miss he left the balls SO that Morningstar

ELBERFELD IN TOWN.
Confers With President Noyes and
Agrees on Terms.

Norman Elberfeld. the celebrated To
basco kid of base ball fame, drifted into
Washington this morning from his coy
home at Garrett Park for a conference
with President Noyes of the local club.
Elberfeld met Mr.. Noyes for the first
time, but in about five minutes they
were in perfect accord on the local base
ball situation. Inc Kid didn't sign
his contract, as his visit was unexpected,
and the document had not been prepared
for his signature, but everything was ar
to the satisfaction of player and
club. The general situation was also
gone over. After the conference Elber-
field said:
mo. didn't sign contract, vut
everything Is satisfactory. / am so de-
lighted to be with the Washington club
that there will be no trouble about me
Il met Mr.. Noyes for the first time,
and want to say that he Is a thorough
base ball man and fully understands
players
My health has been of the very best
this winter. ] am out in the woods every
day, and 1t does me a world of good.
The season can't open too soon for
me, and I'll guarantee the Washington
fans that they will get the best base
ball from me that l have ever put up.
McAleer knows me thoroughly, and with
Schaefer, Unglaub and Mcbride to work
with on the lntield and .Streety' behind
the bat, We should be able to attract
more than passing notice next season.

HIGH SCHOOL NOTES.

The third base position on the Western
High School base ball nine will, in all
probability, be looked after by Irving
Howard this spring. He played the in
field for the boys across the creek last
season, and although inexperienced,
played as we'll as any of the regulars.
He would be a good man to lead off, as
Howard is well drilled in the art of lay
ing them down and beating them out
Howard Is the brother of Austin Howard,
one of the best nfielders known to West
ern, and who is now playing on the Cor
nell University nine, and Theodore How
ard. who was elected captain of the Red
and White nine for this season, but who
forfeited this title by the failure to re-
enter at the beginning Of the school year.
Judging from the caliber of the coaches
most of the high schools have landed for
the approaching season, the article of ball
put up by the high school teams should
be pretty snappy. Then. again, all the
high schools will have the nuclei of the
teams composed largely of veteran play
ers, and this, combined with the knowl-
edge secured from the coaches. is bound
to raise the standard of play in the high
school base ball series this year.
The question which is keeping several
of the high school followers guessing is
who will fill the vacancy behind the bat
for Western left open by the non-return
of Howard, the catcher on the nine last
spring? In an interview with Howard
he stated that Bone, one of the best
runners In the school, and who played
the infield on the base ball team last
season, would most likely work behind
the bat this spring. 1t is claimed that he
would be the best man for this position
George will play second base for the high
school team again this season. Western
has a good bunch of intelders. which will
make all the other high school boys hus

CAMP WANTS REFORM
IN FORWARD PASS

CHICAGO, Ill, February 3.-Before
Coach A. A. Stage of the University CT
Chicago left for New York this morning
to attend the meetings of the national
rules committee he announced that he
had heard from foot ball officials OF many
states. all of whom want rules that will
lessen the liability Of players to serious
accidents and deaths
Stages pet suggestion al the New York
sessions will be regarding the forward
pass. He will seek to have the rules sur
rounding this play changed in such
way as to make the pass more popular.
THE real reason the forward pass
seems to have increased the injuries is
that it has been tempered with too
much" he said. THE rules for the last
two years necessitate playing the men In
such way as to leave the tackles un-
protected and thus invite mass play, the
real cause of injuries.

KEOGH WINS POOL
TITLE FROM HUESTON

NEW YORK, February 3.-Jerome r.
Keogh of Rochester, once before cham
pion professional pool player of the world
and thrice the unsuccessful challenger for
the title, carried off the honors and the
title last night in the concert hall of the
New York Theater, when he defeated
Thomas A. Hueston OF St. Louis in a
six-hundred-po match by the score of
600 to $40.
The victory was more or less popu-
lar one, although certainly it was not
greeted with the warmth that the new
champions machine-hke and precise play
deserved. keogh had very much tried
the patience of the spectators with his
frequent and lengthy debates with him
self as to how to make almost every
shot. And his playing lacked the fire and
dash OF the dethroned champion. albeit
it was the more successful. Therefore,
the crowd did not take as kindly to
Keogh,s victory as might otherwise have
been the case.
Hueston announced that after the usual
wait of five days to permit others who
champion to file their challenges, he, too
would make a formal challenge for a re-
turn match with keogh. this match to be
played at as early a date as possible
Hueston said that he felt that he had not
done himself justice in the match which
has just been concluded, and his playing
has been considerably below the par he
has himself set.

MADDEN GETS FITZHERBERT.
Master of Hamburg Place Pays
$4,000 for Great Thoroughbred.

NEW YORK, February 3.-The mystery
regarding the purchaser of Fitz Herbert
considered by many to have been the
greatest racehorse in training last year.
was cleared up last night. John e. Mad
den, master Of Hamburg Place. and the
breeder and owner of SO many great
thoroughbreds, admitted that he had ex-
changed $4,000 in cash for the celebrated
son of Ethelbert and Morganatic.
For reasons best known to himself the
shrewd Sam Hildreth, former owner of
FitZ Herbert, and the purchaser from
Madden of King James and other top
notch thoroughbreds, concluded to sell
Fitz Herbert. He informed Frank Taylor,
his brother-in-law, that the horse was
for sale and the announcement was made
Tuesday and Taylor had secured a pur-
kohler. Yesterday Mr.. kohler said that
he knew nothing about the transaction
and could not imagine how his name be-
came mixed up with 1t.
Late yesterday afternoon Madden, who
is in New York to attend the sale of light
den, admitted that he had bought FitZ
Herbert and added:
Il consider Fitz Herbert the best horse
in America and maybe in the world for
racing and breeding purposes. When
horses of that kind are for sale they are
usually picked up by men like Mr.. keene
or Mr.. Belmont. l race as we'll as breed
horses. and was glad to buy Fitz Her
bert, even if he did cost me $4,000. He
is four-year-old this year. and l see
no reason why the horse should not full
fill Hildreth's expectations and win most
of the big handicaps, even II he has been
assigned the top weight in most OF them y
Those interested in thoroughbreds will
be inclined to speculate on what will be
the next shift in ownership of race horses
as between Madden and Hildreth. In the
autumn of 1903, when FYtz Herbert was
a two-year-old, he was jointly owned by
Madden and Hidreth. When the winter
racing began in California and Hildreth
determined to race on the coast, 1t was
reported that Madden had Sold his inter-
est In the colt to Hildreth. And now 1t
happens that the master of Hamburg
Place becomes the full-fledged owner Of
the best son thus far of Perry Belmont
Ehelbert. When the colts racing days
are over he will doubtless find his place
in the stud in the blue grass country of
kentucky.
