President Hewett made quick work with the boycott which the Federation of Labor placed on him for the employment of non-union men at Tuesday night’s meeting, and this morning he announced that everything was lovely and the boycott was raised. At the park things look very business-like. All of thecolumns for the grand stand are up, the floor joists in place in many parts, and. in fact, the frame work nearly completed. Today's work will make a great difference in the appearance of the stand, and it will be very nearly, if not quite, ready for tomorrow's name.

The east fence was nearly toppled over by the severe winds of Friday and Satur- day and has had to be braced in order to pre- vent its falling. The grounds will have a gen- tle decline from the north to the sonth, so that the alley from second to third base will be slightly up hill. This will ainst the base runner who attempts to steal third or who tries to stretch a two-bagger into a three. But it will aid the man going down from first to second base, particularly in getting ready to dive for his slide to the bag. Anetting is to be put upon the right field fence to protect the windows of the cottages on the other side of the alley, and a ball must ass ir of this, which will be five or six feet igh, in order to score a home-run hit. The chances are that there will be fewer home runs made on these grounds than on the old ones. THE PLAYERS’ DRESSING ROOMS are tobe underneath the grand stand in the space left at the corner. This will give a com- modious apartment, from which the men will emerge into the field by a small door under- neath the stand ledge in front.

In the Criminal Court, Chief Justice Bing- ham, yesterday, Alfred Lee, a young colored man, was tried for receiving stolen property— a diamond ring valued at $500, the property of Mrs. Lieut. A. C. Tyler, on March 26 last year. Mr. Mullowney, for the government, said they expected to show that the Tyler house was robbed of $18,000 worth of jewelry by George Parker and that Lee had admitted that he had had the ring, which had not been recovered. Mr. T. C. Taylor, for the defendant, admit- ted that Lee had had the ring, which he. got from James Waters, but denied that he knew that the ring was stolen and asserted that when he learned of the arrest of Waters, fear- ing that the possession of the ring would cause him trouble and not knowing the value of it, he threw it away. Mrs. Tyler testified that all the property had been recovered excepting two rings, one the subject of this charge, and she valued this at over $1,000. It was an emerald surrounded by diamonds. James Waters testified that Parker brought the property to his house; that Lee took a ring id Parker had borrowe ‘ing from him. ‘The ring had a blue set with sets looking like diamonds around it, Lee at the jail admitted that he had thrown two rings overboard be- cause he did not know where they had come from, telling Parker and witness so. He did not remember any conversation with Parker in the presence of Detective Raff. ‘ ‘Mr. Taylor said they did not deny throwing the ring overboard. On cross-examination Waters said he did not know the property was stolen. When Parker took the butidle away he left the ring there and it was on a stand when Lee took it. Witness told him it was Parker's and he said he would take it, as Varker had one of his, and would hold it until Parker returned his, He protested that Lee did not know that the articles were stolen. Detective Raff testified to statements made by Waters as to Lee taking the ring and throw- “~; it overboard. The defendant offered no testimony. claim- ing that there was nothing to answer. The case was, however, argued at some length. The jury failed to agree and were discharged. panne. 5 ston Five Dollars Worth of Fame. Ire Godfrey came here from Pittsburg to traverse our beautiful vistas, see the sights and scalo the heights, While out scaling yesterday | he wandered into the Washington monument and concluded he would go up by forced marches to look at the bric-a-brac and inscrip- tions on the way. He had gone along quietly singing the song the angels sang on Jacob's ladder: “Every Round We Are Getting Higher, Higher,” till he had tread off the first install- ment—280 feet—when he pansed to refresh himself and contemplate fame embalmed in marbie walls, Just then a little devil no bigger. perhaps, than a humming bird, that is supposed to have come in atone of the peep holes, tempted him to inscribe his name on the mar- ble tablets and get into glory bya mere scratch. Butin his case the path of glory led him tothe Police Court, in charge of Fred Stromberger, the elevator conductor, where his name was again recorded and ‘he was charged $5 for matriculation and tolls, Now he opposes the Blair bill and counts education a snare, — A Delaware Re; ican Association.
