a large number of citizens gathered
at City hall Square, Saturday morn
ing and listened to two of the coun-
trys prominent men make two very
appreciative and interesting speeches,
favoring Hon. John A. Peters as the
man from the Bird District, to occupy
seat in Congress.
The first introduced was Hon. A. p.
Gardner of Massachusetts, who talked
for about 80 minutes. giving an adj
dress, in an exceedingly able way,
which sank deep into the minds of
his listeners. He was followed by
| former Lieut.. Governor Kelly OF
Michigan, who likewise captiNated the
entire crowd by his frank, convincing
manner of speech. Both men centered
their remarks on the subject. so prom
inent in this campaign, that of the
tariff revision occasionally introduce
, ing other interesting topics that sub
stantiate many of the planks of
Peters platform.
This concluded the series of politl-
cal rallies held in connection with
this campaign in this city.

Bill has brooded over that break

In fact, Bill was quite mad that
night just a year ago-so irate, in
fact. that none of his fellow play
ers dared to "hoorah'' him (Texas
for joshing). Bill was in a very
dangerous mood, and being about
as strong and big as grizzly bear,
all hands steered clear of him. Bill
was the last man to leave the. ring

he is in worse shape as manager

TOHN M'GRAW complains in a

nature that newspaper criticism
starts many ball players into the
minors and drives some of them out
of business. This is undoubtedly
true, and a blessed good thing for
the game. Also. when you con-

newspapers nobody would know
whether there were any good play

might be seen or anything about it
you get the angle that newspa

In the new men there seems to

most prominent are Wilmington
