( -itisflcd with the performances of his Hftf iDam at Spokane. Wilmot thinks he i " ' 'a . IT has the best aggregation in the league k-. : nd feels certain that he will cop the ' , jjennant. "Wilmot has added two speed - - ..lachlnes to his staff since his last I islt to Salt Lake and he bqllevps he I i t lias the team that will do the business, I tice the baseball season is fairly on. HT ' There will be some changes in the H, ; T"nder8' line-up this afternoon. Hausen i ' I vin be behind the bat, '"Big Jim" . i 7iggs will probably officiate on tho VI , - lab, Tvellackey will hold down first, Hl ;)clmas second, Bruyetto short and j Weed third. Ward, Muller and Glmlln w v.lll constitute the outfield protector- H'i te. Jensen, the southpaw pitcher rc- 1 . ently released by McCloskey, may be IT 'ilven a chance, but this has not yet H ueen decided. - Butte will appear in about this or- Hj( ler: Swindells, catcher; Howells or Hf Uandclln, pitcher; Shaffer, first base; H i lloffmelster, second base; Spencer, third H1' base; Runkle, shortstop; Wilmot, right " 'leld; McHale. center field; Clark, left , I ld. J. Peck Sharp will hold the in- L 1 j "Sunny Jim" Schaffer, the Butte first K! 'laseman, Is one of the most popular i , i players in the league At Spokane re- H 1 :ently Schaffer was given an ovation H ' vi ch time he came .to the bat, accord- Hj , i " ' log to reports, and the Washington fans H - reverence him almost us much as ther 'lo their own players. Hellly rcc'cntly H ,' i .nade an offer lo Wilmot lor Schaffcr's H rvlccs, but the Butte manager will H 1 1 probably refuse to let him go, as he is fine of the best first-Hackers in the ' 1 league. , H' "Soldier" Cook is making good r.'ith H j the Boise team, according to reports t from the Idaho' town. Cook made v. B ! number' of brilliant stops In his first H" -f ' j ' Tame' against the Indians besides as- I 3ieting in a fast double play. The Boise H:, ( 'ans like him and think McCloskey did HT i a good Job when he secured the ex- . Elder, i j I ' After several days of argument be- H ytween the two managers It has been j - decide that Butte will not forfeit the Z game to Spokane to have beeji played April 2G. On Tuesday Reilly made a H ' claim for the game and it was conceded I - by the Butte manager, but later the ; " point wab ralcod that Butto had per- H ; - mission from the league meeting to - play the exhibition game at Salt Lake 1 t ' 1 Sunday and were unavoidably delayed. , 1 l On this ground President Lucas has l1 ; ' ... ruled that it la mere-ly a postponed i , " fame and not forfeited.
