War in Central America.

Hostilities have 5T0Een out between
the Central American States of Hondu-
ras and San Ss'ga3or. The advices show
that San Salca3or Las taken possession
of Amapola, .de only port of Honduras
on the Pacific coast that President
Gonzales, of the former State, is in the
field with 1900 men, and that Guate-
mala is preparing to send him reinforce
ments to the number of 1000. These
figures do not seem very formidable
from our standpoint, but they are
doubtless terrible armies in Central
America. The remarkable feature of
the war is that these very States, only a
few months ago, formed an offensive and
defensive alliance which promised to
make any unpleasantness between them
forever impossible.

The Profits of Baseball Tossing.

A New York correspondent of the
Chicago Times gossips as follows con-
corning professional baseball players !:
The Mutuals, of New York, pay an
average of 81 200 each to eleven players.
The Athletics, of Philadelphia, paw
$4,000 to IL players. The Baltimore
Club. of that city, have appropriated
So, 100 for 10 players. Harry Wright's
of 81 300, some of the players not re-
ceiving more than 5000 or 81 900, while
it is said that the two ghts-Harry,
the captain, and his brother George, the
short stop and best general player in the
country is paid $4,000. The Hay
makers, of Troy, pay the largest amount
in gross. they disbursing $4,000 for II
players, an average of $1,000. The
Cleveland Forest City" club paw their
men an average of $1,000. When it is
considered these amounts are for seven
months service, it will be admitted that
the pay is not bad. 1t is, however, un-
evenly distributed, the catcher and
pitcher getting the larger share. Some
OF the pitchers get as much as $4,000.
because so much of the success of the
season depends on the skill, endurance.
and stamina of the pitcher. Indeed. |
have been told that it requires, to tempt
from the side of his pretty, new
married wife, Arthur Cummings, no
less a sum than $500, or at the rate of
Sl25 week for seven months, with all
railroad and steamboat fares, hotel
bills, etc., paid while travelling. Cum
mings was formerly pitcher for the
Stars, of Brooklyn, but is now engaged
by the Mutuals. He is said to be the
best pitcher in the country.

Kansas Geology.

A. Hammond, a well-digger at ARA
pahoe Station, on the Kansas Pacific,
reports his well down $50 feet Saturday
night. 1t is penetrating beds Of fossil
shale, filed with Faculties, amonites,
and other fishes and reptiles. At three
hundred and eighty-eight feet he took out
the upper jaw of reptile in which the
teeth are perfect. Tusks near the tip
of the nose are over an inch in length,
and the other teeth are between half
and three quarters of an inch long.
The length Of the jaw is between TOUR
and five inches. The fish scales and
shells display the bright colors of
mother pearl. Two hundred feet
above they were digging through beds
OF oysters. A geologlst ought to live
happily in that well for a } ear or two,
whilst figuring out the length of time
it took old ocean to bury in sediment
now shale-these succeeding genera
tons that peopled his briny depths.

Every year increases the populari-
ty of this valuable Hair Preparation ;
which is due to merit alone. We
can assure our old patrons that it is
kept fully up to its high standard;
and it is the only reliable and perfect
ed preparation for restoring GRAY
OR FADED HAIR to its youthful color,
making it soft, lustrous, and silken.
The scalp, by its use, becomes white
and clean. 1t removes all eruptions
and dandruff, and, by its tonic prop
critics, prevents the hair from falling
out, as it stimulates and nourishes
the hair-glands. By its use, the hair
grows thicker and stronger. In
badness, it restores the capillary
glands to their normal vigor, and
will create a new growth, except in
extreme old age. 1t is the most eco.
nomical HAIR DRESSING ever used,
as it requires fewer applications,
and gives the hair splendid, glossy
appearance. A. A. Hayes, MD,
State Assayer of Massachusetts, says,
"The constituents are pure, and care
fully selected for excellent quality;
and l consider it the BEST PRErA-
RATION for its intended purposes"
