At the next meeting of the City League Bascball executive there pro mises to be something doing. At pre sent the rule regarding players says { that if 4 player is signed at the first | {of the season by one team he must! play with that team all season, and with no other. That means that if a player signs with a team and after a few games is released or leaves = the team he is out of baseball for the season, a® he cannot play with any other. In many cases this season players have left teams and have not played with any other. Un Saturday last "Alfie" Pierce played with the Victorias and it is understood the Emeralds have protested the game because he was signed with them at the first of the season. At the next meeting the rule will be under dis- | cussion and some of the members will try to- have it amended so that a player released from one team can play with another. -- Head The League.

A funny incident occurred on Barrie street at hoon to-day. A blind man ran into a government official, and the other, not realizing the other's optic condition, started to whack him with his umbrella for such im. pudence in coluing with an official of his majesty the king. 'lhe blind man also had an umbrella and he wiclded it in an endeavor to smite his op- ponent, 'but couldn't see the attacking party and his blows hit only the atmosphere. Finally the king's officer tripped and sat down on the side- walk. The conflict then came to an end, and explanations and apologies were: made. Davis Dry Dock Repairs. The Davis dry dock will not be ready for re-opening until to-morrow. The work of repair, which at first was expected to occupy six weeks, has just taken half that time, and a good job has been dome. 'The Davis com- pany was assisted in the building of a cofferdam. immediately outside the gate, under which the break occurred, by a government dredse. Outside the dam a couple of lines of piling were driven. Between the dam and the pil- ing a filling of cement was placed, making a good, solid, water-tight wall. The entrance is considered to be in better condition than ever. The re- pairs cost the company, $1,200, be- sides three weeks' loss of the dock. DETECTIVES HERE.

Suspicion points strongly in one di rection, and stronger than ever during the past few days as a few of the gang have skipped out. Some of the members of the gang have figured in similar charges and if they are caught it may go hard with them. STONE WALL STOPPED IT, A Motor Cycle That Made Great Ss .
