League Team and the Amateurs to
Cross Rats.
Local baseball enthusiasts are awaiting
with impotence the first game Of the sea-
son to be played tomorrow afternoon be-
tween the League team and the Maroons
at the Madison street park. Everything
seems to indicate that large crowd will
go out to the grounds to get their first
view of the work of Powell's men. The
fans" who have been watching the prac-
tice of the players are on the tiptoe of ex-
pectancy to see them work together as q
team, and are already talking Of cham
pionships and pennants.
The management is spa1ng no pains to
cater to the enjoyment and comfort Of the
spectators. Some of their surplus cash
has been expended in the purchase of .
horse, and under the guiding hand of
Groundkeeper Curry it is at work raking
and scraping the grounds into condition.
II there are no more heavy rains to inter-
fere they will be in excellent shape.
Manager Powell had decided to pitch
Freeman during part of the game. but he
will probably not be able to go in, having
strained tendon in his arm. 1t is likely
that keenan, will pitch part of the innings
and Camp the remainder. Curry and
Coombs are down to do the twirling for
the Maroons.
The amateurs will have out strong
team and promise to make things interest,"

THE LUMBER COMBINE.
II II Formed with Nearly All the Lum-
Der DeAlera I'm 1t.

At the meeting of the lumbermen Of the
city last night permanent organization
was formed, and an advance in prices was
agreed to, to take effect Monday next.
1t is claimed that nearly all the firms in
the city and suburbs are in the combina-
ton, and that those which have not joined
have agreed to stand by the prices
established by the association. Neither
the conditions of the agreement nor the
price list would be made public last night,
but from what could be learned, the adj
vance is to be about 81 per thousand on
common lumber, which will make the
price $40 according to the new scale.
Another meeting will be held on the 30th
of April for the election of permanent Off
GERS. The temporary officers are Mr.. Ed
win Louderback, of the Mechanics Mill
and Lumber Company, temporary presi-
dent, and Mr.. John Carey, of the Hart
Lumber Company, temporary secretary.

THO Myssery Of seeesd Growth seresss.

THO Asyssery Of seeend Growth Forests.
Ansong the curious cniglnas of nature
which have remained unsolved to the
present day is the growth OF forest
upon the site once occupied by one
which differed in character from the
latter growth. Some have suppoeed
that the seeds from which the second
fopest sesans had been lying undeveI
sped in the ground for great length
on time, perhaps centuries, but the i'm
probability of seeds retaining their
vitality for such q length Of time, and
under the conditions to which they
would necessarily be exposed, makes
that theory rather implausiblei and,
besides, this speculation fails to account
for the origin Of the seeds necessary to
produce the second growth. What
reader can explain this riddle or tell US

POLES AND WIRES CUT DOWN

Mayor shakespearo OF New Orleans shuts
Out the Postal Telegraph Company.
NEW ORLEANS. July 2.-Mayor Shakespeare
ordered tho poles and wires OF the Postal
telegraph Company to be cut down to-day.
A few years ago the City Council. after con-
sidertng the wire nuisance. came to tho con-
clusion that It would be Ill advised to put
the wires under ground on account Of the
great humidity Of the soil and that the tower
system OF strinRing them overhead would be
preferable. The Louisiana Tower Company
was authorized to ereot towers 100 feet high at
each street corner and the various telephone.
telegraph. and other companies were required
to string their wires on these towers. paying
the company yearly rental. Since then the
Tower Company has been actively at work.
and has erected many towors at an average
cost OF So, 900 each. but none OF the telegraph
or telephone companies has used them.
The Postal Telegraph Company applied to
sion to enter New Orleans promising to con-
struot subways and nut it's wires under ground.
SO that there would be n pole nuisance.
The Council refused to allow the wires to bs
laid under ground: and sa rEdersd them to 6s
TO do this. ami strung its wires to It's office on
st. Charles street on poles already erected. Act
ing under Instructions from the Council the
Mayor to-day sont police force around with
axes and cgs ~. down the a,cles and wires.
Postal Telegraph Com pany threatens q suit for
thar. while other cities favor the underground
system and cnmrel its adoption. New Orleans
action the company is shut out Of New
Orleana.
