ANXIOUS FOR LADIES TO ATTEND.
The Indianapolis Base Ball Directors Reduce
the Price of Season Tickets for Them.

A meeting of the board of directors Of the
Indianapolis Baseball Club was held last night.
The matter of pushing the sale Of season tickets
was discussed, and Mr.. Louis Newburger was
appointed the head Of committee to be
selected by himself to take the matter actively IN
hand. The increased expense which the club
has assumed for the present season, in
the engagement of new and stronger
players, the building of grand
stand and other improvements has thrown some
thing of responsibility upon the gentlemen
who have the largest financial interest in the
club; but they hope realize enough from the
advance sale of season tickets to enable them to
look with comparative equanimity upon the
many expenses which will crowd upon them
after the season has begun. It is to be
hoped the responses which Mr.. Newburger and
his assistants shall receive will be of such lib
eral nature that the board of directors will not
merely feel reasonable sense of security, but
have reason to be decidedly encouraged at the
outlook.
An important and wise action was also taken
by the directors, last night, in regard to modi-
fled price for season tickets sold to ladies. 1t
was decided to sell them at SIC, or 50 less than
the regular tickets. The action was taken in
the hope of increasing an attendance from the
fair sex-something that the local club
will do everything in its power to
encourage. This they desire. not so much 10
order TO get the additional revenue that would
come from that quarter, but in order to popu-
larize the game and stamp it as an entertain
ment which can be enjoyed By any and all
classes although it is generally recognized as
such now. In some of the Eastern cities, New
York especially, the attendance of ladies has
become a marked feature What established
the custom there the opportunity which it
was seen that the sport afforded ladies, as well
men, to spend a couple Of hours in the open
air, well protected from the sun. and with just
enough entertainment going before them
to keep the blood in lively circulation and the
interest awake. A great many people in the
larger and moro crowded cities have become
regular attendants at ball games more because
they in search of health than that they
were particularly attracted by the sport. In
this regard base ball has advantage al
most any other kind of an amusement, and the
fact is fast being recognized. The managers of
League clubs everywhere doing all in their
power to make the games a suitable quiet,
healthful and thoroughly enjoyable resort for
the ladies, and their efforts are slowly meeting
with success.

No shayine ON Sunday.

The Metropo Titan Police Commissioners,
while in session yesterday at noon. were watt
ed on by q delegation of BARRIERS, representing
all the shops in the city, except the ones in the
New Denison, Grand and Occidental hotels,
which presented a petition asking the Commits
Ei6ners to direct the superintendent to close all
shops on Sunday The Commissioners consent
cd 10 refer the matter to Superintendent Travis
and laterlin the day he instructed to close
tina shops that not voluntarily closed by
their owners. There is great deal of opposi-
ticn to the movement of the barbers but they

work they have to do can be done as easily ia

tition the board granted special powers to

Discussions by Preachers.

"Intercenominational Revival Work was the
subject discussed by the Methodist ministers at
their regular meeting yesterday morning. Rev.
Dr. Keen, of Roberts Park Church. who led in
the discussion, thought that the best method of
conducting revival was by Observation-Disclosures

tions. Other speakers favored his position.

had sometimes been inclined TO spurn union

discussion yesterday it stated that the con-
grega.ion preferred to be placed under the care
of Tabernacle Church, and bad so declared at a
meeting. Elder Elvn, OF the Eighth Church,
said there was foundation for this assertion.
Elder McGilliard, of the Tabernacle, said that
'the Eighth Church was the child of his organize

He OBJECTS to Unwarranted Criticism.

Superintendent Travis was much irritated last
night over note in the News stating that the
''wde-open policy" was again in vogue and that
there was a big Monday morning slate before the
Mayor, made up principally of DRINKS. Il do
not object to the TRUTH" said the Superintend-
ent. ''but / object criticism when there is no
call for it. The fact is. there were but three
arrests Sunday; one of them was for receiving
stolen goods. another was for vagrancy, and the
third was for some misdemeanor. Not single
drunk man was arrested, and believe it was as
quiet Sunday as the city ever saw. There was
some beer sold on Sunday, AS matter of course,
and there never has been Sunday, and never
will be one. when there will be none sold. /
