmed the Washington |

offers $1,000 and the loan Of Abbattichio.
