his start in the profession has broken
away from the game long enough to
make a success in other lines of bus-
incss.
Lauder started as a baseball crank
before he entered college. He played
a good game even before he entered
Brown Unlvrsity. In the early nineties.
in that college he made a record for
himself that is still talked or among
college men. He played four years
with Brown. during one of which he
captained the. team.
During the your of his captaincy
tmhIee times in succession and the vic-
tories were all largely due to Lauder's
great batting. During the whole sea-
son the team met with only two do-
feats.

home, lives in Connecticut, for all
that he is no wooden nutmeg, when it
comes to playing ball.

and was seized upon by the league1
team in Slowtcwn. lie played third
base and was one. of the best that the
Quakers ever annexed. Soon all the
clubs were after him with offers of
chunky salaries. While In this envia-

Giants. He came. The thirty- -flve

services no doubt consoles him f0I

trade.
Last season LaudeI was disabled by

stunts.
MORE UNIONS WILL STRIKE.
DENCER Colo, May 15—— II is likely
that many more. unions will be called
out on strike today owing to the rcict‘
tion of the labor committee‘s proposl.
tlon by the Cltlzens‘ Alliance yester
day. More than 3 .000 men are aircndI
on strike. Among those most likely
to he called out today are. the engineers
and firemen. if they should quit work
there is danger that $300, 000 worth of
partmeut has increased its force to
handle the situation. The position of
the. (ontendlng factions is at a dead-
lock this morning. TlIc. Cltizens‘ Al-
liance will not accede to the union‘s
demands and the labor‘commlttce will
not arbitrate with .tile.Alllance.
