BAHLE OF BOODLE
The Baseball Fight Depends
Largely en Cash.
W. I. HAKIMS' VIEW OF THE CASE
Attendance Figures Shew the nfavor nfaver
bis Influence of Conflicting" Dates.
Interest In the Ouni Net Decreasing.
A Unique Crank and Uli Strang Bet.
There can be no doubt that the present
tenflict of dates between the two big
league will cause financial disaster te a
majority of the clubs, and it begins te leek
as If the men who would stand the drain
the longest would win. I hare held from
the first, Indeed, before the conflict began,
that the question of sympathy for one
league or the ether would net count for
much after the first hurrah was ever. Un
doubtedly the masses are with the Players',
but, as I have before contended, the sym
pathy of the masses is net of very great
value te the Players' lcague in dollars and
cents, because the laboring men as a rule
have mera heart than meney,andnre really
net the peeple who support baseball, be
cause they cannot afford te de It On holi
days tbey will turn out In force, but they
cannot naturally bu every day patrons. On
the ether hand, the steady patrons who can
afford the luxury of high priced baseball
will go where the best ball Is played, and If
the games of the two leagues are pretty
evenly metched In playing skill, as they
have been, the attendance Is pretty apt te
be divided. The figures for the games
played the week ending May 17, net In
cluding Saturday, go te prove that this
statement is net exaggerated. The figures
in brackets refer te the number of games:

The attendance at Bosten. New Yerk,
Philadelphia and Brooklyn en Saturday
was largely In favor of the Players' league,
but us Saturday In nil of these cities Is
largely in the nature of n holiday the fig
ures are uet representative of the steady
baseball clientele. The steady gains made
by the League have made the Brotherhood
managers thoughtful, and I am told en
pretty geed authority that they would be
euly tee glad te patch up a truce and
chauge their schedules wcre it uet for the
fear that they would lese prestige among
their mere enthusiastic supporters should
they show any signs of weakening. There
Is no doubt, however, that they will make
some chuuges In their circuit, if net befere
the season is ever, certainly befere start
ing in en another campaign.
It was publicly stated last week that the
Lcague had inude a preposition te the
Brotherhood that if they would change
the names of their clubs the league would
agree te change of dates in most of the
cities during the second half of the season.
I was told by a gentleman, whose name I
nm net at liberty te glve, who is high in
the councils of the Players' league officials,
although net one of them, that he knew
positively that such a scheme had Indi
rectly Iwn advanced by the Nutlenul league
malingers. The League people, however,
deny tliij story In tete. One of them told
me that he thought it would be a wise plan
for the Players' lcague te change the names
of their clubs, as he believed such a course
would benefit the gauie by increasing the
aggregate attendance, but that the Na
tional league had made no proiiesttious te
their opponents and would make none.
There is no doubt that the League men
would be pleased te see such a meve, for it
would benefit them mero than their oppo
nents. The Players' league is net likely te
take a step that would give their rivals any
nd vantage.
There has been n tendency en the part of
some people, mero notably league men, te
attribute the falling oft" in attendance at
the games as an indication that our great
national sport is losing ground. This is an
erroneous idea. It Is very likely that the
public interest is net se fierce as it was
when the presence of ene team in n city
united nil the enthusiasts In shouting for
that one team and inpiring strong local
pride In tlielr achievements, but I de net
believe that the general interest is one whit
less than in lbSJ. It is true that the attend
ance figures last week were small, but this
was due solely te the bad weather, which
reduced the contest in most of the cities
te one-half of theso scheduled and greatly
handicapped theattendanceat these played.
Frem this out, until well into September,
I expect te note that the aggregate attend
ance at the games Is lurger than ever befere
known In the annuls of the sport. One
thing is certain, this talk of "decrease in
interest" is net likely te Increase and It has
no real foundation in fact.
The visit of the Chicago Players' lcague
team te the east has created n feeling of
anxiety iu the breast of that cruzy baseball
enthusiast, Ed ward Everett Bell. This indi
vidual has been made almost a national
character by his peculiar eccentricities en
every ball ground he visits. He is net n
crank of the Digby Bell, Maurice Harry Harry
mere, De Wolf Hepper or "Oeneral" Dix-
ell order. They are immensely popular
because there is nothing offensive or eccen
tric in their makeup, unless it be Dlxwell's
harmless "Hi, hi," which has te n certain
extent made him famous. Edward Everett
Bell Is different, lie is unique, lie only
talks about two things. One Is the safes
lie sells, and the ether baseball. He has
three fads. One Is long hair, the second a
blind devotion te the Chicago Brotherhood
team, and the ether a plug hat.
Bell's plug hat uud whiskers, long ma no
and glows are a makeup that causes him
ceaseless anguish when the small boys get
tight of him crossing the "bleacherics" at
the ball parks. Twe of Bell's fads, the
Chicago team and his long mane, are in
danger, hence his anxiety. In an evil mo
ment Bell wagered his long hair against
Nick Eugel'sgoatce that Cemlskey's men
would win the Players' league penniiU
The way the Brooklyn team hustled Bell's
pets has really taken his nppetlte away.
Mr. Engel, who is also a crank of national
repute, hiis twitted Bell se much about the
defeats of Chicago that the long haired
crank has lest weight at the rate of a
pound a day. Engel swears he will have
that mane, and the general belief among
Bell's friends is that unless Cemlskey's
braves take a tremendous brace the man
of hair, hat and tengue will seen be a mere
shadow.
It leeks new te n man up a tree that the
Bosten, Brooklyn and Chicago teams of
the Plajcrs' league are the only teams who
are In it fur the pennant of their organi
zation, with the Hostensaflrst choice. But
basejmll iscry peculiar, and in another
month these strong teams may develop
weaknesses that will pull them down te a
level with the rest of their opponents.
In the National league there does net ab
present appear te Ih much choice. The
Fhillics, Chicago and Cincinnati have
the call, but the ether teams all appear te be
in it. It will take a ceuple of weeks' con
tests between the western and eastern
teams te show hew much license the pres
ent leaders have te btay in front. My
cheice is the New Yerk team, although
they have net yet shown strong winning
gait. But they are as likely te get there as
any of the ethers. V I. lUltlUS.
YACHTING NOTES.
At least half of the yachts In American
waters are steam. Fifteen years age this
wasn't even thought of.
The new deed of gift of the America'i
rup," which obliges the challenging party
te give a notice of ten months, has been
very severely criticised en the ether side.
It w1111h3 u stumbllug block and a subject
for controversy for some time te come, and
will no doubt be a great bar te another In
ternational yacht race.
There are 120 ergantzad yacht clubs In
the United Ptutcs at the present time, hav

MEN WHO RUN. v
Private advices from New Zealand bring
Information that en account of a very
strong wind blowing behind the runners
In the 100 yard and hurdle races at the
championship games last winter, the per
formances will net go en record. The rec
ords 'caused authorities In America te
doubt their fairness, but the explanation
received lately makes the matter plain.
C. II. Sherrlll, et Yale college, the Inter
collegiate champion sprinter, makes the
ninth amateur who has covered 100 yards
in 10 seconds. He did this performance at
the recent spring games of his college.
He ran last year se msny times in 10 1-5
seconds that authorities said it was simply
a question et a geed track and day when
he would de even time.
The recent injury te Jehn Owen, Jr., of
the Detroit Athletie club, will retire him
from games for some time, but these who
are interested In the amateur champion
sprinter will be glad te learn that he Is net
seriously hurt. Severe abrasions and flesh
wounds are all that he received by his fall.
The latest story about Harry Bethune,
the professional sprinter, who with II. M.
Jehnsen holds the best record, 94-5 seconds
for running 100 yards, is that he has been
left a tortnne by his undo In Scotland.
The probabilities are that it this flyer Is
going abroad it Is noVfertbo purpose of In
quiring into an estate, butforseme scheme
connected with feet racing.

HENRY W. GRADY'3 NOVEL.
Be Had Its First Chapter. Here Outllued,
Written Win lie Died.
Special Correspondence
New Yerk, May 82. Henry W.
Grady's literary fame resta upon his
newspaper work. His journalistie
"knack" and tact were alike wonderful.
His instinct of timeliness and his sympa
thetic intuition enabled him te seize
upon every pepulnr topic "living as it
rose." Ills picturesque, colorful style
gave a grace te every hubject.
"Why don't you write a novel?" was a
question he wns often asked.
"I have ene en the stocks," he would
answer, laughing. ' 'Let me have n little
bit of leisure a June month in the coun
try, thirty winter evenings by my nln
fireside and you'll sce a novel that will
astonish you."
The month of leisure seemed never te
ceme te him. The novel never get off
"the stocks." Once he sketched the out
line of it for me. Dickens was Mr.
Grady's first and Inst love, and his em
bryo novel wns Dickcnsesque in plot and
style, with n Droedish mystery breeding
ever it te the end.
The opening chapter showed a man a
"solitary horseman" traveling li lonely
read through the night nud storm. He
crossed a rearing river, and saw by a
flash of lightning u large heuse, set 11 lit
teo back from the read, with wind blown
trees about it. The blinds of the heuse
wcre colored; no light issued from it, but
suddenly, ns the traveler looked, there
came n wilder gust of wind, the shutters
of ene of the windows was blown vio
lently back, and the traveler hud a
glimpse of the lighted interier.
That one gllmpse was full of horror.
It allowed the climax of a tragedy. A
man stabbed te death by another man;
two women standing near, ene still nnd
stem, the ether stretching her arms im
ploringly nnd sending forth a shriek that
sounded nbove the storm.
In another half minute the blind was
blown back te its place nnd nil wus dark
again. Befere the stunned trnveler could
recover himself a fierce flash and peal of
thunder had startled his horse. It took
a few minutes te quiet him, then the
horseman dismounted, opened the great
gnte of the yard and hurried te the
house. His knock en the deer was an
swered almost nt ence by a black surv
nnt, who showed him into a room the
very room in which he had just seen a
bloody murder committed. He looked
around in nmnzement. Ne sign of mur
der or violence was here. Ne bleed, no
body; no rage or terror in the faces that
turned upon him. He saw a coy room,
a cheerful fire, a family group; a young
woman nt the piano; a young man stand
ing beside her; a beautiful young mother
rocking her child in her arms; the father
reading in his armchair clese by.
All turned and looked at the intruder
in iiolite surprise. Ile stammered out
his story, nnd wns stared at suspiciously,
as if he was an ex-aped lunatic. It was
indignantly denied that anything tragic
had taken place. He must have n brain
fover or be subject te horrible illusions.
He was made almost te doubt his oyes
and te Njwlogize for his intrusion. He
was graciously asked te shelter himself
from the storm; and he staid, and fell
under the fcpell of ene of the licautiful
women, nnd but there ended this in
itial chapter of n story that, liku its
author's brilliant life, breke elt abruptly,
leaving its sequel te be guessed.

Malcolm W. Ferd Writes of J.
B. Connelly, of Bosten.
HIS GREAT HOP, SKIP AND JUMP.
Its Made 44 Feet 10 Inches en Aril
flrlal O round nnd It Draught Him the
Championship His Ilest Records at
Other Kvents.
J. B. Connelly, who Is shown by the
accompanying illustration. Is a resident of
Bosten, nnd although he has competed in
athletics but a comparatively short time
is already very prominent as an all-round
amateur jumper. Howenthochamplonshlp
en April 13 for the running hop, step and
jump, clearing 41 feet 10 Inches, and nom
inally beating the best amateur record of
44 feet 1J Inches, The ground en which
no did this performance In-lng of an artificial
nature prevents Connelly's performance
from actually supplanting the old record
made out of doers en grass; but he dis
tanced about a dozen competitors when he
wen the event, and he Is without doubt the
bestnmatcur In Iho United States nt this
event.
He is 51 years old, 5 feet G Inches high,
and weighs 143 pounds In jumping costume.
He has competed In llfty-llve different
events, all of which were scratch, and he
lias finished first twenty-two times, second
eighteen times, third tvielve times, nnd
several times unplaced.
Ills first competition was a running high
Jump with weights at Oak Island, Bosten,
May 30, 1887, in which he wen second place
ith 5 feet 7H inches. Since then he has
made the following records, nil of which
are se high class that they speak for them
selves: Standing bread Jump without
weights, 10 fecf, with weights, 13 fcctO
Inches; three standing bread jumps with
out weights, 33 feet; with weights, 83 feet;
standing high jump without weights, 4 fret
8 inches; with weights, 5 feet 3 inches; run
ning high jump without weights, 5fcct0)
Inches; with weights, fi fret 8 Inches; run
ning bread jump without weights, 10 feet
3 inches; running hop, step and jump, out
of doers, 43 feet II Jf Inches; Indoors, 44 feet
10 inches. Most of these performances
wcre made en peer ground, nnd indiffer
ent trials under favorable conditions Con Con
eolly has beaten nil et these figures.
J. 11. COXKOLI.Y.
The only handicap competition he has en
gaged in was the running high jump at the
big games et the Bosten Athletic associa
tion lust February, in which he received 1J4
inches. The slippery fleer prevented his
clearing ever 5 feet 4 Inches and he was un
placed. In practice he has tried throwing
weights, but is nothing in this branch of
athletics compared te his ability in jump
ing. He is n member of the Trimeunt Ath
letic club and practices en ene of the famous
public outdoor gymnasiums owned by his
native city.
His style at the running hop, step and
jump is unusually fine, and iu giving the
step, which is where most athletes aie
weak, he shows wonderful ability in recov
ering and going en just as though there
wcre no jar In landing from the hop which
takes place Just previous te the step. His
figurps for the three distinct portlensof his
faverite game are about os follews: Hep, 10
feet; step, 13 feet, and jump, 15 feet. Theso
who are familiar with this gnme can seu
what flue divisions these nre, nud without
seeing him perform they can get a capital
idea of hew he accomplishes such geed rec
ords at this particular event. Ile confi
dently expects during the warm months te
place the best America!) amateur record te
his credit, and as he has already ceme se
near it there is little likelihood that he will
fail iu ids attempt.

A SENSIBLE HEIRESS.
6he lias Chnsen nil American Gentleman
for Her Husband.
MISS JULI.V BCIIUEIMIR.
News comes fiein ever the water tliat
is in its way a relief and a novelty. An
American heiress or rauincss beauty ti
te wed, bnt she lias net chosen for het
husband any of the broken down prince
lings or alleged counts who desired hct
hand that they might Bqnander her ter tor ter
tene, Bhe has elected instead te bestow
herself npen an American gentleman.
Miss Julia BehrclneT, the lady referred
te, is the daughter of a New Yerk mer
chant and a niece en her mother's side
of William Cullen Bryant. She has
spent much of her life abroad, but last
season reigned as a belle in the society
circles of Getham. Her beauty is of the
statnesqne and queenly order, and hei
gowns, always peculiarly stylish in cut'
and artistic in coloring, are made par
ticularly with refcrence te the demands
of tier figure, for she is nearly six feet
tall.
It was while in New Yerk that Miss
Schrelncr met the gcntleman who is te
becoine her husband. His name is Fred
erick D. Thompson, and he is well known
as a person of large wealth and wide lit
erary attainments. He is at present in
Paris, having recently finished a tour of
northern Africa.
HANDSOME LACE WRAPS.
THEY WERE NEVER MORE BECOM
INGLY MADE THAN NOW.
Olive Harper Tells About the Ladles
"Who Wear Them anit These Who De
Net A Few Went About the Most
Stjllih Outfits for Itrldei.
(Special Correspondence. 1
New Yehk, May 22. Warm weather
is new upon us, and while for warmth
wraps ere required there is always m
contingent of ladies who de net feel
dressed without seme kind of a wrap,
and for them the lace wraps are de
signed. In old times they said "going
out in their figures" in mentioning thesa
who went out wearing nothing ever the
waist Of their dresses, and many ladies
thought it indelicnte, and some de still,
se all can be suited.
NEW Sl'IllNO MANTUB.
The new lace wraps have a Httle foun
dation of silk, which is nearly covered
with passementerie and bordered with
lace flouncing from six te ten inches
wide. They can be in any shapethe lady
prefers, and nil nre stylish.
The mantles nre also as various In
style as the wraps. Some have a jacket
bodice, with long lace talis in front and
with long, open lace sleeves, the front of
the bodlce laden with rich beaded trim
ming. Anether style is made of Russian net,
with silk lozenges woven in. This is
made like a gathered basque, with a rib rib
lien licit tied in a deep tint. The front
of the waist has a rich yeke of passe
menterie, nnd the sleeves nre open from
the shoulders. I cannot describe nil the
pretty and dressy lnce wraps and man
tles that I have seen this week, but the
distinguishing point hns always been the
long, open, hanging sleeves, or, as seme
cnll them, the Jewish sleove. Some of
them hang qulte te the bottom of the
dress, nnd ethers have the front arranged
in scarf fashion, with the ends reaching
the feet of the dress. One had 11 s6rt of
scarf front of black China crepe around
the neck, which fnstened nt the belt and
then flowed loeso te the feet of the gown,
and the lnce milling was placed beneath
the loeso folds of the crepe. It was
very odd, but pretty. Any handy lady
can make herself nmnntle or wrnp, given
a little patience nnd taste, with a very
small amount of money.
There is a new fancy in the manner of
wearing a bridal veil, nnd, as in duty
bound, I transfer it te this paper for the
lienefit of theso young girls who, net do de
terrcd by their married friends' warn
ings, are about te require a wedding out
fit. The hair is dressed high in a sort of
a knot, with the curls brought down in
the middle of the forehead, and a few
little strands iu the back of the neck
curled. The veil is then thrown ever
the hend, the edge just reaching the tip
of the uose in front, nnd then an elastic
band is brought ever the knot and the
veil, which is pulled up loosely, takes the
shape of a cap crown after the elastle is
tightened. A sprny of erange blossoms
is fastened in front 011 the eutside of it
OSK JIOIIK UNFOitTUNATE.
The gown most in vegue this season
for these (sacrificial ceremonies is of
cream brocaded witln, with trimmings et
heft Japauese crepe, with n cpruy of nat
ural erange blossoms laid up te the shoul
der en ene side. A bouquet of the same
flowers is carried in the hand, but it new
does net requliu 11 hundred yards of satin
nbbeu. The lieiiquctH for brides nre
small und of loosely bunched flowers,
with plenty of green leaves instead of the
ungraceful set bouquets of Inst season,
which looked liku it full moon with a
comet of ribbon for satellite. A truin is

veil 1- worn, and till bridesmaids nnd

KATE SHELLEY'S DELAYED REWARD.
After Mine Tears Her CnsrllWh Daring
(let Recognition.
Brave Kate Shelley need no longer
fear for the safety of her little home
near Moingona, la. The mortgage, te
pay the interest en which she toiled at
school teaching, has been lifted through
the instrumentality of The Chicago Tri
bune, and the surplus et the fund raised
will be deveted te improving the little
farm that rJTerds a living te the family
dependent en Miss Shelley's Inber for
support her widowed mother and young
sisters and brother.
WHERB THE HEROINE LIVES.
The girl's story? Itisasimple oneet
everyday heroism nccentnnted and made
known by ene deed of splendid daring.
Between Beeno nnd Molngena (llve
miles) the Northwestern railway cresses
tpcnty-one bridges. On the night of
JulyO, 1881, n storm piled up the water
in Des Moines river nnd Heney crock
and swept away ten of these structures.
A freight train crushed into the creek
near Kate Shelley's heuse. The girl
hurried out into the midnight tempest
nnd rescued the engineer and fireman.
Then she crawled ever the ties of the
Des Moines river bridge, ran te Moingona
station, stepped the en rushing passenger
train, saved 130 lives and fell fainting
en the trnck.
The country rang with praises of her
magnificent intrepidity, but the substan
tial reward wns small. The railway
company g a v e
her 100 and the
stnte of Iowa
voted her a geld
medal. The ox ex ox
cltementover.tho 15-year-old maid
en resumed her
daily battle with
poverty, and kept
it up cheerfully
and uncomplain
ingly. She had
dropped from
general view un
til last spring a

writer visited her home. He found the
young woman keeping her family to
gether and trying te pay interest en a
mortgage out of a schoeltcachor's salary
of $33 a month. He retold the elery of
her gallant deed. This is net a bad
world, but a forgetful one, and the mo
ment the public were reminded of the
case contributions poured in for Kate
Shelley's benefit. New the mertgage is
paid, and the horeino of Moingona has
ever $300 in bank and seme forty matri matri
meniul offers under consideration.
