thought was bronchitis. Soon, however,
It was discovered that he was suffering
from a severe attack of meningitis.
So interesting has been the progress in
the treatment of this case that the ply

gave an exhibition of the subject before
the Johns Hopkins Medical association.
One OF the prominent members of the
medical staff said:

Next Season.

HADDOCKS, Ga, March 21.TAn old
training camp OF the Newark Eastern
League team yesterday and prevented
practise in the afternoon.
The sudden change of the weather
gave the players a short respite, and
they lounged about the mansion,
framed up signals. talked of the ex-
hibition game scheduled for Monday,
and made the best OF things.
Manager George r, Stallings left for
Newark today. During his absence the
squad will be in charge of Second
Baseman Jimmie Mullen, who is being
doomed for the captaincy. All say right
here hat a more suitable candidate
could not be found.
Mullen is m earnest player n q
fighter, every inch, when on the bal
field, but after the game he is as gen
tie as a lamb and a jolly good fellow
S%tallings FASTENED to Newark to look
after the alterations to be made on the
grounds. The Newark manager is con-
templating the erection of a first-class
grand stand. providing George Wieden-
mayer, the owner of the grounds,
agrees to meet half the expenses.
StalIings believes Wiedenmayer rea
sonable and sportsman enough to dc
his share toward improving the field
and facilities. especially as the new
stand, if erected, would be the proper
ty of Wiedenmayer after the expiration
of the Newark clubs ground lease.

Stallings expects king" Brockett to

as quiet as an oyster on the subject of

'Ill be there when the bell rings"
he says. That's all l may say for the
present.
OF the six pitchers now in camp here
four are spit ball artists. Miller and
Stoup have never looked kindly upon
the saliva ball. but Frill. Wilhelm and
Mueller think the splitter one of the
best curves ever invented.
Pardee is on the fence on this sub
jet. The spit ball is a good thing in

much this season if have everything
