Opening Bouts for Championship at
 the New York A. c.

The intercollegiate fencing cham pionships with foils began last week in the gymnasium of the New York A. C., and the preliminary bouts were disposed of. In order to expedite the contest, the fencers were divided into squads and three strips were kept go- ing. The conditions were that each member of one team must fence the members of every other team, and as there were seven institutions repre- sented this made 1S9 bouts in all.
 Last year the individual and team honors went to West Point and the cadets were on hand again with a likely trio. F. w Honeycutt. who car ried the army colors through last year without a defeat, was an absentee, he having graduated. and the only mem- Der of last years team was A. E. Bar Der. Harvard had two of last years aggregation in Mcleod and Tyng, and so had Yale in Mendoza and Lawrence It was agreed by the off. cials that the maximum number Of points for each contestant should be 25: that is, 5 for form. for defence, 5 for attack and 10 for touches.
 The work of the teams against each other showed that Columbia had ( wins to 3 for West Point and West Point had 4 to Cornelrs 3. The score of Annapolis and Pennsylvania was I to 1: Cornell and Yale 6 to ?: liar yard and Columbia. , to 4; and liar yard and Pennsylvania, 2 wins apiece.

THE DIAMOND.
JOE CONNOR
 LEFT TO-DAY
Will Join Newark Team at Atlantic City..Bill Thomp. son Signed With Nor. wich-Other News. >

Joe Connor left to-day for Atlantic City, where he will jodn the Newark team of the Eastern league for the an nual spring practice. Joe has no idea as yet where Manager Blrnham Is going to play him, but as several of the Newark players have been disposed of to the bigger leagues, it is possible that he will either cover the third bag, as he did in Springfield the latter part of the season, or take hds turn behind the bat. Joe tried hard to get out of his contract with Newark because he feared he was to be used as a utility man, but from the present outlook he will be used on the regular staff in some steady position. An effort was also made by Connor to secure the Hartford franchise, but the price asked was more than he cared to assume alone. The Waterbury boy has been training hard for the past few weeks and is in good condition now to begin the season. He ought to make good with the Newark team.

Giants, winners of the National league pennant last year. The New York club Is representative club, controlled by modern methods and ruled on the field by man who is conceded to be the ideal of baseball general-John J. McGraw. The business end of the team is in charge of John T. Brush, who for years has been recognized as an astute magnate. McGrsw rules his team in a training camp by frmness tempered with jus the highest results makes him a man whose methods must be regarded as the proper standard. Some managers of baseball clubs direct their men at long range. With McGraw this plan is not popular. Every day from ten a. n. to one p. m. and from two to five p. m he is in uniform and comes in close contact with his players. In short, he is one of. them. He is the first man on the dia- mond. and the last one to leave 1t. This spring he has few recruits under his managerial eye. These young men may not make the team, but they should thank their stars they have McGraw for tutor. Under him they can acquire knowledge of modern baseball After McGraw had tired pitching to his men he told Matthewson to go out and twirl for awhile. Then he went up alongside the plate and took his turn at the bat. He would watch one of the youngsters hit at ball and then say: "Now. old man., you can never become good bats man by standing that way in the box. Your position is wrong" Then he would take the place of the youngster in the batting box and show him how to "step into a ball and "meet" it, instead of pulling away and losing major portion of the effort to hit by useless swinging around. After the youngsters had been coached in this manner improvement was noted in their work. While this school of instruction was going on the other players busied themselves throw 1 ing and batting, and the embryo star of the diamond was not humiliated by what many might falsely term call- down. To McGraw is due the credit for the success of the Gotham club. He is as absolutely in control of his men as a general is of his army. It would doubt 1 less be a great treat to any Gotham fan to see the aggressive manager shouting instructions to his players and directing team play. Cover third basel" he will shout when youngster leaves his
 place to make play and fails to return
 Remember. if you miss a play your
 place is back at the bag" All during
 practice he is issuing orders and telling
 his men where they have done goot
 work, or in what particular they hav'
 erred. His earnestness is infectious
 and it is little wonder that his men hus
 tie for him as they do. McGraw ha.
 methods in doing things and does no
 confer with anyone in the handling o
 his team. He is absolute, gets result!
 and deserves the credit for the success O.

NANCE O'NE|L WAS, IS,
SURPRISE To BOSTON

Boston Transcript.-The apparition
of Nance O'Neil on the local stage has
been the most startling of theatrical
events for years. With such name
on posters only a soubrette who sat
on tables and swung her neat stock
ings could be expected. But here is
new Rachel-an American TRACE
dienne'' who is a "tra gedienne" appear
ing to US for the first time by way
of Australia, New Zealand and Europe,
and that without flare of trumpets
either preliminary or contemporary.
Evidently this heroic exemplar of
American art, believes that real art
needs no advance agent. She has new
ertheless managed to reach the judi
cious few who have discovered her
and holds them SO far in rapt and
GREATNESS suspense over her tragic
periods OF stalwart height with grace
full figure and mobile face, nicely
modulated voice and the perfection of
limb and statesque grace, Miss O'Neil
has the advantage of exemplifying in
her person almost all of the physical
desiderata of great art, but the mental
and spiritual endowment is quite as
complete. Evidently, as far as natural
endowment goes, for the great posi-
ton of leading tragedienne of her time,
in English speaking countries, she has
no rival. Nothing in the way Of train
ing either seems to be lacking. From
her beautiful arm and hand and most
exquisite use of wrist and the open
fingers in gesture-nobody since Edwin
Booth has displayed such hand-play.
One could reconstruct all the figures
of the traditional poses, as given in
delsarte and the old French works for
the expression or heightening of all the
various passions and emotions. AS with
the arm and hand, so with the Whole
superb figure, all of its movements

did the most powerful work. At mo-
ments in the dreadful Ibsen play she
seemed a very 'Lachesis, the fate
that cuts the thread of life as a mat
ter of business: a sibyl, a harpy in
the Suderman drama the most woman
ly and intense of weak women, sport
of a wild passion and sweeping blind
ly over the precipice.
All this is told not so much by ac-
ton, though that is interesting, vivid
and beautiful, as by compelling power
of personality, by magnetism, hypno-
tism, possession by the very soul and
feeling of the character in hand. Nance
ONeil, Irish though she may be as is
SO much of everything great in art
in English speaking lands, is an Amer
lean to be proud of; for she is Amer
lean and her art is American, so far
as great art can have any national
character.
