BASE BALL WITH CARDS.
An Exciting Game by Which the
Young Ladies May 'sCatch On,' to
the Slang of the Diamond.

The question, "What is base ball with
cards ?" being so frequently asked by the
curious, and more especially the young
ladies, who want to know if it is a game
they can play at without dressing in suits
and running a 90-foot base on the square,
it may be satisfaction to learn few of
the main features OF the popular game
by reading the following:
The game consists of thirty-six cards :;
nine Strikers" nine "plays" with "red
corners, and eighteen perfecting plays"
with "blue corners" At the outset the
principle of the game is to show
that a striker is at the bat, as
in the real field game OF base ball.
This is done by the compulsory lead of a
card striker" and Striker must be
led in every trick after various plays
and captures from the different hands, as
if they were bases. An umpire is repre-
scented, as well as all the actual PLAYERS
in game of ball "tly catch :" ely muff,"
"foul CATCH" foul muff," "pick up"
wild throw" and all such expressions
are used throughout the different stages
of the game.
The cards contain pictures of players,
bats, balls, etc. The game can be played
by two, four, or a greater number of
players. 1t is full of chance and skill and
call on the memory, judgment, rapidity
OF thought, and affords much interest
throughout. Messrs. Roberts & Nelden
say they have sold many packs.

ing establishment on Main street was
established in 1876, ever since which
time they have kept apace with the con-
stantly changing demands of the times
A few minutes inside of their well-stocked
rooms is sufficient to convince q customer
of the endless variety of domestic and
imported suitings to be obtained there.
The shelves have just been replenished
with large stock of cloths for fall and
winter trade, and their old-time cutter,
Mr.. S. Johanson, is kept busily engaged

How to Consult DIR. FOOte, ST., by Mail.

Prof. Miller, of st. Marks course OF m
struction, seemed delighted this morning

couraging prospects of the coming school
year.
ST. Marks begins its school year next
Monday, the 18th inst. The only change
made in the efficient corps of tried teach
ers is the addition of Miss Margaret San
ford, formerly preceptress in the upper
grades ofthe Council Bluffs public schools.

mar and music departments. Mrs. Hall
will continue instructions in all the mod
ern gymnastic practices in both schools,

The "Earth to EARTH Society.

There is an institution in England
called the Earth to Earth Society,"
which deserves to be better known than
it is throughout the world. While ac-
knowledging all the evils of our present
burial system as set forth by the crema-
tionists, the members of this society OBJ
ject to the burning OF the body as re-
pulsive, and as an unnecessary waste OF
material which might enrich the soil. In
the decomposition of the body after
death, there results watery vapor, car
bonic acid and sulphate of ammonia,
which if the corpse is placed in dry
earth, mingle readily with the soil and
become inert and inodorous Confined
in strong coffin these substances be-
come extremely offensive. Then the
the preservation of this noxious COM
pound makes every graveyard and ceme-
terry peril to the health of the living.
The germs of terrible pestilences are
often thus kept alive for centuries.
The Earth to Earth Society" says that
the body enwrapped in single robe
should be placed in an open wicker
basket, covered with flowers, and then
buried in dry earth. There is then no
lcoJSIIuS, HO EIOuuCGlOH VI pOloOllOuo
compounds, but a wholesome mingling of
the atoms that form our bodies with the
earth from which we originally came.
Ophelia's brother, at her death, expressed
the hope that "violets might spring from
her pure and unpolluted fesh," an ex-
preston as scientific as poetical, as plant
life would be noruished by the decay of
the body without pollution, if our resting
place was under the greensward without
any covering between us and the ground
in which we were placed. Cremation
would be an improvement upon our
present methods of burial, but it is a
hard trial TO consign ones dearest rela-
tives to the flames. Then it removes all
trace of such crimes as poisoning, which
would not be the case in earth-burial.

The Hand Grenade Test

The entire space between the four corners
of Second South and Main streets was filed
with spectators towitness the Hand Grenade
ire test last night. A wall of pine boards
was constructed in the street and kindlino
piled up against it, after which the combus-
tlble material was completely saturated with
kerosene and smeared with pitch tar. II
was then set on fire, and instantly the flames
shot up with intense heat, which drove the
crowd a hundred feet away. When the
names were the strongest. the exhibitor
rushed forward and dashed couple Grenade
oGttles upon the base of the fire, following
almost as suddenly as the flames sb9t any, ~,
they died away. An applause went m from M
tne large crowd which showed the perfect
sa1lStactlon of all present with the success

KILLING Dncks.

Every little while we hear OF men and
boys breaking the game laws by shooting
ducks before the 18th Of this month. the
time when the game law is up. This is
wrong, and those who are doing it should
be prosecuted and punished. Now, we
do not wish to give any names nor TO
point too directly to any person, but if
the man who lives next to Mr.. John
thompson, not far from the mouth of the
Jordan river, does not cease his unlawful
shooting of ducks and selling them to the
restaurants, we shall be under the neces-
sity of complaining about him, and call
ing the attention of the county prosecut-
ing attorney to his case. The evidence of
his guilt exists, and if he does not desist
will be produced in court.

The Shakespearian Recital Tonight

Lovers of Shakespeare will tonight

lessor Locke Richardson in his great
recital of lear" AS q scholar and an
artist, possessing true dramatic instinct,
be stands among the foremost among the
interpreters OF the Masters great works
The Boston Daily 4drertiser says of Mr..
Richardson:
His appeal to the understanding is most
direct and strong, and his gift of compelling
the hearers imagination into complete and
happy bondage to the poets thoughts is
absolutely unique. No reader of Shakes
peare whom we have ever known, not ex-
ceptlng those of greatest fame, has sur
passed Mr.. Richardson in this first and
most significant act of filling the recital
with imaginative life and t. 18th. To hear

The Blackburn District.

This exceedingly promising locality in
the eastern part OF Alturas county, Idaho,
which is named after a Salt Lake gentle
man, has been overlooked too long, says
a correspondent. The outlook there is
frightening considerably of late, and
there are ample indications of brilliant
future. The veins are large, the ore of
good grade, and we may expect to hear
of many mines over that way equaling,
if not rivaling those of Wood River. The
work there has almost all been done by
poor prospectors, but what has been done
has, in nearly all instances, proved very
remunerative.

Still a Mystery.

Between and o'clock last Monday
morning the guards on the Penitentiary
wall saw three men gallop slowly past
them with one OF the three in the lead.
Nothing at the time was known of the
terrible outrage on the Young lady at
Park City the night before, or more close
examination of the passing party would
have been made. 1t seems mistake to
have kept the outrage so secretly quiet,
which has given the rascal an opportu-
nifty to escape the officers which might
otherwise have been avoided. No ac-
count OF the criminal has yet been learned.
