year 1863.

n of the seven hills Of ancient Rome
where Augustus Caesar had his pal
ace. This state lay around the juno.
ton of the Neckar and Rhine rivers,
n Of the most fertile regions of
Germany. Its capital was Heidel-
berg. This city was the seat of the
far-fained University of Heidelberg
n of the greatest Institutions Of
its day.
''The Prince Of the p%alatinate was
called e%lector. The Office of the Ger
man Emperor was an electoral office.
The princes of seven different states
had the right TO vote as to who
should be Emperor. AT the head Of
all these seven princes stood the
Prince OF the Palatinate one Of the
seven electors whose duty 1t was to
act as ruler OF the Empire in ease OF
the death of the Emperor until his
successor should be chosen.
THE first protestant elector of the
Palatinate was Frederick III. He

Out of these elements Eleetor Freder-

GOOD COMBINATION.

The Louisville baseball public is
assured in advance of a good ball
team representing the city this year,
as the combination of Ohio Wathen
as business manager and Jack Hay
den as playing manager is a guar
antee of a successful team. Every
one familiar with the playing situa-
ton knows that Jack Hayden worked
wonders with last years poor
material and certainly deserved an
other fair trial. Mr.. Wathen's
business judgment and liberality In
dealing with the public will prove an
incentive in drawing patronage,
while those who know him per-
sonally know that his knowledge OF
a ball players ability is greater than
a great many of the so-called wise
leaders here who have been travelling
on their reputation, which is only a
newspaper one at that.
