I think the m ost vital spot about a ball team is th at lyin g behind the home plate.

A club m ay win with a poor pitcher in the b o x , but with a poor catcher its chances for. defeat are aw ay above par. 'This yoni;, thanks to good fortune,for catchers ara born' n o t made,, both the St. L ouis teams will be strong behind Hie bat. Who is there that can compare with T H E G R A C E FU L BUSHONG

in handling high or low pitched bails and iii throwing to bases? E w in g catches one day brilliantly and the n e x t day bad but B ushong plays the sam e gam e alw ays.

Densloy w ill compare with him in throw ­ in g to buses, but iii head work B ushong is as much D easlcy's superior as d a y is to night. O ne is erratic and boyish, Tho other is as steady as a clock and w ith the head of a law yer on his shoulders. I knew Kemmler, who is to assist B ushong several years ago. Ile played with the Davenport Club of the old N orthw estern League in ’7S a u d ’70. Tir that team w ere Moynukan, w h o.played at 6hort field for the Athletics in their memorable series with the Browns, tw o years ag o ; M eP liee, now the second baseivi .n of the Cincinnati team ; Harry Mc­ G u ffe y and Joe B lon g, the w ell-kn ow n St. Louis players, and Charley Mason, now the manager bf the A th le tics., Jack and Dave B o w e were in thcN orth'western L ea g u e that year, and so was L ittle N ic. R edm ond, the Gleason's, Radboiirne, Comiskey, Billy 'Taylor, Loftus,; Creamer, the ‘ W hitneys.

Charley and J im ; T m they and other p la y ­ ers who have since becom e famous in tile professional world, hi that League, h ow j ever, notwithstanding the fast company, K E M M L E R STOOL) T H I R D

as a batsman with an average of 335.

I next saw him play on the Akron team, then on the Cincinnati Champion nine and then on the .Allegheny!;. Two years ago he was prostrated with typhoid fever and he has not figured perm anently in the arena sin ce then. hut th ey tell inc lie lias recovered froth the effect, of that Illness and is playin g as good a g am e.as ever.

Ile was alw ays a fine batsman and one of th e best natured fellow s in the world. A good many im agine that tile St. Louis League team is to be weak behind the bat and some effort lias been made to belittle •'the quality of D olan. I saw the latter catch a dozen gam es on the Brown Stock­ in g team , handling the delivery of such ligh tn in g throwers as M C I N N I S A ND M U L L A N E

and In rile dozen lie failed to score a passed . hall or error. As a m u tte r of fact Dolan «needs plenty of work to keep iii condition.

In the past few years lie has been pushed aside too much, and as he puts it him self. ‘g o t his eye off the ball.' Give Dolan plenty of work and lie will pan out as well as Hic rest. Myers, the League Club's new catcher, has youth, activity and pluck at- his back; On the Buffalo team lie caught splendidly, handling alternately the pitching of Galvin, Wood. Conway* and Serad. Ile. is a fine rceci.^Mjj^Vr thrower, a very fair batsman len t boseTiinncr. I u lw a m 4 h o i^ D M iih r>

and is as spryms a cat in his m ovem ents.

N o club in the League or American A sso­ ciation will this season be better equip­ ped with catchers than the Detroit. Jim White, .B en nett and' Jack R ow e. Where i ii . th Q^.co nut ry is ti ie re a bigger three?

E v e r y one of them win lilt the bull hard. throw to bases and run like yo u n g deers. 'True White lias not appeared be­ hind Hie bat iii recent years, but should R ow e or B ennett ever drop out Jim will lo se iio time hi putting on the glo v es. N ex t to Detroit's receivers I like those of Hie A thletic Club. Milligan is th e most stalwart, of all the American catchers, and besides being a fine receiver h e is a first-class batsman. I le will have Robinson and Jack O'Brien as assistants.

Robinson was with the Indianapolis Club * hist season, and like M illigan, is a good batsman and receiver. O'Brien has but one fault and that is g ettin g hurt iii almost every gam e in which lie takes part.

S ev­ eral times lie has been L A I D O U T KOR DEAD,

aud long ago lie was put down as Hie un­ luckiest man iii the profession.

C incin­ nati too, will be well off for catchers next season. I ain told, how ever, that Snyder w ill do but little of the receiving and that h e is really to be Hie manager of the nine.

Keenan has been known for many years as a grand stand player and y e t there*are few better receivers and throwers than lie.

••Kid" Baldwin, who will likely share the bulk of Hie catching in the* Cincinnati team with Keenan, is very well known in St. Louis. 'The - Kid’* made his first lilt a t Gportinan's park.when lie surprised Hie natives b y catching the terrific and erratic • pitching of Oberbeck.

He was then a spare built boy of sixteen , but lie caught like a veteran. T he Mets. will have three regular catchers this year iii Kipsehlager,

rrhe

HOLBERT ANI) CROTTY.

'The former, although of a peculiar^lisposition, is a fine c a t t ie r and a rattling good batsman. Ile can also throw to the bases as rapidly as any man in the position.

Hoi bort, when lie played with the Mets. of tw o years ago, did grandly in Hie position, bu t last season bis work was below m edi­ ocrity, and in his batting lie fell off m ate­ rially. . He wits probably affected with Hie demoralization which had Hold of all the team , aud the com ing.season may play as w ell -as ever.

C lotty, the Met's new catcher, is tile Louisville lad who caught Becchi* on the Louisville E clipse and who did pretty service in the position two years ago when be caught Burns, Sylvester and. Mc CormicK . on the cin cin n a ti team. . He has never been classed as a heavy w eight in the position, but lie was alw ays known , as a hard-working, conscient io n s’player.

Boston w ill have D A I L Y , G U N N I N G A ND T A T E •

■• for catchers the com ing season. T h e for­ m er is one of the m ost prom ising of all the lasing arm y, and that Radboiirne, his pitcher, thinks Avell of him, is evident by th e fact th at lie took Daily in preference to k ftilligati. For my part I alw ays thought ^ w e l l of the latter—-liking him for . his cool P^eud', and for the good cracks lie ga v e the

H e is the forem ost and leading e x p o n e n t on th e bicycle o r trievlo In Missouri, a n d his skill fully equals his popularity. W h ittak e r Is in his 24th year, having m a d e his d e b u t iii Poston In 1802. Ho s ta n d s live feet, live Inches, and tho glory of his wheeling a ch iev em en ts Is largely duo to tho m u s c u la r am bition of his legs. up on which he do te s admiringly. His youthful day s were m a rk e d b y devotion to athletic sports, and his H'ococity for physical culture soon b r o u g h t d m In co n ta c t and p ro m in en ce with devotees n several b runches of sport, a t w h o s o ‘‘h o b ­ bles" Whit caused them to lower th e ir colors.

Ile was destined to excel in some) p a rtic u la r Held, and his a ch iev em en ts on tho wheel when a m ere youth, foretold tho b light fu tu re before him. Tho predictions of Ills friends have been m ore than verified in his wonderful p e r f o r m ­ ances 011 bicyclo and trleylo, all of which have been within the p a s t two years.' In August, 1881, he begun to develop marked ra c in g abili­ ties, In his whirling " a r o u n d tho h u b ." Nine weeks later ho won fume and adm iration from blue-blooded Boston and the lOOrinilo road c h am p io n sh ip in nine hours, a record which tho H uhites graciously acknowledged in m any h e a rty tributes. Ills s ta r was in Clio ascendant.

Ile raced ag ainst Ro\ve and o th er n o te d flyers, giving Boston fu r th e r occasion to marvel a t Ids flying propensities. The h u m -d ru m of Boston life, however, wearied him. l i e concluded his "S tar" would set b e t te r In the West, a n d so hied himself to St. Louis, w here ho stands to -day tho " S ta r1-’ r id e r of tho Western bicycling world.

Before leaving Boston, W hit defeated Haskell on tile Boston Common twice last duly. Ile won the throb and flve-mllo record races a t Springfield, Ohio, last year, and cam e in second in tho lifty-mllo D orchester road race, w inning a gold medal. Ills distinguished w ork a t tile Kamblurs* filii m eeting last Septum ber, In which he won nix races, including his two victories o v e r Cripps, the English cham pion trieyclist. Is well know n to all lovers of the wheel. Ills v i c ­ tories were doubly creditable. Ile m ain tained th e fair n am e of bt. Louis In tho Held iii which tho late lam ented Cola 8tono had so grandly triu m p h ed , coming at’ a tim e when victory was m ostly needed. Since this meeting, " W h it" has m aintained his supremacy* >foul a s u c c e s ­ sion of triu m p h s have m a rk e d his course.

Ho b ro ke tile a m a te u r bicyclo and tricycle records ut the Fall* G rounds tho p a s t winter, th e form er from *21 to 5 »miles, and Hut la tte r from (I to IO miles Inclusive.
