flelders nowadays have anything on the
felders of twenty years ago First base
playing nowadays shows marked improve
ment In the number of assists, and the bag
is played differently; but comparisons of
the outfelders' work do not put the old
timers in a poor light. In 1887 Jimmy Fo-
garty had 80 assists in 129 games, in 1889
he had 40 assists in lbs games; while
Jimmy Ryan. one of the greatest throwers
that ever graced the outer garden. had 33
assists in 12o games in 1889. George
Browne. a fine thrower had 20 assists in
149 games in 1904, and Sebring had 81 in
1876 games. In 1885 Mike Kelley had 30
assists In So games. There was more
throwing men out at the plate from the
outfield a line in those days than now.
The base running may be faster now than
then, but as against Wagner's % stolen
son and Johnny Ward Ill. and in fewer
games than Wagner played. The Improve
ment in base ball is more in team play
than individuality.
John Anderson. WaShington's new guar
dian of right field. is said to be the finest
specimen of physical development in base
ball.
The '.foater' that Bob Barr used in his
palmy days is now claimed to have been
the spit ball. Barr pitched the ball, how
ever, without saliva.
Rothgebe, the collegian, who has Just
Joined the Nationals, shows up well In prac-
tice. He is fast his feet and a sure
catch.
Young and Thomas have been released
by Detroit. They were offered the Ma
tionals, but Manager Stahl says his pitching
staff is satisfactory.

All New York-Clearng.
The rain last evening knocked out the
game between the Nationals and Detroits
after one and a half innings had been
played, and also prevented all of the anna
teur league contests in the city.
Manager Stahl doubtless concluded that
the Detroit team is an easy proposition just
now with three of it's best men laid up
with injuries and thought the time ripe for
four straight victories. but the Tigers got
start of three runs in the first inning and
then the rain came to tie Nationals rescue
Wolfe was on the rubber for the Nationals
and the wet ball made 1t hard for him to
locate the plate. The result was thres
bases on balls, which, being coupled with
single and double, gave the Tigers three
runs. In the second time up Wolfe went
better, retiring the side in order Donovan
of the scratch order, by Stahl, who tried to
drive the ball through wild BILL being
the best the Nationals could do The
game was started in a drizze, which in
creased every minute, until regular down
pour chased Umpire Sheridan and the play
ers Off the field The same batteries will
probably work today.
The Detroit aggregation arrived In Wash

the crack outfelders, being the injured

badly that Lowe was at second yesterday,
and Pitcher Mullen in left field. In the mix
up Tuesday it looked as though Schaeffer
had tried to injure Mulin, but this was not
the case. Schaeffer and Mullin are on good
terms and always have been. In trying to
steal second Muilin had made up his mind
to slide back of Schaefrer, but the ball went
down in such a bad way as to throw the
Detroit man directly in the way of the
runner.
Mullin had heard of runners getting hurt
In shifting their tactics at the last second
and decided to keep on his original course.
with the result that he carried Schaeffer
along with him to the bag and the big fell

Schaeffer's left leg just above the knee and
the member was badly swollen and black
and blue yesterday, He may be able to re-
sumo playing this afternoon, but it is
doubtful. Schaeffer told a Star reporter
that he has never injured player in his
life Intentionally and 1t is too late now to
start. He said that when he arose from
Mullin in Tuesdays mix-up and the crowd
began kissing him he didn't know what to
make of it. 1t is bad thing to start a
player over the circuit with a reputation for
injuring opposing players, and The Star
gladly takes this opportunity of setting
Schaeffer right. The play looked bad from
the press box as well as the stands

GOLF IN ENGLAND.
American Professionals Hold Their
Own at st Andrews.

Two Americans who took part In the first
round OF the British open golf tournament
championship yesterday at st. Andrews,
England, have no reason to be dissatisfied
with their play. Their scores compared
most favorably with those OF the leading
British golfers
Particularly good was the form OF ALEX
Smith of the Nassau Country Club. Judg-
ing the wind perfectly. he kept as good
line as anybody on the course. His only
bad golf was played at the fourteenth hole,
where his driving got him into such diff
Guilty that he had to make seven strokes.
At the finish of the round Smiths score
was 81, as follows:

This Is only one stroke worse than the
score Of the leaders at the end of the first
round, viz, Harry Vardon, ]. H. Taylor,
"Alec" Herd and w. Toogood.
Willie Anderson, the present American
champion, was not so fortunate. He start
ed by approaching into the burn. and be-
ing too strong with his pitch. he opened
with 9. He got down very good put for
a par at the second, but at the third he
was bunkered from his second shot and
took 5. At the fourth hole he was again
bunkered but a good approach and put

took puts. After that his play very

teenth holes, where he had through miss
