GARCIA DEAD.
Well Known Catcher Of Cuban Giants Caught
His Last Foul Monday.


When the last half OF &le second jim
ming of holly contested game of base
ball between the Cuban Giants and the
Woodhulls had been reached Monday
afternoon at Kings Park, Jamaica,
John Garcia, the Cuban's catcher.
caught his last foul. Catch he did,
but then, to the establishment of the
crowd of 20O0, fell over on his face, the
ball rolling slowly from his hand. Ia
the opinion of DR. Rorke who examin-
ed Garcia soon afterward, the excite.
ment of the game, perhaps the tension
he was under while waiting forthe ball
to land, had killed him.
Garcia had caughtmost of the games
which the Cubans had played in recent
years.
Many of the base ball players in this
vicinity will remember him.
