He went on the theory if the cash book
showed about the same receipts and ex-
penditures why was it necessary to draw
a draft every other day. Miss BEEN said
that when she first went into the office
in the morning she looked over the adj
vice slips and Appropriated the amount
necessary TO pay them. She then told
Mr.. Mead the amount and he would
draw a draft. The money received from
the draft would pay the orders and also
show the cash book to be correct. The
due bills We're given TO the banks be-
cause they preferred TO have them. If
thay presented an order at the Office it
was necessary for them 20 pay il in

rency, and by getting a cue bill the bank
would be paid the next day when the

Kickers and kicking.
q Editor of the Dispatch:

To the Editor OF the Dispatcn:
II you will kindly allow me little
space in your valuable paper, l would
like lust for a fellow feeling" 70 add
my little kick 10 those that have been
made in the last few days in regard to
baseball and players.
Now. let me start right here by saying
that there is entirely 10 much outside
interference with our players and we
never will be able 10 Keep a good team
until it is stopped.
II Jake Wells with all his experience
as a ball player and club manager, cam
not place his men TO the best advantage,
knowing. as he does, their good points
and where they play best, hardly think
il reasonable that some OF our good
natlred "cranks" who have had pos
sibly no experience, nor ever played a
game of ball and know nothing of the
rules OF the game or the merits OF the
PLAYERS. are capable of placing the
men 10 any advantage.
saw. let Jake Wells manage his
players, and let us manage our deport-
ment as becomes Richmonders and Vir-
ginians. and be true ball cranks, and
root as is our privilege to do. but let US
remember. also that we should not
single out any man on the club and try
because he makes an error; nor demand
his release simply because he does not
seem to come up 10 our idea Of perfec-
ton. Let the 'cranks" place themselves
In his place. and see how they would
ike some one always ready TO howl at
them and run TO their employer and de-
mand their release on every error they
may make. Oh. yes; l hear them say
This is not a parallel case, that Is my
business by which | get my living"
Well that is just the case; the cranks
go 10 the backgrounds TO have good
time and witness a good game OF ball,
and the player Is there to make them
enjoy themselves. and earn his money,
as is his business with him. He Is not
there TO make errors or TO get his release
on the demand Of any crank" who may
see III TO howl him out OF the game.
Now, let me say in conclusion. let Jake
Wells manage his men, for he certainly
has proved hts efficiency, beyond a doubt.

to do nothing but enact the tariff and

BEAN EATERS WON.
MANAGER sELEE's sLUGGERs
DOWNED THE BLuEBIRDs.
LOCALS PUT UP A GOOD GAME.
Their Fielding Fast and snappy,
and They Batted Very Well, Too,
Considering the PITCHERS They
Were Up Against.

II was a 10 to shot that Boston
would defeat Richmond yesterday. and 1t
was 10 TO / score that the Bean
Eaters did the work by.
The announcement that Mr.. Selee's big
lads would contest with Richmond drew
forth the largest gathering of the year
AZ Broad-Street Park. and the bleache-
ries and grandstand contained over
1900 enthusiastic rooters and cranks, VINO
yelled themselves hoarse over the many
good plays made. and watched with in
terest the work Of both teams, which was
OF high order.
The locals played the best game they
have put up this year, and they played 1t
to a finish. too. Their fielding was of
a snappy order and their batting was,
when it is considered that they were up
against the crack pitchers of the Hub,
exceptionally good.
BOSTONS BATTED THE BALL
The Bostons did not win by errors nor
misplays. They simply batted the ball
ont. and hit followed hit whenever IL
was needed. The Bean-Eaters are all
heavy batsmen, and everybody on the
team whacked the sphere. driving II all
over the lot. Hamilton, the great centre
fielder. did the star hitting. and out OF
five times at the bat. he lined out two
triples and a double, plaGSlg his hits
each time tust where they would do the
most good.
"Reddv'' Foster did the stellar batting
for Richmond scoring 100 per cent for
n Ef
both times he lined out good ones, his
first lick yielding him two bags. He
scored after making his long drive.
thereby making the only run accredited
to Richmond.
Manager Wells put chesbro in the box
to start off with, and then in the sixth
inning substituted Stimmell for him. Both
twirlers did we'll but the cold weather
operated against them, and then, no.
thing short of a Rusie could have
proved effective against the Bostonians
who. apparently, had on their batting
clothes.
THE BEAN-EATING PITCHERS.
Mr.. Selee tried three OF his pitchers
Lewis. Stivetts, and Nichols. Lewis, an
ex-Williams College man, was the first
twirler TO try his hand and he did good
work. developing great speed. Oldham
Stivetts, as big and jolly as ever, went
in 10 twirl next, and in the first inning
he pitched he was soaked for three hits
He laughed gently TO himself, though
and sending the ball over with redoubled
vigor thereafter, permitted no more
hits TO be made. Nichols pitched only
the last two innings. and while he was
not hit often. he was trihe bit wild.
Mazena played in the right and showed
off to good advantage, and Sholta occu-
pied second. doing exceedingly well
there. Elsey was in left, and he guarded
that territory in a fiawiess manner.
THE SCORE IN DETAIL.
There is little to tell of the game itself.
except that some brilliant fielding was
done on both sides. The appended score
will give the details:
