above 300. He was a member of h
worlds champion team which defeated
the Athletics in 1905 and was consid-
cred the fastest lead-off man the Giants
have had until Josh Devore began to
show up last season.
Benny Meyer was taken on a training
trip by the New York Club in 1909.
He had played the previous year with
st. Paul. sBenny was sold to Newark
the day before the season opened and
made a hit with Newark fans by his
clever work the first day out. Benny
has persistently refused to slide bases
because he met with an injury while
on hat training trip with the Giants.
but he is one of the cleverest men in
the game at what is now known as the
"fail away slide.
Jimmy Frick, whom Manager Nc
Ginnity, of the Tigers, has secured TO
play third base this season, arrived in
Newark today from Cleveland, where
he had beer in a hospital owing to
stomach trouble. Mrs. Prick, on her
way to Newark from her home in
Oklahoma, stopped at the Nap town
but could not locate Jimmy. She was
told that her husband was in the
Jaler's Hospital. but he was at the City
Hospital. Mrs. Prick then came on to
Newark. The Tigers new t~hird-sacker
has not yet fully recovered from his
illness. Prick may not go to Lake
wood until tomorrow morning.
Bob Hall was with the Giants in 1905.
He played a general utility role until
August and then vas sent to Brook
lyn, and finally wound up with Proyl-
dence. From the Clam Diggers he went
to the Orioles when Jack Dunn took up
the reins at Baltimore.
Bob Holmes was twice with the
Giants on spring training trips. Tie
big left-hander attracted McGraw's at
tention while pitching for the Waco
team against the big leaguers. Bob

Holmes had hard luck last year, but
should be a winner If things break
right this season.

JOE ACLER MAY BECOME.
A SENATOR NEXT YEAR

Just long enough to ease up the muscles
of the Newark athletes.
Johnny Fiater got off the best story
of the afternoon. when he told how he
beat his own team one day in the New
York State League. There was a
pitcher named Fairbanks with Utica,
who was a winner until he strained
his arm, and the manager was told to
release him. Another team in the same
league snapped him up and he soon
recovered his old-time form. Naturally
ne was anxious to get even with his
former club by defeating 1t and took a
fling at the Bingoes one day. The Bling
easy and garnered five runs off him
during the first two innings. As he
was walking to the bench between
innings h spied Flater walking out to
the coaching line and asked him for a
chew. Oyster Johnny had no tobacco,
but gave him some slippery elm. Fair
banks thanked him and after that ses-
sion pitched the splitter all the way and
o his game by a score of 6-5.
King Once q Catcher.
Ralph King, the Irvington boy with
the Newark club. was originally a
catcher. His family halls from New
Rochelle and he sprang into prominence
with the Rough Rider team of tina
place. When he came to Newark he
tried for outfleld, though the fellows al
ways wanted him to work behind the
bat. Finally he was tried out in the in
f1ald u nd faaadn nnA1 II, g. - 80
light to make a good catcher for some
of the big pitchers with loads of steam.
Their fast balls would carry King right
away.
Holiness Mother Is Sick.
Ducky Holmes sent a wire yesterday
saying that he did not report because
his mother was sick. The real truth
of 1t is probably tina he is waiting
for A. Rankin johnson to recover from
the mumps, and the pair will make the
journey together. Neither is losing
much by remaining in Texas, where
the climate is now in July form.
AgIer seif-Made.
Joe Agler, the Tiger first-sacker, who
is now in his twenty-third year, has
seen his share of hard luck before the
u started to shine for him. His
father was killed in a railroad acci-
dent when he was only three days old,
and it was a hard row for him to hoe.
He went to work at an early age SELL
ing newspapers in order to remain at
school. This way he gained a fair ed
ucation. There is one thing that Joe
is thankful for. He started out to
write with his southpaw, but a Jealous
teacher kept him in the front row and
cracked his knuckles with a ruler
every time he used his left hand at
writing until she broke him of the
habit.

THERE are some minor league
managers who are very particu-
lar about taking youngsters
picked up by some major league
ayers, and some of these leaders will
the big show unless they are from GER
tain clubs. For instance, Connie Mack
never has any trouble in disposing of
a player, though he picks up a score
of them every year. Manager McGraw,
of the Giants, is. in pretty near the
same boat. These men are two of the
greatest managers in the game, and
when they go after a man IL is a sure
sign that the player is pretty well
qualified as a ball player. In the line
up of the Newark Club today there are
four players who have at one time or
another worn the uniforms of the New
York Giants. not counting Joe McGin-
nifty, who is managing the team. They
are George Browne, Benny Meyer, Bob
Holmes and Bob Hall. Browne ven to
the New York Club in 1902 from the
Philadelphia Nationals, being a free
agent when he signed with McGraw.
He had been purchased that spring by
az L ~ SAaN
from Toronto and had been given to
understand that he would be paid a
certain salary if he made good.
1t was at the time of the American
League invasion and there was open
warfare between the two leagues. The
Philadelphia Club did not make good;
Browne brought his case before Nick
Young. president of the National
League, and was declared a free agent.
He was sitting In the corridor of the
Broadway Central Hotel in New York
m day when Johnny McGraw came
along and they talked over the situa-
ton.
When Johnny learned that Browne
was a free agent he Immediately
signed him and Browne wore a New
York uniform for six years, He helped
the Giants to win two remnants and led

s. From q Stan Correspondent
April

IAkEWO OO, April Q.
TT is rumored on a very reliable au-
thority that Joe Agler will wear a
Washington uniform next season If
Manager James McAleer, of that club.
can put through a deal for the crack
Newark frst-sacker. Agler's lame has
spread broadcast, and the Senator'S
have been after Joe McGinnity for
Agler's services all winter. 1t is said
that one offer of $1,000 was made for
Bill Louden and Joe Agler. Joe Nc
Ginnity would not think of parting
with either of them until the lose of
the season, but it is pretty certain that
both men will advance next fall.
The Cleveland, Cincinnati and one of
the st. Louis clubs put in drafts for
Bill Loudens last year, but Eddie Zim-
norman was awarded to Brooklyn.
But one man can be drafted from a
club, so hat stopped Louden's prog
ress. McGinnity will lose one of these
two men by draft, if he does not sell
him, and the chances are that the
Washington Club will get first chance
on Agler.
There are several big league clubs
in need of a good first baseman. Dau-
bert, Merkle, Konetchy and Hoblitzel
are the only f~irst-sackers in the Ma
tional. League who are up to snuff.
Chance is going back and Is looking for
a successor. Tenney, at Boston, is no
longer a first-rater. Kitty Bransfield
is feeling the weight of time on his
shoulders, and the Philadelphia Club
looks slow, indeed, this year all the
way around. Pittsburg does not ap-
pear to be certain with Hunter, and
there you are.
In the American Hal Chase is the
only first-sacker of note. st. Louis,
Boston, Chicago, Cleveland, Detroit and
Washington are all after a first-class

piled with the veteran Davis and the

Yesterday afternoon was dull for the
players. The rain came down In tor

hang around the hotel and idle away

Two Examples Of Dr.. Wlley's
Quick Repartee.


In the department circles in Wash

Worlds Work, DR. Wiley is known as
a man who is good company and who
SAYS things worth repeating. Soon aft
er the presidents order was issued to
the effect that no information was to
be given a congressman by any en-
pIoyee of the government and only
heads of departments could furnish in
formation DR.. Wiley met a member of
congress.
Good morning. doctor How are
you this morning. was the greeting
Il can't tell you" promptly respond
ed the doctor 'sYou'll have to ask the
secretary
One of the best examples of his
quickness of repartee is the exclusive
property OF the women of the bureau
OF chemistry.
They all call him 1.-The big chief.
Once petite young woman of the bu-
reau met the doctor as he was passing
along the corridor to his Office.

torted the doctor
