A Japanese Editor.

Editors may find some consolation in
the fact that they have inspired feelings
Of envy in the breasts of young Japa-
nese boy. A recent issue of an East In
dian paper contained the following note
"a schoolboy in Loerabaya was asked
to describe an editor of paper. He did
so in this way: An editor is the luckiest
man in the world He can go to a cir
Gus every afternoon and every evening
without paying cent. He can go also
to the court houses. the places of execu-
ton and the races.
He has free tickets to all theaters, re-
ceives presents at his office, and gets his
ears boxed too. He goes also to Prigen,
Malang or Lawang lplaces of amuse-
ment). He does not do this often, how
ever In one paper he can deny every
thing that was said in the previous one,
and he does so, as a rule. When other
people are already in bed, the editor is
still up. He stays up late to see what
happens. When grow big shall be-
come an editor. Then | can stay up
too.

First Cabinet Meeting.
(By telegraph TO the Dispstch.l

WASHINGTON, March THE steady
tramp, tramp Of the oflice-seekers sounded
through the White House ell day. There
was practically no cessation In the line OF
people who assembled the stairway leading
to the Presidents room. and nearly all
who came saw Mr.. Cleveland. They found
him in jovial humor, and he cracked
Jokes with old acquaintsnces whom he had
not seen since his departure from Wasn-
ington four years ago. While a large
numb Der Of those who saw the President
are candidates for Office. few of them at
tempted to press their claims, and con-
gressmen with long lists of constituents
who are willing to work for Uncle Sam
were discreet enough not TO ask for favors,
but simply to pay their respects.
The members of the Supreme Court,
with the exception of Chief-Justice Fuller
and Justice Harlan, came early in accord
ance with custom.
VIRGINIA AND NORTH CAROLINA.
Congressman Meredith. of Virginia, came
with q delegation of friends. Congress
man Henderson, of North Carolina, was on
O similar duty.
MT. Cleveland was so busy receiving
callers in his office that he did not go
down stairs to see the hundreds OF people
who were early waiting for him In the
East Room. The room becameso crowded
and the crowd outside awaiting admit
tance was SO great that the East Room was
cleared and O line formed so that people
might pass in and out and thus have an
opportunity of seeing the apartment.
Fully 5000 people went through the White
House in this Disappointing manner.
About noon. when the pressure OF OH
cial callers had somewhat slackened, the
President went down TO tho East Room to
receive line of visitors who had formed
with the hope of getting a sight OF him.
He shook hands with each conner. and
made each person feel that the smile OF
greeting was especially for him or her.
ALABAMA BosE-BUDs.
While the reception was in progress
Secretary Herbert came over from the
Navy Department and introduced to the
President two exceedingly pretty young
ladies from the Central Female College, of
Tuscaloosa, Ala, who desired to present
to the President white silk banner upon
which was engraved the programme OF
concert given at tine college last Saturday
night in honor of the Inauguration.
The young ladies were Miss Evelyn Byrd
and Miss Jennie Hester. They were dress
ed in white silk college gowns and wore
mortar board caps of the same material.
Representative Turpin, of Alabama, and
his daughter, Miss ANNE Turpin, accom-
panied them.
Miss Hester made short presentation

present. complimented the young ladies
on their good looks, and told them he

and keep their visit as pleasant recollec-
ton. The Young ladies were much grati-
fed at the Presidents kind words.

NATIONAL BASe-BALLlSTS.
Revision of Playing Rules-rhe Principal
Changes blade.
(By telegraph to tho Dispatch. ]


New YORK, March s.-The spring meet;
ing of the National League of Base Ball
Clubs was held at the Fifth-Avenue Hotel
to-day. The clubs represented were those
of Boston, Pittsburg. Cincinnati. Chicago,
Washington, philadelphia, Baltimore.
Louisville, Cleveland, and Brooklyn. A
new national board of arbitration was ap-
pointed, consisting of Messrs. Young,
Soden, and Vonderhorste. The evening
meeting. at which the playing rules were
to be revised, was an open one.
John l.. Brush read the findings, OF the
Committee on Playing Rules. which were
as follows:
Rule 5. The pitchers boundary shall be
marked by white-rubber plate IL inches
long by inches wide, so fixed in the
ground as To be even with the surface, at
the distance Of 60 feet inches from the
southern corner of the home-plate, 30 that
O line drawn from the centre OF the home
base TO the centre of the second base Will
give inches upon either side.
Mr.. Brush said this would remove the
very Objectionable feature Of wrangling
between the contesting teams and the um.
pire about pitcher being out of his box.
The box is removed entirely and the
pitcher placed back five feet from his
present position, and he Is confined to q
single place from which TO pitch the BALL.
MIR. Brush also said that the committee,
IN looking into the matter. could see no
reason why the pitcher should have four
feet in which to walk around and the
privilege of delivering from either corner
of the box. In addition to the last rule
was No. n. defining the pitchers position.
as follows: The pitcher shall take his pO-
sition facing the batsmap with both feet
square on the ground, one foot in front OF
and in contact with the pitchers plate
defined in Rules. He shall not raise either
foot except IN the act of delivering the
ball, nor make more than one step in such
delivery. He shall hold the ball before
delivery fairly in front of his body and in
sight of the umpire. When tho pitcher
feigns to thrown the ball to O base he must
resume the above position and pause
momentarily before delivering the ball to
the bat.n
Rule 13 abolishes the fat bat. Rule 80,
defining the balk, Is a model OF concise
ness, but 1t leaves rather wide helts open
for Interpretation by the umpire. 1t says :
"A balk shall be any motion made by the
pitcher to deliver the ball 10 the bat
without delivering it,"
Rule 65. A time at bat is the term at
bat of the batsman. II begins when he
takes his position and continues until he
is put out or becomes base runner. ex-
cept when be is hit with pitched ball or
in any case of an illegal delivery by the
pitcher, or in case OF o sacrifice hit pur-
posely made to advance base runner,
which does not result in base HIT"
Mr. Brush said the above were the prln-
cipal changes m the rules.

for discussion. A number Of conservative
senators favored postponing action IN this
matter until December, but there was not
lacking such an expression of sentiment as
indicated o purpose TO make a complete
change as speedily as possible. This was
also left to the committee appointed by
Mr.. Gorman.
After the close of the caucus the Demo-
cratic steering committee" consisting of
Messrs. German. Brice, Cockrell, Ransom.
and Harris remained in conference for
more than three hours in MIR. Ransom's
committee-room. At the conclusion of
the conference, at $3.50, Mr.. Gormsn an
noupced the following reorganization

Cockrell, Harris. Brice. White OF Lou

Says "Go Slow" as to Appointments.
WASHINGTON, ID. g., March THE first
meeting of Mr.. Cleveland's Cabinet was
held this afternoon at the unusual hour OF
o'clock, and 1t lasted something more
than two hours. All the members were
present.
just prior to the assembling of the new
officials in the Cabnet-room Secretary
Carlisle had talk with the President con-
cerning the bond question, and he was the
first member of tie Cabinet TO arrive at
the White House. Postmaster-General
Bissell came early. with Secretaries Her

Others followed soon afteIward, with the
exception of Secretary Morton, who did
not arrive until nearly O'clock.
There was no formality or ceremony OBJ
served in opening the meeting.
WHERE THE HEAD IS.
Mr.. Cleveland sitting at the head OF the
table, started business III simple. direct
manner The session was devoted TO dis
cusslon of matters Of current public inn
portance, including Hawaiian annexation
and the financial situation, which were
touched upon. The greater part OF the
time was taken up, however, with con-
sideration of tho question OF appoint
ments. particularly those OF assistants to
the various Cabinet officers. The neces-
sity for filling these positions without de-
Law was taken as a self-evident fact, but
Mr.. Cleveland impressed upon his official
family the necessity for going slowly IN
making selections.
The Cabinet adjourned at $40 o'clock.
Secretary Carlisle. who was the first to ar
rive, was the first to leave. Messrs: La
