The JOURNAL turned Its baseball
reporter loose this week and that verv

l"S very Instructive report
Last Tuesday afternoon | met the big and
genial John Chambers, president of the
Driving Park Association, and chairman of
the baseball committee As the weather was
conducive to outdoor sport, thought it good
chance to find out what the chances were for
baseball so | accOSted the big one:
Mr.. Chambers have you any news regard
ing baseball here this season?
ChamberS-Wel. we are prepared to talk
baseball with any organized club in this To-
cality. We, ofcourse, prefer to have the same
team play this season that represented the old
town last. We have organized and elected our
directory and committee and would be pleased
to meet the baseball boys on friendly terms
and, if practicable, arrange to have the
club get together as soon as possible. The
grounds are in excellent condition; the fences
and grand stand will be repaired as soon as
the weather permits and | feel sure If the
boys and ourselves can come to some terms
the season now approaching can be made
both pleasant and profitable. However,
would advise you to see my colleagues on the
commttee-Messrs. Asphalt and Hitchins,
and hear what they have to say regarding the
matter.
MIR. Aspnall was seen and he said
Put me down ditto
| had a talk also with manager Dillon
who said
j.! am out of the game altogether. Last
season we had good strong team and was
fairly successful financially and otherwise.
| did my best to keep the team together but
the boys got disguised with the way the AS
ISOLATION treated them and concluded to dis
band. | have tried to get them together sew
eral times the past month, but have failed
So you see am out of a Job so far as base
ball is concerned as | am IA manager with
nobody to manage
Ollie Gunnett, the premier third baseman
and winner of the gold medal for the best
batting record of last seasons team, was next
seen and asked-why the club was not
organized?
Ollie-The boys refuse to play at the Driy-
ing Park on the same conditions as last wear
Why, last season we PLAYED about twenty
games at the Park. We had to stand all the
expenses for balls, bats, bases lithographs,
&c. We put up all the guarantees for the
played when our percentage did not pay the
guarantee; consequently, we had to 90 down
in our Jeans and make the guarantees good
All this time the Driving Park people were
making money, as they got 40 Der cent of all
gate receipts and everything that went on the
grand stand. Vale Summit, Midland, Iona
coming Hard Scrabble, Never Seen or any
other place, had the same privilege to play on
the Park grounds as we though they never
had to put up guarantees as we did. They
played and received their sixty per cent. of the

An attempt to burn a block of build

already given notice that they will
cancel all policies on the entire block "
A vote against the additional bonds
In frostburg is not vote merely to
depend upon rain, but it will be a

ADMIRAL SCHLEY ILL.

Admiral Schley is slightly IL at II Q
home of his daughter, Mrs. R. s. Wor
ley, Westport, Conn. He arrived
there Saturday evening, and soon after
retiring complained of illness. AS he
grew more restless, DR.. J. G.. Gregory,
of Norwalk, was called, who said :
After q few days of absolute quiet
Admiral Schley Will be out again. His
condition is just this-For weeks he
was floating on stesl-clad vessel in an
atmosphere the temperature of which,
he says, ranged from 100 to 1O5 de
grees. He did not have the food that
men require in hot weather. This was
complicated by the awful strain OF
watching and waiting for the Spanish
squadron to come out OF the harhor cf
Santiago, followed by the excitement
of July 3, and OF the reception to the
squadron in New York Saturday. Now
tnat the excitement has passed, and
his nerves are released, the reaction
after that rare experience has had the
effect of completely unnerving him for
few days, but at the end of that time
he will return to his normal condition,
unless something unforeseen occurs"

OHIO DEMoCRATs.-Quite q number
Of delegates are in Dayton, O, for the
democratic State convention, which
meets tomorrow. While the conven-
ton does not assemble until tomorrow,
the real contest comes to day at the
district and committee meetings, when
The new State central committee and
other committees are to be selected.
The feature Of the convention is con-
fest for control of the State organiza
tion. which will be directly elective
next wear when nominations are to be
made for Governor and other State Of
fees. and indirectly in 1900 on the NOM
ination for President. Elk Congress
man Paul J. Sorg, who is mentioned
for the gubernatorial nomination next
wear. is classed as Bryan man. Allen
O. Myers, George Karb, James Boss
and others, who were in charge of the
last campaign, are also classed as Bry-
an men. Judge Allen Smalley, who
will deliver the keynote speech as tenn
norery chairman Of the convention, is
enthusiastic for Bryan. The pro-
pounced gold democrats are not CO.
operating in the convention. The
fighting i between those who supported
Rryan, and the oonvention>is is expected
to declare strongly for free silver.

The design for The sword 10 be pre-
sented to Admiral Dewey by Congress
in commemoration of the first battle OF
Manila, was on exhibition at the Wsr
Department yesterday. 1t is the work
of Tiffany, the New York jeweler, and
has been accepted by the committee
having the matter in charge. Tha

will have q solid gold hilt, and will be
trimmed with gold. There is to be q
magnificent emerald at the top of the
hit, the emerald being Admiral's 5
Dewey's birth stone. The wording on
the blade is simple, consisting of the
following sentence: "The gift of the
government TO Rear Admiral Dewey
for his victory at Manila, May /, 1895 y
Congress passed law soon after the
victory at Manila, authorizing the pre-
sentation to Admiral Dewey Of
the sword, and 10 the ollicels
and men o. his fleet each Il
medal of brorza. The amount au-
thorizedSler the sword and medals was
