i REMNANT WINNERS.
Makeup Of BaItimores and Arrangement iei
Temple Cup Series.

New YORK, Oct. 1.-The league
championship season came to a
close, yesterday. The success of the
Baltimores has been complete and pine
nomenal. When the season opened no
one thought they would carry OIL the prize
Even when they started off at rapid p1ce
nearly every ionc said they would soon
drop But they kept right on, saying
nothing, taking game after game, TIL the
ctanks began to open their eyes.
The pennant winners have played good
ball all the season, have expended lot of
money to strengthen the pitchers position
and have always been able to cope with
the other clubs Never during the season
was the club weak in the box. And that's
more than can be said of other clubs.
+ The club has received hearty support
from the Baltimore papers, the American,
Herald, Sun and News. They have proved
potent factors in the race and have helped
in large measure in winning the pennant
for their city.
Players Get Gate Receipts.
The controversy over the Temple cup
series ended last night. Captain Hanlon
of Baltimore met Captain Ward OF the
New York club at Chicago, and it was de-
cided to play series of six or seven ball
games in New York and Baltimore, the
series to end when either club has won
four games. The gate receipts will be
equally divided. The money taken in will
be given to the PLAYERS.

Mr.. Otis Skinner, who has won an en-
viable position as a capable actor, will
make his first appearance as star this
season. He has had long and valuable
experience on the stage as the leading sup
port of Edwin Booth, Lawrence Barrett,
Helena Modjeska, Janauschek and other
great actors and actresses, and his success
has been marked for young man of 81
years. By tomperament intelligence, skill
and high artistic purpose he is fitted for q
place among the stars of tho day.
His starring tour will be made especial
ly noteworthy by the presentation of two
new plays, one q comedy drama in four
acts by Clyde Fitch, and the other an
adaptation of Victor Hugo's great drama,
lie Roi s. Amusc," by G. NJ. Skinner OF
the Brooklyn Eagle.
Fitch's new play is called His Grace
De Grammont. He has selected his char
acters from Antony Hamilton Memoirs
of Count Grammont." Other than this
the plot of the play is entirely original.
The play deals with court life during the
reign of Charles II of England and shows
something of the artificiality of manners,
etiquette and profligacy of the fashionables
of that period. About these he has con-
structcd story of strong romantic inter
est He has certainly selected striking
personality for his central figure in the
Chcvalicr &c Grammont, who was q ia
voritc at the court of France in the reign
of Louis XIV. He was exilcd on account
of his love affair with Mime. Houndan-
court, tho kings favorite, and took up
his residence in tho court of tho English
mAharch The play begins at about this
period. The characters arc all historical
and include, besides De Grammont and
Charles ii. Lord Arlington, Lord Jcrmin,
the notorious Lady Castlemaine, Mrs.
Middleton, Mrs. Warmester, Mr.. James
Hamilton and Miss Hamilton. The last
two are the brother and sister of the au-
thor Of the counts memoirs. Miss Ham
ilton is the heroine. Fitch has idealized
the character of De Grammont in the play
and has given to his personality something
of the romance and heroism of D'Artag-
nan. The play will have its first prcsenta-
ton in Chicago in September 1t furnishes
opportunities for much richness In the
matter of costumes and appointments.
Mr.. Fitch is at present in England devot-
ing his time to an accurate study of tho
details Of historical interest. z. =, - ~
Nina Boucicault, the daughter OF the
late Dion Boucicauit, has had n long strug-

vernacular, she has at last got there. F"
For years she has been playing very small
parts in the English provinces without
attracting any particular attention. After
short visit to Australia she returned to
London, where she has just secured very
good engagement. She is particularly
beautiful girl who inhorits a great deal of
the ability of her talented parents, and
the London critics speak in enthusiastic
terms of her personal appearance as we'll
as her stage work. 1t is reported that Miss

1t is the ambition of Richard Mansfleld's
life to havo j thcatcr in New York city.
The rumor has been current for some
time, but it has never been confirmed by
any ono in position to know. l asked
Mr. Mansfield the question point blank n
few days ago, and much to my surprise he
did not even attempt to deny it. On the
contrary, with charming frankness he told
mo that he hopes some day to have an OK
ceptionally strong stock company, in a
Now York theator of its own to present
original American plays of all grades in
volving earnest effort. There would, of
course be intcrlarded some of the old
dramas as well as Shakespeare's plays.
Mr. Mansfield also gave me many of his
ideas with reference to the details of the
scheme, and to say that most of them
were unique as well as commendable
scarcely does credit to the originality CT
their talented concciver. Being easily the
best actor in America, there is no reason
why Mr.. Mansfield should not have his
New York theater and his fine company,
which would play annual engagements
In each of the large cities of the country.
AS soon as the idea shall be presented prop
erly to the jilcttante Of the city it may
be expected to assume definite shape, and
if it should cvcS become an accomplished
fact the American drama will have taken
a giant stride forward beyond doubt.

Jacksonville, Fla, May pa travel
er who has only recently returned from
tour of inspection along the East Coast
Line writes that the whole region ira
versed by the new railroad is undergoing
a rapid Industrial development, adding:
"At West Palm Beach, the terminus
Of the Flagler road, the greatest surprise
was in store. When we passed through
the place some six weeks ago we saw
that small frame buildings were being
put up at various points in the near
neighborhood OF the depot, but there is
now gOod-sized town, of as extensive
proportions and doing as much
business as the town of Cocoa
on the Indian river. The Anheu-
ser-Busch Brewing company has put up
an 5000 building, which we were told is
TO be used as a saloon and as a hotel Dr.
Sites, formerly of Harrisburg, Pa, has
built row of very pretty and cOmmodious
houses. Store building are going up on
the principal streets, and at a long dis
tance from the depot we noticed resi-
dences going up in every direction. There
is no doubt that West Palm Beach has a
great future. Mr.. Flagler himself takes
a special interest in the develop
ment of the place. He will
build fine passenger depot:
has agreed to subscribe literally toward
q school building; has reserved a beauti-
full location on the shore of the lake for a
public park; has proposed to pave some
of the streets, and contemplates
furnishing the town with water
works. The latter enterprise will be
comparatively inexpensive. He expected
anyway to run a line of pipes from the
fresh water lakes on the west to the
shore of Lake Worth, and thence across
to the Royal Poinciana. This line of pipes
will pass through the town of West Palm
Beach, and will furnish that place with
an excellent supply of water. When the
lots at West Palm Beach were placed on
the market few months ago the Indian
River Advocate felt compelled to criticise
the prices at which they were quoted as
being much higher than were warranted.
To-day the price of both business and
residence lots have been put down to
what all consider very moderate figures.
The place is showing the effect of this
action, and scores of people are buying
lots and beginning to improve them"
