Twenty Seventh Season.
The present year marks the 9th con-
secutive season of the existence of an or
ganized professional baseball association
in this country. In that time the game
has passed through many critical periods,
sometimes even threatening to wreck the
structure; but it has braved the storms,
conducted itself sturdily through evil and
good report, and has finally reached that
plane where 1t Is not tainted by corruption,
where gambling has no influence and
where honesty and integrity are supreme.

C:sa stuart's Plan.
Corpus Christi, Tex, Jan. 18.-It is q
well known fact among certain parties
here that while Dan Stuart was in Cor
pus Christi last May he held several con-
situations with a leading Brownsville
attorney, the result Of which was the
lease Of an island in the Rio Grande
river from the Mexican government.
Several knowing ones have asserted that
the Corbett -Fitzsimmons fight will be
pulled of on the island, which Is about
ton miles from Brownsville.
Gagged From the Spot.
Pawtucket and New Bedford have each
won two games in the opposing rink.
Pawtucket has lost five games by one
goal, Fall River one, New Bedford two,
Providence six and Salem IL.
Friday was the first time since Dec.
tnat double figures were scored against
Pawtucket, and Fall River did the trick on
both dates. No other club has been able
to do this once.
Fall River has lost but two home games
up to date. The last defeat occurred Dec.
2, when the Tigers gave Capt. Cotter and
his Indians q bad throw down on their
own reservation.
Menard Is confined to his home In Pro-
whence with an abcess, and 1t will be q
week or 80 before the lanky rusher will be
in the game again. Hard luck, indeed,
Manager Murray.
The release of Furbush has doubtless
benefited the team, as Bartlett played
fine game at half back, without the rough
and-tumble work OF the burly Dick. Cen
dreau, although on but short time, put
up fine game.
Providence cranks who were ready to bet
all kinds of money after securing Canavan
that the Grays would beat out the Tigers
I'm the series, will be grieved to learn that
the series has already been won by Capt.
whiting and his men.
The Tigers meet the Grays at Infantry
