He Will Succeed DR.. Welsh on the
Health 30 ard,
The new board of health held its first
monthly meeting at the Offices of the
board yesterday. The entire board
wac present, together with Mayor
Stuart and President Ball, late Of the
council committee on health, Alder
men Gilden, Gezon and Wurzburg were
called in to confer with the board on
the disposition of the Weiden nuisance
case. The last president of the board
DR.. Emmett Welsh, being the retiring
member, j. d. Robinson was called TO
the chair. The election OF president
resulted IN the choosing of j. d. Robin
son, one vote being cast for
c. w. Calkins. Petitions were read
from various taxpayers who asked that
certain persons be appointed as sani-
tary inspectors. Among the names
recommended were those of w. X.
Adams, II. Gilkcns, James Lampham,
Hiram Corbin and Il. ii. Cady. The
petitions were received and placed on
file. A. A. Stevens, +. F. Dooty. X.
Shoemaker and c. e. Barnes presented
applications in their own names for the
same positions. The board decided
that owing to the inclemency of the
weather it was not necessary TO ap,
point new sanitary inspectors, and the
reappointment of the present ones was
not considered. The board will not
elect Its secretary until the next meet
ing.
The Weiden nuisance case was then
taken up by the board and the council
committee on health. City Attorney
Taylor appeared before the Joint com
mittee and advocated taking the case
TO the supreme court ~ it would prove
test case and give the city some sound
basis for future action concerning nui.

city grows. IL no appeal is made
against the decision OF the superior
court il will be a precedent for Others
who may conduct business deleterIous

of the board Gard that the rending works
was q positive nuisance, and the odors
from the place vile and injurious tc

the works may have been all right ten
years ago, said the mayor. but at pres
ent they we're one-half mile inside the
city limits and ought to be removed

be appealed 70 the supreme court. The
JOINT committee unanimously coucur

board then listened to large grist oil

were referred 10 the proper COMMITTEES.

Sam Wise has been signed to play
with Washington next season.
Jim ORourke and Jack Boyle are
slated for Washington next season.
Farrell. Baldwin, Shugart and Ehret
are the only Pittsburgh players remain
ing unsigned.
Why should not baseball players be
good for nearly as many years Of serv-
ice as cricketers? Put the pitchers
back and give all the other players a
chance for good work and long service.
Boston and Cleveland will be asked
to give up some Of their star players to
strengthen the weaker teams and
equalize the playing strength more
evenly. OF course they will do this
without . murmur.
1t is announced by President Young
that there will be but one set of Official
averages this year in spite OF the two
championships. The decision is . wise
one. 1t will avoid confusion and give
far tho better satisfaction.
A great infeid for the Giants for next
season would be: Brouthers, first base;
Ward, second base; Danny Richardson,
shortstop, and Latham, third base. 1t
is not 50 improbable that such might
be the case - it now looks. either.

The proposed new diamond is . start
ling innovation, but the more IL is
studied the more favorably it impress

home base and four additional bases in
stead of three as now. This extra base
would not, however, necessitate az ad-

make the game ten men and ten In

excellent critics. Under the new sys-
tenn four men could attend to the in
field as now-the first baseman and SEQ
ond baseman taking care Of their usual
bases, the short stop becoming third
baseman. while the present third base
man would be fourth baseman- A
glance at the diagram viii show that
the new base Lines would throw first and
fourth bases about ten feet further out
than the present base lines, thus max
ing q very much larger area for fair
balls. thereby increasing the batting
very considerably, besides reducing the
number of foul balls
II will be observed that the distances
from second base to third base and
from third base to fourth base are each
but 20 feet This would give the base
runners better chance OF stealing bases
Il is true, the ca.cher's throwing dis
tance is decreased from about 12S or l29
feet TO 120 or IL feet. and he Is IN a
better position 70 throw-the ball going
across the diamond aud there
