I MINNEAPOLIS , Minn. . April 15. [ Special
jjto Tim Bin : . ] The Minneapolis team starts
! but without any preliminary practice to
kpeok of , nnd if it fails to make a good suovV-
ng the llrat month Us many friends will note
) o groatlv disappointed. Dut that it will bo
n the light to stay was evidenced by Its
vorlt in exhibition games this week. In ud-
lltion to the lack of practice It is further
tampered by the loss of a pitcher. Bcatln
J vas assigned to play In this city and ordered
to report for duty April 1 , and money sent
Dim. Jp to date ho has not put in an ap-
tpearanco. Mumicnr Morton has asked lor
another pitcher , but ns yet has not filled up
Iho holo.
( The fnns hero nro well pleased with the
team. So far they nave proved free hitters
and good fielders but rathnr careless on tbo
base lines. This fault , ho-.vover , can bo
remedied as the season grows older and moro
team work is injected Into the club ? . Divan ,
tvho was the great unknown , tias proved a
wonder. Ho Is n clover backstop , a torrllio
bitter uiul runs the bases well. Newman ,
tbo center Holder , Is from the coast and is
nblo to got away from tbo plate quicker than
Any man In the league. Hosidos ho is a
strong and accurate thrower. Parrott , the
third baseman , Is another Pacific coast pho-
homonon , und with his work so far as a cri
terion , ho will give all other guardsmen of
Iho third sack cards nnd spades playing that
position. Franco , the loft handed twirler ,
has a puzzling delivery ana lots of speed ( era
a soutbpaw ,
The other clayors are all moro or lots well
Itnown to the Western league.
Clmrllo llnnvor Signed Comlltlonnlly.
Charlie Hoover , the old Kansas City
catcher , was signed by the Omaha * yester
day and will nrrlvo In Omahn today. Hoover
bas been signed conditionally if h keeps
straight ho Is certain of n permanent berth ,
tut on the Hrst violations of any of the club
rules bo will bo sent adrift. In condition ,
and at himself , Hoover is ono of the best
catchers in tt.o country. Ho Is also n tlmclv
liitlor nnd n heady ball player , and It has
boon his had habits alone that has kept him
out of the fastest company In the business.
.Ho comes to Omaha under the promise of the
best of conduct , and if this holds good there
is nothing to Interfcro with his being the
tar backstop of the leaguo.

Kansas City Journal : Charley Snyder ,
the ox-Cincinnati catcher , is scheduled by
President Williams to umpire the opening
came at Kansas City , bnydor Is a good ono ,
and as far as can bo learned all the Western
league umpires nro.
Like a meteor ho Hashed across the hori
zon. No longer will ' -The Whlikers Broth
ers" appear together on the Western carpet.
Toledo has kissed poorMcGroiror along , long
farewell. Ho will remain on the club roll in
charge of tbo privileges , however.
President Stout is infusing a llttlo Kansas
City life into the Omaha dry bones. Ho
proposes to have the base ball season open
therewith n grand parndo , n la K. C.
Kansas City Journal. What's that ! Why ,
Ralph didn't know bo was alive until ho
located hero.
Base ball is essentially a hot weather
sport. It can not rlpon in the north as early
as the middle of April. Hero are already
cloven postponed iramos , with the season
only three days old. If the managers were
not unduly anxious to pinch the public's
coed dollars there would bo no thought of
opening ball playing before the month of
May.
St. 1'au ) has secured now base ball grounds
In a location caiy of access , and it is probu-
blo that the "hoodoo" of the Saintly City is
now removed. The grounds are situated
near University avenue , between Dale and
St. Albana streets , but they will hardly bo
put Into shapa before the middle of the sea
son. It will take some time to prepare tbo
Hold and to erect the grand stand and fences.
In the meantime the old ball park on tno
west side will bo used and It Is altogether
likely that all the homo games during the
first of the season will bo played there.
Pioneer Press : Manager Thompson Is very
proud of nls team and , so far as ho can Judge.
feels that ho has a winning outfit in hand.
Cunningham , ho says , U as good ns any of
them In the points , and ho also looks upon
Ward ns a "south-paw" phenomenon. Ho Is
also in love with his catchers , and says that
ho would not exchange. Sutcllffo for any man
in the league. Ho thinks Sutcllffo Is not
only safe and certain behind the bat , but bo
is also u splendid thrower and a daisy at the
bat. Mr. Thompson fools very confident
abouJL the prospects for the season , and loons
for a largo sized boom in base ball this sea
son.

The Minneapolis and St. Paul teams , after
being frozen up for two weeks , finally got a
chance to piny nn exhibition catno at Minne
apolis on Tuesday. Both loams put up a very
good game. The Millers outbatted the
Apostles , making thirteen hits off Cunning
ham , Wadsworth mid Kcofo lo nine off
SwnrUol nnd Franco , but the Apoitlos won
the amo through the fielding errors of the
Millers , every cue of which was costly.
Franco pitched the most effectively for Min
neapolis , nnd Wadsworth , whom the papers
any Is not bigger than u imnuto , did the best
work for St. Paul. Motz , the first baseman
of the Apostles , bhowod up as a great hitter ,
twice driving the boll over the Minneapolis
venter Hold fence for a homo run. Alvord
nnd Holland both played good ball for St.
Paul. Tbo Minneapolis fans foil in love
with Catcher DIxon , who did the backiton-
ping well aud found the ball for lureo hits ,
of which two were doubles. Newman , the
Millers' crack outfielder , sustained the ropu-
tatlou be brought from the coast of being a
good hitter , lining out three hits.
