GIANTS OPEN SEASON
HEBE IH A WCTOW
Matty, Murray and Merkle Do
Deeds of Baseball Valor at
Polo Grounds.
SUPERBAS THE VICTIMS
Crowd Fails to Storm the Roomy
Stadium, but Those on Hand
Enjoy a Fast and
Snappy Game.
Christopher Kathewson, better
as Matty; "Re?-!" Murray .in?i T-'i.-i Merkle
saved the formal opening of ?he *s
League baf>eball s?seson In this cits
Polo Grounds yeaterday from dr
ne??. The crowd which Jammed Wsshlng
ton rar"k, Brooklyn, on April U, \>
pennant r.? ? begsa was **onsplouous
It? absence. The monster ?tadium
the lee of Coogan'a Bluff, which will seal
forty thousand p. rs??ns. was hardl!
full, and the glamour and exeitem?
an opening daj game w? n lacking But the
(riants von In clean ?it l ihlon, snd then
was enough enthusiasm t?> lndleat? thit
the National League champions
warm place In the h.-arts of the "fans."
The ?score was ?* to 8, .an?! it is Important
to relate that the Brooklyn. BupCTbas, who
won two out of three games from the
Giants acrops the bridge last week, were
the victims. As It happened, they
the same number of hits?eleven?and the
same number of errors?three?as did M -
Graw's men, but runs are the things that
count, and In runs they were foi
of tteing the ?core. They worked herd and
atarted two or three promising look*
lie?, but Matty was always equal t?> the
call, and ehow??d his amazing skill when it
was most needed in a way to satisfy the
? majority of those present that he Is still
"king of 'em all." It was not the number
of hits, but the way they were parcelled
out, that made all the difference in the
world between victory and defeat. It may
be said in passing that Matty gave only
one ba?e on balls, and this little oversight
did not come until two men were out In the
ninth Inning.
This In a measure tells of Mathewson's
part of a game that was Interesting and
lively from end to end. but the deeds of
Murray and Merkle must be recorded. The
right fielder of the New York team set ?he
crowd shouting for a full three minutes
on two occasions by remarkable throws,
which cut down one runner at the. plate and
another at third base, and which put an
end fo vigorous assgults that might have
been productive of runs. Fred Merkle also
brought the crowd upstanding by a mighty
drive to the fence in deep left centre, on
which he raced around the bases for a
home run. It was one of the longest and
cleanest hits seen in many a day, and, ex?
cept for the fence, there? Is no telling* how
far the ball would have travelled. It is Sel?
dom that a home run Is ma?1e tt the Polo
Grounds, except when the ball goes Into
one of the stands, which made Merkle s
performance the more notable.
Nap Rucker lasted only one Inning in the
box for Brooklyn, and In that time al?
lowed three hits, Including Merkle's home
run. "Silent John" Hummel batted for him
In Brooklyn's half of the second Inning,
In the hope of continuing a rally which re?
sulted In one run, and would have 1 ? en
worth more with any pitcher except Matty
on the firing line. Schardt took Rocker's
Mace, an?l was hit rather freely when hits
counted most. Ills team mates were a bit
unsteady In th'- field, but, on the whole,
they backed him up with excellent support,
Daly, In particular, making three .
catches !n left held, one of which was cf
the sensational order.
Everything conspired against a big crowd
and the usual enthusiasm of an opening
day. The gloom resulting irom the harrow?
ing disaster to the Titanic had Its ?fTect,
to ?ay mithin?-** of the postponement from
Thursday, because of the miniature d
and the weather Itself, which was as chilly
as November, as blusterly as March au i
as lowering as April. It was not surpris? ,
lng, then, that yawning spaces of ?
seats could be seen here and there in grand I
stand and Moachsra
The Catholic Protectory band was t-n <
hand and did Its best to Hv? i. up the pro
ceedings. Police Con Waldo also;
was present, in the absence of Mayor <;_y- :
nor, to make the presentation speech when
Matty received an automobil.
"fans" of the city and to throw oui the .
first ball, a little formality which
everybody missed. ,
John J. McGraw was one other that made :
his presence felt. He has no love f<?r Pin- i
neran, the umpire, and showed It In wildly '
objecting to two close decisions. Finn ran
showed that he shared McGras
hy first ordering the little Napoleon to the
bench and then to the clubhouse. Me?"raw
also was conspicuous tefore the gama
when he received from his friends a huge I
floral horseshoe twice the height of him- I
self.
It may be said In passing that the "fans" :
sided with McGraw and against Finn?'.m
In two or three of the latter'? decisions, as
the howls of derision that went up plainly
Indicated.
"Larry Doyle, captain of the Giants, was
added to the hospital list yesurduy. fie
was limping from an accident In Boston
and Joined Fletcher on tho bench. The ab
?ene? of these two players left Quite a hole j
in the Infield, but McGraw sent Bhafei to
second base and little Groh to shorts! ip.
The last named made one or two plays
which showed why he is still with the team
and why he Is likely to stick.
The crowd cheered when Matty took his
place In the box and Police Commissioner
Waldo threw out the first bal'. It cheered
again when Herzog ?hot a grounder from
Moran's bat to Merkle for ti.e first out.
Daubert then flied to t?r-afer and
Smith's Infield hit pulled Herzog out of
position for a throw, he died trying to
Otee', wso.nd base.
The Giants made a good beginning In
their half, scoring three runs on two ?in
gles. an error by Daubert and Merkle's
mighty drive for four bases. Devore
scratched a hit as a starter, took second
on a wild throw and third when Daubert
dropped Stark's throw of Shafer's gr-?und?
er. The last named stole se? ond and both
runners ?cored, after Snodgrass struck out.
when Red Murray hammered a single to
?centre field. The New York right fielder
was caugfit stealing second, but Merkle
stepped up and drove the ball to the fence
In deep left centre for a clean home run.
Herzog made the third out on a grounder
to Stark
, Matty had to dig his way out of a deep
hols In the second inning, an?l d.d so at the
?xpense of only one run. North?n and Daly
Spened with clean hits, and the former
icor?-*d when Hersog ran In to snap up s
ovesk tap by Smith and missed the hall.
Daly was forced at third on Stark? bunt
to Matty, but "Bit Six" was still in
eulties, with two runners oa bases and only
one out "Erwin perish??) at first by the
way of Shafer and Merkle, while ?i-jrn
mel, who batted for Hucker, could not get
the ball beyond Matty.
With two out In New "i oik's half
Mathewson singled and Devore doubled to
left field, but both were lefl v.., Shal r
wa? thrown out at first by Downs.
The SuperbaB scored their second run in
the third Inning on errors by Merkle and
Mafty. With Moran out, Daubert went all
the way t?. seco?ad when Merkle fielded his
grounder, but made a bad throw to first.
Herzog then ran over to the ?>
brilliant catch of a high foul, but Matty
threw the ball to l_<* graudstand in Held?,

Giants and Yankees to
Clash for Titanic Fund
Game Will Be Played at the
Polo Grounds at Three
o'Clock To-morrow.
John T. Brush, chief owner <*>f the New
York club of the National League, de?
clared his wllIingntBSI last night to open
the Polo Grounds to-morrow afternoon f?-?r
an exhibition game between the Giants and
the Yankees. The receipts will go to the
fund which Is being raised to help the sur?
vivors of the ill fated Titanic. The ?rame
will be called at 3 o'clock, and It was de?
clared that the regular teams of both club?
would take the field. Frank Farrell, of the
Yankees. 1? In hearty accord with the plan
and will welcome the chance to meet M? -

Th?*? "'fon.??." too. will bo glad to see th*
teams in action In 1??'?1, when the Ath?
letic-?, and Chicago Cuta battled for the
world's title, the Giants and the Yankee?
fought out a post season series here that
aroused widespread interest. Mcilraw's
men won by four games to two. The prom?
ise of an Interesting struggle and the
worthy cause should attract a crowd that
will test the capacity of the park.
"Go home. Murray, and give us a
chance!" called a Brooklyn rooter In the
I fifth Inning at the Polo Grounds yesterday,
when Murrey made a perfect throw from
deep right field to the plate in time to . ?
Moran coming home from second on Daly's
! single. The same cry was ralse?l In the
?h, when Murray's '?mod right arm
Stood between Brooklyn and the plate and
nailed Daubert at third ixtse on a long
single to right centre by Northern _1
?and his bat counted ?till m?-rc prominently,

Brooklyn "fans." His csteh of s
from the bat of Meyers in the fourth fi
when be fell sprawling but held on t.? the
ball, was a fine piece of work and was
heartily applauded by th? crowd
The crowd was glad to see th? Giants
take the field In their ?pick and ?pan white
uniforms, with the narrow black stripes.
While the funer?al Mack uniforms of last
season reminded one ?>f the triumphs of
li??ri they also brought to mind J. Tranklln
Baker and the reverse? of l'?ll.
Ju/li-lng from the number of ??**?-,??? -who
passed throu_h the ** ;|t| o'clock turnstile?
yesterday, and so voted for an early ?tart
in beginning th? games, it will not fak?
long to satisfy th? club that th? late start
is not popular.
Th? crowd wss rooting for ?**r?">h all
through the game. an?l when h? dro\e out
his single In th? eighth Inr.lng he was
ch?er?d to the echo. That Groh was caught
off first ? moment later mattered not. for
the Giants won. anvway.
Just before MeGraw was o?d?red to th?
cluhhoiise for orating to Kinnernn h? shout?
ed : "I'm going to umpire ;tt the elephant's
ball gam? at th? chcus to-nlRht. and I will
give them an Imitation of Kinr.cran."
Chief Meyers voiced hi? opinion on foul
balls In the ?Afth Inning to the amusement
? f the crowd. With Moran and I'aul^rt on
second and first "?Red" Smith cut the ball

DOOIN SHRINKS FROM KNIFE
Operation Advised, but Manager
of the Phillies Demurs.
lity Telegraph t?. Tic* Tril -
Philadelphia, April lt.?The condition of
Charley Dootn, manager Of the I'hlllle?. Is
?0 serious that si!rg<-ons have a?lvise?l that
he consent to un immediate operation.
Dooin resolutely says that he will not Sub?
mit tO th.. knife, that his tr?u,ibl<? is one
that bothers him fre?iuently throughout th?
t-piion and that he will recover from hla
illness as soon as he has a chance to re?t.
In New York an operation was advised,
but the peppery little manager would not
submit. The club physician brought him
home to-day and wir?*d Dr. John B. Dearer,
the noted surgeon, t?> meet him at Dootn's
house. After tin? examination Dr. Deafer
said that tho catcher was suffering from
what Is known as Intussusception of a
twisted bowel, if the kink does not rotas
there Is danger of gangrene an?l an opera?
tion would be to?? late. Dooln may Im
forced to give in should he grow WOTSS
during tlie night.
It was this dlsSQSS that killed Mike Pow?
ers after tho opening game of tie sssson
in iMt, and fears are entertained that
Dooln bei-ause of his refusal i?? undergo
the operation may jeopardies Ids own
chances. Catchers are particularly sus
eeptlbls p, such a condition, end Dootna
admits that after a hard game ho some?
i suffers Intensely because of the pain
in his side. His family want him to sub?
mit to the knife, but he Is still firm to?
night In his belief that other rneasures will
pull him through without surgery.

Paddy Callaban, who in better known a?
"Irish Paddy," is out with a challenge to

It I? a matter of satisfaction to the ad?
mirers of "Battling" Hurley to see that the
Veteroa "thunderbolt" Is striking in his old

National Sporting Club on Thursday night
whteh brought the spectators back to his

It Is the jteneral opinion of hoxlns; enthu
SlSStfl that "Knockout'- Brown will soon
bar? a rival for his popularity In the Boysf
Club of the Kast Side. Willie Chan'ller, one

JERSEY CITY VICT
Toronto Loses Opening Game of
International League.
'FANS' BRAVE CHILL BLASTS
Gingery Fielding by Skeeters
and Agler's Catch the
Features of Game.
Five thniiaand Jersey t'tty "fans" braved
the chill air of yesterday afternoon to see
their home players defeat Toronto In the
oper.lni: same of the International League
pennant race by a score of 2 to I.
Mayor II otto Wittpenn of Jersey City
started the aeason by pitching the first
ball, a wid? e ,,.?>, whleh went ah<>nt three
feet OUtSldS "f the plate. I'rettv nearly
every politician of prominence In Jersey
City >?a*' at the game, and a good many
women, too, who didn't seem to nilr.d th"
Mid br.-ez? that blew over the grandstand.
i side secured a run In the opening
Inning. After that it becaUM an Interest?
ing contest, MeHale was In the box for
the Jer.e-cv r?jtv team, and sftST giving Mc
?"otinell. ?he first Toronto player to fee
him, three t\ Ide or.??* he settled down an?)
at ruck him out Stuw. the next man tip,
poled a bel liner to d"?-?,? ?-entre, ordinarily
good tot t.\ie bac., bul the horn? players
(ol . y -it. ri in handling it and Bhaw crossed
the plate for the first run ??f the game.
Breen, the first home player to face
Mueller, ?he visitors' t Wrier, went out on
? fly to Bhaw, Agier, who followed, made
three wthi swings and then s-it down. Bar?
rows, the new centre fielder, walked, and
Deinlnger laced out a sizzler to centre,
^haw threw It to Jordan at first, and the
latter threw over Bradley* head at third,
Barrow s scampering home.
In the sixth Harrows wa.? again passed,
lu- advanced on Jsnvrtn'i single and ?cored
???n Roach's slashing hit to centre. Wells
followed with another single, filling the
teses, -tnd McHale, who followed, struck
nut and ended the Inning.
Neither side scored after that, although
In the closing inning It looked like trouble
for Jersey City, when, with two out, Meyer
hit t?_ the right field fence for what looked
Ilk?- a homer for a minute. Quick work
on the part of the horn?* players, however,
got the ball back tn time to hold the To?
ronto player at second. Hally, who fol?
lowed him. fanned and ended the game.
The game as a whole was well played,
and after ?orne of the rough edges have
worn off It looks as though the Jersey City
team will be a strong ?ontender for the
pennant.

Crushes Buffalo in Thrilling Ten
Inning Battle.
Newark ?got away to a flying start in the
Interna?tto_MSl League race in the opening
game at Newark yesterday with George
?.tailing.'s Huffa'.o team, but had to go ten
Inning? to do It. The score waa 5 to ?. It
was Eddie Zimmerman? line drive a few
feet Inside the left field foul Une, with the
bases full and two out In the tenth, that
?n i the trick.
Klrkpatrlck was the first man up In
Newark's half of the tenth Inning, and
drew ? pasa. Hernard lall down a pretty
bunt, which put Kirk on second. Stulllngs
?wouldn't take a chance on t'y Seymour
and ordered four ball? for him. Then
Swaclna, one of the Indian*' heavy hitters,
waa hit by a pitched ball and filled the
base?. Hilly Zimmerman uncorked a Une
drive which had all Ute earmarks of a
hit, hut which waa snared by Truesdale.
Then came h-ddie Zimmerman's wallop,
an?l the game was over.
M'i.lMilty lost hia grip momentarily In
th?? third Inning, und Buffalo bundled five
hita in BUOOSSalon for their four runs. Out?
side of that >.e..slon the HiR??ns were never
dangerous, ami when Holmes relieved the
"Iron Man" in the eighth h?j had them at
hi? mercy. Newark fought along gamely,
ati'l when Bernard dropped a single over
second with the baaes full, acortng two
runs and tlclng the score In the seventh,
there wa.?i much Jubilation among the ten
thousand spectators who saw the game.
There were the usual opening ceremonies.
Mayor HanssMng pitched tho first ball, and

Three Blue and White Men In?

Be Out for Good.
Hai\_id waded through the Columbia
nine In a po?.?*ly played game on South
Field yesterday and amassed a t??tal of
eight runs to the Blue and White? four
For the greater part of the game the Crim?
son wee behind, but in the seventh and
eighth innings the team from Cambridge
tore thing? up with a v-ngeunoe and by
????me tinndy hitting, combine- with I'o'.um
bla error?, ?eoreri seven runs.
Clrii-h. the Columbia twlrler, was hit hard
In the ? losing frames, a home run drive by
< lark In th? eighth inning with the bsSSS
f'iil nettling the struggle.
Neither team played particularly well
in the field, each t-?le making four costly
erroi?. Columbia might have won in the
early innings, when Pelton was wild and
glvlnsr t?a?e? on balls right ,in?1 left, but
I he plnyer? were unabl* to connect for safe
lilt!, and many opportunities ?-.?re wasted.
Accident? plHyed a large part In th*?
g??n*, for two Columbia players were
forre,] to ?pilt altogether, and 1'lrieh was
bo badly ?pik*d in the fhlrd inning that It
was with difliriiMv ?hut be v.M.? able to

Just before T"lrl?-h WS S hurt Ferguson,
who herid'-d the Columbio tuning list, was
hit on the left ear by one of F**!torf s curves
i and was momentarily stunned He had to
leave the diamond. A peculiar feature of
the accident was that Ferguson was ?->n?-e
on the Harvard nine and came out for
the Columbia team only this year.
When play was resumed Ulrich was
spiked sliding In to second base, but would
not leave the field, and was allowed to con?
tinue. In the eighth Inning Sanders, the
Columbia left field?.*r, In going after Clark?
home run tripped In running down a ter?

he had to be carried to the dre??lng rooms

Th? race was run In s drizzling rsJn.

When the runners faced the starter, at
I noon, a mornins shower had turned the
Irst five miles into a mass of slippery mud,
while the remainder of the course had an
oil finish that made bad footing.
Sparsor, of I>eicester, and fiaklad, of

After leaving the five mile point, at South

Malcolm Has Wonderful Control,
but Vermont Loses.
[By T??l"grirh to The Trihune 1
New Haven, April 1...?Yale defeated the
University of Vermont nine in one of th.?
best games ever seen on Yale Field here
to-day by the se?ore of 2 to 1. Yale score?l
both runs after one man had been retired
In tiie ninth inning.
The game contained many remarkable
features, principally the gilt edged pitching
of Malcolm, for Vermont. For eight Inn?
ings he not only held Yale scoreless, but
hltless as well. In that time Yale did not
even make the semblance of a hit. In the
ninth, however, two bases on baila, a paased
ball and R.-illy's hit, the only one of ths
game, proved the Vermont pitcher's undo?
ing.

Take Time to
Think About God
I A
That is the highest act of which a
man is capable. Thorough thought,
habitual thought, reverent thought,
about the Highest is the best use of
mortal mind.
And if you think about God, He will
not let you forget your brother.
Hearken now to the Supreme Law,
as laid down by humanity's best
Friend, safest Teacher and only
Redeemer :
"Thou shalt love the Lord thy God
with all thy heart, * * * and Thy
Neighbor as thyself."
