LEAGUE LEADERS.
Individual Champions OF the Last
Baseball Season.

In summing up the results of the late
league baseball season it is found that
the champion batter proves to be
Monkey Burge, the phenomenal right
fielder Of the Santa Cruz team, and
probably one of the most popular play
ers in the league. Burge has played
in but sixteen games, during which he
made twenty-four hits, eight Of which
were for two bases.
Baltz, in finishing second, produces a
surprise that was entirely unexpected,
pitchers as rule being poor hitters.
Arrelanes of Santa Cruz was third
Stanley of Sacramento heads the
catchers in the fielding averages, and
Moskiman the pitchers.
In heavy hitting Arrelanes Of Santa
Cruz unquestionably carries off the
honors with nine three-baggers and

Borland of Sacramento has been the
star home run hitter of the season.

and four two-ba gers.

ECHOES OF THE WAR.
Stereopticon Exhibition at the
CONGREGATIONAL Church.

The Illustrated lecture given at the
Congregational Church last evening by
j. w. Erwin, President Of the California
Camera Club, drew a full house, and
was both interesting and instructive.
The slides shown represented pic
torial history of the late unpleasant
ness with Spain, and the reproduction
of the camps, marches and battles of
the troops, as caught by the camera,
was the next thing to seeing them in
motion. And "Uncle's" great white
navy-lead- al the time the guns
roared-was thrown upon the canvas
ship by ship, and all that remains of the
swift cruisers of the Spanish navy
which deface the waters of Manila and
at Santiago were also shown, giving
an idea of the horrors as we'll as the
glories of war.
Fleeting pictures Of naval and army
officers who bore prominent parts in
the war aroused considerable enthusi-
asm, showing that all of the people do
not forget heroes in six weeks
The lecturer also showed the comical
side Of the war, as depicted by noted
cartoonists. Fine views of the coun-
try surrounding Manila and of different
sections Of the town and herbor were
shown.
Mr.. Erwin stands high as lecturer
and his talk ripples along and his pic
lures fit into it with an ease and nicely
seldom equaled. During the lecture a
collection was taken for the benefit of
the Sunday-school.

Y. NJ. G. A. BUILDING.
An Effort is Being Made to Have it
Improved.

The directors Of the local Y NJ. G. A.
have been for some weeks past trying
to secure from the citizens of Sacra-
mentO subscriptions to enable them to
fit up and build on TO their newly ac-
quired property on the corner of Fifth
and street that it may be adapted to
association work
They are meeting with fair success
in their efforts. In fact, they have
now progressed so far as to be assured
that they can carry out their plans
in part. If the business houses and
citizens who will yet be asked to con-
tribute to this cause respond as liber-
ally as they should a modern, we'll
equipped Y. NJ. G. A. for our city will
be the result
Coils P. Huntington has sent in
subscription of 50, 500, which very ma
terially helps in the enterprise. If for
mer residents help so literally surely
present ones should do all they can to
prosecute this much needed work
1t is proposed to overhaul the build
ing now on the property and remodel
the lower floor, making a reading
room, parlor, gameroom and Office in
the front, and a hall in the rear. At
the back Of the present building a large
gymnasium will be built, which will be
fitted up with all the best modern ap-
paratus. The bathrooms and class
rooms will be in the basement. In ad-
dition to this, it is hoped that the sub
scriptions will enable the directors to
build a handball court and swimming
tank on the lot in the rear of the gym
nasium.
Such a building as this would be
credit to the city and show that it is
keeping abreast with the Eastern cities
of it's size in their care for the welfare
of young men. 1t is hoped that citi-
zens will give literally to this worthy
institution
