HAL CHASE TO
LEAVE PESTHOUSE;
NOT MARKED MUCH
Especial to the Evening start

AUGUSTA, Ca, April 23.-Hal Chase
is n of the happiest baseball players
in the country today, for he is prepar-
Ing to leave the pesthouse here, where
he has been confined with smallpox
for several weeks. The great first
baseman will shake the lust of the
Southern section tomorrow and will
be met at the depot by S~tallings, the
players, fans and scores of friends who
just think the Westerner is the real
thing.
When Stallings received the good
news he almost put his toes through
a new pair of shoes.
While 1t may be a couple of weeks
before Chase is able to get back in
the game. it is known that he Is anx-
ious to dig right in. Pitcher McCon-
nell, who is covering the bag at pres
ent, is going some and getting his
hits regularly, but Stallings would like
to see Mac on the mound. The for
mer Buffalo player has an ugly cross
fire ball which will puzzle the big
leaguers. Chase's wife, who is here,
will accompany him to the metropolis.
The peer of f~irst-sackers Is not marked,
except a few places OIL the body.
While in the pesthouse he amused
himself watching the South Atlantic
League games, whose grounds are
nearby. At night he received the
baseball scores from the newspapers.
During the past several days he
warmed up by tossing the ball with
one of the physicians.

POLICE RA|DEO
BROOKLYN CLUB

Led by Police Inspector Sweeney, a
score of policemen swooped down or
the Carlyle Athletic Club. of Brooklyn,
last night, In spite of an Injunction
granted by Supreme Court Justice Will
lam ]. Carr, and after beating many of
the 800 members with clubs and fist,
placed twelve under arrest.
Charles Gracott, who acted as referee
in n of the fights, was hit on the head
with a nightstick and carried out un>
conscious.
Three detectives, who are not men,
bers, gained admission to the club.
After witnessing four bouts they went
to the door and sounded a whistle,
which brought the inspector and his
men to the scene.
The fighters, ticket-sellers and spec
tators were quickly and roughly bun
died into the patrol wagon. All were
charged with aiding and abetting a
prize fight.
One of the prisoners was represented
by counsel today and said that he
would have the case carried to the up>
per court and ascertain why the police
ignored the restraining order.
The clubhouse is located at Liberty
avenue and Vermont street. 1t is the
second club raided by Sweeney recently.
A few nights ago he raided the Swed-
ish-American Athletic Club.

The Newark City Baseball League
will meet tonight at the clubhouse of
the Ironside A. c., Eighteenth avenue
and South Thirteenth street. While
ten teams were nominated at the meet
ing Monday night and two other appli-
cations We're laid over, 1t is understood
that the league will not consist of more
than eight clubs, n probably but six.
The teams which were in the organi-
zation last year and those who went
to an expense to improve their grounds
are anxious to play at home as often
as possible. The teams who will sure
ly start in the league are the Ironsides,
National Turner's, st. eBnedicts, Bay
View Wheelmen. Other strong posibili-
ties are the Lincolns, Vailsburg A. c.,
Tiger A.. G.. and Broad A. C.

YVES AND SHRUBB
FINISHED THEIR
TRAINING STUNTS

Henri st. Yves and Alfred Shrubb
are both keyed up to top notch for the
fifteen-mile match race. which they will
run al American League Park tomor-
row night. The last hard work of the
little Englishman and Frenchman was
done on Wednesday and yesterday each
man contented himself with a slow jog,
Shrubb going seven miles and st. Yves
five.
The lighting arrangements that will
the used for the race were again tried
out last night and quite a crowd of
baseball promoters and managers of
teams were present. There has been
so much talk of night baseball with
this system of lighting that the man
ayers of nearly every baseball park in
the country are becoming interested in
the possibilities of such a scheme.
whether the light will be suitable for
baseball remains to be seen. but it GER
tainly answers the purpose in every
way for a running race, such as will be
run tomorrow night.
Immediately after the game tomorrow
afternoon sparrow Robertson and his
associates and an official surveyor will
lay out the grass course over which
Shrubb and st. YES will race. This
track will be six laps to the mile, which
was the distance of the course laid out
at the Polo Grounds for the Marathon
Derby. The start and finish OF the
race will be on the north side of the
grounds. The gates are to be open at
Z O'Clock; the fve-mile scratch race
will be put on at $3.50 and the main
event promptly at 9:15.

Brooklyn was humbled by the Giants
in the opening game at Brooklyn yes
terday. For seven innings Lunley's
men held the lead and things looked
gloomy for the Giants, but in that
round the latter scored four, which
gave them the game.
KAISER" Wilhelm, who worked in the
big show at the Polo Grounds last week,
was again on the mound, but McGraw's
players took to him kindly. Cincinnati
managed to win from Pittsburg. Z to 4.
and strengthened its hold on first place.
Although St. Louis drove Overall out
of the box, "Three-Fingered' Brown
finished the game and the Cubs got to
Sallee in the eighth and clinched the
game.
Covaleski was too much for Boston
and Murray's men got away with an
other win. The Doves were given a
coat of whitewash, the score being 4
to 0. 1t was the opening game at Phila-
delphia and 10, 900 fans saw 6le battle.

Baseball enthusiasts from far and
near are complimenting the STARS for
the interest and space being devoted to
the national game. Before he season
was under way a contest was begun,
which brought forth answers from all
parts of the State, from fans young
and old. and amateur, semi-professional
and professional baseball players. The
contest called for the fans to ascertain
what was the greatest number of hits
and bases that could be made in a
half inning"
1t took a week to look over the an
swers carefully, most of which were
