Cleveland throughout the nine innings.
while Vasbinder. who relieved Annie

New Candidates.

The District Building team is a new de-
parture. The players made application to
enter She league and after running down
the list gotten together. decided that they
could play good enough to be in the
league. 1t is up to the Commissioners
proteses 10 show what they can do next
Monday when they open the league with
tho Marines.
The Government Printing Office team
was also well up with the bunch at the
conclusion Of the season, receiving third
best place by a good margin. 4 number

This season. and it will be a tough prop
ostion for any of the others to down.
The Interior Department team was a
shiity aggregation last year also. but for
Jack of practice they came out near the
little end of the horn.
Although the Treasury Department was
represented last year. the team this sea-
son viii not be composed of the same
players, as the manager has greater
number OF men to select from. The In
ternal Revenue Office applied for a place
in the league and got IL. Shortly after
the place was granted the manager gave
the franchise TO the Treasury Depa rtment
with the understanding that some of the
players were to be selected from the In
tcrnal Revenue Office.
The navy yard and Marine Corps teams
are new feathers in the hat. They are
unknown quantities at present, but from
the reports OF the past seasons it appears
that they have played ball TO great
extent. but not in league.
They can show what they are made OF
the first three days of the season. as they
both have games scheduled for the first
and third days.

DEPARTMENT. LEAGUE
READY FOR BUSINESS
Its Baseball Season Opens
Next Monday, May S.
EIGHT CLUBS IN THE RACE
Prospects Brighter This Year Than Ever
Before-0id Rational Grounds Secured
Games to Be Played Every Day
Schedule of Games Given Out.

The Departmental League, which Will
various Government buildings. will open
in full blast on Monday, May .. At 4;so
/ o'clock that afternoon the umpire will
| say PLAY ball. and start the Government
! clerks in the race for their baseball pen
nant.
The most successful amateur league
ever organized in any city in this coun-
try was the Departmental League last
year. There were eight strong teams IN
the league. and many hard-fought and
interesting game was witnessed By the
hundreds of clerks who trudged out to
National Park.
The prospects are brighter for better
teams have been entered. The season
ends the latter part of September.
Mr.. Lamar President.
MIR. l.. Q. C. Lamar. manager of the
strong Interior team, who was president
of the league, was unanimously elected to
hold that position for another season, as
the affairs of the league were managed in
most commendable AMI admirable way
under his direction last year. He has
been instructed to leave no stone unturn-
cd in order to make this a better season
than last year. Numerous applications
we're fled for places in the league. but
after discussing the matter. the presi-
dent and the hoard of managers decided
to have only eight teams, with n game
every day.
The president has been in communica-
ton with President Nick Young, of the
.atioral League. and has completed ne
,otiations for the use of the National
Park. at the head OF Seventh Street. This
park was used last year, and served the
clerks. The president also has in
strIcticns and the consent of Nick Young
10 make numerous repairs at the park.
At recent meeting of the league a
schedule was arranged for game every
day. instead of three times week. as
was the custom last year. The official
decided that as long as there are more
teams in the league more games must be
played in order to give every one fair
show.
The contract for repairing the grand
stand was awarded to a local contractor.
Ali Clubs Strong. .
All OF the teams are exceptionally
strong.
The following eight will make up the
league;
Census Office, Bureau OF Engraving and
Printing, District Building. Government
Printing Office. Interior Department.
Treasury Department, Navy Yard, and
United States Marine Corps.
The Census aggregation won the pea
nant with hands down last year. having
but two defeats chalked up to them dur
ing the entire season. II is doubtful
whether the team will have such n lead
pipe cinch on the flag this year, both be-
cause the other teamE are stronger and
there are more to compete with.
The Bureau team was the second best
last year. ard en- general principles it
was considered stronger than the Census
Office team, although the club did not
bear the statement cut.
The two bad drubbings that the pennant
winners got were both administered by
the copper plate artists. and IL more
games had been played between the teams
the standing would undoubtedly have been
different.

Bob Emslie says the umpire is handi-
capped in not being able to fine loud
mouihed players. and he predicts that
the league will soon return to the finiug
system. Emslie wisely says that il is
necessary to break up the game to send a
dozenkicking players TO the bench. while
a fine would shut them up In nine eases
out of ten.

The Columbia Stars met and defeated
the Lafayettes in close and exciting
game Saturday afternoon. The score was

test was the box work of Sleeps, who

and the Iowa Stars both fell victims to
the American Stars on Sunday. The first
named team could not hit "Oney" Sulli-
van in the morning game. and consequent
ly lost by n score of II to 4. The batting
of the winners, coupled with the fine all
round field work. was too hard combina-
ton for The Fort Myer aggregation.
In the second game the lowas refused
to accept easy fielding chances and their
string of seven errors went long ways
to giving the Americans victory by the

Some time ago President Robson. of the

coo that the Pirates would not land the
National League bunting this year. The
Pittsburg contingent seems to have call
ed 'Robby's" bluff from the following
statement recently made by Manager
Clarke:
Although they have raised $4,000 to
take up Mr.. Robison's proposition to
wager that sum that they will not win
the pennant this season. the Pittsburg
players have no idea that they will ever
be called upon to make good their guar
antee. We have the money ready to post
at any time the st. Louis gentleman puts
IN his cash. but we have suspicion that
when he does come up with his stakes
it will be in stage morey. We are not
claiming the pennant. but are willing to
bet $40 goo that we will win it,

A certain young man of this place
went hunting with Mike Long and
Lee Oldham and they are resp0nsi-
BILE for the statement that the young
man got lost in 500 yards of Pond
river and after wandering around
for an hour shouting at intervals OF
three minutes he climbed tree to
see IL he could find the river, tearing
his clothes and part of his flesh from
his arms. Failing to find the river
he advanced further in the bottom
and found three buzzards sitting on
a dead tree. He thought they were
wild turkeys and proceeded to pump
them full of lead. Mike and Lee,
hearing the continuous shooting,
came to him in time to explain that
that peculiar breed of turkeys was
not good for food and took him home
before he had time to kill Jersey
calf which he took for red deer.

IA Prisoner of Paris" as rendered
by the Lester Walter Stock Com
pany Monday night, was good. The
actors performed their parts with
spirit and zest. The play will COM
pare favorably with most any other
that have trod the boards of Temple

and unusually good. The honse was
well filed and if the plays following

A woman who married man who
claimed to have German estates that
proved a myth has secured divorce
Quite right. 1t is evident it was not
the man she was marrying, but the
estates, and since they do not exist
the marriage is void. The only won-
der is that any divorce was legally
necessary from a man who counted
for so little in the marriage.
