THE BIG RAPIDS BOYS.
Three Of Them Will Be Found with

rEon the ot LOUIS sporting news.
BIG RAPIDS, MICH. March 1.-SPECIAh
One year ago the bah
eranks Of Big Rapids and sister cities were
busily engaged in the formation of the
Northern Michigan League. This league.
during its existence gave us some very
excellent games but in the end followed
the general rule of oil amateur organize
tions and died a peaceful death from lack
of sufficient patronage. 1t was the meaps
however, Of bringing out some very prem
Ising young players, who have this year
secured positions with some good clubs
We hear of them IN the Texas, Pennsy,-
vania, Ohio and California State Leagues.
and note with especial pleasure the signing
of the prime favorites Of last years Big
Rapids league club; the only ones Of the
original team that had the playing quail
ties TO warrant keeping them throughout
the season.
These three are captain and short stop,
W. II Mumby, q sure hitter, superior
pick up and an accurate thrower. His
batting average last year was 1868. G.. II.
Flagg, pitcher and fielder, whose clear
head work and deceitful curves were
riddle to his opponents, notably the hard
hitting Kalamazoo, who could only find
him for five singles. He is fine fielder
and was the best base runner in the club if
not In the old league. His batting record
for last year was $40. The other man is
Ed. Wiswell, catcher and left fielder, the
home run hitter of the club and with, 4
an equal in the league for catching long
flies and threwing from the field to bases.
His batting average was .355. They have
all affixed their autographs to Bloomington
contracts TO play in the Interstate League.
They are gentlemen in every sense, and we
prophesy for them a good season and lois
Of friends.
This year we will have nothing but locsI
games In this part Of the State, and to ap.
pease our yearnings we will have to d.
pend on the Sporting News and kindred

From the Odd Fellows Herald.
On Thursday evening. March 9Th the
Odd Fellows OF Owosso and vicinity ten
dered q reception to the Hon. q. M. Dew.
ey, Grand Master of the jurisdiction of
Michigan. The ceremonies were instituted
by. and held under the auspices of Star Of
Hope Lodge No. 76 of the Degree of Re-
bekah. and were in every respect an un-
qualified success. The attendance was
large and the banquet was all that could be
desired; the tables being beautifully decor
ated, and loaded with every thing in the
way of refreshments that could tempt the
appetite of the most fasiidious and
served by the sisters of the order in way
to give every one an opportunity to laugh
and grow fat" After all had done ample
justice to the viands the following program
WAS carried out. Past Grand o. g. Smith
acting as toast master:
Owosso Lodge No. SO. I. y. o. F.,

Master G NJ. Dewey.
The Work OF the Daughters of Rebekah
from an Outside Standpoint. response by
Rev d. w. Sharts.
Past Grand o. 8. Smith with few well
chosen words in behalf OF the members Of
the order generally and of Star of Hope
lodge in particular presented the Grand
Mastcr.with q beautiful watch charm bear.
ing the emblems Of the order, also beau
tiful cake, which was model of nsatness
and artistic work, being ornamented with
manv emblems Of the order and the words
welcome Grand Master forever
The presentations were evidently sur.
prise to the Grand Master, and came as
near as anything well could to disconcerting
that veteran Odd Fellow, but he caught his
breath. pulled himself together and made
a feeling and eloquent acknowledgment
TO the members of the order for the tokens
of their good wishes and returned his
hearty thanks for the same.
The responses to the toasts were appro.
pirate and well given but 1t would exceed
the limits desired for an article of this kind
to refer at length 10 them. That Of Rev.
Sharts however particularly felicitious and
that of Sister Fowler the Noble Grand of
Star OF Hope lodge, full Of merit and feel
ing. After some time spent in social in
tercourse the members of the order and
friends separated feeling that
they had passed profitable as well as a
pleasant evening. Such occasions can but
result in much good to the order and the
public generally. ODD FELLow.

the views advanced by Mr.. Cox. He re-
garded the question OF the admission
of the Territories as largely 20.
litical, and believed that the interests OF
the DemoSatic party should be considered.
He was sure that u Republican Senate
would admit these Territories, which
were Republican, and reject those
which were Democratic. lie did
not see tho force OF the argument that
admitting the Territories at present would
make them Democratic. That was kind
of threat and he did not intend TO BIZ in
iluenced by it. II the people of the Terri.
tories had so little idea OF Democracy they
should be left out until they learned better
the principles OF the Democratic party He
ridiculed the idea that the Republican
Congress, with majority of from one TO
three in the House, would bc allowed 10
have its own way in regard to the admS-
| sion Of the Territories Let Congress 90
slowly. Colorado had been admitted bya
Democratic Congress- and he saw nothing
Democratic about it.
Mr.. Mansur, OF Missouri, favored q prop.
ostion to allow Dakota 20 vote on the
question OF division.
Mr.. Biggs, OF California, favored the di-
viding OF Dakota and the admission of Da-
kota. To sheol, ho said, with the policy
OF preventing Territory being admitted
in Difference to the dictates of political
party.
Mr. Chapman, OF Michigan, wanted all
American citizens 10 have their rights. II
Dakota wanted 10 enter the Union, Let her
come.
Mr.. Holman, OF Indiana, supported tho

that effect
Mr.. Spinola, Of New York, said that the
question was purely political. lilo would
oppose the admission of Territories in
every way he could and in 1892, with
staunch, sterling Democrat at the head of
the Democratic ticket, that party would
march on to victory. lie did not believe
in sentimental measures
i Mr.. McAdoo, OF New Jersey. deprecated
any concessions TO the Republican party
The Democrats would be Justified in the
face OF a greedy plu,Ocacy in opposing the
Republicans, and they should do it.
Mr.. Macdonald predicted that il the
Democrats did not admit Dakota il would
be Republican for years. Let the Demo.
Gratis be wise. The tariff hadn't beaten
the Democrats in the Northwest, but po-
Dakota, had been responsible for the
result.
Mr.. Weaver, OF Iowa, favored the omni-
bus bill and the admission OF all the Ter
ritories except Utah.
Mr.. Toole, Of Montana, spoke in favor OF
admitting that Territory, predicting that
II that were done she would send two
Democrats to the Senate, otherwise she
would be Republican Tor decades.
Mr.. Bland, OF Missouri, said that in 1892
the seat Of war would not be- in New York,
New Jersey and Connecticut, but in the
West. The people were tired of being
dominated 10y New York politics. Let the
Democratic party follow Horace Grecly's
advice and grow up with the country.
Mr. Voorhees, OF Washington Territory.
attributed the Republican majority in the
Territory 10 the failure of the Democrats TO
pass an enabling act for its admission.
Without taking any action the caucus
adjourned until Thursday evening.
