GOOD PfiACTICE WORK

INDICATIONS OF AS EXTRA STROXG MASEBALL TEAM. Blots Like a Stoae Wall at First and JlcCormick - at Second Seem Equally a Good. All the members of the baseball club are here now except Newell, who is expected to arrive on an early train this morning in time for the day's practice. The men spent yesterday; at the park in practice. From the work done by "the men it seems quite evident that Indianapolis will not be much behind in the pennant race; in fact, an Impartial judge would mark them down as winners. All the men were given turns at various kinds of work. Captain Motz stood like a stone wall at the right-hand corner of the diamond. His long rest during the winter months does not seem to have affected him In the least. He was as limber and agile as if he had been playing for a month, when in fact it was only his second day at practice. McCorm'ck vas on second for a while and showed remarkable strength In that position. He was quick and active and showed what may be expected of him when balls must be caught. Henry Is too well known as the old right fielder to need any introduction to the Indianapolis rooter. Suffice it to say that he has lost none Of his old grit and vigor, and promises better work this year than last. He is in faster company, and his work Indicates that he will be near the front rank when his average is made known. Wood and McFarland will give the rooters no chance to object to their playing. McFarland handles the ball from the plate to second as though the entire game depended upon that particular play, and often times it will so happen. Wood is not lagging in this regard, and in base running he showed an activity yesterday that will make the catchers of the opposing teams hump themselves to get the ball to second in time to do any good. President Watkins said yesterday that he did not think his judgment in selecting Fisher had proved bad. He is very speedy and puts the ball where it will puzzle many old players to find it. The first game of the season will be played Saturday with the Light Artillery team. The Artillery boys have been practicing every day, and think they will give the professionals a hard tussle. The following Is the batting order and positions of the men who will play for the league team: Henry, c. f.; McCarthy, 1. f.; Nieol. r. f.; Motz, lb; Wood, c. ; Newell, s. s. ; Roat, Sb; Glfford, 2b: Pastorius and Sonier, p. The work on the grand stand is rapidly progressing. A new ticket office and gates have been built. They are arranged in such a manner that there will be none of the crowding and standing in line for a half hour, which was so troublesome last year. One large gate has been made for entrance to tho grand stand, with ticket windows on either side. Two separate gates have been made for the bleachers. The ticket windows are arranged so four men can sell tickets, which is thought will prevent the crowding of last season. , The grand stand has been repaired and strengthened and is now receiving a coat of paint and whitewash. New chairs have been bought, and will be In position for Saturday's game. Western Intemtnte Lenane. TERRE HAUTE, Ind.. March 27. President H. F.

When Mr. Goodwin returned he asked for the bill, and was given change for a dollar, which his wife said that she had received in exchange for the bill. The husband was horrified, as he said that At was a $100 bill. Mrs. Fitzgerald denied that she had been given any bill of that denomination. The matter was then reported to the police and an investigation started. A telegram was sent to the bank at Heme. Tex., where Goodwin said he had received the bill, and the answer came that Goodwin . had received a hundred-dollar bill and some fives and tens, amounting to $70.

Dewhurst invoking the divine blessing. . After a vocal solo by Mr. Nell and a selection on the violin and piano by Mr. and Miss Martin, the address of the evening was delivered by Stanley Coulter, Ph. G., of Purdue University. His subject was, "The Practical Side of Biology." He said that the sciences are becoming more practical, and for this he was glad. "To me the mere fact that the truths of science may be made subservient to f'ie civilization of to-day," said he, "does ; ot seem to debase, but rather to elevate science. The fact. that the forces of nature can and are utilized bv commerce or manufactures does not seem to militate in the Slightest against the dignity of either science or nature. The time has not been lost in very rem6te antiquity when the 'naturalist' was, by unversal consent, regarded as a fairly harmless and entirely useless being. It Is said that the chemist has revised Isaiah, and, that while the prophet sins 'Ho! every one that thirsteth,' the chemist says, all wrong, Isaiah H 2 O, every one that thirsteth." " A Mr. Coulter then proceeded to the history' of biology, following it down to the present time, presenting its practicability in the different walks of life. A flute solo by Mr. Larnard followed the address, and Miss Messing's excellent vocal solo wae loudlv applauded. The degrees were Conferred bv S. B. Brown, D. D.

On the eve of what has promised to be one of the greatest politcal battles witnessed for years in the Senate arena, the Piatt forces in the Legislature yielded in the main to the aggressive asaults of the. independent element and agreed to allow the amendments to the police reorganization bill and the bipartisan police bill. All day long the two forces fought for supremacy, and pressure of the most remarkable kind has been brought to bear to compel the Republicans to support the bills to-morrow. Chairman Lauterbach, of the New York county committee, arrived In the early morning, and first began to dispose of the alleged unconstitutional feature. He filed a brief with the legal adviser of Governor Morton, .and after reading it and going over the bills carefully Mr. .Lincoln assured Governor Morton that the bills in his opinion were constitutional, with the exception of one feature. In the reorganization bill persons brought before the police commissioners have the right to appear with counsel. The printed bill does not allow that, but the Court of Appeals has decided that this is a constitutional right. Mr. Lauterbach then went up stairs and announced that the Governor said he approved of the bills, and would sign them If sent to him. After more consultations with the Governor and Lieutenant Governor it was decided at 4 o'clock this afternon that the only way in which the bills could be passed was to accept some of the amendments. In addition' to the one noted above, It was decided to allow the fMayor to appoint the commissioners and so do away with the elective feature of the present bill. The bills, under to-night's arrangement, cannot be put on final passage until Wednesday of next week. NEW YORK, March 27. In response to the call Issued by the several reform organizations in the city for a mass meeting to protest against the passage of Lexow police bills and to recommend the passage of the bills drafted by the committee of ten of the committee of seventy and the reform school bills more than 3.000 people gathered at Cooper Union to-night. It was exactly 6 o'clock when Cornelius N. Bliss arose to call the meeting to order. In his opening remarks Mr. Bliss stated that public officials are too apt to forget that they are public servants, and seem to think after they have been a short time in office that they are endowed with the rights of kings. He urged the passage of the reform bills of the committee of ten now before the legislators. Joseph Larocque was then introduced as the presiding officer of the meeting. He made a brief address, pleading for the nonpartisan police bills. - John P. Faure was elected secretary of the meeting on motion of Mr. Larocque. Mr. Faure then read two letters favoring the nonpartisan movement which had been received by the committee on arrangements. They were from Police Commissioner Andrews and Carl Schurz. Resolutions were passed urging the passage of the bill to reoiganize the New York police courts, urging the passage of the school bill and police bills and protesting against the Lexow bills. Among the speakers was Seth Low, president of Columbia College. ChargeH Against a "Warden. TOPEKA, Kan., March 27.

PlttuburfC District Miners. PITTSBURG, March 27. The probabilities are now that the railroad miners will, as a body, refuse the offer of the Pittsburg operators of CO cents, but as individuals will go to work. The operators claim, and many of the miners believe them, that they cannot pay 69 cents a ton and compete with the Ohio and West Virginia operators.
