The Raseball Tou1n.ment.

The local baseball. team is not well
pleased with the provision Of prizes
for the baseball tournament, made by
the state fair management at a recent
meeting. BY participating in a game
in which cash prizes are offered, the
members Of the tam would there
after be classed as professional" play
Iers. The members Of the team are
not willing to be 50 classed and can
not well afford to, when the renu-
meratiOn is only s75 for first prize.
The team suggests that the state fair
management reconsider its first offer
and give the amount OF the prize in
merchandise or in suitable medals.
1t Is hoped the suggestion will be IA
yorably acted upon by the executive
committee for by 50 doing interest in
the tournament wOnld be greatly in
creased. The local team has always
lacked a suitable pitcher but the va
cancy will now be filled by Chester G.
Murphy, who has just returned from
Stanford. Charles L. McNary, another
Stanford student, is mentioned as
favorable candidate for the position
Of third baseman On the team. Russell
Coleman, better known as Brick"
will soon return from Eugene and
will probably be given a place on the
team. With these changes, Salem

LETTER FROM PRINCE VILLA M
Correspondence of the Aleyandria Gazette]
GAINESVILLE, April 16.
read in amazement two paragraphs
in what | take to be the editorial
column of to.day's Manassas Journal.
The first announces the liberation of
one hundred patridges by MIR. W. n.
Lipecomb and other sportsmen. The
object is to restock our grounds 80 that
field sportsmen and others who have
bought and bred the best type of the
English pointers and settlers may have
the pleasure of seeing our dogs sweep
over the fields and, obeying natures in.
stincts, assume statuesqus positions
and display that birdinding sense i'm
planted in them which quickens the
puisation, relieves tie wearied mind,
gives ress 10 the body by healthful and
changed exercise and presents lovely
scenes from which Tracy, Osthaus and
other great artists and sportsmen have
drawn inspiration.
The next item is that Mr.. Henry
Ayers has lost 43 sheep from the bite of
a rabid dog last February, one dying in
the past fortnight. Another bad e1-
ample of dogs at large. When will peo-
pie realize that no mans dog has any
right on his neighbours premises? With
out taking up the question which in-
ierests the Fairfax or any other peo'
pie as to Mr.. Ayers's sheep
| wish to ask if this cold blooded
prompting ofthe ignorant and vicious
negro on worse, white woman or
man, whether it emanate from an editor
or alligator, has instigated the class
above referred to, to poison and other
wise destroy for me the great
field trial and shooting dogs
bench and field trial winners Lady
Spotswood, Nicodemus OF Ian, Few
Flight OF Virginia, Flake of Flock6nd-
er, Heineken, Spottswood Frank, Little
Rod, Flockfnder three, and the great
est of these and all, Lady Margaret,
besides other we'll bred ones of lesser
note. How does the loss of three dogs
