Jack Newman is the name of a tall
wiry young man who has been secured
by the Los Angeles club for the season
of 1892. This city can be congratulated
upon landing this player, as several
clubs were red hot after him. Newman
expects to play the game OF his life this
season. He is "a years old, is 5 feet II 4
inches high, and scales 17O pounds.
His first professional engagement was
with Bloomington, OF the Illinois and
Iowa league, in 1888. The next year
Newman was with Peoria, in the Inter
state league. He caught seventy con-
secutive games, and led the entire league
in batting, with an average of .374.
The splendid work OF Newman at
tracted the attention of the major
leagues and he was signed by the
Brooklyn club, but as that club had a
plethora of good catchers, Newman was
transferred to Toronto, of the Interna-
tional league, without trial. The
Canadian club disbanded and Omaha
secured Newman, whose battery average
that year was 1922 Omaha signed New
man again. but he was released early in
the season and played with Denver, but
owing to i'll health, Newman did not
play the game he was capable of and
was released, although he had the team
in battery. Newman says that he is
now big and strong and in good health
and is confident that he will put up the
best ball in his career. Newman is a
very useful man. He can play almost
any position. However, he will catch
and play in the out6eld for ''the
Angels" He is very quiet, unassum-
ing sort OF q fellow and is sure to make
record in the California league.

Special Correspondence to the HERALD.
POMONA, March Is.
We understand that the Kingsley
tract people are receding from their
proposed secession from the city. The
petitions are in circulation, however, in
the other outside sections of the city,
and it is said the proposition will be
pushed. The advocates of division say
enough votes can be secured to assure
the success of the movement without
the Kingsley tract. The Kingsley tract
people want more school advantages than
have yet been accorded them. They
say that in other districts all studies up
to the ninth year are taught, while in
this school, after pupils pass the fifth
year, they must come all the way to the
schools down in the city. This is an in
convenience surely, and one which
should never have been imposed upon
the people.

The San Diego Sun accounts for the
collapse of the San Diego team through
nervousness. The following extracts are
made from Captain Friends truly orig.
inal account:
Fact of the matter is that very few OF
the critical audience knew how little
right they had to kick, for the men who
played against our boys in that game
were professionals, who drew more sal.
ary for playing ball in eastern and west
ern clubs last year than our congress-
ical halls Tf the nation. ~Hr'
The Sun only wonders that some OF
the local team were not carried from the
field with fatal attack of nervous pros
tration. As it turns out, the lads have
recovered from their unnecessary fright,
having become acquainted with "the
travelling terrors,' and on Wednesday
afternoon, when the second game is
played, if they don't play ball according
to the capacity that slumbereth beneath
their shirt frouts, the public will have
''a great big kick coming"
It is supposed by many that 'the Los
Angeles team is made up of Los Angeles
people. This is great mistake.
They are all crack men from crack
clubs, and all but one, who is playing
his first professional engagement, are
professionals of the deepest dye. For
instance, Stafford and Roach, both
great pitchers, were with the Lincoln,
Neb., team last season, and Rogers, the
catcher, was also with this club. Think
of such battery, after playing together
in the Northwestern association during
an entire season. Newman, another
''stonewall" catcher, played last season
with the Omaha team, of the same as

bet 500 that the best team that can be

Profession Versus Business.

A friend of mine, physician, did a
rich manufacturer vast service in the
way of his profession. When the obliged
man asked for his account he requested
deduction for prompt payment, and
this being declined, grumbled over the
amount. The doctor was immovable.
"You are at liberty" he said, Ito pay
nothing or all" But this is business, !"

like any other business?" lam not a

Finally the bill was paid, and then the
manufacturer, suddenly changing his
tone, said, "Well, now that the business
is completed, l should like you to accept
this as a slight proof Of our gratitude. "
1t was check for thrice the amount of
the debt. The doctor said, "No; never
