Sit BASE BALL IS WANTED ! Bunco Games Must be Left to the Fakirs and Not Dragged Into the League Series. The Pottsville base ball management received a set-back last night which must have unstrung its nerves. The directors of tho State baseball league met ut Ilntle- ton and decided that the vacancy created by the dlsbnndment of the Easton club Bhall be filled by the admlstlon of the iVshland club. This action of the directors will be en dorsed by every admirer of honest and legitimate sport, although It may be ex Dected that the howls of the Pottsville management win rise to tne neaveus over tne uecision. There has been bitter rivalry between the Pottsville and Heading clubs for first place in the second series of the State eagne cames and Manager Zerr. of the Headings, hos been charged with havlnc re-organized and kept the Enston chit lone enough in tne race to trivet Uc Head ings an advantage over the Pottsville club. The scheme never dawned upon tne inner until .err uau gained tne au vantage and thrown his tools awav. When it did appreciate the situation the 1'ottsvllle management. nntwlth. standing it denounced Zerr's tactics as "scurvy," stepped into tne tracK tne Reading man abandoned and proceeded to do a "scurvy" business by attempting to get the Mahanoy City club into the league as tne successor 01 tne fusion club. Tho obiect was nlalu enough to any ob- server and the Pottsville management did nnt hesitate to declare that the Alahanov City club would be managed by a" player of the Pottsville club and the games would be so manipulated that the latter club should gain an advantage to counter act that secured by Zerr's trick. All this was cut and dried without con sulting the welfare of the league, or any of the clubs other than Pottsville. It seemed smooth sailing until some of the other managers, among them Mr, Brennan, of the sahenandooh club, got to the meeting at Hazleton last night and read the riot act to Secretary Diddlebock. These managers argued that to allow the Pottsville scheme to go through would destroy the confidence of the nubile In the State league came and If it was desirous that the Mahanoy Valley should have another representative in the league some disinterested club should bo selected. The argument prevailed and it was decided that Mahanoy City be barred out ami tne Asmnnu cmo become tne successor of the Easton club. The Ashlands take the Easton franchise at once and If it can get a club ready in time win piay tne iirst game at uarris burg to-morrow. It will have no league names at home: as they are all scheduled for Harrisburg, Lancaster, Pottsville and Iteading. and the last game of the second series is scheduled for the 13th inst. The championship season ends on the 20th Inst, DOWN AGAIN. The Shenandoah Club Falls an Easy Victim at Lancaster. In spite of the easy manner In which defeated the Lancasters here on Sunday last the Shenandoah club fell easy vic tims before the same club at Lancaster yesterday, although the defeated team distinguished Itself by two doubles and a triple play on record, Stewart, well and Mvers figuring in the latter plav.

Atfw wnsman who has been figuring the patronage o the Lateslde Electric Hall way says that If that comDany would droD the fare to Ave cents between Maha noy City and Shenandoah the trnilic on the line would double. It would not do any harm to experiment on the entrees tion, nut i tear tne company ib nearuiy distrusted with exneriments. Somebody suggested a few weeks ago that by making attractions at Columbia Park tho receipts or tne road could bo considerably in creased. Tho comDany secured a minstrel troupe and spent considerable money in advertising. Result : Eleven-twelfths of the people walked out to the nark, en joyed the entertainment und the hop that followed, and then walked hjine. Even the cost of the dancing music did not Beem to toucn their minus. There is a crossing at the corner of Em' erick and Coal streets which Is a menace to people who are obliged to drive over it.

Being of the latter type It is necessary that placards shall be displayed on houses where the disease exists to pre vent Indiscriminate visits, but funerals and other arrangements are notBtibiect the rules applying to contagious diseases, All's Well That Ends Well.

DIVIDE THE TOWN WARDS An Old Proposition Revived Again With Suggestions. OBJECT OF A DIVISION ! Can be Accomplished by Committees of Bolh Parties Gettlnp Together. Lines Suggested. Tho subject of dividing the wards of this borough is again lloatiug to tho sur face, but whllo many exhibit a will to take hold of the proposition none seem able to find a way by which to put It into operation. It Is impossible, it appears, for either party to divide the borough into more wards on a partisan basis, so tho next best thing for those in favor of a division Is to try and devise some plan for division on a mutual oasis. It has been suggested that five Demo crats and five Republicans, one of each party from each of the five wards, be selected as a committee to discuss the project and como to soma amicable un derstanding. tiio ouject oi tne division la to so divido the wards as to make the work of tho election ofllcers lighter and do away with the tedious labors which fall upon the shoulders of all concerned at election time. The population in some of the wards has increased so much of late that it Is hard to find men qualified for the position of election officer who will serve. They are opposed to sitting at a poll from soveu o'clock ou the morning of election day until two and three o'clock in the morning oi tne loiiowlng day lor tne nlltnnp. .cMM, .1... In.- nlUm. r,.1 .... ono with a knowledge of the labors can uiame tnem. It Is proposed to divido tho First ward. making Centre street the dividing line : nnd the Second and Third wards with the same Btreet as the dividing line: the Fourth ward divided by Poplorstroot and the Fifth ward bv Llovd. j gentleman who nas neen uguring on this basis says it would make tho First. Second, Seventh, Ninth and Tenth wards democratic; tuo i'ourtn, ntn and bixtu Republican, and tho Third and Eighth doubtful, although tho Eighth ward would probably prove Republican. Something must be done very soon as the number of voters Is steadily and greatly increasing. On the basis above suggested very little difficulty should be experienced in arriving ot a conclusion. If a committee could reach this stage it could then agree upon a plon to submit to tne court and tne whole matter could be odlnsted within a very short time. The gentleman who urges the nnnoint- ment of the committee has also suggested that the following gentlemen serve hs the Republican representatives: Frank Reese, first wnru; x. J. navies, r-econd ward A. U. Lamb. Third ward : George Lorah Fourth ward; and J. L. Hassler, Fifth ward. Mrs. Bridgemnn. R. C. M.. teaches violin Onecioitv') cello and piano.

It is therefore essential that tho people shall be as eco nomical as possible in using tho water during the few hours it Is turned on. The water company has placed another stop in tuo west centre street main, so that the supply may bo better restricted. No de pendence can be placed upon tho public waterworks. While work fortheirconiple tion is progressing favorably a supply from that source cannot be oxnected for at least several months.
