Newark evening star and Newark advertiser. [volume] (Newark, N.J.) 1909-1916, 1910-03-30

1t looks as though making errors is a
lost art with Agler. The Beach City
recruit was credited with eleven more
chances accepted in perfect style after
yesterdays game.
Word was sent to Tommy Martin,
who is getting things in shape for
Sundays game, last night, TO order
Gettman's bats. Jake is as proud as a
peacock, but not enough to be sinful.
He simply likes the diamond watch fob
the fans voted to give him through the
STAR contest last season. and the
gold watch the fans of Buffalo pre-
sented him with in 1906. The hard
hitting outflelder never leaves either
get out of sight. Unlike others, he is
not fond of displaying them, but If
questioned will give the history OF
each.
"Ah. no, boys: oh, boys, that is no
good, nohow,' was the declaration of
Patterson. as he lifted his suitcase from
the bus to the corridor of the hotel
on the teams arrival here yesterday.
Several of the players are blamed for
the excess baggage the Western boy
had to carry, for when he opened IT
there was a log of wood weighing
about twenty pounds among his cloth
ing. All had a laugh except Patterson.
and he Immediately looked up his ROOM
mate, Chris Holtz. You don that.
Chris, and you know it, Holtz was
not guilty, for Holmes was the man
who worked the play and admitted
that he was stung. once and now a

else.
Benny Meyer and Holmes had a
heated argument in their room last
night. The former declared that Dew
berries were ~dewberries, and Holmes
claimed they were blackberries. The
dessert at supper included dewberry
pie, and that was the foundation for
the debate. by golly, Benny, you are
from the Show Ne State and I'll be
hanged if 1 don't give you a lesson"
shouted Holmes with all sincerity.
There are no such a thing as dew
berries for a real name; it's just be-
cause they get sprinkled with dew in
the morning. If you pick them at night,
Benny, they are moonlight berries.
Now, believe that. you Heinie."

In the future it should be Tilford
Jones and not Jimmy or any other IAN
die. That's what the Kentucky boys
brother-in-law told the Tigers yester-
day. He is a travelling salesman and
happens to be in this town. He claims
that he is known throughout his home
county as Tilford. During the winter
the former Newark outfielder trimmed
- L. - -
home, and handed another fellow a
pair of black eyes because he insulted
somebody.
While the players were spending two
hours in Lynchburg yesterday, where
they changed trains. it occurred to
Schlafly that he wanted to change the
style of mis- hat. 1t was a dark brown
derby and he offered it 10 Holmes for 81.
The latter had a Stetson, which he
claimed cost him a ''f~ive-spot,'' but
Gettman declared it was a "twoer.'
LoJden agreed to give his a to Holmes
and the Texan passed his TO Schlafy
and the latter gave the shortstop 50.
Who's the loser? As Q result, Louden
has the nat Holmes CAV him and his
old HIarrigan hat. Larry went and
bought a soft hat of the ancient Con-
tlneutal style. and was called George
Washington by all hands. Dick Smith,
the manager OF the Lynchburg team,
met the BOYS while they were stopping
in his town. There was some delay in
the train pulling through the hills of
Roanoke county. 1t stopped time and
again, and Parkin claimed it had TO
back each time to ger a new start
