HERE'S ONE ON THE "ROOKEY.n

zIed by Commander

A drummer sometimes gets his or
dcrs twisted, but never quite SO badly
as the "rookcy' / saw down at Chick
amauga when the troops We're being
mustered in for the Spanish.Amcrican
war, says a travelling man in the St
Louis Post-DIspatch.
This boy, fresh from st Louis, was
on the way to the front and proud Of
It. He had his first assignment to
guard duty and ne had been carefully
instructed as to calling who goes
there"
The officer IN command of the di-
vision was n digniiicd martinez. The
"rookey' had never seen him. About
midnight the general came home from
a reception in town. He was all fixed
NJ In his dress togs and he was the
SWEETEST thing the new guard ever
saw As the general passed his post
the boy gazed at him opcn.mouthcd.
Just In time he remembered ne was
expected to say something SO he
gaspod:

Leading Batters
of the
AmericanLeague

Niles, the fast st. Louis yOungster.
holds the batting lead of the Ameri-
can league, with percentage of 1886,
while Nichols, another young player,
is second. Both of these boys came
into fast company from the Southern
league. Sixteen men are batting 300
or better, but the list does not include
those dear old names, Stone and Keel
er, while LOjoie has fallen away and
IS now just over the mark of good
society
Detroit leads in team batting, Chi
cago second, Cleveland and the Ath-
letics, usually heavy hitting clubs are
slow in coming up to their usual
standing. Cleveland however leads
in extra base hitting, while Flick and
Lajoie are the chief 8luggers of the
league.
Eight pitchers still have faultless
fielding averages. O'Connor, Shaw
and Thomas head the catchers and
Donohue, the first basemen. The
great Lajoie tops the second sackers,
and Lave Cross the third basemen.
OLeary has the most creditabale
showing at short, Stone and Hahn
have the best outfeld averages. De
troit takes a double header by leading
in team fielding as we'll as batting.
Records for men who have batted
over 2G0.
