The heat Yesterday drove the ball play
ers of both the Nationals and Browns
out of town, a majority taking in the
river resorts Charley Jones, the former
National, steered a couple of the Browns
down the river on a fishing expedition.
as he knows just where to pick them out.
Manager Cantillon did not return from
his trip to the Shenandoah until noon
today, and he was pretty hot, because
Pickering and Clymer had disappointed
him in not catching the train Saturday
night for Harpers Ferry. Joe doesn't
like to fish alone. He says he pulled in
over dozen fine black bass, but a storm
drove him to cover in the afternoon.
The Nationals were at the grounds this
morning at the regular time, and, al
though they had two games ahead of
them, everybody went through light prac-
tice. 1t is the rule in the major leagues
to shut off morning practice after the
Fourth of July. but Manager Cantillon
likes to have his men do light work SO as
to keep keyed up all the time. Pickering
and Ciymer kept their eyes on the gate
throughout the practice, as both were
anxious to keep away from their mana
ger. as they knew q warm time was COM
ing when he got within earshot.
Bob Unglaub did not report to the To-
cal officials this morning and there was
nothing from him in the morning mail.
Manager McAleer was considerably
cast down over the defeat Saturday. and
the hot weather yesterday and today
did not add to his good humor. He told
q reporter Of The Star this morning that
he would probably work Graham and
Powell this afternoon in the double
header and use Mr.. "Rube'' Waddell in
tomorrows battle.
You speak about my being shy in
sending up left handlers against the Ma
tionals," said McAleer this morning. II
showed three in a row at them out in st.
them for keeps, but lost on errors.
1T Is just case of certain pitchers
being strong against particular clubs.
The Chicago southpaws are strong here
but ours are not Powell has always had
good luck here. the last time being hit
rather hard. yet he won his game.
II have got the team working In har-
mony now, and that is the main thing
and you can have the best aggregation Of
ball players In the country. and I'll win
out in the long rum"
Bob Cnglaub has been playing profes.
sional ball for eight years, and here is
the full record, furnished by Tim Muir
name in the Boston Globe: Bob Unglaub
first butted into the diamond limelight
with Meriden, Conn.,. where he batted
.321. in 1000. A year later he was With
the Worcester team of the Eastern
League. In 1901 he was drafted by the
Philadelphia Nationals, but refused to
