Two American MAGAZINES

Two American Magazines.
The excellence of American Magazines has
become so well recognized abroad, that one
of the leading English Papers, the London
Weekly Register, in recent issue, thus
speaks of Scribner's Monthly:
We are constrained to Darn that .Sc,-ib,.er's
NonthIy carries OF tie prize against all oar
Shilling monthly serials for brNiancy of illus
trations and variety Of contents 1t is sin1,ly
/ a aeo"dertaa shiH;,gs north Nothing can be
more charming than tie cuts-ttM of force and
ogor tie light and shade are managed miA a
truly artistic po'cer. ont OF ;is one and tce,.ty
original articles really do not kuog ac1ich to
choose as best, for each and all are ercelle,.t."
Not only is it true that Scrbners Monthly
excelS the English Magazines, but it is The
Best of the American Monthlies"
In the extent, variety and artistic excel
lence of its illustration of American themes
1t has never been even approached, much less
excelled. 1t has larger page and gives q
greater variety in its contents than any other
of the Standard American Monthlies
In literary character, and in the brilliancv
and ability of its Editorial Departments, it
enjoys an equal prominence.
Its conductors started with the definite
aim of making it the best magazine IL. the
aco'fd, OF which they have never for mo-
ment lost sight, and they point with pride
and pleasure TO the May and June numbers,
recently issued, and ask for them a candid
examination and a careful comparison of
their merits with those of other magazines.
and they renew their pledge to the public. TO
strive for still higher excellence in the future.
considerable demand has recently arisen
in England for st. Nicholas, Scribner's New
Magazine for Boys and Girls, one publisher
desiring to secure an edition of three thou
sand of the first bound volume (when com
pleted), with his imprint.
The success Of St. Nicholas in this country
has been even more remarkable than that of
Scrlbner's Monthly. 1t is pronounced to be
" an ideally perfect Magazine for children"
and. as is the case with all the best Htera
ture for children, it has been found to possess
surprising interest for grown up readers, as
WELL
The influence of the periodicals of the dav
can scarcely be estimated, especially upon
the rising generation. Parents and teachers
cannot afford to be Indifferent to this infu
ence, or careless in relation to the character
of the literature furnished to the children
outside of their school lessons In St. Mich
olas not only are History, Natural Philoso
ply, Literature, Fine Arts, and Manufactures
presented In an attractive way to young
readers, but the children are stimulated 10
seek information for themselves.
The Publishers will send to any address
a specimen number of st. Nicholas, postage
pre- paid, on receipt of ten cents the bare
cost of paper and printing. The magazines
are sold by all frst-class Booksellers and
Newsdealers, everywhere

.. Base ball now occupies the attention of most of our young men and boys. Early, last week, the Liberty B. B. 0. play cd with the Thomaston B. B. o. and the former were defeated by the close score of 6 to 4. On Wednesday last the Pas times of New Milford came over here and suffered defeat, after we'll played game, by a score of 9 to IA. The strength of the Libertys is in their pitcher and catcher. The latter position is occupied by a colored gent, but he is as good catch CT as ever stood behind the bat in Litch- field county, with the exception of Dem ing and Richards of Litchfeld. Barker, the pitcher, is white man. He halls from RusselI's school, New Haven, as do ono or two others in the club, and is the best and swiftest pitcher for miles around. The Pastimes failed to hit him with any sort of success. The remaining members of the Libertys are about the average of country players. The Pastimes played pretty evenly. the only noteworthy play being beautifully taken '.liner" by Mo- Mahon at second. Parker captured thir- teen of the Pastimes at 1st base, while Addis did the same for fourteen of the Libertys. The infelding was very sharp. Owing to uneven, narrow grounds and high clover, but few balls got outside. the bases. The following is the score:
