That was an awful blow TO Doom. but he packed his
little belongings and went back-not to "Cinci" and his tailor
shop. but to est. Jo." He played such wonderful ball the
next sea son that the Philnes bought him, and he has been
with them since 1902
Doom Is generally regarded as one of the best catchers
in the country. His chance to become manager was largely
the result of a string of circumstances that started when the
Philadelphia club began TO trade Sherwood Magee for Mike
Donln. Donlin was to be the manager. and the trade was
all completed when, suddenly. the stockholders discovered
that they could not get rid OF Billy Murray. who had a three
year contract. The following year the CLUB changed hands
and became the property OF Charles p. Taft. the brother Of
the President who wore short breeches al the coronation,
and some associates. Horace Fogei was made president. In
the mean time the Donlin- Magee trade had gone into his
torv and Murray was out as manager. 1t was up to Fogel
IN get a new manager. and after much scouting he found
Charley Doom on his own team. and he was chosen with
some misgivings.
The nrst thing that Doom aid was to make the famous
trade with Cincinnati by which he got Lobert. Paskert and
Rowan. Fogel tried to interfere with this deal. and Doom
nromptly resigned. Right there he proved himself a manager
witt real force behind him Fogel was compelled to back
down, Doom got the players he wanted ana his good judy
msnt is confirmed by the fact that he has taken the club to
the top Of the ladder and stands an excellent chance OF win
ming the pennant.

Until Hal Chase became tho manager or the Hishianders

in the major league. and he rose to his position by con-
stantly fighting against odds He started his baseball career

DAY he has = feeling Of resentment against Charles Comiskey.

a Job on the grounds that The had mistaken his calling and

Ten years in the big lea que has Increased Dooin's weight
10 100, but he remarked rather naively after the double
header the other day: "f this heat keeps UP I will be right
back to the jockey standard"
Doom declares that Mr.. Fleischman, the former Mayor
Of Cincinnati. showed him the yhy to a baseball career. and
to this day they are the ~warnest OF friends. Tho Phily
manager was born In Cincinnati. and as a hoy he became
acquainted with Mr.. Fleischman At that time he was a
tailor. and nad a cutters Job at SIS a week wnen he became
the catcher for the Nationals. a sem!-professional team at
Norwood, which is q suburb OF "Cinci'-natves never call

1t so happened that Mr.. Fleischman. his father. Senator
Fleischman, and the whole Fleischman family owned a beau
tiful country home In the Catskill Mountains. at n village
which bore the name of Fleischman. Max Fleischman. then
a young man With a lot Of money and an ardent baseball
fan, realized that he would have to spend the summer in the
Catskils, and he couldn't see how his life could be happy
without baseball. He persuaded his father. the Senator. that
It would also add a few years to his life to get a daily
glimpse at the national pastime. and Max was Entrusted with
the responsibility of locating a diamond. There wasn't a
level spot anywhere near Fleischman so young Fleischman
bought a plot OF ground near Grihin's Corner and thereupon
built a grand stand. and sent for Red Doom and fifteen
other BOYS from Cincinnati.

constant Joke to those who worked around him. But under
meath that red shock Of hair there was determination Of the
real Irish kind. Despite the discouragement that was offered
him on all sides he went out in search of his real spot in

National League jokers with material and mas turned It into
