The InteTirencer does not believe IN
Ouarreling with its neighhors over the
question of the excellence or size Of the re
spective papers, and seldom INDUCES III
such pastime.-lnteldSen
This is amusing when we know that
three days out Of the week the sleepy
old prevaricator Of Fourteenth street
makes up in brag what it lacks in
news. This would not be so bad K
our neighbor ever did anything to brag
about. 1t is always safe to judge a
worthless newspaper by the amount OF
brag it INDUCES in, and the Fourteenth
street sheet is the worst in tina, regard
on our exchange list, and its foolish
and untruthfu' puffs of itself were the
beginning of the present trouble it has
got into.
The Register has no desire TO con-
tinue this discussion, since it is like
fighting a windmill to nail our con-
temporary's false assertions, Of which
it has an inexhaustible supply in re-
serve. The Register has proven its
very great superiority over the sleepy
old woman as a newsgatherer; and on
special news in this State the Register
has shown that it leads even the Pitts.

last night on business.
1t is not likely that either Messett
or loft will be able to play behind the
bat for week or ten days. Tots
physician fears that he may have sus-
tanned a fracture of bone in his back.
Messetts leg is badly swollen. Both
are impatient to get back into the
game. 1t is understood that Hollowell
may catch, as Gordon will go out to
Fairmont TO play II a game to-day.
Pullock is one of George Moreland's
finds, and played on the Steubenville
team with Ritchey and the Wagners.
He comes we'll recommended, and VIII
no doubt hold his own in Interstate
company. If Taylor reports, Bullock
may play second, in which event Brad
ley will go to the outfeld.
Wheeling opens series this after
noon with Springfield. Springfield
has improved wonderfully under the
management of Lew Whistler, and is
playing winning ball. Wheeling will
have a tough argument for three days.
The GAINESVILLE team has furnished
several good players TO the Interstate.
Among them are Bradley and Reisling,
Of the Wheeling club, and pitcher Pool
and an outfielder with Springfield.
Reisling has an excellent opinion OF
Bradley, and says he will prove to be
one of the best hitters on the local
team.
The management might do worse
that give complimentary ticket TO the
''rooter" who sat on the left held
bleacherss yesterday afternoon. He
should be admitted free every day his
voice is in good condition.
OBrien is an earnest, hard working
player. and never sulks. Pop has
his eye on the ball now, and is hitting
as hard as any player in the league.
Vetters is expected to play in center
field to-day. and Campbell will prob
ably go in the. box.
Youngstown has secured pitcher
Fisher, for whom Wheeling was dicker-
ing with Toledo. Martin, released by
Springfield, has also been signed by
Youngstown.
Robinson, who was with Fort
WAYNE. but is now with the Wheeling
team, is one of the best batters in the
league. His sobriquet Of Home Run
