NOTES OF THE GAME.
The Port Hurons' uniform is one of the neat
est and most attractive seen here this season.
Dorgan and Peoples both disabled, and it
is extremely doubtful if they will play to-mor-
row.
The feature ofyesterday's game was a miracu-
lous catch by O'Leary in middle field. THE
only" had on his playing clothes yesterday.
The Port Hurons play agair to-day. Veaeh
and Kerns will be the home clubs battery,
while The visitors will present Mountjoy and
Meyers.
The gilt-eige Ceveands will be here to-mor-
row, and the boys say they are determined to
win. If they can beat the champions they are
good ones.
The Leadville Blues were in the city yesterday
en- rOnte to Dayton, where they play to-day.
Manager KIley is trying TO arrange for dates
with O'Leary's nine.

Another Canada Line Projected.

The scheme to build railroad from Mmneap-
oils TO the sault Ste. Marie is taking shape The
Montreal Gazette, perhaps the best informed
commercial journal in the Dominion, pats the
proposed road upon the back, AMI says that the
scheme, being a feasible one, and one which is
recommended by economic considerations,
there is much in it to encourage faith in the gen.
uneness of the enterprise. After giving the
scheme in detail, the Gazette goes on to say:
"The advantage of the projected route would
not, however, accrue to MINNEAPOLIS and st.
Paul alone. To Montreal the construction OF an
airline from the heart Of the American North
west to this port would prove of vast benefit,
giving us the control of the import and export
trade of that important section.

In behalf of the judges of the late military en-
campment Captain W. L. Kellogg, of the Tenth
Infantry, U. s. A. has made an oficiallreport to
the War Department, which reads as follows:
"FoRT WAYNE, Mich, Aug 81.
"Adjutant-ge general UnitedStates Army, Washington.
d. e.:
"sir-I have the honor to submit the follow.
ing report of my observations at the military en-
campment held at Indianapolis Ind, Aug 1917
inclusive, directed per special order No. ~
dated headquarters military division OF the At
lantic, Governors Island, New York Harbor
July 13, 1888:
1.-THE laws of the State of Indiana make no
provision for the support of the militia, which
now consists OF three regiments of Infantry, one
battery of artillery, one company of cavalry,
and two sections of Gating guns. Tits, there
fore, much to the credit of General James Il.
Carnahan, adjutant general of the State, to
whom believe it is almost entirely due, that
he has succeeded in short a time in
organizing and bringing to their present state
or efficiency so many companies Besides the
Ia diana Legion, there were in camp one section
of artillery from Louisville, one company of in
fantry, Branch Guards, St LOuls, Mo, and one
company of infantry; Paris Light Infantry, Paris,
ILL., Considering the recent organization OF
majority of these companies, they showed great
proficiency, both in drill and conduct of camp
duties Camps were well policed, tents we'll
pitched, bedding in good shape, kitchens and
kitchen utensils fairly clean. The camp of the
indianapolis Light Infantry probably the
cleanest. hut their kitchen utensils were below
the average. Arms and Announcements of nearly
all the companies were not clean Much i'm
provement in this repect should be expected.
~ In general the camp was orderly ana I'M
der an excellent state of discipline. Orders were
obeyed promptly and duty willingly performed.
Commissioned officers should pay more aLten-
ton to the forms of guard mounting, dress pa
rade and other ceremonies, aud should insist
more rigidlY upon their proper execution as res
CARDS minor details. In conclusion, I desire to
say that the officers on duty there. as judges
and Inspectors, were treated in the most cordial
manner by all officials connected with the en-
calnpm6ut."

A LONGER LEASE.

The life of a farmer is much longer,
in a general sense, than the life of an
individual who resides in 4 city; his
average age at death is siXty-four
while the average age of machinists is
little more than thirty-six years and
that of bank-officer is more than
sixty-three. That of coopers more thar
fifty-eight, that of public officers more
than fifty-siX, and that of a Clergyman
more than fifty-five. 1t is stated that
the average of teachers is little more
than thirty-four years, but there is pos
sibly some mistake in this.
The average for editors is forty, and
for gentlemen of case mot editors)
sixty-eight. The contrast is somewhat
striking. Physicians average nearly
fif.y-five years while printers go II trifie
beyond tltirty-eight. Book-agents
never die.

The Danish polar expedition for the

Greenland is well on its way towards
its destination. 1t will probably be
absent for at least two years.
There can be little or no doubt that
the eggs of hens while undergoing
the process Of incubation are liable to
be affected by the cholera of fowls.
Barthelemy has shown that eggs con-
tain germs of the microbes.
Connecticut is rapidly advancing in
the cultivation of the oyster. Not
less than $4,000 acres are said to be
devoted to the raising of that deli
cious cruStacean. The business is also
large. Thirty steamers and many
sailing vessels are engaged in the
trade.
Homeopathy has lately won a tri-

A paper has been read before the
Academy of Sciences, Paris, by M.
Neyreneuf, on the transmission of
sound by various gases. Using a
sensitive flame arrangement he proved
that carbonic oxide has about the
same transmitting power as our ordi :
nary atmosphere, but that carbonic
acid gas has much greater power.
At the physiological society, Berlin
it was lately stated that instead Of the
condensed milk, which, owing to its
large percentage of sugar, has not
kept its place as a food for children,
a preparation of milk has been lately
imported and introduced into the
market from Switzerland. This milk
is protected against fermentation
and decomposition by previous cook
ing.

In PittsbuTg flat steel twisted fsilc-
ing is made and sold containing five
wires, the upper and lower wires
barbed, for 40 cents a rod. Steel wire
painted is sold at 4 cents pound.
Galvanized steel wire is sold at o15
cents per pound. At these rates
good wire fence is about as cheap as
any other The new processes of man
ufacture are making steel as cheap as
iron, and the demand for steel wire
for fencing is growing. In afew years
timber will be an obsolete fencing
material, and the manufacturers of
this country will not be able to
| supply the demand. Now is the time,
consequently, for Texas to invest in
! appliances for the manufacture of
iron fencing material. Iron ore, as the
| STATESMAN has shown, Is as good
and as plentiful in Texas as any
where, and the states convicts could
be employed in no more profitable
manner than in making cheaper fenc-
ing for Texans than can be supplied
from any other quarter of the globe.
