Base Ball "Fans" Will Witness Local
Team In Action Thursday.
Arrangements have been completed for
the opening Of the base ball season at
Lexington park next Thursday, which
viii make the initial game of the season
on the home grounds one of the most
auspicious events in the history of the
national game in this city. The grounds
are already in excellent condition, the
team will return from its trip in seasoned
condition to put UP rafting game, and
the ensemble of distinguished personages
In the grand stand will lend an eclat to
the occasion seldom before witnessed.
Gov Lind has acknowledged an invita-
ton to be present, and, as an honor sell
dom rendered even governors, will be re-
Quested to toss the first ball over the
plate II the batter Is onto the chief ex-
ecutives curves and send the sphere out
on University avenue there will be other
balls and the game will proceed. for
NAL invitation has been forwarded to
Senator Davis and 800 other prominent
citizens. 1t is the hope of Manager Com
iskey that Gov. Lind. Senator Davis and
all others invited will be transformed by
the first game into a triumvirate of
fans that will follow the fortunes of the
local club through the season until the
coveted pennant has been unfurled from
the Flagstaff at Lexington park.
The team will arrive home at 1:30
Thursday afternoon from Milwaukee
That there will be some scalps dangling
from the players belts is almost a fore
gone conclusion that will add enthusiasm
to the reception that will be accorded the
team. At the depot the teams will be
met by carriages, and, augmented by the
Kansas City players. will be escorted
about the city in a grand parade. A
brass band will lead the procession, her
aiding the gladstone news that the base
ball season for local admirers of the game
is about to open.
After the reception the team will pro-
ceed to Lexington park, where it is ex-
pected they will be greeted by filed
grandstand and bleachers The game will
be called at 3:45 o'clock
Beginning Friday, the popular institu-
ton of former years known as Ladies'
day. will be observed at the park Fri
day of each week women will be admitted
to the grandstand free.

took out his pocket knife, and cut the
cords that held Costello's gloves on his
hands. There was pop like the report
of a pistol as the glove flew loose. Cos
tello's hand was swollen to enormous
size. He had broken it, and dared not
strike blow. Woods was worn out,
and fearful of a knockout. hence he
was afraid to go after Costello The lat
ter had saved a battle by feinting, with
out landing blow. The crowd In that
Instance was wrong, 1t was no fake.
SULLIVAN AND MITCHELL.
No one ever accused John L. Sullivan
of taking. He did not know how. I re-
fer to the Sullivan-Mitchell fight at Chan
tilly to demonstrate conclusIvely that
good men can agree to a draw without
bringing upon themselves the calumny Of
fake" The Sullivan Mitchell fight was
declared draw. After thiry-rine rounds
Of fighting the friends Of Sullivan saw
that the big fellow was in no condition
to continue the foot race with Mitchell
Indefinitely. Sullivan had not trained
day. He was disconsolate. Mitchell was
no better He was only too willing to
accept a draw. That was good enough
for him. and far better than he had ex-
pected And so 1t was agreed that the
affair should be called draw No one
complained. There was room for com
plaint. The principals had perfect right
out to fight to a finish.
MLEOD AND BURNS.
All this leads up to the recent wrestling
match In ST. Paul between Mel cod and
Burns. two Of the best wrestlers in the
| world today. There has been n noun
tain made out of a molehill In that af-
fair. II Mcleod and Burns saw fit to
agree to draw on that occasion, as they
/ did. 1t does not follow that thoy had ar
| ranged that the result should be Il draw
Under he rules there Is no room for ques-
tfoning the right Of the men to SO agree
There Is no evidence of barney In the
affair. 1t Is not necessary for two clever
wrestlers to maui and haul each other
about as did Mcleod and Burns to make
the crowd believe they are In earnest
On the contrary, they could make bet
ter showing by taking 1T easy and wrest-
ling pretty" / believe the mon wrestled
on the level. But that Is not the prin-
cfpal question. Tho contention is: Did
the club that hung up the purse have
right to withhold 1t? There Is well-es-
tablished rule In sporting events that COW
ers this case, as 1t does all others There
Is no going back of 1t. 1t is: THE de-
cision Of the referee is irrevocab,e With
the decision of the referee goes all bets"
And with the decision OF the referee goes
the purse as we'll.
AUTOCRATIC POWER
With the referee rests the whole re-
sponsibiltty. He Is the autocrat He
could have prevented draw If he saw
fit. Had he concluded that the match
was not to be on the level, he could have
so declared to the spectators and ordered
the men from the mat. All the rules un-

first game captured this season by the
Tigers. Elberfeld and Tebeau were both
put out of the game for kicking, and the
loss Of the first baseman was seriously
felt by the visitors. 1t was bad fielding,
due In part to this crippled condition.

physician of Meudon, France. To exam
Inc the throat of one of his children, he
held lighted candle before its open
mouth and placed the handle of a spoon
on the base of the tongue, when there
the throat, and the Doctors mustache

produced slight retching, which brought
little infammable gas from the stom-

the Western league list today, and In
dianapolis took the other end Of It, Once
more the local team out-batted the visit
ors and lost. But luck was not to blame
today. Bad ball playing did it. Six err
rors were made by the home team while
the Bisons played without a break. This
difference In the error column served
easily to overcome any advantage which
two extra hits might have given the
Hoosers. Foreman was on the slab for
the Indians, and. despite the errors be-
hind him, kept his head and pitched out
a good game. The home team touched
up Brown for nine hits, but they were
not punched. and perfect fielding kept
down the score. Out of the six errors
made by the locals four were in the
outfeld. two by Fleming at left and two

CHICAGO, April 29.-It is more than
probable that the Grand American
handicap shoot will be held in the West
next year. Already Eastern shooters
have broached the idea of transferring
the great event from Elkwood park
westward, and Western sportsmen stand
ready to make all necessary arrange
ments. 3. E. Rice, the well known man
ager, has received a letter from Irby
Bennett, vice president of the Interna-
tional association, practically assuring
Mr.. Rice that the West could have the
shoot If 1t wanted 1t. Mr.. Bennett want
ed to know what arrangements could be
made for holding the shoot here. AS
Mr.. Bennett is also chairman Of the
committee on grounds and location, the
latter may be regarded a direct pro-
posal. Before the Western shooters left
for the East the matter of a Western
association was under discussion. 1t
was intended to hold a great shoot in
Chicago next year, at which It was as
serted every shooter Of note would be
present.
