THE PHONOGRAPH DISCUSSED
DOUGLAS BASEBALL CLUB
Cutting a Swath on Diamond This Season.
Owing to the deep interest taken in the Douglas
Baseball Club, representing the Dougias Phono-
graph Co., 89 Chambers street, New York, by
Charles V. Henkel, president or the company, and
the liberal manner in which the firm has treated
the club, ana through the untiring efforts ol
Charles Kelly, their manager, who is at the head
of the shipping department, the team this season
made their appearance in brand new uniforms of
Yale gray with maroon trimmings and with coats
of the same shade, but with bright red trimming.
The following is the schedule of games played
and booked up to the present time: April 7, at
Dexter Park, Douglas Baseball Club, 9; High-
land, A. C, 2. April 14, at Dexter Park, Douglas
Baseball Club, 5; Highland A. C, 5 (ten innings).

An interesting feature of the Douglas games is
that they print a very neat folder for the score
card, showing the batting order of both teams,
giving the teams at whose ground they play a
notice thereon of their next, game; also an ad-
vertising notice of their nearest dealer to the
place they play; likewise showing a large cut of
the interior of their store at 89 Chambers street.
These cards are distributed at all grounds where
the Douglas team play.
The ever popular John Kaiser, the sales man-
ager of the house, is now a converted rooter for
the team. It seems he owns a deed for a plot
in a cemetery at Hicksville, and when he learned
the boys were to open up the season there, and
knowing the reputation of the strong Hicksville
bunch, whenever the opportunity arose, he flour-
ished the deed for the plot and vowed he was
going to bury the boys up there if they lost; but
at the end of the game, with the final score of
9 to 6 in favor of the Douglas boys, "Poor John's"
manly form could be seen down the road making
a straight line for the hotel with the Hicksville
deed in one hand, and wiping his lips with his
other hand in "anticipation." Since then "Our
John" swears by the "Douglas bunch."
The club have a few more dates open and would
be pleased to hear from all strong uniformed out-
of-town teams, particularly in the music trade.
For any information regarding games, etc., com-
municate with Charles Kelly, manager, 89 Cham-
bers street, New York City.
