BASE BALL.
All The Local Management Needs is
Little Encouragement.

Some people who are apparently dis
posed TO annoy the manager ent of the
local State League base ball club have
circulated a report that the club has no
franchise This is wholly untrue Mr..
w. j. Brennan holds the franchise and
has paid 500 into the league treasury as
part of the guarantee that the club, or
it's successor, will play out the season.
The balance of the payment will be made
on April 1st. These payments go into the
reserve fund. Any club that fails to live
up to the conditions forfeits the deposit
and the money will be divided pro rata
among the clubs that finish the season.
Mr.. Brennan has forwarded seven con-
tracts for the signatures of excellent
players and expects to have the full club
signed within the next ten days. The
report that the club has passed into the
hands OF Hon. D. d. Phillips and M. J.
Lawlor is also incorrect. These gentle
men have been negotiating for the pur-
chase, but nothing definite has been done
in the matter. 1t is said they contemplate
establishing grounds close to the Lake.

come point between Shenandoah and
Mahanoy City, should a deal for the pur-
chase of the franchise be made. Easton
and Lebanon are also seeking the fran
chise, but Manager Brennan says he will
not allow it to leave town If any reason
able encouragement is given him.
One thing is certain, Mr.. Brennan
will not release the franchise until ne
gets purchase price sufficient at
least to clear the unpaid claims in
CURED last season, which, however, dc
not amount to very much. If this can
not be secured the old management will
play out the season, which begins on
May 1st at Allentown, Pottsville, Ian
caster and Carbondale. Shenandoah plays
its first and second games of the season
at Pottsville on May 3rd and 4th and its
first and second games at home with
Hazleton on May 10th and 11th. The de
lay in completing the enrolment of the
home team is due to some extent to some
of the players residing as far west as
Indiana and the contracts were only for
warded since the meeting of the League
at Allentown last week

THE NEWS GLEANINGS
Chief of Police Thomas TOSh Gets
His First Case, and It's a
Lively One.
TWO OFFICERS CAPTURED.
WHEN PHILLIPS AND ALEX ENTERED
THE HOUSE SOMEBODY LOCKED THE
DOOR AND ALEX WAS BEATEN.
Phillips Escaped by Crawling Through
window and Got Assist
ance-A Bad Crowd in
the Dark.

Chief OF Police Tosh got his first case
in hand last night and had pretty lively
time. He was called into service by Con-
stable Taliesin Phillips, to help get Special
Officer Anthony Alex out of house in
which he was held prisoner and to help
arrest the man specified in the warrant
the officers held.
Phillips and Alex went to arrest a Pole
named John Somanofski, who had
smashed window panes in house in
O'Hara's row, near the LehiRh Valley
depot. When the officers got into the
house somebody locked the door, while
others put out all the lights. Phillips
succeeded in reaching and crawling
through window, but Alex was pounced
upon and terribl beaten.
Having reached the street Phillips ran
up town and, meeting Chief of Police
Tosh, invoked his assistance. The two
went back to the scene of trouble and
after considerable parleying succeeded in
getting the door open and entered the
house In attempting to light lamp
the officers also found considerable en-
barrassment. AS each match was struck
the flame was blown out by some
| body in the crowded room, but
no more violence was attempted.
After securing light the officers searched
for and found the prisoner wanted He
was attired in underclothing and was
without shoes. He refused to put on
additional clothing and was dragged out
of the house. He did not go far when hs
pleaded to be allowed TO return to the
house and dress himself properly. His
request was granted. While he wai
putting on his pantaloons he asked his
wife to get him a revolver, but before thil
request could be complied with th'
officers hustled him off to the Lookup
barefooted, and without hat or coat.

A vacillating Scribe.

Having been effectually met on his
argument that the Secretary of the Bor.
ough Council should resign because he
received his appointment through the
James deal, the vermillion-haired cores
pondent of the Mahanoy City Record now
attempts to draw the HERALD into an
argument as to whether Mr.. James was
its choice in the election of Councilmen.
The readers of the HERALD know the
stand the paper held during the election
and it does not require a stretch of con.
science, or the truth, to say that it favored
no particular candidate.

Stole a Watch.

John Prosser, Jr., yesterday called at
the residence OF Joseph Deyine, in the
First ward. to see Mr.. Devine's son, who
had been injured. After Prosser left a
watch valued at SS5 was missed. Mr.. De,
vine played the part of a detective and
learned that Prosser had offered to sell a
watch for 81 in a club room. He met
Prosser on the street and took him to
Justice Toomey's office. The young man
denied his guilt, but was committed in
default of $500 bail. This morning he
admitted that he stole the watch and
said he sold it to an East Lloyd street
saloonkeeper. The latter denied this and
Prosser was taken down to The Pottsville
