THE house of Dale &, Co., on street, be-
tween Sixth and Seventh is about to enter
the thirty-third year of its existence. The
proprietor, Richard Dale, is too well known
in this community to require an introduce
ton. Ills continuous business career in
our midst during all these years has made
HIM and his business so well known TO the
people that his advertising space in another
column simply announces that he is still
on deck and before the mast, readyto sup
ply both old and young with every class of
holiday goods.

Indianapolis Wins Again.

The indianapolis club defeated the Cincinnati
nine again yesterday, by score of IL to 10.
Miller and Magure pitched and caught for
Indianapolis, and Reccius, the Cincinnati
phenomenon pitched for the home club and
was batted for fourteen hits. In the last inning
Poorman made home run, tying the score, and
Collins made the winning run on a safe hit, a
steal of second and third, and base hit by
Moriarity.
To-day and tomorrow the home club will

oils did not win a game from, and to-day they
will endeavor TO break the record. The batting

lon, M. Bennett, T.; Phillips, s.; Scott, h.;
Moore. c.; Quest 2b. Moore, 3D.; Meinke, p.
Casey will pitch for Indianapolis and Mcguire
will catch. Game will be called at $3.50 o'clock.
Both the Enquirer and Commercial of Sunday
agree that Jenningss umpiring on Saturday was
against the Indianapolis club. The Enquirer
says:
'.Al Jennings, in the CAPACITY of an umpire,
made an attempt to present the Cincinnati team
with game yesterday afternoon, when it fairly
this direction were SO ~papable that it caused
most or the five hundred spectators present to
show their disapprova OF his decisions in way
that could not be mistaken"
The Commercial says: ''If Jennings had en-
forced the pitching rules from the start the re-
suit might have been different But when he
tried to enforce them when the Cincinnatis were
in the hole no one was sorry the boys did not
win. Every umpire should know that games
on the Cincinnati grounds must be played under
American Association rules, and those rules
should be rigidly enforced all through, and not
only when the club may be behind

How OLD Sol USED TO SHINE IN SUM-
MER.-In 1903 and 1904 the Rhine,
Loire and Seine ran dry. The heat in
several French provinces during the
summer of 1905 was equal to that in a
glass furnace. Meat could be cooked by
merely exposing it to the sun. Not a
soul dared to venture out between noon
and 4 p. m.
In 1918 many shops had to close; the
theaters never opened their doors for
three months.
In 1878 the thermometer rose to 11e
degrees.
In 1879 the heat at Bologna was so
great that large number of people were
stifed. There was not sufficient air for
the breath, and people had to take refuge
under ground.
In July, 1893, the heat again
became intolerable Vegetables were
burned up and fruit dried upon the
trees. The furniture and woodwork in
dwelling houses cracked and split up;
meat went bad in an hour. Washington

refusing to carry out law designed to
aid American shipowners in their COM
petition with EngIishmen, seems to fur
nish early confirmation of the reports in
the last canvass that English money was
being used to help elect Cleveland. Mr..
Villas, in declining TO pay over the $4OO,
900 authorized by congress for the Pa
cifc Steamship Company, breaks up the
line between San Francisco and Austria
liza, and transfers the business 10 foreign
steamers, with the interruption of the
growing trade between this country and
that colony. Heretofore the English
government has sent its mails to Australia
by way of San Frncisco, which brought
$3.50, 900 year in English money to
American railroads. IF the Australian
line is now withdrawn, that money will
be lost to this country, and the advantage
England will gain over the United States
in business will amount to seventeen
days, whereas heretofore there has been
an advantage of two weeks in our favor.
In foreseeing the enforcement Of such a
policy, the Englishmen were apparently
justified iu aiding the democrats last
year, even though there was no direct
bargain.

BANK OF ENGLAND NOTES
How They Are Numbered and FL
nally Cremated.

All Bank of England notes are printed
in the bank itself. Six printing presses
are in constant operation, the same
machine printing the first particulars
of value, signature, etc., and then the
number of the note in consecutive or
der. The paper used is of very peculiar
texture, being at once thin, tough and
crisp; and the combination of these
qualities, together with the peculiari-
ties of the watermark, which is distrib-
uted over the whole surface of the
paper, forms one of the principal guar
antees against imitation. The paper,
which is manufactured exclusively at
one particular mill, is made in oblong
slips, allowing just enough space for
the printing of two notes, side by side.
The edges Of the paper are left un-
trimmed, but, after printing, the two
notes are divided by a straight cut be-
tween them. This accounts for the
fact which many of our readers will
doubtless have noticed, that only one
edge of bank note is smooth, the
sther three being comparatively
ragged. The printing presses are SO
constructed as to register each note
printed, SO that the machine itself in
dicates automatically how many notes
have passed through it. The average
production of notes is fifty thousand
a day, and about the same number
are presented in the same time for pay
ment.
No note is ever issued a second time.
When once it finds its way back to the
bank to be exchanged for coin, it is
Immediately Cancelled, and the reader
will probably be surprised to hear that
the average life of a bank note, or the
time during which it is in actual
circulation, is not more than five or
six days. The returned notes, averag-
ing, as we have stated, about fifty thou
sand day, and representing, one day
with another, about one million pounds
in value, are brought into what is
known as the Accountants Sorting
Office. Here they are examined by in
spectors, who reject any which may be

The flags at the navy yard have not

to that effect has been received from
Washington. The flags on the foreign
vessels in port are at half mast, and also
those on all buildings and Offices repre-.
senting every department. of the Govern.
ment except that of the navy. The
conduct OF the Navy Department in this
matter is not such as to make loyal
American feel proud of it.-New York
Tribune, August 8.
When Southern "Confederate'' leader,
such as the traitorous old Jake Thompson,
dies, the Democratic heads of departments
at Washington lose no time in ordericg
the flags at half mast, but when Union
leader, and even the greatest of all the
Union leaders, dies, the Democratic
Secretary of the Navy ignores the fact.
He is so constantly occupied in trying to
make political capital for himself and
his free-trade friends by prosecuting Mr..
Roach, the great American ship-builder
and champion Of American industry,
that ne has no time to think Of anything
else. That Secretary of the Navy, the
son.in-law of the Standard Oil Company,

All who have been, or will be, born
Must bear life's i'll as well as good.
Laugh while you can, there comes a day
When tears those merry checks must trace
And wash their rosy tints away,

THE Bourbon Democratic newspapers
in Virginia declare that I" if the people
are aroused" the Democrats will carry
the state by 10000 majority. When the
people of Virginia are aroused" the
fact can be ascertained by the number OF
massacres like that at Danville which
occur. With enough affairs similar to
that probably the Democrats can reach
the majority named.
