Minor League Men Meet at Washington.

Washington, March 17-Representatives
of the minor leagues of baseball clubs
met here today to determine what action
should be taken concerning matters they
think unjust to them, as required OF
them by the National League under the
National Agreement. The meeting occu-
pied several hours and was harm ,niOus.
Ban johnson, of the Western league and
J. G. Morse OF the New England league,
were elected president and secretary. re-
spectively, in behalf of all minor leagues,
to act for them in comforting with the
National league. A committee was ap-
pointed to draw up resolutions on dis
puted points such as classification of
cities according to population, selling OF
players to the National league, etc. The
committee appointed was from the
Western leagues, Western association,
New England league and Southern
league. The committee began framing
these resolutions this afternoon, but they
will not be given out for publication un-
til presented to the National league.
One of those who attended today g
meeting said that the concessions asked
for would be reasonable and there would
be no attempt to destroy the national
agreement. "We will appeal to them as
men, as we'll as baseball magnates" he
said "It is not our purpose to form a
monopoly. What we want is protection
for the good of the national game"

THE NEW AETHAM FUEL.
Tested by the Fire Department on Kenne-
bee Street Yesterday.

Chief Eldridg, the board of engineers
and the committee on fire department.
witnessed that test of the new Aetham
fuel on Kennebeo street at the foot of
Chestnut street yesterday. The test was
in charge of Gen. Manager D. B. Went
Turbine and Fuel company, and other
officers Of the company.
The history of the new manufactured
fuel Is as follows: Soma years ago Mr.
Wentworth was in Mexico and was great
ly impressed with the asphaltam product.
SO plentiful in that country, and its
possib as an agent of combustion,
and brought home numerous samples to
experiment with. He gave some to Mr..
George Aetham of Fall River, and by a
combination of psat and other products
he has succeeded in manufacturing a fuel
which is claimed by the company is the
best thing in the line Of combustion yet
produced.
1t is col tainly very pretty fuel, and
easily and clearly handled. The strong
points claimed for 1t are the long dura-
ton of an even work by an engine using
1T, the absence Of live sparks, the absence
of greasy smokes which befoul the boiler
1ues and the entire freedom from
clinkers. A great deal is also claimed for
the new fuel for use in open CRATES; it
giving a pretty fame and emitting very
few sparks.
The spare engine of the department
was used and the test was very satisfac-
tory to the officers.

Bridgton.
Brdgton, March 17.-Bridgton schools
will begin Monday, March %. There will
be but few changes in teachers. DR.. J.
L. Bennett, who was the efficient and
popular supervisor in 1898 and 1894, is
again chosen as superintendent for 1895.
Miss Jennie Simpson, who has been the
principal of the town school at North
Bridoton, tor the last year, will attend
the Normal school at Pennington this
spring.
Business still continues brisk in the
mills of this village. Night crews are en-
ployed at the Pondichery and Forest
mills, and at the Bridgton Lumber COM
pany's mill, where some twenty cords OF
birch is sawed into spool strips every
twenty four hours The ponds which
were rendered impossible for teams BY
the rise OF water, are again frozen up by
the cool weather, and this and abundance
of snow Is great advantage to the team
sters of this and neighboring towns, who
have still large quantities of wood and
bark to be drawn to market.

AN oRcHEsTRIoN.
Elaborate Musical Mechanism for the
Cape Electric's misunderstanding About
tho Proposed Extension.

One of the most no table attractions at
the new summer resort at Simonton' 8
Cove will be found in the Casino of the
Cape Elizabeth Electric Railway in the
shape of an orchestrion or mechanical
band. This is very expensive and in
tricate mechanism that produces by ma
chinery the music of full band of 18
pieces. The actual instruments are
actually played by machinery.
This is a comparatively new device.
The first orchestrion was seen and heard
in this country at the Worlds Fair. 1t
was quite crude affair compared with
the present perfected machinery. which
with more than the average human
perfection.
There are only very few of them in
the country scattered about in different
places.
1t is as yet unsettled just what action
the town Of Cape Elizabeth will take to-
wards the proposed extension of the cleo
trio railroad to Delano Park. Of courseIthe
company has a general charter from the
legislature which gives them right of
way through the town, but the location
of the track depends upon the action of
the town.
The extension may be made from the
point on the ashore road" where the
present track turns down to Simonton S
Cove, straight out along the 'shore
road" through Willard, or it may be
made from that point, out through Angel
street to tine Cape Cottage road, or it
may be made from the curve where the
Willard hose carriage house is located,
straight out to the Cape Cottage road.
It is not yet decided which of these
three routes will be taken.

THE CAT SHOW.
Extensive Arrangements Being Made for
This Novel Entertainment

Cats will be.a topic of considerable dis
oussion in good many families during
the next few. weeks AS a general thing
pussy has been more or less neglected.
We see her cuddled up in front of the
fire occasionally and we hear her purr-
ing while we are at the dining table but
with the exception of little rub on
the head now and then she isg1eft to the
tender mercies of the children of the
family who pet and fondle her to their
hearts content. From now on to the
close of the cat show that is to be held in
Congress hall, Tuesday, Wednesday,
Thursday and Friday, March 81, April l,
and we shall see more of pussy and
hear more of her good points extolled
than we had any idea she had.
About every family that has a cat that
1t thinks anything of really believes that
1t is the best one in the land. IT you
have a cat at home that you are fond of,
enter it in the show and give some one
else a chance to see what splendid ami
NAL you have. Until we have show of
this kind no one can form any idea OF the
general liking the human family has for
the feline race. 1t is q fact that at cat
shows the animals very soon become &C
customed to their surroundings and gaze
about at the crowds as unconoerned as
possible. You need have no fear that
yonr pet cat will pine away during its
short confinement. 1t will not have the
least bit of effect on her and she will be
Just an contented when she gets home.
Mr.. Chandler can be seen every afternoon
from 2 to at Congress hall and will be
pleased to give any information desired.
