field, pretending to be delighted with
everything around there, although, as
a matter of fact, there is mighty little
in Emerson field, except a lot Of Texas
sunshine.
Hobby With Mr.. KInseIIa.
Sunshine is Mr.. Kinsella's hobby. He
likes his sunshine both morning and
afternoon, and we would probably have
sunshine at night were it not for the
mOOnShine that is to be found here
abOUts in large quantities.
The other evening, Mr.. Kinsella
might have been observed mOOnshin-
ing himself on the lawn of the Airing
ton hotel and as a mark of respect to
him most Of his guests went to bed
carly.
We wish the reader might know Mr..
KiEsella better. He is a genial man, as
insIuuated above, and, barring that
one track idea about what n guest
ought to see, is a man of the world
He has been far and seen much. He
can spot a hop on a fast ball from
here to the FlatirOn building, and can
detect a pair of baseball hands even
if they are hidden in a pair of wooden
mittenS.
He can tell you to the eighth of
second how fast a young man is NOV
ing from home plate to first base, and
he can censor a guest list at a glance,
In fact it is rumOred that so far as
he is personally concerned he has al
ready censored his present guest list TO
no are here now VIII not be invited
to accompany the next expedition,
which goes to show you how soon a
fellows faults become apparent to the
naked eye of Mr. Kinsella.
Arrival Of Mrs. Tbaw.
The sensation of the Gay in Marlin
was the arrival of Evelyn Nesbit ThaW.
Mr. Alexander SChauer, formerly of
Odessa, Russia, but more recently of
Riddle Hill, n. D., who is by way of
being a right handed pitcher, went
down to the H q T. c. depot to see
Mrs Thaw get in. and he was some
what disappointed to learn that she
was coming by proxy only She was
represented by a couple Of miles of
moving pictures.
This Mr. Alexander Schauer we speak
of is the young man who cost Mr.. Kim
sella $4,000 Of New York Giantss ad-
mission fees. We know that this was
the price paid, because Alexander says
that the man who owned the Superior
club up in Wisconsin where Alexander
PLAYED posted all the kilograms sent
him by Mr.. Kinsella in a cigar store
window where the public might read
and marvel
For nearly a year now Alexander
has squatted Obscurely on the bench
of the New York Giants watching them
blow the pennant and everything, and
nothing has come from ii. Mr.. Kinsella
believes that the time has arrived,
however, when Alexander can step for
ward and pitch a vast amount of base
ball. Mr.. Kinsella says there must be
a lot of pitching in Alexander, because
none has come out to date Anyway,
Alex gets his real trial this season, and
Mr.. KinSella is watching him with SlO,-
900 worth of interest.
Clad in a long gray outing ulster.
Alexander is gallOping madly about
En- ersOn field these days trying to see
everything al once. He has looked over
the warmUp station in company with
Harry Smith, the Savannah marvel,
and has sought the elusive fly ball in
the far outfield to the end that he may
get his wind and be strong and healthy.
Hurry Smith n Member.
Harry Smith is one Of the members
of the Richard i. Kinsella association
who is believed to have a good chance
of landing employment with the Ma
tiOnal Exhibition company next season.
There are three or four of these almost
entertainers now in the kinsella party.
Ralph Stroud, a serious eyed, serious
hammered pitcher from Venice, Of the
Pacific Coast league, and who was
once with Detroit, is one. Fred Cook,
a veteran of many hot summer sea-
son over in the American association,
Is another
These fellows have a chance because
they know how to pitch. They are not
youngsters in point Of experience, and
are wise in pitching vile.
Al Demaree was no raw recruit when
ne was plCheu up Dy AcGIdW Two years
ago, but Demaree helped the Giants
win a pennant. Both Stroud and Cook
were selected by McGraw himself on
the recommendation of baseball friends.
AIvah Gipe Is Still Another.
Alvah Gipe is still another pitcher
who might be classed as seasoned, but
Alvah is Comparatively young in years.
He spent a bref period with the Ath-
letics, and ne has a great deal of size
TO recommend him. In fact, the bunch
Of potential pitchers now under the
tutelage of Mr.. Kinseua answers the
McGraw requirements of size, with the
exception of Cook Gipe is the biggest
and Flanagan next.
