 After the return from Humboldt, and tho disbanding of the Greens, someone was heard -o say that "Andy' Hcrn' don said that Manager Taylor said that Bill Smith remarked that John Jones thought that the Journal Miner was convinced that Hudson was better catcher than Elliott; or something like that.
 Then the storm broke Last evening, to the great delight and special cdifi- cation of n number of witnesses, Man. ager Taylor and Captain Elliott began threshing matters out, with the result that the more they "thrcshcd' the worse things were mixed up, until in the end both men squared off with n declaration that they would throsh

 And thus matters stood when Joe Dillon. the omniprcscnt base ball fan. loomcd up on the horizon Elliott got Dillon's ear, and before the trick could be realized Manager Dillon, of the "Dillon's Dare Devils" ball team, had signed Elliott as his catcher and Taylor was left wondering how it all happened.
