STORIES OF THE DAY.
Random Observation During = Brief So.
journ In the Windy City.
Every residence has a nice little 4 by 6
plot Of grass in the front yard with hol-
lyhocks and a lilac bush, and on fine
afternoons the women put on their sun
bonnets and go out with sprinkling pots
to water the garden.
There are restaurants on every blook
two or three-which serve a 'tfull
meal at prices ranging to a maximum
Of 40 cents. They serve dinner at noon
and supper at 6 O'Clock. Supper consists
Of stewed beefsteak and nice, sweet lit
tie white grapes stewed with sugar.
The gripmen and conductors on the
cable roads know all the passengers,
and help strangers along by introducing
them to the regulars. Whenever there
is a breakdown or a stop for any rea-
son they come around and ''jolly up
the fares," just to make everything
pleasant, 80 that time won't hang heav-
lily. r.:
The business men who live outside Of
''down town" drive in every morning
with their own teams, which they hitch
to the lampposts in front of their off,
cea. Sometimes they unhitoh the horses
and tie them to the rear wheels Of the
wagon, SO that they can eat the hay out
Of the wagon box while they are wait
ing for the evening drive home.
The very swagger people give dances
in the pavilion Of the old Iowa building
in jackson park. They put a fence Of
benches around so that the populace may
see, but are yet kept out. It's q great
source Of amusement to the simple viii
layers to gather in throngs outside the
benches and behold and comment upon
the grace and beauty Of the aristocracy.
After supper the men sit on the empty
beer kegs out in front of the saloons and
smoke and chew tobacco and tell old
stories. Sometimes they sit on the emp
ty boxes in front Of the dry goods stores
and white. The evenings are fine in
Chicago, and the drug stores on the cor
ners put chairs out OF the sidewalk for
the regular ~loafers, who sit and gossip
about the Holmes case.
As one approaches Chicago in the
early morning the Wagner car porter
says, "At the next bond, when we come
from behind the trees, sir, you car sec
Chicago" You step out on the platform
and the porter says, "There it is. SIR"
and points to . cloud Of smoke, just .
blot on the face Of nature when the sky
10 blue and clear and the day is bright
and the grass and fields are green.
Nearly all the women ride bicycles.
They wear brown boomers and gray
coats. They buy the boomers in a State
street store for 81. 81 q pair. The men
who ride wear red stockings and red
caps. They let their front hair grow
long and curl it with irons 10 that the
red oaps-worn on the back Of the head
give them . fine jaunty air. This ID
true in spite Of the news from London
that basgy rousers have been decreed
for all bicycle riders BY the Chicago
aldermen.

Campbell, Calvin and TuthiIl rave drop
ped from the list, and others are officiating
whose sole duty in life it seems is to call
down the anathemas of roOters wherever
they are assigned to umpire.
Mr.. Young has long since learned that
umpires do not grow on bushes nor is the
art Of umpiring a drug in the sporting
market. 1t looks as easy as rolling of a
log. and many are the men who learned
differently when they tried it. Emslie and
Keefe of all the present League staff have
given satisfaction this year to- the teams
and spectators generally, but even they
have not escaped scot free.
1t is a notable fact that the majority of
this years umpires in the League have
been pitchers at some time in their profess
sional life. Emslie, Keefe, Calvin and
O'Day are the prominent examples of the
theory that a pitcher should make a good
umpire. Snyder was a catcher. So was
Honest" John Kelley. Ferguson was an
infielder, M 1 believe Lynch never played
a professional game in his life. One Of
the best finds" Mr.. Young ever made
was Stage, the professional sprinter OF
Cleveland, who served part Of last season.
His work was excellent, and general regret
followed his resignation on account of ill
ness.
The National league magnates believed
after their legislation last spring that they
had solved the umpire question and had
hit upon rules which would suppress ex-
oessive kicking on the ballfleld. They now
find that the question is as far from being
solved as ever. The system of fines which
was adopted at tho spring meeting will
not aaswet. Umpires recognize them as
excessive and refuse, except in rare cases,
to infict them. Players soon realized this
weakness in the code and have taken ad.
vantage of it. In my opinion the only way
to prevent useless w~rangling on the ball.
Geld is to prohibit all questioning Of um-
pires' decisions absolutely. But it would
even then be uncertain whether the kickers
could be suppressed.
There are ball players who kick quite as
naturally as a summer girl 1irts. TIL MAJ
who will suggest a plan to Suppress that
class of players will merit the reverence OF
d million baseball patrons.

MANAGERS AS PLAYERS
Both Sides of a Regular Annual
Discussion.
o. p. CAYLOR'S BASEBALL GOSSIP.
Captain Oliver Tebeaa tho Bette NOire OF
the U1npires-UnCle AnsOn On . Still
Hunt For New Pitchers-HOw Can the
"Kicking" of Players Pc Prevented:

Every year there arises a discussion over
the merits or dement's OF playing managers
of ball teams. The question of course has
Its two sides, and each side has its warm
advocates. Therefore ii Is by no means
settled in the baseball public'S mind that
a club is better off to have its manager
among its players than to have him as a
nonparticipant in the game. St. Louis.
Chicago, Cleveland, Cincinnati, Pittsburg
and New York have mianager who are &C
tive players. The other National league
clubs employ managers whO never put on
a uniform ulleSS in one or two instances,
as Irwin Of Philadelphia, McCloskey OF
Louisville and Foutz Of Brooklyn, when
the uniform is donned to permit the man
ager to coach.
Last year Arson began the season as
manager by sitting on the bench in citizen
dress. 1t didn't work well in his case, and
not till he took UP his knickerbochers and
went back upon the nine did he succeed in
impressing his players with his strong per-
sonality. | presume, after all, it is not SO
much IA question of playing or not playing
as it is Of tho mans adaptation. Men like
Arson, Doyle, Tebeau and Ewing will do
better by taking part in each game and
participating in the work of the team, be
it good, bad or indifferent. But the Han
Ions, Seele5 and Schmelzes are not built
for effective service in uniform.
Next to Arson the most successful man
ager among those who play on their mines
is Captain Oliver Tebeau of Cleveland,
more familiarly known as Patsy. Exactly
where his success lies is hard to decide. He
Is, however, what is called a fighter. When
it comes to that quality, Arson must rank
below him. The nearest rival he has in
his peculiar methods Ia Manager Doyle of
New York, who, I believe, at one time,
was Tebeau's pupil. Patsy can heap more
misery upon an umpire's life in one after
noon perhaps thar any man who ever
managed a ball team He is the umpire's
bette noire. With him kicking is profess
siOnal life, and when hs does kick at a de-
0ision it is no half hearted affair, but is
full Of his whole soul. On such occasions
Mr.. Tebeau's Language is not always pure,
simple and sweet. Indeed he has the rep.
utation of being able to express himself on
such occasion with more force than eie-
ganoe.
This season he has been particularly un-
fortunate. Accident after accident has
kept him of his nine. Perhaps I should
express 1t as the topper did when he was
brought before the judge for the sixth
time. His honor scowisd and Numbered:

NEW YORK. March 16.-Although
Senior Murauga, the Spanish minister
at Washington, says that the story Of a
Spanish manof-war having fired on the

1--WE kept on our course, however,
which was little further off land than
usual, being fully three leagues from
the shore.
II was standing aft when we signaled
and was very much surprised when the
warship open fired on us. The first
three shots were evidently blanks, as I
saw no shells touch the water"
"Now, mind you, l say. we did not
slow up; not bit, but we kept right on
our way. After firing the three blank
shots, the Spanish boat was in our
wake, about three miles off and she
hauled her head to the eastward, so as
to get her guns TO bear on us. Then
she fired three shots at intervals of a
quarter of an hour, two of the sheels
dropping some 400 yards on our star
board quarter and the third one q simi.
lar distance on our port quarter.
1--WE kept going, as we did not like
the missiles, and we soon showed the
Spanish skipper a clean pair of heels.
"In less than an hour after the fusil-
| ade we lost sight of the Spaniard, and
she seemed to be sulking at not being
able to bring us to standstill. There
is no truth in the statement published
in some newspapers that on our future
voyages we are going TO be armed, as
there is no necessity for our doing 80,
for we can run away from any Spanish
warship afoat."
Second Officer +. w. B. Russell, who
was officer Of the deck at the time of
the incident, told practically the same
story as Captain CroSsman, already
published in these dispatches.
Third Officer Mowbray substantiated
the story OF the other officers.
