''Never had cross word with Terry ffi' my life," said Harris later, who re- fused to admit that it was anything but nerves that ailed his protege. ''1 would give every dollar have If he would get well. He is just like my own kid-you see we have been togeth- CT so long. and I could forgive him most anything"
 During the performance Harris and House Manager Teller talked over Me Governs condition, and it was de- cided to get him to go back home for the night. This was made quite easy by the arrival at the theater at 1O:15 o'clock of Terry's wife, who per suaded the little fighter to accompany her home. A detective followed at a safe distance, and a trained nurse was later smuggled into the McGoyern house by the family.
 T am not altogether satisfied with the mental examinations Terry has undergone" said Mir Harris last night. "He will be re-examined early in the morning by Dr Spitzka. I have de- cided that the best place for the boy Is MuldOon's farm. Here he will come under the personal care of the great wrestler, who Is somewhat fond of him. l feel certain that Terry will re cOver-he needs rest, lots of rest, that | is all,"

Jack Warner had seven assists in the game between St Louis and Chicago last saturday. which is pretty tall throwing.
 -Chesbro had everything and made us look foolish,- said Manager Stahl after the opening game at Washington. Chesbro not only has everything. but a little more besides.
 Magoon of the Eastern league. who accepted terms with Manager Heckert to play with the York team for the season. jumped to the Toronto team yesterday.
 The Pirates are rushing the season. A triple play in the second game of the year is hurrying matters. The sec ond game also witnessed the ejectment of Leader Clarke. which was less to Pfttsburg's credit.

GAME FOR
 GOOD FRIDAY
Independent Base Ball Club and Spring field will Play at Driving Park-Notes on the Game.

The base ball season in this city will practically open on Good Friday after noon when the strong Waterbury h. dependent team will cross bats with the Springfield team of the COnnecu- cut league. Manager Dan O'Neill of the Springfields will bring down his strongest team and with that team will come Frank Fitzgerald of this city who will captain the team this season. The game will be played at the Driving
 park and the grounds are now being put in condition. This will be a chance for the fans of Waterbury to show whether they want to see good base ball or not. If this first game is satisfactory to the local management from an attendance standpoint the local lovers of base ball will have many opportunities to see some fast games this season. Against the Springfield team will be pitted one of the fastest teams ever seen among the Waterbury ball players: Dwyer c, Trumbull p, Mulligan 1b, Burgess 2b. McNellis or Edmunds ss, Henebry 3b, T. Lawlor If, Camp or F. Kane cf and Pete Lawlor If. That bunch of husky batters, base runners and fielders ought to keep the Springfield team on the jump from the start and victory would he too much of a surprise for the local players.

JACKSON AFTER JOHNSON

Baltimore. April 1S.-Young Pete; Jackson would give battle to big Jack Johnson. but on condition.
 Johnson offered to knock out Young Peter in twelve rounds. and while Peter told Jack there was a mighty difference in their respective weights he would think it over. Yesterday, Peter, in the presence of Al Haford. said: Il will fight Jack Johnson twelve rounds here or any where else provided he puts up $1.OOO as a side bet that he will stop me in twelve rounds.

day flag-raising from every point of view, according to the dyed in the wool fans.
 Both Batch and Owens were in the thick of every scoring episode in which the BrOOklyns were involved. Owens was particularly prominent in this re- spect. Five times he faced the Quaker pitcher and four times he laced out a safe hit, once tearing off long triple to the score board with two men on bases. He was a factor in bringing home seven of the runs, a days work that cannot but help attract attention.
 Batch had the honor of making the first Brooklyn hit. He got another later on, and incidentally reached first base four times, scoring three runs."

 'It was. up hill and down hill for mine from there on," continued Terry. Over my shoulder as ran I saw six men in big auto coming down the road from the asylum. My nut worked quick, and decided to take to the fields, and that is how they came to lose me-"
 But how did you get back to New York without moneyY questioned one of the anxious auditors.
 "Wait and I'll get to that" coolly replied Terry. T guess I must have walked twenty miles-I tramped until I was ready to drop, when came to some railroad tracks. saw the smoke of freight. train down the track"
 How did you know it was a freight train?" interrupted some one.
 "I didn't, sport,Y acknowledged Terry" until it stopped. I had placed a big rock in the middle of the track. That brought them to time. Then I slipped aboard, and was brought right through to 125th street. Some of my friends up there cemented me, and I came over home"
 "Cemented yOuY' ..a
 "That is what I mean, cemented me-" said McGovern. "Give me some money to get over here. I wonder where my wife is? Guess I will go down to Teller's Broadway theater and see my old friend George Conan and Little Johnny Jones' Won't you boys come along?"
 Here a stranger came in. and after shaking hands, remarked to McGovern: T thought you were on the road in Fame and Fortune'y'' "I dropped the fame to get some mo- toriety, but still have the fortune" 1" responded Terry.
 When the party of five, including Terry, reached the Fifth avenue 'L' station at Sixteenth street, a newsboy with bundle of pink editions under his elbow was shouting: Wight Wuxtra-all about Terry McGovern's escape-
 Here, give me that bundle," de- handed McGOven, rendering the boy q quarter, which transfer was quickly effected.
 Upon the train the little fighter plainly showed that his mind was un- balanced. He rambled wildly in his conversation, passed around the news papers with such comments as They have got me now," and ..I gave them run, for their money" Occasionally he would break wildly into song. his favorites being Then I Will Be Satis- fed With Life" and "Give My Regards to Broadway" both from the show he was heading for.
 Reaching Teller's Broadway theater Terry was met at the door by Sam Harris. who had been teleeraphed for ahd who came over in a rush from Philadelphia.
 Hello. Bossr' he remarked to MT Harris. "rm back again. I have got some friends who want to see tn. show.-

Escape of Terry h'Covern. His Wild Ride on Freight Train = Jackson After Iohnson-Other News.

Terry AIcGoyern was found last night by an old friend as he was about to enter his home, 205 Eighteenth street, Brooklyn.
 "Pm pretty tired" he remarked, after shaking hands.
 His tan shoes were covered with mud and his face drawn and haggard. He wore gray trousers, black coat and vest and soft felt hat. There was no one in the house.
 Not even an Overcoat covered his emaciated frame. As he talked he ire duently coughed and spit blood. To one who had known Terry in the prime of his success, his condition and ap- pearance were most pathetic.
 Come along with. me to Smiths cafe,' he requested. The cafe Is To- cated two blocks, from the McGOvern house. at Fifth and Prospect avenues. 'I really need a bracer. Jimminy, it is cOldr'
 Within the cafe Terry thawed out, and as he played four games of pino- chle with Harry Mulrean. boyhood friend. he told of his remarkable flight from the sanitarium, where he had been placed yesterday morning by his erstwhile manager, Sam Harris.
 Occasionally he would nervously fin. ger his diamond stickpin, which blazed from a reddish-black necktie. The stud was a present from Harris.
 That sanitarium is 10 place for a sane man." Terry commented, and moi a person within hearing smiled. The company had been increased fin size by several reporters and some old friends who came up and shook hands
 The utter hopelessness of McGov ern's malady was apparent to all who heard him talk, as he persists that there is nothing the matter with him He looked upon his whole conduct dur ing the day in the light of q hnge joke even to the placing of the stone upor the railroad track. which, but for tho wafchfulness of the engineer, might have cost several lives.
 My nut is all right" he declared patheticaIly tapping at his head as h. coughed violently. That was why would not let them (meaning the at teiidants at the sanitarium) pat me ir a straight-jacket. I just went up thert on a bet with Sam Harris, the boss and I did not intend to stay.
 ..When a fellow has been left fl their care the keepers begin thei rough house. I'll bet nobody know what people in sanitariums have {, suffer. I made up my mind to mak' a break for the outside upon my frs opportunity"

He was to have met several championship aspirants yesterday at his court fin Jersey City, and they all appeared, but each declared he came to see the others play. Not one of them ventured to toss ball against him.
 One of the largest handball crowds of the season was present to see the con tests, and they were disappointed lot.
 The reports of the champions weak ened condition were dispelled when he appeared hoping to play. He appears perfectly well, and says he feels better than he looks.

In referring to the former Holyoke and Springfield players on Manager Hanlon's team, the Brooklyn Eagle says:
 Although the horizon of the Super bas is tinged with a leaden hue just now. there is broad rift of pure gold containing the names of Heine Batch and Reddy Owens. These two new corners scintillated with brilliancy that oyershadowed everything else and made the defeat not the rout it ap- pears. but only a misfortune to be re gretted. It was a source of comment that the bleacherites refused to rise when the Star Spangled Banner was sung earlier in the day. but when Batch and Owens tore off safe drives fenceward at critical stages of the sub. sequent proceedings. the railbirds arose en masse and applauded- As popular idols.
