Old STAR HAPPY
Biddy MePhee Rejoiced over
Remuneration of the Reds.
Nv Cobb of Old Tells of Game
They Used To Play.
BY JACK VEIOCK.

New York Aug. 21.-When the
Cincinnati Reds were standing the
staid old National League on its head
during July every baseball fan in the
country followed their fortunes.
Everyone was interested in Matty's
team, and everyone had a good word
and a good wish for the Reds. But
no one in this broad old land was
more interested than a veteran mem
Der of the Reds of the old days-a
veteran whose name stands in base
ball annals as one of the grandest
players who ever donned a uniform.
Biddy McPhee, fifty-eight and bald
yet rugged specimen of the old soil.
followed the Cincinnati club from his
home in Ocean Beach, California, Gag
erly watching the score from day to
lay. Biddy McPhee, once heralded
turnout the length and breadth of the
country as the king of second base
men," felt a thrill of pride because
he Reds were winning, and paid his
tribute to the men of Mathewson.
Recalled Old Days.
why, the old Reds are going grea
guns" said McPhee to a coast writer.
They are fighting like the teams of
the old days, and they bring back
lot of cherished memories to me.
of course, baseball has improved
so much that there is little compari-
son to the old article, altho when
left Cincinnati in 1900 we had a great
team"
And when one looks back at the
team to which McPhee referred there
is no denying it. Old Buck Ewing
played first on that team and McPhee
played second. Germany Smith was
the shortstop and Arlie Latham was
stationed at third. Bugs Holiday
Dummy Hoy and Dusty Miller were
outfielders, while Bill Phillips, Teddy
Brietenstein and Frank Dwyer were
the pitchers. Harry Vaughn and Nor
gan Murphy shared the work behind
the bat.
The records away back here in the
days when McPhee was a star in his
prime prove conclusively that the
Reds of those days were always a
good team, yet McPhee admits that
baseball as it is played today has the
old-time game tied to post.
McPhee Old Ty Cobb.
Thirty years ago McPhee was just
as much to baseball as Ty Cobb is to-
day. He was a wonderful fielder. and
his speciality was trapping the Texas
leaguers that drop far back of sec
ond. He was a wizard on hard hit
ground balls and the veteran fans will
recall that he played farther back
than any second baseman of his day,
in order to get wider range in field
ing ball.
A feature connected with McPhee,s
career lies in the fact that he was
| never minor Lacquer. He Joined the
Reds in 1882. going up from a semi
| pro team in Akron, Ohio, and in 1900,
when he hung up his spikes, he passed
from the game. Altho offered sew
eral managerial berths in the minors,
| McPhee refused them all. He said
that he knew he was thru and would
get out to give the youngsters a
| chance.
