South Carolina Society.

The first monthly meeting of the South
Carolina Society. organized recently, will
be held tomorrow night in the post-gradu-
ate hall of the Georgetown Law School.
The names of many new applicants for
membership will be submitted by the ex-
ecutive committee, which passes upon ap-
plications before they are presented to the
society. An address will be delivered by
the Rev. Charles A Stakely, D. D., and
Prof. c. Meriwether will talk on .'The
Colonial History Of South Carolina"
1t Is probable that there will be a dis
cussion over the question of turning the
society into club, but it is not likely that
this feature will meet with the approba-
ton Of majority of the members at this
time The society was organized purely for
the purpose Of bringing South Carolinians
into closer social relations and as this will
be accomplished by the regular monthly
meetings 1t is not thought that there will
be any change to club.

Anti-Balloon sleeve League

To til" Editor Of The Evening Star:
1t is reported that the young men of
Hyattsville have organized an "Anti-Eal-
loon-Sleeve League 1t seems that the
youth of that wide awake town have been
made to keep their distance as far as the
Hyattsville maidens are concerned. and
their patience is well-nigh exhausted.
The constitution of the new league pro-
hibits, under q penalty of a box of Henry
Clay perfectos, any member of the new
league from calling on young lady who
persists in wearing sleeves over eighteen
inches in size. The young matrons are
said to be in league with the men, as they
claim that chaperonage has become q lost
art under the big-sleeve regime.

A Regulars Views,

To the Editor of Tie Evening Star:
The Stars interview yesterday with Mr..
Wagner. intended on his part to put himself
right with the base ball public has put into
an omclai statement all the grievance that
mas been claimed on the part of the bleach
er patrons. MIR. Wagner knows as well as
We who use the bleachers that the miner ar
western end was the only desirable place.
and ne also knows that this is the reason
why they are now to be cut off, in the hone
mat MS 2'-cent patrons will develop into 80
cent ones Let him know that this is our
limit and that If we had wanted to get rid
or our money any faster that there were
but precious few days last year when we
could not have gratified that desire. How
many days last season did the 5D-cent
bleachers next to the grand stand on the
right field side, with seating capacity of
perhaps 50, have dozen in them?

MIR. ADDIsON's FRIENDS ANXIOUS.

A Merchant In Financial Difficulties
Missing From the City.
Mr.. James G.. Addison, a paper dealer on
Louisiana avenue, who made an assign
ment several days ago. has been missing
from the city for two or three days, and
his friends seem anxious about him.
Mr.. Smith, who is now III charge of Mr.
Addsons business, today told Star re-
porter that. he had not the slightest knowl-
edge of where Mr.. Addison Is, and that he
had today sent to Baltimore, where the
missing man has relatives. to ascertain If
they have seen anything of him. Mr.. Smith
added that his own impression was that
MIR. Addison had left him for few days in
order to secure little rest and to re-
cuperate, as he was greatly worried over
the turn his business affairs have taken
1t was Mr.. Smiths opinion that Mr. Addi-
son will return to Washington and attend
meeting Of his creditors called for Mon
day next.
Mr.. Addison Is widower and so far as
Is known has no relatives in this city. He
had room at No. sos K street northwest
and 1t was there learned that he had rot
been at his room since Tuesday evening
He left no word in reference to his intended
movements

and although he only made 66. the inning
was more replete with brilliant plays than
the preceding one.
In the tenth inning Ives scored 70 points.
and Schaefer failed again to score. The
champion struck a fast gait in the eleventh
inning and very quickly ran up 119. In the
eighteenth Ives again got his nerve and ran
out the game with an unfinished break of

cheering at the end OF the last play. The

THOSE QUARTER SEATS.
A Grand stand Patron Objects to the
Change.

A Grand stand Patron Objects to the
Change.
To the Editor OF The. Evening Star:
Permit me, through the medium of your
columns. one who for many years has
regularly patronized the representative ball
team of our city, and never to a greater ex-
tent than during the period of which Mr..
Wagner has had control, to make a few
observations upon that gentleman's in
genious explanation appearing in The Star
of yesterday as to the cause of the increase
in the number of fifty-cent Seats to the
sacrifice of the position of the bleachers.
He says that. as. the owners of the visiting
teams are entitled to half the receipts, and
it being their wish that more room be pro-
vided for fifty-cent patrons. the arrange
ment he has made was in accordance with
their demands. Now. had the gentleman
realized how foolish his statement sounded
he would surely have remained quiet, for
any observer attendant upon the games
for the past few years can readily recall the
fact that not once during the whole season
POSSIBLY excepting the opening game) has
the seating capacity of the fifty-cent seats
been to the slightest extent tested.
On the contrary, at at least 10 per cent
of the games rkose seats were not more
than two-thirds filed, for have frequently
noticed that in THAT portion immedia tely to
the east of the grand stand not more than a
half dozen seats would be occupied. Now
comes the query Why. under such c.rcum-
stances, would any visiting team demand
or even requesf:that more fifty-cent seats
be provided when those already there are
far in excess oFthe number who patronage
them, and why would not the owner of Il
visiting team prefer to see weli-iilled
"bleachers' to empty dress circle seats?
An unbiased judgment reduces Mr.. Wag-
ners reason to simply this: By covering the
n1ty-cent seats and removing the quarter
seats further into the outfield he hopes to
be able, in consequence of the exposure 20
the sun togethets with the greater distance
at which the game may be viewed. to force
the patrons of the bleachers 10 place an
other twenty-five cents in his Golfers.
Because of this injustice to the stanchest
portion of the base ball patrons, l will here
after withhold my mite. which has not been
twenty-five cents but treble that amount
So the injustice is not to me personally, or
to any others who patronize the grand stand
sition to such treatment of our fellow root
