TOMORROW OPENS THE FIGHT. ‘Washington and Baltimore to Mest on the Green Field. The preliminary practice season of the Wash- ington ball team closes with today’s game with the Buffalo Eastern League team. Tomorrow the fight for the pennant opens and on the local stage the Senators will try to knock out their old enemies, the Orioles. McMahon and Rob- m are the Baltimores’ star bat- tery and they will go in tomorrow. President Hanlon with the Orioles will leave Baltimore at noon tomorrow for Washington. ‘The Baltimores will play at Washington Thurs- day and Friday, but on Saturday they will re- turn to Baltimore with the Washington club to play the first championship game of the season on that day at Union Park. The season will be opened by the other clubs as follows: Boston at New York, Brooklyn at Philadelphia, Chicago at Cincinnati, Cleveland at Pittsburg and Louisville at St. Louis. ‘That Washington will win two of the three games there is not much doubt. The local players, individually and collectively, are superior to Baltimore's and there is no reason why the Orioles should get a game. But acci- dents will happen and an inferior club some- times wins. Should the Senators take all three it will give local base ball enthusiaem such a boom as it has not enjoyed for years. The Baltimore Sun says today that Gunson, | who has been released by Hanlon, will probably sign with Washington. He will do nothing of the kind. Washington doesa’t want him. The local clab was after him before Farrell was obtained, but has no use for him now. At any rate it is said that Gunson is ‘so much money on the horses at Gloucester that he is not anxious to piay ball.

An Interesting Point Regarding Licenses to Be Decided. At the meeting of the excise board yesterday afternoon an interesting question concerning the signatures to applications for liquor li- censes came up and was informally discussed. Mr. J. W. Pilling appeared before the board and represented that he was an agent of considerable property in the city and ‘that he was frequently called upon to sign the applications of certain ‘sons for liquor licenses, He desired to impress upon the Commissioners the fact that while he was not opposed to affixing his signature to applications for @ definite period, he was op- posed and did not think he had the right to sign any application tiat would run for an in- definite period. It would virtually be giving the liquor men the control of the property be represented. He said further that wherever the Commissioners found his name affixed to an application for liquor license it was there only for one year. ‘The law of March 3, 1893, regulating the sale nor. says in this connection under section ‘That after such ‘applicant shall have ob- tained and filed with his petition the consent aforesaid and obtained from the board the license required by this act it shall not be necessary for such licensee after the expira- tion of the period for which such license is issued to obtain again such consent for a re- newal of the license unless the majority of the real estate owners and resident housekeepers aforesaid shall petition the board stating in such petition that said bar room is not neces- sary and is objectionable. ‘The Commissioners stated that they were of pinion tbat the applicant could enter into an ‘agreement with the agent or owner of a house whose signature was necessary before a license could issue that he obtained it for one year and that at the expiration of that time the signature was to be considered null and void. It was finally decided to submit the question to the attorney of the District for his opinion and recommendation. “ees Goveryaent Recerprs Topay.—Internal rev- enue, $469,301; customs, $754,568.

It ia New Thought That Queen Natalie ‘May Return to Belgrade. ‘Recent news from little, overturned Servia is to the effect that the bold boy king will have his banished mother, the beautiful and talented Queen Natalie, brought back to her country. Natalie, it will be remembered, was the daugh- ter of a Bussian colonel. When King Milan met her he was twenty-one and she was seventeen. Her beauty had made her famous over theempire. Milan fell desperately in love with her, but his suit found no favor in her eyes. She ined, moreover, set her affections upon a young Russian officer, but her father, fisttered at the prospect of an alliance with royalty, overruled all of her ob- tions.

She made a personal 4 to the czar for assistance, interested herself in the hospitals and the widows and orphans, for all of which Servia almost adored her. Then came the war between Russia and ‘Turkey, in which the latter power was badly Deaten.’ Servia was free and powerful and Natalie had become a mother, the child being christened Alexander. “He was born August 14, All the inborn depravity in Milan's nature now began to develop itself.

When her child became of that age when it was necessary to determine un the method of his education the breach between Milan and his wife became wider. Natalie desired that he should be educated by Russian teachers. The king decided that Austrian tutors should have the care of the young prince. In the bitter quar- rel that followed she reproached her husband with the scandalous life he was leading. This, according to a person, led him to set # trap for his wife. One day, the story goes, ehe received visit from the metropolitan Bishop Michael, who said he came in answer to a note she had sent him. She was indignant and declared that ® conspiracy was on foot to destroy her. The King’s minions were close at hand and the bishop wasarrested for alleged intimacy with the queen. At the same time the king applied to the synod. Natalie, whi ey! against the insult, decided, for the sake ofther child, to prove her innocence, but after this she never lived with him. Milan, in order to offset his own scandalous record, with the help of his minions, charged his wife with infidelity. Finally, in the spring of 1887, after hearing that the king had openly accused ber of improper relations with M. Ristacs, a Servian diplomat devoted to Russian interests, she took the boy Alexander with her and fled from Belgrade to Russia, where King Milan's agents tried to kidnap the child. ‘The king managed to obtain a divorce through the metropolitan Theodosius, an aged prelate who has since retired to a monastery. Bismarck, anxious to please Austria, finally compelled her to surrender the child, after which Milan ab cated and had the boy crowned, providing the eame time a regency until he should become of age. Milan was smart enough to make his terms before he quit the throne. He did not abdi- cate until he had been granted 2,000,000 francs to wipe out his debts. The Servians were so glad to get rid of him that they jumped at the bargain. He did not leave, however, till some six months, and when he had spent every cent of his 2,000,000 he drifted back to Belgrade, where he intrigued against his own son. ‘The Servians soon grasped the situation and asked him how much he would take to get out. His majesty replied that he wouid go for a mil- lion. They gave him his million on condition that he would leave politics alone, and he departed. But ere another year had passed Milan came to the conclusion that he could not live without seeing his dear son. “All right,” replied the Servian regents, “‘we will send your son to Paris for a month. This did not suit King Milan. He asked per- mission to regain his Servian property, which had been seized by the regents as @ guaranty to his good behavior. The regents hesi- tated, but at last consented. These brought in two more millions, which he has since squandered. Then he ‘appealed to the regents for a further sum of four millions. In exchange for his promise not to cross the Servian frontier and his abandonment of all his private and public rights in the country, even to his citizenship, they expressed. willing- ness to pay him the monev. But before he gota chance to collect it his creditors pounced down on the king. They saw that he had come to the end of his resources and that his ex-subjects would do no more for him. ‘They attached the money. Since then there has been éome talk of lie, and suggested that an effort would be made to the decree of divorce set aside. Nothing came of it, however, and it is not thought the new turn of affairs ‘will such @ recon- ciliation any more probable. ——+e- ‘Congressman Wilson's Cool Reception. From the Chicago Herald. A few days ago Congressman William L. Wilson of West Virginia was a caller at the De- partment of Justice.

Mr. Wilson took a chair near the door and seated himself until the Attorney General might finish. Finally Mr. Olney looked up. “How did you get in here?” he asked, rather pertinently. “I came in through the Congressman somewhat net! “Messenger!” shouted Mr. Olney. ‘come here.” As the colored messenger approached the Attorney General continued: “Didn't I tell you not to admit anybody without first bring- ing in the caller's card and ascertaining whether I wanted to see him?” “Yes, sab,” said the messenger, “‘but Mr. Wilson’ am’ membah of Congress and I thought” At this juncture Mr. Wilson arose and ex- plaining that his presence did not seem to be Tequired, bade. the Attorney General a polite “good morning” and walked out. Whether Mr. Olney merely intended to discipline the doorkeeper or to eject him from the room Mr. Wilson bas not yet taken the pains to ascertain.

Many railways will be shown in miniature, especially those which wind around moun- tains, across deep valleys on high bridges or have other unusual features of construction. ‘The Nicaragua canal, or its route, will be shown complete in » plaster of paris model thirty feet long, the country through which it passes ap- pearing in relief. About half of Lake Nicar- ‘agua is outlined and all of the San Juan river that lies in the course of the canal. stream is more than 1,000 feet wide, and when the pro} draws are constructed vast ex- tents of country will be flooded. The laker, the artificial ponds and the rivers will all be filled with water which will be at rest or mov- ing asin natare. The supply will come from the hundreds of tiny streams that mark the course of real rivers flowing down the moun- tain sides or through the valleys. The source of these streams will be an almost invisible jet of water rising from the earth through « hole so small that the point of « pin will hardly enter it, like the veritable spring at the head of the Red river. The rivulets meet and combine into the larger streams, which create at last the one which flows into the ocean. The larger rivers will have miniature ships floating on their surface and the dams and locks of the canal will all be in working order. Land transportation will be more satisfac- torily illustrated. Complete trains with loco- motive attached will be found on the tracks in the annex to this building, and there will be some surprises even for those who think they know a good deal about the speed and the con- veniences of railway travel. AN ENGLISH RAILWAY EXHIBIT. At present the finest exhibit in this line has come from England. A complete train as run on the London and Northwestern railway is in place. A single glance is sufficient to show the reasonableness of the claim that better time can be made with this train than with any that | ounds along over an American roadbed. The | Baye cokeas ct thn engine ocr taasee teal seven feet in diameter and the cars have light appearance which suggests ease in hauling. An engine fresh from the brain of the Eng- lish inventor stands near this train, though not belonging to the same company. The drive wheels are seven and one-half feet in diameter and there are two sets of them, operated by two sets of cylinders, one set placed at the side, as usual, and ‘the other beneath the boiler near the forward trucks. The boiler has more than 2,000 square feet of surface, ob- tained by placing it within the firebox, or the firebox within the boiler; it makes no differ- ence which way it is stated, the inventor says, This leviathan of a locomotive weighs sixty tons and is thirteen and one-half feet high to | the top of the smokestack; it is eight and one- half feet to the center of gravity. One hun- dred miles an hour will be only a moderate gait for this machine, it is claimed. cloner ot oan Troubles of the Telephone. Kansas City Times. Acertain young man of former bibulous tendencies, but who has kept the pledge for the Past seven months, had this wail to make last night: Forth a Generous Response. From the Kansas City Times “Great weather for ducks,” gloomily re- marked the erstwhile bibulous young man. con- cerning whom anecdotes have previously been given in this column. He gazed dreamily through a window at the drizzling rain. “I bad a friend call me up by telephone this afternoon and be said: “My boy, I'm sorry you've stepped over the traces again. Can't I do something for you? Come over and let us have a rood talk together. I think it will do you good."” The young man groaned. “That's the way it is when you've got a reputation, I told my friend that I was still standing by my pledge, but he answered angrily: ‘Its the same old story and I'm out of patience with you. You oughtn't to be let loose on the streets without a muzzle. Not content with your own degradation, you are actually lending countenance to an organiza- tion gotten up with the intention of fostering and promoting the drink habit!’ I couldn't understand what he meant until I heard later that I had been elected a member of a bowling club and the fact had been chronicled without comment in a daily paper. “I get it pretty hard from both sides. One of luck story and every indication that he had freely and without reserve associated himself with numerous liquor interests. Did you ever have a bard-luck story unfolded to you ina weome, graveyard style? Well, his was the ye having tough luck,” he said. ‘Went bunting yesterday on Bean inke. Saw nothing all day jong until about 5in the even- ing. Then suddenly a flock of wild ducks whirred over me. They were #0 thick that they almost darkened the sky. I was so «ur prised I didn’t shoot until the last of the flock ‘Was passing and then I gota sort of a sideway shot, but I turned loose both barrels. * ‘Did you hit ‘em?’ I asked. “ “Hit ‘em! I should feet off of about 200 of ‘em ter yellow around my boat, on like nothing had happened! Just my Inck anyway. Say, you're doin’ w Fou chopped off? Haven't got 80 c's concealed about rou, have you?" “ ‘Yes; what do you want with that amount?” “ ‘Buy a ticket back to Bean lake. You see those ducks will miss their fect the first time they try to roost and will turn back. If I get the same kind of aline on the front rank of that ficek I did on the rear I'll stock the Kansas City market with headless duck ~Talk about hard-luck stories! That one won the 80 cents.” —-2-___ Sure of a Holiday. From Texas Siftines. Jimmy—‘Where are you going today? Let's go skating.

GRAND NATIONAL PRIZE of 16,600f, “Yesterday evening I called up by telephone 8 livery stable with which I had been doing business for four years past and asked for a doub‘e-seated rig to be sent to my address, as I intended to take some friends out driving. The wires must have been crossed, for there was a great buzzing in the telephone, and after sev- eral attempts to make myself understood and get a reply I managed to gather this response from the buzzing wire: ““Wn-a-a-t’s that? B-z-z-2. Broke over— bz-2-z again haven't you, 2zzz Billie’ ***No, L haven't,’ I replied warmly. ‘Haven't taken a drop for ‘seven months.’ It took me several minutes to make this clearly under- stood, so badly was the wire buzzing. ““S no zzz go,’ was the answer i got. ‘It’s the old story raz biz. ° © © can't got rig * * * toofull * zzzz * * smash it up * * if did.” “Now, the liveryman was sober, and I knew it, though his talk sounded grogey over the wire—for he never took a drop in his life; and I was sober, but he wouldn't have believed it had affidavits been produced to that effect without seeing me. “What's in a name?’ Well! Irelate this incident that it may do some one good by pondering over it.”” +o A Predicament. From the Chicago News-Record.
