Stockholders of the New Haven Club
Organize Manager Shannon Will
Attend the League Meeting with the
$1,000 Guarantee - Exh ibtti o N
Games on April and 16.
A largely attended meeting of the stock
holders of the New Haven baseball club
was held in the parlors of the Tontine
last evening. The meeting was called to
order and Frank H. Kelley was made
clerk. After the usual bylaws had been
adopted, n. S. Munson and Geo. T. White
were appointed a nominating committee
and they suggested the following officers,
who were unanimously elected: William
Nicely, president; Eugene McKenna, secre-
tary and treasurer; William Nicely, Even
Mcintyre, Geo. T. White, Frank II. Kel-
ley and James Cunningham, directors.
The meeting was very enthusiastic and
the thousand and one essential pre-
liminary arrangements were attended to
with dispatch. The home club will play
exhibition games with the Providence club
on Good Friday, April Is, and on April 16.
At the close of the stockholders meeting
the directors met and instructed the treas
urer to collect the subscribed stock at once.
Manager Shannon was deputed to attend
the meeting of the league at Albany to-day
and was provided with the necessary guar
antee deposit of 1000.
At the meeting of the league to-day the
schedule will be made out and the players
will be assigned. Probably the meeting
will last for two days. Manager Shannon
hopes to get Gruber and Donnelly and per-
haps several other favorites. 'Dan" is 60
ing to "play ball' this summer and with
any sort of luck New Haven will no doubt
end the season pretty nearly at the top.

AN INNOVATION In
INFANTS VEHICLES.

The old carriage may be
weakened in the springs and
loose in the wheels. If it is,
why not buy new? This one
has body which is readily re-
versed so that baby faces
mamma. The body is detach-
able, too, forming a house
wagon on casters, that moves
without noise. There is a ham
die for pushing or pulling.
and if you wish to cover the
little new conner with a canopy
of mosquito netting, it can be
adjusted at any angle to hold
it up. Maybe yon think a
baby carriage combining so
many advantages is complied
ted and hard to understand.
But it isn't. It's as easily ma
nipulated as a dustpan.
Here's another. The body
is rattan, finished in the nat.
ural color. and the upholstery
is good. So are the springs
and running gear. It's not
expensive: $500.

First Game This Afternoon - The

the Nine - Closely ontested Game
With the Bean Eaters "A Large
Crowd Expected.
The first game of the season will be
played at the field this afternoon with the
Boston League team. The Yale men will
be present in full force, for at this game
the relative merits of the candidates can
be judged. Those who play for the first
time will have chance to show whether
they are merely men who show up well in
practice and get ratified In game, or
whether they have the real baseball material
in them. The nine will probably play as fol-
lows; Bowers '92, p; Jackson '92 s., c.;
Carter '95, LIST b.; Norton, J.. S., I'd b.;
Murphy 1913, g. g., Kedzie '95 s., Sd b.
Case '94, l. f.; Beall '93, C. f., and Rustin
"a s.. t. f.
OF these men only Bowers, Murphy,
Case and Besll were ON the nine last year
jackson has made very hard try for
catcher for the last two years and 10 show
| ing up 80 we'll this year that he will prob
ably play regularly in that position. He
| is a fair batter, good catcher, but is
| rather slow in throwing to second. but is
| sure. Carter entered with big baseball
| record and was sure of position from
| the start. He covers first we'll and his
throwing to third is superb. His weak
est point is his batting. Norton played
on last years Dartmouth nine and under
stands the game through and through.
He is one of the quickest men on the
team and is fair batter. Kedzie played
on his class nine last year and is a willing
worker. With practice he will cover
third we'll. He is fair batter. Rustir
is good fielder and a fair batter. The
weakest place in the whole nine is il
the box. Since the great Stage left Yale
good and effective pitchers have been hare
to find. Bowers does we'll and is hare
worker, but is easy to hit after the frs
game. The team is fully as good as las
year, and it remains to be seen if it is no
better. and, with the practices it will get
should show up well against Harvard ant
Princeton.
II A great deal Of interest will attach t.
the games this afternoon and Wednesda
on account of the strong, well-discipline'
} team which will oppose them. In interes
these games will be second only to thos
! with Harvard and Princeton and are e
opening for the baseball season in thi
: city. Boston will have strong pitchers i

| the abilities of the Yale men to use th
t stick. Every effort will be made by til
Q boys in blue and the games will surely b

what Crescendo Says About Church


What CrescendO Says About Church
Cho1rs.
To the Editor OF the JOURNAL AND COURIER:
The professional singer here in New Ha-
ven feels pretty sore when you speak about
church choirs and salaries. And why. Be-
cause so many of the churches which for
merly paid good salaries and employed
frst-rate professional singers are now cry
ing "too poor" and contenting themselves
with young and inexperienced voices,
which they caught at very small salary.
Lately there has been grand exodus of
our singers. And whys Because other
places want them badly and are willing to
pay good salaries. The idea of money
saving is ofttimes carried too far in this
matter. The musical committee is chosen
entirely for its business ability and with
no regard to its musical skill and knowl-
edge. This committee will look over the
choir, and say that too much money is ex-
pended for it, so the salaries must be cut
down. Immediately there is strike and
the choir leaves. The s'musical" commit
tee announces that they are ready to ex-
anime candidates in regard to their fitness.
Several young, fresh voices may apply,
whose owners have no experience, and no
skill in expression, but they will sing
for a very small amount, therefore
"money saved is money earned" ergo,
these are the chosen. Now it may be that
these voices won't harmonic in the small
est degree; the soprano may drown out the
rest of the choir, the bass show powers of
endurance which would brighten Whitney,
and the other pats try to show solos obli-
cato at the most inopportune time, but
still no money is lost, but the thorough
harmony and entire concord of voices is
lacking. Before long volunteer choir
will take its place in the seats, and that
will be followed by congregational sing
ing, and still the committee wonder why
the people are dissatisfied. Now praise
undoubtedly has place in divine worship
as we'll as prayer, and if the minister is
well paid land that is rare) why shouldn't
the choir be? If anybody thinks New
Haven people don't like fine church music,
let them look over the audience when
church with fine choir adj
vertises a praise service or special
music. What better support can minis
ter get for a good sermon than to have
good singing by a choir who can render
the pieces understandingly and with effect.
that there was no evil thought or deed
which could be the direct outcome of
music. But he didn't say anything about
noise in its relation to sin. 1t seems as if
New Haven was q training school for good
singers, but as fast as they could they
graduated. If man was going to buy q
horse he never would get man because he
was frst-class carpenter to judge the
horse. He would certainly be out of
pocket in the end. So why not put skilled
musicians on church music committed
A stipulated sum may be set apart. to use in
music and in that way put limit to sx-
pense, but, while business is business,
music is music.

s,in Alarm OF Fire Last Evening.

At about $50 o'clock last evening the
men at the house of steamer 2 and truck
1 responded to still alarm for a FIRE in
the second story of the frame building
$50 Grand avenue. The fire was caused
by the explosion of can of alcohol, which
was near a stove. The fire was easily ex-
tinguished by the firemen, but not before
considerable damage had been done. A
lot of clothes hanging near the stove were
destroyed and the woodwork and ceiling
badly scorched. A lady>living in the house
had her hair badly sipged in trying to
subdue the flames. A pet cat was also
left minus ny hair. The damage to the
house, which is covered by insurance, will
amount to about 500. The premises are
occupied by Mr.. George Root, the baker.
