The Reds enjoyed to-day their last holiday for a lonp time, except fprsufh involuntary ones as the weather rrjan may insist on. Manager O'Day had wished a couple of hours' work, but decided tbat it would not be just the right thine to run counter to the local prejudices on the subject. Sunday baxebail is fi owned, upon here, and, while there was little chance of any iittcmpt being made to stop mere practice. Hank concluded that it was only fair to respect the local feeling and not go to the aid. Consequently the boys had a full holiday, which they used to great mental advantage by brushing up on the many historical features of this vicinity.

Nearly all the players ascended Lookout, fountain this morning and gaed In uwe and admiration at the wonderful view ob- tained from that lofty summit. Mr. Frank fetnith. the noted European traveler, who has climbed the Alps -and Pyrenees, acted guide and gave th? recruits from the level plains the benefit of his experience in surmounting all obstacles. Feeling perfectly secure under his leadership, even the most timid clambered from crag to crag like the chamois, thus gaining excellent le and lung exercise.

Visit Battle Fields. In tlie afternoon various automobile parlies were formed for the trip through t'hk'kamauga Park and over Missionary Ridse. and a vast amount of historical Information about the great war was absorbed. So the day was by no means lost. Manager O'Day was the only member of the team who did not leave the hotel.

His presence in the lobby added grace and dignity to the occasion, for Hank, impressive at all times, is notably so when attired in Sabbath regalia. The Red leader set an excellent example of grooming to his men. Hank is a marvel of Industry, and much prefers strenuous action to ignoble ease, but when forced by circumstances to take his leisure, he does so in a manner to Inspire respect in the breast "of the most casual on-looker. The Red boss was overjoyed to learri this evening that regular contests with the Ixiokouts will take place in the next two days. Manager Billy Smith was Informed to-day that the grounds at Rome.

where his club was scheduled to play tomorrow and Tuesday, are under water and the games therefore had to be canceled This left him free to sick his Lookouts on the Reda and Hank accepted the challenge with avidity. There will be morning practice for the Reds for two days of their remaining time here and a game with Smith's strong bunch each afternoon. This will add inieresr to the work and lie the best thing for the especially for the pitchers, who need the actual stress of combat, to pel reel tnemselve in their work. Phelan Can Flay Second. All the players, with the exception of r.gan and Esmond, are in shape for anv kind of work.

Egan's ankle is growing day By day. but Manager O'Day expects 10 uae him in the line-up until the team gets to Columbus. Phelan Is going so well at second base that there no use of taking any risk. on Dick being ae- vere'y injured while fielding or running liases with a bad sprain.

He may 'iuri tomorrow, inougn is more likely that Texas McDonald will continue at the "short Held for a day or two longer Tiie other Reds are in such fine shape tna: tuey yuuld be glad to have the season jHgin to-morrow. So would Hank, except tor ine raci.tnat tie is looking for a' few more days of labor for his pitching stair in order that it may lie ready for the cru- cja.

Hugh McKlnnon, representing John Ryan, owner of the Cincinnati franchise in the United States League, arrived In Cincinnati yesterday to take charge of affairs connected with the local elub. Mr. McKlnnon will act as business and- field manager and will get together the club that will represent Cincinnati in the new league.

Mr. McKlnnon said that Ryan was too busy to come to Cincinnati himself and he has been designated as the local representative.

Louis American and National League teams here this afternoon, in which the Browns won in the last half of tiie ninth inning, score to 3. The Browns' batting and base-running tactics were amazing. Tiie American Leaguers stood up at the plate and made Bob Harmon pitch until he put over just what they wanted. Then they 'smashed safe drives, getting all told an even doren. and once any of the Brown players got on the bags they tore around the sacks.

BiU Hogan pulled a base-running stunt in the eighth inning that Is seldom ever seen In a major league baseball game, unless Ty Cobb happens to lie the runner. With two out Hogan ran safely home from second base after Pratt had sent grounder squarely into the hands of Koney at first. The Cardinals' first sacker was so taken by' surprise when he happened to look up and see Hogan sprinting ror the plate, that he threV badly to Bresnahan and the run put the Browns In the lead Hogan also hammered three clean singles off Harmon. He scored one run and his heineri over three others. He also a base and made a corking good as sist to Hallinan in the second that helped in nin Hauser at the plate.

The game, was a thriller all the way with first the Browns holding a sugnt aoanimKe, and then the Cardinals. It was so Intense- lv exciting In the seventh that a fat man In the grandstand fainted.

BIG PLAYERS I Not Getting the Gravy At Palmetto Park, and Some of Them Have To Ljj Off. Derby Will Be the Big Attrac tion This Week.

Jawbone Is Likely Be Fiver.te, With Sonada as Second Choice Slatfeties of Meet ug Di.rT a to tus eui taas. Charleston, S. March -ll. Anotner disastrous week ji experienced by the big players and most of litem have decided on a lay-off for the rct of the season In these parts. Their present plana Includes a trip North in tiie next few days, and active participation In the racing at Norfolk which begins April 8.

There will be a consider able thinning out of tiie racing ranks here after Derby Day. but the management anticipates but little falling off in attendance. About 2ml of tne poorer horses will be sent try special to the Virginia ir.ick during the next four day. Tiie owners of horses an tlclpate much easier game than here. Those that will be left In these parts are destined for Kentucky trucks and Includes every noticeable racer that has taken part In the sport here.

The meeting which in rapidly drawing near Its close has been remarkable for the heavy Tosses sustained by all the big play era. Including ihe layers. Probably never before at pretentious winter course has the stmt condition usually It developed several persons more fortunate to others, who could show a handsome profit In their operation, but not so here, for everyone alike hus a' deficit to their credit. The only exception might be Sam Louts who, according to reports, has probably cleared In the neighborhood of f2iKUK. Ac cording to many LauIs figures to make money on any track lie oper.ites.

His style Is distinctive and not confined to any one specially. Some of his metnods. while not approved by owners, are notwithstand ing (air. If he sees a chance to make money by securing a horse out of a selling r.ice for a price much less than his value, he Is unconcerned who the horse belongs to and goes after him. Swapping of horses this winter has netted him a nice sum.

Arrive From Juarez. There were several arrival during the week from Junrex. Texas, where the racing tetmlnated last Sunday. Grover Baker and his rider. R.

Hoffman, were among those who got in from the Mexican track. Baker has nothing but praise for the way racing waa conducted In Juarex this winter, and also give considerable credit to Malt J. Whin and his associates for the courteous treatment the horsemen got. He predicts that in a few more yeara Juares will outrank any track In the country in the mat ter of providing high-class racing and that tne Improvement has already made Itself manifest. With the -turbulent conditions existent In Mexico there Is every Indication that the Juares plant will expand and that horsemen In future will lend their best effort tending to the success cf that racing point.

The stellar Incident of Interest the com ing week centers In the running of the Pal mctto Derby, worth to be run on Saturday next. Every three-year-old of prominence here has been entered, but It Is unlikely that a fle of over six will ac cept the Issue. Jawbonea' good showing last Saturday has intalled him almost in the post of honor with Sonada. The latter is still an unknown quantity relative to going a dis tance and until he shows more satlsfactory than he did In his last start, will have to be accepted on probation as the most danger 011s oneor the coveted honors.

Coyle. Don't make the mistake of regarding this fellow lightly as a winter pop-up' and summer fade-away. He will give these Kentucky trained two-year-olds and those Charleston stars all of the racing they are looking tor when they hook up with him."
