the BASEBALL LEAGUE
Arranging for Opening of SeasOn-Uni-
forms for Players Ordered. Etc.

A well attended and enthusiastic
mass-meeting of the Sunday School
League was held Monday night at ST.
Georges parish house. President J d.
Garrett King presided. Mr. A. b. Nc
Pherson. secretary.
The Rules Committee, Mr.. +. w
Carter, chairman, made its report as TO
the rules governing the eligibility of
players and other necessary rules for
the perfectfhg of the organization.
which were adopted, with some amend
ments, after discussion. These rules
will be published in full later.
The matter of arranging schedule was
left with the Executive Committee and
the season will probably begin June
and run through until Sept. l. This
meeting has put the matter in definite
shape and uniforms will be ordered at
once, so that when the opening game is
played the four teams will be fitted out
in regulation form.
The success of the league seems as
sUred. as the teams are well balanced
and good material is TO be had by each
organization. Players will be bona fide
members of the four Sunday Schools,
and the league will furnish a season of
clean sport which will doubtless be ap-
proved by the support of the commu-
nifty.
Further announcements as to the
rules, schedules, etc, will appear in
this paper.

Mr. K. A. kishpaugh reported that
in accordance with instructions from
the association. the advertising com
mittee had printed handbills of each of
the two excursions from down the
Rappahannock river TO Fredericksburg,
one on May 2,ird and the other on June

Mr.. Crismond. of Transportation Com
mittee, spoke of the need of excursions
on the railroads from way stations to
fredericksburg or for some other means
of inducing growing trade from the
surrounding sections. The subject was
discussed by Messrs. Hirsh. kispaugh
and X. l.. Biscoe. The latter referred
TO the inconsistency of railroad freight
rates on long and short hauls, citing
cases in which freight bills were smaller
on the same freight for long distance
than for a shorter one.
DR.. King read a telegram which he
had received from the governor of
Louisiana. requesting him as the sec

was taken.

TRADE DOLLAR CAUSED ARREST

Weddings Store Sent on 20 Grand
Jury.
Scion Richardson. a negro boy. about
% years old. who has been caught
stealing six times previously. convicted
each time for larceny and confined in
Jail and sent to reform school. was ar
rested Monday by order Of Chief Rob
insOn. suspected of entering A. Wood
ing's store Saturday night. and lodged
in jail.
The footprints back Of Weddings
store were measured and corresponded
TO Richardson's shoe. Among the
things taken from Wooding store was a
trade dollar and this led 10 Richardson
conviction.
On Tuesday Robt. w. Harris, the
merchant ON Commerce street, phoned
Sergeant Chichester that a trade dollar
had been spent at his store by big
Oscar Williams, who works at Cool
Spring Ice Plant. Sergeant Chiches-
ter went after Williams, who stated he
had purchased the trade dollar from
Richardson early Sunday morning.
Richardson was brought before JUS
tice Dannehl Wednesday and denied the
charge. The evidence was so conclu-
sive that Richardson was sent on to
grand jury and again lodged in Jail.
There is a coincidence in connection
with the robbery. When Richardson
concealed himself in Myer & Brulle's
warehouse. several years ago. he took
Canadian quarter.
He spent the quarter at A. Weddings
store and this led to his arrest and
sentence to the reform school for three
years. In this case the trade dollar
taken from Mr.. Wooding also caused
his being sent on to grand jury.
