Of this republic We have learned to

1t is rs representatives and maln-
tainers Of this essential American
principle that We appeal for national
action in this matter Ola foreign prose

I'VE sincerely trust that SOM

speedily. which shall bring the whole
force Of the national sentiment to bear
upon the solution Of this subject; to
cause the instant suppression OF the

that it should bring every influence to

Gus sums, departed this life on the 2lst
day of November, 1894 leaving personal
estate and also certain real estate inBrandy

inteState and left Il widow and certain
heirs t-laW.
1t further states that administration up
on the personal estate of the SAID deceased
was granted by the Orphans Court of
Prince Georges county to Julius +. Pylcs
who has administered upon the same that
the said personal estate has been found to
be totally insufficient for the payment of
the debts of the said deceased; and prays
for decree for the sale of all, or such
part as may be necessary, of the real estate
of the said Julius H. Pylcs, in order that
the debts due by him may be liquidated in
fail.

New York, April 2S.-Fred. Pfeffer
will in all probability be released b y the New
York Club. After his work in yesterdays
game it was apparent 10 the majority OF
spectators that he could not play his old
game, and that for the best interests OF
the team Gleason should be restored TO
the guardianship of second base.
In todays game with Boston the in
field Will receive another sbake-up. Harry
Davis viii come back to cover first base,
where he viii remain. Gleason will cover
second base, where he is much more at
home than on third. and ConDaughton will
play shortstop. The latter viii be sup
planted by Fuller, however, as soon as
shorty gets over a lame arm.
The ouifield will remain as it is, and the
pitching will be done by Clarke, Meekin
and one other in regular turn. Bowen will

Boston's star Pitcher to Leave the
Diamond AT the End OF the Season.
Boston, April est may be that Pitcher
Charley Nichols is getting in his bluff early,
but certainly he is giving the Boston di-
rectors fair warning. Nichols has been for
some years dissatisfied with the pay lie has
been getting. He knows lie is worth more
money than the arbitrary limit set on the
work of the ball players for his services,
and now lie proposes TO play the limit him
self.
In other words, he announces that at the
close OF the season he will quit baseball and
go into business. 1t is no new move. He has
contemplated it for some time. Boston
without Nichols, would be all a sea.
Two seasons ago Nichols was promised
some $500 if he pitched extra games. He
pitched all required OF him, but the next sea-
son the directors shut down on the scheme.
This made Nichols feel sore.
Manager Selee has written home advising
President SOden to secure Pitcher Tannehill
of the Richmond Club. Capt. Duffy thinks
this player is second Breitenstein, aud
would like him.

He will play ball with this club or not at

HORTON SPARRING BILL
Will Prove a Great Boon to the
Sport in'New York.
Legitimate e Boxing Exhibitions WiilBe
Greatly Benefited by the Passageof
the Measure as 1t Now Stands.

New York, April 2S.-Lovers of boxing
are please A over the fact that Governor Nor
ton has signed the Horton anti-sparring bill,
which Will do away with glove contests IN
any place but regularly organized athletic
clubs.
There is no doubt in the minds OF lovers
OF the manly art that the bill, as it stands,
will benefit legitimate boxing exhibitions TO
q great extent. Heretofore ny-by-night
boxing organization would advertise cer-
tain bouts. and after the sports had paid
the price OF admission, they would. uine
times out OF ten. announce that. owing to
SO and so failing 20 show up, the club would
have to put on substitute bout.
The text OF the bill is; Section ass OF the
penal code is hereby amended to read as
follows: Prize fighting aud sparring ex-
hibitions, aiding therein, etc.-A person
who, within this State, engages in, insti-
gates, aids. encourages or does any act to
further a contention, or fight, without
weapons, between two or more persOns or
a fight commonly called a ring or prize
fight, either within or without the state,
or who engages in public or private spar
ring exhibition, with or without gloves,
within the state, at which au admission
fee is charged or received, either directly
or indirectly, or vino sends or publishes a
challenge or accepts of a challenge for such
contention, exhibition or fight. or carries
or delivers such challenge or acceptance,
or trains or assists any person in training
or preparing for such a contention, ex-
hibition or fight, is guilty Of a misde-
meanor; provided, however. that sparrng
exhibitions with gloves Of not less than five
ounces each in weight may be held by a do
mestic Incorporated athletic association in
building leased by il for athletic purposes
only for at least year, or in a building
owned and occupied by such association.
This act shall take effect September l.,
1896.
