Weyhing will try to turn the trick for the
Senators today. sJasi-
The Senators,dost the first game by poor
hitting, the second by poor fielding and
the third by poor pitching.
Where are the scrbes who picked out
President Young's staff of umpires several
weeks ago with much confidence and
precision? Not one was right. and Uncle
Nick surprised everybody with the staff
that officiated the opening day.
Those wise critics who intimated that
Billy Dahien would not do at third for the
Brooklyns are entitled to another guess.
Thirteen chances Saturday without slip
up and eight yesterday without an error is
his record SO far, while his work with the
bat and the bases has been equally as
good as that of Collins, the reputed best
third baseman in the league.
Hulen got into the hitting yesterday for
two good singles
Washington has a team of fast fielders
and good runners, but their batting here
was not impressive Philadelphia Press.

CURRENT SPORTING NOTES
Record of the Climbs.

Not bit discouraged and still hopeful
of better results the Washington club ar
rived home from Philadelphia last even
ticing at the usual hour this morning. Man
ager Irwin, when spoken to by The Star re-
porter, said he was perfectly satisfied with
the first two games in Philadelphia, but
that yesterdays game was simply a case of
better ball by the Quakers.
In Friday and Saturdays games the
Senators were equally as good as the Phil
lies at every stage of the going" said Man.
ager Irwin, "and as it happened at the
critical points the Quakers had things break
their way. 1 have not changed my opinion
about the members of the Washington club
They are all ball players. and the club will
win many more games than the team that
represented this city last year."
J. Earl Wagner and his corps of assist
ants were busy as bees this morning put
ting everything to rights at the park and
getting ready for the parade and opening
game Of the season. The players benches
with their coverings were only completed
this morning, and the private boxes put in
order.
The team left the park at o'clock in car
riages, preceded by bus carrying the
House, where the Philadelphia club is stay
ing, and the latter Joined the procession for
a short drive. Both teams then went to the
grounds, where after short rest they will
go on the diamond for the usual practice
before the game starts at 4:30. While the
teams were down town their photographs
were taken.
