The MCGUIRE McGann deal was the talk
of the fans last night. The trade is re-
garded as beneficial to both clubs. Nc
Gam will greatly strengthen Washington's
infield, and his stick work will improve the
batting average of the club
McGuire's name will seem out of place
in the Brooklyn clubs batting order He
has served the Washington club long and
faithfully and he has the best wishes of
every fan who ever witnessed his work
The Senators have at last secured left
handed pitcher, a commodity for which
Manager Irwin has been seeking for some
time If he is as good as he is said to
be the Senatorial twirling staff will be as
strong as any in the League.
Jennings makes numerous errors as
shortstop, but his value to a ball club
cannot be reckoned by his batting or
fielding average. Since his return 10 his
old position the Superbas have won big
majority of their games.
Miller is the only player of the Reds
who seems to take an interest in his work
or is at all lively on the coaching lines.
Selbach occasionally poses back of third
or first base, but the rest of the players
are like SO many sticks of wood
Another fishing expedition will be in
order for Jack Taylor unless he shows bet
ter form than he displayed Wednesday.
He is now in better condition than when
he was suspended, but there Is still room
for improvement.
California Hughes is getting knocked out
of the box with regularity that has te-
come monotonous to both him and Manager
Hanlon. Dunn is now the mainstay OF the
Superbas on the slab.
Deckers performance Wednesday should
not be taken as fair sample of his ability
to play first base. He is undoubtedly a
first-class fielder, but his recent sick spell
had left him in weakened condition. He
was no longer needed after the MCGUIRE
McGann deal was made, and consequently
was released
Atherton is one of the most uncertain
batters in the League He will strike out
two or three times in succession, and then
will make as many safe hits.
One of the latest schemes in ball playing
was disclosed by the Cincinnati team
Wednesday. The plan is unique in its ap-
plication, but questionable in character.
Two or three of the players are supplied
with short pieces OF files and at the op
perfume moment when their opponents are
at the bat a player who is manipulating
the file gets the ball and gives 1t several
vigorous raps. This roughs up the surface
and hard hit viii result only in a pop
fly or an easy liner. When the Reds go
to the bat the first man up tries to foul
the ball out of the grounds. 1t is great
scheme and no doubt has been worked on
many team this season, but Ewing's club
does not seem TO have profited much by it.
It is suggested to the magician of the
team that he abandon this idea and get up
something more practical.

Why He Was Nervous.

The merchant uttered a sharp ex.
clamation and sank back into his
chair. A telegram fell from his shak-
Ing hand. His eyes were wide, his
face white and beads of perspiration
stood on his brow. The men in the
outer office whispered among them
selves.
Touch OF heart d!sease?" asked
one.
No; the old man can't take up a
note,' said another. We fellows will
have to be looking for another place"
Get to work-he's coming up
again"
The merchant wiped his brow,
fetched despairing sigh, picked up
the paper from the floor, frowned and
stamped his foot as if to summon all
his resolution, placed the telegram on
his desk and forced himself to read
the bitter message This was it:
Dearest James-Please send the
waist for my gros grain suit at once.
You will remember the one, as it has
revers on the fromage and chain
stitched bases on the back. It is in
the lower trunk in the cupboard be-
side the back room, under your winter
overcoat. If not there 1t must be in
the sealed box on the third shelf in
the front room cupboard If you don't
find 1t there it must be somewhere
else. The trunk keys are in the sec
ond wardrobe drawer unless they

was such a man once, and he was
called reaper. He cut the grain be-
fore and after Boaz, for thousands of

is used now it applies not to a man,
but to machine. So the word printer
will be applied some day And then,

ancient calling and one that retained
Its original features from antiquity till

Docking Horses.

Docking horses took it's rise in the
dark days when bull and bear batting
were honored by place in the cate
CORY Of sport rightly now relegated by
law to the catalogue of outrage. This
custom of docking was once generally
applied to English roadsters hunters
and harness horses. The only useful
purpose 1t ever served was in the Pen
insula war when English dragons
could be most easily distinguished
from French by their cocktails. 1t fell
into disuse with the decline of road
coaches, and We owe its unwelcome
revival to their partial disfguring; it
inflicts needless suffering upon brood
mares and horses turned out to grass,
depriving them of their natural de-
Tense against flies besides the severe
pain and shock caused by the opera
tion itself. 1t should be discouraged
In every possible way by influential
persons by those who lead the fash
ion in such things, and agricultural
societies should be moved to refuse
prizes to exhibits which have under
gone this mutilation.
