SPRING TRAINING IDEAS.
Manager Lotus Does Not Look With
Favor on Southern Trips.

Tom LOTUS who is to preside over the
interests Of the Washington club this sea-
son, has had enough experience in the
base ball line to make his opinions in re-
gard to the practical running of team
worth careful consideration. While Lotus
was in ST. Louis last week he had some
thing to say in regard to spring training
and the young players who will cut such
prominent figure in both leagues this sea-
son, says the Globe-Democrat
II am one of those" said LOTUS, "who
think that training in the south is injurious
to the players. Unless the weather should
happen to prove unusually raw and severe
during the first week. the softness for
which 1T Is claimed training in a warmer
climate is responsible does not show, and
In the former case it would be just as bad
for the men to train at home. The prin-
cipa1 objections that l have found to the
southern trips is in regard to the parks and
the opportunity 1t gives to the players to
have a good time and forget what they are
there for Most of the teams go to some
well-known resort. where there is much to
detract them from paying strict attention
to the business for which they came. The
diamonds in the south are. as rule Of the
Skin variety, and, as consequence, much
faster than those on which the teams play
during the regular season. AS a conse-
quence the change of speed throws them
off until they have had chance to get ac-
CustOmed to the home grounds But, leav-
ing out the two objections 1 have men,
tlOned. L tnlnk tnat southern trip Is
good thing.
"One of the principal things between a
youngster and old stager," continued
Tommy, lis in the likeliness of the former
to get discouraged and fail through lack
of confidence in himself. When an old
timer makes a bad play he lets it pass at
that, knowing that he will reinstate him
self into the good graces of the 'rooters'
later on by doing something In the circus
line. A youngster takes the matter more
to heart. and when the 'bleacherites' start
an anvil chorus he figures that it is all off
with him. Unless he steadies down and
dsregards the roasting the chances are
ten to one that he will miss the opportunity
for star play when 1T is presented to him.
Most of the youngsters get kindly recep
tion when they make their first appearance,
but after q few days the fans drop them
to the same level as the old ones and this
Is the crucial point If youngster Is lucky
enough to keep things coming his way for
time he gradually works up following
which will stick to him and excuse his
misplays, and after that he has a much
easier time. Many Of the players who have
failed to make good on the big league
teams would have been on the salary list
today had they had confidence in them
selves. but about the only way to acquire
this is on the ball field ITSELF

The Title Of Nicholas II.
from the Paris L'Evenement.


Although the majority of newspapers.
when speaking of Nicholas ii. call him the
"tsar," many Of our confreres designate
him yet under the name of "czar" Of
these two names, which is the correct one?
"Tsar.' undoubte edly; there can be no mis-
take about 1t. The national title of the
Russian sovereigns Is not, as 1t has been said
by some etymologist more ingenious than
educated. the corruption of the word
caesar. like the Germanic kaiser, for in
stance. The cause of this error Is that at
the beginning of the eighteenth century we
only knew the Russians through the Poles,
with whom We had international inter
course long before We got acquainted with
the Muscovites. The word ''czar" Is the
Polish form of the word ''tsar," with
slight difference of pronunciation which
distinguishes the two words derived from
the Slavonic language. We know that all
the Russians. like all the Slavs, belong to
the Greek Church. use the Cyrillic alpha
bet containing thirty-eight signs, still en-
plOyed in the sacred language. but reduced
to thirty-One in the common language. The
Catholic Slavs, like the Poles. having kept
the Latin alphabet OF twenty-four signs,
were compelled to resort to combinations of
double letters to take the place Of the ''sib-
liant, consenants which are found in the
Cyrillic alphabet The "cz" forms one OF
these combinations: hence the Polish or
typography which was adopted at first by
some fllustrious writer's like Voltaire- and
Saint Simon. The same rule applies to the
derivatives of the word tsar: tsarine,
tsarevna, tsarevitch. which some authors
persist In writing czarine, czarevna. czare-
witch These words are even spelled cesar
inc. cesarevna and cesarevitch. as a tribute
to their imaginary origin But the word
''tsar" has no Latin etymology: 1t Is not the
translation Of the word caesar" The
proof OF It Is that Peter the Great added
the title imperator to his title of tsar dur
ing the first years Of his reign. Concerning
the true etymology OF 'tsar' we may be
obliged to look for 1t In the Persian ''sar.'
which means king, and Is an old Chaldean
Oord.

Parker Failed to Throw Grant.

The wrestling match which took place at
the Lyceum Theater last evening between
Harvey Parker and Joe Grant, the Dis
tricts champion. was the best match that
has been seen in this city for some time.
The skill and strength of these two men
while on the mat was something remark
able.
AS Parker failed to get fall in the re
quired time. Grant gained the prize OF 80
and side bet Of $50 made by the former
that he would throw the local asp1rant IN
side Of the required time.
The defense work of Grant made 1t all
the more harder for the Massachusetts, man
to score fall, and try hard as he would
his holds. hammerlocks, the quarter and
crotch holds, availed him nothing toward
making Grants shoulders touch the mat.
At one time during the struggle Parker
had the locals head in chancery, and 1t
was only by tremendous burst of strength
that he managed to squirm out from the
terrible hold.
The local man has agreed to meet Parker
again Friday night.

ditch which carries of the food water
from the track.
Both jockey and horse lay PROSTATE in
the mud until assistance reached them.
McGovern. the rider was taken away by a
physician. as 1t was feared he was injured
internally. Carlovingian was badly bruised
and cut up. besides getting broken ieg.
He was SO seriously hurt that he had ta be
shot

crash. J. Weber. his jockey, made a COM
plete somersault in midair and landed heav-
lily on his right shoulder blade. breaking his

News and Bonner said they will not
play for Manager Frysinger, of the
Wilmington A. A., and everyone is in
terested to know what the outcome of
the controversy will be- Bonner told
Manager Frysinger personally. that he
intended to remain with the Whining
ton team, therefore Frysinger may
make use of the law to force Bonner to
live up to his contract. He says tho
Wilmington A. A. team intends to
make an example and show ball play
ers that they cannot break contracts
whenever they feel so disposed.
News said he accepted advance
monev and he understands a suit will
be brought against him for obtaining
money by false pretense. He. also
stated that he would play with the
Wilmington Club until he is stopped
by legal proceedings.
He also made a statement explaining
how the situation occurred. He signed
a contract to play with the Evansville
Club. and received S25 advance money.
He. however, was not anxious to play
out West, and when Manager Frysin-
ger came along and made him an offer
for his services. he accepted it and ex-
planned at the time that he was under
contract with Evansville and had ac-
.ceDted advance money He said that
the only way he could possibly obtain
his release was to return the advance
money. and Manager Frysinger ad-
vanced the necessary $25. News wrote
to Evansville, saying that if they
would send him his release he would
return the S25. Evansville replied that
if he would send the s25 they would
send the release. and this correspond
ence was going on when Manager
Roach. OF the Wilmington Club, APP
peared, and he made a higher bid than
all the others for News services. The
first baseman explained how he was
tied up. Manager Roach then gave
him SIS to repay Manager F'Iysinger
but this was never done, and now Man
ager Frysinger says that unless News
plays with the Wilmington A. A. he
will have to stand the consequences.
