TROUBLE AMONG THE BROWNS.
The Eostons 'Win Ones More and Main
tain Their Lead,
GENERAL SPOUTING NEWS OP THE DAT
A team of baseball players who could win
every game they played would be a wonder
and would not be
the desired thing
in the big League
very long. And
that is one rea
son why the de
feat of our slug
gers yesterday at
Exposition Park
by the Colonels
of Louisville is
not to be re
gretted very
mnch. It was
the fifth game
played on the
local grounds and the first defeat. An aver
age of that kind will just make the sluggers
of tins bailiwick very important people
next October if it can be kept up. Other
teams must have a show now and again, or
ele the 12-club League will soon go to smash.
But yesterday's game, although a home
defeat, was one of the most interesting that
has been played here. There were a little
more than 3,000 people in the park and
there would certainly have been many more
THIS IS JOJCES, OF HOMESTEAD.
had it been publicly known that Alexander
Marvelous Jones, of Homestead, was going
to pitch. In withholding this fact from the
public, Hanager Chapman simply lost his
club and the local club a considerable
amount of dollars.
Wanted to See Jones.
Everybody wanted to see Jones, and
doubtless had the chieftain of the Colonels
told the public that Alexander the Great
was going to perform, a general holiday
would have been declared at Homestead.
And Jones, the raarvelou. is worth look
ing at. He was the great barrier between
our sluggers and victory yesterday. He
didn't even allow them the remotest hope of
victory, and whenever an aspiration for such
a thing was manifested he nipped it in the
bud. He is, indeed, a marvelous young
man, comparing hi work yesterday with the
work of other pitchers who have pertormed
here this season. The venerable John Cork
hill was the onlv local man who came any
where near sizing the Homestead wonder
up. Try as they could, our sluggers couldn't
make a mark against Alexander, except
Beckley, who made one hit His thump and
Corkhill's two were all that were made.
Jones may strike a snag one of these days,
but if he keeps up his work of yesterday
that day is not likely to come et awhile.
He has speed and curves that make him a
very good man, and he is a credit to that
borough that has already produced many
good performers in the national game
contests.
When It Wai Close.
Up to the sixth inning the game was a
brilliant one, and a pitchers' battle of the
Tcry best kind. Baldwin was pitching in
his best form, but in the second half of that
inning a decision bv Umpire Lynch gave
the Louisvilles a run, which allowed a
second ruu to be scored, and that upset
3Iark completely. It was the general opin
ion that Jones should have been out at first
bae, and that would have retired the side.
But he was declared safe and a run scored,
and Jones subsequently tallied also. The
decision was a close one, and certainly
Umpire Lynch must be credited with doing
what he thought was right, and his judg
ment probably was more correct than that of
the spectators.
After that inning the local talent were not
in the hunt. But if Baldwin had pitched as
remarkable a game after that as did Jones,
victory would still have been on the side of
the Colonels. Three hits cannot win a game,
and the only fault, if there could reason
ably be any found, was the inabilitv of the
Pittsburgers to connect with the delivery of
marvelous Alexander.
For the first lour innings everything went
as nice and as brisk as a new yacht in a
pleasant breeze. But the filth came, and
after the local representatives had done
nothing the isitors broke the ice. Mr.
Taylor led off with a two bagger a real
luckv one. He reached third on Billv
Kuehne's sacrifice, and then Grim knocked
a grounder to Baldwin. Mark got the ball
and Taylor was rushing lor home. He
stopped and was bottled up between third
and the home plate. He dodged about
long enough, however, to allow Grim to
reach third and then was touched out be
tween the bases.
There Was a Kick.
Jones followed and knocked a grounder
to Bierbauer, who juggled the ball for a
moment or so. He made a good throw to
first, but Jones, who is quite a sprinter, was
at first base before the ball, according to the
opinion of Mr. Lynch. The crowd thought
thoueht he wasn't and there was some loud
hooting and veiling. At any rate, Grim
scored. Tom Brown appeared next and he
banged the ball in between Miller and
CorkhilL Miller tried to get it but failed,
and Tom was credited with a three bagger,
scoring Jones.
In the seventh inning, after Kuchne was
out, Ryan sent out a two-baser to left field
and he scored on Smith's lnuffof Jones' fly.
Brown made a single hit, and Jones, who
had reached-second on Smith's error, scored.
In the eighth inning Baldwin was a little
easy. Seery, Browning, Jennings and Tay-
lor each made a 6ingle in succession which
scored two earned luns.
The home talent had no chance to score.
Only twice did thev get a man to third
base, viz, when Beckley and Corkhill made
their three-bagger. Corkhill's triplb was
made in the eighth with nobody out, but
Hack was thrown out at first and Baldwin
struck but for the third time. Miller was
also easily put out at first and old Corkhill
was left at third bag. The visitors played
an admirable fielding game. Jennings
made one or two exceedingly brilliant stops
and he showed that he is among the very
best of short stops. The score:

F2ESIDEJJT TEMPLE BESIGN8.
Tho Local Rail Club Magnate Hasn't Time
to Look After Baseball.
President W. C. Temple, of the local base
ball club, caused a surprise by tendering his
resignation yesterday to the directors of
tho club. The reason assigned for Ills ac
tion was that he had not time to attend to
the duties or the office.. His other business
demands his entire attention. It was also
stated that he wanted to bo freed from' the
office so no to better enjoy himself at the
games. If he wero not president of the club
lie thinks he could cn)oy tho game and take
part in the enthusiasm with greater free
dom. It is likely that Vice President Eerr
will succeed Mr. Temrile.
All local lovers of the game will re'rret the
resolve or Mr. Temple. He Is in all respects New!KngUnd League teams Mfouows:MeCarron. or A W ATPl-TTAl P WTTlfiW " wuroaa twcKeaT.y yesiorony "'"""'

A Minister andBisCliolr Singer Talk About
Galvln and Gladstone.
The minister entered an electric car yes
terday morning, and sat down beside the
young bank clerk who sings tenor in his
choir. The minister had Just been reading
Gladstone's speech on the woman suffrage
movement, and the bank clerk was finishing
an account of Monday's PittsDurg-Louisvllle
ball game.
"Grand old roan that," said the minister.
"Wonderful intellect, so fertile In re
source." The bank clerk looked up a little sur
prised, and folded his paper. He did not ex
pect to see so much enthusiasm on tho part
of his pastor. But lie replied:
"Yes, indeed, he Is a grand old man, and,
as you say, he plays every point in a heady
way. That is tho wav to win, too."
The minister was pleased to see the young
choir sinser so well posted on English poli
tics, and thought tc expand the idea a little
further. .
"He has great force, don't you thlnkt" he
said.
"Yes, creat speed," replied the bank clerk,
'and can strike n corkins blow when hits
are needed. It makes mo yell like a pirate
to see the old horse trotting ovor the bases
on a tied score."
This mvstined the minister a little and
rather pained him to note thouso or slam;
speech on the part of his young member.
But he said quietlv:
Grand Old Man!"
"Grand Old Sport." murmured the tenor.
The ministerlookedat him over his glasses.
"Are you referring to Gladstone, young
man!"
"Gladstone!" The clerk turned seven dif
ferent colors. "I was talking of Pitchor
Jimmie Galvin. Were yon not at the ball
game yesterday?"
The minister signaled the conductor and
got off the car ouickly, with "that tired feel
ing" showing on every feature of his kind
lace.
TEOTJBLE AMONG THE BROWNS.
Glasscock and Werden Would Bo Thankful
for Their Releases.
CiifCilciATi, April 26 SpeciaL There Is a
feelins of unrest in the ranks of the St. Louis
Bronns which was learned by the rumor
that John Glasscock would bo benched nnd
Perry Werden released. In tho hours or de
feat life in the Browns' camp is not quite as
lovely as promenades in a rose gardon.
"I'm slad we ore eoing homo," said Presi
dent Von der Ahe this afternoon, "for then
we can get away from these stories calcu
lated to disiupt tho team. Pittsburg is full
of fakirs, and they commenced the trouble.
There is no trnth in the tale about Werden
and Giasscock. Iteilly has not signed, and
at the sate yesterday we talked bit, but did
not approach business mtttcrs. When wo
get home I feel sure that team work can be
got out of the Biowns. The team is good
enough to win, and It will win. It takes
tlmo to train a lot of new men gathered from
all parts of the country to work together,
bnt tne Browns will h-ive a long stay at
home among friends, and St. Louis will then
move up."
Some of the players, however, are bitter in
their criticism of their treatment, and it will
take lots of Kind words ot encouragement to
change tho leelings of resentment that have
soured them. Both Glasscock and Werden
were frank to say that they would accept
their release at once and give thanks. Cap
tain Strieker is actlvelv engaged In the rolo
of peacemaker, and is doing his level best to
restore confidence among the players, who
ate really blue and demoralized.
Their First Sunday Game.
Clevei.atd, April 26 ISpecial. It need
cause no surprise to hear that the Cleveland
club will play its first Sunday gamo with
Cincinuati on May 1. Thero is apionounccd
anti-Sunday sentiment in this city which
the homo management has never cared to
run counter to, but the Sundav game at St.
Louis, where Cincinnati jumped in Cleve
land's schedule time and played to 13.000 peo
ple, had Its effect. It is piouable that other
dates will bo transferied throughout the
season, so that tho home team will play at
least five Sunday games at Cincinnati.

Is not popular, and the public seems Indifferent to

here. "Westside citizens have for some
time boen trying in various ways to get rid
of the institution, and one of tho Aldermen
thinks ho has solved tho mat'er by an ordi
nance providing for tho extension of Jack
son street several blocks west of the pres
ont terminus. This, if done, would provide
for the condemning of laud tin ouch the

NEWSY NOTES FEOH NEAEBT TOWNS
rsr-ECIAI, TELEGRAM TO THE DISPATCn.J
McKeesport, April 26. It now seems
to be almost certain that Ferdinand Koer
her, the missing puddlcr who worked at the
"W. Dcwees "Wood Company works and
lived on the brow of Neil's hill, Mifflin
township, opposite the works, was drowned,
and it is now believed that he was mur
dered and thrown into the Monongahela
river at the foot of Walnut street. The
river has been dragged all day, but up to a
late hour the body has not been recovered.
The skiff that he used to cross the river to
the works has not been found.
It now seems that when last seen he was
accompanied by two strange men, which was
about 10 o'clock Saturday night, and with
whom he had been quarreling. About 10
o'clock a watchman at the works, who had
been waiting -for Koerher, went to where
his boat was tied and found it still there.
He then took a walk around the works and
went back. Just before he reached the
point where one .descends to the river, he
heard a splash and saw two men come up
from the water's edge, pass up "Walnut
street and disappear.
The watchman did not think anything
was wrong, although he found that the boat
was gone. The missing man is supposed to
have had between S150 and 1200 with him
at the time, with which he was going to pay
for a part of a lot, which makes his friends
believe all the more that he was murdered.
Another theory is that he may have fallen
into the water, and tho swift current car
ried the boat under some barges which lay
below. A sad feature or it is that his little
wife sits on tho porch all day, watching the
men hunting for the body on the river
nearby. His boat is painted red and white,
and is inscribed "Maud S" on the side.

PLENTY OP GAS LEFT.
A Good Showing Made by the Philadelphia
Company in Its Annual Report ?h
Construction or a Fnel Gas Plant for the
Future Recommended.
The annual report of the .. Philadelphia
Company was issued to stockholders yester
day. The earnings were $3,024,864 31, and
expenses $1,834,065 06. The board feels it
was justified in beginning the payment of
dividends, and their continuance is assured.
The company's bonds, with the exception
of $727,000, have been canceled. The com
pany has entered seven new gas fields: Lin
den,' Elizabeth, Moon, Stowe. Eiley, Slialcr
and Plum. The two last mentioned fields
have only been recently acqnired, and not
yet developed to any extent, but prepara
tions have been made for a thorough test.
The report continues:
The amount expended daring the fiscal
year ending Maicli 81, for the purchase of
new pipe, was $226,943 IS: reclaiming and lc
laying old lines, together with laying new
pipe, and purchase of lend and other neces
sary material, $91,044 06. Seventeen gas
wells nnd gas rights in 3,556 acres were pur
chased at a cost or about $91,6X1 00. The num
ber of wells completed during the year was
67, of which 40 were zas, 2 small oil well and
15 non-producing. To these add the 17 wells
purchased, which gives a total of CO gas-nro-dnclng
wells added during the jear. Tno
amount of casing used in the wells drilled by
your company was 20 miles, of wuicli
216-10 miles was casing re-used. The total
cost of drilling was$2I7.20 09, not including
caslne reused, which, with the other Items
named, mates a total of $375,231 21 expended
on new work during the year, all of which
has been charged to expenses, and has been
paid, at present time, except notes amount
ing to $93,150 C6, held bythe National Tube
Works Company, which is the only paper of
your company held by any party. The
other obligations outstanding arc $3S0,003 00
bonds, and balance due on the Belle Vernon
line. $137,000 0C, which will bo paid by August
1, 1892. Exclusive of the drilling of w ells,
the principal work performed during tho
year consisted In laylngabout five miles of 20
inch pipe, 25 miles of 16 inch, and 23.4 miles
of 12, 10, 8 and 16 inch; and reclaim
ing about 23.2 miles of various sizes, varying
from 18 to 0 inch, which wero transferred
to other points nnd relald, aggregating
about 75 6 miles of pipe handled. The gas
and oil rights at present leased and owned
by the company amounts to 36,993 acres.
During the year 12,597 acres, were surren
dered, decreasing the annual rental $23,321 51,
and 7,833 aei es were leased in other fields, ut
an annual rental of $13. ISO, making a de
crease of $10,141 50 in the annual rentals.
The present yearly rentals upon gas wells
ami territory amount totw.iv.
The Alle-rhenv Heating Company has
shown a marteed improvement under its
new manazement. During the months of
December. 1810, and January. February and
March. 1831, the gross receipts under the old
mnungement were $180,878 61. During the
same months of 1891 and IbttJ tlie receipts
were $304,877 13, or an increase of KJpcr cent.
The Philadelphia Company's share of earn
ings for these respective months of each
year, was $93,813 47 und $100,711 24. or an In
crease of over 67 per cent. In Chicago, St.
Louis and several other .cities ordinary
illuminating gas is used in ranges, cooking
stoves, and for heating purposes, at 90 cents,
$1 and $1 25 por 1,000 feet, and In most of the
cases as cheaply as coal, when tho superior
facilities and cost of handling, etc., aio con
sidered; therefore thero seems to be no good
reason why gas cannot bemminfactnred and
sold in Pittsburg, where the coal used in tho
manufacture can be purchased much
cheaper. If the same caro.-nnd economy be
exercised. While we can see no good reason
to anticipate such a decrcaso in tiro supply
of natural gas a to render a fuel gas plant
necessary in the near future, yet stops
should be taken to secure an eligible prop
erty for manufacturlng'pnrposes."
CONVENTIONS OF MINEBS.
The Presidency of the Pittsburg District
Will Be Decided To-Da jr.
Tlie annual convention of Pittsburg Dis
trict No. 5, United Mine "Workers, will be
held in K. of L. Hall to-day. President
Costello is a candidate to succeed himself.
His only opponent is Charles Wallace, of
Mansfield. Both men have been doing some
lively hustling. On Thursday the meeting
will be opened to miners, organized and un
organized, to consider the 4 scale tor next
year. The present rate of 79 cents per ton
expires May L
A big mass meeting of miners will be
held in Monongahej.i City on Friday to
boost the association. The failure io win
several strikes has sadly depleted its ranks.
The question of forming river districts and
the dead scale rjtieston will . be dis
cussed. It is hinted that some of
tho bosses charge the association
with not sticking to the men in the last
strike, and they will attempt to form a
rival organization. The river operators
have served notice on their employes thnt
in future the railroad rate of miniug will
prevail. A difference of a half cent exists,
and the miners will fight for it.

I wish you would give me some of
the Carlsbad Sprudel Salt. Mamma
said it done you so much good, and
has cleared your complexion. They
need it, too."
The natural Carlsbad Sprudel Salt
(powder form) is an excellent Aperi
ent, Laxative and Diuretic. It clears
the complexion and purifies the blood.
It is easily soluble, pleasant to take
and permanent in action. The gen
uine product of the Carlsbad Springs
has the signature "Eisner & Men
delson Co.," Agents, and Importers
of Mineral Waters, 6 Barclay street,
New York, on every bottle. w
It is an old-fashion notion
that medicine has to taste
bad to do any good.
Scott's Emulsion is cod
liver oil with its fish-fat taste
lost nothing :s lost but the
taste.
This is more than a mat
ter of comfort. Agreeable
taste is always a help to di
gestion. A sickening taste
is always a hindrance.
There is only harm in taking
cod-liver oil unless you digest
it. Avoid the taste.
