BASEBALL RULES.
Managers Introduce Many and Sweep
ing Changes I'm the Laws OF
the Diamond.
Good Players Are Handicapped and the
Poorer Men Given an Unfair
Advantage.

Radical changes in the playing rules
were made by the Joint Rules Committee
of the League and American base or
CARNATIONS, ut their meeting in Chicago
last week. Heretofore batter could call
for either a high or low ball. The new
rule deprives the batsman of that privilege.
The pitcher must, in the future, deliver
the ball over the plate and between the
shoulder and knee of the batsman. If five
balls are sent wide of the plate the batter
will take his base on called balls. In
such an event the batter will be credited
with q base hit. Four strikes will be al
lowed the batter, instead of three,
while, if the batter is hit by ball
when at bat, he will be allowed TO take
first base. Any motion of the head, feet,
or arm made by the pitcher while in the act
of delivering the ball shall, in the future,
be considered balk. The choice of inn
ings will next season be left with the home
cap ain. A batter is out on the fourth strike
under the new rule whether the ball is
dropped or passed by the catcher. The
question of having two umpires and ref
cree was brought up, but n majority of the
committee voted against the scheme, and it
was dropped. modification of the UNI
pires' rules of both organizations was
adopted. The pitchers box was shortened
to lve and a half feet, and the pitcher will
be required to keep his forward foot firmly
on the ground when about to deliver the
ball. His rear foot must be on the back line
of the box, and he will be allowed to take
but one step when delivering the ball. The
ball must be held in plain view Of the um-
pire. The pitcher cannot, as heretofore,
deliver the ball to the batter after making
feint TO throw to first base, but must re-
sumo his position in his box. Only two
coachers will be permitted, and they shall
have the right to talk to base runners only.
For talking to batsman the coacher will
be reprimanded for the first offense and be
forced to give up his coaching and another
man put in his place on a repetition of the
fault
In scoring, when batter is given his
base on called balls, hit is credited to
the batter, and an error given to the pitch
er in the summary only. All batting errors
are charged in the summary, as are earned
runs, two and three base hits, home runs
| double plays, base on balls, hit by pitcher,
passed balls, wild pitches, time of game,
and the name of the umpire. A pitcher
will be given no credit for strike out In
the place of total bases the record of sto-
len bases will be kept. Any attempt made
| by player to steal n base must be credit
! ed, whether an error is made or not, if the
runner is successful in reaching base.

DEATH FROM A DOCS BITE.
The Fearful Fate OF Unfortunate Miss
Daisy Trick, OF Danville,
Illinois.
Horribly Lacerated by the Teeth Of a
Newfoundland Dog, She Dies
of Hydrophobia.
tChicago telegram. |

Daisy Trick, of Danville. H., died at the
house of w. III. Daniels, at the conner of
Fifty seventh and La Sale streets, yester-
day, of hydrophobia. -Four weeks ago the
girl. who was but fifteen years old, was
playing with large Newfoundland dog
belonging to Mr.. Daniels, at whose house
she made her home. The animal was .un-
usually good natured, and the children
in the neighborhood made playfellow of
him. On the morning Of Oct. IL girl
who lived near by came to the house and
the dog acted rather ugly. This was some-
what unusual, as the visitor had been in
the habit of playing with him. No serious
thought was paid TO his demeanor. however,
the supposition being that he was simply
in ill-humor. Miss Daisy called to the
dog but instead Of obeying her he attacked
the neighbours girl more ferociously than
before, and succeeded III throwing her down
and tearing her clothing before he could be
conquered
The unfortunate Trick girl took hold of
the canine and led him to the barn. When
she was about to close the door behind her,
he made dash for her throat Before as
sistance could reach her, his fangs had
penetrated the back of her neck, her arms,
her ear, and the side of her face. She
tainted away, and when picked up was ap-
parently lifeless. Medical attendance was
summoned, the young lady rallied, and it
was thought that she was out of danger.
Mr.. Daniels and his family, however.
feared the result. The dog was shot, and
every precaution taken to remove everys
thing which would tend to recall the terri.
BILE event to the girls mind.
On the ninth day suspicious symptoms
induced friends to send the patient to St
Luke's Hospital, where she underwent q
course of treatment, and returned home .
few days later under the impression
that cure had been completed. Thurs.
day she complained Of feeling strangely.
Within a few hours the symptoms grew 50
alarming that physician was sent for. De-
spite all efforts she was attacked with
spasms, which followed closely upon one
another.
The most pitiful feature of the case
was th.t she retained consciousness
throughout, opiates failing entirely to
deaden her suffering Several persons
were required to hold her in bed. and il
was with the utmost difficulty that she was
restrained from biting some of her attend
ants. Drs. Whitman and Lovewell admin
istered chloroform in large Doses but it had
no effect. She cried for water constantly
and when il was brought she would scream
\ in terror. Thus her suffering continued un-
til yesterday morning at 1880, when she
passed away. Her death was not so vio-
| lent as her previous illness, her nervous
system seeming 10 give away suddenly al
! the last.

EX-MINISTER LOWELL.
His Engagement to Lady Lytton, Widow
of the Late Lord Lytton.

James Russell Lowell, poet, litterateur,
diplomat, and late United States Minister
to the Court of st. James, is going to be
married. The bride-elect is Lady Lytton,
widow of the late and aunt by marriage of
the present lord Lytton. Lady Lytton
has, like Mr.. Lowell, been already twice
married. She has three children, and is
about forty years old. Mr. Lowell is sixty.
Mr.. Lowell has been prominently before
the public the past few weeks by his con-
troversy with Julian Hawthorne. Mr..
Lowell sharply criticised the conduct of
Mr.. Hawthorne in taking advantage of an
old friend of his father to make public
what was said in the strictest confidence.
Mr.. Hawthorne, in defense of his
course, intimated that Mr.. Lowell did
know he was being interviewed.
Mr.. Lowell then published letter
in which he reaf1irmed his statement that
he did not know, and never even suspected
Mr. Hawthorne's purpose in visiting him.
and adds: IF he Hawthorne shall as
sert that he told me for what he came. and
that understood him, shall feel obliged
TO leave the matter with those who know
us both as question of veracity between
him and me-"

The Lady Equestrian.

When lady mounts horse the as
sistant should adjust the reins equally,
and place them in the lady's right hand,
just before the pommel of the saddle
and between the crutches, the whip
being in the same hand. She puts her
fore-fnger between the reins, gently
letting her hand slip until it rests over
the near crutch of the saddle; standing
then upright, close to the horse, with
her right side toward the saddle, the
assistant places himself before her,
keeping her partly between himself and
the saddle; he can place both hands
together interlocked, or use the right
hand alone, if he has sufficient strength (;
he then stoops to receive the lady's left
foot, which is placed full and firm in
his hand or hands; the lady at the
same time places her left hand upon
his right shoulder, by which and the
hold she has on the crutch of the sad
die, she steadies herself while she bears
her weight on her foot in the assist
ants hand, Strengthening her left knee
and keeping it firm, while he raises her
to the saddle, where she pauses, while
her assistant places her left foot in the
stirrup. She then changes her right
hand to the off crutch, and raises her.
self in the stirrup, while the assistant
draws forward the skirt next the sad
die, when the lady places her right knee
over the pommel, and seats herself
with becoming ease and grace in the
saddle.

cipal increase was in cigars, cigarettes, and
spirits distilled from grain. The cost of
collection during the year was 81, 299,4 S5,
being about 3.6 per cent. of the amount
collected, against 81 ,455, 430, or about 3.9
per cent. for the previous year. 1t is esti-
mated that llS,000,O00 will be collected
during the current fiscal year. The num-
Der of Illicit stills seized was 154, and l,2li
persons arrested therein. The seizures
were principally in Georgia, North Caro-
lima. Tennessee, Kentucky, and Virginia.
The estimated expenses for the next
fiscal year are 81 ,236, 440, of which II ,900,-
900 is for salaries and expenses OF revenue
agents, surveyors, gaugers, store Ike epers,
ETC., and 1896, 4i0 for salaries Of officers
and employees of the Commissioners Office,
which includes an appropriation for an ad-
ditiobal chief of division and increase of
force rendered necessary by the oleomar-
garine law. The number of stamps issued
during the year was 50,O6l ,O29 and their
>alue Sl35, 10, 305.
The production account shows an in
crease in manufactured tobacco of 1O,79S,-
$50 pounds; in the number of cigars and
cigarettes, 433, 507, 247; in tobacco exported,
~, 1863, 900. The number OF cigars imported

Ions, and 10, 1892 bushels of grain We're
used.
There were SOS violations of revenue
laws reported during the year, Eor which
637 persons were arrested.
The Commissioner recommends that the
principle of taxation which applies to all
other articles taxed under internal revenue
laws be made to apply TO distilled spirits.
He also calls attention to the necessity of
legislation to remove the present discrimi-
nation against retail liquor dealers i'll the
matter of penalties of fine and imprison-
ment for doing business without payment
of the required special tax, and the urgent
necessity for the passage of the bill TO
amend the Revised Statutes by repeating
the section allowing collectors of internal
revenue commissions on taxes collected on
distilled spirits.

INDIANA POLITICS.
The Struggle for the Control of the Lcgis-
lature-Prospect of IA Big Rumpus.

indianapolis special
The struggle for the mastery in the in
coming Legislature goes merrily on. Nc
Donald, of Jackson County, whose seat has
been contested by the Democracy on the
ground that he (McDonald) carried to the
election and used 400 silver dollars, is in
the city. He says that the meat of the
whole charge lies in the fact that the
Democracy has reigned in the district for
thirty years, and their defeat at this crisis
has so enraged them that they are willing
to charge or do anything that promises TO
break the force of the Republican victory.
He says that the only bribery he knows
of was on the part of certain Democratic
county officers, who carried TO one town.

There will be about twenty contested
seats, and many OF the counties in which
papers are filed are boiling with excitement.
which in due time will be transferred to
the Legislature. Chairman Henderson
saws to-day that the Republicans will begin
the matinee by throwing out Meagher,
Democrat, of Vigo County, and added:
"Then the meeting will be open and preach
ing will begin" He refused to unfold the
Democratic policy, but it Is an open secret
that for every Democrat of the lower
house unseated by the Republicans, who
control that branch, Republican will be
fired out of the Senate Chamber. This
policy seems 10 be Endorsed by the De-
mocracy throughout the State. AS the
Democrats have contested more seats than
the other side, il is claimed they will have
somewhat the advantage. The outlook for
a rumpus of large Dimensions continues
favorable from every standpoint.
