/ 1t is curious but nevertheless Il fact
that many of the great pitchers have
| been picked up in out-of-the-way towns
and obscure leagues in the United
| States. Wisconsin furnished Charlie
| Nichols of the Boston club and Pink
Hawley of the New York club, besides
many others Of less note, and who knows
but what young Heimerl, the southpaw
whom Ted Sullivan picked up for the
| Chicago club, will not develop into an
other Breitenstein. 1t was Ted who
picked up the famous Radbourne.

Atherton's hitting would be sorely missed
at the present time.
! Two new faces probably will be seen
! i'll Kansas City before many days have
| passed. Manager Jimmy Manning has
asked jim Hart to sell him two players
and it is likely the deal will be made
for Hart feels kindly inclined towards
| Manning and dOubly so since Phyle and

eel. Hart at once telegraphed Mana ger
Loftus in Philadelphia asking if he were
| willing to drop The two men in queS-
/ ton Though neither Manning or Hart
would divulge the names Of the players
wanted by the former. it leaked out that

A. r. f. Hillebrand, captain of this
years baseball team at Princeton uni
versity. has the enviable and probably
unexampled record of having been a
member of six champion athletic teams
during his university career. He I'M
doubtedly is the finest college pitcher i'll
the country and recently was offered Il
salary of $4,000 by the Boston club of
the National league to play for that
| team, but he refused.
Kid McCoy's friends are beginning to
| believe that Jim Corbett will box the
Kid after all before the death of the

state that Corbett is evidently preparing
| himself for hurry call to meet some
one of the big heavyweights before Sep
tember 1. Mccoy. in a statement, says
| he IS anxious to box COrbett. Mccoy
says: Il have not given up hope Of get
