Understand, The Sentinel does
not care a rap that two members of
the city council are now employed
and have been employed upon
public works, as sub bosses, which
in their official capacity they must
sit in judgment upon. 1t is just to
call the attention of those parties
who have yelled bribery for years
that it is direct violation OF law
for them to be so employed. These
men may, and possibly do, per-
form their duties as councilmen
just as honestly notwithstanding
they are directly violating the law
in being employed upon work
which is being done by the city.
Whatever the character of the
work being done on the sewerage
system, they must accept it as
councilmen, having bossed the job,
else they would be repudiating
their own work.

Labor Day is holiday in every
sense Of the word. The statutes in
Colorado declares that no laborer
shall he discharged by reason Of his
absence from work on Labor Day.
Many laborers do not know this.
And then again. in many Of the
large establishments where large
number Of men are employed the
workers are all foreigners, who do
not as rule care to join in the
celebration Of American holidays.
At any rate, it will be well to make
the day general holiday this year
anyhow.-Pueblo Courier.

DIAMOND DUST.

In thirty games Jennings made but
one error on first base for Brooklyn.
The New Yorks have yet to play an
errorless game. They are elsIy last
Of the -league clubs in fielding.
McGraw says his club is not out OF
the race by any means. St. Louis is
likely TO put on a great squirt at any
stage Of the game, according to the
little scrapper. With Young and Pow
ell bac, in form there is ample cause
for his opinion.
President Hart has offered to raise
$4,000 to be divided among his plav-
ers at the end of the season should the
team win the pennant Of this the
club will contribute 5000 and the
public $4,000 There is small likeli-
hood Of the players sharing this fat
purse
Players nowadays don't stick in the
game as they used to. declares Catch
er Robinson. why. there was Harry
Stoyey. one Of the greatest base run
ners that ever wore spike. and he
was man with very poor legs. In
almost every game he would break
down, yet he never thought of such a
thing as sitting on the bench"
The Chicagos are very anxious to Sc
cure Lajoie- Lajoie is in trouble with
the Philadelphia management. and
President Hart would give many thou
sands for the big Frenchman and there
is still a faint hope of getting him.
Lajoie and Flick have maintained an
armed neutrality since their fight, aud
Lajoie has practically demanded the
discharge of Flick. so one or the other
may be turned loose. Either one
would be a winner for Chicago.
The longer 1 stay in base ball the
more impressed am with the fact that
it is most uncertain game says Sc
lee. when we went to New York on
our last trip we expected to have a
very hard time of it. for the Giants
had been doing good work against the
Phillies. However. it was very easv

you expect to have a hard time they
