Maps Coming.
George Stovall and his Cleveland Nap
landers will arrive here late tonight for
four games with the Nationals. Pat
Paige, the New Orleans recruit who de-
feated McAleer's tribe in Cleveland on
May 90 will not perform while here,
having been released with Earl Ying-
ling to Toledo, a Naplander outpost.
Ben Demott, the Lafayette hurler, has
also been dropped to the minors, Jack

best throwing backstops in the league.
Fisher, the former Pelican, has this dis

enjoy his fine work behind the plate.
Also there Is Ivan Olson, the lengthy
shortstop. There is one fine player, and
he has done things worthy of the best.
A marvellous ground coverer, he can
sting the ball Just when stings are
appreciated, and he is sure to attract
attention here.
Cheerful James. ]. Callahan will be
here on Saturday, travelling with
Hughey Duffy's White Sox, and setting
a pace for every youngster in the league
to follow. Cal is playing a good game
in left field and hitting way up above
that 300 mark. Callahan has not come
back" he says, for he never stopped.
Ping Bodie, the slugger from the
Pacific coast and young Corham, the
woodworking young shortstop, are
two more new lads to make their bow
before a Washington crowd. Both are
setting Chicago afire, Corhan with his
fielding and Bodie with his terrific hit
ting.

The Tigers woke up today with the
fever Of battle in their eyes. The red
badge of courage famed in their sight,
and Jim DeIehanty murmured peevish-
~ that he hoped it wouldn't rain until
he could get just one more crack at
his erstwhile companions of the stony
way. Jim ought to know better, hob
bling around on that bum runner Of his,
but his spirit is that of the whole Tiger
outfit. No matter how bunged up they
may be, they are always looking for
blood.
The Detroit stars, quite a bunch of
them, motored to Gettysburg yesterday
to absorb a little American history.
They drank in gallons CT it, and today
they are spouting it to all who will
listen. Judging from their enthusiasm
many of the Tigers were pretty well up
on civil war history before they saw
the famous battlefield, and needed but
one peek at it to refresh their memories
and make them barkers for the show.
Trouble Ahead.
Hughey Jennings expects his trou-
bles tomorrow when he opens a four
game series with the worlds champions
in Shibe Park, Philadelphia, and will
use his best pitchers in the mix-ups
with the Athletics. wild Bilr' Dono-
van is sure to be used in one Of the

done the best work thus far Of all the
young Tiger cubs. will be sent in for
his try-out against those terrible Philly

be worked and. all In all, Manager Jen-

him.

it." said Jennings today. but think we
are fully as strong as the Athletics, and

SLUGGERS FOOLED
BY HIS BENDERST
Lelivelt and Gessler Can Only Con-
meet for Flies With Young
ster Pitching.
By SENATOR"

Young Walter Herrell. the Walford
twirler, got his baptism against big
league swatters this morning at the
Florida avenue park and came through
with flying colors. When his work was
finished, Manager McAleer Immediately
signed him up to a National contract,
and will carry him for further develop
ments.
"Herrell looks very good to me-" said
Manager McAleer at the close of the
practice. and I'm going to keep him.
He looks very good for a boy off the
lots"
For twenty-five minutes the CONNER
cial Lacquer was worked against all
the Nationals best hitterS and they had
their troubles with his benders. Jack
Lelivelt and Doc Gessler, just now kill
ing the ball, could put up only little
flies, and wild" Conway bounced
grounders to short and nothing more
Herman Schaefer alone had the lad
worried, and got enough bases on balls
to win a game all by himself.
Has Plenty of Speed.
Though not very big, Herrell ap-
peared to have plenty of speed and
his shook" for lefthanders seemed
mystifying. He was willing to show
all he had and. with "Gabby" Street
behind the plate, tossed in his whole
assortment of curves and benders.
Street kept coaching him and the lad
worked hard until order to stop by
Manager MCAleer. who was acting as
umpire behind the box
Herrell is not likely to be used for
many a day yet, but he will receive
coaching every morning from McAleer
and the old heads on the team and. IL
he continues as well as he has be-
gun. he should blossom out into a
major Lacquer before the season is
over Fred Sherry, joining the team
a green lad from the bushes, is get
ting better with every trial on the
mound and Herrell will enjoy the
same chances
The acquisition of Herrell gives the
Nationals three young twirlers being
developed by Manager McAleer. Hugh
High. the Norfolk Tidewater Lacquer,
seems worth while. Fred Sherry is
farther advanced than either of the
others, and may soon be started in
a game.
Elberfeld to Keep Sack.
Kid Elberfelds lame ankle is still
causing him some trouble, though
he continues to practice every day.
He worked out this morning and had
some difficulty getting around to his
right. However, he expects to be
ready to play inside of a week.
When Elberfeld is in shape for &C
tive work he will be sent back to
third base again. Manager McAleer
havinb come to the conclusion that
"Rubbershirt Bill" Cunningham has
hit his stride. Until the latter began

is satisfactory to McAleer, who never
