a THE PITTSBURG DISPATCH. MONDAY. APRIL .21, 1890. GOTHAM GOES CEAZT. Excitement Attending the Opening of the Iiascball Season. A TALLY-HO LOAD OP GAT CEASES. Four Ancient Cronies and Their Peculiar Characteristics, ACTimr AT 1HE SEASIDE RESORTS 'COr.KESrOXDENCE OP TI1E DISPATCnl KEff Vokk, April 19. This big city is craxy to-day. The cause of all the people talking, with wild gesticulations, running, pushing, crowding to get on a Harlem ele vated train, is that the baseball season for mally opens at both parks the Brother hood and National League. One cannot imagine what fiendish interest is evinced in the national game this year, and people who never saw a game before are the most eager ones to get into the grandstand first "Why? Simply because two organizations have been fighting each other all winter on mat ters technical to baseball, and the unedu cated citizen has been forced to note in the papers the long drawn out litigations Le- tween player and magnate, so that he be came wrought up over the result Kow he is going to see the game to satisfy his curi osity, and if he likes it no doubt by the end of the season he will be a member of the crank contingent Conveyances of all man ner and sort are getting in readiness to whirl up Harlem road to the respective ground"!, but, from the tenor of the talk about the hotels and other public resorts, the Brotherhood will surely catch the ma jority of people. The female admirers of the sport are many here, and the gallant escorts with their tally-ho coaches have set Filth avenue looking at their gay turnouts. Hours be fore the call of game, these stylish people drove through the principal thoroughfares attracting the attention of thousands, who in turn caught the lever and boarded an elevated train to join in the mad hurrah. A COACH-LOAD OF CRANKS. One of the jolliest set of cranks that ever veiled "slide" was the one 'gotten together by invitation from Uncle Nick Engle, the custodian of Brotherhood baseball in Xew Tork. The party, composed of 25 prominent people, including actors, horsemen, newspaper men and men about town,niounted on a tally-ho, started from tbe headquarters on Tuentj Eeventh street at 1 o'clock and traversed the town. The tally-ho had a flag on it inscribed, "Brotherhood forever." They were bailed with cheers evervwbere. for such popular peo ple as DeWolf Hopper.tDigby Bell, Eugene Canfield, Edward Everett Bell. Nick Engle, George Sexton, together with many others, lm - bued tbe whole town with a lanciful feeling that to be strictly proper it should go en masse and witness the initial games of tbe clubs. To have seen the grounds when tbe gong sounded one would have thought tbe whole town had run up to Harlem, and those people who could not gain admittance went back sat isfied in tbe fact that there will be many more games this season. Never in the history of tbe game bas such cnthusasm been shown by New Yorkers. a New York no doubt has more noted charac ters w ho were at one time, years ago, promi nent among men, but now if their names were mentioned they would not be recognized by the present generation. I am amused daily by old timers who gathe- together in an uptown cafe, there to chat, drink and dose away their un ruffled existence. They are not in a destitute state by any means, but possess snug little bank rolls, sufficient to defray all their daily w ants and they are very simple. At 10 o'clock sharp tbe quartet files in one by one order, take their first ej e-opener. pernio the daily papers on file, comment on the subjects of pub lic interest and take several drinks daring tbe session. No one about the place knows tbe proper names of these bappy characters, so to aesignate tnem tne namtues nave invented odd appellations for them, which, by tbe way, are very appropriate to each and alL HIS FACE WAS HIS TORTVKE. First 'is 'Jloonface," who has a round, ex pressionless phiz, with large, jaundice-hued eyes. He bas a severe case of this malady, and his skin is as yellow as a russet shoe. He is an old-time gambler, who, it is said, was such an expert in manipulating the uncertain pack that he finally was barred from any came in tbe city. His peculiar cold facial expression ena bled him to deceive his opponents as to bis holdings, and they never could tell whether be was bluffing or not. Howcver.be would inva riably win all the money, in consequence of which the big Knights of tbe Cloth refused to Eit down with bim. He took out enough to live on, and be is quietly spending it in bis quiet wav, nntil he will forever "cash in his chips," as the Western sport says. Tbe second companion is "the Doctor." He is lame in one limb, and carries a crutch to steady himself. He gets the name "Doctor" from the fact that he was once a practitioner in tne long ago, nut being of a sporting disposi tion floated away from his profession to mingle with the sporting class of society. He man ages to keep comfortably pleasant from tbe woiking influences of "rye and bitters," hut neter succumbing to the soothing charms of Morpheus, like his partners often do. He is more dignified than to allow sleep to overcome bim in a public resort. Tbe third of our queer party is'tlld Sport." He is a typical old-time horse dealer, bo knows and talks a great deal of "horse." In his halcyon days it was bis wont to drive out the road and "swan" several times before returning to the city. He lias sa ed a email competence, and is as hanpy as a sailor ith a pocketful of monev. Lastly comes the greatest character of the team "Old Sunshine" a name which be af fected himself, and be couldn't have cbesen a more appropriate one. He is tbe spirit ot the party, smart, witty, and with a race redolent with smiles and a spirit constantly in a good humor. I don't know anything about bis former life, but like the rest of his friends, be always bas a dollar in bis pocket. Once in a while 1 sit at a near table to them, and tbe subjects discussed, when the liquor they have imbibed is working tbe brain up to a degree of temporary brilliancy, are interesting as well as laughable, especially when "Old Sunshine" gets in a witty observation, which changes tbe subject at once. Politics, public men and their relative standing, sporting events, and often has "Jloonface," usually quiet, waxed warm on religion. They are all truly men of the world, and it's astonishing, considering their sedentary lives, how intelli gently they talk on current topics. Tbe four are all well advanced in age, "Moonfacc" being the most decrepit, walking with great diffi culty. Some day soon lie will be missed from his accustomed haunts, and his three boon pals will silently sit and sip their drink, thinking, pernaps, that the first link in the chain is broken; that the remaining ones are wearing fan away, and that they will rust, crumble and separate on earth to join again in that mysteri ous beyond. A POPULAR PENKSYLVANIAIT. I met one of your Western Pennsylvania's most popular men last week General S. if. Bailey, of Fayette county. He is a Republican ex-State Treasurer of Pennsylvania, and a man of unbounded integrity, and a keen per sonal knowledge of affairs of his own district. He is a person of retiring disposition, and to tbe unacquainted it savors of stiffness, but his popularity in his own Stale demonstrates just the opposite. He was favorably men tioned for the position of Sergoant-at-Arms last autumn, but for some reason it was not awarded to him, but I think with a conciliatory whisper that he would not be forgotten by tbe people in charge of public affairs. His has always been a case of where office sought the man, and never did he voluntarllv parade be fore the public as a beneficiary. His war rec ord is unimpeachable, and to-day be carries a scar In bis bkull which left bim unconscious and supposedly dead on the field of battle. His trusty negro servant carried him off, and nursed him untiringly back to life, even after tbe surgeon bad given up all hope. The General is a jeweler by trade, :-nd at this late day be still Kits at his bench "trying to make a dollar," as be expresses it Ho was over on business connected with his trade, but gave me a few moments' interesting talk on tbe political sitnatlon in bis end of tbe State. As to the Gubernatorial contest be would not com mit himself, but said that his own connty. which was so overwhelmingly carried by the Democrats last year, was slowly revolving back to tbe Republican forces again. I ran down to the "Branch" and Pleasure Bay one day recently. Already tbe scenes there are exceedingly animated; tbe painter, the car penter, tbe gardener, tbe hotel man and the real estate agent are blooming in all tbeir bril liant colors Qireparatory to the opening of the reason. It promises to be the "best." as usual, and extra accommodations are being completed to meet with tbe expected rush from Pittsburg, Chicago, Baltimore and Philadelphia. I don't hear of many Plttsburger who have rented cottages for tbe season. Miss Jennie Fulton, who is so popslar in Pittsburg, has taken a Deaniuni cottage at JUaederl&wn on Pleasure Bay. She will hare as visitors from ber native citv Mrs. Fnlton, Mrs. Arnold, her sister, Mrs, Baldwin and the ex-Mayor. GOING AND COMING. Big Burr Mclntos h is a very conspicuous fig ure on Broadway now. He sails for London on next Wednesday with Augustus Daly's com nany, where this organization will play an en gagement after which it will make a tour of the Continent Whether Mr. Mcintosh has any bistrionic ability or not I can't say, but from his popularity among certain classes bo surely can make a bit of some kind on tbe other side. Miss Cora Tmnie, of the "Gondoliers," sails also to fulnll engagements for D'Ovley Carte in comic opera. I had a pleasant talk with ber yes terday, and she signines her unwillingness to go as the time approaches. Her Pittsburg friends will remember her with" great pleasure, now that she has made such a decided impression in the operatic world. A club numbering CO members has been formed in and around the Brewer House In which everyone RigniHrshis allegiance to the Brotherhood Baseball League by promising not to attend a National Leaguo game during the season. If anyone should he forfeits J5 for each offense. Six millionaires occupied a box at the open ing game of the New York Brotherhood game to-day. They were all brewers, as follows: James Everard. Colonel Joseph Rupert. Fredk. Opperman. Peter Doelger and A. P. Woodruff. Many of the Pittsburg tocie:y people bavo been spending a short visit doun hero enjoying the superb weather and reveling in the sights to be seen in the shop windows. The "season" is near at hand, and swell Pittbnrgers never mis an opportunity to be up on all little "isms" invented by the" ingenious New Yorkers. Among the faces 1 noticed on Broadway during the past few days are: J. K. Morelicad and wife. W. G. McCandless and wife. William Mc Conway and wife. Colonel J. M. Scboonmaker ami wife, J. S. Schooumaker and wife. Miss Lottie Holmes, Miss A. 11. Smith, Mr. and Mrs. J. W. Paul. Mr. aud Mrs. George Shiras. Jr.. Miss Alice Painter, Miss Eleanor Painter, Miss 31. u uutbrie.

Tho Soclnl Sensation Cansed by n Spicy Breach of Fromlao bull Tbe Jury Uunblc to Aarreo Upon n Verdict. mr CABLE TO mK msrATcn.l London, April 20. The breach of promise case in which Miss Hairs sought to obtain 5,000 from Sir George Eliot, M. P., for Monmouth borough, has been the social sensation of tbe past week. The lady, who is 37, rather petite, with a face remarkable for individuality, rather than beauty, was very self-possessed on the stand. She told her story with un usual precision and exactness in circum stances in the highest degree trying She believed her father was a journal ist in New York, and thought he died there in 1855 or 1SG8. She went on the continent at 15 to study for the -j stage, but instead ol doing so she seems to have devoted her time to obtaining conces sions and floating companies. She had a patent for consuming smoke, a Russian con cession for consuming Tips, aud took part in the floating of the Anglo-Spanish cable, re ceiving as her share some 7,000. Then she had a colliery concession in Silesia, nnd in connection with this she first met, in 18S5, Sir George Eliot, a prominent English colliery owner whom she thought might help her to realize on the property. She alleges that tbe gallant Baronet ad mired her Irom the first and that at their third interview their acquaintance ripened into what she expected would result In marriage. She admitted she didn't love him very much, butdcclared she desired intellect mbre than youth and manly beauty, a remark which obviously pleased the Court, for the judge upon the bench and the Queen's Counsel present, all within easy reach of their last resting place, immediately plumed themselves and as sumed expressions of countenance usually associated with high intellectual abilities. Afterward when Sir George declined to fulfill his promise the action was brought Sir George then told his story. He began life as a boy in a coal pit He utilized, later on, waste coaldust for the manufacture of coke aud thus laid the foundation of his fortunes. He is now at 74 a great colliery owner, with bis eldestson in Parliamentand a great number of grandchildren. Sir George said he discovered that a certain Count on the continent shared his lady's smiles, and that in consideration ot her attention he had given her the Silesian colliery concession. He stated that this was the one great sorrow of his life, but totally denied that he had ever made any promise of marriage. The Judge said he had no sympathy with either of the parties, and the jury disagreed in their verdict. Like Old Major Isaacs, 5L P., who was recently involved in similar trouble, Sir George is a staunch Tory and was a particular favorite of Beaconsfield. Gratifrlns to AH. Tbe high position attained and the universal acceptance and approval of tbe pleasant liquid fruit remedy Syrup of Figs, as the most excel lent laxative known, illustrate the value of the qualities on which its success is based and are abundantly gratifying to tho California Fig Syrup Company.

He said he would attend the meeting with a good deal of interest, as there was much to be learned by one in his position and lie was anxious to place Pittsburg in a position where she would not have either Budden sieck buildings or tinder boxes to endanger the lives of her citizens.
