irstic Meetings Saturday Night.

New York, Oct 24.-An immense
crowd gathered into and overflowel

and their enthusiasm was of the revo-
lutionary sort. The United Democra-
sible for the gathering. c. N. Shee-
han was chairman. There wa sa long
wait. but finally the smiling face of the
candidate appeared. followed closely by
several members of the committee sent
to escort him.
The audience seemed to go suddenly
mad. Men shrieked and roared. Some
grasped their nearest neighbor by the
hand. and they yelled in unison.
| Where there was room enough to stir
about, horny hands came down on SOL
id backs with resounding thwacks.
George tried several times to quiet
his friends. Each time he raised his
hand the tumult started anew. But
order was restored, and the candidate
made his speech.
1t was characteristic talk, inter-
rupted frequently by enthusiastic ex-
pressions of confidence by people in
various parts of the hall. The speech
was practically the same as delivered
in the earlier meetings. Outside Mr..
George and Mr.. Dayton were beseiged
by those who could not get into the
hall, and they made brief talks.
Seth Low addressed a largely at
tended meeting in the Central Opera
house. this city. Saturday night. J.
Augustus johnson presided. After the
applause caused by the appearance OF
the Citizens Union candidate on the
platform had subsidized, Mr.. Low
among other things. said:

and good government. We have hac

Ball Notes.

Comiskey started out for Won der Abe
at $40 per month, and when he left him
received $500 a season. Cincinnati en-
gagged Comiskey at $1,000 per season for
three seasons to leave Won der Abe.
Treasurer Ashley Lloyd of the Cincin-
natl club. is authority for the statement
that Cincinnati offered $4,000 for Fred
Clarke of the Louisvilles and it was re-
fused. Clarke would be easily worth that
amount to the Cincinnati club.
Henry Chadwick says: with rare ex-
ceptons l have found in my 40 years of
experience in reporting base ball. that
the majority of ball tossers do not know
the meaning of the word gratitude in re-
gard to favors shown them by the press"
In the loss of o. P. Cayior, who died in
Winona. MIMI. last week. the New York
club has lost it's most valuable Journal
istic ally. Mr. Caylor's trenchant pen
was always loyal to the club, and his
articles in the New York Herald were
widely read. Mr.. Caylor was the official
scorer of the cluo and often accompanied
1t on its trips.
According to 'Nick" Young's figures
the strongest batting team would be
Mcclure, Washington, catcher; Stiv-
etts. Boston, pitcher; Lajoie, Philadel-
phia. first base; Demontreville, Wash
ington, second base; Collins. Boston,
third base; Davis. New York, short
stop: Clarke, Louisville. left field: KEEL
ley, Baltimore. center field; Keller,
Baltimore, right field.
Napoleon Lajoie, the hard-hitter of
Philadelphia, is justly entitled to the
| credit of leading the league this sea-.
son in total bases. He achieved the
fine total of .567, making more long
drives than anv nIavor in the couptrv
Lajoie is tall. possessed of immense
strength. and wonderful reach. He
| drives the ball with very little effort,
and sends it very sharply. His batting
was wonderful for one in his first year
in the big league. He ranks seventh
with percentage of 1868.

IAuetgert was taken back to Jail. M

upshot of the argument was that 40

Speaking Of the prospects of new

Governor Atkinson was pres.
emit and spoke generally on the
value of the organization of the
Mayors. On the whiskey ques.
ton he said he was opposed to
liquor in every particular, but he
believed it was handled better
under a very high license sys-
tenn than by the speakeasy meth
cd, which generally prevailed.
On this point the Mayor of
Charleston held that the power
to grant license should be wholly
with the town council.
1t was decided that q plain
drunk should be fined sl.Oo and
costs for first otfense and the fine
increased for subsequent otfenses.
And that a drunken policeman
should be arrested and treated as
any plain drunk.

The Mayors.
State Association Organized
at Clarksburg.


The program arranged for the
meeting of the Mayors of West
Virginia was very successfully
carried out at the Clarksburg
court house Monday and Tues.
day of this week. On account
of the trains being late, many of
the mayors did not get in in time
to be present at the opening of
the meeting. The meeting was
calledsto order by U. S. Kendall,
mayor of Fairmont, who stated
the object of the organization,
which will meet hereafter every
year, or perhaps oftener, at
which the affairs of municipal
government will be discussed.
An election was held and
officers were elected to serve one
year. as follows: President. U.
S. Kendall, mayor of Fairmont;
Vice President, r. 81. Thomas,
Parkersburg; Secretary. Chas.
B. Goodwin. Weston; Treasurer,
o. Q. Owens. Clarksburg. A re
cess was taken until 8 p. M, be.
fore commencing the regular
business of the meeting.
Among the Mayors present
were q. S. Kendall, Fairmont;
William L. Dent, Newburg, Eu-
gene McGinnis, Tunnelton; E.
b. McCalsky. Ravenswood; R. H.
Thomas, Parkersburg; Chas. B.
Goodwin, Weston; M. v. Over,
New Martinsville o. Q. Owens,
Clarksburg; j. F. Randolph,
Salem, aud ]. L. Rowand, Shinu-
ston, Mayor Scovill, Of Cairo;
May Simpson, Of Wellsburg,
and others arrived later.
President Kendall's inaug.
ural address was received with
interest and contained many good
thoughts. Mr.. Kendall is a pol
ished scholar, being a graduate
of Yale and also of our own State
University. His election was
certainly the placing of the prop
er man at the head of the Asso-
citation.
Among the important ques-
tions discussed were "Should the
State establish a Workhouse
System, ably discussed byMayor
Butts, of Wheeling, and others.
The idea prevailed that there
should be one workhouse for
several adjoining counties.
An excellent paper on the
"Granting of Licenses" was pre-
scented by Mayor j. A. de Grey
ter, of Charleston.
TUESDAY.
The Association met and was
called to order by the President.
Among the subjects discussed
were Street Cleaning, Paving.
&C. by Mayor R. H. Thomas.
Mayor Butts held that while fast
driving should be prohibited.
there should be some street set
apart in every city where peo-
pie could drive fast if they SO
desired.
On the subject of Speaker
sies' Mayor Scoville, of Cairo,
talked huently and most sensibly,
and his remarks were listened to
