the NArI0 yAL GAME.
ono Cause OF the PrIghiruI Dcstruciion
OF Forests.

PhiladelphiI Record.
Never before has there been such an
early demand for base ball supplies. Nearly
twice the number Of base balls have gone
from the manufacturers so far than had
been disposed OF at this time last year.
Bats and other goods are being turned out
and sold In proportionate quantities. But
few people outside OF professional base ball
players have any idea OF the amount OF
base ball goods used In year, even when
there Is no such boom as prevails at pres
ent. It Is estimated that 100000 base
balls were used up last season, and that
nearly m equal number OF bats were sold.
To manufacture these bats nearly $1,000
cords Of wood must have been employed.
These are startling figures, but the facts
appear TO support them. Michigan manu-
iacturea more base ball bats than any other
State, for In Michigan the best wood is
found. Bats used by professional clubs
are now almost invariably made from ash,
and even this wood, strong and elastic as 1t
Is, must be OF the best quality and por'
iectly seasoned in order TO stand the strains
put upon It by base ball players Of to day.
The majority Of bats made, however.
are intended for amateur players, aud
are manufactured from American
willow. The willow bats are much lighter
than thosa made from ash, and, conse-
ouently, are much more popular with
Young players. There are bat manutactor.
les In almost every state in the Union, but
the largest and most noted, besides those
in Michigan, are In Massachusetts, New
York, Rhode Island, Illinois and West
Virginia. The bats are turned out by ma.
chinery, and as they are Of uniform size
and pattern lathe and the right kind Of
timber are the only requirements for q
mandatory.
The manufacture Of base ball masks and
gloves for the cAtGhers, and shoes Tor all
the players. has also become quite bus
ineSs In a quiet way. Orders for these
wares, as well as for uniforms, are usually
given to larse dealers in sporting goods
located In the various cities, together with
the measurements Of the players who are
10 wear them.
Recently orders for base ball supplies
have been received from European coun
tries, Australia, and even Japan, indicating
that our national game Is becoming known
all over the world.

Big Winnings at Poker-'sDink' Davis
 Scoops fn Sixty Thousand Dollars.
 PHnADElPHIA, Feb. 22.-The sensation of the poker rooms and sporting headquarters here tonight is the unparalleled run of luck that has followed 'tDink" Davis through the past month and enabled him to scoop the professional and innocent ones in Gotham to the extent of over $60,O0O. tDink' is 8 fa- vorite here having at one time been a we'll
 known faro dealer, and as honesty goes on that seductive game, ranked the squarest man among the keepers of such places
 ''Dink" gathered himself together month
 ago and one night appeared among the boys on Barclay street, New York, with 1,7O0 in
 his pockets. Davis is known all over the country to sporting men, and when he made the first few raises it ex- cited but little comment. The cash continued to go Davisward, however, in 8 steady stream almost without single break | and the dealers began to open their eyes. l He was catching them for all they were
 worth and soon the smaller ones began go- [ ing under and slapping business for a while 1 Then ''Dink' turned his attention to
 larger fish which soon fell into the same net l Night after night he won, returned and won
 again until there was scarcely 8 bank in Bar clay street that he had not broken. l When the month was up the know. ing ones said he had caught on to was too low for ''Dink' quit winner with
 over $6O, 900 in his pocket. Fifteen thou
 sand of this he sent to his father in the l country. He is said to have salted down a ] good share of the remainder and to have left l New York for fresh pastures.

I chic and English cheek, for chic means the 1 absence of cheek or excessive confidence o1 the cooler kind, such as one meets with occa. sionallv.
 The term chic was made the property of elegant or aspiring Paris by the artists; so is the latter term pschutt, now come into use. The artists used to call a mans skill chic,
 when he produced rapidly, elegantly and suc-
 cessfully, as poor Dore did with his popular
 drawings. Now they call it pschutt, which
 was first used to interrupt conversation and
 call attention to something elegant, like a
 fine garment or pretty girl Then pschutt
 became regular exclamation, intended to show surprised admiration. And now the fine people use it to denote ease, grace, taste In talk, dress or manners-that element which marks the people of the world. One may be very correct, or even elegant, and yet lack pschutt. A lady may have grace and winning manners without possessing pschutt.
 To have psohutt, dress and manners must be In perfect harmony with the person. they must show agreeable Individuality, and they must be successful. Pschutt is usually born with people, but can be improved with expes: rience and skill. It is impossible to have pschutt save among pleasant people, just as one cannot chat pleasantly with boor or dogmatic professor. The Paris artists ap- piled the term pschutt at one time to over done limbs, then to young men whose coats were stuffed to improve the figure. Such persons are now called b0udineS. All men who wear corsets are called 60LdInes in Paris But men who attend to their dress just as the best artists like it are now called pschutteslr Chic is dead, at least in Paris; but pschutt is the correct thing to have, although they est which Paris has had since the disastrous winter of lS70-71

demand for whose extradition is said to have
 been determined upon by the British govern
 ment, is pursuing the even tenor of his way
 as one of the editors of the L7ish World oi
 this city. On being interviewed today by 6
 reporter of the United Press association he
 expressed no surprise at the dragging in of
 his name by Carey because he believed that
 the 1atter's story had been artfully concocted
 for him by the Castle authorities at Dublin
 and sworn to by him to save his own neck
 MT. Sheridan declared he had never in his
 life met Carey, who swore they had met and
 been introduced at the Angel Hotel, Dublin,
 and that the statement that Sheridan had promised to forward arms from London to dan admits without hesitation that he twice tray elled through Ireland in the disguise of priest because at those times the British government was arresting every Irishman who was thought to be of service to the land league cause. He visited Ireland on the first occasion to recover some property of which he had been robbed during his Imprisonment and exile, the second time for the purpose of putting down agrarian acts and upholdipg tA0 AO I6uG Mau1I6SbO UY tue pIO- cess of social ostracism, that being in his opinion the most potent as well as the most moral weapon within the peoples reach. MT. Sheridan said that he had no doubt that if he and other active men then either in prison or. exile had been al- lowed to move about as usual among the people society would have been spared the shock of the Phoenix Park murders and ma ny like tragedies Secretary Forster, how ever, ruled otherwise and on him must rest the responsibility. As to his having distrib- uted money in Ireland during his sojourn there MT. Sheridan said that he had undoubt- edly brought succor to men, women and children whom Forster's cruelty had left without a home morsel to eat. In re- gard to his threatened extradition Mir. Sheri- dan said that if he regarded only his own safety he might put himself beyond the reach of extradition treaties, but he felt that his preliminary trial here if it came to that would result in showing the American people the kind of evidence on which innocent men are hanged in Ireland and therefore he pro- posed to remain.
