BASEBALL COMMENT.

rhere Will Be No Baseball War Kext Tear, and the Game Will Be The baseball season of the National leasue has closed with the remarkably ex iting series for the Temple cup between the RfklHmnra nhnmnions and the New Yorks, though up to tho very last live minutes it looked as If this series would not be nlavod at all. Four or five players bn the Baltimore team, led on by the ad vice of mends who control tnem, reiusea to abide by the rules laid down by the League to govern these games. This minority held out so long against the desiies 31 Manager Hanion, uaptam nooinson and the majority of the champions that the result was almost an unsportsmanlike flunk on the part of the winners of the pennant. The two teams met for their first game in Baltimore on Oct. 4, and until both nines were lined up before 12,000 spectators that afternoon the Baltimore minori C.

TEMPLE, THE CUP DONOR. ty, headed by Third Baseman McGraw, held out for an equal division of the re ceipts, which was in direct oppostion to the reauirements under which the cup was given, whereby the winners of the series should get 65 per cent and the losers only 35 per cent. At this last moment captain waru won by a neat coup. President N. E.

Young was on the ground. Ward went to Young formally demanded the cup unless the Baltimores would play under the conditions specified. He then told Captain Robinson that the New Yorks would play only that one game (so as not to disap ooint tne assemrjiua unless nie games were played for the Temple cup and would not even play that one until the umpires should announce to the crown that it was merely nn exhibition game. This niece of tactics won, for the Balti more players had another meeting near third base, and pressure was brought to bear until Mcliraw surrendered, captain Robinson and the umpires then announced that tho cames were for the Temple cup, and the crowd cheered to show its ap oroval. Tho League will at its annual meeting enact such laws as shall prevent any one or more players irora endangering tho series at tne cna oi nnotner season.

iur the Tcmnlo cud eames hereafter will be come as much a part of tho National league championship as the regularly scheduled games, because the League, in accepting tho cup, embodied tho past season's games in its yearly programme and gavfi them Its sanction ana protection. Baltimore's reception of her new chain makes another record in the na tional game. Nothing like it is known in baseball history. When tne returned after their last western trip with tho pennant won, the city poured its pop ulncc upon the streets to receive them. Buildings were gayly decorated with the Oriole colors black and yellow Sixty thousand people crowded the streets along the lino of their triumphal march, cheering the players wildly.

A reception at the armory loiioweu, wncrc ior iv.o wurs the men, women and children filed past merely to look at the base ball heroes, and it was necessary to place ropes on each side of tho boys to prevent the well meaning rooters from shaking hands with the winning team and thereby probably doing the latter an injury. A banquet followed at which 400 promi nent citizens sat down with the players to fete and toast them. After the banquet came two big benefit receptions at tho theaters. Citizens came forward, with presents of checks, diamonds and clothes for their respective favorites on the nine In spite of all this McGraw and his small following insisted on depriving Baltimore peoplo of a chance to see tho Tomplo cup series. Luckily tho better disposed and more intelligent members of the team, headed by Manager iianion ana Robinson, came out ahead.

Tho baseball season of 1894 will go down upon tho sporting chronicles as one of tho most prosperous sinco tho game became and them la ronson to believe that next year will not show a decline in tho interest. There has beon considerable gossip about an alleged opposition organization to tho National league. The fact is that no opposition of an inimical kind can secure the necessary financial support to put teams in tho field. Tho folly of 1884, 1800 and 1801 will scarcely bo repeated in 1805 or in any future year. for their work in winning the pennant.

They beat the flag at tho start and were never headed out once anu men oniy ior a moment as tho Bostons got their noso an inch in front. The New York Giants also mado a great fight, and but for a very poor start they should have been noso and nose witn mo passed. The Bostons surprised everybody by turning up quitters as soon as they were headed for second place. Before an u.A«nn hen ins there will be bis changes in all the teams, with possibly the exception of the New Yorks and Balti mores. Mile taster nwu POSSibly tWO.

It IS UOUOWUi woeimr nicjr ri.ht. man While in Chicago recently I met Harry Wright and from him learned a bit of news that will correct baseball history In all accounts of tho old Cln ctnanti Red Stockings' remarkable chain Af clayed from Sep 1S08, to Juno ism, wiwwii WvtoSsriss, Mi MM fMBt. The tls (kawM Haymaker gema at Cincinnati, wherein tho Haymakers loft the field, refusing to a decision by Umpire Brockway. This Bat always neen puouanea as a tie. nawrr save he has the official boon at home, and on the bottom of the score is indorsed words: "Forfeited to the Cincin by a score of 0 to 0." Brockway, who lives at Cincinnati, says he remembers well that he so decided the same the minute the Haymakers left the field.

So that famous chain of must have one more added. It is hard on the baseball crank to wait In patience from October till April with out rood ior nis soui to fatten on. during the long winter months he can fig ure a little on how his favorites are sure to win next year's pennant. In that way ne wui manage to pun tnrougn. O.

P. CayloR. Bow Corbett and Flttsii Fitzsimmons said the other day that he would fight Corbett at 160 pounds, but the chances are that 170 would be nearer the mark, and with Corbett at 188 he would have 18 pounds to his credit, not 80, as even Corbett appears to have thought. The following measurements tne xorK sun are this time: Forearm Corbett. Weight 188 Height ft.

i Reach Chest 88 Waist 33 Thigh 21 Calf 14 UH 170 The flcht will nrobablv come off in Ni Orleans. It will attract thousands of men and may break all records on the size of the gate receipts. Fitzsimmons is so anxious to make the fight a certainty that he Is willing to mate anytnmg line noerai concessions in every respect, and Corbett, as champion, will not lose many tricks. 3ver, in dictating terms, it is possi ele that the winner may take the entire uurso and stake. That will depend on (JorDctt.

As creat catties nave resuiieu in tho last few years the betting on this contest should not be overwhelmingly in favor of Corbett. Corbett should win this battle, which will be one of the greatest ever fought. It has been argued all along that (Jorbett would derivo no credit irora defeating Fitzsimmons, but as a matter tact their measurements are noi, so The Great Pacer Joe Patchen. About the only formidable rival Robert J. 2:01 the kins of all pacers and har ness horses, has found on the turf this season is the black Missouri stallion Joe Patchen.

The champion gelding and the stallion met In a ereat match race in dianaDolis on Sent. 6 for a purse of $5,000. It proved the fastest race ever paced or trotted in the world's history. Kouert took the first heat in with Patchen but a length behind. The second heat broke the world's pacing record, Patchen forcing his great rival to Btep a mile in the unprecedented time of 20234 in order to win.

At the finish Patchen wa one quarter of a second behind, and he consequently negotiated the distance in Kouert also captured tne tnira JOE PATCHEN. heat in with the black stallion but a short length behind. This great performance stamped Joe Patchen as tho fastest racing pacer on the turf, Robert excepted. Thus lar 'atcnen nas not provea so iast a tilt with time as he has in a race, and his best mile against time is 2:04, made Terro Haute on teopt. 14.

i no same day John R. Gentry, a rival pacing stallion, stepped a mile in 2 thus estab lishing a new world pacing recoru ior stallions in Dlace of the of Direct, made 8. 18UB. but many norsemen believe that Patchen could again defeat Gentry in a race, as he did in the 2:12 class In Buffalo on Aug. 11.

Patchen is a son of Fatchen wukcs, who had a trotting record of and of Josephine i'oung, by Joe Young, whose sire was btar of tno west. De Koven and Smith's Latest Opera. "Rob Roy, De Koven and Smith's latest opera, was produced recently by tho Fred C. Whitney Opera company. It is said it eclipses 'Robin Hood." If so, it will make a fortune for all concerned.

The first night audience called Manager Whitney, De Koven and Smith, Stage Manager Max Freeman and Musical Director De Novellis and the principals repeatedly before tho curtain. The music is remarkable for spontaneity and piquancy. It includes a rustic Scotch glee, a toast sung by Rob Roy and a dashing cavalier's song, "Boots and Saddles." The plot is intelligible, so that tho opera without any music would bo interesting as a play. This at least is a novelty in the light opera line. There is neither a maypole, a village screen nor a colored ballroom sceno Kob Koy." Tho scenery, representing Scotland, Is picturesque in the extreme.

A spectacular effect is the gathering of the clans. The principal highland families enter with pipes blowing and banners fly ing, each clan singing a song oi its own. this scene De Koven nas introduced Scotch national airs, just as Sir Arthur Sullivan put a march in tho "Mi kado." The cast seems William Pructto in the titlo role, Baron Berthold, Richard F. Carroll, Lizzie MacNichcI, Juliette Cordon, Anna O'Kcefo, Harry Par ker, Hugh Cholvers and Joseph Herbert.

John D. Rockefeller, the millionaire Standard Oil magnate, has become a thor oughly practical bicyclist, ft is ooconil towira nunc. Two statu claim the birthplace of Coio aelJamea Bowie Tennessee and end the question baa never been definitely settled, but he gave tho name to a weapon as ueoaiy at any mat naa ever ten forged from steel. Shortly after Louisiana became a state the old Spanish and French records created a great oeai oi trouble, it frequently nap pened that a planter who had taken up a large tract of land and fairly opened It out as a plantation would learn that it was claimed by some one under an old colonial grant. James Bowie was a very frequent claimant under these old laws, savs a Chi cago Times writer.

Several capitalists of the time had sent him to Havana, where the old papers of tho Spanish colony of Louisiana were kept, and caused careful transcripts of them to be made. They appointed as their agent to put them in possession of tiicse properties James Bowie. In these early days It did not at any time take much provocation to bring on "a personal encounter," as a fight to the death was euphoniously entitled. A man who had been to tho trouble of opening un an only to find it claimed by a lot of people he did not know was generally pretty ready to fight for it, whether a fight WOUiu seme tne question or uui. The consequence of this state of things was that James Bowie and bis two brothers, Stephen and Rezin Bowie, had on band almost constantly some 6orc oi "aim culty" that had to bo fought out with deadly weapons.

This was before the days when tne percussion cap was in general use, and tho smaller pistols of tho period were flintlocks, inconvenient to carry and not very reliable. So tho kntfe had to be used when one wanted a really trusted weapon. Mr. Bowie worked out with a pocketknife and shinglo his idea of a weapon that would bo about the proper thing for the business he had in hand, and it was made by the local blacksmith at Shreveport, after this model, which he carried ior several years. About 1S30, however, he heard of a New Orleans cutler, a Spaniard named Pedro, who was making some knives of a wonderful kind and temper.

They could be driven through a silver dollar without damage to point or edge. Mr. Bowie at once availed himself of tho professional services of this artist, who mado him a knife which was a marvel of temper and COLONEL BOWIE PRESERVES ORDER. beauty. The blade was 9 inches long, and blado and handle together measured 15 inches.

Ho used this weapon in 19 en counters, and it was In his stmening nana when, with six dead Mexicans about him, showing the evidence of bis fatal skill, he as found aeaa at tne Aiamo. Bowie's method of using the knife was le ncculiar to himself. He did not hold it in his hand with tho long point down ward, but grasped the handle as a swords would grasp tho nut oi ins sworn. He always struck at the neck of his man and aimed for tho jugular and seldom missed his coup. In tho most famous of his battles the one fought on Natchez island, an island in tho Mississippi river almost opposite the city of ''Natchez he two men's heads almost on, giving each only a single sweeping blow.

Ho possessed enormous physical strength for his size and was as quick ancJ lithe as a wildcat and as game He a terror to all the "hard cases' from Louisville to New Orleans. In 1836 the Methodists about Churcli Hill, Miss, were holding their annual meeting. They had been a good deal disturbed by the crews of rough flatboatmen, a large number of whose boats were lying in the river below the town.

One morn ing after service was ended a number of the men held a meeting to decide upon the measures to abate this trouble. Among them the parson, who was a newcomer, noticed a small man whose only peculiar ity was a pair of steely, blue ringed eyes eyes like a cat. "I will attend the services tonight, gentlemen," he said in a low, gentle voice, "and will help you to settle any difficulty that may occur. seemed very satisfactory to those present, but the clergyman somehow forgot to asK who ho was. The evening service had begun.

Just as tho preacher was about giving out the second hymn a big Kentucky flatboatman staggered up in front of the pulpit and gave a Choctaw warwhoop. In a second the little man had him by the collar with bis left hand, and in his right had a knife, with its point against the boatman's brawny throat. "If you say anothcrword or mako tho slightest noise, by I'll drive this knife through your neck from ear to earl" The big man trembled like a i leaf and silently took a seat, while the other, putting his knifo out of sight, joined with great fervor in the singing of the hymn. There was never a quieter meeting held than that was thereafter. "Who was the gentleman who so speedily settled the difficulty tonight?" asked the minister when the service was ended.

"Don't you know''" his friend replied. "Thnt was James Bowio."
