morning when the committee on the

Ralph Savidge Said to Be the Best
Unearthed for Some Time.

MEMPHIS, Tenn. August Ralph
Savidge, the latest recruit to be added to
the Cincinnati list of possibilities for next
season. is regarded by many ball play
ers as the best pitcher in the present cir
cult in the Southern League. Savidge
has steam, curves. height. weight and
everything. ball players say. to make
him a great pitcher. He stands over six
feet high. weighs over $50 pounds and is
of the rawboned build that does not
take on much surplus flesh. Neverthe-
less. Savidge is known as an autumn
pitcher, because in his four years in the
south. three of which were spent in the
South Atlantic League, he has shown his
best efforts after the middle stages of
the pennant races. The Cincinnatis also
may have secured jewel in young Nc

ais had a man of spirit and fight at its
head. and on the charge being published
that the Nationals were followed by a
lot Of gamblers and blacklegs Col Frank
Jones bearded them in their dens and
forced them to make public retraction or
the charges. The gallant colonel would
not stand for anything like such charges
and the way he bounced on those news
paper offices was one of the very pleasing
incidents of the memorable tour.
'Forty-tow years have made many
changes in the annals of base ball. Teams
make these eastern and western trips with
ease and comfort. and nothing Is thought
Of it. but back in 1867 it was something
to cross the Allegheny mountains TO
meet those western base ball players. as
1t required courage to make the rough
trips in those days. when air brakes were
still undiscovered. 1t was a beautiful ex-
perience for me and only wish it were
possible to make another one now, when
age is getting the best Of me and time
is emptying the measuring lass so rap
idly.
ION that trip the Nationals averaged
eighty-ffve runs to a game to twenty-six
for their opponents. SO an idea can be
formed of how they played and how
strangely the games contrast with the series
that is now in progress out there in the
Windy city. I wish I was out there
