NOT in SERVICE VET,
The Police Resolution by Three
Aldermen Is not Used by
the Mayor. 43Sss

The resolution for four policemen
that was passed by an affirmative
vote OF three aldermen, was prompt
ly signed as passed by the mayor
and city clerk, and published Off
cially. But the mayor has failed to
act under it. He is still appointing
three special officers every other day
for two day terms. 1t is possible
that some of the city officers
thought they were doing something
when a resolution was declared
passed by minority OF the alder
men. But the mayor apparently
does not believe that the resolution
has any force. .t
The city clerks order for $3.50, that
was allowed by q vote of three al
dermen, was promtly issued, regis
tered and negotiated.

YES, II THE PRINTERS WON
The Rags Put up a Good Game,
but the Prints We're too
Much for Them.

The Rags and the Prints played q
game of ball in the southern part OF
the city Sunday afternoon. The
boys had done considerable practic-
ing for the last week, so both sides
were determined to win a victory.
They started out and played good
ball up to the sixth inning when, on
account Of numerous errors, the
scores ,on each side were mate
rally changed.
Score:
Printers. ...........O 1O2 l 27 3-17.
Rags. 20 l 0 20 l-l5.
The boys lined up in the following
manner:
Printers. Rags.
Poindexter.. ....pitcher... Hutchinson
Lebeau.. catcher. Wright
L.. Vasaly.. first base. .Barden
Lafond.. second base. ,. Hoffman,
Kerr. third base. Brown
G. Moeglein.. short stop........King
Foster. left field........E. Gravel
P. Vasaly. center field. .Lachance
Harting. right field...... j. Moeglein
The Prints were given the chance
to swing the bat first. 1t did no
good for they couldn't reach first.
The rags then picked up the bat and
before three men could be called out,
they had put three men over the
home plate.
In the second inning the Prints
scored one, while the Rags went
them better and scored two men.
In the third inning both teams
played good ball. Each shut the
other team out. The Prints went to
bat in the fourth inning and made
two scores. In the latter half OF the
inning the Rags added a score on an
error. During the next inning the
Prints scored one and shut out the
Rags. Tue sixth inning went against
the Prints. During the time they
were allowed to strike at the ball
they made single score. 1t then
became the Printers turn to toss
the ball. They is what they must
have done, for the Rags didn't do a
thing but cross six runners over the
home plate. This made things de-
cidelyss uneven. In the seventh in
ming both mines added two scores.
The Prints then went to bat and kept
swinging the bat until they man.
aged to get seven men around the
diamond. This tied the score which
made things interesting. Both
sides had another turn to bat the
the ball.
The Prints picked up the club and
ba tted the ball a sufficient number
OF times to score three runs. Their
adversaries famed a man, caught a
fly whichput out a second man, and
then threw the ball to second which
laid forest a base runner who was try
ing to reach third on fly ball. The
Rags now took their last chance at
the bat. They were three scores be-
hind when the inning began, and
when it closed they had made only q
single run. This made them two
scores behind at the finish. The
Prints famed man and put one
out on first. Another man batted a
fly ball which took to center field.
Vasaly was there and stuck to it.
Thus the game closed with the score
standing II to Is in favor of the
Prints.
The Rags are certainly the poorer
team of the two.
They changed pitchers three times,
but could not find the right man for
the place. They were evidently in
while playing but could not
carry out their desires. Sylvester
and Bourassa acted as umpires for
the boys.

bu now a Washington attorney, who
was arrested on charge of seduction,
was released from the First precinct
police alton in Washir g on on Sstur-

William Schnaebel. who claimed that
Yaeger seduced mis- daughter, E iih,.
who is fourteen years old. After the
arrest Mr.. Schnaebel called at Police
Headquarters and sought to get close

prisoner. The detectives prevented
the father from entering the room in

to allow the law to take its course.
Ysegar maintains that the accusation
is absurd, and claims that he never

SENSIBLE ADvICE.-Rev Alexander
Truatt, pastor of the Alfred street Bap.
tist Church, colored, yesterday preach
ed q most sensible sermon, during
which no gave his congregation and
race some excellent advice. He took
for his text, EVIL communications
corrupt good manners" and told his
hearers how important it was for them
to b. guided by this scriptural observa-
ton. He denounced the conduct Of
the colored men who fought aud made
SO much disorder at recent excursion
and said that if the colored people per-
sisted in acting in such a disgraceful
manner that the time would soon come
when they would not be allowed to
board steamboats, and cars and would
be excluded from public places. He
said the colored race was now on pro
baton and it was their duty to conduct
themselves decently and in order.
