Johnny Evers, If dispatches from Miami,
Fla, where the Cubs are training. count
foi anything. The ex-Baron speed mer-
chant is receiving a considerable boost
as a regular third sacker for the Cubs.
Phelan, if he can develop a batting eye
somewhat more keen than the one that
has hitherto marked his efforts in the
major leagues, should make the Chicago
club a valuable man on the tertiary cor
ner. He has worlds of speed, and speed
is the thing that lIvers is specializing this
season. What is more Phelan is an ex-
cellent fielder and is extremely fast in
handling bunts A trifle improvement in
the hitting department and it would not
be surprising to see the former Baron
doing regular duty at third this season.
The Chicago White Sox made merry
with a vim during their trip to Ell Paco,
Tex, where they will train this season. On
a special car whizzing over half of the
continent the players spent the time in
enjoying numerous demonstrations made
in their honor in the various towns. At
one place the mayor of the village, In
an outburst of oratory, rendered Comislxey
a huge floral offering. At another the
country lasSies gathered about the train
and sung the praises of the mighty Ed
Walsh. much TO the big fellows embar-
rassment, If reports are authentic. Be-
tween stations the regulars were engaged
In extracting ready cash from raw re-
cruits while teaching them the gentle
GENE of stud poker.
The White S6x are insured for an even
$500 600. Christy Mathewson is the indi-
yid11al who wrote out the risk for the
Chicago magnate. 1t is an accident insur-
ance policy and covers the entire playing
season. While 100000 is a neat amount,
il is readily seen that Comiskey has not
made such a rash move considering how
close to the borders of the raging republic
~ Mexico the Sox are at present abiding.

retain all the House items on the bill
for his state and add thereto $9l 600 for
Rhinelander and $4,000 for Ripon.
Senator Bourne is also a member of
the committee, and he retained the
House items for Oregon and also added
for Albany, $4,000, and for Daniel, $4,000.
The House carried 100000 for Roadesbury.
The newest member of the committee is
Senator William r. Jackson of Maryland,
and he has shown himself worthy of his
company, and convinced his constituency
that they made no mistake in Judgment
wien they selected him for the Senate.
He added to the bin for Maryland a few
small items just to prove his efficiency.
They are:
Hagerstown, $4,000; Cambridge, $4,000;
Salisbury, $4,000: Baltimore, $150,0O0; and
the House item for Frederick of $4,000 is
retained.
Senator Culberson of Texas is a demo-
crat, but he heads the minority of the
committee. Texas, therefore, had to be
looked after, and it was, as the following
new item will aboundantly testify:
Hilsboro. $4,000; Sherman, $4,000; Bay

BASEBALL BRIEFS AND COMMENTS

ton is regretted in Birmingham, where
the infielder had more than made good,
but fans have no criticism TO make of the
sand taken by Moesworth in the mat
ter. The Baron chieftain is in a position
to know Just how valuable Marcan is to
his club, and just how much, under the
n,esent salary limit, he is authorized to
nav out in salaries. Moley is going to
do the right thing in the matter, and If
necessary can be depended upon to land
another good infielder to supplant the
stubborn Baron.
James Thorpe is second to none when
it comes to ability to attract newspaper
rutioe. Since his recent debarrment from
amateur circles, the big Indian has been
constantly before the eyes of the sport
ing public over the country. His past rec
ord his hopes, ability, even down To the
size of collar ne wears. has appeared in
the sporting columns OF the various pa
pers. Next to the roaring Teddy Roose-
Welt. YOU have to hand it to the world :
greatest athlete when it comes to doing
the right thing at the right time to stir
IN the people, Just at present the propo-
sition that is gcing the rounds is specu-
lation as to just how valuable baseball
artist Thorpe is. His value as drawing
card. which, by the way, will rival that
considered, as has been his ability as a
real player Thorpe has the physical
requirements of the best in the business,
but from his record made in the dia-
mond lie does not appear to be in the
phenomenal class. or course, as many
sporting seribes remark, he has power
full arm, great stamina, and his ability as
an athlete will stand him in good stead.
However, Thorpe is not likely to ind 1t
as easy to excel on the diamond as he
did on the athletic field, There are many
all round athletes who have captured
honcrs in Olympic games, but who would
Iook about as cheerful as a check stub II
placed beside several dimnutive baseball
stars of the size of-well. say Johnny
Evers, for instance.
All of which goes TO prove that the sue
cessful baseball manager requires an
amount OF patience in his make up that
would make the long suffering jobs look
like a high strung race horse.
