I PLAY BALL. Amateur Baseball Season Opens at Athletic Park Tomorrow. On Saturday the amateur baseball season will open with a flourish of trumpets and music by the band--the Red Men's Band. The Tri-City Baseball League promises the people royal sport, and every nine in the organization say they will give a good account of themselves. The first game on Saturday afternoon will be between Vinton of last year's championship fame, and the new Norfolk and Western nine.

The Vintonites play in their old-time form, and expect to do business from the opening of the league season. On the other hand the Norfolk and Western team is a strong youngster and have demonstrated they know a thing or two about the game, When the fun commences on Saturday afternoon, at Athletic Park, Roanoke's mayor, Joel H. Cutchin, will 1 before the eyes of the astonished lookers, shoot the first ball across the plate preceding such action by a few happy words of felicitation on the opening, of the baseball season. Then the band will play some more and the cry of "batter up" will start the great American game going to the accompaniment of many voices from the grand-stand. The Virginia College girls are expected to be out in full force, at tomorrow's game.

E. McMillan, who was formerly in the employ of the Singer Sewing Machine Company in this city, and who in the summer of 1898 suddenly departed for parts unknown, was arrested in Norfolk yesterday and brought to Roanoke yesterday morning by Detective W. G. Baldwin. McMillan, who was a remarkably clever salesman, had been employed at the time of his defalcations in the capacity of city and country salesman and did much business for the company.

A new manager, Mr. W. C. Bryant, took charge of the office in Roanoke about this period, and prepared to go over the books. McMillan was told to be present on the day in question, but gave an excuse for going home for a short time, promising to appear on time.

"He never came back." Instead he was found later to have hired a horse and buggy and to have driven, to Cloverdale. Here he very generously, presented the entire outfit where he was stopping, and bought a ticket to some point near Buchanan. Here all trace of him was lost. It is believed he went for a while to Baltimore, and later returned to Newport News, where his family are said to be residing at the present time. The warrant served on McMillan charges him with having embezzled $1,069 from the Singer company.

This was made up of small and large amounts collected on machines for which no return was made, McMillan has been looked for by the police in vain, and has long succeeded in eluding capture. He was well known in Roanoke and exceedingly popular with many. THE GROCERY STORE ROW. The trouble which took place at the True Reformers' grocery, over in the Northeast last night between J. M.

Lipscomb, the manager of the store. and W. E. Davis, a colored insurance agent. was aired for several hours in the police court this morning.

Quite a vicious fight appears to have taken place between the men, in which a club and a weighing weight were used. Harris Hoge represented Lipscomb and A. J. Oliver acted for Davis. Judge Bryan decided that there was considerable blame on both sides, but finally fined Davis $5 for his part in the affair.

THE DUST PLAGUE.
