THE FORT MARCY RESERVE.
The Board of Trade wires Delegate
CatrOn for InfOrmatiOn-His
opinion Wanted

The disposition of the Fort Marcy
abandoned military reserve-whether it
shall be granted to the American Invalid
Aid society of New England, or converted
into au Indian reservation-wasd discussed
pro and con at a meeting of the citizens
at the board of trade rooms on Saturday
night. Capt. J. L. Bulls, Pueblo Indian
agent, said the Indian bureau had asked
him to report on the suitability of the
buildings and grounds for Indian school
purposes and he had complied with the
request He said Ramona school would
be moved from its present quarters or
abandoned in June and it seemed to be
the desire of the Indian Office to utilize
Fort Marcy. A number Of citizens, Mr..
Stasb. Mr.. Weber, DR.. Crosson and
Others thought it would be far better to
advocate the granting of the reserve to
the invalid aid society, and predicted
great good to Santa Fe resulting from
the i'm proyement of the grounds and the
erection of modern buildings for SAM
tarium accomm odatlons. Mr.. knaebel
considered this all we'll enough in theory,
but he desired to be informed as to the
substantial nature of the aid society s
backing and its ability to properly con
duct national sanitarium here. For his
part, he wanted none of New England'f
pauper poor sent here. After soma furth
er discussion it was agreed to SEMI the
following dispatch to Washington;
| Hon II r Cntron Washington, ID. G..

BROWNS vs.. SANTA FES.
The Home Team Captured Each of the
Two Games by One Majority
Teens Evenly Mntched-Er-
rOrS Offset by ZONE Bril-
liant Plays.

The Albuquerque and Santa Fe base
hall teams met on the diamond at the
college grounds on Saturday afternoon
and again yesterday afternoon. The two
games resulted as follows: First-Browns,
IS; Santa FEES, IA; second-Browne, 10;
Santa FEES, 16, and both, of course, we're
awarded to the home team.
Young, pitcher, and R. Mcdonald,
catcher, composed the battery of the
Browns in the first game, aud Sousea,
pitcher, and Crawford, catcher, officiated
in like capacity for the Santa FEES during
the first five innings and Pardee, pitcher,
and Hale, catcher, served during the next
four innings. In the second game G. and
r. Mcdonald composed the Albuquerque
battery and Pardee pitched and Hale
caught for the Santa Fes. s. B. Shelby
umpired both games, and, although called
upon to make an unusual number OF
close and difficult decisions, he gave gen
eral satisfaction, acting without heslta-
ton and with an evident purpose to OBJ
serve and enforce the laws of the game
with absolute impartiality.
The large number of runs made in the
two games, indicating poor playing on
both sides, is somewhat misleading. 1t
goes without saying that total of fifty
eight runs could not have been made in
the two games if there had not been
some very bad playing on both
sides, but the fact that each team
was whitewashed four times on Sat,
urday and that the Browns were
whitewashed six and the Santa FEES four
times yesterday proves that there was
also some very good work on both sides
The facts are that the poor playing each
day was confined to two or three innings
that each team ia entitled to credit for q
number Of really brilliant plays; that the
batteries were quite evenly matched and
did work that promises we'll for the sea
son; that the members of both teams &C
ted like perfect gentlemen in both games
another feature most pleasing to NOTE
at the beginning Of the season. At thu
end OF the seventh inning yesterday the
score was tie, then followed two innings
and half without run, and the Santt
FEES made one and broke the interesting
tie in the last half of the tenth inning.

UNCLE SANS GREAT SEAL.
It Was Designed by British Subject Over
a Hundred Years Ago.

The great scnl OF the United States is OF
peculiar interest from the fact that it Is
possibly the only ono in the world that
was designed for u government by the sub
ject of an opposing governments We owe
our coat " arms 20 Sir John Prestwich,
baropet OF the west of England, who was
warm friend Of America and IN accom-
plished antiquarian. His admiration for
Washington undoubtedly influenced his
design, as the Washington arms arc rather
similar 70 our seal Originally the selcc-
tion of tho seal was left 70 q committee ap-
pointed by congress and composed Of Ben
jnmin franklin, John Adams and Thomas
Jefferson and they employed "a French
West Indian named Du Sinitiero not only
to furnish designs but 10 sketch such de-
signs as were suggested by themselves. In
one Of his drawings the artist displayed on
a shield the armorial ensigns of the several
nations whence America had been pcopled,
embracing those of England, Scotland,
France, Germany and Holland.
After several other committees had vain
ly tried TO perfect "a seal which should meet
the approval of congress Charles Thomp-
son, its secretary, several years later, re-
coived from John Adams, then in London,
an exceedingly simple and appropriate de-
vice suggested by Sir John Prestwich. 1t
consisted OF an esoutchcon bearing 10 per-
pcndiculaF stripes, white and red, with
fold blue, and Gpangied with 10 stars, and,
TO give it great consequence, he proposed
placing on it the breast OF an American
eagle without supporters, as emblomatical
of self reliance. AT last this met with gen.
eral approval in and out of congress and
was adopted In June, 1852. So 1t Is mani
fest, although the fact is not extensively
known, that we arc indebted for our na-
tional arms TO n titled aristocrat Of the
country with which we were then at war.
It was cut in brass soon after IL had been
decided upon, and IL is found on n COM
mission dated sept l6, 1882, granting full
power and authority 10 Washington 10 ar
range with the British for prisoners Of war.
This seal continued in use for SO years.
The present seal differs from 1t only in de-
tail Of execution. The design Of the reverse
has pyramid, over which there IL an eye
I'm "A triangle. For somo reason this side OF
the seal was not cut thon, nor has IL been
cut since, but has been allowed 20 go un-
notices officially until the present day.
Tho second seal was cut in lS4l, Daniel
Webster then being secretary Of state. This
one was continued In use up 90 1885, when
the seal now in use was cut-New York
