called the "champion base ball pitcher of
America." Harry Chadwick, in a recent
issue ol the N"W York Clipper, give*
Monte • base-ball career in the following
word* :
"He is one of the youngest and most
promising players in the country, and, al
though but twenty years of age, he ranks
second to none in his jsitiiion. A I'enn

siderable repute as tbe pitcher of an ama
teur organization of Williamsport, in that

Athletics of Philadelphia, making his first
appearance in the professional arena as the
pitcher of that cluh in a game with the
Hartford* on June .TO, 1877, at Brooklyn.
He did not remain long with the Athletics,

Tory good general player, having filled the
