MEETING OF THE JOINT RULES coNMrrTKE OF
THE LEAGUE AND AMERICAN ASSOCIATIONS
The joint rules committee, consisting Of
Messrs. A. 6. Spalding, John l. Rogers, Phila-
delphia, and John B. Day, New York, repre-
seuting the National League base Ball organi.
cation. and Messrs. lack Phelps. Louisville: o.
z. Caylor, Cincinnati, and William BaTnie,
Baltimore, representing the American associa-
ton, met in Chicago yesterday The work of
the meeting IL To arrange set Of playing rules
that will be agreeable to both Organizations,
and do away with the system now In vogue.
Numerous changes were made yesterday. In
place Of the stone at home plate base similar
in size, but made OF white rubber, WAS recon-
mended. The position of FIRST and third bases
was moved seven and half inches, SO that the
bags would be inside the foul lines, thereby
helping the umpire in deciding whether q hit
fell in lair or foul ground. The new rules Of
ton OF coachers were favorably received. They
require that the cOacher shall not be nearer
than sfxty-five feet to the home plate, thereby
preventing q coacher from running along the
line from third base TO home plate TO disconcert
an opposing player.
The League rule concerning the position OF
benches aud bat racks was incorporated in the
rules of the American association. It was
unanimously agreed that In the future all clubs
playing under the national agreement shall use
the Spalding or Reach ball.
1t was also required OF the American associa-
ton that each ball AUST be weighed, measured
ana sealed, with the name OF the secretary
upon the box containing the ball. the same as
is In vogue In the League. OF the using of two
balls, the committee suggests thut when a ball
Is batted out of sight Of the player another Just
batted ball Is returned.
Whenever a ball ia ripped or damaged another
must be at once brought into play. The Amer
lean association was allowed to use the fiat bat.
The League field rules, with slight modifica-
lions. were also extended 10 the association
teams.

murderer Of James n. Hamilton, was taken
from Jail in Harrison. Ark, by q mob Saturday
night and shot to death. MuIligan was brought
there from Macon county, where he committed
the crime, for safe keeping. Saturday night
at about twelve o'clock q number of mounted
men appeared near the jail, reconnoitered for
a time, and then rode away. About an hour
later about thirty-five heavily armed and well.
mounted men made an attack upon the Jail,
captured the guards and jailer, the latter OF
whom they ordered to open the doors. This he
refused to do. but the keys were taken from
him and the prisoner dragged forth. A rope
was placed around his neck and he was liter.
ally dragged after galloping horse for the dis.
lance of Jour blocks, where the end OF the rope
was thrown over the limb of u tree, and as the
murderer was drawn up into the air his body
was riddled with bullets. The mounted mob
then rode away. having accomplished its OBJ
ject. Mulligan was an emplOye of Hamilton,
who owned q farm in Macon county, and shot
his employer without cause on the night OF DC.

FROM the London Times
Some days ago Paris was the theater OF q
strange rite, which was witnessed by many
thousands. The Cingalese troupe of acrobats
and jugglers, who have been amusing Paris Tor
some time past, received an addition to their
number by the birth of a boy, who Was named
on the day ext following. In the morning two
BONES betoOk themselves to the cradle where
he lay to cast his horoscope. They announced
that ne Would live TO great age and would
nave numerous descendants. But the pictur-
esque portion oi the ceremonial WAS in the after
noon. The child was laid ON the grass. The
women quilted their huts, and chanting a wild
hymn, tney bore in richly adorned bag what
was SAID to be the sacred tooth OF Sakkya NUM-
TO where the boy lay. Then with cries of joy
they scattered flowers proIusely over him,
while the men took up the hymns. In addition
10 MS father name the boy received the n..me
OF Paris. Then the whole troupe went TO the
mothers toht and presented her with great
Quantity OF gifts-gold pieces and ornaments,
bracelets, foot-rIngs ana fruits of the season.
1he ceremony lasted about an hour, the crowd
frequently hreaking into cries OF "Long live
Pars-Buddha.'

The Maine Tragedy.

THE PAL OF THE PoACHER MURDERER IN JAIL.
James l.. Mcfarland, companion of Calvin P
Graves, who murdered the two gamel eepers,
Hill and Niles, at Township SO, on the Machias
river, in Maine, November 8, surrendered him.
self to the authorities on Sunday afternoon He
was disguised, ironed. and driven to Machias
Jail. The people of Hancock, where Mcfarland
gave himself up, did not know OF the arrest I'M
til yesterday morning, when there great
excitement in the neignborhOod. Nobody was
able to get chance to talk with him. He said
to the officers that he hid in the woods Tor fear
OF violence from the citizens. He said that he
and Graves put for home AS quickly as possible
after the murder, and that they parted at
Fietcher's, where Graves left the team, on
Tuesday morning at daybreak, and that he had
not seen Graves since. 1t is suspected, how
ever, that tine two men have been hiding In the
woods together, and that Graves mas been home
or been seen by friends, who have furnished
him with money, and that he is now beyond
the reach of the officers. He is probably doing
his brst TO get to England. where he has rela-
tives. He knows every inch OF the coast from
Bangor to Halifax, and once went to Florida in
small boat to shoot ducks.
A KENTUCKY FEUD.-Tne war in Perry cOun.
ty, KY, between the French and Eversole fac
lions has broken out afresh. Almost every cit
iZen OF the county has taken sides with one or
as they are called. Both factions seem to come
to the conclusion that there can be no settle
ment except by eNtermination. Both factions
are armed, and the first shot will bring about "a
general war; The ieud between French and
Evcrsole dates back several years. They are
rivals In business, and control the entire trade
of several mountain counties. The report that
both were killed some time ago was not true
second annual convention of the National
Veterinarian and Sanitary Boards association
koper, of Pennsylvania university, in the
chair. In opening the meeting he said that
the veterinarian aud sanitary boards of the
states and territories had chosen wisely in
meeting In Chicago the same week as the Con-
soiidated Cattle-growers association, as sani-
lary questions affecting the interest OF cattle
contagious diseases, such pleuro-pneumonia.
When they met last year they were prepared
for Il wider spread of this disease, but they
were scarcely prepared tor the immediate out
break of it in Chicago. Some effort should be
made in Congress for the better support of the
bureau OF animal industry. There was a want
OF harmony between national and state legis.
latiOn, which nude it inpracticabe or very
difficult tor the bureau OF animal industry To
connect with state authorities
