JIM MCDONALD GOES EAST. The Popular and Well-Known Um. pire Member of the National
 League Staff

Jim McDonald, the popular baseball umpire. left last night for the East. where he will act as umpire In the National League. His departure will be regretted by every lover of baseball. as the quiet, dignified and impartial umpire has earned their regard by his just decisions He has always enjoyed the best of regulations in his chosen sphere. In the many hundreds of exciting contests in this city his deci- sions were never questioned by ball. player or spectator-something that Is un- usual.
 His impartiality in baseball led many fight promoters to acquire his services as referee. and, in baseball, he gave universal satisfaction It was disappoint- ing for followers of pugilism to read in The Call few days ago that President Young of the National League had nou- fled him not to referee any more contests, as they could always rely on Mcdonald giving an honest decision.
 Jim enjoys the distinction of being the only man besides Fitzsimmons of putting "Pompadour Jim' to sleep. He performed the deed while attending school with Cor bett in their younger days, and even to this day the future Congressman regards Mcdonald with respect, as he is built on the same lines as the ex-champion.

EXPERIENCE IS IGNORED.
The Selection Has Caused Consider able Comm ont in Police
 Circles.

For the next two weeks Sergeant Reu- ben Wolf, Chief Lees nephew, will act as captain of the Guy Prison. This fact was announced last night by Chief Lees In explanation of the change, the head or the Police Department said that Robin son had been granted two weeks leave of absence, and that he intended to visit his relatives in the East Just why Wolf was selected to take his place was the source of considerable comment at police headquarters. Since his appoint ment as patrolman Lees has been doing all in his power to promote him. Af-ar hard struggle. he finally managed to make him sergeant. Instead of assigning him to some district as is always the case, lne Chief detailed him to act in conjunc- ton with Captain -3opinson. His most la borious work was to Hook wise," as one of his fellow-officers expressed 1t, and smile benignly on the man in charge or the prison. Robinson has been contem- plating a trip to the East for some time, and the Chief. knowing this, had him school" his favored relative, so that he could take his place during ms absence;
 Yesterday Wolf assumed the duties or captain of the prison, much to the chasr1n of the men who have been acting as desk sergeants for long number Of years and who are manifestly more capable or
  son or Wolf.
 Chief Lees, however, is determined to provide for his pet relative, and 1t is more than likely that he will endeavor in the near future to advance him to the rank of captain, if the other commits sioners do not call a halt.
 When asked last night why Robinson was granted a leave of absence. Lees said:
 He Is entitled to vacation just the same as any other member of the de- partment and instead of taking it when his turn came he decided to walt until the present time, so that he could visit his relatives, who 1 believe live in the East. 1 appreciated Wolf in his place as I am thoroughly convinced that he is competent to fill the position. The fact that he is my nephew did not influence me in the least, and want that distinctly understood. Rube is all right, and don't you make any mistake about 1t. He will be captain as long as Robinson Is gone, and If these other fellows continue shooting off their mouths they will find themselves before the commissioners for violating a rule of the department. am running this department, and will do as 1 please"
 The Chief refused to discuss whether or not he had instructed Wolf to give the prisoners a more liberal allowance of bread than they received from Captain Robinson.
