speaker. After some pieliminnrjlomaiks
he wns explaining the object of his Jouinoj ,
when somobodj-called out : . "What about the
Alabama ] "
The question provoked n stoimof hisses ,
but the speaker retuincd the interruption
very happily by s.ijing that no bol
ter illustratiou of tno value of
arbitration could been adduced than
the Alabama episode. Ho thought
the Enghirti admitted now that their conduct
on that occasion was very shabby.
Hefeiiing to the present discussion
regui ding the fisheries , thu speakei
mentioned Chiimbciluin ns an honest and
satisfactory man-statement which pro
voked n storm of hisses and applause. Sir-
George , in fact , was subjected to Interrup

There is but little new in local base ball
muttcis excepting thot the sntisfnction of the
public in the now roster of officers elected at
the recent meeting of the directory is being
manifested mot o mid moio every duy. Not
that any disparagement Is Intended toward
anj of the retiring officials , but the opinion
piovuilsthut the management is at last in
hands partlculatlj * adapted to the woik , and
that a season of unprecedented success is
foithcoming. Mr J. S McCorrnuck , the
new president , is un enthusiastic devotee of
the gioat national pastime , a gentleman of no
little expci lence , sound and practical on busi
ness principles , go ahead , energetic nnd un
tiring in his ofToits to piosper whatever ho
takes hold of , hence a better rnmi tit the helm
could not bo found forOmuhu's ballistic craft.
J. .T. Hnidin , the vice president , will muko a
most efficient colaborer with the president.
Ho has be-on Identified with professional bull
since its introduction heie , Is cool , collected
mid a wise counsellor. Dr. Woi lev , the seo-
retuij' , and.lohn M. Doughertv. the treas

the positions to which thev have been
elected , and altogether the ollleiul board is u
line one. That , base ball is to experience ) n
boom hero thci c is no doubt vv Imtsoever.
Theio is more interest evinced in the pros
pects of thu loc-al nssociation even now than
ever marked any particular epoch In the
history of the game , aid \v ith such un excel
lent coii > s of office-is , and such a stiong team
ns his alieady been secur c-d , it eannot be
othei w he than next season is to bo an ci a of

Handle For Umpire.
Now that the new western base ball asso
ciation is upon a solid footing , and there is
every prospect of a grnuil revival of Interest
horcaboutsi Qniaha should insist upon being
loccvnized as one of Iho chief and essential
j factors in the organi/atioii. She should not
be backward in claiming her rights and insist -
sist ng upon her deserts. At the meeting of
the association in Chicago no reprpsentutivo
from Omaha was ever mentioned as a candi
date for niij- official position. All the officers ,
the monibet s of tlio schedule and other com
mittees bivo been chosen from the other
cities , mid jet even n murmur has not es
caped the local mnnngomont. Thev mo sat
isfied that the interests of the whole will bo
subsoived by the woik uhcndy done und
have no occasion to molest or remonstrate.
However , tliej" should insist on having a
voice * in all legislation mid all rn.itteis per
taining to the general interests of the clubs ,
mid inasmuch us thej have thus far icfrained
fiom nsking for nnjtiling , they should
surely bo granted the piivilegu of

Persian lutis. The lutibaio wandering
minstiels , tioubadouis , montebank or
bufloons , whichever name one caies td
Mil them. The ordinary outfit of a luti
is a big , hairy monkey , a poney or * don
key , and a drum. They travel about
Persia fiom town to town , affording
amusement to the people by milking
their trained monkeys poiforin sundry
tricks , while they join in with song-
mid drum-beating.

The hairy covering is generally shorn

From constantly traveling about anil
associating with people of various cities
the lutis aio far more enlightened than
the average Peisian who stands and
listens to his songs. The Persians , as n
nation , arc the mo t poetic people 111

warble verse after verse of impromptu
song songs composed ev en as they sing ,
