RAsE RALL NOTES.


Wheeling's infield is u "stone wall but
Mansfield knocked the ball through and
over the wall yesterday.
The crowd yesterday numbered about
eco. There should be a larger crowd to-
day. as it is the last game until May 1lth,
and the management is determined 10 so
TO Mansfield with an average OF .G6i.
Every team has its off days both in the
field and at the bat. Wheeling had one
Yesterday. and is not due for another for
about a month. Every reasonable ran
knows this. and every reasonable Fan
knows that Wheeling has team which
will be among the leaders in felding.
Strouthers has signed two new pitchers
who were ordered to report in Wheeling
one of them is mentioned by the Mansfield
papers as an unknown"
Mansfield has three heavy hitters who
will be among the leaders in the Inter
state. Mangan, Suouthers and Katz.
Mansfield is arranging for a swell open
ing on Friday There Will be a street pa
rade and a band concert, and a big crowd
at the ball park. Pitcher Seibcrt, who did
not come to Wheeling on account of a sore
finger. will go on the rubber in the open
ing game. Campbell or Easton will pitch
for Wheeling.
If their physical proportions are to be
taken into consideration. the Mansfield
| team should be called the Giants. Pete
| Somers is not a small man, but he is
probably the lightest man on the team.
They are splendid looking lot Of ball
players. and represent the best material
In the Southern league. The team which
wins the pennant will find Mansfield IL
dangerous factor in the race.
Smith Whaley viii play second perma-
neutly. Kress will either be kept as util-
ity man. or will be farmed out TO one Of
the Ohio and West Virginia league clubs
| Catcher Jack loft. of GAINESVILLE. who sign
| Cd a Wheeling contract. may come TO this
city to take his turn behind the bat with
Messett. loft is a sood hitter. Kress will
not accompany the team on its first trip.
The base ball "fan" who so loudly as
serts that this or that team is the
strongest in the league. is simply indu'g-
| inc in guess work with as much chance
of hitting the mark as if he drew the name
from a hat. The clubs are all stronger
than last season. with one or two possible
exceptions. and if individual records count
for anything the race for first place during
the early part of the season will be among
Toledo. Dayton Mansfield and Wheeling.
But records are not everything. Team
work is a prominent factor. and only the
results of the games Of the first few
weeks will show which clubs are
! strongest in this respect.
! Smith Wha!ey was warmly appiauded
when he first came to bat lie had his
/ eye on the ball, but was li,tle off IN his
fielding. owing probabyto lack of prac-
tice.

ALMOST A DUEL.
Sir Robert Peel and Due de CireIIa Exchange
 Cards But Settle.

Paris. Nov. 1O.-Tt is stated that a duel between Sir Robert Peel and the Due De Cirella has been narrowly ayerted.
 It is understood that the quarrel was the outcome of an argument over the justification of the imprisonment of Capt. Dreyfus, of the French army, who is serving out a sentence of penal im- prisonmenlt for selling important militia ry secrets to a foreign government.
 The duke, who considered himself in- suited by certain letters from Sir Robt. Peel, came especially from Geneva and sent his secretaries, including the fa- nous amateur swordsman, M. Thome- geaux, to call upon Peel. M. Thome- geaux recently had a so-called duel with swords with an Italian amateur, Signor Casella, which arose out of 8 dispute as to the stauched shirt which the Count of Turin wore during his recent duel with Prince Henry of Orleans. {
 The repres sntatives of Sir Robert Peel met the dukes seconds this evening at the Cercle Artistique ct Litteracy, a we'll known club in the Rue Volney, and explained that Sir Robert had since learned that remarks he had attributed to the duke had never been ussd, and that he, therefore presented a full apol- ogy.
