last night at Muirkfrk, a station on
the Baltimore and Ohio railway about
three miles distant from Laurel, under the
auspices of the republican association of

Mr.. James P. Curley, republican candidate
for the state legislature. Mr.. Curiey paid
more than passing attention to the new

vantageous to the republican party in this
state. OF the large number of republican
voters affected by that law. a very large
time allowed them in which to aceustom
themselves to the requirements. and that as
a result there would be but few who would
not be able to cast their ballots correctly.
At the conclusion of his address Mr.. Cur
ley was warmly applauded.
Following Mr.. CurIey, Mr.. Geo. NJ. Bond,
one of the most enthusiastic younger mem
bers of the party In Laurel, spoke, review
ing the party's progress from its infancy
to the present time. Lieut.. j. r. Griffith
club of Laurel, Was the last speaker of the
evening. His remarks ELECTED much ap-
piause from the large audience.
The republican association of Muirkirk

eff OF those voters against whom the re-
cent law was aimed and the results, 1t Is
said, have been very gratifying to the asso-
citation. Every effort viii be made, It is
declared, to have every voter In that Vi

Christy MatthesvsOn to Play with

Christy Matthesvson to Play with
COmiskey's Team Next Season.
The Chronicle Of Chicago says: Christy
Matthewson, the pitching wonder Of 1901,
is going to play base bali In Chicago next
year He will wear White Stocking uni
form and pitch for Charley Comiskey's
team. According to the most authentic
reports, It was he whom Manager Griffith
went to New York to bag instead OF Davis,
and the only thing that stands between
Comiskey and Matthewson now is the ques-
tion of salary. Tom Hughes, the Orphan
twirler, will also be a White Stocking, and
then there are five others besides Hughes.
These are Thomas of Philadelphia, Warner
of New York, Dahlen of Brooklyn, who
will be used at short; Hamilton of Boston
and Long OF Boston, who will be played at
third base. The makeup of the Chicago
White Stockings for 1902 will be practically
as follows:.
Pitchers-Matthewson Griffith, Callahan,
Patterson and Hughes; catcfers, Warner,
Sullivan and Sugden; first base. Isbell; sec
ond base Mertes; third base, Long; short
stop. Dahlen; felders, Jones, Mcfarland
Hoy, Thomas and Hamilton.
1t was discovered yesterday that Conis-
key has options on the services of all these
men. 1t is also well known that he is nego-
tiating with other players. but those named
above in the probable lineup are the ones
he feels sure of getting.
