Caylor Writes About the Ghara-
pton Boston Baseball Club.
VICTORIOUS FOR THREE YEARS.
Interesting- Gossip About tile Greatest Ag
gregation of llnll Player In tho World.
Teams Tltnt Havo Captured tho Coveted
Pennant In Ydnrs Gone Ily.
For the third time In succession the Bos
tons havo won the League pennant. For
the sixth time. too. out of the 18 rears of
the National league's oxlstenoe the Boston
club has onptured the championship. These
six victories occurred In 1877, 1878. 1888, 1801,
Btivetts. Nichols.
Staler. Gastright,
TIIE BOSTON CLUB'S riTCHERS.
1893 and 1893. TheChleaRos are an equal
winner with the Bostons, having claimed
the pennant in 1878 the first year of the
League 1880, 1681, 1883, 1885 and 1886. It
has been seven years since Uncle Adrlanap
olis has tasted the sweets of final victory,
though on several occasions tho cup was
held to his lips, but dashed to earth just as
he Inhaled the Intoxicating aroma. Seven
years was the period allotted to Jacob to
Berve for Rachael. Anson knows therefore
how hard It was for Jacob to wait all that
time for his bride. But let us hope that
"Anse ' will not nave to serve yet another
seven years for his reward, as Jacob did.
I saw Captain Ansou last week, just aft
er his reorganized Colts had won three suc
cessive games, and he told "mo with all the
sincerity of a World's fair fakir that his
team, as now organized, was entirely satis
factory to him, and that with it he ought
next year to win tho League championship,
Of course he expects Ryan to be well again
In 1691, and that will mako his outfield
consist of Ryan, Lynch and Wilmot; his
infield, Decker, Irwin, Dahleu nnd Campe;
his pitchers, Clausen, McGill, Abbey and
nutchlson, and his catchers, Lange, Kit
tridgo and Schriver. The team, as thus
constituted and as it is now plnyinir ball.
should surely make a bid for u place high
up In tho lists. My impression Is that
Decker will be a fixture at first, and that in
spite of all tho old man's bluft he has
played his last season of regular ball.
But to return to my first subject. Out of
tho 18 championships of the National
league Boston and Chicago have claimed
12in equal division. The other six have
been won by tho New York, Providence,
Detroit and Brooklyn towns. New York
made successive "wins" in 1883 and 1889.
Tho Brooklyns took the flag in 1890, De
troit in 1BS7 and Providence in 1879 nnd 1881.
The present Boston team has practically
been playing Its second season with almost
unbroken ranks. Quinu Is tho missing
member of last year's team. Otherwise
tho composition of this season's champion
team is what it was last year, with Merritt
and Gastright added to the battery depart
ment. A oriel sketch of tho members of
tho team will not be uninteresting in this
connection.
Nichols has been the club's star pitcher.
Ho won the nickname of "Kid" whilo In
the Western league, where his youth, cou-
pled with his great success, earned for him
that title. When Selee came to Boston to
munago the team, he brought Nichols
along, and the latter been the Boston's
winning' pitcher over since. IIo is strictly
temperate, takes good care of bis physical
powers and always bus his club's interest
deeply at heart.
Stivetts also went to Boston from the
west. He Is one of Comlskey's pupils nnd
made his first great reputation as a mem
ber of tho St. Loui3 Browns. He is a young
man of fine physlquo and Bhared with Ku-
sie the honor until this season of being one
of the swiftest pitchers in the country. Ho
has not been so effective this season as last
and was one of the four players who re
cently appeared on tho ground at Cincin
nati in a state of Intoxication. There is
no doubt that StlvcttB' indulgence in liquor
has lessened his elrectiveuess this season.
Staley, the third of Boston's last sea
son's trio of pitchers, has been almost a
complete, failure this year. His work In
1893 was excellent, and when the Bostons
secured his release from the Pittsburgs be
had made a reputation second to no other
pitcher in the League. Staley, too, has let
dissipation interiere witn ms worn lately
and- is not entitled to any of the credit his
team may have won by capturing the
League pennant.
Gastright, the fourth pitcher of tho club,
is one of the mysteries of the season of
1893. Last year he was a "floater," being
engaged and released on nn average of once
a mouth. He started In the present season
about the Batno way, nnd when at last the
Bostons gave him n trial, whilo Stivetts
and Staley were almost useless, the other
clubs realized that the champions were in-
dflsuerate straits. lluthere the un

jxpectea Happened.- IFastrlght fumed up
,n winning form, lie pitched in nine auc
;esaivo victories and shared Bostou euthu
iajmi with Nichols.
Of tho ontoheni Charley Bennett Is the
oldest and most widely known. Yours ago
when he was In his prime and a member
of the Detroit club be stood at the head of
the catchers of the land. But Benuett be-
lonus to the passing stars. His work for
the Bostons this season has not been good
and it is problematical whether he will be
a member of.next year's team. Bennett Is
one of the veterans who has outlasted most
of his contemporaries by reason of the ex
cel I' nt care hJyuhvavs took of himself. He
Uier still playing of 10 wno
co for the National league
nzel Is another veteran, but
i service fewer years than lien-
as Dreitlee and will tetania la
llostnn unifom lor lw. lie, too, is n
man who nudds all forms of d'slpntlon,
which largt ly accounts for his long wrvlce
on the di.'iiioiid.
Merritt is young and made his reputa
tion during the early part of t ho season.
The Louisvllles had him on their team last
year, bnt didn't think enough of bis play
ing to sign him in the spring. The Bostons
gave him a chance, and he rushed to tho
front in the first month ns one of the mmt
successful catchers in the League. He led
the Bostons In batting nnd excelled In his
field work. Unfortunately he was Injured
in one of the tnldseason games and laid up
for some weeks. Since his recovery he has
nob done no well.
Tucker is considered one of the best first
basemen living and also the noisiest coach
cr. He never lacks for interest in lils olub's
success, nnd his recent drunken escapade at
Cincinnati while in uniform is deeply if
gretted by all who like earnest ball play
ing. Tucker will surely be punished by tho
League at its annual meeting next month.
Bobby Lowe was brousht from Canada
by tho Bostons when the Brotherhood re
bellion made such havoc among that club's
men. He turned out ft winning card from
the very start and won a host of friends by
reason of his modest demeanor and steady
habits and good ball playing. Last year he
played in the outfield, but when Qulnn was
released Lowo was placed at second base.
Though the position was new to him and is
ono of tho hardest to play on tho diamond,
he has filled It most creditably.
Herman Lonir is a Chicaaoan and beenn
bis career in the west. He, too, is ono of the
stars who sprang up during the Brother
hood revolt, lie Is a peculiar fielder. Ono
day he will make the most marvelous
stops, and the next his work may bo miser
able. But Long is what. is known as a
winner, and his occasional dumps are more
than offset by good play at other times.
In NaBh the Bostons have the peerless
third baseman of tlio country. No one dis
putes tho title with him. He may havo
had his equal when Denny and Sutton
wero at their best, but In those modern
days ho stands alone in excellence. Billy
is a Virginian nnd possesses those gentle
manly, chivalrous characteristics which
have so long distinguished the men of the
Old Dominion.
Hugh Duffy ranks ns'one of tho very
best out uud out batsmen in tho country.
Nearly all the leading heavy hitters of tho
past have been largo men, llko Anson,
Kelly, Dalrymple, Brouthers, Jones, White,
Ewing nnd O'Rourke men who have in
their turn stood at tho head of lists. But
DUFFY. MEniUTT.
M'CAIITIIY. ' TUCKER.
Duffy nnd Hamilton of Philadelphia havo
been exceptions to the rule. Both are
small in stature.though stocklly built, and
they rate among the leaders of tho League
batsmen. Duffy is also an excellent fielder
and brilliant base runner.
McCarthy, llko Duffy, is a little man, but
a good "sticker." He is also known as n
"tricky player." In this last respect ho and
Duffy work like a team. They are together
in the batting order and aid one another
more iu making runs than any other two
bnll players In active service. Dully and
McCarthy have done more than any other
couple on the Boston team to keep the
champion hip in that city, nnd for this rea
son they are always spoken of in ono con
nection as u they were Siamese twins.
Clifford Carroll is another veteran of tho
team. In time served on the diamond he
uuirauitH an out jseunoLc iiuanasirequenr
ly been referreil to as Grandfather Carroll.
He made his best record while a member of
the Providence team some years ago. Last
year he played in tit. Louis, nnd theyear be
fore ho was a member of Anson's team,
but he has done better work fortheBostons
this season tliuu he did for either of the
other two clubs.
Carroll's great weakness has also been
his fondness for liquor. That vice pulled
him down from, his former well earned rep
utation as a player. But this year by care
fully refraining from even an occasional in
dulgence ho has returned to his old time
"form" and given Boston good service.

In HwitisrlnH around the circle dnrlng the
rrhecllng season an amateur bicyclist who
fides for glory and the goods and chattels
that may happen to go with It strikes
tome prizes that are fearfully and wonder
fully made. It Is not at all st i ange for a
bevy of crack riders while en lour to be
dazzled one day by a prize list studded with
diamonds, and to be overcome with emo
tion next day at the news that the list is
populated by live pigs or blllygoats.
W. F. Murphy, the veteran amateur ana
hero of many a hard fought race, whs re
cently led to talk about some of the odd
jirlzes he had seen contested for. "The
first time I ever heard or a town lot neing
offered nsn prize was In 1891 nt Peoria,
Ills.," ho said. "Zimmerman, Windle,

in a mile hnndlcap, and Price won the race
and a deed for tho lot, which was a val-

nable one In Chicago. The Park Avenue
wheelmen of Philadelphia have probably
offered more strange prizes than any other
club. A lawn mower, a laundry bill for a
year and a ton of Ice are sample prizes con
tested for at their meets.
"Tho strangest thing they ever sprung
on the bicyclists, however, was their offer
of a coffin nnd a burial plot to the winner
of ono race Not a rider nt tho meet pos
sessed nerve enough to have anything to
do with such a grave undertaking. There
were no entries for the coffin, and no fu
neral procession raced for It and the burial
lot.
"At St. Louis last May the boys plnnncd
a little surpriso In tho prizo line for George
K. Barrett of Chicago. It was announced
that tho prize in one race was to bo select
ed, but every man entered except Barrett
knew what the victor would get. So when
Barrett swung Into the stretch nnd began
his sprint every man pretended to be push
ing pedals for all he was worth, but Bar
rett's mind was fixed longingly upon the
glorious possibilities of the unknown prize,
and after putting up a heafffbrcaking raAr
he crossed the tape a proud winner. The
unknown prizo had long whiskers and
greeted him with a deep 'n-a-a-ahl' It was
a billygont.
"At Rome, N. Y In May, 1801, some nov
el prizes were given to participants in a pa
rade. Among them were a dozen photo
graphs for the handsomest man in line, a
washtub and wringer for the newest mar
ried man, nnd a set of false teeth for the
man who needed them most."
A full list of tho odd prizes that have
been won by wheelmen would make n
volume of very amusing reading. Accord
ing to a French paper, tho following prizes
were recently given In a race for amateurs:
First, a cycling suit, second, a book on
horticulture; third, 10 rolls of wall paper;
fourth, 100 packages of cigarette paper. At
Cleveland recently a live pig was one of the
trophies captured by a victorious rider.
The prizes that seem to be particularly
popular with amateur wheelmen are tbuo
pianos, $-250 diamonds and $150 bicycles, or
such a mero trill ens a team of fast trotting
horses and a Windsor trap recently offered
as the star prize of the Baltimore meet. A
ton of coal, too, Is never refused.
Arthur A. Zimmerman, the king or all
amateurs nnd winner o the unprecedented
number of 100 races this season, has taken
into camp at least $12,000 worth of prizes
since the' wheeling campaign opened. It is
Interesting to compare his winnings with
those of Harry Wheeler, the king ot the
Cosh Prize league. Professional Wheeler,
who Is riding a wheel for cash principally
and glory secondarily, has only netted
about one-fourth the amount represented
by the pianos, diamonds, watohee, horses,
etc, won by Amateur Zimmerman, who,
In tho eyes ot the League ot American
Wheelmen, rides for glory pure and sim-
SOME QUEER LTVB TROPH1KS,
ola. Wheeler has onlv won about M.000 to
Zimmerman's fia.utw, despite the fact that
there were no Sangers, Windles, Tylers
and JohusonB in the Cash Prise league to
prevent him from winning a rioh first prize
now and then.
At the World's fair meet alone Zimmer
man secured prises valued at $1,000, while
II. C. Tyler capturtd a collection of trophies
valued at 1605. During his career Zimmer
man has won at least six horses and enough
pianos to stock a musio store. Not long
ago he had seven of these harmonious In
struments In his possession. At Milwau
kee, the home of Sanger, his most formid
able rival, Zimmerman added two dia
monds, each worth S250, to his collection ot
precious stones' in a single day. For the
first time America has had a professional
circuit this season, but despite the fact that
liln-nil cash prizes have been given the
half do.on leading professional wheelmen
have not won anywhere near the amount ot
money represented in the prizes captured
by the same n-mlwr of amateur riders.
