Princes Team Wound Up the Season
Early-Base Ball Briefs.

"Beany' Princes Coshocton team
wound up it's little ball of yarn yesterday.
The team played gilt-edged ball, but was
not patronized Salaries were due yester-
day and there was not a sufficient sum
in the club treasury to meet the demands
upon it. The Decoration Day receipts,
which were relied upon to tide the club
over it's financial troubles, fell short of
the amount expected. "Beany is not a
Napoleon of finance, and he found it i'm
possible to raise the wind. The only al
tentative was to bust and he busted. :"
There is a job lot of good, bad and indif-
ferent ball players in the Ohio State
market, and the best will be gobbled up
by the astute managers. President Ham
mond was early appraised of the situation
which he had anticipated by engaging in
a Irritation with East Liverpool. 1t Is
row given out that the Crockery City will
enter the Ohio State household, and pre-
serve the organization intact. They are
a cheap lot of sports in Coshocton. The
admission was reduced to fifteen cents. it
is said, and yet they would not attend
the games.

1t is more than likely that President
Power has an important proposition to
submit to Messrs. Starr and BUGGY, and 1t
cannot be anything less than the offer of
a berth in the Interstate League. Mr.
Power did not come to Wheeling, as was
expected, but instead he asked the Wheel
ing club to send a representative to Pitts
burg to see him. Mr.. BUGGY may go up
to-day.

FLORISTS STIMULATE EXHIBITORS
horticultural building Takes on New
Life with Their Wait


Under Ordinary circumstances Friday
would have been an Off day in the Horti-
cultural building. but knowing that the
norists were to nay the place visit, the
| exhibitors did their best to shine up their
fruit and have everything ready for in
spection. There were crowds Of people in
the building all of the time, but the big
rusn came when the florists and their
friends put In an appearance.
Illinois got to the front yesterday and
put on exhibition some ten varieties OF new
pears and big lot Of apples and peaches.
| Just now the state seems to be devoting it's
| energies to making great display of pears,
| and all Of the orchardlsts are sending in
| large quantities. One Of the long tables
| originally intended for apples has been
| turned over to the pear exhibitors, who have
| used w most Of the space thus allotted.
Nebraska has beautifed one of its tables
by having several ornamental designs
| worked out In small fruits. The designs are
| In the form of wheels, circles and things
| OF that kind, while the centers are filled
| with bouquets Of sweet peas and geraniums.
Oh the outside of the designs there are
large plates filled with grapes, crab apples
| and berries. The state has struck some-
| thing else that is new Superintendent
Youngers has skirmished around and has
| made collection Of hazel nuts and chest
| nuts which he takes much pride in show
| ing, as it has always been contended that
these nuts especially the chestnuts, will
| not grow in this country.
Kansas has added to It's horticultural ex-
! hibit largely within the last few days, and
is now showing some of the finest grapes,
apples and peaches that have been seen
since the fruit commenced to come into the
building.
For the purpose OF keeping in the front
ranks, Superintendent Wilson Of the South
ern California exhibit has sent on and has
secured a lot Of new fruit from Bishop &
Co., who reside near his home in Los
Angeles. The shipment arrived yesterday
and contained crystallized fruit, the first
shown. The preparing Of this fruit in
California, Superintendent Wilson says, is
new industry, and until three years ago
the process was unknown. Even now the
method Of preparing the fruit is a secret,
known only to the fruiter who puts out the
product.
Notwithstanding the fact that the orange
crop Of California has been reported short
Superintendent Wilson says that he will
show new citrous fruit until the close Of the
exposition, and that instead Of his exhibit
growing smaller, 1t will increase.
