II was nearly midnight last night when
both the Washington and Boston CLUBS
reached this city, the Senators coming over
from Chester, while the Beaneaters finished
up the long ride from Chicago. The local
players Immediately scattered for their
homes while the Bostons put up at the
Riggs House. When seen this morning,
Manager Manning was feeling quite elated
over the showing the Senators had made on
the trip but he had no news to give.
"I expected to pick up one or more new
players on the western trip, but all my
deals fell through" said Mr.. Manning.
1--WE ran into several rains, which knocked
down our receipts considerably, but as II
didn't interfere with my clubs playing l
have no kick coming. Our eight victories
out Of the fourteen games played, were OF
the clean-cut variety. and with little luck
we would have won three more.
"I have been in correspondence with
Catcher Luskey of the New England League
for some time past, and had quite talk
with him this morning. He impressed me
favorably and he will be in uniform this
afternoon. I may put him In the outfield
this afternoon, but / would like to nave
him get acquainted with the other members
of the team before trying him out. Lus-
keys work this season has been exception
ally good in the minor league. and as he is
a Washington boy I hope he will be able
to play up to the American League stand
ard"
Tim Murnane, the veteran newspaper
writer of the Boston Globe, Is with the
Bostons and believes there Is yet fine
chance for a splendid finish between the
two leading clubs. Secretary Gavin of the
Beaneaters told Star reporter this morn
ing that his club was in the best of shape.
but that the good stickers had lost their
batting eyes for the time being. Their
fielding Is as good as ever, but timely
hit in almost all the games at Chicago
would have materially changed matters in
regards to the victor. Last Sundays crowd
at Chicago was a record breaker and Mr..
Gavin said that he witnessed almost as
big crowd going away from the grounds
unable to gain admission as was inside
the fences.
In the game this afternoon between the
Senators and Bostons Cyrus Young will
probably be on the rubber for the visitors.
while Mercer may hand them up for the
home team. The local followers Of the Sen
ators are quite elated over the teams
splendid showing on the trip, which was
better than any other eastern club, and
the chances are lnat a hearty welcome
will be given the Washingtons when they
go on the field this afternoon.

LITERATURE AND LIFE.
A. j. n.



Rufus Rockwell is running in the
Bookman series Of sketches on Noted
Norwegians in America" In which we
get glimpse into the lives of two noted
writer's, Sienkiewiecz and Stevenson.
Both came to America before they had
won their spurs and both happened to
be in California about the same time,
tho unknown to each other, both bent on
an unique errand-the pursuit of q Wis
ion, an ideal, which was attained by
each in somewhat different fashion.
Sienkiewiecz, then 81 years Of age,
came as member Of Polish co-opera-
tive colony. settling in 1878 near Los An
geles in the Santa Ana valley. This So
ciety was composed Of some forty gifted
young writer's. actors and musicians OF
Poland, among them Count Bozenta
Chlapouski and his wife. Helen Nodes
ka. The colony spent 500, 600 on land,
buildings. fields and orchards. cattle and
sheep. But having no experience with
the soil and western methods Of irriga-
ton they were pursued by series Of
disasters which ended in failure, and
most Of the members returned to their
native land. The failure set Modjeska
to the study of English, followed soon
after by her debut in San Francisco.
While Sienkiewiecz. returning to Po-
land, wrote series Of skstches-impres-
sions Of America-for the Polish press,
which frst brought him to the notice Of
Evening times-Republican. [volume] (Marshalltown, Iowa) 1890-1923, 1901-12-03
