P. E. Murphy of this city yesterday made a
voluntary offer of a cash bonus to the St Paul
nine to sail in and win the pennant. Mr..
Murphy says that if the Western association
penuant floats over st. Paufs base ball park
next autumn he will donate to the manage
ment 81 900, to be divided among the mem
bers of the team in equal proportions. This
liberal offer discounts donations of cups and
similar trophies, which. if won by club, be-
come the property of the management. Que
thing Mr.. Murphy can be certain Of and that
is the st. Paul nine will play bail for all they
are worth, andif the rag comes this way the
event win be appropriately celebrated, his
81 600 going long way to furnish the py
rotechnics for the occasion.
There will be two games tomorrow at the
new park. At 1915 a. m. st. Paul will open
the ball with Chicago, and take another turn
at the Maroons at 3: 80 D. m.

Probably the most remarkable thing
about yesterdays game between 81.
Paul and Milwaukee was the home run
of Strauss. 1t is not remarkable for
Strauss to make home runs, nor was his
hit remarkable for its length, but the
hit was remarkable in being the first
ever made by a visiting team at Atll-
letic park. The grounds have been in
almost constant use for over three
weeks. and in that time the local team
has made more than twenty home runs.
This fact has been commented on al
most daily, and many were the reasons
given for this curious state of things.
Many there were who believed that
there was some sort of charm sur
rounding the grounds which effectually
prevented visiting teams from hitting
the ball outside the enclosure. Strauss
hit, however. settles this matter, and 1t
is expected the teams which come to st,
Paul in the future will take a hand in
the home-run getting. Yesterdays con-
test was smuggling match, which had
its climax in the seventh inning. AT
the beginning Of tine inning the score
was to 4 iii favor of st. Paul, and at It's
end ST. Paul had 13 and Milwaukee z.
MorrisSy opened the inning with a
double to center field, took third on a
wild pitch and scored Oh Veach's out
Singles by Reilly and Shafer followed,
and Pickett and Earle each put in
double, Sowders went out on fly to
first, Murphy hit to right, went to third
on CuSick's bad throw and crossed the
plate on Carrolls hit along the left foul
line. Morrissy then put another
6ousie into the field and Veach was
given base on balls. The bases were
full, and the outlook for more runs was
promising. Reilly, however, settled the
matter by going out on a grounder to
third. In the last half of the inning
Mills made hit and took second on
Neach's error, McAleer got a life on
Veach's tumble and Strauss brought
them both in with hit over the fence
at left. Neither side scored after this.
The fielding of both teams was rather
uncertain. MorriSsy easily led the bat
ting The score follows.

PROCLAMATION.

MAYORS OFFICE, Minneapolis, July
2, 1SSS-Whereas: There seems to be
considerable apprehension in the minds
of some of our timid citizens over the
increasing love of country as manifested
by the masses, in their usual propensity
for making explosive noises, holding
fireworks exhibitions, and otherwise
aiding and abetting such demonstra-
lions as are peculiar to the day we cele-
brate, and
Whereas. believe that remnant of
the early patriotism of the days of the
Revolution has escaped the network of
trusts and monopOliStic combines which
have defed the constitution and legis-
latures and oppressed the people gener-
orally since 1861,
ton, relative to the Fourth day of July,
1888:
First ask all good citizens to aid
me in encouraging the small boy, en-
thuSiastic youth and hilarious old man,
who are bent upon burning powder on
that day, to come down to the heart of
the city on our stone pavements and
sidewalks, where there are abundant
facilities for putting out fires.
Merchants and property owners are
requested to clean up all rubbish under
their sidewalk gratings, and to take all
necessary precautions against fires.
l strictly forbid the firing of all FIRE
works in alleys, in the vicinity OF unfin-
ished buildings, barns, lumber piles and
other dangerous places. ALI violations
of this order will lead to the arrest of the
offender and his punishment in the mu-
nicipal court.
George Washington gave the follow
ing order to the commander at Fort
Miff1in, Pa, July 8, TIT: tissue rations
of rum to the soldiers, that they may
properly celebrate on tomorrow the an
niversary of the Declaration of INDIE
pendence." Contrary to the illustrious
country, desire to recommend proper
observance of the day, without recourse
to intoxieants-or if rations are taken,
that they be used in moderation and
never to excess. A. A. AMEs, Mayor.

are to be turned over to it. The ladies'
portion of the stand, the reporters
stand, the judges and the timers
stands were ornamented with American
shields festooned with flags of nearly
all the nations of the earth having
banner emblems. The attendance
was very large. 1t was a good-natured
crowd, typical Brighton Beach assem-
bly,. and it bet its wealth on what it con-
sidered the best horse with reckless
ness that was typical of the average
Brighton Beach regular. The fields of
horses were far too large, and that was
the only drawback to the perfect pleas
ure of the day. The event of the day
was the Mullin handicap at mile and
quarter. Barnum was the favorite. Al
though Lakeland's Tattler had many ad-
mirers, old Barnum received welcome
when he made his appearance. They
got the flag at the first effort and went
away with Tattler in the lead. Tattier
