Conditions In Portugal.

Lisbon, Sept. IA republican form
OF government in Portugal will soon be
an accomplished fact, according to DR..
Costa, head OF the republican party III
Spain. Costa says that the election for
members of the Chamber OF Deputies
which has just ended in big gains iof
the republicans, will be the last election
held under the monarchy, although
the government party has majority
in the chamber.
The government is attempting to
placate the republicans by promising
strong anti-clerical policy, but the re
publicans, supported by large part Of
the population and powerful wing II
the army and navy, are demanding thu
adjustment of the dynasty. Costa
said he had reason to believe that King
Manuel. to save his throne in the even
of the expected opposition developing
will dissolve parliament, appoint
clerical government, and order new
election, which he will attempt to con
troll. Such a step, Costa says, will i'm
mediately result in revolution.

CHAMPIONSHIP BASEBALL SERIES

The first game Of the championship
series to be played Monday afternoon
ON the north Alfred street diamond be-
tween the Cardinal Athletic Club and
the Alexandria Athletic Club promises
to be great treat to the baseball iahS
OF this city as we'll as to those from
nearby places. Both teams have been
practicing daily for this great event,
and, judging from the good work that
has been done in practice during the
past week, it is now only necessary for
the umpire to call PLAY ball J" and
the public will see ball playing by
these young athletes that will surprise
them. IL is desired that all those who
attend may come early so as to avoid
confusion to the players by crossing
the diamond during the progress OF the
game. 1t is also desired that persons
will please keep the lines clear so that
the umpireS can plainly see Datted
balls, whether they be fair" or foul
ones. and thus prevent any delay to
the game by wrangling between the
umpire and the players concerning
such decisions. The friends OF both
teams are anxious TO see the best one
win, and, as they are composed OF true
sportsmen in every sense of the word
the losers are sure to meet defeat IN "a
graceful way and by doing so will open
a yay TO having championship series
yearly and they may win success next
