A FRIENDLY TIP.
President Young's Instruction tn Umpires

President YOung's Instruction tn Umpires
Should he Carefully Perused.
The following letter, addressed in a
to the National League and Western As
| sociation umpires, contains some sound
advice. 1t Is not cut OF place right here to
remark that similar letter to the referees
Of the National League of Roller Polo Clubs
would have been very fitting. A close pc
rusal of the instructions is recommended
TO the late referees of polo.
The important requisites, he says, are to
( enforce the rules honestly and as they are
, written, but not arbitrarily. The virtue of
an umpire, he says, consists In perfect fear
lessness In rendering decision believed
to be right, and, having rendered 1t, to let
1t be final and irrevokable. A greater mis-
takes, he adds, cannot be made than to try
to seven up'' because afraid that an incor-
rect decision has been made.
Players should be made to keep lively
game In progress, and wrangling dis
couraged. II both captains agree to COM
mence a game In drizzling rain, 1t
should not be discontinued unless both
captains request 1t, unless the rain is so
severe as to drive away the spectators and
prevent fair playing.
Anything both captains request should
be done, and the responsibility left with
them, except that when two games are
played In one afternoon and the first
game Is a long one, the second should
be started fve minutes thereafter, re-
gardless of the time remaining to COM
plete IL.

According to advices from Detroit, Man

Bean, the former Brockton pitcher, who
was engaged by New York and taken to
Lakewood for spring practice, has been
dismissed for not being up to the standard.
Manager Seele intends working Yeager

Interesting Spectacle in a Brooklyn
 Greenhouse.
 New York. Aug. 1S.-The century plant, so many years in the possession of John Condon, the horticulturist of Brooklyn, which a few weeks since threw out a fiower-shoot, has progress ed steadily ever since, until now the shoot has attained a height of twenty five feet Fifteen feet up the stem the first branch appeared, of which there are thirteen altogether. Clusters of flowers are suspended from the top end of each branch.
 The plant is now in full bloom, and will be on exhibition at MT. Condon's greenhouse. on Fort Hamilton Park way. near Greenwood cemetery, free to the public for one month. Then the plant dies, its leaves filling up with a fluid. which day by day oozes and drips it's life away until nothing Is left but the great stem, the rest melting and shrivelling, leaving, however, innum- erable offspring in the shape of minute century plants germinating from the falling blossoms. A singular fact is that the stem does not melt or shrivel, but becomes solid as if petrified.
