A Great Horror Done Away With

House cleaning is great horror to nine
men out of every ten. When that time
comes the men folks" as a rule, give the
domestic hearth wide berth. Oceans
of suds-the product OF tons of soap-fair-
ly food every part of the house. The
women, from the mistress down, labor as
they never worked before, and what with
the discomfort, the smell of suds and the
dampness, and not unfrequently sickness,
the product of colds and overwork, mat
ters are generally disagreeable The sim
pie use of Sapoio instead of soap does
away with all this discomfort 1t lghtens
the labor a hundred percent. because it
removes dirt, grease, stains and spots,
with hardly any labor, with but little water
and in one tenth the usual time.

SPRINGFIELD, Ill. Aug. 6.-The State
Board Of Equalization will meet in this
city next Tuesday. All the assessment re-
turns have not yet been received at the
Auditor office but they are expected to
be in by that time They do not show, 50
far as they have been received, that the
assessments have all been made at fair
cash value on the contrary, a number OF
counties are reported at less than they were
under the old rule of one-third cash value.
1t looks now as though the Board of Equal
ization would have a difficult Job before
them to adjust all the differences.

OUR NATIONAL GAME.
The Atlantics and Mutuals as Antago-
nists-Whcn Greek Meets Grcek-New
York Victorious.

The Atlantics and Mutuals rs Antago-
nists-Whcn Greek Meets Grcek-New
York Victorious.
The Mutuals and Atlantics played their seventh
game this season on the Union Ground yesterday
afternoon, In the presence OF about six hundred
spectators. The day was as fine as could possibly
be desired and the ground was in excellent condi-
ton: but, owing to the fact OF the game having
been Insuflciently advertised the attendance was
not so large as might have been expected.
Boyd, OF the Atlantics, was absent on account Of
sickness and Booth, late OF the Resoutes, but now
a substitute on the Atlantic nine, supplied his
place.
Play was called at four z. NJ, the Mutuals going
first to the bat, and on single base hit, aided by
errors in the Atlantics' fielding scored two runs.
The Atlantics were banked, although Barlow led
on with a fine line hit for a base. In the second
inning the tables were turned, the Mutuals being
whitewashed and the Atlantics getting two runs
as many base hits. Each club failed to score in
the next two innings, but IN the lftn the Mutu ais
added another run to their account and still held
their opponents down to TWO. The lead thus OBJ
tained by the New Workers was further increased
IN the sixth inning by another brace OF runs, and
although the Atantics struggled hard they could
not hit Matthews, and therefore could not score.
In the seventh inning EgRler distinguished himself
by making remarkably brilliant fly catch of a
hard hit ball from Pabor's bat. Gedney took sew
era balls on the fly In scientific style, and Start
and Allison each played their several positions to
perfection On the Atlantic side Barlow ana Dehl-

OF the nine engaging more or less In the "mufilngp

ALLEGED OUTRAGE ON A PERRYBoAT.

Yesterday afternoon the superintendent Of the
Jersey City ferry heard that a gross outrage had
been perpetrated on one Of the Desbrosses street
boats about two O'Clock on Friday morning. Thus
far the occurrence Is vouched for by only man,
who AYERS that he was passenger on board at the
time. He says that there were many men in the
ladies' cabin. On one side sat o woman
apparently respectable two OF the men in
suited her, then put out the lights and
outraged her. 1t is strange that neither
the eyewitness nor the woman complained OF the
affair on reaching Jersey City where Ofllcer Barry
Is constantly In attendance to arrest disorderly
passe ngers. The deck hands seem to know nothing
Of such an event. Nevertheless, the very posi-
biity OF the perpetratlon OF SO dastardy crime
justifes an immediate investigation. Captain
Woolsey yesterday ordered an inquisition TO be
made on Monday.

There are no doubt in this com.

just-dealing and in most instances,
unprejudiced men, who when a pro.
position is presented to them, will
solve it by the light of reason, argu-
ment and probability and there is
also perhaps few of them who lead

attention to the article headed

The Latest.

BY the d. l.. Tally we received
the Times and Picayaae of Tuesday,
and by mail the RepuJlicon of the
same date. We understand that
there Is considerable rejoicing and
exultatiOn here, on account of the
political speculatiOns of the two for.
mer papers, but for the life we
cannot see why. The great point
which the Warmoth party makes,
is that the Lynch Longstreet re
turning board had no certified re-
turns to go by. An extract from
the Republican explains that cir
cumstance satisfactorily. Directly
contrary to the decided turn of as.
sured success assumed by the Pic
and Times, is sentence in letter
OF a correspondent OF the latter
which says: "Altogethcr the sitaa-
ton acith regard to Louisiana is too
much mired here atpresent, for intelH-
gent comment, Exactly so. Again
the telegraphic heading of the Times
in capitals, says: A NEW Senate
RIAL ELECTION ALMOST CERTAIN.
AND A NEW STATE ELECTION PRO.
BABLE. With all our heart, we say,
amen to this proposition, for give
ms a fair election, and we have no
doubt of the result, and if there
should be one, which ace do not
think all probable, it iciU be a fair
one without the slightest probability
