Baseball Notes

Pitcher Lee will play at Matthews, Ind,
this season.
OutfeIder Dobbs arrived, yesterday. and
was on the coaching line for few innings.
Dibby Flynn played well at second yes
terday, and was also in evidence with the
stick.
The players left at home will be in
charge of Catcher Powers and VIII pracuce
daily.
"A large force OF workmen will be put to
work on the park and by Wednesday 1t
will be improved a million per cent
Dammann was hit pretty lively yester-
day. but he simply "lobbed'' them over.
as it is still little too chilly for pitchers
TO let their arms out.
HartzelI did some great playing in left
yesterday. Manager Watkins has last
outfield. made up Of players who can cover
lots of territory. can throw we'll and can
hit the ball.
The Indianapolis team will return home
to meet Butler College, on Wednesday,
and Pittsburg on Thursday, Friday and
Saturday. Goar and Barnes VIII propaoly
do the pitching in Wednesdays game.
The stick work of the Indianapolis team
will be a feature Of this seasons work, and
last night Manager Watkins said he be-
lieved he has together a stronger team
than any that has ever represented In
dianapolis. He is we'll satisfied with the
men.
1t has been said ii is unlucky to win the
first pot" but the Indianapolis players
do not think so. judging from the manner
in which they went after yesterdays con-
test The locals did not relish the idea OF
being defeated by the Eastern League
champions and went in and won.
Captain Madison, Kelly, Seybol5 and
Guese have caught on with the crowd. Sey-
bold is a very fast outfielder and a good
sticker, while Kelly and Madison cover
their positions in League form. Guese
handled himself we'll and with warmer
weather will be a very effective twirler.
Yesterday was the first day in which the
Indianapolis players have lined up a
regular diamond and were put before balls
batted on the ground. The practice. so far
has been very limited, owing TO the poor
weather and the grounds not being in
good condition, but they acquitted them
selves well.
The indianapolis team left for st. Louis
last night, where games are scheduled for
to-day, tomorrow and Tuesday. Hickey
and Stewart will meet the team at that
city. Manager Watkins took with him
Catchers Lynch and Heydon and Pitchers
Guese, Sanders, Gardner, Kellum and
Dammann. The remainder of the team
that played in yesterdays game Was also
taken.

MARION COUNTY LEAGUE.
Two Leagues Closed Their Seasons
Last week-Postponed Games
May Not BE Counted.

The Marion County and Independent
Bowling leagues concluded their seasons
last week, but there are still three post
poned games between the Stone Palace
and Nonpareil, in the Marion County
League. The members of both teams in
sist that the games will be played off,
which will be done next Friday night, but
1t is believed the directors of the league
will decide not TO include the games in the
championship season. The rules adopted
by the American Bowling Congress. under
which this league played, declares that
all postponed games must be played within
ten days after the postponement This was
not done, and consequently the directors
will probably decide to throw out the
games TO be played next Friday evening.
Cliff Allen, a member of the Oneida team,
won the championship in the league with
an average of 17S and a fraction. Allen
made a remarkable finish in the games last
Friday night and widened the narrow gap
between him and Graft. The official aver
ages of the league have not been compiled,
but the first five men stood as follows:

Evidence in Nier Casc.

A portion of the evidence in the cases
OF the State against Isaac Nier, who is
charged with receiving stolen goods and
with arson, was heard yesterday in Police
Court and the cases continued until Tues
day next. There was no testimony intro
ducey yesterday except that for the State,
and it was not materially different from
the claims made by Jacob Gunter and
Isaac Goldman, chief witnesses for the
State, and already published. Gunter said
that Nier owned two barrel houses and
after moving stock from one place and
replacing it with empty barrels, asked him
to set fire TO the place. Gunter was on
the stand and was subjected TO a severe
Cross-examination which did not shake his
previous testimony.

IOWA DEMOCRATS.


Des Moines, Ia, May 1.-THE demo
cratic state convention selected for
delegates-at-large to the Kansas City
convention: Cato Sells, Of Ninton;
Charles A. Walsh, of Ottumwa; John
S. Murphy, of Dubuque; George Ba-
ker. of Davenport.
The proceedings were characterized
by harmony throughout and the con-
yention was the largest held by the
democrats of this state in recent
years, nearly 1000 delegates being
present The prevailing sentiment
was Overwhelmingly for Bryan and
the delegates were instructed to vote
as unit for Him at Kansas City. In
the framing of the platform the more
conservative element prevailed. The
Chicago platform is Endorsed and the
gold standard denounced, but the ra-
ito of 16 to does not appear in the
resolutions. Trusts and imperialism
are denounced and the election of
United States senator's by direct vote
of the people is favored.

METHODIST CONFERENCE.


Chicago, May 5.-There were plenty
of empty seats when the third session
of the Methodist Episcopal general
conference began yesterday, but later
many of them were filled and the at
tendance brought up to the average.
There were many delegates in the
house with resolutions and papers
concerning the amusement question.
Rev. William Fawcett, of Chicago.
though not delegate himself, had
given his views in favor of greater
liberty in the matter of amusements
to delegate, while c. W. Pearson,
of the Northwestern university,
handed his plea to Secretary Monroe.
The report of the treasurer of the
episcopal fund showed that the ex-
penditures of the fund were in excess
of the receipts in all but one year Of
the quadrennium and that the excess
of 1899 was not sufficient to bring the
total receipts for the four years up
to the expenditures of the same
period. The total receipts for the
quadrennium were $34T,52T.16, and the
total expenditures 360,SS5.06. The
surplus at the beginning of the quad
rennium was S23,s24, and the fund
was reduced to 81 ,466. In 1899 the re-
ceipts exceeded the expenditures by
A,5s2.

John W. +. Bowen, acting president

THROWN FROM THE TRACK.
Passengers In a Car of n Train on the Grea
Northern Badly Shaken Up-Lit-
tie Freight Moving.

Great Falls, Mont, May 4.-The
through passenger train from the
east on the Great Northern was
thrown from the track Wednesday in
the yards here. Passengers in one
car We're badly shaken up, but no
serious damage was done. Strikers
claim they had nothing to do with it.
Forty additional deputy sheriffs have
been appointed to patrol the yards.
No freight is moving except a little
attached to passenger trains. The
strikers have tried to interfere with
that, but without much success. 1t
is supposed the company now has
men coming from the east to take the
places of the strikers, as hunks are
being erected for their accommoda-
ton. So far the strikers have had
no assistance from the engineers,
firemen or passenger crews.

ALLEGED LETTER OF CHRIST.
what Pr0f. Murray, OF the British Mu-
scum, Says Regarding the ke-
cent Discovery.

London, May 3.-Prof. George II.
NJ. Murray, keeper of the department
of botany in the British museum,
when questioned by the correspond
ent of the Associated press yester-
day regarding the reported rcdiscov-
cry, after being lost for more than
900 years, of letters alleged to have
passed between Christ and King
Agrippa and to have been carved in
stone over the gateway of the palace
of the kings Of Ephesus, says:
There Is no doubt that the inspection
found at Ephesus is a genuine produce
ton OF the Fifth century, Beyond that
nothing definite can be said, except that
1t is In the nature of confederation of
the Syrian writings of the second CEN
fury discovered a few years ago, relat-
Ing to alleged messages between Christ
and Agrippa The fact that these a.
legged letters between Christ and Agrip-
pa were used as a charm by Christians
In the Fifth century on their lintels is
established, but this would not prove
that any such correspondence occurred.
Certain Syrian documents. dated in the
year 200 A, d., and giving almost the
same letters, have long been suspected
of being literary forgerles, The dscov-
cry of the stone tends to relieve this sus-
picion and makes II tolerably certain
that, as early as the second century
news of Christ's miracles had spread to
heather countries and that the early
Christians believed that Asrippa asked
Christ to come to heal him and that
Christ replied. The alleged answer is al
most Il paraphrase of much that is found
In the New Testament, Whether 1t was
actually sent or was the result of a con-
tinuing tradition transferred from napy-
rus to stone Is a question opening too
wide field for mere archaeologist,
Many points in Prof Heberdey's dlscov-
cry, however, are most important,

CURE YOURSELF AT HOME.
THE G0EBEL ASSASSINATION.


Frankfort, KY, May 5.-IIearing of
the evidence in the case of W. II. Gull
ton, charged with completely in the
Goebel assassination was resumed
yesterday. Capt. j. +. Howe, a Bar
bourville military officer, testified
that Caleb and John Powers come to
him ten days before the assassination
and tried to get him to bring his
company to Frankfort disguised as
citizens. He declined to do so unless
ordered by Gov. Taylor.
Ed Steffe, who was standing on
the portico in front of the statehouse,
saw Goebel fall. Immediately after
the shot he looked toward the exec
utive building and thought he saw
the barrel of rifle pointing out of
the window of the Office of the sec
rotary of state. The rifle was drawn
in and the window closed
AT the night sitting of the court
ex-State Auditor i. c. Norman testi-
fled that prior to the assassination he
overheard Judge George Denny, of
Lexington, say. Somebody ought
to kill Goebel and Gov. Taylor ought
to pardon the man who did it," He
said the tenor of Denny's CONVERSE
ton was that Goebel's death would
save the lives of other people.
Assistant Secretary of State j. B.
Matthews stated that pardons were
issued to Charles Finley, John i.
Powers, llarland Whitaker and pos
sbly W. II. Culton. The witness first
said pardon had been issued to Gull
ton but later said he was not sure
as to Culton, but thought he entered
u pardon for him at the Same time he
entered the other three pardons and
those to Caleb Powers and John Da-
Wis, March 10. The hearing viii con-
clude to-day.
