OLD DOC CRANDALL AGAIN WITH GIANTS In a Class by Himself as a Rescue Pitcher, Ows Crandall, familiarly known as Old Doctor Crandall, because of his success in administering to the wanis and prescribing for sick games, will play with the Giants anether year. Beyond the peradventure of a doubt, Crandall is the greatest relief pitcher in organized baseball. His chief rival in this line is Mordecai Brown of the Chicugo Cubs, but the three-fingered marvel, who made a specialty of res- cue work last seasen, cannot equal the Last vear Crandall was second only to Rube Marquard as the leading pitcher of the league, with a record of fifteen victories and five defeats, just a shade behintd Bender of the Athlet- ics, who won seventeen games and lost five. At the same time thesc games represent less than half the struggles in which Crandall worked, for the statistics show that he too part in 41 games. In other words, of the contests in which he appear were either won or lost by some other twirler. It curves s a familiar sight when thae f Matty, Marquard and Ames ie were being straightened out and tk i ter pitte of safe hits began echo across the diamond, to see Larry Doyle iook appealingly at MeGraw, and immediately the burly form of would appear climbing out from under the cover of the New York bench and Letaking itself with Grover Hartley or Wilson te distant parts of the fleld. Sometimes the man in the bex would steady down, but Crandall would keep whipping them over for the rest of Often his services wouild be needed and with his appearance in a forlorn hope would take on 7 complexion. Otis can give the ball a lus lop when in the mood, and | ninth inning rally “has 'been heiped along by his hard hits. Those who saw him in the fifth game of the world's serfes at the Polo grounds when, single handed, he practically turned certain victory for the Athlet- ics into defeat after two were out in the ninth, will bear witness to his prowess. There have y wai- | many a been times during (he last few seasons when Crandall has been able to start a game and finish it without losing, but these have been rare cccasio For some reason or other, his delivery is solved by oppos- ing teams afier six_or seven innings of work, and the result therof is ter- rible to behold, His effectiveness con- sists largely in a puszzling change of pace. His dinky little slow ball is a mar- vel, and forms a decided contrast to the speed of Marquard or Ames. It nev is to check a rally against these two twirlers. With an assort- ment of curves above the average, Crandall generally can hold the pace, and before the opposing side starts to Litting Kis benders the game is over. On the whole Otis is as valuable to COMMERGIAL EXTREME DULLNESS. Slight Activity at Opening and Clos- ing Hours of Session.

Estabrook of Denver, own- er of one of the largest stables in the west, prooably gets as much enjoyment out of his horses as any man owning a stable of trotters and pacers. Mr. Esta- brook keeps a systematic account of his horse affairs as the head bookkeep- er in a bank and he delights in it Printed pamphlets giving the names, age, pedigree, etc., of every horse in his stable are compiled by him and dis- tributed among his friends during the winter, while in the early summer an- other pamphlet appears showing the engagements each one of the Esta- brook horses has for that season. At present Mr. Estabrook has 17 horses in his stable at Denver, all of which are in splendid condition.
