NATIONALS WILL Be
At HOME WEDNESDAY
Meet Philadelphia Nationals in
Opening Practice Game
in Washington.

Although Manager McAleer, with the
Nationals who are to play in Richmond
tomorrow and Tuesday. do not break
camp at the Monticello Hotel until 4:30
o'clock this afternoon. the final work
out for the team at Norfolk was In the
game with the Norfolk Virginia League

Yesterday started the change In the
training OF the Nationals. Instead OF
putting the players through practice
in the morning and again In tho after
noon, Manager McAleer has arranged to
play games, which will give the players
an opportunity to work out systematic
plays.
The weather afforded the Nationals at
Norfolk for early spring training could
hardly have been better. Several days.
however, it rained. and was too cold to
get a good workout, but comparing the
advantages Of training In a climate about
the same as Washington with training
places in the south Of the other teams
OF the league, It looks as Il the Nationals
will have It on them. The results OF
tho games after the season opens only
will tell whether the workout at Nor
folk was Of advantage to the Nationals.
Conroy, ohl., Miller and Crooks were
members of the squad who will not go
to Richmond. Wild Conroy left Nor
folk Friday night for Washington. SO
that he could rest up. as he has been
unwell for several days. The other
players leave the training grounds to-
morrow night for home, and the trio,
with Dixie" Walker, who returned to
Washington several days ago suffering
from a sprained ankle, will work out
at American League Park until the
team returns for the opening practice
Since his return to Washington Dixie
Walker has been giving his injured ankle
q good rest, although he has also taken
enough exercise to keep the joint from
becoming stiff. The fever In the ankle
has disappeared and 'Dixie'' says he will
he ready to go to work when the team
returns home.

Manager McAleer and the newspaper

that afternoon at $3.50 o'clock. with the

OOOOOOOOCOC

The Georgetown University basket
ball five defeated the Y. NJ. c. A. team
last night at the latter's gymnasium in
hotly fought contest by score OF -
to II. Though there seemed no doubt
from the beginning Of the game which
way victory would go, the Y. NJ. c. A
men were in it for all they were worth
and spoiled numerous well executed
attacks by their opponents which would
ordinarily have resulted In scores It
was the commendable defensive play
by the Y. M. c. A. men which kept the
final result close.
The game was not without rough
play, and repeated infractions Of the
rules were committed by both teams
The worst offender in this respect was
Georgetown. one Of her men, Gibbons,
being ruled OF the field by Referee
Hughes for repeated fouls on two mem
bers Of the opposing team. Throughout
the game there appeared to be a deal
OF feeling. which cropped out fire..
quently despite the elimination Of Glib
bons from the contest.
One of the prettiest and cleanest
wrestling bouts seen in the Y. NJ. C. A.
gym for many a day took place be-
tween the halves of the basket bail
team. The opposing grapplers were H.
K. Gilmore. a senior OF Princeton Uni

Easter vacation in Washington, and

defeat before the Annapolis midshipmen
here this afternoon by the score Of to
1. It was one Of the pretttest games OF
ball that has been played on the local
diamond in many Q day.
The visitors brought q scare to the

when q runner missed the plate only by q
few inches. It was a miserable error OF
an easy ny to handle that brought gloom
to the Cornell camp. With q man on

eating that the game would likely 60
several more innings. and perhaps until
darkness. Rutherford, Cornelrs left
fielder, missed Anderson's short ny into
that garden and this allowed Abbott to
sprint home from the second sack. The
Middies were overjoyed at their victory
in such a sensational game. while there
was corresponding dismay among the
Cornell players in the face of the fact
that they fielded in excellent STYLE pull
ing of lightning fast triple play In the
seventh inning, when the Middies had
the bases filled. and in addition had
fielded superbly at all critical stages.

Anderson Pitches Well.

The game was q pitchers battle from
start to finish, and there was little t.,
choose between the opposing twirlers.
Anderson. the Nays big southpaw. took
the glory of the battle. He stood the
strain Of the whole game. and appeared
apparently as fresh at the end as when
he started in. The six hits made OF his
delivery were kept well scattered.
Each team got a runner across the pan
in the first inning. but after that the
game resolved itself into the battle be-
tween the pitchers. and neither team was
able to get a decided advantage. The
Ithacans. however. fielded in a faster
style, ran the bases better. and what
few hits were credited to them counted
to better advantage, though not sufficient
to send home the winning tally.
Navy tailed the winning run In this
way: Abbott led or by hitting safely past
short. He stole second. Masek went ont
on a pop fly to Howard. Metz struck ont.
and for a moment the visitors rested on
their oars. believing they had the situa-
ton we'll In hand. However, Anderson,
the next batsman, sent q high ny to short

one to handle. but 1t was mufted by

The Penalties of Indifference.

Following is sermon on town i'm
provement that should be read by every
man residing IN rural sections throughout
the country: The man who expending
his energies wholly on private affairs, re-
fuses to take trouble about public affairs,
pluming himself on his wisdom in minding
his own business, is blind to the fact that
his own business is made possible only
by maintenance OF healthy social state
and that he loses all around by detective
governmental arrangements. Where there
are many like mindedwith himself-where
as a consequence offices come to be filled
by political adventurer and opinion is
swayed by demagogues-where bribery
vitiates the administration OF law and
makes fraudulent state transactions habit
ual, heavy penalties fall on he communi-
T. at large and, among others, on those
who have thus done everything for self
and nothing for society. Their invest
ments are insecure. Recovery OF their
debts is difficult. and even their lives are
less safe than they would otherwise have
been
