Dan Cronin's legs give him quite a little trouble running, but he still has his eye with him. It's going to be great race be- tween the Hills, Saints and North Ends for the pennant.
 Bates is the finest pitcher in the league, His catcher is a pretty, good man, but not above the ordinary at throwing to bases.
 "Bob' Hayes, the hustling young manager of the Merrimacs, not only manages his team, but plays second base himself and is right in the game from start to finish.
 One of the young players on the Brooklyn team had three balls and one strike on him when he made vicious swing at ball as high as his head Jerry Shugrue was on the coach line and he let yell at him. Take a look at that" said Jerry, ''are you afraid to walks That's all's the matter with those young fellows" said Jerry, turning to the crowd. 'All they want to do is to break the ball. they don't care whether their team wins or loses as long as they make a batting record. That young fellow would have gotten his base on balls if he wasn't too anx- ious to hit the ball. Jerry knows how to play the. game and if his ad- vice is followed the game will be play ed just about right. Y

 Mike Egan is now the undisputad handball champion of the world. h his international match with Timothy STwohill of Dubhn. he did not lose one of the fifteen games played, and >in practically every game the Irish cham pion was overwhelmingly defeated Seven of the games were played in Jersey City, and Egan showed such SUI periority in these contests that hand ball experts had no doubt of the out- come of the remaining matches to be played in Dublin. -'r
 In this match Egan won the side bet of S1,5OO and cleaned up considerable besides. Before he returns to Amer ica the champion will give exhibitions at Dublin, Galway, Limerick, Cork and other Irish cities Egan says that his next match will be with the Amer ican expert, James Fitzgerald.
