old-time player, who became famous as an
outfielder for the Athletics. He also
played with Worcester, Providence and
other strong clubs. For the past few
years he has been umpiring, and last sea-
son officiated in the Western Association.

give up playing.

tracts with both Spokane and Portland by
Polhemus, but also contains the notice OF

cordance with the agreement reached be-
tween John S. Barnes and the Spokane
officials. by which the latter agreed to re-
lease all claim to their last seasons play
ers who had signed with Portland with
the exception of Polhemus. To take
"Polly's" place in right field Barnes has
secured Freddy" Mcmillan, a clever
fielder, good batter and fast base runner.
He played with the Duluth club in 1856,
when it won the championship of the
Northwestern League. In 1883 he was
with another team of pennant winners at
Lima, O., in the Tri-State League. In
1889 he was with Toronto in the Inter
national League, and in 1890 he played for
the second time with a champion team of

TACOMA, April Especial. Small par

the practice work of the Tacoma league
team at the local grounds. Without ex-
ception, from Sippi down, the members of
the team do not display any disinclina-
ton to work. The team work is prospect
lively very good, and there is a pleasing
absence of growing and ungentlemanly
conduct. They are jolly, good-natured,
hard-working lot of men, and will keep
the other teams guessing.

SENSIBLE VIEWS
The Proposed Plan for the Distribu-
ton of Fruit.
TLos Angeles Herald, August 18TH


LOS Angeles Herald, August 3th.I
W. II. Mills, since leaving the editorial
tripod, has proved himself to be one of
the most sagacious and useful men in
California. He first came to The fore with
his sensible scheme for the sale and sub
division OF cur large ranches. thus as
surfing 10 the intending Immigrant lands
on eligible terms. His latest plans have
looked to the placing Of California fruits
in the London markets, and to more
intelligent and syStematized distribution
OF them in our own country. This latter
market can be Indefinitely expanded.
his calculation is that, just now, we
scarcely reach more than 5000, 900 OF the
10,OJ0.C00 people OF the United States. lie
sees the great advantages of supplying
the large population which lies between
Los Angeles and the Missouri River with
California fruit specialties. To do this
effectively it will be necessary for the
railway to depart from a rule which it
has hitherto maintained and allow car
load lots TO be broken i3l t10RSitu. This
would surely be u most enlightened
policy, and it would doubtless be followed
by pecuniary results satisfactory 10 the
railway. There IS an immense territory
between California and the Missouri
River which can now take great quanti-
ties OF our staples, aud this market will
grow to prod!gious proportions in the
future. Arizona, New Mexico, Utah,
Nevada, Oregon, Washington, Wyoming,
Idaho, Montana, Colorado, Kansas, Ne
braska and Iowa will always rely upon
California for fruit staples. Mr.. Mills has
the right ideas about these matters, and us
he is justly influential with the railway
nagnates ut the corner OF Fourth and
Townsend streets it Is TO be hoped that be
will be able 10 obtain this important con-
cession for our shippers. Ii the Southern
Pacific shall once lead the way we may
be assured that the Santa Fe will follow
suit. II is an anomaly that, owing to the
peculiar railway policy respecting ship
ments in carload lots, our own immediate
market has been practically neglected.

Perhaps and perhaps not. However that
may be, he has no excuse for his misery
If it is produced by nervousness, so long
as he neglects to reinforce his enfeebled
nerves through the medium of improved
digestion. He can secure this by the reg
ular use of Hostetter's Stomach Bitters,
agrateful tonic and tranquillizer. 1t should
never be forgotten that the brain-which is
the headquarters Of the nervous SYSTEM
and the stomach bear the closest relations
one to the other, and that debility under
the waistband produce correlatiye dis
turbance in the organ of thought. Give,
however, a quietus to nervousness and
headaches by a reform begun at the foun-
tain head by the Bitters. Take it, also, for

Mayor Comstock Has Concluded to
Buy an Ambulance.
Mayor Comstock made an order yester-
day that viii probably take a load off
General Marines mind. That gentle
man has been appealing to the City Trus-
tees for more than year to purchase an
ambulance and patrol wagon for the use
of the police department and Receiving
Hospital, and at last the Mayor has
found it necessary to act in that direction.
OF Late the bills for express wagons and
hack hire. for hauling sick people and
DRINKS, have been so heavy that Mayor
Comstock has come to the conclusion that
the city can do that kind of service on its
own hook, and do it better than in the old
way. So yesterday he notified Chief of
Police Rodgers that the latter might go
ahead and select suitable vehicle at an
expense not to exceed $3.50.
The intention is to have it placed in
charge of Special Officer Greer for the
day service, who viii use his own horse,

1t is our earnest desire to impress upon

the service offered by the Wisconsin Cen
tral Lines to Milwaukee, Chicago and all
points East and South. Two fast trains
leave St. Paul, Minneapolis and Duluth
daily, equipped with Pullman Vestibuled
Drawing Room Sleepers, Dining Cars and
Car Service is unsurpassed, which accounts,
to a great degree, for the popularity OF this
line. The Wisconsin Central Lines, in con-
nection with Northern Pacific r. r., is the
