Of the 1.20O people prwiont at the opening (sine It Ih datlmiited that fully orif-half that number were there on pasaeH. It l ulready admitted that Kellly made a mlntuk building his park rloae to Morley'a dhiniond. an the fnn who gvt a high wit In tho Motley field can take In the opposition team'n play ing as nicely an If he had paid Mr. Kellly an adinlHKlon fee.

There is no possible chance for comparison. The Helenas are smaller than tho Retllyltes, but sre more active. Thomp son Is a good pitcher with lots of speed and wide curves. Howlctt. tin third baseman. Is a clever plitw-r and the center fielder. Hrowii, has class. Captain Klunnery has been playing short stop when his right place Is on third. Ho hopes to get a good man for short be fore lori. The Helenas are badly in need of practice. They were able to get in only about five days good drilling at Bakerstield on account of the ruiny weather. Stonewall Inn aid. San Francisco has been having a taste of Seraphic opposition this week and at this writing It looks as though I'mlo Henry Harris' wonders would go down In about the Fame fashion as did Scut tle, Portland and Sacramento. There 18 no getting around it, Morley has a "stonewall'' lnlleld. It Is Impossible for any batted ball to come Inside the dia mond and not bo gobbled by one of the Seraphs sure to be on hand. Kvery man Is quick, on tho Jump, and he plays the game from the time the first ball is pitched until the last one is twirled over the rubber. The Hurils men are by all odds the toughest proposition the Morleyltes have tackled yet. They are a bunch of hit ters of the first water and are able to Btart a batting rally ut either end of the line. They seem to be fast Udders and are handy on the bases. Harris has bought his men novel and rather neat uniforms blue shirts, blue pants with white ticks In the cloth, and red socks. The men look neat and workmanlike. Ed Hurlburt. Morley's new change pitcher, has arrived. Ho Is a big strap pins fellow who looks every .nth a ball player. Ijast year he was with Atlanta and Detroit, where his fielding average was .1) SI und ho hit .liiiO. Detroit wanted him this year, but he preferred the Coast. Hurlburt comes from a college team Into professional ranks. HYPNOTISM ON " THE DIAMOND City of Famous Brews Hires a Pitcher Who Will Charm Batters. The Milwaukee American Association Club, according to the latest news from tho city that waa mad famous by 67 kinds of beer, Is planning a surprise of vast magnitude -for its opponents In the coming campaign, and la Incidental ly about to atart what may prove a com plete revolution In tha science of the game. It threatens to sign one Hlott. a pitcher who la also a hypnotist, and the duty of Mr. Blott Will ba to exert his mesmeric power upon the hostile batsmen. Mr. Hlott, It is authorltlvely stated, can ao deceive a batnman that the unfortunate, after rtne glance at the mystic eye of Mr, Hlott, will see a wide out-curve coming , when the ball Is an ln-drop. The unhappy one at the plate will reach for a high slow toss when a lightning fast shoot Is whizzing past his knee, and will stand perfectly still, seeing balls way off the plate, till the umpire's call of "Three and out" rouses him to a consciousness that every one was right over. Mr. Hlott can be used In nearly every game, for his arm will not be overworked, lie will not have to breuk hi shoulder-Joint getting up steam, for even a ball rolled along the ground from the hypnotic hand of Mr. Hlott will lie Just as effective as the fastest pellet Kusle ever shunted through. It may be possible, of course, that some batsmen will be impervious to Mr. Hlott mesmerism, and will paste him far afield, but what of that? The next batter, no doubt, will be Hlotted out. and the side retired. Even should a wild plt(Jh pall by with a man on third Mr. Hlott will only have to make the proper passes, anil both the runner and the batter would Imagine that the ball was sticking firmly in the catchers paw. A Lars Tiald. What a wonderful Meld opens up for the hypnotist In baseball! In a few seasons If Mr. Hlott starts the fashion successfully, we will have the hypnotic umpire, who can make the most vicious kicker see everything with umpirical eyes, and send both the players und the spcrtator home In the best of humor. We will have the hypnotic batsman; who can charm any pitcher always ex cepting Mr. Hlott Into handing him a slow, straight ball, waist-high, under the impression that he Is sending In a terrific nak curve; we will have the hypnotic base runner, who can make the second baseman stand like a statue, ball In hand, while the runner dashes by, ond we will have the hypnotic. Intlelder, who will make the runner stop dead still until the ball has been slammed down upon him. Occasionally, of course, there will be a conflict of hyp notists. Professor I-aJole and Professor Kinder will meet half way up the base puth. Professor Cajole will wave his hands, with the remark: "Vou are out. you know you are out turn and walk to yonder bench!" Professor Keebr will make tho needful passes, and re spond: "I am safe. I must bo Baft drop that ball, drop thut ball!" They will stand thus, making pusses, until the hypnotic umpire shouts: "You are both under the fixed Impression that you are Jackasses. Stand on your hands, kick out your spikes, and say: Hee haw, hee haw.'" Oh. nothing to It the era of hypnotism In baseball Is surely near ut hand. HOW JAY GOULD GOT KEENE'S SCALP Albina Team Won.

Koene and Jay Gould wrote this: "The last tlmo I called on Jay Gould, at Forty-seventh street and Fifth ave nue, he pointed out to me a magnificent painting on the south wall of his parlor. It waa one of Rosa Konheur's nut her 'Horse Fair,' but her next best picture. Shaking his long, bony finger ut It and. sneering horribly, he hissed; " 'There hangs the sculp of Jutnes R. Keene!' "Among the purchases that he had made when In the heyday of prosperity Keene reckoned the ltosa Honheur as one of the most valuable, lie had paid a fabulous price for It. and It was the pride and admiration of hi household. Thl. along with other vuluublna, had to go to make good part of his enor mous losses to tiould, whose brokers hud wiped Keene off the fuco of the financial earth. The broker who got this grand masterpiece of ai t promptly turned It over to Gould, who hud It hung on the south wall of his Fifth avenue house. 'There tilings the sculp of James R. Keene.' How Gould loved to point to the picture und glout over It. 'He came here to take my scalp, ell?'" Newspaper writers of a luter day have chronicled the fact that James R. Keene. after Gould had died, lived long enough to redeem that cherished Rosa Honheur, to buy It back at Its later owner's price und to rehang It on his own wall How Keene lost his scalp to Jay Gould Is one of the most Interesting of Wall street traditions. How he began all over again, won a larger fortune than h' had lost and hung ut his war , belt the scalps of hundreds of others. , Is a story no less fusclnutlng and fur more rure. To lose a fortune In Wall street Is common. To rise and full and rise again to even greater helghths Is what few men have done. Jay Gould's Ketort. It was In August. 1 876, tlujt Mr. Keene came to New York, Hiid. postpon ing his trip to Europe, decided to remain a while. The Wall street atmosphere had fascinated him. His first deal there was to sell short 10,000 shures of New York Central ut 110. and It netted him something like 150,000 profit. Whether or not Mr. Keene ever said anything of the kind. Wull street credited him with having said thst he had come from California with a parlor car of cash to drain Jay Gould and take his sculp. Then the gossips had It that Gould had curtly retorted, "Well, he may have come here In u parlor car. but I'll send him back on a gravel car." Major J. R. Selover had met Keene In the west, had admired his bold au dacity as an operator, and was credited with having done much to persuade the t'allfornian that Wall street was his true sphere. It Is likely that Mr. Keene did not need much persuasion after he hail made his first J3,nuO.OUO. He had risen to the honor of president of the San Francisco Exchange before he left then-. His Ideas had broadened and Culiiornia no longer appeared to him a promising Held for operations. It Is likely enough, too, that the fame of Jay Gould was the flame that drew this Western moth toward the Wall street en tulle. Major Selover, at least, did much to spread broadcast the belief thut Mr. Keen had coaio east with his gun loaded for Gould. Keene at first made his headquarters at the ofhVe of Samuel W. Hoocock A Co.. No. 30 Hroad street. There he met "Sam'' Ward, the famous bon vivant. for whom he formed a strong attachment. Curiously enough, the same address. No. 3u Hroad street. Is that of .Mr. Keene s present financial headquarters, the office of his son-ln-Iaw. Talbot J. Taylor, In the Johnston j building, being located there. j Major Selover' Parrot. ! n-.. it . . . ...

Inflated hy his successes, Mr. Keene made the mistake that other shrewd men have made before and since, of going Into a syndicate scheme to corner the wheat supply of the ' world, lie sent $1.0(10.000 to Chlcagrt'rfor the purpose. He bought wliisit. cnfn,Tpork and other Commodities lavishly, and under his deft manipulation, before the crash came, he saw wheat go tip from less than a dollar to $1 H9 a bushel. At the phenomenal price the farmers I were willing to eat hay with their live I'slock and rush their wheat to the mur ket. More wheat was offered than ' Keene and his associate had counted I on. They had U keep on buying to j maintain prices. Tin n. If report be true. Jay Gould, who saw his oppor through his failure should not be per mitted to suffer permanently. That promise he has kept. While he never scrupled to flay others through the shifty game of stock gambling and to drain them remorselessly of ull they had risked. Mr. Keene made It a point of personal honor to Indemnify all to whom he was personally Indebted through his failure. Indeed, had he not done so he could hardly have risen again to power and prestige In the "atretit," as he ha done.
