In the second gnmo Hawley wan put in to pitch and Jennings, tho third man up, was given first on what Sheridan called an Illegal delivery.

Bill Schrlver, the Cincinnati catcher, wns a trifle green when ho first signed with the Brooklyn club a dozen years ago, says the Sun. Bill was a typical countryman, but was such a promis ing ball player that the Brooklyn club decided to take him on a western trip, "Where nro we going?" Bill asked the mnnager as they boarded a train at Jersey City, "Out west," wus tho laconic reply. Then Bill sat besido a window and gazed nt tho country, passing rapidly by. When the train reached Newark, Schrlver looked around at tho other players and then sank back In his seat. Ho was apparently nervous nbout something and kept fidgeting until the train rolled Into Trenton. Then ho grabbed his valise nnd batbag and moved rapidly towards tho door. "Hey, there, Bill!" yelled the play ers, "whore aro you going?" "Why, ain't this the end of our route?" asked tho catcher. "How much further have we got to travel, any how?" When Bill Anally reached St. Louis ho was In a sort of trance. DAD CLARK AND THE MENU. Wasn't Up on French, but Gnvc tho Order Just the Same. Ball players thrlvo on good food when they aro traveling. Somo of them go through the bill of faro at tho big hotels like hungry tramps at a cot tago door. Sqveral years ago tho New Yorks wero In Louisville. Dad Clarke nnd Eddlo Burko wero sitting at tho table together, and Eddie said to Dad: "You glvo tho order!" Dad picked up the "programme" and wns confronted with a lone list of French dlhhes, which Dad wouldn't havo attempted to pronounco for big money. "Como hero!" yelled Dad to tho wait er, "and don't bo swelling up In that dress suit!" Then Dad put his fore finger on the bill of fare and lot it ulldo slowly downi past the various names. "dlmme some o' that! "Bring mo a lot o' that! " want plenty o' that! "Lug- along a dish o' this! "Crtmmo a pllo 0' that stuff, and havo It good. Scol" "Wee! Wee! I" said Iho waiter, who turned Inquiringly to Burke. Eddlo waved him off with tho Imperious re quest 'Bring mo tho same!" DIG PRIZE MONEY. 82,BOO for the Winners ut tho Dig L. A. W. Nntlonnl .Meet. Philadelphia, July 22. The worrlmont manifested In some qunrters lest th? money prizes hung up at the coming national meet should not prove suffi ciently alluring to attract the cracka jacks Is entirely unnecessary. The sum of $2500 was voted to the race meet committee for prizes surely a hand some amount for a two days' race meet. In fact the average value of the purses hung up each day has never been ex ceeded at any previous national raco meet. As to tho professional champion ships, thero's not a man on the cir cuit who isn't awnre that there Is con siderably more In tho winning of a national championship race than the golden medal Indicative thereof. Jf any one has any doubts as to the correct ness of the statement, let him come to Philadelphia next August and wit ness the bitter struggles that will char acterize the decision of these most Im portant events. With no race meets scheduled between the 4th and 9th o August, and with tho majority of the crackajacks within easy distance of this city, It Is hardly possible that any of them will fall to take a flyer at the good things which will be hung up at Willow Grove on the Cth and 7th. Be sides, not a few of tho circuit chasers represent prominent manufacturers, who will hardly allow their employes to absent themselves from the banner meeting (and Incidentally the great est advertising opportunity) of the year. The raco meet committee has de cided that the score card shall contain but one advertisement, the space for which Is to be sold to the hlghtest bid der. Bids are to be in by July 21. This will bo positively the only thing In the nature of advertising that will be In evidence at the races. A preliminary handbook purporting to bo the ofll clal publication of the league meet Is now being circulated throughout the country( with view to securing adver tisements therefor) by the Cyclists Publishing company, 1813 North Six teenth street, Philadelphia. The exec utive committee has not authorized this publication, Its own handbook (now ready for distribution) being the only thing of the kind having the sanction of tho managers of the meet. FASTEST IN THE WORLD. Splendid Hun of tho Reading's river to Atlantic City--Avcrngcd Seventy JUiles nn Hour. Tho fastest regular train In the world was yesterday (July 2) put Into ser vice on tho Reading's Atlantic City line, and for the opening day the com pany scored a rare triumph in a phe nomenal run, making the entire dis tance from Camden to the Bhore In 48 minutes, or at an average speed of 70 miles an hour. The run was made In 4 minutes less thnn the regular sched ule, but so evenly and smoothly did tho train glide over the solid road-bed that nobody on board, except profes sional railroad men, know what a record-breaking run was being made. The new train Is scheduled to carry passengers from this city to the shoro in CO minutes. Of that time olght min utes are allowed for tho ferry to Cam den and transfer to the cars there, leaving 52 minutes for the run of D5'i miles to Atlantic City. The boats leave Chestnut and South streets, In this city, at 3.40 p. m., and the train Is scheduled to leave Camden at 3.48, ar riving at Atlantio City at 4.40. RECORD-BREAKING RUN BEGAN. A slight delay at the ferry made the train 2V minutes late In leaving Cam den, and It was just 3.50 when En gineer Charles Fahl pulled the throttlu valvo of the big Baldwin compound engine No. 1027, and began the record breaking run. There were live cars In tho train, a Pullman, a combination and three ordinary passenger cars. All Ave cars were filled with passengers. Tho run through the outskirts of Camden, over tho West Jersey tracks, and through near-by villages, wns necessarily made at a slightly reduced rate of speed; but by the time Strat ford, 10 miles out, was reached, the train was literally flying. There wus no perceptible let up until the meadows on the other side of Pleasantvlllo were reached, nnd a few minutes later the train glided Into the Atlantio City depot at 4.38, one and a half minutes ahead of the schedule time, and 48 minutes after leaving Camden, having made the run nt an average speed of 70 miles an hour. NEARLY 00 MILES AN HOUR. While the 4 minutes were mado up all along tho route there were sections when a speed of nearly 90 miles an hour was reached. According to the regular schedulo the seven miles from Brlgantlne Junction to Pleasantvlllo are made In flvo minutes, or at a speed of 84 miles an hour. The 20 miles from Wlnslow Junction to Pleasantvllle ure scheduled for 21 minutes, or 74.28 miles an hour, and In this run It Is safe to say that the speed was nearly, It not quite, at tho rato of 80 miles an hour for that distance, as it covers tho sec tion of the road best adapted for fast running.
