IAJ0lE A WONDER

The San Francisco correspondent or the
81 Louis Sporting News pays the follow
ing compliment TO Napoleon Lajoie, the
Woonsocket, II. T., boy;
This team OF Ali-Americans. headed by
the peerless Lajoie. is without doubt tho
finest bunch OF artists ever seen on this
coast. They are ball players In every
sense OF the word. every last one OF them,
and II is a pleasure TO see them working
out difficult problems on the diamond
Their base running and throwing is a
revelation, but their batting has not as
yet startled tho Western baseball frater-
nifty. It is i'm the purloining Of bases
where they excel tho local players most.
for they take all kinds Of chances and al
WAYS keep their eyes on the ball--a point
which is not always observed by the mi
nor ieaguers.
Lajoie. 90 my mind, has reached n mark
OF perfection and stands today pre-emi-
nently the most finished ball player in
the land. No wonder a manager pays
$500 for his seasons services. The ease
with which he gets exceedingly difficult
chances has tendency 10 detract from
his wonderful pickups and throws but
nevertheless, his marvellous work is at all
times discernible. Although a biS man, he
IS fleet Of foot and gets over the ground
like a deer. At the bat he has not yet
shone as an Illuminating star, but IL is
plainly visible that he represents all that
has been said about him and the two
pitchers of the Frisco team deserve
much credit for their ability in not allow
ing him 20 get single safe connection In
the first two games.
