The resolution offered in the State
Legislature yesterday, authorizing the
quarlermaster general to turn over to a
committee of the officers of the Ninth
c. Y. the battle flag captured of the
Fourth Mississippi regiment during the
war, reflects credit upon those originally
suggesting it. The idea that the return
of this sad emblem of the war to its
former owners might help along the
coming era of good feeling is noble
one.

The raking up that President Byrne gave
his Brooklyn team evidently did them good,
as they have o four games in succession,
and have commenced to show their ability.
Two such batting games have seldom fol-
lowed each other, as their last two victories.
President Barnie, of the Baltimores, seems
to think bis team needed some such medi-
cine, as be read the riot act to his gang on
Thursday, discharged two of them, suspend
ed another and announced that such policy
would continue. 1t is q pity that the man
sgement of the Nets does not follow suit.
That team Is composed Of good material
and should make q better showing. No better
behaved lot Of ball players ever constituted
a team than are now playing IN the ALE
gheny team. They were handicapped from
the start BY Mountains unfortunate acci.
dent, but now it seems that Meegsn and
O'Day can give Morris the necessary as
sistance If Mountain continues lame.
The score of Fridays game shows that
the work of Cincinnati new battery must
have been very Disappointing to the club
management. It is said that the battery
McKeou and keenan, are to divide between
them 81, 900 per month for the balance Of
the season. That is adding tremendously
to the already large salary list ofthe team,
and may be regretted BY the club before the
season ends, for they have not been drawing
as well as they hoped.
The detection of McKeoR and Keenan,
from their agreement to go to Detroit if re-
leased from Indianapolis, has made that
deal of small benefit to the Wolverines.
With their pick of the remaining players in
rbe team, they were badly defeated on
Thursday.

to get into the upper story in consequence
of their two overwhelming defeats by the

tune in winning two out of their three

Western clubs, and the Fasteners consti

Secretary Lamar saw the situation at

any party or candidates who do not
