The memory of the oldest inhabitant recalls a time when the Washingtons once lam- basted Uncle Anson’s team, taking three elraight, knocking all the pitchers out, un- til on the fourth day Anson himself went in and pitched and lo! the Chicagos won. But that was a long time ago down on the old lot near the government printing office. ‘The present generation doesn’t know anything about that series. Hence the feat the rejuvenated Senators have just performed with the unfortunate St. Louis Browns as the runching bag is widely re- garded as unprecedented. The whole base ball world has been struck in a heap— Washington had been putting up such an extremely homely. article that it was gen- rally put with St. Louis in the class of ‘good things.” By accident it might win once in a while, but generally you could count on its losing. The St. Louis boys were congratulating themselves that they had yet to play Washington, for they, too, regarded it as a good thing. Yesterday's game with the Browns was the most interesting of the three. ‘I'he locals began hitting savagely in the sec- ond and took a lead of two, which the visitors tied fm the fourth. In the fifth they made another, giving them the lead for the first time in three days. But in the locals’ half the game was won. With two on bases O’Brien secured the hit into the right field bleachers he had been long striving for, and all three made the cir- cuit. German pitched for the home team and the visitors were unable to bunch their hits, though they made nearly as many as the locals. ‘The only unpleasant feature of the game was the necessary exclusion of Monty Cross from the game and the grounds. Umpire Sheridan had called Cross out on strikes on a ball that was rather high — perhaps too high. Thereupon Cross began a storm of abuse which he kept up after te Bad taken his position in the fleld. Such cenduct was an insult to every spectator,.and there was almost uni- versal applause when the young man was removed from the scene. Houseman, who succeeded Cross;}was with the Washington team for a shart'dime in 1804, when it went on its sou! "he trip. He did not prove fast sno hen, but has improved and did very wi ‘He seems to be a bet- ter man than Cross, who is hot-headed and unreliable as a dielder. aE T ptm obonrver HE] conten omacow” wloenecnecon™ peel rea *Sparned rons_Wasii base bits tally. e ae tonite, tia Hi a Apg | First pe , Har! te 3: oft eae ‘Hit by ee wall jerman, 1. on "yous, 4) Time 1.45. pr ces! croowonmns bases —Wash!

Base Ball Notes. Pitchers Norton and Swaim have been farmed out. The former goes te Toronto and the latter to Richmond. Both nead a season’s developing in a minor league be- fore they will be able to hold their own in the major organization. Charley Reilly was out of the game yes- terday owing to the collision he had at first with Mike Grady. Reilly's face was sweoilen out of all proportion and hindered his eyesight. No changes will be made in the team at present. Mr. Wagner is fully aware that the club is playing great ball, and that it would be folly to disarrange its present make-up under the circumstances. This notice is for the benefit of those people who are continually writing to the club manager with advice as to who and where such a player can be secured. ilkesbarre scored a solitary run in their ries of games with the Toronto team last eck. rt looks as if Mr. Irwin's men have star‘ed on their “jubilee” procession.

One of the Most Promiment Tarfmen in the Country. Byron McCielland, the well-known trainer and horse owner, died last night at Lexing- ton,Ky. He was one of the most success- ful owners and trainers of thoroughbreds in America. He was a horseman by birth, choice and necessity. Born in Kentucky, on a farm, he learned how vt ride a horse and to recite its pedigree long before he could read and write. When quite young McClelland was em- ployed on the Lexington Press as a paper carrier, later as an office boy, and had about decided to make journalism his life work, but Major Henry T. Duncan, sr., father of the owner of the Press, had a stable of horses and made Byron a flat- tering offer to become jockey and assist- ant trainer. The offer was accepted and McClelland’s career as 2 great turfman be- gan. His first mount @as Bourbon Belle, a daughter of Imp. Bonnie Scotland ard the dam of Hanover. He remained with Major Duncan five years, training and riding Lucy May, Victim, Blue Lodge and other good ones. McClelland’s next engagement was with Price McGrath, owner of the famous Mc- Grathiara stud. When McGrath died he left his young trainer his colors, green and orange. After the latter's death Byron went with the late Willlam L. Seott of Erit, and the engagement was a very prof- table one for Mr. Scott. Then the young Kentuckian bought that good horse Badge, and branca2d out for himself. It was as an owner that he was ‘est known. But to mention the names of the horses he brought out in recent years is to tell what he had ac:omplished. He owned and raced Sallie McClelland, Bermuda, Henry of Navarre, The Commoner, Caesar- The With “Eclipse” is a prime favorit “2 Big Drug Bargains.” Liebig’s Liquid Malt, 15c. a bottle; $1.50 a dozen bottles.
