| Paris, Feb. eo.-After infinite labor and
| overworking all our persuasive power.
your correspondent has secured an in
| dividual and separate interview with
each and every member OF the Giant.
White Sox party regarding the trir
around this big world. The same Is
hereby presented in composite form e
| save valuable space and we guarantee
this article to be the first detailed and
authentic description OF what each mem.
Der of the party saw or remembers OF
OF the foreign lands in which he and
they dropped for various spaces of time
Now, We will begin:
We'll, the boat trip to Japan was
something terrible, terrible, terrible. We
received a wonderful reception in Nippon
but, honstly, the waves We encountered
on our trip to Japan were, well about
ten or twenty times high as the Metro
politan Tower. Manila is certainly a
remarkable spot, but we surely thought
we were going to sink along with the
Rship on our glide over the ocean tc
Japan Australia is a big, open-faced
country, but the water that our shir
sailed on going to Japan was very rough
Much to our surprise and amazement
when We reached Italy we discovered
that the country was heavily populated
by Wops.
France is a beautiful country. barring
the Frenchmen. but Bill Klein, that Beau
Brummel of an umpire, couldn't eat a
mouthful going to Japan, and 1t GER
tainly causes ball player much an
Guish when he knows an umpire cannot
eat.
Myron Herrick, who holds down the
position as American Ambassador in this
fair town, gave an afternoon tea re-
ception and a party at the Embassy to-
day to the mob.
Hon. Ambassador Myron Herrick
comes from the State Of Ohio, noted for
Garry Hermann and many baseball
managers, but out of respect for Am
bassadorial feelings nothing was said
about the Reds during the reception
which was notable and memorable in
that no speeches rendered the atmo-
sphere.
There is great unrest in the Hibernian
contingent over the rumor that Fred
Merkle Hans Lobert and other Germans
had voted to cut out Dublin and descend
upon Berlin. Joe Mullins and Father Nc
Namara, of Chicago, favored holding an
Indignation meeting Immediately until
they found out that the cruel and base
less scandal was spread by Steve Evans.
Charles A. Comiskey continues to inn
prove, and is up and around daily, for
this is no town to be sick in. The "old
Roman" plans TO go to California where
his team will train, II he can possibly
do so. Jimmy Callahan received a cable
gram from Ed Walsh, the Sfe moist de-
Iiverer, announcing that he will win fifty
out of sixty games this year. Some of
the band think that Edward is somewhat
of a Mexican athlete.
Larry Doyle, a member OF the bride
groom detachment, has received a great
offer to join the Kansas City Feds, but
Larry only hee-haws as he has already
signed with the Polo Grounders for three
years.
The first game in this village will come
off tomorrow with Scott and Wiltse do
ing the twirling and hurting. There Is
great excitement among the many Ameri-
cans who spend plenty of time and bum
dies of coin here.
