The feature Of the game was the pitch

out seventeen of the opposing batters and
allowed them but five safe hits. White Is
a left-hander, and, outside of his great
speed. has complete control of the ball and
is master of the different curves. The
players back of White feided almost per-

runs. -

FNAy JOIN Hah01 with the FRaRPAtfA
Of Labor.
From the Baltimore American.
1t seems that the proposed coalition Of
professional base ball players is destined.
to reach the proportions of formidable
movement. Among some OF the players the
idea seems to be to join issues with the
Federation of Labor, so as to have that
organization back of them In case of any
breach with the magnates- II the players
band together they. will appoint an arbi-
tration committee, which will ask the
league to appoint a similar committee. TIE
idea seems to be that grievances are first
to be Investigated by the committee of the
players. Should this committee find just
cause for complaint It is to meet the SIM
liar committee of. the magnates and ask
for an adjustment of the difficulties.
Players all over the country are of the
opinion that they suffer some abuses which
they should remedy: The local players say
they have no complaint whatever against
their management, but if such an organiza-
ton is started they will very likely join
forces with it, believing that it's principles
are correct.

Ariz. secured the assistance OF two men who had
practical experience in astronomical observat tories.
and instituted a series Of observations OF Mars
reaching through the greater part Of 1894 and into
the following year. Some of Mr.. Lowells critics
found fault with the confident tone OF his book on
Mars which came year two ago. and felt
that he had not adequately recognized the labors
OF SchiaparellI and some other astronomers; but
his tale was charmnglv told his enterprise was
universally recognized. and the accuracy Of his
observations scarcely challenged.
For the next opposition Of Mars. IN 1895. Mr..
Lowell had a twenty-four-.nch glass made by the

Flagstaff and late in the autumn was removed TO
Mexico The site south Of the Rio Grande proved
q disappointment. however. and the instrument
was then brought back TO arizona. This new tee-
scope has been used 10 some extent on Mars. but
largely on Venus and Mercury. with view TO
studying their markings Confirmation has thus
been given to theories advanced by schiaparelh
In regard the rotation periods OF the two planets
last mentioned. But veteran astronomers have
thus far shown o little hesitation about accepting
some of Mr. Lowell's announcements about the
markings on Venus and further testimony from
tndependent sources is needed TO satisfy the scen-
tihc world on this point. Extensive observations
and u,t a surements OF double stars also made
with the twenty -four-inch glass at Flagstaff II
Is too soon perhaps. fairly to estimate the value
