i
GENERAL SPOETIKG SEWS OF THE DAT
To those people interested in the national
game there is always something exceeding
ly interesting in a conversation with one of
the baseball pioneers. "Old timers" inva
riably have lots of entertaining recollec
tionsHo talk about, and they usually take
great delight in telling of the "good old
times." This certainly is the case with Mr.
Charles S. Clampitt of this city. He is
now 61 years old, and was playing baseball
nearly 40 years ago. He was a member of
the historic Olympic Ball Clnb of Philadel
phia, and has in his possession a little book
containing a list of members of that club
and a brief sketch of Its early history. It was
organized in 1S33 to play townball, from which
Mr. Clampitt states baseball developed.
The little history of the club goes on to say :
"The Olympic Ball Club was established by the
union of two associations of townball players
in the year 1S33. One of these associations be
gan playing at Camden, H. J., on Market
street, near or upon the ground where the
Episcopal church stands, in the spring of 1S3L
On the first day there were but four of us and
the game was called 'catball,' or what is
called in some parts of New England, two
old cat."
THE OLD-TIME TEAM.
"The players, who were then over 25 years
old, told some of their younger friends of the
pleasure and advantage they found in re
luming their boyish sport, and invitdd them to
join and make up a number large enough for a
game of townball. This was soon done and a
party of from 35 to 20 regularly went over to
Camden on Saturday afternoons in a horse
ferry boat and played the game of townball."
Public opinion was strong against such
"childish amusement," and this feeling retard
ed the development of the game considerably.
During a conversation last evening Mr. Clam
pitt said that this public sentiment against the
game continued for a long time. He contin
ued: "There were many prominent business
men in the club, however, and they stuck to
gether until the public feeling underwent a
change. Games were played on Wednesdays
and Saturdays, and Degan to attract considera
ble attention. New York people began to no
tice them, and, as a result, the New Yorkers
improved on our game, organized the Knicker
bocker club and played baseball. This was, I
think, in 1846. and two or three years later we
followed the example of the New York people.
Townball was in many respects similar to base
ball; hut in the former game if a pitcher hit
the runner with the call between the bases the
runner was out However, the Olympic I
think, was the first organized club, and doubt
less its existence prompted the formation of
the first baseball club.
THE GAME BECAME POPULAR
"There were soon many clubs formed and we
all played baseball, and the game became more
popular than the old game. We played for
honor, the only trophy being a ball. In our
club we made our own balls. Every six months
a committee was appointed for this purpose,
and the balls were made of a piece of India
mkB. v ri vHtt twine wnrsTprl anil tnf
skin. The contests became exciting because.
of the intense rivalry there existed between
Philadelphia and New York. The Athletics
were organized in the former city and the At
lantics in New York, and they had lively times.
Al Reach, Sisler and McBride were in the Ath
letic team, and I remember vividly a game be
tween the two clubs when the fences were all
broken down. The Athletics won, and it was,
indeed, a great time.
"In the early history of these clubs nobody
was paid for his services, but the clubs gradu
ally drifted into professionalism, and I'll tell
you how that took place. It was soon dis
covered that tbegreatstrength of ateam rested
in the pitcher and catcher. There was such a
strong desire to win on the part of each clnb
that it became the custom to pay for a good
battery. But this couldn't be contmued with
out charging an admlssian fee, which was done
eventually. Then clubs began to
PAT POB GOOD MEK
In. aU positions from the money realized at the
gate. From this the custom developed into
bona fide professionalism and has continued
ever since.
"Of course the rules of those early games
were extremely different from the rules of to
day. I used to be a strong enthusiast in the
olden time, hut really the game is so different
now in almost all respects that I don't feel at
home when watching a game nowadays. 1 took
part In a game last season and found that the
methods are entirely different. I was a left
fielder in my day, and at that time fielders had
plenty of work, I assure you. Then the pitcher
tried to pnt the ball where the batter could hit
it, but now the extreme opposite is the case.
Certainly In my young baseball days nobody
ever thought that the game would ever develop
to such extraordinary dimensions as it has
done. Its advancement, in the eyes of those
of . us who helped to inaugurate it. has
really been wonderful, and goodness knows
where it will stop. Onetbing connected with
modern baseball I note with pride and that is
its honesty. I can remember when players
would accept bribes and lose a game with com
parative impunity. Now a player cannot dojso
without ruining his professional prospects for
ever. However, I still admire the good old
methods which enabled us to make 20 or 30
runs. That kept the crowds shouting and
everybody busy."
DR. CARTER IN TROUBLE.
His Gun Attached and Suit Entered
Against Ilira.
There was a lively scene at the Avenue Base
ball Park yesterday at the close of the Carver
Bandle shooting match. It was caused by three
ro:n makingji break for Dr. Carver's gun. The
affair created a lot of fun, and resulted in the
gun being divided between two of the consta
bles. "Yesterday George M. Allen, of Terre Haute,
Ind., entered suit before 'Squire Bright to re
cover 597 from Dr. Carver, clue on a promissory
note. A writ of attachment was issued to
Constable Frank Johnson.
The attorney of Conrad Berens, the Phila
delphia occulist, entered suit before 'Squire
Hornbcrger to recover $140 from Carver for
online the latter's eyes. A writ was issued to
Constables Jimmy Meyers and John Rebold.
While the match was in progress the three offi
cers were on the scene waiting for a chance to
seize Carver's gun.
It came, at last. Just as the match closed
Carver took his gun apart and laid it down.
Just-as he dl. thecmen rushed for it. Tbey
were the constables. Notwithstanding Johnson
weighs nearly 300 pounds, be got there firstand
attached the barrels of the gun.- Before be
cbuld seize anything else Constables Rebold
and Meyers attached the stock of the gun and
all of the doctor's cartridges. The gun is
valued at tX Cincinnati Enquirer.
WANTS A SEPARATION.
Umpire Barnnm Aska to be Kept Amur
From the Players.
In the Washington correspondence of the
New York Sim is the following: Umpire Bar
sum, in a lengthy communication to President
Young, reiterates his views regarding the sep
aration of umpires from playing as much as
possible, and bis suggestions are worthy of
consideration. Oneptiliit that be brings out
strongly is to the effect t;.at after a game, and
especially one that has been close and exciting,
the umpire should not be compelled to come in
contact with tbe players in the clubhouse.
Very frequently remarks are made that have a
tendency to create ill feeling betweeu players
who think tbey have been discriminated
against by the umpire, and this could be ob
viated by the umpire keeping away from the
men. He renews bis suggestion that tbe um
pire should be furnished with a conveyance of
Ills own to and from tbe grounds, and should
not be compelled to ride in the coach alloted
to one of the teams. His idea is to do away
with fraternization 6etween nmpires and play
ers, as it will have a tendency to make the
former the impartial Judge of the contest that
it is Intended an umpire shall be.
DISAPPOINTED SPORTS.
The Wheeling Doe Fight Did Net Take
Place Lively Scenes. .
The big croud of Pittsburg sports who went
to Wheeling on Saturday to witness the dog
fight between Napoleon Jack and an imported
dog owned by J. Pembleton, of tbe Southslde,
were sadly disappointed. The battle did not
take place, and, as a result, there was a lively
time among the patrons of the pit. The Pitts
burgers went to Wheeling expecting to witness
a chicken main, a dog fight and a prize fight.
Only tbe first named took place.
The chicken main turned out to be much
smaller than anticipated, as there were only
six battles between Wheeling and Phillipsburg
birds. Four of tho battles were "won by the
Phillipsburg party, and each contest was for
125 a side. The main took place in a rink at
Fulton, near Wheeling.
It was intended to have the dogfight in the
rink when the main finished, but the crowd,
made up of Wheeling, Steubenville, East Liv
erpool and Pittsburg sports, was so rough and
demonstrative that the owner of the building
refused its use and demanded everybody to
leave. A number of free fights ensued and one
man received a severe cut m the bead with a
bottle. The dog fighters then proceeded to a
barn a mile and a half away from Wheeling.
The promoters of the fight began to charge S2
per head admission to see the battle. After
about 50 persons had been admitted at this rate
tbe Wheeling sports broke into the barn in
wholesale fashion. It was then deemed unsafe
to have the fight take place, and the owners
and their dogs disappeared with a bowling mob
after them.
Ihev returned to Wheeling when a stable
was offered tbem to fight in private. Klrly, tho
owner of Napoleon Jack, declined the offer,
though Pembleton was willing to accept it.
After considerable wrangling Pembleton and
his dog left for home on the 5 o'clock train.
Klrly took his dog to Martin's Ferry, wherelhe
spent yesterday. It is likely that the battle
will take place this week. The prize fight was
lost sight of owing to the trouble concerning
the dog fight.
A WORTHY MOVEMENT.
Efforts Being Made to Organize a Real
Amateur Boat Clnb.
Efforts are being made to organize a bona fide
amateur boat club in this vicinity. Mr. J. J.
Sweeny, who is connected with the Duquesne
ball club, stated yesterday that several gentle
men interested in aquatics have commenced a
movement to accomplish the object named.
The great object is to have an amateur club
that can, without question, put forth the best
local amateur rowers in the national contests.
Several patrons of the scull are eager to have
John Martin and McCnesney take part in the
national amateur regatta, and to do this effec
tively an amateur boat club of influence is
needed.
At present it is bard to find a local boat club
that can technically be called amateurs. The
want of such an organization has been ex
tremely felt for some time. If an organization
of the kind named were established such prom
ising scullers as John Martin would probably
get a chance to measure sculls with.the cham
pions of other clubs in the country. It is also
probable that other good scullers would be de
veloped here, as there are lots of powerful
young men in tbe neighborhood who desire to
become bona fide amateur scullers.
Tbe idea as expressed by Mr. Sweeney is to
have all those interested in such an organiz
ation meet and form a club independent of and
entirely distinct from any other club in the
city. The proposed club could be formed on
purely amateur principles. A step of this kind
would certainly do much toward redeeming the
prestige of acquatics here. At present that ex
cellent branch of sport is under a ban, but it is
possible to return it to public favor by the
method mentioned above.
PRESIDENT YOUNG'S VIEWS.
He Explains Matters Aboat the Players in
Spalding's Team.
Washington, March 17. "None of the
players who have been making tbe tour of the
world under the supervision of Mr. Spalding
have been assigned to classes," said President
Young, of the League, "and they will be ex
empt from classification for 15 days after their
return to the United States. This rule applies
to John Ward as well as bis companions, and
tbe reason for it lies in the fact that it was
adopted after tbe tourists left this country en
route to Australia. I have been authorized by
Mr. Day to release Ward to the Washington
management upon his signing a contract and
the payment to me of the sum promised by Mr.
Hewitt to the New York's President.
"Should the 512,000 for the consummation of
the deal be paid over to me, it will make up
ward of 50,000 that have passed through my
hands in tbe past few years for ball players. Of
course this arrangement between Messrs. Day
and Hewitt renders it illegal for any further
attempts by theBostonians to secure Ward,and
that seems to be pretty well understood by
Messrs. Billings, Conantand Sodcn. Upon the
arrival of Ward in tnis country, he will be met
at New York by Mr. Hewitt; who considers
that the wisest course for him to pursue is to
have a personal consultation with John, and
not conduct negotiations at long range through
the medium of the mails. More business can
be transacted in a 15 minutes' talk than can be
accomplished by written communications in as
many days. Naturally, everything is in abey
ance pending a decision by Ward of this mat
ter, but the indications point very strongly to
his donning a Washington uniform for the
baseball season of 1SS9."
What Sllnson Soys.
Regarding tbe challenge of E. N. Guckert,
which appeared in this paper the other day,
Mr. Stinson sends the following reply:
"In reply to the challenge of E. N. Guckert
to play me on tbe guitar, banjo and mandolin.
I am free to admit that he is far above me
as a guitar player. I will, however, play Mr.
Guckert on tbe banjo and mandolin, and will
meet him any day next week to make a match
for 5100 or $300 aside. I have no 51,000 friends.
The contest must be decided by qualified
musicians mutually agreed upon.
C. P. Sttnson."
Off to the Sales.
Billy Fisher, the young horseman of Alle
gheny, left the city for Indiana last evening to
attend tbe horse sales at Cambridge. Raven
Boy, Gray Davy and other good ones are to be
sold. Mr. Fisher desires to buy a good horse.
Hart's Business Yentare.
In a letter to a friend in this city, Frank H.
Hart, the pedestrian, states that he has
entered the saloon business at San Francisco.
He won nearly $4,000 in the recent six-day con
test at that city, and ne means to try and make
another business start in life by it

this season, and the property owners are using
their influence to have One Hundred and Elev

A NATIONAL ORGANIZATION
Of Unskilled Glass Workers to be Formed
In May.
A. meeting of committees from the various
glass packers and mixers and teasers' local
assemblies of the Knights of Labor was held
yesterday at 1505 Carson street. The object of
the gathering was to draw up a proposition for
the formation of theTJlasshousenien's National
Trades District of the K. of L.
These men are employed in different branches
ot the trade and have repeatedly tried to gain
admission to the American Flint Glass Work
ers' Union, the Window Glass Workers' Asso
ciation and tbe different organizations of green
glass and prescription workers, but without
success. The cause of their rejection was that
they were not 'classed as skilled workmen. It
was decided yesterday to send the proposition
to all the local assemblies in the country, and a
convention will be held in this city some time
in May, when the organization will be formed.

General Boulanger Outlines His Flans
and Declares That He is
STILL IN FAVOfi OF A REPUBLIC.
Measures Taken to Avert the Threatened
Financial Crisis.
HONOEING THE BASEBALL PLATERS
Pabis, March 17. General Boulanger
went to-day to Tours. The train which
conveyed him stopped at Bloisand St Pierre
des Corps, at both of which towns enthusi
astic demonstrations were made in his
honor. At Tours a crowd of 3,000 persons
gathered at his hotel to -welcome him. In
response to vociferous cheering the Gen
eral appeared upon a balcony and expressed
his thanks for the reception accorded him.
In the evening a banquet was given, at
which Senator Naqnet and several members
of the Chamber of Deputies were present.
In a speech M. Naquet pointed out the fa
cility with which the adhesion of the Con
servatives to a moderate republic might be
obtained. He referred to General Bou
langer's intention to restore religious peace
to the country by stopping the policy of
persecution. Boulanger would appeal to
the country, and if the nation voted to
maintain the concordat the question should
be allowed to rest for 40 years.
BOULANGEB TALKS.
General Boulanger followed with a speech
of the usual kind. He said: "The Con
servatives who follow me understand that
the restoration of the monarchy is impossi
ble without a violent upheaval, and they
adhere to the Bepublic on condition that it
be made habitable and be sanctioned by the
people directly consulted."
In concluding he 'repudiated, on behalf
of the national party, the idea of either a
monarchical conspiracy or demagoguery,de
claring that the goal toward which they
were marching was a republic, hut a non
parliamentary republic, which would be
the protectress of the weak and lowly, and
be passionatelv preoccupied with the inter
ests of the people, respecting tbe liberty of
tbe individual and, above all the liberty of con
science. Deroulede and the other accused members ot
the Patriotic League have been summoned to
appear before the court on Tuesday next The
Clarion, the organ of the Patriotic League, de
nies the existence of a plan for a descent by
the League upon the Elysee and the Palais
Bourbon.
THE FINANCIAIi CRISIS.
At the financiers' meeting this morning, M.
Rouvier appealed to the bankers to unite on
both moral and patriotic grounds. He ex
pressed the hope that the 40,000,000 francs of
fresh capital necessary to uphold the Comptoire
d'Escompte would be Immediately subscribed.
At a meeting of the Directors of the Bank of
France, it was decided to make an additional
advance of 20,000,000 francs on condition that a
similar sum be subscribed elsewhere, in order
to avert a judicial liquidation of the Comptoire
d'Escompte's affairs.
The Rothschilds subscribed 3.000,000 francs
and the Credit Foncier 2,000.000. and thesub
scriptlonsof otberhouses brought theaggregate
up to 36,000,000 francs. In response to M. Rou
vfer's appeal the Syndicate Chamber of Stock
Brokers has agreed to advance 3.000,000 francs
to tho Comptoir d'Escompte. The necessary
amount 40,000.000 francs is now subscribed.
Tavande & Cie. bankers of Lemans, have sus
pended. Their liabilities amount to several
million francs.
THE IRISH PROBLEM.
Another Tory Writer Thinks He Has the
Right Solntien.
London, March 18. Clifford Lloyd writes to
the Timet in advocacy of the abolition of the
Irish Lord-Lieutenancy and Dublin Bureau
cracy, and the granting to Ireland of a large
measure of county government retaining the
police as an Imperial organization and read
justing taxation. He says that if both parties in
England could agree to give such a plan a fair
trial there need be no misgiving as to the
result
If home rule is desirable and possible the
scheme will-grow of Its accord, and this is pref
erable to forcing It upon tbe people at the risk
of civil war. To settle tbe Irish question will
need 111 the talent in both parties, and they
must act together in the matter. Any attempt
bv one party to face thejopposition offtbe other
w'lil end In failure and perhaps in national dis
aster. ATTACKING HENRI GEORGE.
The Thunderer Reads a Lesson to Members
of Parliament.
London, March 18. The Times attacks
Messrs. Cremer and Clark, Radical members
of Parliament, for joining with tbo Radical
clubs in the welcome to Henry George on
Saturday. The Times says:
"Mr. George's doctrines corneas near spolia
tion as anything that has been proposed by a
man with a character to lose since the French
revolution. Men like Mr. Cremer wish to apply
the operations of the Irish Leaguers to Ireland,
Scotland and Wales."

Bow to Travel Cheaply In China.
From the Mew York Sun.:
Foreign residents of China apparently
have one valuable resource when they are
threatened with the abuse of a hostile mob.
They may sew pigtails in their hats, don
the dress of the country and become Chinese
themselves to some extent, and the result
will have a tendency to mollify the passions
of the crowd. Mr. Horsburg, describing
his recent journey 1,500 miles up the Yang
tze river, put on Chinese attire, including
the pigtail, and not the least advantage of
his new costume was the fact that it enabled
him to travel the first 1,000 miles for $17,
while the fare for foreigners on the same
boat was $70. Nobody mistook him for a
Chinese, but he seemed to be regarded as an
adopted fellow citizen, entitled to ,all tbe
rights and privileges, including cheap liv
ing of a glorious country. "We have no
reason to know in our own land that John is
deeply prejudiced in favor of the light and
airy attire he brings over with him.
A Chicago Cariosity.
.From the Chicago Xtm.i
There Is said to be a saloon keeper In Chicago

FAITH AM) THE ENEMY.
Rev. Pother Murphy Preaches toParnders
at the Cathedral.
Eev. John T. Murphy, President of the
Holy Ghost College, of this city, delivered
the sermon at St. Paul's Cathedral last
evening. His text was: "This is the victory
that overcome th the world, your faith.'
Father Murphy's sermon was delivered par
ticularly to the members of the Catholic organ
izations who paraded in honor of St Patrick
yesterday. In the first part of his discourse he
reviewed Irish history, -and spoke of good deeds
done by Ireland's patron saint He said that
St Patrick's Day puts before tbe minds of
Irishmen the fact that faith was tbe instru
ment be bestowed on (heir fathers as tbe most
precious of gifts, 1,400 years ago. It Is faith
that gave alumlnary to their lives, and a true
value to their works. It raises them up above
the littleness and misery of their life and files
tbem in God. It reveals to them the greatness
of their destiny. Tells tbem that they have
been created, not for this world but for the
next, not for themselves, but for God. With
out faith a man's life, be he ever so talented,
ever so great ever so pbweful, is wasted.
Without faith a man is a victim to tbe vice
and corruption and consequent delay of fallen
human nature.
Tbe enemy of their faith he claimed came to
them with gloves on his hands, rings on his
fingers, wearing pure linen and broadcloth,
with a smile on bis lips. He does not openly
attack tbe faith, but gives it a passing nod of
respect. He finds his way into the sanctuary
of the home. His work becomes easy when he
find the coast clear. He eats h's way through
their whole family system, until he has re
duced it to one rotten mass of corruption.
"Hand down your faith to your children in
tact and unsullied. Whatever else you do tor
them, instill tbe faith with all its teachings and
practices into their every fiber. Teach them to
love it, to stand up for it, and to fight for it. if
need be; yea, to die torit May God and St
Patrick bless you and yours in this your grave
mission to preserve and propagate our holy
olden faith"
A good many of the reverend gentleman's
hearers construed some of his remarks about
"the enemy" to mean the American Mechanics'
order.
IT MAY BE A STRIKE.
The Master Painters to Enforce Their
- Grading Proposition To-Day.
Last Saturday was the last day given by
the master painters to the journeymen to
accept the grading proposition. The men
had previously and emphatically declined. to
accept tbe terms offered, and the result of the
master painters' action will not be .known until
to-day, when the men present themselves for
work. The men do not believe their em
ployers are in shape to stand a strike, and think
that a better arrangement may be made this
week. n.
As has been stated, the master painters pro
pose to divide the workers into three classes
and grado , them according .to their ability
the first class to receive S3K cents an hour, the
second .27 cents and the third 20 cents. The
journeymen painters claim that they cannot be
graded properly and only 20-cent-an-hour men
will be employed.
The master painters state that under the
present system, an inferior workman receives
as much pay as one who is skilled in his calling,
which is a loss to themselves, an Injustice to
their customers and an injury to competent
workmen.
IT WAS A WATER HAUL.
An Allegheny Raid That was Not Accom

themselves on Sunday. He decided to break
up the party and yesterday afternoon, accom
panied by a posse of 13 officers in citizens
clothes, swooped down on the place. .
The house was surrounded and tbe room was
entered, but it was only occupied qy air,
nothing more. Someone had given the men a
"tip," which they did not hesitate in nsing.The
officers then returned and reported a '-water

MINERS ARE KICKING.
They Strenuously Object to the Pass
age of the Shaw Bill, ancL,
THINK THAT THEY SEE A SCHEME,
At Least One Man Found Who Does Hot
Want to be Ohio's Governor.
Alii THE MEWS FROM KEAE-BI TOWNS
rSTZCIAIi TXLKOnAMTO Tint DISPATCH. 1
Philipsbubq, March 17. The Shaw
bill, now before the Legislature, which
proposes to mate it compulsory on the part
of coal operators to adopt for use in their
mines a recently contrived apparatus in
tended to detect explosive gases in mines,
has aroused intense indignation among the
coal operators and mine laborers through
ont the entire Clearfield bituminous coal re
gion. Petitions remonstrating against the
passage of the bill are being extensively circu
lated and freely signed, and local meetings at
many of the collieries are held nightly to de
vise means of defeating the measure.
At a largely attended meeting held yester
day by the operators and miners a formal peti
tion was adopted to be presented to the Legis
lature by a committee of operators and mlno
laborers. It is vigorously set forth in this re
monstrance that no mechanical contrivance for.
the detection of explosive gases in mines can
take the place of constant vigilant personal in
spection, without which such a device would
be useless and unnecessary.
It is estimated that the cost of putting in the
apparatus, its maintenance and the extra ex
tra expense of a royalty of 2 cents per ton on
all coal mined would aggregate $1,600,000 an
nually, and as these heavy charges cannot be
bome by the mine owners it is claimed that
tbey must either come out of the miners'
wages or out of the pockets of the consumers.
The remonstrance lurther declares that the
real object of tbe bill is to foist upon the
mining industries of the State a useless, dan
gerous and most expensive patent for the
profit of outside, interested parties.

HOW TO SAVE LIFE.
What is a cough ? It is an irritation of tbe
throat and lungs. What cause3 it? Conges
tion. Stop the congestion, the irritation ceases
and the cough is cured. But how to stbp the
congestion ! Ah.there.is just where physicians
have always been puzzled. But it must be
checked, or pneumonia, quick consumption or
some terrible pulmonary disease will follow.
Some doctors give cod liver oil, others cough
syrups, but the most advanced prescribe stim
ulants. Nature must be assisted. Pure whis
key will do it See what physicians say:
Prof. Austin Flint of Bellevue (New York)
College, says: "Tho judicious use of alcoholic
stimulants is one of the striking characteristics
of progress in the practice of medicine during
the last half century."
Professor Henry A. MoK, of New York, says:
"The purity or Duffy's Pure Malt Whiskey (as
simple analytical tests will readily convince a
physician or an expert) should certainly recom
mend it to tbe highest public favor."
Duffy's Pure Malt Whiskey is a certain cure
and preventive of congestion and should be
kept in every family. It is sold by all druggists
and dealers. Be sure and secure the genuine.
