The National league teams will re-
port about March /, or soon thereafter,
in order TO get in shape for the cham
pionship season of 1898. The cham
pionship season will open April Is, and
up to that time the players will be busy
getting into shape. The Washington,
Louisville and st. Louis clubs will have
to get into shape on their home grounds
this year. The New York and Brooklyn
clubs will get into shape on the Lake
wood grounds in New Jersey, which is
about the same as staying at home.
The Philadelphias will also practically
stay at home, as they are going to the
nearby resort of Cape May. The Cleve-
lands and Pittsburgs will get into con-
dition at Hot Springs. Ark, the Cincin-
natis at San Antonio. Texas, the Chi
Cages at Waycross, Georgia, the Balti-
mores at Macon. Georgia, and the Bos-
tons at Greensboro. North Carolina.

THEY'RE ON THEIR MUSCLE
Morgan and Rumble Matched for
a Cornish Wrestle.
OLD BASEBALL PLAYERS
Some of the Favorites Who Figured in
the Montana League Of 1892 Are
Now High Up in the
Profession.

There is a wrestling match on the
taps which bids fair TO eclipse any
thing in the line of Cornish wrestling
ever seen in Butte. The contestants
are TO be Morgan and Rumble, the ac-
knowledged champions in the Cornish
style of wrestling. Morgan is backed
by Larry Gleason and Rumble is backed
by Jimmy Tickle. The time and place
for the match is not yet settled, but It
is hoped TO have the match come Off
early in March. There is some diff
Guilty in regard to place inaSmuch as
Maguire's opera house is engaged Tor
month after March and the match
will either have to come off before that
date or take place in some other hall.
1t is desired to have the match come Off
in Maguire's, but if that is not possible
some other place will be selected. The
match is a sure go, for $500 a side is
already NJ on it.
A correspondent of the Sporting Life
from Butte gives some interesting in
formation in regard to some of the
players who used to make crowds
enthusiastic in the old Montana league
of 1892. The best product of that league
by all odds was Clark Griffith, who is
now the crack pitcher of the Chicago
club, and is excelled by not more than
two or three pitchers in the National
league. Griffith is constantly improy-
ing, and is in his prime. 1t Is probable
that this year will be his best year on
the diamond. Griffith was pitcher for
the Missoula team of 1892, and first
made baseball reputation at that
time.
Hughes, lately signed by Baltimore,
also formerly pitched for Missoula. but
that was several years after Clark
Griffiths day. Hughes pitched in 1896
and did not cut much of q figure, to tell
the truth, with the Missoula people. He
must have greatly improved in regu-
larity, and so far as speed is concerned
he was always all right There were
few who could beat him.
George Speer of the Montana league
of 1892, is now with Milwaukee; George
Cross is with Indianapolis; Arthur
Twineham is with Louisville. Ed Cart
wright is With Kansas City, and Jud
Smith Is with the Syracuse Stars of the
International league. Smith has host
of friends in Butte, who watch his rec
ling of Butte in 1892 James Powell, the
old first baseman of the Buttes, is now
living on a ranch which he has pur-
chased in Missoula county. William
Colgan, once of the Butte and Missoula
teams, and formerly of Pittsburg ant
| St. Louis, was killed a few years age
| at Great Falls while switching cars
He was formerly of the battery of Sui
| Ivan and Col"an.
