 The injury to Hecker's hand, which was spiked by Mulligan when the Louisvilles were playing in St Louis, will probably incapacitate him from playing for a month or two.
 George Staltz, who was released by the Lowells last week, played against his old team, with the Manchesters, Saturday, and made single and home run hit, which was the largest ever made upon the ground.
 Battin's third base work the present season is very brilliant, and he is unques- tionably the best man in that position in the International association. The in field work of the Syracuse team is hard to beat.-Sporting Life.
 Jack Ewing, the brother of ''Buck" Ew- ing, who was recently released by the Mem phis club to the Louisvilles, is very tall and thin. He is of the Dave Foutz style of build and is a very clever young fellow He throws terrible bali and is considered by many experts the twirler in the South ern league.
 There may have been good reason for the release of Captain Wheeler by the Worcester team, but it is an interesting fact to know that, out of the last 15 games in which he played prior to his release he failed to make a safe hit in only two of them, and his batting average was .279, and his fielding average in the same time was 964-Boston Herald.
 Says Mutrie: "Anson gets great deal of credit for things he never does. That Chicago infield is a remarkable one and those four men are genuine stone-wall They work together like watch and each one knows just what the other will do in a trying moment. There is the success of the Chicago club. Anson, Pfeffer, Will liamson and Burns win all the games for Chicago. His young pitchers and catchers simply prevent the other mines from scoring many runs so that stone-waLr gets in the runs and wins the games. As soon as Anson breaks up that inield, Chicago's glory will be gone"

CINCINNATI, Aug. AT the close of
the twelfth inning in to-day's Cincin-

tie and both teams were anxious to co.,

called the game on account of darkness.
A remarkable running catch by Gilks,

Yesterday, the amounts were deducted
from their salaries, and they refused to

BUREAU AND TRUNK,

Boon to Summer Travellers Who
Are Cramped for Room at the
Seaside.
New York Mail and Express.
"What is the latest novelty in the
trunk business?" was asked by re-
porter of well-known dealer in that
line of goods few days ago.
"The very latest thing. believe, is
called the bureau trunk and is made
especially for the use of ladies going to
the country or seashore, where the ac-
commodations are likely to be more or
less cramped in the matter of room.
think it about the neatest thing of the
kind ever put on the market, and, to use
hackneyed expression, fills long-felt
want for those who are practically
forced to live in a trunk for three
months in year.
The dealer then drew from under the
counter a large rectangular-shaped
trunk. 1t was thirty-six inches long
and of proportionate depth and width,
with fiat top, and was covered COM
pletely with light-colored leather, with
silver clasps and mounting. Although
OF large size, the trunk was unusually
light in weight, and was easily handled,
Will the central bands which surround
ed it were a sufficient guarantee of it's
stability.
But it was on the inside of the affair
that the popularity which gives it the
name of bureau was disclosed and
was made apparent at once when the
lid was raised. In the lid were two
shallow but good-siZed drawers for the
reception of the more delicate articles
of woman's apparel, while above these
was deeper drawer with cOmpart-
mentS for hats and bOnnets. The body
OF the trunk was spacious and capable
of holding large quantity of dresses,
etc., when closely packed.
Here is something new exclusively
for mems use." the dealer proceeded, as
he pulled another but smaller trunk
from somber pile. "and it is counter
part of the first in point of neatness and
economy of space"
On raising the cover a tray containing
four compartments was revealed, with
separate places for shirts. collars and
cuffs, ScarfS and socks. The partitions
separating the different parts can be re-
moved at pleasure. Underneath the
compartments for dress suit and over
coat. while the body of the trunk was
divided into four deep parts for the re-
ceptlon of light hat, to be put in side
wise, boots and shoes, soiled linen and
general articles of wear. If necessary,
the partitions in the body of the trunk
can be readily taken out to give more
space for general use.

DAMAGE BY LIGHTNING.
Severe electrical Storm in New
York City---Great Deal of Dam
age RenOrted. !.

New YORK, Aug. 4.-Heavy rain and
lightning prevailed in this city tonight.
The lightning in the telegraph offices
caused much alarm, while the rain came
down in torrents. A bolt of light
ming ran from the electric
light wire of the United States Illu-
minating company to their building at
the foot of East Twenty-ninth street,
and set fire to the roof. The firemen,
assisted by the heavy rain, extingmshed
the flames, and only $500 damage
was done. But all the lights of that
tween Fifty-second and One Hundred
and Forty-frst street, were put out and
two dynamos, valued at 5000, ruined.
Destruction of churches, barns and other

Returns to His First Love.

Johnny Sowders, who at the bidding
of Manager Barnes transferred his af
fections and abilities to the Minneapo
lis team short time since, will put on
st. Paul uniform again. When Sow
ders was handed over body and breecheS
to Minneapolis in exchange for Brynan
and liberal cash bonus, some sort of
an agreement was entered into by Man
ayers Barnes and Gooding whereby
SowderS was to be transferred back to
st. Paul in case Mr.. Barnes should re-
quire his services. Judging by the luck
the Apostles have had in Omaha, Sow
ders, and any other good base ball tWirl-
er, is needed just now, and Manager
Barnes wired Manager Gooding yester
day to instruct Sowders to report at
Sioux City to-day, which he will do.
He will pitch in at least one of the
games with the Cornhuskers and return
to this city next Wednesday with the
team, which will play the four games
scheduled for Chicago Aug. 8, 9, 10 and
II on the home grounds. Friends OF
Sowders and the team will be glad to
learn that the little pitcher is again
with the st. PaulS.

When Manager Gooding completed
his arrangements for transferring the
Minneapolis team to Davenport, he tel
egraphed to Morton. asking him to call
a meeting of the association. Instead
of responding, Morton at once posted to
Minneapolis himself. And thereby
hangs a tale. The Chicago Maroons
have never paid expenses at Chicago,
and Morton has been looking up an
available point to which to remove
them. When he heard of the Daven-
port deal, he hit on Minneapolis at once,
and made an offer, which is that COM
pany be organized here and $1,000 be
be paid for the team and franchise.
Spaulding has been here since
Tuesday, and he and Morton
ference at which the plan
is supposed to have been fixed up. The
scheme lSto organize company with
capital of $4,000, of which $1,000 is to
go out at once for the franchise and
players, and the remainder to be held
for working capital. This season will
be played out on the old grounds, and
when fall comes arrangements will be
made to launch out next season on
grand scale, with grounds at Lake Har-
riet or elsewhere On the moter line. The
Chicago team now stands seventh on
the list and can play good ball, though
it has been Iun down and is weakened
by the sale of Long and Lang to Kansas
City. The salary list IS S2,250, while
that of the Minneapolis team is S2,75O

up the Chicago league team for series
of games, after the season, by which the
local treasury may be replenished. This
is the plan, and thase interested say it
