BASE BALL NEWS.

BROOKLYN, March 5-The American
base ball association began its spring meet
ing here today. Mr.. Phelps, of Louisville,
Offered the following resolutions:
Whereas, The Kansas City Base Ball as
ISOLATION: has been engaged before the
board of arbitration in dispute as to the
right of the club to occupy Kansas City to
the exclusion of other parties who are by
unfair means endeavoring to get possession
of said franchise; and
Whereas, Said board of arbitration was
unable toagree upon the question, although
i'm the opinion of the American associa-
ton the evidence produced by the Kansas
City base ball association was sufficient to
establish that the franchise of the western
association was obtained by their agent
and properly injured to their benefit; be it,
therefore,
Resolved, That the members of the
American Base Ball association clubs
hereby express their faith in and admira-
ton for the effort made by said Kansas
City base ball club and to
rid it of anything improper or
in any wise tainted with dishonesty or
fraud, that we hereby express our faith in
and avow the correctness of the position
taken by the Kansas City base ball asso-
citation in this matter and offer them our
assistance and hearty cooperation in their
efforts at frowning down and defeating
dishonesty in base hall matters.

A Hint to the Housewife.

Stewed apples, pears and plums ere favor
lite articles of diet. For breakfast or lunch
con, in the dining room or in the nursery,
there are few table dishes more wholesome
and more delicious than well stewed fruit
served up with cream or custard. There are
many persons, however, who cannot eat it
or the excess of sugar necessary to make it
palatable. Sugar does not, of course, coun-
teract acidity; it only DISCUSSES it, and its use
in large quantities is calculated to retard di-
gestion. The housewife may, therefore, be
grateful for the reminder that q pinch-a
very small pinch-of bicarbonate Of soda,
sprinkled over the fruit previously to cook
ing, will save sugar, and will render the dish
at once more palatable and more wholesome

The Coming Women.

Nothing in the United States struck me
more than the fact that the remarkable in
tellsctual progress Of that country is very
largely due to the efforts Of American women,
who edit many of the most powerful maya
zines and newspapers, take part in the dis
cussion of every question of the public
interest, and exercise an important influence
upon the growth and tendencies Of literature
and art. Indeed, the women of America
are the one class in the community that en-
joys that leisure which is so necessary for
culture. The men are, as O rule, so absorbed
in business, that the task of bringing some
element Of form into the chaos of daily life is
left almost entirely to the opposite sex, and
an eminent Bostonian once assured me that
In the Twentieth century the whole culture Of
his country would be in petticoatS

Society at Washington is organized upon
the most singular principle, mingling exclu-
siveness, which is q tendency in all society,
with quasi public character, which arises
from the official position held by the hns-
bands or fathers Of most Of the ladies who
entertain The kind Of society which is most
intoxicating to the women folirs here is this
half private, half public variety. 1t is like
holding court or levee at which homage
is paid to the reigning hostess. All official
ladies have their day for receiving callers,
and any respectable person Is permitted to
present himself and is cordially welcomed,
passed along the line of ladies who are re-
ceiying and turned over to the courtesy Of
one or two pretty girls, who preside at the
refreshment table There is no intimacy in a
call of this kind-hardly acquaintanceship,
only Difference to the hostess and her assist
ants, which seems to be sweet incense to them
ALL
There is burlesque side to the picture. A
hostess feels that she is in a position, more or
less, of an actress, and she does not wish to
play to empty benches. The highest compli-
ment that can be paid to her is full house.
This often sets the ladies to contrive to draw
great audiences as it might be called. Now
a star is popular on the stage-sometimes be-
cause of the setting of the piece, sometimes
because Of the strength of the support. A
Washington hostess who is ambitious to ex-
Gel often resorts to the devices OF the actress
to make her show success. She must have
strong support, and she is anxious to have
the pretty girls of the capital receive with
her to help to attract the crowd her way. A
pretty girl can oftentimes lead a company of
young men from one house to another with
her, and, of course, prize of this kind is
much sought for by ladies who receive
