third inning Of the first game Sheridan
gave a batsman his base on balls, and

and with two well aimed blows, knocked
Sheridan down and out. Hawley was
put out Of the game and Hastings sub
stltuted.
In the second game Hawley was put in
to pitch and Jennings. the third man up
was given first on what Sheridan called
an illegal delivery. This set the crowd
wild and in a few minutes a shower of
ill-smclling eggs fell around the umpire
and he had to stop the game until Capt.
Donovan could come in from the field and
restore order. Both games were well

TALK OF ALASKA.
Gov. Brady Suggests a Commission TO
Visit the Country.

| Gov. Brady Suggests a Commission 20
Visit the Country.
SEATTLE, Wash, Nov. 29.--In an
interview Governor John &. Brady
of Alaska said:
"The business men and officials OF
Alaska are concerned in eTecting
some change of amplification of the
laws as they are at present in force
They will combine to submit to con-
gress a proposition to authorize the
appointment of a committee which will
consider the needs of Alaska on the
ground. My idea is that the commits
sion should consist Of senator,
representative, and three bona fide
residents of Alaska. II we are able
to get a commission something may
be accomplished for the good of Alas
ka. Otherwise time devoted to Alaska
will be frittered away in the consid-
Grafton of individual bills of no BEN
eft to the country as whole.
Many think Alaska should have a
territorial form of government. The
objections to this are manifold, chief
among them are the sparse pOpula-
tion of the country. A territory
means taxation, and the people are
not there to be taxed. 1t would be
of little avail to submit to congress
resolutions for change in the code
now in existence. These things must
be investigated by commission
which can ascertain the needs of the
people by personal examination. We
want an extension of the land laws,
the regulation of the fish industry,
the naturalization of the natives. the
right of appeal and laws for the pres
ervation of game.
'The smuggling evils must be dealt
with by the commission. Last year
1000 gallons of Canadian whisky
were smuggled into Alaska"
Governor Brady thinks that Alaska
will be as great an agricultural and
country some day as min
ing one. His trip to this city is on
private business. He will not go to
to attend the coming ses-
sion of congress as has been reported. |
