 Also the rear porch of the tenement must be removed. This will make a. space of some eight feet between the two structures
 The building commissioners have concluded that Spetrino's buildings do not come within the scope of that section of the state law, which re- quires tenement houses on the same lot to be at least 30 feet apart.
 The basis of this decision is that the structure in the rear is two family house. and that a house which contains two families only is not a tenement house within the statute.

WASHINGTON ONCE CHAMPION.
In 1867 Baseball at the Capital Was
Making History,

OF special interest to baseball fans
in buzzing over past records and
achievements at sundry radiator
league meeting is the following an
cient history compiled by the st. Louis
Globe-Democrat:
Amateur baseball rose to a very
proud position in Washington about
1867, chiefly through the efforts of
certain young Mr.. German, who turns
out, on investigation, to be none other
than the late Senator Arthur Pue
German. By his energy and guidance
the old Nationals, that were organ
ICED in 1859, rose to be justly styled
the champions of the SOUTH All
baseball was amateur, or was suppos-
ed to be, until the Cincinnati Red
Stockings appeared as the first team
Of regularly salaried players In 1869.
For that reason, and also because the
game had been greatly disturbed by
the civil war, the year 1857 may be
best taken as a starting point in an
account of the development of the
game in this city.
The leading teams of 1887 were the
Nationals, organized in 1859, and the
Olympics, who organized in 1865. Be
sides these there were many junior
teams. such as the Jeffersons, that
date from 1850; Capitals, Continentals,
Empires, Gymnastics, Interiors, Poto-
macs. Unions, Actives of Capitol Hill,
Creightons of the Second Ward, Pyth-
fans OF South Washington, Eagles of
the West End, Trinity of Georgetown
and Aloysius of the Northeast.
Rooters Were Too Noisy.
In the earliest days the great bat
tlefeld for opposing teams was the
White Lot, where, for several years
through the indulgence of the presi-
dent, spectators often crowded to see
q match game. And this might have
gone on for many years longer but for
the vociferous demonstrations of the
rooters at a famous game between
the Actives and the Eagles in 1857,
when the din of cowbe1ls so exasperat-
ed Col. William G. Moore, secretary
of President Andrew johnson, that

end OF the season. The ground down
there went by the name of the Union
grounds; but early in 1857 the Ma

big games were played.
It was in 1867, too, that the Ma

Other Baseball News and An
cient History.

The state charter for the Topeka
Baseball association has been taken out
and the first regular meeting will be
held the fore part of next week. At
that meeting permanent officers will be
elected or rather Chester Woodward
viii be officially named president and
Fred Moore, manager. A vice president
and secretary treasurer, who have not
yet been suggested will be chosen.
Progress in the development of the
new association has been rapid. Be
ginning with a ready capital OF $4,000
the franchise owners have begun push
ing a close organization OF the stock
holders and sending out feeiers for
new players. Almost daily communion
is being held by Woodward, Moore
and H. A. Auerbach, who also is most
concerned in the success Of the To-
peka club.
While the mail and telegraph are be-
ing used continually in the search for
desirable team timber, the club is not
devoid of good players at the present
time. The lineup SO far as it goes is
q very fair one.
In the pitching stam there are now
four twirlers who have the confidence
of Moore and Woodward. These are
Fugates Alderman, McGrath and Ovitz.
Fugate, whose showing has been spas
medical. is claimed to be the best south
paw IN the league but a victim OF
bonehead catchers who have curved
him to death. Alderman is another
south slider with the sights adjusted to
the things he had in Topeka when the
old franchise was held in the Western
Association. McGrath is the recent
1000 bet from Lincoln. Barney lives
at Carbonate and likes to be near
home. Ovitz is accounted for by Moore
as college acquisition from Illinois I'M
iversity. He now is studying medicine
in Chicago. Besides these men. Moore
says he has two more good ones on the
line.
For backstop, Butch Kerns, who has
proved his ability, is the only man
held, or in view, at the present time
Around the circle, Moore, for second
and Quinlan for short, as announced
before, are the only two places taken.
First and third will cause much worry
before spring. In the outfield one more
man is needed. Thomson and Riley are
reserved by the management and likely
will be the men on the job. =
