IDEAL TRAINING CAMP.
Managers of Big League Teams
 Differ on Question.
Some Like Quiet Places Where There Is Little to Divert Attention of Players From Their Work
 Others Favor Big Cities.

What constitutes an ideal training camp for big league baseball teams? :? Big league managers and players diff fer in their opinions. Some like the quiet places, where there is nothing to take the thoughts of the players off their work. Others like the big towns where there are advertisements to break the monotonE of training. Some also prefer the big towns because more money is taken in at the gate Some managers like to change every year, so their players will get change of scene. Many prefer a spot where the athletes may imbibe freely of mheral waters.
 In the latter class are the managers of at least five-Fred Clarke of Pitts burg, Bill Dahlen of Brooklyn. Red" Dooin of Philadelphia and Jimmy Me Aleer of Boston. Of the five, all but New York have picked Hot Springs. while the Giants have trained at Mar lin, Texas, for several seasons. The fact that the Giants and Pirates have been contenders for the pennant all the time they have trained at health resorts speaks we'll for their system
 The Boston and Chicago Americans are the two clubs that have made cir GUS trips of their training tours. Co., miskey several times took his squad to the coast and once to Mexico, while the Red Sox twice went to California. Neither team obtained good results.
 In the opinion of Nap Lajoiei a training camp combining the good qualities of Alexandria, La. and Ma. con, Ga. would be the ideal place. Alexandria has the climate, the water and the hotel, but 1t lacks population and a good baseball diamond. The latter fault could be rectifed. however. by the sending of a groundkeeper ahead of the team to get things in shape. But the town is small and lacks amusements. Consequently the players got mighty tired of it in a week or so, and their work seemed unusually onerous. especially as Man ager McGuire was stiekler for that old old-style plan of having the play CTS walk some eight miles a day in ad- dition to their double workout. Again 1t was a case of "all going out and nothing coming in" as the gate re- ceipts at Alexandria were practically nothing.
 Now, Macon has an even better cli- mate--that is, from training stand point--in that it does not get so ex- tremeiy warm. Macon also is a much larger city, but unfortunately 1t lacks as good hotel as is wanted by the big league clubs, who insist on the best.

Isbell. He probably didn't have dime when he came here. Probably never anything much In the big league, even if he was up there 16 years or so.'
 "'No, I reckon not. He probably was a mighty cheap player up here, anyhow, and suppose he blew in his money about as fast as he made it. I understand he Is an awful gambler and rounder
 Regular bug. guess chimed in lazy.
 Pretty soon the conversation waned and after a bit the fan wandered out. lazy pulled off his hat and rubbed his hands over his bald head.
 Y" Say. Mac he said, did you hear that guy? We'll, sir, I sure did enjoy his conversation. believe thaNs the most fully correct and unvafnished opinion of myself ever did get hand ed out at first hand Wish I knew who my friend was. I'd like to send him a box of cigars"

Couldn't Worry Clarke

Fred Clarke was awakened at S o'clock in the morning in Chicago by somebody who told him that Alex. Nc. Carthy had fallen in fit and had been run over by an automobile and was removed to the Cook County hos pital. Knowing that the little infieIder is not subject to any fits excepting his fits of fine ball playing. also being sure that Mac would never be out SO late at night, Clarke asked the in- formant what color the injured fel- lows hair might he. When told 1t was very black the Pirate chieftain saw there had been some mistake and hung up the receiver.

DREYFUSS SEES THE PENNAN1
Pirate Chief Is Certain of Victory In National League ThIs Year
 Breaks His Rule.

President Barney Dreyfuss of the Pirates is silent man. In all the years of his baseball experience he never claimed anything in advance, at least verbally. Now he has broken the rule. He says Pittsburg will win the pen nant
 Tt has been my motto never to claim the flag until 1t has been won on the diamond" said the Pirate chief. T believe in saving wood and letting the other fellow do the talking.
 Tt Is different this year. Pittsburg will take the pennant I never felt so sure of anything as I do of that. | am absolutely certain we will show the way home this year I cant seeIany- thing that can beat us. Good or bad luck may break our way, but we have the team, and that's what does the business"
 So there goes another record. Drey. fuss never talked that way before.

The following story Is told on Frank Isbell, former major league star and present part owner of the Des Moines team. It happened recently when lazy and his bunch were on their way to the southland.
 Secretary McMullen of the Wichita club says: q didn't pay much atten- tion to what they were saying for quite little bit. but after while heard the visitor saying thing about that - Frank Isbell,'" and then began to listen. The fan was lining lazy up as several kinds of a repro bate and horsethief, and Old lazy was siding in with him in everything he said, even going little stronger most of the time.
 "Most ungrateful man I ever knew anywhere declared the fan. Made all his money here in Wichita and then pulled up and went of some where else to spend it.
 "'Yes, l reckon that's right" said

 NOTES

The Brooklyn club has released Out fielder Coulson to the Newark club
 Hilltop patrons rather like the play ing of Finn. He handles fly balls with judgment and ease.
 Chase is fielding his position as well as ever, but always has hit better than he is now doing.
 Higgins. the new Brooklyn catcher handles himself like an old timer. He'll get chance in regular game some day.
 Big Tesreau Of the Giants looks as if he would have a regular turn in the box He's got everything, includ. ing nerve.
 Louden, last years Newark infield- CT, has made a big hit at Detroit s third base and Hugh Jennings says he will keep him there.
 If the Cincinnatis will take s5.00O for the release of the Cuban outfielder Marsans the Washington club will pay that amount in a jiffy.
 Griffith has the Washingtons fight ing and hustling for everything. and likewise he's rather a nuisance with his chattering from the bench.
 Russell Ford, Ed Walsh, Nap Ruck- CT, Walter Johnson and Christy Math- ewson are pitchers of note who have been subjected to defeat this season.
 There is still hope for the High landers. Only a few years ago a Bos. ton team started the season with nine straight defeats and yet 1t won the championship.
 The magnates are partially con. vinced that the championship season begins too early, but they don't con. template change in view of the way the fans crowd around the box office windows
 Pitcher George Bell formerly of Brooklyn. has notified Manager Me Ginnity Of Newark, that he will be unable to play this season on account of having had floating cartilage re. moved from his knee
 Many competent authorities figure the Boston Nationals 25 Der cent stronger than they were last season. and there are Boston fans willing to wager high hats, neckties and boxes of candy that the Braves will finish in the first division.
 Theodore Breitenstein, the veteran left-hand pitcher, who was a s1o 00o beauty many years ago. has at last abandoned himself to fate. He has accepted a position as umpire in inc Southern league, where. they say inc fans have perfect control and the non bottles never miss their mark.

START OF CHARLEY o'LEARY
Was Messenger Boy of f7 When lie Broke Into Fast Company
 Now With indianapolis.

The release by Detroit of Charley O'Leary. who goes to Indianapolis, re- calls an interesting story of his entry into professional baseball From a messenger boys uniform to that of major league club all in one after noon was the lightning change he made.
 OLeary had played ball around the lots in Chicago all his life and had dis tinguished himself as the star of the Mandel Bros. nines One afternoon in 1900 he was sent out to the White Sox park when the South Side team was new in Chicago. It happened the shortstop, Shugart. had been injured and the club was not provided with a capable man to take his place. The Sox really were in desperate straits and hardly knew how they would All in their lineup until somebody who knew OLeary spied him and said:
 There is kid who can play the infield: give him chance"
 The manager asked OLeary if he thought he could fill the bill and Dip, who was willing to take Q chance on almost anything, replied that the. job was made to order for him. They dug up a uniform for the boy, then but seventeen, and he doffed his mes senger's togs.
 He made good from the jump and might have finished the season with the Sox if he hadn't sustained broken arm as result of stopping one of "Rube" Waddell's wild ones with his person.
 O'Leary went to Des Moines of the Western league the next season and

 The White Sox won the pennant the year ODeary was with them and his line playing was responsible in large manner for this success. Comiskey's reason for letting Dip go the next season was that he had an idea the youngster would be a better ball player if given chance to gain some minor league experience.
