BASE HITS.

Jack Lynch, the. old Metropolitan pitcher,
lost every game he pitched for Lowell, and
has been released
President Young says the Phillies will pull
up on the leaders later in the race. He has
great faith in Harry Wright
John Manning has refused an offer of $500
per month to become a Southern league UNI
pire.
Pittsburg and Washington are doing the
poorest fielding in the League.
Rochester has signed a new pitcher named
Agan. He showed up well in practice.
Goodwin, of the Salems, leads tho batting
in the New England league. His average is
something over 800.
The season of 1888 bids fair to be the great
est in the history of baseball
The rule placing bases on balls in the error
column is catching it all around.
The Detroits were after Gunson, q catckr
on the Kansas City Western League club.
Tn management of the latter club refused
nm offer of l,5OO for his release.
No less than eightof Louisville,s team have
hair bordering in color on the red. The
white horse combination is Hecker, Smith,
Werrick, Ramsey, Browning, Wolf, White
and Mack.
1t is a rule of the New England league that
when two balls have been used in a cham
pionship game, practice balls may be used.
New Orleans has about dropped negotia-
lions for Duffy. Chicago not only wanted big
money for his release, but tho youngster ex-
pected a very high figure for his services.
The veteran player, Jack Manning, tells
some good stories of the Boston nine OF 1878.
Talk about winning a game with three hits
as the Bostons did the other day at Philadel-
phia, that's nothing" said Jack. "Why, the
nine we had in Cleveland in rs won n gamo
from the Cincinnati club. They made four
teen hits and we got two. Snyder and Bond
was the battery. Wenot only beat them, but
We shut them out"
John Hatfield's great throw of 1888 yards,
one foot and seven inches was twice beaten
by Ed Crane, now with the New York Giants.
Crane made a throw of 1856 yards one inch
at. the Cincinnati Union park in 1854, and
one day later, in St Louis, threw 1874 yards.
Neither Of these performances went on
record, for the reason that they were not
properly authenticated. Hatfield's throw
was made away back in tho seventies. and,
with the exception of Cranes performances,
has never been equaled. The Cincinnati En-
quirer is anxious to ascertain If there is not
some ball player in tho country who can beat
it, and therefore offers n handsome medal.
A Pittsburg reporter suggested to Anson
that 1t was unfortunate for the Chicagos that
they could not meet the Detrolts while they
are playing poorly. t h captain promptly
replied' W don't van 1t, sir; we don't
want IL We will best the Detroits when they
arc IN tho pink of condition, and ask no odds
Of them at any stage. The Chicagos nre out
for the pennnnt this year, and must have 1t.
You people are not quite due yet, but Chicago
Is ripe for it We have a stronger nine THAI
last year. Chicago has been furnishing SlO,-
900 players to the country for several years,
and we will have some more of them on hand
next fall We have disposed OF several of our
star performers, and now we propose to go in
with an every day lot of men and win the
flag"

Text of Judge Thomas Instructions

Washington county adopted local
option last winter, and Judge Thomas,
in his charge to the grand jury, at the
late term of court in that county, used
the following language in regard to tie
effect of the law:
1.-The local option law having been
adopted in this county, no one is per-
mitted to sell, give away or barter in
any manner W hat tever any kind of in
toxicating liquor or beverage coatain-
ing alcohol. But in my opinion the
law does not prohibit licensed druggists
and pharmacists from selling intoxica-
tirg liquor for medicinal purposes on
the prescription of a regularly enrolled
ply ysician. 1t is true the language of
the local option act is general, and ap-
parently prohibits druggists and phar-
macjsts from selling anything for med
Icina! purposes except pure alcohol.
Section eight provides that nothing in
this act shall be SO construed as to pre-
vent to sale Of wine for sacrameutal
purposes, nor shall anything herein
contained prevent licensed druggists or
pharmacists from furnishing pure al
.cobol for medicinal. art, scientific and
mechanical purposes. There is diff
ference of opinion among lawyers and
judges as to the meaning of This pro-
visloii-some holding that druggists
and pharmacists can sell nothing but

The Inwardness OF the Strike.

Mr.. P. M. Arthur, chief of the r. L..
E., publishes the following in the Nec
York World:
I'VE were promised that engineers
should be paid as much as on neigh
boring roads. There was direct agree
ment. After a time we showed the
management that the agreement had
not b. en- kept, and ask ked for an increase
of the standard to that used by nine
tenths of the railroads in this country.
The officials curtly refused to keep
their agreement. A committee of the
engineers then called upon General
Manager Stone, and respectfully re-
quested conference. This as all the
answer they got: Strike and be damn
ed. / don't care what you do I'm
Of a strike at that time. The men
merely wanted to confer. After get
ting that answer they sent for Chief
Sargent and me. Mr.. Stone was more
gentlemanly to us, but he positively
refused any conference or discussion
upon any of the points at issue. He
gave us the impression that he courted
"a strike. We made other attempts to
get conference, but he would not list
en- to US. What were men to do udder
such circumstances? The road had
broken its agreement in regard tn
transportation for the engineers 10 and
from their homes. 1t had broken its
agreement to pay what it's neighbors
We're paying. When its men respect
fully begged the managers attentions
to these things the only answer they
got was: Strike and be damned. If
there had baen a confe renee we should
have heen ready to meet the company
more tnan half way in concession for
peace. From the first the managers Of
the Burlington seemed earnestly deter
mined that the men should strike. \
Not an engineer has weakened or ap-
piled for work on other roads, or gone
to begging, or fallen into want, or
caused any disturbance. We are satis-
fled with the way things are going; we
don't want any other road tied up for
our sakes, and we don't want the strike
to extend. Ii we are beaten by the
Burlington, and 1t can run as well
without us, all right. We have done
what we could to win dicate ourselves,
and there will be nothing more to dc. y

False Apposition.

We saw In the Danville Register few
days ago one of the most striking ex-
amples OF false opposition which We had
ever seen but as we make it q rule not
TO notice such errors we let it pass. The
Register, however. has come out and
"confessed the corn, and laughed over
its own misbap. Therefore We repro
duce the paragraph marked by an ex-
ample Of false opposition. 1t is as fol-
lows:
$50 far as this paper Is concerned
Judge Blackwell shall be treated fairly
and courteously. We shall not depart
from our custom and fling mud at him.
But as the representative Of the Repub-
lican party the Register will use every
possible means that is fair and honest to
defeat the Judge and send 7. q. Lester
to Congress.
The Register being q Democratic
paper, il soon saw for itself that it had
"put its foot in il. "
The Register may find in HoDasoN on
&" Errors IN English the best book
on the subject to be had-numerous ex-
amples of false opposition quoted from
the most distinguished of writers and
preachers, and others. The JETER in
scription here in Richmond furnishes a
good specimen of false opposition, as
Rev DR. ROBERT RYLAED and we tried
TO show several years ago.
