[ Sprrlnl to Tnc Ui ] Ho wns a who old Caliph who , on being In formed that onu of lilt courtier * had been killed by u full from the roof of bis pahico asked , "Who wns the woman i" for In vestigation developed the fuel thut the couitlcr In question had liud his attention nttractod by u beautiful honri In an adjoin ing court yard und whllu abstractedly con templating her charms hud Inadvertently Btfpped off his edifice into tlie embrace of tlio gri//ly old reaper , death. The potenl.ilo know that woman was inexplicably mixed up In all thunlTalrs of man licnco thoMftcnuncy ] ) of his riuory. I was very forcibly struck by thotruj.li < it thin not long bluco when I was told that the formation of the base ball brotherhood was largely duo to the Inllucnco of a very charming woman jnd actress , jlolou Dauvray , the wifoof Captain Johnny Ward. The story us told mo by my Inform ant , who Is Intimately acquainted with nil the parties , is n very long one , too long to bo told In all Its details In a single newspaper article , consequently I shall conlliio myself to Us salient features , It appears thut Ward , Kelly , Ewlng and otbcr leading bull players who were the sfcirs of the "Icngue" had been restive for several seasons and elm fed under the rules imposed on them uy tlio Jo-culled 'iiiiignntcs" or pro prietors ol the clubs constituting ttio league. Ono of tbo most objectionable of the rules was tlioono which permitted a club to "re serve" a player from scuson to season butf-tlll tnoro objectionable was the right the clubs had to "bcdl' him to another irrespective of Ills wishes or Ills profereiuos. Ono of the lead ers among tbu magnates , Spaldiiig , had been a bull player himself , and n good one. too , but partly through tliu prollts ho bad gained through his slock In tlio Chicago club , but moro so from thu revenue ho derived from the Mile of sporting goods , ho had become a millionaire , or was rapidly becoming such. Ho plays ball no move , und many of the men who do claim Unit bis interests lisa "mag nate" have made him lese nearly all sympa thy for his former conform. Ills wllo is a very estimable lady , but like many other es timable ladies , she is not insensible to the fiat that wealth nowadays is power , and that the possessor of it can aspire to social recog nition that salaried people can seldom bopo to attain. She would not bo a true daughter of Kvo If sliu did not desire to shluo in family circles whose heads were of equal lin- aucial standing with her husband. About three or four years ago Helen Dauv- rny , the netiess , huirnu to take great intciost in li.iseball. She was a popular manageress in New York at tbo time , Iho theatrical pet of the " 40(1 ( , " and the papers almost daily contained notices of her ultondnnca at the games In which "tbo Giants" participated , and of her satisfaction ut tlieir victories and of her sorrows when they were defeated. By and by she began to take n warm interest in the players , and later on Mio evinced an es pecial attachment for tlio club's famous short stop. It wab not long until she became his wile. She was to have accompanied him when ho became onu of Spalding's famous aggregation which went to Australia and around tlio world. She did not do so , however , but , as liudyuid Kipling would say , "That is another story. " When the dashing shortstop first espoused the charming actress , she was presented , among otheis , to Mr. Spuldlng mid his wife. The hitter , It is said , was fairly gracious , but nevertheless she contrived to impress Mrs. AVuwllth the fact th.it she considered that the spouse of a magnate was at le.ist a grade or two higher in the social sculo than the bride of a salaried ball tossor. This was not done obtrusively or offensively. Had it been it would have been instantly resented , for Mrs. AVurd is us high-spirited and mettlesome ns n thoroughbred nicer , but ladles have a way of doing these things that cuts to the bone , nyc , to tlio core of tlio heuit and yet gives tlio wounded onu no chance of Iminedhito re pi isul except at the risk of being considered rude and ill-bred. Mrs. Ward with her husband was even asked to "Como niul see us some time when you nro in Chicago. " Speaking of this Indefinite invitation to u friend alter- vnrds , Mrs. Wnrd said : "I was naturally nnxious to further Mr. Ward's interests all I could and to make him all the friends possi ble , bull never Intended to accept this invi tation unless it was repeated In Chicago and made formal as to date. " The exigencies of ball playing called Mr. Ward to Chicago. Mrs. Ward accompanied him. Then occurred an incident Unit made Mrs. Ward fool that she Inul a grievance indeed nnd that her position as the wife of a salaried Lull player hud not advanced her socially. Air. Spuldlng waited upon her hus band , und lu ii very abashed an apologetic manner said , in substance , "John , my wife invited your wife to call with you on us when yon came to Chicago , mid she intended the invitation , too , when she nxtended It , but the fact of the matter is Unit she has just made a complete change of Bcivants , and it is ut terly Impossible for her to entertain you now , and so she has sent mo to nsk you if you won't kindly accept her explanations mid ex cuse us old boy. She's really verv sorry , but it's ouo of UiOhO things that can't be helped , you know , niul she's really very sorry , and seam am 1. " Of course Mr. Waul accepted tlio excuse. Ho couldn't help himself if ho wanted tobut Mr.s. Ward wns not in an nngellc framoof mind when she heard of the affair. Baseball was in the zenith of Its prosperity In Ibb'J. ' U is said that the prollt of the "magnates" amounted to * ( ; 00,000. Tlio play ers though paid well , grow more nnd moio restive. They ushcd for a confcrenco with their employes with a view to the settlement of grievances , but they WITH airly put olt until the end of the season. In other words the magnates were too but } to attend to them , or tlieir troubles just then. Mean while u number of capitalists learning of the big prollts in the Bport began to intimate to the players thut they were foolish to permit tlio aforesaid magnates to gro\v \ , rich olt them ns they wcro doing , mid urged them to set up for themselves , offering them llnanciiil aid and popular encouragement to assist thorn in so doing. A number of tlio players had occupations mid business beside * ball playing whkli they practiced nnd looked after in tlio interims between their duties on tlio Held. It trans pired that the magnates intended to pass a itilofoi bidding their employes from engag ing In any other business but ball playing , nndhen Captain \Vard \ told his wifoof this she urged him at once to throw on" the j eke of the longuo mid with the pick of thu best player * of the day to form an association of their own. Indeed , the organization now known ns "Tho Brotherhood" was then in existence in embryo , for Ward , who Is a very clover lawyer nnd organizer , had worked ut It under the promptings of his wife , Inces santly. Ho needed but capital to make it effective and when It was forthcoming the Players' organization , ' 'Tho Brotherhood , " spiling into existence almost ut a bound. Thu bvil laid pluns of mlco and men gang nftagleo , nnd It is often oven so with the piinm of lovely woman. There Is little doubt that Helen U.mvruy expected that the forma tion of the The Hrolherhood would bo a creat Jlnaucutl as well as n popular stroke. When she heard the plaudits that iwimled n brilliant play by her husband , Duck Uwlng or of Keloy | , "tho ? 10,0K ( ) beauty , " and saw the amount of bpaco uud attention given them in Iho leading papers of the land she natur ally compared tlieir popularity with that of members of her own profession and she nat urally reasoned that if n star actor could with his company command tlio major portion of the receipts of a theater why should , iot the star players of baseball , merely salaried men , and their manager "magnates,1 * But ubovo all tiling : ) the wife of n star actor was equally high in the social sculo with tlio the wife of his manager. "Why sliould.lt bo otherwise In baseball i "It should not" Mio reasoned nnd it should not she resolved. The result up to date has not been exactly what any of the patties In question expected. The brotherhood has certainly crippled the league , how bndly lust now no ono eiu * ny but It has not wholly supplanted It us it fondly expected it would aud the future of Drcfessloual.baso lull Is very dark Indeed. Tbo feeling between the old nnd tlio new magnates is as bitter as ever , and instead of Rotting to gether and forming a new organization in which all should benefit , each seems llko Kilkenny cats on annihilating each other and the public- , the colden goo o which furnished the ovarian fnut on which all thrived Is daily becoming more and moro apathetic.

Gnr.nx MOUNTAIN FALLS , Colo. , August S. [ Special to Tun Bnc. | Nestled down In the hlstoric-Uto p.iw , nbout flftooa milo.s from Colorado Springs , and ton miles from the world-renowned Manttou , is the beautiful resort - sort , Grrea Mountain Falls , ns yet in Its in fancy. Nowhere can tlicro ho found moro de lightful drives , mow charming views of lofty peaks , moro desirable society than at this lit tle gem of the Kockics. Tlio air , heavy with tlio life-giving breath of pines , awakens ono to a now sense of life , and slojp , "tired na ture's sweat restorer , " comes unsought to the most weary , and bids him forgot for the time all the ills that so wear the life , The trip from Munltou to Given Mountain Palls , on thoscnio Colorado Midland road , Is full of bcvUldeilng surprises. 'Winding , serpent- like , along the almost perpendicular sldesof ttie mountains , to disappear suddenly in ono of the many tunnels ; darting across the picturesque Fountain creek , then around some precipitous cliff , to reach what to our unaccustomed eyes seems u point inaccessiblewo gradually over came tlio tremendous grade of nearly twelve hundred feet between Munltou uud Grcou Mountain Falls , and ucforo wo can regain our breath , Ibid ourselves in the midst of the crowd that is uhvays to be found at the station of n popu'ar ' resort. All is bustle unil confusion for a few mo ments , but wo have time to catch glimpses of a lovely little lake Just back of the station , and see , nestling in the midst , n small pavilion-crowned Islam ! of emerald huo. What is called the town is. composed of u largo modern hotel , a number of boarding houses , some twenty or more houses occupied by the permanent population , from forty to Illty lovely cottages , mostly owned ana in habited by tlio families of wealthy railroad men. and last , but by no means least , there are some three hundred louts , so popular with the inajoiity of tourists. No pains nro spared by. tbo man agement to malio Clrecn Mountain Fulls popular , und the outpouring of crowds from the frequented trains tcsti- lles to the successor their endeavors. Back of the hotel , which is always full to over flowing , is a commodious bath house and laundry where attention is given to all. ' The Terrace , " a desirable boarding house under the same management as the hotel , is decidedly popular among the tenters , and at all times has us many boarders as it can pos sibly accommodate. The natural advantages of "Tho Falls" in the way of grand scenery cannot be excelled. I have visited the most famous nnd popular resorts of our United StatO3 , and can say truthfully that no ono of them can in the least degree bo com pared with this place. With judicious manage ment and an earnest endeavor to place mother nature's varied gifts in the best pos sible light , tlicro is no reason-why this may not become the most popular resoi t of tlio west. North of us Is the historic "Ute 1'ass trail" along which General Fremont passed , and along which our fatlu-rs hurried to the far off "Ijjnd of Gold. " East of us lofty peaks rear thoiv heads far up into the wondrous blue , und to tlio south und south west Alt. Esther and Mt.

IMherl Who that has tra versed thut path will ever forgot thodashlnpr , foaming waterfalls , tbo rippling , crystal- clear mountain stream , seemingly playing at hldo and seek with the hugo boulders , the soothing stillness , unbroken save by the stl- verv llnklo of those same waterfalls , and the half-scared note of aoino woodland songster J Kustlo bridges span the sparkling stream , and inviting seats call to the passer by "tnko a rest. " Seated on home rocky eminence , far above the world .below , and look ing down in tlio lite that nnl- mates it , the wonder grows that ono could over do or bo anything that was not lofty , pure nnd true. It Is quito an interesting ns well as curious study to look into nnd compare , the varied maladies that aflliet the frequenters of this much favored spot. Troubled with insom nia here is found sleep sweet and refresh ing. Have you weak lungs ! The altitude mid the spicy , life-giving breath oftho pines will invigorate and tone you up , and force into your veins the bright , clear blood of health.

The ono nt Shickloy is attracting some attention , 0. L. Lemmon takes the sldo of high license nlk to the people through the Slilckloy Hor- ld , the enterprising nilmoro county weekly , n the Issue of July 13 Mr. Lemmon fires the ollowing broadside nt his opponent : From the tlmo when they tried to fit the alue of money down toour own day , when hey have Just abandoned all attempts to llx ho price of corn , statesmen have been under * nklng nil sorts of things , fioin regulating ho cut of top boots and trousers up to pro- > ai Ing people for heaven , nnil have been con- tantly failing , or producing widely different esults from those intended. It is exactly his way with our prohibition rrlenits n this campaign. They march up and down his great state exhorting umlcnticatiiigtho icoploto lloo from the mnnifold liorrorsi ( ) of ilgh license , to the millcnhmi paradise of irohiultluii : they t ll you ( and It is a remark- " iblo thing tlint you have never found It out joforo ) that you tire going to the donmltion jow-uowsnt u most frightful rate , nnd that l is tlieir mission to Inform jou 01 the fact , nnd to point out n road to salvation that you nust follow , ov bo eternally dimmed. No natter how honest you may bo in your con viction that prohibition is wrong in principle and ns a political expedient , you must full in vlth their Ideas , talk ns they do , howl ns they do and bellovo as they do or you mo put down Instatitcr ns a whisky-soaked and dis sipated old toper.

Thut wo me his saints , Tbcso "saints" assure you that prohibition Iocs prohibit ; that it does decrease drunk- icss , not altogether poilmps , butnsscit that t Is "ns inucn obeyed us any other law. " A imminent prohibitionist , in a recent address at Boston , said : "We do not iiroteml that ( lie law ngalnst Irlnk Is enforced In oveiy on e , but this Is the fate of ullluus. The l.iw against t lief I Is not always obeyed , und even tlio law iiguhigt , inliixU't' onu'UiiiPS falls.

The average punishment for the of fense was not more than ono u week , ono .mnlshmcnt for every i,000XIO ! , ( violations of ho law. And yet wo nro told that tlio law Is is well enforced as tlio law against theft or murder. Away with such nonscnco. There is not a prohibitionist advocating legislative prohibl- .lon today who does not know that wherever irohibitivo laws have been enacted It has noant simply a reiga of free whisky and of nwlcssness , to correct which the most in- ? fnious laws and devices of state legislatures luvo proved powerless. Tlicro is not ouo of them who does not know that it drhcs out capital by destroying fulth in the stability of > tuto legislation , and they all know , too , that n western states llko Nebraska and Kansas t retards emigration to an alarming degree , ind thus strikes a blow nt the prosperity ot the commonwealth. Don't you bellovo this ) If you wilMoolc up .ho emigration records you will find that In 1SS3 Kansas , prohibition Kansas , received only 2,000 emigrants ; high license Nebraska 102,000 , nnd Texas , which administered such x stinging rebuke to prohibition not eng ago , received 121,000 emigrants. Thus it will bo seen that Nebras ka , with no better soil than Kan sas , no moro desirable climate than ICnnsa * , received , during the last completed year , U'J- ' 400 moro emigrants than did that state. Isn't there n reason for this I Isn't the reason ob vious ! Do-you want nay better proof that prohibition retards and checks the How of emigration f Facts uro stubborn tilings. Another grout point that our pohib ( friends love to dwell upon and upon which they lay grrat stress. Is the assertion that prohibitr , o laws will empty our penitentiaries and jails , lessen the per cent of piupcrlsmand insanity and reduce the expense of arresting unil prosecuting offenders against municipal nnd state laws , Do you suppose that is true ? Let us look at the city of Topokn for a minute. In that city 7.VJ arrests were made by the police in 1830.

An town Temperance "Man Gives His Views on Prohibition. - COUNCIL Bi.urrs , la. , August 1. To the Editor of THU Bins : It might seem that Iowa citizens tire , in the pailunco of the sporting fraternity , "not in It , " but I can scarcely refrain from the desire to inform the good people of our sister state across the Big Muddy of the state of affairs lu our "prohi bition lowu. " , I um , nnd always liavo been , n temperance man , nnd ut the time the question was sub- milted to n vote I voted In favor of the amendment , thinking to advance the causa of temperance , but , although wo were victo rious in the election contest , I must say the desired effect was not produced. To bo sura the open saloons were exterminated through out the state , with the exception of these in some of , tlio largest cities , but the cause of temperance was not promoted to anv great degree. In fact , I verily bellovo Unit drunkenness win Increased from the fact that thodring elasa or "whisltv ring , " us it is called , was determined to have liquor nnU to accomplish their purpose Its member ? \\ould form miniature stock coininmiesconsisting of two to n dozen or lllteen of tbo aforesaid ring , und would select ono of their number , whoseiluty it was to send ton neighboring state and secure a quantity of liquor gen erally from two to live gallons of liquor or a keg of beer. When the liquor arrived the members .of the "ring" would bo notified and would immediately congregate , and owing to tliu amount of liquor on hand the result is a general drunken spree , spiced with nn occasional light and in some eases bloodshed. When the saloon was In full blast , al though there was undoubtedly more liquor drank , the drunkenness was loss , from the fact that the liquor was used moro economi cally nnd with less glnttiny. Generally speak ing thu drinker would stop Into tlio saloon at any tlmo ho wished , and us elton as he wished , drink a glass of boor ortwo'und walk out and In meeting ninetyninecases out of ono hundred would not feel the blight- cst intoxication , while if tlio "ring'1 would congregate to dlsiomo with a keg of beer dire results would follow , Today the "original pnckasroshop'1 is flour ishing In every villain iii _ the state and the result is still worse from the fact that Iho consumer must buy his liquor in larger quan tities than he would at tbo ojwii saloon. The result Is that although perhaps less liquor is drank , it causes moro drunkcncss. As 1 stated above I am a temperance man , but I long for the dny when a high license amendment shall bo substituted tor our pro- lilhitnry law , for I bollovo It will cause less intoxication , low.vx.
