Among donations already receive are a lot of shoes from Mr. David F. Weaver, the M street merchant, and some clothing from the Friends’ Society. The latter organiza- tion has taken an active interest in the work, and one of the lady members is de- voting her time to visiting the poor, nurs- a the sick and doing good wherever pos- stble.

Examination of the Clerk’s Books to Be Made—General and Per- sonal News. Evening Star Bureau, No. 529 King street, Bell Telephone, No. 106, ALEXANDRIA, Va., February 1, 1698. As stated in The Star, Mayor Simpson has decided to remove R. Theodore Cook, clerk of the gas, from office on account_of his continued unexplained absence from the elty and the alleged irregularities in his accounts. The mayor has addressed a letter to Mr. Cook directing him to appear at the mayor's office Wednesday at 2 o'clock and show cause why he should not be removed. This letter was left at Mr. Cook’s residence on South Pitt street. At the same time the mayor issued a call to the members of the city council to meet Wednesday night to take action in the matter. ‘There are still many rumors afloat as to Mr. Cook's whereabouts, but he cannot be located, according to the statements of his most intimate friends, although it is stated that an officer of the police force saw a letter from him this morning in which he said he would be in the city Wednesday to face the charge. This ru- mor cannot be verified. It is not believed that any definite ac- tion will be taken lool to a complete examination of Mr. Cook’s accounts until after the meeting of the city council Wed- nesday night. Mr. Harry C. (Roxey) Price has an- nounced himself as a candidate for the office in addition to those already named in The Star. I The city charter @eclares that the clerk of gas “shall report toi:the auditor dally, or whenever the coyectiqn shall amount to $100 or more,” and that he “shall be prohib- ited from keeping the toneys of the city in his hands bey: the time prescribed for the payment ofthe same into the city treasury, and any™viotation of this pro- vision shall subject: hint. to immediate re- moval from office by the mayor or city council of Alexandria.” The state con- stitution, however, provides that city ofM- cers can be removed only by the mayor.

TEAMS THAT ARE STRENGTHENED i Opposed to the Bunt and Tells Why. CURRENT SPORTING NOTES J. Earl Wagner, secretary and treasurer of the Washington base ball club, when asked for an expression of his opinion re- garding the abolition of the “bunt sacri- fice” with runners on the bases, said: “I am opposed to the bunt with men on the bases, for the following reasons: First, % per cent of the base ball patrons throughout the country are opposed to it, and we should yield to their wishes, as they furnish the substantial endowment that keeps the game alive; second, base ball to- day is the only sport where the rules han- dicap the weak and add strength to the strong. by a toleration of the bunt or sacri- fice hit. If this objectionable feature is abolished, mechanical ball players—and 95 Per cent of the players are mechanical ball players—will have an opportunity to be Placed on something like an even footing with the more expert and breiny players. ‘The expert bunters are few—say twenty in the big league. Now, why should we legis- late for the advantage of one-tenth over nine-tenths? It ts neither just nor fair. “If the rule remains as it a good bat- tng, brainy club, made up men who are lreavy on their feet, has no chance against a fair batting team, but faster on their feet. Today there are two A No. 1 third basemen who can play that bag artistical- ly; that ts, handle hard-hit balis and the bunts successfully. Cut out the bunt and such men as Nash, Joyce, Reitz, Hartman and others are just as valuable men to a ball club as Collins, Wallace, McGraw or Irwin. Now, why handicap or drive out of the business such valuable players? ‘ake the pitchers and every close ob- server of the game will agree with me that the number of first-class artists is growing less every year. Why? For the reason that they cannot handle bunt hits, cover first base and watch base runners, study the batsman and receive signals from the catcher with any sort of success. He also is seriously handicapped by the bunt hit. With the bunt hit eliminated it will be seen at the close cf the season, that the clubs will be more closely bunched, and with the schedule, as proposed, and with double umpires we will have this season one of the most exciting and interesting races the game has ever known. “Iam frank to say,” remarked Mr. Wag- ner, “that the rules as they now stand,with our club as now constituted, would be great- ly to our advantage, but that should not be considered. I will support any proposition that seems to be for the general good, and which will make the game more pleasing and popular with our patrons—that will re- strain internal dissensions in the club, and afford every ball player and club an equal chance.” Sizing Up the Team. Mr. Wagner was further asked to give his impression as to how the clubs would stand at the close of the coming playing year. “With reference to that matter,” said he, “it 1s speculation, pure and simple, that all fans indulge in more or less, and a question upon which there is a variety of opinion. Yet I will violate no confidence in registering a guess. I will place in the one, two, three column the following clubs: New York, Baltimore and Boston; in the four, five, six column, Washington, Cin- cinnati, Cleveland; in the seven, eight, nine column, Brooklyn, Chicago, Louis- ville; in the ten, eleven, twelve column, Pittsburg, St. Louis, Philadelphia. As the clubs now stand on paper and what I know of their personnel, I believe I have sized them up about right. Yet in this business, you know, the unexpected fre- quently happens, and I am, of course, lia- ble to be off in my speculation; yet I will let it stand at that. “If the pitching staff of the New York club do as good work next season as they did last they will be right in the push from start to finish. Up to the present time the Boston club has made no material changes in the way of strengthening their team, as have others of its close competitors, and it is questionable whether it can keep up its fast pace of last season. What ef- fect the recent changes in the Baltimore club will have upon their playing ability is problematical. There is no question that it is a strong club and will occupy a prom- inent position in the race. “As to the Washington club, modesty forbids any enthusiastic expression of opinion. You can see where I have placed it. 1 will therefore stand pat on that prop- osition. It will be seen that I do not give Cincinnati as high a standing as it had last year. In coming to this conclusion I do not mean to say that the club has de- teriorated. While I do not believe that the club is any stronger than last season, I am sure that New York and Washing- ton have been materially strengthened. I shall be agreeably surprised if Cleveland gets a higher place than I have given it. Brooklyn, Chicago and Louisville will have a hard fight for seventh, eighth and ninth places. Brooklyn and Louisville have been Strengthened, as they now look on per. Other purchases and deals may ange the situation. Pittsburg, St. Louis and Philadelphia will, in my opinion, have an open field for tail-end disappointments. An Exciting Race Promised. “I predict an exciting and ‘interesting race from start to finish, and believe the season of 1898 will be satisfactory from a financial standpoint. The league meeting will be one of unusual interest and im- portance, as questions of grave importance are to be considered. Contracts will be sent to our players this month for their signatures, and the work of organization will be vigorously prosecuted. Tom Brown has already bookedsome of the most prom- inent minor league clubs for early spring games, so that our fans can get @ line on our new Senatorial phenoms before the big show begins.

Good Work of the Carroll Institute Bowlers. The Carroll Institute bowlers increased their percentage last night on the alleys of the Columbia Athletic Club. Their position is now dangerously near the league ieadera, the Saengerbund team being but a slight distance ahead. By the result of last night's games another strong argument in favor of the proposition to have the total number of pins decide a match was pre- sented, for while the Carrolis won two of the three games, the Columbia bowlers up- set 2,410 pins to 2,387 by their opponents. The decision thus rendered against them 1s conspicuously improper. There were more poodles in last night's match than In any previous bowling event of the season, Deyo, Harlow and Stone each securing a barker. The “find” of the season is undoubtedly young Gorman of the Institute team. His work has been of the strongest sort ever since his introduction to league company and his average last night of 182, with 223 for high game, lead- ing both teams, would be a credit to the oldest hand tn the league. The Carroll: steady advance in percentage since his ap: pearance on the team in itself speaks vol- umes. Columbia had no difficulty whatever in capturing the first event. They secured a slight lead in the opening frame, and, bowi- ing strongly, led by a hundred pins by the fifth inning. They lost some ground in the seventh and eighth, winning out handily, however, by eighty-four pins. The score follo Carroll Institute. St. Sp. {Columbia Athletic Club. fe.| Bt.
