Down on the J0bbers,
Lancaster Examiner, Rep.

The scheme of che jobbers who are
making fortunes at the expense of the state,
educating children under the false name
of "soldiers' orphans" received severe
and deserved shock in the Senate yester-
day, through speech delivered by Senator
Coke. The senator conclusively pointed out
that continuance of this lavish and
unjust expenditure Of the public funds is
unconstitutional. The constitution for
bids the expenditure of money for the
benefit of soldiers children born after
January 1, 1856, and Senator Coke very
clearly pointed out that there are now no
" orphans" who can be legally received
into these so-called "orphan Schools"
and supported at the state expense.
The effort Eow making to continue this
expansive system for the benefit of the
owners of orphan schools, if successful.
will extend the educating scheme to six
teen years beyond the time when tile last
child should haze been born, whose father
served in the late war in q Pennsylvania
regiment, or was citizen of this state
and enlisted in regiment Of any other
state. These school owners have their
arms SO deep in the state treasury that
they will make desperate struggle to
keep them there.

The final judgment Of the supreme

from the Office of recorder, like the de

pointment, is a vindication of the legal
advice under which the governor acted
In these cases, about the propriety of his
action in which there was such variance
of opinion among lawyers and laymen.
The vetoes of the governor, too, often
dealing with the legal and constitutional
aspects of the questions which the legis-
lation presented to him involves, have
been distinguished by their forcible rea
soning and clear and effective statement.
With the possible exception of his dis
approval of the bill to equalize and make
uniform the pay of assessors the vetOes
of the governor have carried conviction
even to those whose action they disap
proved and nul!ified. These things are
to be set down to the credit of Attorney

none the less ready to do it because it
has never changed its mind about the

BASE BALL,

A my Game-What Wight De DOno for
the sport.
Yesterday the Fat and Lean mines OF
the Manuerchor met at Lamparter's and
played a match game of baseball. Owing
to the threatening appearance OF the
weather the crowd, who witnessed the
game, was not as large as was expected,
although there was good attendance.
The men vino were to have played on the
fat nine did not ali arrive, but Capt.
Brady managed to fill ont his team by
taking couple of light weights. Nine
innings were played, and after number of
brilliant plays and greater number of
awkward ones, the game closed with the
score standing 30 to 10 in favor Of the lean
men.
At present there are two baseball clubs
in this city, both Of which are composed
Of good material. The one is at the col.
lege and the other is the lronsides. Not
withssanding this fact the citizeus Of Ian
caster have not had an opportunity of
seeing any ball playing this season. 1t was
noticed in the press of the city some time
ago that the IrOnsidss club had organized
strong nine and were ready for gamSs.
II that is the case why do they not en-
deavor to get up soms games either with
the c,l!ege club Or those from q distence? ?
There are plenty Of good mines in
Harrisburg, Reading and York, in each of
which towns a game could easily be ar
ranged, if the club dees not desire
to play in this city. The only ground
here that is fit to play upon is the one at
the college. OF course the authorities
there will not allow an admission fee to
be charged. Lancaster clubs receive lit
tie encouragement from the citizens il
this matter, as but very few take suffi-
cient interest in ths game to put up any
money, while towns all around which are
not nearly so large have professional teams
the players of which receive salaries large
enough to live upon. As the matter stands
now the college will soon close for the
summer, and as the boys will go to their
homes, but one club will remain in tho
city OF course there are 10 clubs in the
county able to compete with the Iron
sides, except the College club, and they
should endeavor to get up games with out
of town clubs, for Shey have good team
and if they make a m,vo in the matter
themselves they may pat soma life into
the citizens on this subject.
Game Tomorrow.
The college and Mlllersville Clubs will
play match game on the college grounds
to morrow afternoon at 2 O'Clock.

Corpus Christi.

Tho feast Of Corpus Christi which
the Catholic church celebrates to-day is
very ancient in it's institution, having
been established by Pope Urban " in the
year 1864. The special reason for its es-
tablishment was that one day in the church
year might be set apart for special honor
to be paid to the Saviour in the sacrament
of the Eucharist. The indulgences by
which its proper observance is eDjoined,
are numerous, and their value highly
estimated by the followers of the Catholic
creed. At St. Mary's, the altar decorations
of which were strikingly handsome, the
masses were at 7 and 0 a. m, and vespers
and benediction will be celebrated at 1880
p. m. Morning services were also held in
St. Anthony's and St. Joscph's Catholic
churches.
