CHRISTY MATHEwSON, long
known as "Big Six" because of
his wonderful pitching, is now man
ager Of the Cincinnati Reds while
Charlie HeTzog, former Red man
ager, will be found at short for the
GIANTS Matty's days as a pitcher
are about over and the fans all over
the country will be pleased to see
the veteran in the role of manager.
ONE reason the Giants got the
edge On other National league
clubs in the scramble for Charlie
Herzog, of the Reds, was that Her.
zog's contract required that his con-
sent be given to any deal for his
trade or sale John McGraw unloosed
the purse strings and agreed to sign
Herzog for three years at $4,000 a
year, besides giving him a $4,000
bonus for signing. The other clubs
merely offered him a straight salary.

chance IN the harness classic and one
OF the best races of the Grand Circuit
season was the result.

DER was in grand form on
Thursday and allowed the Reds only

won that game, though they dropped
the second to the Reds.
