HARPER'R YOUNG PEOPLE.
AN ILLUSTRATED WEEKLY,

HARPER'S YOUNG PEOPLE has been called
"the model of what a periodical for young
readers ought to be-" and the justice of this
commendatiOn is amply sustained by the
large circulation it has attained both at
home and in Great Britain. This success
has been reached by methods that must
commend themselves to the judgment of
parents, no less than to the tastes of chill
dren-namely, by an earnest and we'll sus
tanned effort to provide the best and most
attractive reading for young people at a low
price. The illustrations are cOpious and of a
conspicuously high standard of excellence.

tive and desirable in Juvenile literature

The American Base Ball Association
having adopted some new rules Keeping
the catchers and coaching captains at
least seventy-tive feet apart, those belli-
gerent personages will no longer he able
to abuse each other in whisper, but will
nave TO talk out so that everybody can
enter into the full enjoyment of the game
In the spirit in which it is played.
Neal, the pitcher. was sold to Louisville
yesterday for 5000 and left last night to
join his club at Pittsourg. While Nears
arm is sore it is not improbable that he
will be able to play in couple Of weeks.
Neal was signed by Manager Morton as
an experiment. His record shows
that up to Mondays game he
gave an average OF fewer base hits and
struck out more men than
any OF the other Savannah twirlers.
he lacked the sell-pOssession OF older play
ers. however, and at critical points was
apt TO lose his head and leave unimprOved
cnances for shrewd and telling work,
which Is 80 prominent a characteristic of
the old timers. This added to au nclina-
ton to be wild in his delivery made him
rather unreliable. His greatest work in
savannah was in the thinning game with
Pittsburg. when he fought a memorable
battle with Morris. If some Of the Older
heads on the Louisville club will take
Neal in hand he can doubtless be
made veryYaluable twirler.

The Mountain Park Hotel.

Warm Springs in the mountains Of
Madison county, N. c., was for many
years the favorite summer resort of the
wealthy planters OF the South. Until the
fall of 1894, wnen the hotel was burned,
the popularity of the Warm Baths and
the place became 80 great that all who
came could not be accom- m odated. In the
fall of 1885, the Warm Springs, and large
tract of beautiful mountain land sur
rounding them, was purchased by. party
OF wealthy gentlemen Of New York city,
and upon the ruins OF the old house the
new and in every way frst-class Noun
tain Park Hotel has been constructed,
and will be ready for the reception of
guests on June 13, 1886. The hotel, with
its good sized, well ventilated rooms (the
windows all Of which look out upon beau
tiful mountain and river scenery, with
over 1000 feet OF unbroken piazza and
promenade around the ground floor, its
large, cool and airy dancing bail and
theatre, its elevator, electric bells, and
all modern improvements, is first-class in
every particular, and its location at 1890

l recite as the true facts in regard to the
"alleged mObbing Of Policeman Rogers :"
About 3:15 p. m. Tuesday afternoon, as

Mr.. Hall turn the prisoner over to me and
would take care of him until he (HalI)
could procure a wagon to take the pris-
oHer to the barracks. Mr.. Hall turned
the prisoner over to me and started in
search OF a wagon, when some per-
son remarked, "here comes another
policeman" Very shortly Policeman
Rogers in citizens clothes arrived in hot
haste, and grabbing the prisoner in nv
possession by the collar with one hand
struck him on the side of the head with
the other. l remOns;rated with Rogers,
whereupon he struck me in my face with
his fist. l turned the prisoner over to
Hall and Immediately returned the blow
with interest. The crowd separated US.
Now, Mr.. Editor. the only mobbing that
Rogers received was administered by
yours respectfully,

PLAYED ANUP-HILLGAME
THE HOME CLUB DEFEATS THE
AUGUSTUS > TO 4.


O'Brien's Pets Start Out with Every
thing Their Own Way. but are Beaten
at the Finish-HOIlaoher Not As Ef-
fective as the Visitors Hoped He
WOnld be-Ths Savannah Manage
ment to Ask for Umpire Burns Re-
mOval-Other Southern League Games.
The home club played an uphill game
with the Augustus yesterday. 1t was
nine men against ten all the way through.
The Savannah battery was MOriarity and
Stockwell. The visitors put up Hollacher
ana Suck. Suck is the catcher who
played here with the Chicago Blues early
in the season.
The game opened with the Savannahs
at the bat. Hotaling was hit by the pitcher
and was given first base. He reached
third on hit by Field and scored on a
fly by Collins. Field was thrown out at
second, and Collins and Moriarity flew out.
Hogan and Kappel went to the bat first
for the visitors, but failed 10 nit the ball
Harbridge and Phillips were hit by the
pitcher. Manning went TO the bat with
two men on bases. After two strikes he
was hit on the arm by the ball. Stockwell
let 1t pass to the fence knowing 1t 10 be
dead ball. The umpire allowed Harbridge
and Phillips to score. These were the
only runs counted up to the sixth inning,
when the visitors managed to get two
more men across the plate on the home
CLUBS errors, giving them the lead. The
SaVannahs tied their score in the next in
ming. In the ninth inning Stockwell
crossed the plate, winning the game.
There was some good playing on both
sides. O'Day's single handed eaten OF a
long fly to left field was one
of the features of the game. Hollacher
pitched swift ball but was not as effec-
tive as be was in Mondays game. The
visitors failed to t1nd Moriarity as they
expected, but managed to get nine hits off
bis delivery. Any ine points that would
help Augusta win the game were looked
after by Burns. His decisions robbed the
home club Of two runs, and gave tine Wis.,
itors two that did not belong to them. The
score in reality was to 8.
Ofhcial protest has already been entered
by two clubs against Umpire Burns, and
the directors of the Savannah club will
file theirs to-day or tomorrow. There is
no redress for rank umpiring except in
the removal OF the umpire. This is
wholly in the hands OF the Pres ident of
the League. In view OF the fact that Macon
and Charleston have already asked for
Burns removal, and Savannah will
make the third request, President Proud
mt can hardly do otherwise than turn him
loose. The Charleston management has
said that he should not umpire another
game there, and President Proudtit agreed
to send him elsewhere. There is no reason
why savannah should be inflicted with
umpires that other clubs willnot tolerate.
The following is the score of the game:
Savannah morning news., 1886-06-17
A Tie Game at Charleston.

CHARLESTON, S. c., June 16.-The game
between Charleston and Macon was
called on the thirteenth inning on account
OF darkness, the score standing to 3.
The game was an extraordinary one in
many respects. Weyhing, Charleston's
pitcher, was batted freely by the visitors,
who got fifteen hits off him, including four
doubles, and yet only scored three runs.
On the contrary, the locals only got three
hits off Smith, MacOn's pitcher, and yet
messed by an immense audience and
caused intense excitement. The score by
innings is as follows;
Charleston. 2 0 l 0 o o 0-9
Macon ......0 0 0 ? 0 o 0 0 O-3
Earned runs: Charleston /, Macon l.. Err
rors: Charleston I, Macon !. Struck out: By
WeyhiRg g, by Smith 9. Passed halls: Char es-
ton ,. Macon ,. Time of game hours.
Savannah morning news., 1886-06-17

Are Charleston and Savannah in the
same geological basin. or in similar ba-
sins? II yes, what will it cost to supply
the citizens of Savannah with artesian
water / the same wasteful rate OF the
consumption of the river water, when
Charleston has expended 100000, with a
most uncertain result, when, if con-
fagration should last for twelve hours.
the entire supply in the reservoir and l715
miles OF that in the mains would be eX-
hausted! What do you, who are tax
payers, say to This scheme?
There are periods when the river has
for long time enjoyed an immunity
from freshets that the water is nearly as
clear and as free from mud as limpid
spring water. Why cannot large reser-
voirs be prepared near the city and filled
when the water is clear, and kept stored
for use when freshet prevails1 After the
treshet subsidies and the water
becomes clear again, then the reservoirs
can be reflled and store of clear. pure
water be always in reserve. If it is i'm
practicable to establish these reservoirs
on this side OF the river, why can they not
be constructed on Hutchinson's Island
and the water be conducted into the city
through large mains resting on the bot
tom OF the river, and then pumped into
the tall tower in Franklin square? Will
we not by this plan be independent of the
freshets and haVe clear water in spite of
them?
1t is matter OF such vital Importance
to the comfort and health of ourselves
and our families that every good citizen
should give the problem his most earnest
consideration.
Should the plan that we suggest be
adopted the reservoir must be thoroughly
cleaned aud the mud flushed out of the
mains. The deposit, which is rich allu-
vium, could no doubt be utilized by the
farmers around the city. YORICK.
