There was q faction IN the Louisiana leg

the officers and troops were thanked by

The greater the skill displayed by the
players Of game the greater naturally is
the attraction Of the game to the public.
Is it therefore not strange that the base
bali rule makers do not devise means to
compel baseball players to subordinate
their animal appetites to the interests Of
the professions It can be done and should
be done. +
The unsettled dispute has again come
to the front whether player manager is
better for clubs interests than mana
ger who sits on the bench. Anson and
Comiskey concluded early in the year that
their ball playing days were over, and that
there was a soft berth reserved for them on
the bench as citizen manager. But the
i'll success of their respective teams forced
both of these veterans back into uniforms,
and then came better results for their clubs
and comparatively good ball playing for
themselves
It is doubtful whether a good ball play
er can sit on the bench and be good
team manager. Irwin of the Philadelphias
is not making success of it, and Harry
Wright would have been much more serv-
jceable as general could he have kept
his uniform on. Nash is really the team
manager of the Boston, and Ward is in
full control of the New Yorks. So is Foutz
of Brooklyn.
The last named must be given credit for
getting a great deal out of team which
is not considered individually or collect
lively strong. The Brooklyns have really
no stars, yet they are making quite abid
for the pennant.
FOutZ comes as near as any man on the
team to being star. That he has been q
star of the diamond cannot be disputed.
He made his professional reputation as
pitcher for the Bay City team of the
Northwestern league in 1883 and 1884.
| Then Mr.. Won der Abe became covetous
and bought Dawes release for a good
''stiff sum-" When FOutZ was asked tC
name his salary, he put the figure so high
! that the ST. Louis boss exclaimed: 'Meir
Gott, boy, hat alretty bald for you. Now
yust want to hire YOU" But Dave was
firm and got his price. BY materially aid
! ing St. Louis in winning three successive
championships he made ample return fol
the money spent to secure his services
Then Brooklyn paid $4,000 for the re
lease of the St. Louis quartet, Of which
Dave was part.
"Lanky Dave "Scissors, ''Shadow'
and Father Foutz, "as he is called, is ONT
of the men who take good care of thei1

His physique is such that reserve force!
must be nursed.

to own house in Baltimore, mine O.

sessions elsewhere He can open jack

H Bad FIGHT.
n St. Cloud Row In Which
ssKreut'' Houde Takes
Hand.

A fierce fight took place on Sixth
ave. south, just in front of n. 7.
Kraemer's saloon Monday evening
about $50. says the ST. Cloud Times,
in which a man named George Danzl
was badly pounded by Leon Houde
and JOS. Schaefer. The trouble is
said to date back several days.
Houde and Danzl are both worthless
characters. Houde is a tin horn
gambler, who the police ought to
have driven out 0f town long ago,
and Danzl furnishes the music at
the East side house OF i'll flame. A
few nights ago, according to the
story, Houde visited the place, and
getting into a dispute was thrown
out. It is claimed that HOude. was
engaged yesterday afternoon in
picking quarrel with Danzl, who
was drunk. AT kraemer's saloon
they met Schaefer. Aquarrel started
ard Danzl, struck Schaefer. This
commenced the row, The bar
tender drove the men out of the
saloon, but they continued the fight
on the sidewalk. Houde in the
meantime had been pounding Danzl
and helping Schaefer. 1t is claimed
that Danzl, when he was laying on
the side sidewalk. was b1 italy kicked
in the face. His Head was terribly
pounded up, and the sidewalk was
covered with blood. Dan Craig and
Chief McKelvy arrested all three
men. Houde and Danzl were locked
in Jail and Schaefer gave bail. It is
claimed that HOude instigated the
whole row.
/ Houde was the first one 80 be
arraigned. He was taken before
Justice Martin upon warrant
issued on complaintof assault and
battery. Houde plead not guilty
He was represented by Attorney
Bennett and County Attorney Sui
Ivan appeared for the State. The
case was continued until 1880 p. M
to give the officers time to bring in
! the witnesses. There was large
crOwd in the room to hear the case
and even the Board of Equaliza ton
lost it's quorum.
This afternoon Houde was found
guilty and sentenced to pay a fine
| of 1855 or 60 days in jail. He has
not yet paid the fine.
! Schaefer and Danzl were each fined
49, 80 which they paid.

The recent railroad strikes and tieups
gave opportunity for q repetition of the
old assertion that there is friendly feel
ing between the labor organizations Of the
country and the baseball players who make
their living professionally. One western
writer Of prominence went SO far as to de-
clare that this bond of fraternalism was SO
strong that the striking railroaders would
see to it that the National league teams
not only had transportation furnished to
them from city to city, but also were pro-
vided with the luxury of sleeping cars,
even of the boycotted Pullman variety,
when the unboycotted kind could not be
commanded.
do not believe there is the least foun-
dation for this ridiculous theory. Why
should there be any sympathy between
laboring men and ball players? The latter,
as class, are farther removed from the
laboring people than are the majority of
the millionaires. When ball players are
compelled to give up the profession, they,
with few exceptions, do not turn to man
ual labor for continued sustenance. AS a
rule, their lives have become SO used tc
luxury and idleness that labor is to them
what holy water is to the car of hades.
There is nothing of the laborers life
about these ball players, with whom We
are asked to believe the striking labor or

The Herald makes some effort to
discuss county tax rates. The tax
rate ism t the point--althOugh the rate
is high. The trouble is that after
the county has levied the highest
rate for county revenue that the law
allows, that fund Is $4,000 short in
one year. The rate can't be any
higher than five mills, and that will
only raise about $4,000, while the
expenses to be paid from the money
thus raised were over $25. 1000 in 1893
We believe a. change of county adj
ministration would result in de-
creasing the expenses.
