A very pretty covering for the pano-stool is
made by fringing square of linen monte cloth;
catch the edge where you stop fringing so that
it will not unravel. Divide the monte cloth in
squares by sewing on two or three bands of
black velvet ribbon one way at equal distances
apart, and cross them by bands put on the
other way On the small squares thus formed
embroidery. The ribbon may be ornamented
also if you care to do So Let the ends form a
point which will almost reach to the edge of the
fringe, and to each point fasten a small tassel

NOTES.
The weak points of the home club were again
made painfully evident yesterday in two or three
instances. They are badly coached in their base
running, and seem to be without captain whose
orders are obeyed. If they are only made to
improve in the matter of base-running, their
chances for a good position in the championship
contest will be increased a hundred per cent
The same clubs play again to-day and either
MeKeon or Reising will pitch. The latter is to
be given a trial, and if satisfactory will be re-
tanned.
On Monday the Chicagos appear and will be
followed, on Tuesday by the Louisvilles. The
club will go to ST. Louis on Wednesday morn
ing so as to get good rest and be in condition
for the opening game of the championship season
onThursday.
