Wright and A. R. Bryant, the wo head men of the concern, and prominent capitalists, got into a reg ular pugilistic argument in Mr. Bry ant's business office. Mr. Wright, in the encounter, is said to have knocked Mr. Bryant down three or four times in quick succession. The latter became winded before the tus sle had progressed very far, and was nnaoie to do Mr. w right any percept- hie injury. After the encounter both gentlemen departed from the offiie, nor have they been seen since. May Coaaa Tp la Police Coart. 'It is reported that the affair will he aired in the police court. Mr. Wright is said to have had consider able provocation in the way of epi thets burled at him, and this will doubtless be his defense." Later Derelopmeati. Today it is developed that the quarrel resulted from Mr. Bryant having purchased the interest of Messrs. Deere and Rosen field. and thereby obtained control, re ducing Mr. Wright from president to secretary and taking charge him self. Wright had for many years been president of the concern and did not take kindly to the change. BOWLING'S OFFERING. Conttlbutioaa to tba Nebraska Droath SnATerara. . 0 Messrs. J. W. Betty.

The Eastern Iowa Base Ball League was organized yesterday afternoon at Cedar Rapid s, and the Tri-City club is in it, thus assuring the lovers of the diamond sport a continuance of the amusement to which they have become so attached during the past few seasons, notwithstanding the fact that we were so unjustly turned down by the Western association in which we carried off the honors last year. TadJy Lynch attended the meeting, and the prospects for a successful season and hrst-ciass base ball are good. A circuit was arranged and a committee appointed to meet at the Kimball house the latter part of the month when a schedule will be adopted. The salary limit was fixed at $500. The season will open May 10 and will last four months with the help of Providence. Voaapoaltloa af tba Lea foe. The eight cities composing the or ganization are: The tn-cities (Reck Island, Davenport and Mohne). Bur lington, Dubuque, Cedar Rapids, Galesburg, Waterloo, Marshalltown and Clinton. The officers chosen are: President Thomas Loftus, Du buque. Secretary George Sbugart, Coun cil Bluffs. Treasurer T. F. Me teal f. Cedar Rapids. Tba Lracaa Name. In view of the fact that Illinois cities are to be included in the league, the name is not a proper one, It Rock Island and Galesburg are to be relied upon to contribute to the maintenance of the league, the state of Illinois should be recognized in the title or no state should. Bftter adopt a neutral title, such as the Mississippi Valley league, but it is better to be in a little league than in nothing, if Rock Island-Moline is ac customed to trotting at the head of a pretty good class in the base ball line. A Draiuatu 'a Kejoinaer. When Colnian, the English drama tist, was examined before the commutes of the bouse of commous which sat on the theatrical question, he was asked whether he expunged all oaths or pro fane swearing from the plays submitted to his revision. Ho answered: "Invariably." "Did you ever count the number of oaths in your own comedies of the Heir at Law and 'John Bull? " "Never, bnt I dare say there are a great many." "Which you disapprove of?" "Undoubtedly." "Do you not think it wonld have been bettor to have omitted them?" "Much better. They disfigure the scenes in which they are introduced and injure the humor. "Then," concluded the chairman. thinking to clinch the argument, yon are sorry now that yon wrote either of those comedies? "Quite the contrary," rejoiced the licenser.
