TOMMY LEACH
 NOW WITH REDS

Tommy Leach, the veteran from the Cubs, who used to be the outfieId standby of the Pittsburg Pirates in his earlier days. had made Cincinnati strcng in the outer works The Chi cago club made fearful mistake last winter when 1t released him nncondi- tiorally, thereby letting Herzog fasten his strings on Thomas. Leach acting as lead-off man. has proved great success. He has lost only a fraction of lis former speed and retains all his own cunning, as well as the acuteness of his batting eye. Playing in center field, he has acted as a steadying in- fuence on the other two fly chasers, Red Ki1lifer. the come back who was with Washington four years ago, and Griffith who was obtained by trade from the. Boston Braves These thres have been hitting the ball viciously as well as handling the garden assign ments.
 As to the battery men of the Reds. they have to begin with one of the best catching staffs in the game, if not tbe best There are clubs here and there that can show particular catchers as good as Red Dooin, Ivy Wingo and Tom Clarke, but none with trio of that calibre. If one slumps in any de- partment, the other two are ready to relieve him with high class of serv- ice.
 Herzog has sent soodly number of winning pitchers to the firing line al- ready, and says he has still others in reserve. Rube Benton heads the list. Rebel Douglass runs him a close sec ond Dutch Schneider also Is reveal ing quantities of stuff and control. One ef the most pleasing developments in Herzog's mound staff though. is the great work flashed by young King Lear, who was the star of the Prince ton university nine, two years ago. :
 Something may happen in the line or injuries or other tough luck to keep the Reds from having a successful year. If they get an even break in luck they are certain now to do as well as the fifth place, for which we picked them at the start, and perhaps better. If luck breaks for them to any tppreciable degree. there Is no telling wha heights they may attain. So be forewarned if they should land ore, two, three.

New York May s.LBefore another week shall have passed by. we will have a more or less accurate line on how the east compares with the west in the two big leagues this year. The clubs just now are completing the first portion of their schedules, in which they clash with teams in their own half of the circuit. and the second part which brings forth the initial in tersectfonal clashes of the year, lies just ahead
 The opening battles between east end west will be fought tomorrow, when Washington invades Detroit and Philadelphia visits Cleveland for sun day games that should draw out hig attendance in both these American league towns. Immediately after those sanes the Senators and Athletics will entrain again for the extreme western ends Of the circuit, the former to play in Chicago. and the latter in St Louis Tuesday. The Boston and New York clubs, after their game here on Mon uay. will steer westward, the Red Sex to open in Detroit and the Yankees in Cleveland the next day. Thus the full

 This year the National league has no preliminary skfrmishes between such sections such as those two in the Amer fcan. The intersectional conflicts in the older organization will begin in A nr1 T11ac cduxr rrff Boston, Chicago in Brooklyn, Cincin- nati in New York, and Pittsburg in Philadelphia. Thus, while the Amer ican leagues action is provided en- tirely in the west all the National league teams will be playing in the east
 CINCINNATI TO

 There are many persons in the east who regard the good showing of the Reds to date as more or less of a huke They can't see the Reds at all They have been used to regarding Cincinnati ss a tailender and keep on regarding it as such. not realizing the differ ence between this Cincinnati team and ones that have gone before The spurt 10 oate, which has had the Reds in second place about four-fifths of the lime since the season began, is just one of those early season flashes that

Peasants Self Respecting

The peasants, largely of the Polish type appear to be self-respecting and pleasant They greet the casual passerby much as the farmer in America says how do YOU do to the stranger along the road. but without the same tinge of equality in the greeting.
 The once pleasant and prosperous coun- try-side from Lycll to the border has been turned into a desert waste In Village after village there stand only the firm substantial chimneys that even fire will not level to the ground. Almost without execution the remnants of the houses are of brick
 Then one comes to the line and almost In the time it takes to close nes eyes and open them again the scene changes sa materially that one might be 100 miles away.

 The desperateness with which the Rus. siars had comhatted the Germans for every foot of the territory was plainly evident in rows upon rows of trenches always when possible built, at the top of rising ground. covered over with ever green or other branches and made with onnningly constructed loopholes Rarely one saw a trench facing the other way one that the Germans had had time to build hastily in the night.

Lyek. East Prussia, April .s5.-Corre- spondence of the Associated Press 1.-The devastation and destruction that have been visited upon all of eastern East Prussia cannot he more strikingly appre- eiated than by trip from this little town to crajevo. a few miles across the border
 The trip supplies s remarkable series of contrasts that are Fundamental and far reaching. Black is no more like white than this part of Germany is like far western Russia from the standpoint of population, customs and the general ap- pearance of the country
 From Lyck to the border every house. without exception it is said has been Tiled and partly or entirely torn down The broad, we'll paved road is practically lined with the remnants of substantial buildings that in some cases, particularly In the border town of Prosiken, were once attractive.
