TIMELY BITS OF SPORT
Newark Indians Pursued by a
Most Active H0odoO.
THIRTEEN THE REAL CAUSE
Smiling Jack" Chesbro Gets
Reinstatement and Is Deter
mined to Come Back.

An active hoodoo is pursuing the New
ark Indians, and all because Of the tateful
number thirteen. according TO news from
the training camp at Petersburg Va IL
appears that when the players left Newark
on Sunday morning in charge or Joe NC
Gnnity there were thirteen in the party.
It required thirteen hours TO make the Trip
South, and when they hit Petersburg they
found the hoodoo working overtime. Re-
cent rains had swelled the Appomattox
River, so that it had overflowed the streets
between the depot and the hotel, making
1t necessary for the players to ferry their
trunks to the hotel They had 10 wait until
Monday morning TO do this, and the delay
kept them away from the first morning
practice. Then when they went to the
grounds they found the wind OF Friday
had blown down half Of the fence around
the field and a portion Of the grandstand.
Outside of these little things the team Is
all right. There are now twenty-five play
crs in the camp, and the weather at Peters
burg is warm and balmy, just the right
sort for spring training. When the men
who went down from Newark reached
Petersburg they found Cy Seymour, Harry
Swacina. Enos Fitzpatrick, Joe Philips, BIZ
Collins and Lew McCarty on hand. Jack
Adams and Prince Gaskill, pitchers, came
in later.
Tie Indians helped McGinnity celebrate
his birthday on Tuesday, 50 there have been
