GENERAL SPOETINQ NEWS OP THE DAI
rSFECIAL TELEGRAM TO TIIE DISFATCn.1
Chicago, Xor. 16. Little business was
transacted by the Board of the .National
League and American Association of Pro
fessional Baseball Clubs at the Hotel
Richelieu to-day, with these members pres
ent: Hart, Chicago; Von der Abe, St.
Louis; Ton der Horst, Baltimore; Brush,
Cincinnati; Elliott, "Washington; Soden,
"Boston, and if. E. Young, "Washington.
On motion of Hart the pennant was form
ally awarded to Boston. The Chicago
Baseball club presented a claim of 5267
against the Pittsburg club for money due
for the transfer of games at the close of the
season, but was allowed only 5255, which
the Smoky City club was ordered to pay.
Perhaps the most important business was
the adjusting of the claims of Pittsburg
against Washington and Cleveland. Both
the clubs named forfeited games to Pitts
burg and the local management sought to
enforce the rule which provides lor a fine of
.t,000 for such oiTense. Xo attempt was
jade to mulct the Xew York club, which
also was charged with such an offense. The
directors voted that the Washington club
pay Pittsburg Sl,000,but immediately after
ward remitted 5750 of the fine and sustained
the decision of the umpire in awarding the
game to Pittsburg.
The Senators "Will Pay S250.
As things stand Washington will ante no
1230, and the Pittsburg treasurv will be
enriched that amount. Uy mutual consent
the Pittsburg-Cleveland controversy was
dropped. The two clubs played a tie came
at Pittsburg, October 11, and tho Pittsburs
management claimed a Una of $1,000 because
the fcpiders. who lind an ensnsenient at
home, retused to play off the following
3av.
Ihe Cincinnati club was ordered to pay the
PlttsDurg club $20 tL Carroll, who was fined
heavily by the bt. Louis club for allowing a
ball to slide into his pocket, appealed the
case to the board, but no action was taken.
After considering other matters of import
ance, the board, at 5 SO o'clock, adjourned.
Then President Tounj called the annual
meeting of the League to order. Those
present were: Boston. A. H. Soilen and M.
d. Lonant; ew lurk, John B. Day and Pat
Powers; Brooklyn, Charles A Byrne and
J. A. Abeil; Baltimore. H. R. Von der Horst

fhe session was u short one. After annrov-
tbe action o tliedliectors, the League
idjonrned at 6.30 o'clock to
meet again at
toon to-morrow.
The Easiness for To-Day.
The first business to-morrow will be the
lection of a lioarcl ot Directors. At the
ast annual meeting in .New York 2fick
"bung w as choten President andSecietary
or three j ears, and thus has two more j ears
o serve. It is said that the League will
tind up its business to-monow, althnuzh it
s possible that it may last until Friday.
The League as a body will hardly tecorn
nend any radical changes in ttie playing
ules or vote to enlarge or alter the dia
nond. A strong effort is beimt made by tho
dvocates of the latter theory to lengthen
he base lines from 90 to 93 leet; to abolish
he fiat bat and place the pitcher in the
eometrical center ot the diamond. Bichter
slobbiing lor the scheme and has able
upport, but it is not nnticioated that the
natter will go farther than the hands of a
necial committee, which will leport Its
lews at the l egular spring meeting Frank
Je Hass Uobison. now the sole owner of
he Cleveland club, thinks that the old dia
uond is good for the gme. It lias been
lemonstrated, he said, that the old diamond
isw ers every purpose, x'resiaent nyrne is
ppoacd to the pre-ent system and favots
lacing the pitcher back.
Tnumvir soden, ol Boston thinksnothing
tould be gained by inci easing the distance
(cltvecn the bases. Chris Von der Ahe is in
avor of setting the pitches back He
hlnks that with the bunt abolished the
ilayei s would strike for long hits, and that
ntei est in the game would increase. John
L Day is in favor of tho old rules.

j . Lnfayette started the game with tho
all, and soon drote it into Pennsylvania s
Jrritory. Here tho ball remained for ucarl v
1 minutes, when Pennsylvan'a gradually
jrced it to Lafayette's five-yard line, and
hayer bucked through the line for a touch

as brought to tho center or tho fleld.
afayette again assumed the aggressive and
rove' Pennsylvania back to its 23-yaid line,

They Are Working Hard to Down the Tale
Team on Saturday.
Boston, Sot. 18. Special. Yesterday af
ternoon the Harvard football team began
the weary routine of work on the Soldiers'
Field. As only three days are leit before
the Tale game, tho coacliers improved
every mlnijiawif the time and did their best
to improve some of the weak points ia tho
team.
The players themselves were not particu
larly discouraged at the game which they
saw Yale play on Saturday, and a number
of them expressed a belief that Harvard
would make a good showing against her
Xew Haven rival even if the latter won the
game on the 19th.
The playing of the Harvard men yester
day was lairly encouraging to the coacners,
who think tho men all feel better after the
trip to New r ork and the change of scene
brought with it. More snap and lire were
shown in yesterday's practice than for some
time beforo.but even now the Harvard game
is a very slow one, compared with that
w nich Yale plays.
Every effort has been made to strengthen
the center, the weakness of which is gen
erally iecogni2ed, but no changes have
been made in tho nriangement of the men,
and the. statement that Waters has been
changed fioni left to right guard is not
true.
The Harvard center in the Yale game will
be, as it lias been for the last week. Lewis,
center; Jiackle, right guard, and Waters,
left guard.
It is generally felt at Cambridge that
Harvard is weak in ginund gainers. Be
sides the three backs. Waters, is the only
man who runs with the ball, and he is not
able to do much in that way. as his regular
work at guard takes about all the strength
he has.
GOOD FOE THE CKAFT0NS.
They Defeat the ShaJysides In a Very Good
Football Game.
An exceedingly interesting Rugby football
irame was played at Brushton yesterday
afternoon between the Cratton team and
the team of tho ohadyside Academy. The
contest was just about as exciting as any
seen here for a long time, and although the
Craftons are a newly organized lot tliev de
feated the Shad sides by 10 to 8. The playing
of Heisey, McCain, Barrett, Foster. Dannals
and Scull for the winnois was very good.
The.tackllng of foster and passing back by
Dannals are worthy of particular mention.

died last evening at 9.45 o'clock at tho Mercy
Hospital alter a long illness. Few sporting
men were more popular than Jimmy
Grogan. By honesty and energy he was a
successful speculator in tho oil legions years
ago and came to Pittsburg. In this city he
was respected by all who knew him for his
generosltr and honest dealing. He was also
known and respected on almost every race
track in the country. He was at all times a
liberal patron of ail kinds of honest sport,
and during the 41 years of his Hie hardly
ever had an enemy.
Interesting Wrestling Match.
Great Interest is being centered in the
wrestling contest which is to take place
between Ed Eoilly and Charles Ward next
Saturday evening at Beaver Falls. The
men are to wrestle at HO pounds for the

Beilly is almost at weight and a great con

The feeling at Princeton Is that Yale will win
from Harvard next Saturday, ahe Tigers will at

points Tor Thanksgiving Day.

away: "They say there Is a dent In the curbstone
where-his head struck big enough to hide a chest

Ai though the coachers are reticent about the
general style or play which Is being developed la
the secret practice. It has transpired that owing to
the light weight of her backs. Harvard will depend
largely on the gains around the end.
srEAKlKOofthe "kite-shaped diamond," Harry
Dlddlebock says: "JJo radical innovation is neces

exciting or more popular, 'anc game is an rigni. ' '
Bail players are not In love with football. Jack

The Yale team commenced Tuesday to practice
tricks lu earnest, using some of the newl demised
ones both In the regular practice against the
"scrub" team, and rehearsing more still In the
secret practice for members of the first eleven only
In the evening. The team practiced cstcrday for
the last time before the Hart ard game.
So confident Is Yale that she will whip off the
football pennant this rear she Is betting 3 to 1 on it.
And Harvard money is frlghtlully scarce at that.
The latter's consolation seems to be only that
Pennsylvania did not put up the usual strong game
she is capable of last Saturday with Yale. Pcnusy
piayea a pretty strong game just me same, ana
one that Han ard would have to w ork mighty hard
to excel.

SIKAIGHT STAGE TIPS.
Mr. Willaud showed some new phases of
bis genius in "John Needham's Double" at
the Dnqnesne last night. The play is by
Joseph HattOD, the author of tho book of
the" same name. It is almost a monologue,
and with any but an actor of the first class
in the terribly trying double role, it would
seem a mighty poor play no doubt. But Mr.
Wlllard makes the single character, for the
duplex character becomes one before the
play is half over, so intensely in
teresting, so horribly real, that the
fact that the other actors are mere
shadows in tho backgiound. does
not appear extraordinary at all. The story
Involves the murder of a country gentleman
by a rascally financier, who resembles his
victim in a most remarkable degree, and
who conceals himself for a while under the
respectable identity of the murdered man.
The gradual development of a model ately
bad man Into a thorough-paced villain is
superbly portrayed by Mr. U illard, and the
horror ol the bloody deed and tho terror or
the murderer both take hold of the audi
ence. It is altogether unlike anything that
Mr. Wlllard has done here; lor he has to do
without the svmpatnies of his audience.
The artistic value of the performance
is all the greater tor these unfavorable con
ditions, and Mr. Willard's triumph last
night was as great as any he has achieved
in pleasanter roles. The company support
ing Mr. Willard filled in the background.
That was all they bad to do. Miss Bui
roughs contrived to get a flash of flio
into the final scene with her brother's as
sassin. To-night "The Middleman" will be
repeated. Tho audience last night was a
grand one, and Mr. Willard was called cut
aiter every act, and even at the final cui
tain. At the Alvin Theater next week tho
Warde and James combination will appear.
This is now the leading company of its kind
on the stage, taking the place, in a great
measure, of the famous Booth-Barrett com
bination of two years ago. The Wai de
James organization has made a great im
messlon in every city in which it has an-
pcared. The two stars are popular favor
ites, and the performances given are said to
be superb. The repertory has been arranged
as follows: Monday and Tuesday nights,
"Julius Cassait" Wednesday night and
Thanksgiving matinee, "The Lion's Mouth;"
Thuisday nnd rnday nights nnd Satin day
matinee, "Francesca da Reiuini," and Satur
day night, "Othello." Scats ate now on sale
at the box office.
Wilson Bakhett, with a good company
and plenty ot gorgeous scenery and cos

sale was read and John H. Bailey, the auc
tioneer, announced that a certified check
for 510,000 would have to be deposited by
the purchaser aDd the balance in 60 days on

The bidding, which was very tame,started
at 150,000 and bv $1,000 bids was increased
to $175,000, Irom'which it went by $500 bids
to $205,500. The last amount wasffered by

the Government was $225,000 and they held
the right to reject any or all bids.
The sale was then adjourned until further

hour before his death, ilr. Brodie com
plained to Mr. Dyer of not feeling well,
and went into the little room adjoining his
office. He remained there so long Mr.

Interesting Facts In Regard To
Their Peculiarities.
In Many Ways They HaYJ Mora Nerva
Than Men,
Strange Compound of Timidity and
Courage.
Women are nervous.
There is no doubt of that, but ara they
more nervous than men? Tha nervous sys
tem of women is much more delicate, mora
highly strung, more finely tensloned tbaii
that of men. This renders them capa
ble of higher pleasnres and deerior sorrows
than is possible with man. Men have &
greater brnte bravery, moro intrepidity,
boldness and daring, but women, weaker
physically by far, greatly ezoel men in moral
courage, spirit, fortitude, patience, and et
duranco ornaln and grief.
Suffering or pain that a woman would
scarcely heed will often make a big, strong
man howl. Surgeons tell us that women
will readily suffer pain in the endurance of
operations which nine men out of ten would
find unbearable. Men always make tha
most nervous invalids.
From this it will be seen that women aro
strange compounds of weakness and
strength in regard to their nerves.
It is a fact, nevertheless, that women are)
nervous.
But it is because their nerves have become
weakened and prostrated.
They are not well; something ia wrong
with them aud they must have a renewal of
nerve strength, pojrer and vigor.
A case In point was that of Mrs. Lila C
Root, who lives at 36 Elm St., New Bedford,
Mass. Naturally endowed with strong and
steady nerves, she wns brought to such a
weak condition by disease that she almost
lost control of her nerves, even going so far
as to often think of taking her own life to
end her sufferings.
She says in speaking of her case:
"My kidnevs were in a terrible state. 1 had
awful pains in tho back and side, and could
not sleep at night.
"My headache was a source of great an
noyance, and I suffered much at certain
periods.
"Why, I felt so miserable that I often
thougnt I would tako my own life.
"But I at last took that wonderful medi
cine Dr. Greene's Nervura blood and nerve
remedy, and now I am well. I cannot;
speak too highly of this great remedy, for
it cured me of my terrible complaints. I
deem it my duty to say that I think it is the
best medicine in the world, and I thank
God lor directing me to its use."
We have no doubc that many readers of
our paper, whose nerves are weak, whoso
blood is poor, who have stomach, kidney or
liver complaints, or who feel tired, pros
trated and run down in health, will accept
the above as directing theni to im the same
wonderful medicine which effected such a
marvellous enre in Mrs. Root's case. Wo
have, moreover, no hesitation.lt our advice
and guidance is asked in the matter, to urge
our suffering people to follow her example
and use Dr. Greene's Nervura blood ana
nerve remedy. It is especially valuable and
sure of enre for women with weak nerves,
insomnia or female cordplalnts, weakness,
etc.
We furthermore know it to be perfectly
harmless to use as it is purely vegetable. It
is within reaoh of all as druggists keep it
for $L It is the prescription and discovery
of the eminent Dr. Greene of 33 W. 14:U
Street, New York, who is so wonderfully
successful in curing all lorms of nervous
and chronic diseases, and who can be con
sulted free, personally or by letter, ir you
will use this great remedy, you will be mada
well and your weak serves become strong
again.
