THE AMATEURS
ONE TEAM HAS
 ALL THE BEST
City League May Change One of Their Rules-Results in Three
 Leagues.

The games at the Driving Park yesterday afternoon when the City league teams contested attracted the same quota of spectators and the Hamilton Parks and the Washing ton Hills were the winners. There is some talk among the managers of a change in the rules, whereby two of the teams at least may be strengthened by additions from the stronger hines. At the present time the motto seems to be to gobble everything in sight by some of the stronger teams, which will kill the interest in the games. The bouts yesterday result as follows:
 The game between the Hamilton Parks and St Josephs was a fast exhibition of baseball. both pitch CTS doing excellent work. Jack Mo ran, who was supposed to have joined the Bridgeport team, was back in his old position, outer field, with the Hamilton Parks. It Is evil dent that the St Joseph team has not struck its batting gait yet, as there are some real hitters among the bunch. The absence of George Shove. the St Joe's third baseman, was quite noticeable. The teams lined up as follows:
 Hamilton Parks-F. Conrad c, King p. Cleary 1b, Ghent 2b, Me- Coy 3b. Harvey ss, J. Moran cf, Lar son If. Ryan If. .,..
 St Josephs-white c, Finn D, R. Moran 1h, c. Conrad 2b, R. Conrad 3b. Laundria ss. Camp If, Martin of. Costello If. The score:
 Hamilton Parks 001000 '-4 St Josephs ..... 0 0 0 0 0 o o co
 Umpire, Bowes.
 The police department nine fur nished two candidates for the Wash ingron Hill team. James Madden and Martin Horan. The former played a good game. while the latter. who was taking Slavin's place. retired in favor of Charles Martin, who has explained the St Joseph team dur ing the past series. According to the rules of the City league, Martin forfeits his membership in the St Joseph team, due to his desertion of his old comrades, although his in- tentions were to play only an in- ming or two. At the beginning of the season it seemed to he the man. ager's desire to help each other strengthen their teams. but it seems that in a tight place there are some who forget about this understanding and are willing 10 work upon play CTS ignorance of the rules of the City league in order that one team may gain an advantage to the detri- ment of another.
 The features of the game were the stick work of Mulligan. who drove out two home runs. and the fielding of Edmonds Lawlor was hit in the head with a pitched ball in the eighth inning and had to be carried from the field. The lineup and score:

DISOWNED SON MAY
SHARE In WEALTH
William C. Rhinelander Likely to Get
Much More Than the viii
Stipulated.

Albany, N. u, Jan. 2S--The settle
ment OF the viii Of William Rhineland-
er, the New York millionaire, who
died Jan. 8. which contained eodieiI
allotting a yearly stipend Of $4,000 to
his SON, William G Rhiaelandar. OF this
city, whom he disowned many years ago,
has now taken rev turn and it IS
likely that, in spite Of an iniiexible stip-
nlation to the effect that this income
shall stop If the win Is contested. the
isowned son will get considerable
larger amount and also ample provision
for his wife and his two children by her
after his death
This increase may he accomplished by
playing upon the sympathies Of his
mother, who still has warm spot in
her heart for him.
Communications have been going back
and forth between Rhinelander and one
Of The executors. and these letters make
1t almost certain that concession win
lie made.

The first authentic record Of Christ

dough. This was a paste made IN tie
form OF baby and presented by the
bakers to their customers as a Christ
mas gift In ancient Rome on the

Yule dough had ITS origin In this Gus

time that mipce pie. which is compos-
ed Of fruits and spices grown In the
east, was a survival in memory OF the
offerings brought by the wise men to
Bethlehem when they came to worship
the infant Saviour. The pie IN later
years came to be a wonderful COM
