Another Umpire Wanted. ‘Wasnixgroy, July 17.—President Young of the National Base Ball league has written a letter to the executive committee, request- ing authority to appoint another umpire, making the quota five instead of four. His objoct is to have a new umpire stationed at & central point, where he can be called upon when his services are needed. This action is taken because of the inability of some of the regular staff to officiate at games, and also to do away with a great deal of unneces- sary contention caused by his decisionamong the players who are members of the eont ing clubs. e Piamond Flashes. Doran goes to Toledo. Burns is a first class head-first slider. Powers will do the umpiring this weel. C'-:m:k Sneed is playing good ball for Sioux y. Burdick has not as yet been put in the box at Indianapolis. O'Connell is in no condition to play ball. A little longer rest won’t hurt him a bit. Happy Jack Healy is twirling for the Po- oria (Inter-stata league) club. Harter and Bartson arc ulso with the same team, There is considerable lushing zoing on among the Omahas, which more than auy- thing else accounts for their poor work. The Cowboys play here to-day and to-mor- row and the Sioux Citys are again here Fri- day, Saturday and Sumnday. There will be another big excursion, and if Omaha loses again—well, there's uo telling what will be the result, Burdick, the Omnlm pn.dmr whom Alle- gheny offered to buy for §2,000 recently, was sold to the Indianapolis club for 1,/ Omaha at that time demanded #3000, but very properly President Nimick deciined the offer. By refusing the Allies' first offer the Omaha people just lost $500. Burdick is a fairly good pitcher s loug as wo one is on base. When there is he literally goes to picoes. —Sporting Life.

They approached the island teith caution, and saw a gathering of sixty to sev- enty-five people with @ number of backs aud carriages. They watched two rounds and them tried o work unobserved towards the party, through a rank growth of weeds. S0me of the sports, Lowever, detected the policemen and guve the alarm. The crowd were wild with fear and fled precipitately. In their excitement some of the party plunged into | the water up to their walsts. On arriving at the scene of the fight the officers found & revular ring abvout twelve foct across. Ed Kostors was caught in the act of putting on his shirt, from which fact nei- pals.
