NANCHESTERS BEATEN.


Tic virginia Packed Ninc. by superior Play
ing, Win the Contest.
There was q match game OF ball at
Virginia Park yesterday afternoon be
tween the Virginia picked nine and the
Manchesters, which resulted in a VIC
tory for the former by the score Of e
to 3. Allen pitched for the Manchesters,
with Lipscomb to hold him, while
Swami and Casey filled similar positions
for the picked nine. The NirgniaS led
oif at the bat, and in the first inning.
on two hits, assisted by a base on
balls, a passed ball. and an error,
made three runs. They were held
down to this until the fifth, when
they added two to their score.
The Manchesters. on the other
hand. were blanked in the first two
innings, made one in the third and
four in the fifth. tying the score. The
Nrginiss added one TO their score in
the seventh. while the Manchesters
only got one man as far as first base,
leaving the score at the end OF the
seventh inning, when the game was
called on account of darkness, G to ).
Allen was effective in retiring men
on strikes. but nevertheless was
rather "of, having hit two
men and given four their bases on
balls. LipScomb had two passed balls
but did remarkably well, taking into
consideration the fact that one Of hi,
thumbs was broken. Swami pitched in
very good style, but Casey was unable
to hold him, he having five passed balls.
The double play by Tignor and llig-
gins was the most brilliant play of the
evening. Appended is the score by

created here by the kidnapping OF Lawrence

thousands, and two years ago de-
eamped. Six months ago he and his wife
came here, registering at the CITY hotel
ago q detective from Virgins & Woods
agency, Boston, named Davis, came here
but kept his identy hidden. Later another
detective came, and together the two men
Swallowed Brainer,l. One got introduced to
him and cultivated his aequaintenance, fin
ally informing him that he too was crooked.
The intimacy ripened, and the two frequent
ly went on excursions together. Recently
Davis proposed u duck shooting expedition,
and the pair drove into the country. Five
miles from the city, in Q lonely place, the
other detective and friend joined tie party
and overpowered Brainerd, telling him they
must take him to the states by fair means
or foul, bound him and drove him with all
haste sixty miles until the boundary line
was crossed. Br:,inerd's wife, becoming
uneasy, communicated with the police.
The detectives refused to give Brainerd up,

"offensive craftsmanship" and has H.
sued Il circular to all the officials and
persons employed in the postal service
warning them against activity in the
approaching general election, and for
bidding them to support any candi-

Many gentlemen in the postal service
have been effective political wtateps OF

Lord Johns Order, which, they say, is
unprecedented and despotic, an unwar-
rantable interference with the political
liberty of the subject. The prohibition
IS understood to be aimed At the
liberals, who arc more na,1esops than
the tories among the higher officials of
the post Office TO Americans, who
have been led to believe there was no
necessity for anything OF the kind, the
circular OF Lord Manners will be a sur
prise.

During eight centuries" says q
correspondent ofNature, zones direct
ancestors amount to a far greater
number than would be contemplated
Taking three generations to q CEN
tury, one has father and mother
i!two) grandparents (four) the great
grandparents, EIGHTY. Attic end Of
the second century the number OF
ancestors springs to sixty-four. Fol.
lowing the calculation, you will find
that at the end of eight centuries one
is descended from no less than 49,
600, 900 ancestors. Intcrmarriage, OF
course, would reduce this estimate,
and there is no doubt it must have
largely prevailed. But the figures are
70 enormous that, i'll spite OF all, l
venture to suggest that the words,
All yc are brethren, arc literally true"
Gen tainly, and if the calculation goes
far enough back, it must inevitably

Dinderella's SlipDer.

London Globe The origin of this
nursery tale is sufficiently curious.
About the year 1870 French actor
of equal talent and wealth, named
Thevenard. in passing through the
streets OF Paris, observed upon a cob
bler's stall the shoe of female, which
struck him by the remarkable small
ness of its size. After admiring it for
some time he returned to his house
but his thoughts reverted to the shoe
with such intensity that he rea pnearad
at the stall the next day, but tile cob
pier could give no other clew to the
owner tt nan that it had been left in his
absence, for the purpose of being re-
paired. Day after day did Thevenard
return to his post to watch the rein
tesration OF the slipper, which proceed
ed slowly; nor did the proprietor ap-
pear ia claim it. Although he had
completed the Goth year OF his age, so
extravagant became his passion for
the unknown fair one that he became
(were 1t possible for Frenchman of
that day to be SOY melancholy and
miserable. His pain was, however,
somewhat appeased be the appearance
of the little foot itself, appert aiming to
a pretty and youthful girl in tho hum
blest class of life. All distinctions were
leveled at once by love; the actor
sought the parents of the damsel, pro-
cured their consent to the match, and
actually made her his wife.

There is no fresh water in town, but
all the people Use is brought on RATS

GuayaAul! is famous for the finest
plneapples in the world-great juicy
fruits, as white as snow and as sweet
as honey. It is also famous FORTS hats
and hammocks, made of the pita fiber,
a sort OF palm. The well known Pana-
ma hats are all made in Guayaquil, but
got their name because Panama mer-
chants formerly controlled the trade.
They are braided under water,
by native women, of strands often
twelve and fifteen feet long, and fine
ones are very expensive. A woman
often takes two and three weeks to
braid q single hat, which sells for s. or
S., and wears forever saw a hat in
Guayaquil which is said to be worth
$3.50. 1t was made of a single straw
or fiber, as fine as thread and as soft
as silk, and the woman who made it
was engaged four months in the work.
The quinine trade has almost died
out, as the forests of Ecuador have
been stripped of the bark, and the trees
have thus been destroyed. In the
meantime the trees have been intro
dueed into the East Indies by the
British Government, where they have
been cultivated with great success,
thus securing a better quality of qui-
nine with less trouble. Quinine, or
Peruvian bark, was discovered by the
Jesuits in Ecuador in 1880, and was
named "Chinchona," after the Coun-
tess Of Chinchona, the wife of the Vice
roy.
