Rack In 1891, in the summer time, a young chap with red hair and a face spotted all over with polka dots, was catching for the Leighton club of some little league in Pennsylvania. A travelling man, who was a friend of John Chapman, manager of the Louisville club of the old American "association, sent John a tip that this catcher was worth going after. John didn't hestitate, but sent Hugh Jennings a check for $100, with instructions to report at once. Hughia thought it must be a joke, but he, found tha check to be genuine, so he reported.' To make a jump from a regular bush league club to the major league, on such short notice, kind of took Hughie'a nerve, but then he figured that ho had the 100 bucks and they would have to give him a chance to work it out. This was the begin-j ntng of the -roroafkable career of Hugh, Jennings, one ot the greatest I infielders" and batsmen the game ever,' had and, later, one of the' ablest! managers In tha game. 1 t-anstad at First Sack. , Hughie'a days as a catcher e.ided the moment he donned the uniform of the Colonels, for Manager Chapman didn't just know what to do with the carmine-headed busher after he had him. Taylor, the regular first baseman of the team, was out that day with an injury and Chapman planked Jennings on the initial sack and in that position, on June 7, 1891, the great Jennings began his) march to the highest pinnacle In the great national pastime. The first big league hurler who faced Hughle wasn't very big a little bit - of a left-hander named Madden was the hurler. Louisv.Ue made only four hits off him and the recruit managed to got one of them. Jn his next game Hughle made thrfi' safe drives in four times up off the curves of the peerless Jack "Dumplings" McMahon anl from that moment the boy with tha strawberry colored hair was a success. Deal Dazzler at Shortstop, H. Jennings found his true position when he landed in the position of shortstop. The moment he began playing that position he made a hit and columns were devoted every week to the brilliant playing the It is about time for winter suits, overcoats, stockings, etc. A few days like -thee will make the boys uncomiort-s able in their summer togs. r Boys $1.50 Blouses Stockings for Boys Mail a of splendid quality, light or dark pal-tern percales.

From 1892 until 1900, anyone claiming that a better shortstop than Jennings could 1 found in civilized baseball would be to'-'ind erazy, for Hugh Jennings, the soar-lct-plumed Hibernian if ihe oid Oriole team that won threw pennants in a row for Baltimore, was the choice of all the knowing fans of that period and every one of them, to a man,' singled out H. Jennings as about the lust word in shortstop-ping. Hughie waa . brilliant, dashing player and his, name is listed with the great p,r'ormers in that position. The name of Jennings la linked with the names of Honus Wagner, Jack Glaascock and Edward McKean aa the only shortstop of the game, or in the history of the a;ame. who had a life's batting average of .S00 or better. Hughie likes to ttl the atory of how he had the pleasure of facing the great John Clarkaon in the earlier days of his career. Clarkaon, who was known as the "Wiaard of the Diamond" and easily the equal of Christy Mathewsen. in 189! had a DO-ijt game wall rt hand. In fact he had dispose! of 28 batsmen gout in the ninth, Clarkaon pretence of a base hit. The twenty-seventh batsman was a tow-beaded youth named Jennings, who had been brilliantly upsetting- things around the circuit. The great Clark-sen wanted that game to go on record -jm a no-bit affair.. With two men gone In the ninth, Clarkaon prepared to do thlng to the youngster at bat The first ball pitched, Hughie cracked out for two bases. Clarkaon disposed of the mr batsman easily. Yea, Hughie Jennings will be missed by tjia fans of Detroit, for many seasons he was the attraction until his popularity was dimmed brother stars, but for several years people attended the games only to sfe the red-headed leader work as only Hughie Jennings couH work to lead his men on to victory.' He has had his share of the plaudits which go to the victor, he has absorbed about aa much of tbe royal , purple of the great national 'pastime" as any player or manager, the game ever had. Yes, the fans of old Detroit like Hughie fo; his aggressiveness, for, his earnestness, for his honesty-of purpose and for his red hair.
