THERE were no more reinforce
ments during the night, but some
were expected today. The day
dawned chilly and blustery, but Cap
tain McAllister announced that a cur
tailed workout at 10 O'Clock under
heavy wraps would be the proper thing
to do. Cy .Parkin, who refused to prac-
tise yesterday after he discovered that
there were thirteen on the field, laid
aside his superstition today, as the ar
rival of Browne and Cleary late yester-
day afternoon dispelled the hoodoo.
Captain Lew McAllister signed a con-
tract this morning. 1t makes him the
f~ull-fiedged field lieutenant of the
Tigers. There is a clause In the new
contract calling for a few hundred
extra dollars on the season for the spe-
Gal position.
The practise of the Tigers at Lake.
wood yesterday looked very, very good,
and If 1t is to be taken as an indlca-
ton at all, orr prospects are very
bright indeed.
To knock the ball over the fence for
a round trip four times, everyone will
have to admit is some Stunt. That is
what Cady, the Evansville importa-
ton, did, and believe me, they were
some SwatS.
Aside from these he banged a liner
that literally drove Wyatt Lee out Of
the box. The ball went so fast that
he could not get out of the way to
stop it, and it hit MIN in the pit of the
stomach. Practise In the infield was
especially brilliant, and they played as
though the pennant depended In It.
Agler. at his old position, seemed to
enjoy himself. With Hall at third, Nee
at second and Meyer at short they
make a nice combination.
They all romped around the field
joyously like unbroken colts. Hearne
and Hall did well with the stick,
Hearne driving the ball over the centre
field fence.
Although it rained in the morning
the sandy soil absorbed the moisture
quickly and the ground was In ideal
condition for fast practise.
Captain McAllister gave strict orders
for all hands to turn in by 10 o'clock.
