Another minor complicat ton in the situa-
ton appeared last night. when Wagner
stated to several reporters that Washing
ton would be in the league next year, but
the circuit would be only eight clubs. He
would not explain what he meant. H. D.
Quin of the new American Association
wired that his association would be glad
to put teams in the two eastern cities that
were to be dropped.
Another effect of the sudden change in
the situation Is in President N. E. Youngs
position. 1t Is known that there was plan
formed to try to sacrifice Uncle Nick on
the altar of Freedman's dislike and make
Ban Johnson president, although Mr..
Young's term does not expire for two years.

The officer in Command.

question was recently presented TO the
major general commanding the army by
a post and regimental commander as to
whether the senior captain present at a
post where there are two or more battal-
ions. should take command of a battalion
whose commander is disabled regardless of
he battalion in which he is serving Gen.
Miles decided that the subject matter is
one that should be regulated by the regi-
mental commander, but as a general prom
csition, in case of the temporary disability
of a battalion commander the comma nd
would naturally devolve on the officer next
n rank in that battalion.

Arrangements are being made for a se-
ries of games of more than ordinary in
terest. Bowlers will recall that there was
considerable talk toward the close of last
season in reference to a match between a
representative Baltimore team and one
picked from among the local experts. This
fell through, primarily for the reason that
the Baltimore party in whose hands the
arrangements for that city were left in
sisted upon certain conditions that were
not satisfactory to President Stiles of the
washington league MIR. Stiles has sue
ceeded at last IN again interesting Baltf-
more parties in the matter, and, under the
capable direction of Mr.. Frank Cauchv

bowling affairs in the monumental CITY il

cared Tor The details have not as yet APP
preached a tangible condition. hui the nar-
ties interested will shortly meet, and an
outline OF the matter will be formulated.

A TALE OF ZULULAND.
THE REV. JOHN L. DUDE TELLS OF HIS
WORK IN SOUTH AFRICA.
HE EXPECTS TO ESTABLISH CHRISTIAN INDUS
FOR ELEvAT1NG HIS PEOPLE.


TRIAL SCHOOL IN NATAI-HIs PLANS
FOR ELEvAT1NG HIS PEOPLE.
MY grandmother. who the wife of a chief Of
of the Zulu tribes. died In Natal. South Africa,
last year. at the of one hundred and six years.
said the Rev. John L. DUDE, recently to Tribune
reporter. Her fortitude through persecution
changed the history Of her tribe and her consistent
Christian life left an influence that bids fair to be
far-reaching. Until few weeks before her death
she walked two miles to church every Sunday,
and. when finally too feeble to walk. was carried
there a wheelbarrow
The Rev. John l.. DUDE was ordained In Brooklyn
on March 10. and with his wife, also a native Zulu.
sailed for South Africa recently. Mr. and Mrs.
DUDE have been In this country fitting themselves
for the work Of the Christian Industrial School In
Natal which they expect to open upon their return.
Two skilled mechanics-a carpenter and a mason
accompanied them, and they hope soon to have a
blacksmith added to their force. Five hundred
acres of land have been given them for the school
by Mr.. Dube's uncle, Chief Umqawe, and farming
is also to be taught.
In speaking OF his life and work just before he
sailed, Mr. DUDE said IL born twenty-nine
years ago In the mission station in Inanda. Natal
Ny fathers family was of the blood royal OF Zulu
land, and for several generations seems to have
been imbued with the spirit of reform. My grand
father chief of one of the most powerful Zulu
tribes. Incurred the jealousy of his cousin, King
Chaka, because of the popularity he had won by
his clement rule
After the death OF my grandfather at the hands
Of Chaka's warriors his favorite wife, with her
young son (ny father, fed to Natal. There she
met the pioneer South African missionary Daniel
Lindey, and converted TO Christianity. From
that time until her death last year. she adhered
to that faith through many difficulties.
Her tribe bitterly resented her adoption of the
white mans religion. and the consequent leading
astray of their young chief from the worship of his
ancestors She prosecuted In every way, her
cornfields burned. and she was obliged to flee
for refuge TO Mr.. Lindey. He took her and the
child into his home, where they remained for many
years.
"As my father grew older he stood by his mother.
Finally when the time arrived for him to assume
the chieftainship he visited by delegation
from the tribe, and was told that he must now
decide one way the other. but that they would
not be ruled over by one who had departed from
the customs of their fathers. HIS reply was Go
and tell the tribe that II were to be the king OF
the entire tribe Of Africa would not give up my
new-fOund faith.
Another son of my grandfather Ohe present
Chief Umqawe) was appointed In my fathers place.
He Is now an old man. and although still a
