UKDAY BASEBALL Local Patron Makes a Plea for the Home Club to Start It IG SCULLING EACE SUGGESTED. i Offer to Match Eeillj, of This Citj, to TTTrestle Anybody at Weight. ESECAL SPORTING NEWS OF TQE DAT Considerable interest has already been oused in local baseball circles by the in mation made in this paper yesterday to the Feet that the local ball clnb is likely to lay Sunday games away irom home. Ee irding the question the following commn ication was received at this office last even ig. It is from a well-known and imfluen al base ball patron, and is as follows: Sporting Editor Dispatch: "I notice In to-aay's local papers that lat there is a, great probability of the local lseball team playing Sunday games when (ray from home next season. I came to lis conclusion because Mr. Temple de ares enrahatically that he does not mean in any way interiere with the policy of le club next year, and that President uckenberger is to be the absolute ruling ower. "The fact that Mr. Buckenberger is to be iTen sole power to run the affairs of the ,ub means that the team will play games a Sunday when away from home. If this i the intention of Mr. Buckenburjrer in iv estimation he is a wise man. Doubtless iew people prompted by a mock-moral pint will lift up their hands against the love, but the natrons ot the club, gener lly speaking, will see the wisdom of the .ep. "It will be foolishness on the part of the cal clnb to remain in this absurd "12-club .eaque and not participate in the most rofitable features of it, viz., the receipts of unday games at Chicago during the Vorld's Fair. In my way of thinking bere is no more harm in actually taking art in Sunday games than in aiding other ;ams to do it. There is an act of foolish ess in such a course, however, Us the club aat does not take part in the games aud bare the receipts, but only helps others to o so by helping to maintain the League, is financial loser. It Is no better ofl in rinciple either. If there is to be a base all club in Pittsburg next year its ruling ower should by all means take part in the unday games wherever it can be done or Ise leave the League entirely. It seems to le that this 12-club arrangement is drag ing baseball trom bad to worse. "I also notice that the magnates of the hicajo club have made a very pleas nt arrangement wnereby the team can play anday ball and Mr. "Spalding will have othing to do with it. This is sensible. ,et Pittsburgers do likewise. "I withhold my name for personal easons. I am, lion ever, an old and en husiastic patron of baseball; one who elieves in the verv best kind of baseball t that Air Old Pathos; " The above opinions cannot iailtobe inter sting to patrons of the national game, 'here is much common sense in them. It ems certain that the 12-club League will Imost to a club participate in Sunday ames, now that the Chicago club has lelded and also that the Pittsburg club is lmost sure to concede the point. THE TALE CBEW. in Alamlnnm Shell May Be Ordered for Them to Bow In. Xrw Hayzs, Com, Dec. IS "Bob" Cook, ao lamous rowing coach spent yesterday in ew Haven with Captain Ives, of the Yale 'niversity crew. He inspected the new ymnasium, and the new rowing tanks in articular, and suggested several minor nprovements in the arrangement. The irl.3 will not be ready lor use until alter mlstmas. The rcDort that an aluminum shell Is be lg bnilt in Philadelphia for the Cornell rew has set Yale rowing men to thinking, atananb, the Philadelphia boat builder, lade an aluminum sinsle shell last year nd it turned out such a succes in strength nd marvelous lightness that Cornell cave mi an order for n eirht-oared shell, which lie builder guarantees will be ten seconds aster per mile than a paper or cedar boat. It will be constructed wholly ot aluminum ne-rwenMeth ol an Inch In thickness, at a ost of $500, no more than a paper boat. Urvard has ordered ono of these bliells, and his means that Yale will have to follow nt, if the metal boat docs half what is iromised for it. Captain Ives, of Yale, has done nothing bout tne matter, but as Harvard has or lered n. shell lie will look into the scheme rithout much loss of time. He will go to hiladelnhia during the Christmas vaca ion, and, with "Bob" Cook's counsel, see vhat there U in it. Koseis, or the Yule iavy, has given an order to Waters, ot Troy, or a paper shell exactly on the model of he boat which was used last July at Xew .ondon. THE SCDLLIKS CHAMPIONSHIP. dr. St. Jolin TaUts About a Big Bace for the Title. OnnxiA,Dec 18. Mr. J. A. St. John, of St. -onis, and formerly backer of Jake Gau taur, writes on December 10 congratulating he latter on the stand he took in regard to be championship question. Mr. St. John ms just sold out his type foundry, and hav ng lots ol time on his hands just now, hlnks he cannot do bettor than devote a ittle of it to rowing. Ho continues: "I think interest could be revived in row ng next season ir three championship races an be arranged, single scull, s.iy half mile traight away, ono mile with turn and threo nile with turn. My idea would bo to offer a mndsome gold medal for each event, rjro riaed there be three or more competitors In ch race; the races all to be sweepstakes, acli man to put in eitner $250 or $500 for ach race, the second man to s-ave his entry. Let me know what you think of it. I will supply the medals; the winner of any medal will nave to accept a challenge if made ith proper deposit. In this way there will be a 'hatice for different men, and it would be card to name the winner of the hair mile 'haraplonshlp: the mile is by no means a sure thing, but, of course, the longer dis tance, three miles, would bo between your elf Teemerand Hanlun. The races would be rowed on thice diffeiont days, and would ac attractive if propeily managed. You nisht conler with the scullers and get the idea started as early as possible, and see if -owing can't be brought up again. I will rladly help all I can." Dick Bnrge TVas Beaten.

Tne Heroine of a Play Stabs the Villain Sore Enoaglu ELCrXtlLIoDnc. 18. Special Hamp shire is considerably excited over the un intentional stabbing of a young man there Friday evening. Hampshire bas an ama teur diamatic club, and on that occasion they presented the play, "After Ten Years." Hiss Bosa Schultz,a school teacher who was cast as the heroine, stabs the villain to the heart. Miss Schultz was provided with a real dagger, which it was customary to encase in a tin sheath, but this time the sheath was forgotten aud the young lady, carried away with her part, plunged the dagger into the man's breast. Xbe scene was very realistic, but the voung man did not arise when the curtain iell, and an investigation proved that he was seriously wounded. The dagger en tered between the second aud third, ribs and narrowly escaped the heart. Miss Schultzfainted, as did several other women, and the wildestconfusion prevailed. Jones before the act told Miss Schultz to strike hard and make the scene as realistic as pos sible. The wounded man will probably re- coyer. I Latest U. S.
