Wh Bern at Trey, N. T. He Never Worked Very Hunt Till He Tennd Hit Sphere en the Diamond, und New 11 Flayi for Llrln. Tha most prominent characteristic, of s Michael J. Kelly, the man tvhec nnme has been a byword among Uie bascliall cranks tot the last decade, ww aptly designated by the Chicago wit, who thus wrote of him, the occasion being the defeat et the llosten club en its tint visit te Chicago after Kelly became a member of the team: "Michael J. Kelly is magnificent mag Hlflccnt ercn in defeat. The fall et Ilium could net abate the glory et Hecter one Jet, and the martyrdom of WlnkclrcM terved simply te immortalize the patriotic Swlttcr'a name, se Kelly rises Sphinx like from the cinders of yestcrdny ' catastrophe, disfigured mayhap, but undismayed nnd eager, aye, ramnaut, for conquest." The "only" Mlkecannet bodewncd mere than temporarily. Thcrolsn'tanethcr like him In the baseball business. After "Kel," s he Is familiarly known wherever base ball is played, was made the meld was broken, lie is an original of eriglnnlt. Kelly was born Dec. 31, 1857, et Trey, N. Y., and nevcr did anything like work se far ns anyone knew until he began te play ball. Tim exact date of tills e ent is net known. "Kel" himself says, "I always played ball." However, at 10 we have n record of him. He was then ft catcher for the Haymakers of l'atcrsen, X. J. In 1S78 Kelly plajcd with the Olympics of P.ntcrsbn, end in 1677-78 be went te Colum bus and played with the Buckeyes of that place. In 1870 he played with the Cincin nati League club. In t lie winter' of 1870 he went te California with the Cincinnati Buffalo combination, and In 1890 signed with Chicago. He remained with that club until tlie spring of 1887, when his re lease was sold te the Bosten club for (10,000 and he went te that city, receiving a salary of f 1,500. In 1870 "Kel" gt fflO n month, and his advance money whan he signed was 820. When he signed with llosten he drew 11,000 as odvnnre salary. A handkemc, dashing fellow Is "thoenly Mike," a brainy, intelligent player, who plays with his brains ns well ns his lnxly. Ills wit Is as quick as a Hash, and ha lias invented about half of the tricks of the geme that nre new in such general use. One of his most famous tricks Is te wait for his base en bills, und tantalize and worry a pitcher and exhaust his strength and pa tience by "bunting" every geed balletcr into foul ground. He ismareleusly skill ful et it, nml many a basa se earned has netted n, much needed run. Kelly was the first playerw he became famous for cutting third base, and he has always lieen the most successful man lu the business nt breaking the rules nnd escaping the conse quences, lieth en and off the field, Kelly stands nt the home plate with every nerve strung up te its highest tension, Clutcliiug his ImtseA era 1 Indies f rem the end of the hamlle te give him n quicker command of it, he keeps it nervously do de scribing eccentric areas ecr hi right shoulder, with his feet well together, the left a little in advance, Frem his unerring accuracy In gauging a pitcher's delivery all the craft dread him. "Piny hall" is "KclV watchword, and se matter where he mnybe standing his war en-Is sure te be heard when t In, nm. m tlen is needed. Few better "all around" S players ever denned n uniform. His bat ting recerti uecs net. snow nig trne worth as iv baUmun, bcciuiMi he nlivuja plajs for his side, but Bitch ns It Is it give him In twelve seasons play fourth position among the veterans. In that time he has played 1,155 games, been -1,677 times nt b.it and made 1,570 base hits, with an ncmge of .033. In lfeSl Kelly steed third lu Kitting, He was Ne. IS In 18S3, and led the Ixmrue inlSSO. IIj position was sat unth in 16!7, fourth In lbS8, nnd twenty-fifth lu 1SS0. Kelly is ti great run getter, nud ns n Kim stealer has few equal In the profession when it comes te stalling bas.es w here suc cess means runs hud tlctery. There nre men who steal mere bases, but net ever two or three can touch "the only" lu nn emergency. Kelly a.i n captain was net it success in ltS. The main reason for this was that he dissipated, and his example, was net cenduclvu te discipline. Hud "Kel" kept his own behavior up te the right stundard theru is Uttle doubt that Ins team would lmvulieeu champions lu 188'., This jenr Kelly lias kept hlni-clf in condition and has kept his men in line. It leeks new ns If he ought te win the I'laj era' League pcuunnt. Kelly's methods ns u captain hnve been cunugvd. Last jenr he was persuasive nnd his discipline was lax. This year he Is dIitateri.il and forcible, nud yet wltlial "jellys" his men when they de geed work. This pretcs that Kelly has come te the conclusion that Anion nnd Uwlng succeed by enforcing their commands, and that the iron hand, ct en though tact putsnglote en It, is the one patent fucter in n buccevs ful captain. Kelly's new method is ccr taiuly getting wonderful work out et his team. Kelly has written u book called "Play Bill" nt least he suggested the Ideas te his f i lend, Jehn J, Drohan, who wrote them up. In pritnte life Kelly is his worst ene my, ns he li:ts a u hole seulfel, generous na ture thnt has n tendency te keep him peer. Kelly's winter oecupatleu is assisting lu the management of a profitable saloon business In Xctv Yerk. His partner is the former umpire, Jehn Kelly. Kelly Is try popular with the public, and has n person ality that beldem fails te enliven nny game in which he participates. AI. Haishis. POWERS, THE POOL PLAYER.

Unde Beb wna ridden by Jockey Klley, ene of the licst jockeys en the turf. This Is what he said immediately nftcr the race te a. reporter of The Chicago Tribune: "The herse went easy from the start. They wcre nil pretty well bunched nt the half and three-quarters. When we pulled into the stretch I saw he had get the ethers tired enough for htm te win easily, nnd I didn't urge him nt nil. It was n dead clear thing. I think Beb could hnve wen just ns cosily en a dry track. He has n long stride, geed wind, nnd I think him fast, tee.
