son, when several OF the regular players
refused to obey the orders of the manager,
and hr. Malone kindly lent his services
when the club were in POttsviile on the
III Of July. 1t always was the object of
the managers of the club to make their
nine as strong as possible, and whenever a
man became united for any position he
was put in another or dismissed from the
cup. In this way the nine was made one
OF the strongest IN the state. At the close
| OF the season bat two of the original mem.
bsrs OF the club remained in it. They were
oweltzer and Z9cher. When the rousldes
started these men formed the battery, but
1t was s1cu found that they could do timer
work IN The position of third base and
short stop, where they played nearly the
whole OF the season. Ia the last game OF
| the season they were called into their old
position where they played for several in
| nlngs, so they opened and closed the sea
son as the battery. During the
| whole season the Ironsides were well su
piled with batteries, and they always had
four or five fine catchers. Indeed more
attention was paid TO those positions than
any other. What the club lacked until
the latter part OF tho season was heavy
batters. In this, however, they imp roved
owing Co their meeting so many fine
pitchers and whom they disbanded had

remains OF Nellie Parker, bis murdered
wife, were being laid under the sod to-

German teaInster, who resided with
his wife and five children at No.

with his wife as usual last night. His five

The need OF a mdrket-house in Clay Ward

solved that something must be done TO ap-
pease them. and they ihercupon deter

question was submitted TO the voters OF the
ward, and they voted in favor of the market
house and expressed their preference for i
certain location.
After that nothing was done. The COun'
Gil considered that it had discharged lis
duty. Those who were afraid that the es.
tablishment OF Wcst-End market would
remove some business from about the two
rrpSent markets were satisfied. But in Tho
bad weather Of this winter there has beer

present arrangement a to markets. The
