the story of the inauguration Of the

many people asserted at the time, was
intended for political effect. The pump
ing station is still there, and visitors
are welcome under the new administra-
ton, but taxpayers are not providing
free transportation and brass band

That competition between the pump
and the Opera House band cost the
taxpayers exactly $50, and it has been
a toss-up ever since as to which got

dent Charles thinner, of the Players
Protective Association, and who last
year played with the %Pittsourg National
League club, to-day announced his re-
tirement as a professional base ball
player. 1t is understood that the dis
satisfaction and u~nfavoraible comment
expressed by many players over Zim-
mer's action at the recent meeting Of
the National League led him to take
the step. thinner says he has returned
his contract for this season to the Pitts
burg club unsigned.
Speaking Of his retirement thinner
said:
II have been charged with double
dealing and everything else by mem
bers of the Protective Association, not
w~ithstanding that | succeeded in get
ting from the National League mag
mates the precise concessions the play
ers demanded. | desire to reiterate
once more that | acted solely for the
best interests of the players and with
no selfish motive as some of the latter
continue to assert"
thinner has a private business in this
city which he says insures him a live
lihood without playing base ball.

Solemn. yet quietly elaborate were
the Baer-Adler nuptials, which occur
red last evening at the home of the
brides mother, Mrs. Sarah Horkheimer,
at SO Virginia street. The principals
were Mrs. Sarah Adler and Mr.. Benja-

Baer. The ceremony was performed
at Z o'clock in the reception rooms by
the Rev. Harry Levi, of the Hebrew
Synagogue, in the presence of only the
immediate relatives of the contracting
parties.
The ceremony vas the beautiful He
brew ring ceremony. The bride and

wedding march. They were ~unattend-

and groom had received the heartfelt
congratulations of the assembled

Ziegenfelder. During the hours the
guests were at table the Bridgeport

A very plausible explanation for the
failure Of the Republicans to insti-
tute legal proceedings to GUST the
present Office holders, after their oft
repeated threats to do so, was offered
yesterday. 1t is learned that an eff
fort was made to levy an assessment
upon members of the fire department
and employees of the city gas plant,
for the purpose Of paying the fees OF
attorneys employed by the Republic
cans. It is also said that the attempt
ended in fiat failure, and that the en-
ployes of these two departments
treated the attempt as a piece Of au-
dacious impudence, inasmuch as they
are in no way implicated in the fight,
and in any event the expense should
be borne by the ex-ofice holders who
would be the direct and sole benef-
Charles in the event that the legal pro-
ceedings were successful.
The matter was talked of by a
number who heard the story yester-
day, and the one opinion expressed
was that the old Office holders are the
nerviest individuals in Ohio county.
The legal proceedings were not
started yesterday, but Col. Geo. B.
Caldwell is quoted as saying that the
idea has not been abandoned, but
that unavoidable delay has been occa-
stoned by arranging papers. Some
people call it unavoidable delay"
others have another name for it. The
soliciting committee win probably be
started out again this morning. The
situation is becoming desperate.

of the Water Board yesterday, the Off

GOING RIGHT E
With the Work of Getting Into shape
for the Base Ball Campaign-Meet-
ing of Stockholders.

A meeting of stockholders of the
Wheeling Base Ball Club was held in
the parlor of the Park Hotel last
night. The situation was informally
discussed, and it was decided to apply
for a charter, with IN authorized CAPT
tai stock OF $4,000. This will be done
this mornuing. In order to proceed
legally, the directors will not be elect
ed until the charter arrives, and the
directors will choose q manager.
The question of grounds was dis,
cussed in a general and informal way.
Representatives of the Island County
Club, who were present, suggested
that the grounds on the Sisters Island
should be inspected, and that they
will be improved in accordance with
the plans and ideas OF the stockhold-
ers. 1t was decided to go up to look
over the ground early next week. 1t
is very likely that Dick Padden. OF
Martins Ferry, will accompany the
stockholders, and will give the bene-
fit of his experience in laying cut the
grounds.
1t is likely that the arrangements
for transportation to and from the
games will be made with the w. & l..
Il. Ry. Co., and that special trains will
run for each Sunday game.
There have been about fifteen or
twenty applications for places on the
team, many applicants being endors-
ed by former Wheeling players. AL
though late in signing a team, it is
still possible to get a number of good
men.
Stockholders do not credit the re-
port in an Associated Press telegram,
that Myers, Moutner and Strobel are
dickering with Indianapolis and
Louisville with a view to throwing
down Wheeling. This city was given
a franchise by a unanimous vote, and
It can only be acquired by purchase.

The oficials of the Metropolitan Ath-
letic Club have been trying to arrange
q match between Eddie Gardner and
Joe Bernstein for the night of April 1st,
and when they learned that Bernstein
would be in Wheeling yesterday they
supposed he was coming to take on
Eddie. Bernstein arrived yesterday
afternoon, looking to be in fine form.
The Eddie Gardner match vas a sur
prise to him. He came to Wheeling
with a commission to secure Oscar
Gardner and accompany him to the
coast Bernstein is willing to take Ed
die on, however. He expects to fight
Terry McGovern three weeks after Os-
cars battle with the Brooklyn boy. II
the match falls through he promises to
return to Wheeling and meet Eddie
about May 4th or 9Th.
Bernstein was sem to Wheeling by
Paddy Sullivan, who is his manager as
well as Gardner's. This morning Oscar
and Bernstein will depart for Chicago,
whence they will go to San Francisco
to get ready for the big fight with Nc
Govern, which is to take place April
30th, for a purse of $1,000. Oscar will
be accompanied by his wife.

sparring, wrestling and road work.
Joe is a crack wrestler and expressed
regret yesterday that he cannot fight
quite as we'll as he cal wrestle. Gard
ner and Bernstein will appear for two
weeks in a sensational melodrama en-
titled "The Angels of the Alley" doing
q boxing turn. They will appear under
the management of Harris & Sullivan.
In speaking of the coming contest
Gardeners condition, and pugilistic mat
tiers generally, Bernstein said to a Reg
lister man yesterday:
IF Oscar will take care of himself
and train faithfully he will have a good
chance of getting the decision over Nc
Govern In Frisco. He has his own
ideas about training, and it Is hard to
separate him from them, burt If he Will
stop taking occasional drinks and cut

McGovern and Gardner, and l know
that Oscar has the stronger punch OF
the two. l fought Terry 20 rounds to
a draw in 1898, and six months ago |
lost the decision to him in seven
rounds.
"This talk about Dave Sullivan fight
ing McGovern is all bosh. He couldn't
be pulled into the ring with him with a
team of horses, and / know it. Sulli-
a doesn't want any of McGovern's
game, and he is only too anxious to
take up any excuse to avoid a meet
ing"
Wheeling friends will agree with
Bernstein that Gardner should train
faithfully for this bout, if he ever did
in his life, as it is the greatest oppor-
tunity ne will ever have. 1t is foolish,
however, to endeavor to impress upon
Oscar the Importance of a favorable
decision to him. It means everything.
He will doubtless try to enter the ring
in such condition that if he is defeated
he will never be bothered by thinking
of what might have BEEN"
