"A Historic Ball.
Because Of the disngreements follow
ing the series Of 1855 between the
Browns and Chicago White Sox, which
the Browns claimed. although the sew
enth game was declared tie, the Sc
ries of 1886, won by the Browns, was
for the entire gate receipts. Commy
still has in his office at White Sox park

the series,

salary Of $4,000 year P. A. Auten, a
Chicago business man, now living in
Pasadena, Cal; John Addison, an archi
tect,- who spends much Of his time in
London, and Mr.. Widenfeier, living
IN Michigan, were the principal back,
eTs. Ihe players movement failed and
all players were ordered to return to
the clubs which they deserted. so
Comiskey returned to the Browns in
1891.
Hence he adopted the Nickname
White Sox, from tho old team which he
had beaten at st, Louis, and White Sox
il has been ever since. Another coinci-
dence is. that the present White sox
