PLAYERS IN ODD PARALLEL

Josh Devore and Beals Becker Wander Around Circuit, Playing in Exactly 'Same Cities.

Josh Devore is now with the Boston Nationals —a club that is being suddenly ripped to pieces and reconstructed by G. Stallings. By landing in Boston, Josh completes a strange series of wanderings, which exactly parallel those of Beals Becker —a set of coincidences, possibly never before equaled. During the last three sear sons Becker, starting at Boston, went to New York, thence to Cincinnati, and

finally to Philadelphia, where he is now located. Devore, starting at New York, went to Cincinnati, thence to Philadelphia, and finally to Boston, so that these two outfielders, in their travels, have performed in exactly the same set of cities, and no others!

Josh Devore.
