ONE To the Reds' Big list. The St Pauls V.iqiU.ed Bj Boek? Men. Second Game With Comiskey'g Team This Afternoon. Th LibTiUet Make T-eir Pint learaiee at He Otker Appi Matters Iitereit It tu nasty basehnn weather yesterday. Old Prebs did bis to bold down the et-tnidue.

at the first sua between tbe Reds And Bt, Paula. tioeumonU and kindred evils that lurked In the Brand stand yesterday. Ton could have had any kind of weather you wanted yesterday for tha asking, except good weather. It rained. It hailed, and at on time In tha morning, snow flakes aa big aa clover leaves darkened the atmosphere.

There wasn't enough left In the clubhouse In the way of uniforms, after the nlaier marched out to "pad a crutch." everybody wore two unlforma and some of them had on four or Ave shirts and pairs of trouaera. The Clnelnnatla didn't experience any great amount of difficulty with the Saints. Cumlskey's men showed lack of practice. This waa thelrllrst'rehearsal for and they played like they weren't on very Intimate terms with each other. In fact some or tha players had to be Introduced to each other while-the game waa In progress.

Who 1sthat In tha pitcher's box, Eddie?" inquired some one In. the grand stand of Catcher Eddie Hoyle. II don't know, I never saw him before. I'll go over and And out." said Eddie. He left the catcher's position and ran over to the bench.

Then be came back and yelled tip, "His-name la Johnson." Johnson proved to be a good pitcher. He took up the came when It waa a forlorn hope. Pepper, who opened the game In the box, was given a hot reception In tha first four Innings. The Reds knorked oat 11 runs with (he aid of errors from his support. Johnson took It up where he lefW off and pitched hkkJ ball.

It waa so cold that the players were In a hurry to get through with the Job. They were not one whit more anxious on this score than the siieclalora. Hogrelver was the hrlKhi particular star of the day. He made two nice running ratrhes, and, as usual, did some fast and daring base running. Millar, ton.

played good ball. Ha made several slides that created enthusiasm. Hogrelver is dally clinching his hold on the good will of the Cincinnati baseball public. There Is no douht about his being a ball player. Yesterday he mail, two nice running catches.

There Is no chance he v. Ill not take. He Isn't afraid of going Into the fenr. One of his captures yesterday was madetrpaxKlnst the right field seats. On the bases llvii rain made a hit with the crowd.

He la IfWIy on his feet, gets good, long leads, and winds up his runs with des- Kerate head-first slides. While hs seems to rc-klees In his base running, yet he never starta without a Kood chance of getting away with what be goes after. the aeons: Cimoinnatu -a. a. n.

I'm-pir. hrrtdan, BASEBALL G0S8IP. Although Tony Mullane played first base for the Bt, Paula yesterday ha has not yet signed a contract with that club. Tony Is holding off for a better thing. Ha doesn't think his major league daya are over by a great deal.

"I would have been all light last season but for an accident," said the once great pitcher. "Last year I Injured one of -my fingers and In some war nolson got Into the wound. The flnKer became Inflamed and swollen. In fact, my entire hand was In such a condition that at one time I thought I would have to have It amputated. )t waa my bitching hand.

Now It is entirely wntLoon at it. continued tne pitcher, showinghis right band. "I am aa good now as I evet was. Anson thinks pretty well of me. and before he went South he told me not to be In a hurry about signing.

I may catch on In the league, so I will hold off a little while. I ran down here with the St. Pauls to oblige Coralskey. He asked me to do It. and I wanted to see the old town any how.

I would rather live here than anywhere else If It wasn't tor what haa happened." Mullane looks to be In excel lent condition. Captain Ewlng Is not taking any chances of catching cold. He took every- precaution against the chill wind yesterday. He put oil no leas than five shirts, two pair of pants, two pair of stockings and then pulled on a heavy sweater. He la not going to have his arm or leg stiffened up ty a audden chllL Carrying all this weight he managed to make a nice clean steal of third base.

He caused considerable merriment by sliding under O'Kourke and throwing him up In the air. Captain Comlskey hi here with the team, but did not take part In the game yesterday. He aat In the grand stand during the contest. The Reds' old leader never looked better In his life than he doea right now. He haa wintered well and la "pig fat." Comlskey, by the way, has a good team.

yesterday a play ta no fair criterion by which to Judge the playing strength of the 8U Paula. Until they came on the Cincinnati grounds for practice they had not had a ball In their bands this season. They have not got their winter legs off yet, and are all new to each other. Comlskey has a team that will be heard from in a batting way In the Western League thla year. "There will not be as many players drafted from the minor leagues by the big league clubs next season aa there were thla." said Treasurer Lloyd yesterday.

"The reason is that it will cost Just twice aa much to draft a minor leaguer next fall as it did last falL Last year the price waa tSt0. Now It is $1,000. The big leaguers will have to be Pretty well satisfied that they are going to get a cracker jack before Uuur will nai i iui release. The Manhattans and Poplar 8 tars nlaved an exciting game at the beach yesterday afternoon. The features of the gam were the pitching of Brewer and the heavy hitting of George Teager, who made two home rnna tnto the creek.

The score resulted: Manhattan. 13; Poplar Stars, a. Looking over the New York Club at this -time, with Its men In good shape, there Is every reason to believe it ta the strongest -4nth league. In Ruaie" and Meakin the rrtrr-Ja a pair of nnequaled la the business. They are hot a in good condition, and with "Dad" Cuuk and BoaweU.

the new college wirier, to help out. one can Bee that the club la strong in pitching talent. In relation to other parts of the dub the only weak place la at second base, although Stafford may foot his critics In playing that position "out sight." The only thing New Tork petrosal have to fear Is the Spalding Influence, which haa been deadly to everything it has-ever touched la the world of sports. Kxcha nge. Easter Monday being a brilday.

Owing- to the severe cold yesterday Comix key did not dress, bat If the weather warms op to-day bo will don his uniform and tab bis position at first base. Italians win go BB toe BOX. Smiley Walker, manager of Wilson Bar rett, has invited the BC Paul and Cincinnati teams to witness Mr. Barrett'a greet per-farm are of The Sign of the Crone at the Walnut Street Theater to-night. Both teams will attend ta a body.

If another date can be cancelled tbey will accept It.

Secure your box seats at Hawleya to-day for tha opening game Thursday. The crowd will be a record breaker, if the day Is pleasant, and seats will be at a premium. Captain Sam Baffin and a detail of bis park police will accompany the Kede and Spiders on their street parade Thursday, and keep the boys from banging onto the air. Wilson Barrett and his company have been Invited to witness the Easter Monday game between the Clnelnnatla and St. Paula to-day.

Smiley Walker, who la up on the game, will explain the fine points to the Governor and bla party. Aa Berger and Krauss. two of the St. Paul catchers, are at borne sick, Eddie Boyle will catch both to-day and to-morrow's games. Kddle is the counterpart of Jack In every movement ne manes.

Captain Ewlng. said yesterday that the East End waa aroused to a high pitch over Thursday's game, and no doubt a larger crowd would turn out from that section of the city than ever witnessed a game lie-fore. They will be known aa the Hooters." One of the City and Suburban League teams play one of the O. K. League teams on next Saturday.

Tha T. M. C. A. boys and the Mascotta are booked for a game on that afternoon.

ir.narr Henderson Is requested to be at the T. M. C. A. Tuesday evening, at 1:30 sharp.

The Cummlnsvllle Blues and the of the Suburban League, played a very Interesting game at the former's grounds at Camp. Washington yesterday, which was witness ea ny ai least i.vw people. mt main features of the day'a sport waa the heev hat tin ir and the excellent fielding of both clubs. The score waa 1U to tt. In favor of the Cmnmlnavllle blues.

The last day of a pugilist's training is always a day of rest. He takes It easy on that day and saves his strength and vigor for the struggle In the ring. The Reds will follow the same plan. They will do little or nothing on Wednesday, but will reserve all their force for the Cleveland. Thursday afternoon.

Only three more days and the bell sounds for the big championship race. It would have been nicer to have something easier than Cleveland for openers, but Buck and his warriors will go at the Spiders Just as though they were common, amateurs. They may have their troubles with the visitors, but one thing Is certain, the best the Keds have at their command will be served up In the coming series. Wonder which umpire will be assigned the opening aeries at the Cincinnati Park. It Is to he hoped your Unci.

Nick will give us one oi nia mh. Frank Dwyer Is possibly In better form than any of the other local pitchers. Then, too. he has always been successful against the Unless something happens to cnange ine apiajn plans rana will likely to do the pitching In the opening day game. There ia no love lost between any of the Clevelanda and Cincinnati but If one Red Leg la more obnoxious to the Spiders than another that one Is Frank Iwver.

AU right, let ne see If he can do that, I am iwaaonably certain, mind you, that I can raise the money, but If I am unable to do so, I question the right of Corbett or aay other auta to take down the amount I have already staked.
