Germany's National Air.

IL is remarkable how very few people
in this country, even musicians. know the
national song of Germany. There is "A
popular impression that IL Is die Wacht
am Rhein." Such Is not the ease, how
ever. says the Washington Star as was
learned one day by Professor Macleod.
leader OF the band of the District National
Guard, who applied 10 the German EN-
bassy for intorma ton onA that point. lie
thought IL was the Watch on the Rhine"
but wasn't sure. The National Guard
band was TO take part I'm the ceremonies
attending the welcome to Prince Henry
of Prussia, and IL WAS intended that his
Royal Highness should hear the national
song of the fatherland on that occasion.
In response 10 his inquiry the band lead
or was informed by a representative of
the German ambassador that the national
song of the German Empire is Hell dir
i'm Siegerkranz" the music OF which Is
precisely the same as that OF God Save
the Queen" the national song of Great
Britain, and America" or MY Country.
'Tis of Thee" one of the patriotic songs
OF the United States.
The same information Is contained i'm
National and Patriotic Airs OF All Ma
tions." a volume compiled by John Philip
Sousa when bandmaster OF the United
States Marine hand. which compilation is
accepted as the official guide of the navy
department and Is followed i'm all naval
functions In addition 10 the cases all
ready mentioned IL further appears from
Professor Sousa's compilation that the
well known music of God Save the
Queen" IL also the national air of Switzer-
land under the name Of "Rufst du mein
Vaterland' and the national song of Ba-
varia under the title Hell, unserm Ko-
mig, He'll"
Professor Sousa denominates "The
Star-Spangled Banner" Hail, Columbia"
and MY Country 'Tis of Thee" as pa
triotic songs of the United States, and
does not attempt TO name the national
song of the country. He shows, however.
that the practice of the navy is TO play
"The Star-Spangled Banner at morning
colors and Hail Columbia" at evening
colors on all ships in commission and ut

PROVIDENCE PLAYERS

AL Wagner, who played at short-stop
with the Providence club I'm the early
part Of last season. until he abandoned
playing and went 10 his home in Pitts
burg. has been signed TO play in the out
filed with the Grays this season. His
departure last year was the result of dis
satisfaction which arose at a time when
changes were being made In the makeup
OF the team, which affected other players
He has assured Manager Murray that
the old incident is closed, and that there
will be no repetition of II. His ability as
a hitter and base runner will make him
a very valuable man in the team. He will
complete the outfield as IL is intended
to play Friend and Conn alternately at
centre with Wagner on one side and
Bopst on the other.
A second catcher has been signed,
George w. Eaton OF Taunton. He was
signed 10 play with ST. Paul. in the West
ern league, but has secured his release
from that club and will play with Provi-
dence. He has played with independent
teams i'm and around Taunton, and Danny
Burke, who caught for Providence in 1891.
declares Eaton is one of the best young
catchers he ever saw play a game. He
is said 10 resemble Bergen in action and
is a good hitter and base runner.
Captain Connor has reported at Ade-
laide park. and Eugene Tamsey. who will
be given a trial as an inhelder, has also
reported. Bert Conn has been delayed i'm
reporting because his home i'm Philadel-
phia was destroyed by fire. and a few
days will be required to bring about
settlement.

Three Good Bouts at Warren--Provi-
dence Players Reporting Bowling,
Baseball and General Gossip.

Three vigorously contested boxing bouts
were given under the auspices OF the
Warren Athletic club last night before an
audience of several hundred followers or
the sport from this city, Pawtucket. Fall
River. Warren and Bristol. The first
was four-round contest In which Dave
Reindau OF Warren was TO have met
Patsy Carney OF Pawtucket. The latter.
having injured his hand. was unable TO
appear. and Jack Hannaway of the same
place was substituted. He made an am
bilious start which gave promise OF VIC
tory to the man who had entered at the
eleventh hour but Reindau made better
showing and earned the draw, which was
declared by Referee Abbott
The second event was a SiX-round bout
between Fred Campbell OF this city and
Jerry King of Fall River. Campbell show
ed up as a very clever boxer. and, as
King also displayed considerable skill In
handling himself, IL was a very pretty ex-
hibiton OF sparring. King, however.
forced the lighting and after the first two
or three rounds seemed To have SOM what
tired his opponent. In the first two
rounds King showed up rather weak and
did not make his blows tell. although ne
succeeded In frequently reaching the
Providence man. In the last round King
blows on the face and head which consid-
srably weakened the effect OF Campbells
attempted attack. although he used his
shoulder well In blocking. The decision
was awarded to King.
Interest was largely centred in the finaI
bout OF six rounds between Martin Reilly
OF Fall River and Peter Nayles OF this
city. Reilly proved the heavier hitter
and won. although Nayles made a gallant
uphill struggle
Reilly was not at his best last evening.
but he demonstrated his superiority i'm
blocking and had Nayles worn and weary
before the limit was reached.
