Athletic Not Entitled 10 Them.
In the Bierbauer and Stovey cases he
said that the Athletic club did reserve
them in 1889 to play with the Athletics in
1890, but they jumped their reservation and
played with the Players league in 1890.
The Athletic club was expelled from the
association in 1890, and neither Bierbauer
or Stovey were reserved by that club for
1891. Therefore, in the opinion Of the board
of control. the Athletics are not entitled
TO their services. When Mr.. Thurman

the Plaza last evening, and to say that
the vast assemblage thoroughly enjoyed
it would be putting the truth in very
mild form.
The descriptive piece, 1.-The Chinese

comprised Chinese josh-house perform
ance, with Chinese orchestra, under the
direction of Yah Tie (William Bryant),
which was repeated. The whole number
was finely presented.

The committee did some other busi-
ness, the most important of which was to
order the construction of a new reporters
stand at Agricultural Park, to replace the
dilapidated concern now there. This re-
form was asked for by the proprietors
and managers Of the newspapers of this
city. The board, by its action, will re-
ceive the blessings of the press represent
atives who are sent to the Park to report
the races and other events.
The intention is 10 drop the new stand
n little lower than the present one, so
that the occupants can have better view,
through the opening in the judges stand
Of the starters in three-quarter-mil
races. 1t will be provided with folding
stairway, so that reporters may descend
at any time to the pool-stand without be-
ing compelled TO work their way over q
barricade and through the crowded grand
stand. The new structure will be guarded
at the stairway, so that none can gain ad-
mission thereto except the duly accredited
correspondents of the daily papers.
In front of the reporters stand, but SO
low as not TO interfere with them, will be
placed a box or stand for the timers
of the races, where they viii be safe from
annoyance or interference by outsiders.
That portion Of the judges stand hereto

AN ENJOYABLE AFFAIR

Reception by the Young women's
Christian Association.
A very pleasant time was bad last even
ing at the rooms of the Young Women's
Christian Association on Ninth street.
The guests were the clergymen of the
city, the directors of the Young Mems
Christian Association, with their wives,
and the newly-arrived Secretary, John
l.. Speares. The entertainers were the
Secretary, Miss Alice Andrews, and the
Board of Directors OF the Young Women's
Christian Association.
After brief prayer by Rev. Mr. Mas
sey piano solo by Miss Dunn was
rendered in excellent style.
The address of welcome on behalf of
the ladies was made by Miss Barclay.
This was followed by vocal duet by
Miss Andrews and Mr.. Longbottom,
Bright Be Our Pathway" which was
appreciated by the audience.
a brief but impressive address by Rev.
Mr.. Massey was eXtannounced. The rev.
erend gentlemen alluded to the fact that
California had not advanced so rapidly in
population, wealth and Importance as
some of the States of the Middle West.
and he found Il partial explanation of
this in tile lowered moral tone of our
communities and the Indifference Of the
people to the gross immortality and law
lessness in their midst. This must in
eyitably react upon the material pros
perity of the country.
The Rev. Mr.. Hutchins followed with q
brief address full of encouragement and
support.
John L. Speares then spoke for the
Young Mems Association, and gave some
interesting information concerning the
workings ofthe Young Women's Associa-
ton in the Eastern States. 1t is expected
that the two associations will be mutually
helpful to each other and cordially CO.
operate in the good work for the moral
and social betterment Of our city, and ey-
eryhody is pledged to this end.
Ice cream and cake, served in dainty
style, ended the programme, and every
