Anent the Old Timers.

The active career of a ball player as
compared to that OF a man in other
lines of business is not long one.
review of the players now in the
two big leagues shows that only small
percentage of the number have lasted
more than ten seasons, while most of the
men now prominent in the national
sport are OF from five to seven years
experience-in the harness long enough
to be thoroughly yersed in all the ms
and outs of the game, and yet not too
old TO be 1.-THE and agile
Bobby" Lowe Is the only player on
the Chicago National team OF ten years
or more of big league campaigning
although Casey and Menefee spent many
seasons in smaller leagues before
breaking into the big organization.
Lowe came in Brotherhood year, 1890,
and is still strong. heady. and ex-
tremely valuable player
Malachi Kittridge is the Oldest OF the
Boston players. He also came into fast
company in 1890 and is still a great
catcher and worth big money 10 any
team.
Brooklyn has two veterans in Doyle
and Dahlen. Doyle came into the
American Association about 1890, and
Dahlen, when only eighteen years old,
broke in to the old Arson team in
Brotherhood year. Doyle is now some
what passe. and there is not much talk
of DahIen these days. although he IS
still q corking good indeIder.

BUNTED BALLS.

Wilson will probably be sent in TO
take fall ouc OF the Cardinals today
It's the same Robinson. Brilliant at
times and poor at others, cratic always.
The Senator'S game in the field yester-
day was the best they have played on
the trip.
It's about up to one Edward Dele
hanty to pull himself together and swat
the cover of the ball.
Bis John Anderson is playing fine
game at first Tor ST. Louis. He is hitting
hard and fielding cleanIy
Martins work at second has proved
better than was expected of the strong
hoy who is an outfelder.
Jimmy Ryan Is grand ball player.
He plugs away like piece Of machinery
all the time, and seldom plays in streaks.
Monte Cross is hitting about .45o.
Monte always bats well In the opening
Of a season and then dies away in a
whisper.
Critics pick first base as the weak spot
Of the Boston Americans. Bow WOW"
La Chance may hear the bell toll for him
before long.
Washington's infeld should pIay to-
gether well enough by this time to get
IN some team work. This feature has
been sadly missing up TO date.
Scoops Carey has lost his batting eye.
Better find 1t soon. as nearly every time
there is man on first and Carey hits
to the inf1eld the other fellows pull off
double play.
Selbach, the light and airy Senator
with the strong arm, asserts that he is

cup Of coffee, a dozen rolls and brace
