IS A GREAT BASE BALL TOWN

Webster Aug. 9.-Undoubtedly the
greatest semi-professional base ball
nine in the state, wears the name of
Webster on their uniforms this year.
The town is worked to a fever pitch
over the success of its team, and the
people turn out en- masse every Satur-
Gay. The attendance at the games is
anywhere from 1900 to 1900.
Last Saturday, on the Charlton street
grounds, Southbridge, the Southbridge-
East Douglas combination, comprising
Manager Cheney of Southbridge, Man
ager Young Of East Douglas, Players
Nelson, Wilder and Mellor of the East
Douglas team, LAWN of Fordham col

verhill and Newburyport teams of the
New England league, and was a very
lively player.
DR.. Thomas B. McQuaid who was q
successful pitcher at Holy Cross col
lege, had many offers to play profess
sionally after he had finished his
course at the college, but studied for
the calling which he now fills, that of
a successful M. D. in Maiden.
James Newman also had many offers
to play professionally, at big money.
but declined preferring to remain at
home.
Representative Joseph P. Love. ex-
Senator Charles Haggerty, Selectman
and Deputy Sheriff Maurice P. Glare
of the famous old Clippers, were as
good as any of them in their day.
To Captain John Stafford, who has a
wide acquaintance with ball players in
general, Manager John H. Conway. and
the board of directors, Thomas H. He'd
erman and William Hobart, and the
association, who comprise the liberal
business men of the town, credit is due
for securing such galaxy of stars to
represent Webster this year.

ting on the mask and protector TO eaten
when the catcher showed up.
While with New York, in 1898, IN
game against Cleveland, he scored
run from second base on hit to the
pitcher, clearly felded by Cuppy 10
Ewing to thinner, sliding in at the
plate the same time that the runner
arrived from third, being cut on the
face by the runners spikes, ana was
forced to lay off for few days on ac-
count of the injury. His feat is enron
icIed in the Clipper Annual.
One of the best pieces of work TINS
year was in a game against Pittsburg.
With Duffy on third and F'risbee at the
bat, with two strikes and one ball
called, Tannehill pitching, and a run
needed very badly by Boston, DUFFY
substituted Stafford for Frisbee, ana
the first ball pitched up he smashed 10
center for single, sending DulIy
across the plate with what proved to be
the winning run.
During Hamilton's lay-off on account
of an injury to his leg, Jim covered his
position in fine style, and his good play
ing and timely batting has helped Bos-
ton to win many games.
He has the fine fielding average of
$3.50 for 80 games in five different posi-
tons, namely, center field, left field,
right field, short stop, second base; and
batting average of .229, and leads the
team in sacrifice hitting, having II to
his credit.
John H. Stafford, Jims brother, will
be remembered by many as a crack-a-
jack pitcher in his day, having pitched
for the Worcesters atlantic league),
Holy Cross college, Woonsocket, Provi-
dence, Cleveland National league,
Grand Rapids CWestern association,
Lewiston New England league), his
catcher in Lewiston being Martin Ber-
gen, now of the Bostons, considered the
finest catcher that ever stood behind
the plate.
John threw his arm out in Lewiston
three years ago, and had to give up
pitching. Since then he has played the
field with the local team, and is fine
outfielder and batter, although a trifie
weak on throwing. He has had several
offers to play professionally this year,
but declined them all, preferring to re-
main with Webster.
jerry Turbidy, famous years ago as
a shortstop, is now in business here.
Jerry played with the Crickets of Bing-
hampton, N. Y, Haymakers of Troy,
N. Y, the old Rhode Islands, Holyokes,

Bay City, Mich, and Kansas City. He
was noted run-getter and base run
ner, stealing on such fine catchers as
Bushong and Bennett Many times he
has gone home from third while the
pitcher held the ball, reaching the
plate safely. He has record of II 3-5
seconds in circling the bases. In a
match race he and Tom Brown, now
of the Springfelds, made the same
time.
At Nick Engers famous sporting
house in New York at Twenty sixth
street and Broadway, may be seen
group picture of the old Rhode Islands
comprising Turbidy, Roger Connor,
Buck Ewing, Mickey Welch, Arle La
than, Gillespie and other stars.
Michael Sullivan, who played with
Worcester, Hartford, Athletics of Phil
adelphia and Buffalo, in in and out
field positions, was heavy hitter and
fine fielder.
In game between Webster and
Millbury, for $50 a side, in 'S3, played
on the Worcester agricultural grounds,
Sullivan secured five hits with a total
of is bases, Webster winning easily.
Frank Gilmore, pitcher, played with
Hartford, and was sold by Hartford
to the Washington league team along
with Connie Mack. Gilmore and Mack
were known all through the circuit as
the famous bone battery Gilmore.
while with Washington, under the
management of Umpire John H. Gaff-
ney shut the New Yorks out in a game
without a run or a hit. The New Yorks
were the real Giants then, not the Pig
mics like today. He had good success
for several years. and then retired.
Henry Porter pitched many years for
Bay City, Mich, Brooklyn and Kansas
City American association teams, and
was good one. He had fine curves,
and the strike-outs were generally big
when ne was in the box.

OPPONENTS.
BATTING.

1t will be seen at a glance that Web
ster's team work is superior to that of
their opponents in every respect ex-
cept fielding, their opponents leading
them by ~ points.
The cranks are anxiously waiting for
the game with the Worcester Eastern
League team, many believing that
Webster will win, or at least make
them hustle to hold their laurels.
Later a game with the Springfield
team will be played, and the chances
are favorable that the Boston National
League team will be seen on the home
grounds before the season ends.
The team of this year brings to mind
the famous old Clippers and also the
Websters of 1884 and 'S7.
Many people think this years team
superior to the ones of 1874 and 'ST, but
to the fair-minded it would be about
an even thing
The only paid players on the 'S3
team was the battery, and the catcher
the only our-of-town player, the 9TH
ers being local men.
The team comprised H Porter D.,
Dave Coreoran c.. Newman 1b., Duval
3D., Emerson 3D., Turbidy S., Sullivan
IT,, Wright CT, A. Porter rf., Frank Gill
more substitute
Everything went along smoothly
with the nine until National League
managers began signing the players.
II. Porter was the first to go, Joining
the Cleveland team, but shortly after
ward was transferred to Bay City,
Mich.
Webster then secured Hagen of Ions
dale r. L., to fill Porters position. In
his first game. against the Crescents of
Lynn, he struck out the first Is batters
up. Corcoran's hands were so puffed
up he could hardly get the ball down
to second, catching the entire game
without glove, the big mitt used
nowadays being unknown then.
Hagen had only pitched a few games
when Manager Wright came along and
signed him for the Philadelphia Ma
tional League team. Corcoran then
Joined the Philadelphia Athletics of the
American Association. That settled the
game in town that year. and the team
was disbanded.
Since then, with the exception Of the
c. T. A. nine of 81, who had Donahue in
the box. now winning pitcher with the
Philadelphias, and other first-class
men, there has been no nine of much inn
portance until last year, but this year s
team is the best In all respects the town
has had in II or Is years
Webster probably has had, at differ
ent times. more representatives in the
various leagues than any town of its
size in the country.
Its only player in the National League
now is James j. Stafford. Boston's ia
nous utility man. considered by many
the best all-ronnd player in the bust
ness.
Stafford commenced his career on the
diamond 13 years ago, Joining Hartford,
and has playing in Springfield, Wor-
oester Buffalo, Players league, Los
Angeles. Cal, Lincoln, Neb, Augusta,

after a week or so, saying he was not
IN the game for his health, claiming
the players were not paid, may finish
out the season here. He led the team
in batting and base running, and is a
valuable man.
Frank Shea, the third bag guardian,
is the idol of the cranks, and has put
up wonderful fielding and batting
game. He has taken part in all of the
games played.
Captain John Stafford is the same old
reliable player he always was. He has
made many sensational catches, a one
handed catch in Southbridge being
particularly noteworthy.
John H. Putnam, Familiarity known
as old Put" the right field guardian
noted for his heavy hitting qualities,
who has propensity for knocking the
ball out of sight and into the lake for
nome runs, has a batting average of
AIS, with the wonderful total of 500.
Carney, who was secured for his

has received very fiattering offers from
