in the party was Umpire Hansel. the

to string along with the club as Il left

as a part payment of his obligation to

In the world.
1t is likely that Mathewson win have
his first real tryout OF the season this
afternoon. He pitched his first game In
Birmingham last year. The big fellow
Is In excellent shape. and. thanks to
MS new diet, which consists or a bottle
OF stout every night. he has taken on
eight pounds OF weight.
On the long trip from Dallas to Btr-
mingham Bugs" Raymond was Ns
busiest man on the train. In fifteen
minutes he had dug up a theatrical
troupe and after introducing them to
McGraw made each OF them do some
kind of a stunt,
