IA Rag Baby" one of Mr.. Charles q. Hoyts
most amusing absurdities, was presented at the
Grand Opera house last night to an audience of
fair size. The company has been subjected to
many changes since its last appearance here.
the most notable being the substitution of
Charlie Reed for Frank Daniels, in the character
of Old Sport. Mr.. Reed is com edian of abl-
ity, but in this character he is not Mr.. Daniels
It is unmistakably fact that the first actor the
public sees in part Is the most popular
ever afterward. provided he possesses average
ability, and this. of course, operates to the dis
advantage of Mr.. Reed in this case. But
that does not account entirely for the difference
In the degree of satisfaction with which the pub
lie accept the two representations. 1t is no dis
paraeement of Reeds ability to say that he can't
play Sport with Frank Daniels. He is undoubt-

establish his popularity Miss George Parker.

It is said both the Philadelphia and Athletic
clubs conte mplate raising the admission price to

is what they ought to do. First-class baseball

Sporting Life: Sam Moffet says he has struck
his 1884 gait when he did very effective pitch
ing for Cleveland, and he fe els confident that he
will be able to do his duty towards securing
leading place for the Indianapolis club next
season.
The league proposes to supply its umpires
with regulation uniforms this season similar to
that worn by Umpire Doescher last year. No
charge will be made for them, but umpires will
be required to present neat and orderly ap-
pearance In all championship contests. A stated
sum will be allowed each umpire for his travel
ing and living expenses and they will not be
permitted to 60 beyond that amount except at
their own cost. Certain umpres have on several
occasions swelled their expense accounts high
as 5000 per month. Such exrravagance will not
be tolerated in the future: The League does not
propose to be nieeardly, but twill not submit
to imposition without protest.

friends seem to think that if the young athlete
should turn professional it might interfere with
his missionary work. Those friends are ill-ad-
vsed. The New York club presents wide field
for missionary labors. Stage could probably do
more good work among the uncertain Giants
than he could among savages Of different hem
isphere and darker color. Stage says he prays
for victory in every game he plays. Probably
something OF this sort might make our New
York players win few more games.

near the Belt railroad, Mr.. Boetticher's horse
was frightened by the whistle of engine
near him, and he was thrown to the ground
with such force that a leg WAS broken. The
bone was shattered that the wound does not
heal. and amputation will probably be neces-
