The Senators had the Reds scared at the start off of the first game. Sarcastic applause is a nice way to en- courage a player to hit the ball. The Washington players are evidently waiting on Farrell to get back in the game. Charley was out practicing yesterday and may play in Philadelphia tomorrow. Selbach is fielding up to his best ability just now, and there is nothing that gets away from him. The German Senator would like to play in Cincinnati, and he is probably showing Manager Ewing what he ean do.. Arthur Wagner hit like a good fellow yesterday, but he is stil! weak in throw- ing to first. He goes after everything and plays for all he is worth, but acknowledges that third base is not his home position. Anderson is not the same “Handy Andy” of a few weeks back. He doesn’t swing at the ball with his old confidence, and sev- eral of his hits recently have been flukes. But that is the usual luck that comes Washington's way. . All the credit for the position Cincinnati occupies today belongs to “Buck” Ewing and no one else. He is continually coach- ing his men from the bench and seldom listens to advice from his players. Ewing is thoroughly familiar with all the ins and outs of base ball, and when a player Gecent do right he is quick to pick out the law. Just think for a minute that the Cincin- nati club thought seriously of letting out “Dusty” Miller this spring. He is un- doubtedly the warmest boy in the Cincin- nati bunch. As a fielder and hitter he is up with the best, and when it comes to putting ginger in his fellow-players, there is none better in thé business. The “bleachers” in right field at Cincinnati nearly drove “Dusty” away from the town, but his good playing this season has squared himself with that cheap class of critics. Harry Steinfeldt took ‘Bid’ McPhee’s Place at second base for the Cincinnatis yesterday and demonstrated that he is all that has been said of him. Of course, he is not in “Biddy’s” class as a fielder, but he is quite a hitter, and is considerable of a factor in the game on account of his snap and coaching ability. Shin pads or no shin pads, Steinfeldt is a first-class ball player. Fully 3,000 spectators took in the two games at National Park yesterday, and but for the rain another thousand or two would have been added after 4 o'clock. The play- ing of the Senators the day previous had more to do with the increased attendance that the two games for one admission. There is no city in the league that*will re- spond with larger attendance at the games than Washington when their representa- tive club gives signs of putting up the game for which the local “fans’’ believe it capa- ble. The Senators leave for Philadelphia to- morrow and play four games in that city; three games with Chicago in windy city follows and then tsburg. y . For Saturday 9c. 15c.

On the face of things transfers are generally good for tne club that plays on the home grounds, but from the way the Clevelands played here in the last series, strange or home grounds cuts a very small figure with the “Wandering Micks.” The greater the opposition, the greater the ball playing, is apparently the motto of the great club from the city on the lake. Mattie Kilroy, who is pitching good ball for the Chicagos this year, was presented with a handsome gold watch in_Philadel- phia yesterday by friends from Richmond, a suburb of the Quaker city. = Manager Hurst of the St. Louis Browns has at last secured Jack Stivetts for his club, but in exchange for Pitcher Carsey. if “Happy Jack” is handled without gloves he will prove a good man for the Browns, but a relaxation of discipline will about fin- ish Jack’s career on, the diamond. He has been a tower of strength with the Bostons simpiy because Captain Duffy would not ailow the slightest dissipation. With the backing the Bostons will give him Carsey should do well in his new berth. Several members of the Cincinnati team who saw Tom Brown in Philadelphia say that he blames all his trouble on Jack Doyle, and he is about right.—Cincinnati ‘Tribune. Some members of the Cleveland team pro- fess to believe that George Cuppy will never be able to pitch ball again. They say that he has derived no real benefit from the treatment his arm has received so far, and that rest will do more good than any other remedy. ‘Thomas News, the right fielder of the Pawtucket Club, who is to go to New York, had a batting percentage of .401, according to the official batting percentages of that league, with a total batting average of .641. He made twenty-four doubles and nine home runs, and had a fielding percentage in right field of .931. J. Earle Wagner saved Pink Hawley some embarrassment yesterday. Some of the local comedians had arranged to present Pink with a powder box, face brush and other articles of feminine wear and adorn- ment. When they asked Mr. Wagner's per- mission to make the presentation before the game Mr. Wagner very properly re- fused, The jokers were sadly disappointed.

They Form a Most Important Feature of Military Surgery. From Electricity. A short time ago in England a lecture was delivered before the Royal United Service Institution by Surgeon Major Beevor, entitled “Working of the Roent- gen Ray in Warfare,” which in view of cur extensive military operations in Cuba is particularly interesting and timely. The lecture was based on the result of experi- ences gained with the X-ray apparatus during a recent frontier expedition in In- Gia. The lecturer stated at the outset that his object was to give the resiIts of the employment of the Roentgen rays in military surgery and to mention certain modifications in the construction of the appliances for generating the X-ray which hed suggested themselves to him after working anong the wounded on the field of battle and its adjacent hospitals. Dvr- irg the course of the lecture many cases of interest from the campaign were shown by means of magic lantern slides thrown upon a sereen. These consisted of huilot wounds sustained by officers and men, in- Juring bones, joints and internal organs, Which baffled the skill of surgeons to as- certain their exact extent and which but for the application of the X-rays, so it was claimed, must have resulted in ampu- tation and probable loss of life. The pic- tures shown include all manner of wounds. The most remarkable results obtained by the use of Roentgen rays were probably in the cases of a bullet imbedded in the backbone of one man, in the hip of another aid in the heel of a third. In each of the cases referred to the bullets were success- fully removed by aid of the rays, the men subsequently rejoining their respective regiments at the front. Great stress was laid by the speaker on the desirability of having all the apparatus for military work as simple in construction as possible, thus readily enabling the defects of wear and tear to be renovated. As regards the most desirable means of transporting the apparatus, it was pcinted cut that it was not only possible but easy to have an X-rey outfit working at the front; that the cases exhibited were in- disputable proof that even in savage war- fare the X-ray could be brought thorough- ly under control and in many cases allev ate an immense amount of human suffer- irg. A most impertant point referred to by the lecturer was, that after trying every kind of transport in India--mules, camels, wheeled vehicles, ete.—he came to the conclusion that by far the safest ard Most satisfactory was human transport. As the portable apparatus did not exceed 80 to 100 pounds in weight. ft was found that two men were all that were required, with a reserve of two more with reserve equipments. A bamboo pole or steel pipe some six feet in le1gth was What he found the best thing from which to suspend the toxes. This method of transport is said to have proven eminently satisfactory in spite of the extremely uneven nature of the country. The campaign which the United States is at present carrying on in Cuba is atso through e country difficult to penetrate, but if a military X-ray outfit could Le sa successfully transported and proved such a boon in India, there would seem to be no reason why our armies should not also be provided with apparatus of this nature. A short time ago there was some talk of so doing, but whether any detided steps have as yet been taken in the matter we are unable to say. If nothing has as yet the question of providing X-ray ‘A survey of the powers of Europe shows that from the Ing of the century to had experi . eee POOP OT OOOOH HEE H OOOH OHHH OH EEH HEH OF EL EHHEEEEH ETHOS EH EEOO HESS SOTHO eee rreres woseseseseeseeeses eoecccces Avenue Entrance Throngh S.
