Judge Marshall then asked Colonel
Cutshaw some questions about the
drawings, which Colonel Cutshaw an-
swered. Some remark made by the
Judge irritsted the Colonel, aud then
the Judge lost his temper, and for
moment 1t looked as ifs difficulty might
ensue, when Mr.. Ammons moved that
the Committee adjourn to meet Wsdnes-
DAY night, to receive the completed
plans.
"oh, viii have to 90 home to-mor-

Just here Colonel Cutshaw said the
paper which be had prepared, showing
the deficiencies in the plans, had been
prepared at the request of Judge Mar
shall and Mr.. George Myers, who
wanted it specified in writing in what
respect the plans were not complete.
The first drawing was then brought
forward, laid on the table, and the first
discrepancy pointed out--a lack Of
figures giving certain distances. Mr..
Myers, in explanation, said that the dis
lance was the same from some point to
some other point, and that should DO
used as q guide. Colonel Cutshsw did
not agree with him, and would not re-
lease his point. A discussion followed,
during which Mr.. Myers took occasion
to apologize to Colonel Cutshaw for the
indirect reference he had made to him
during his remarks.

HOW BASE BALLS ARE MADE.
Covered With Horse Hide and All the
Work Done by Hand.

Covered With Horse Hide and All the
Work Done by Hand.
n. Y. Mail Express.
Two strips of the leather are required
for each ball, cut wide and rounding at
each end so that they fit into each other
when put around the yarn ball. Each
piece, for league ball, is seven inches
long by two inches wide at the rounded
ends. The pieces are cut with a die
Old-fashioned blue Shaker yarn is used
for the inside of league ball, which is
wound tightly around small rubber
ball weighing exactly one ounce. The
improved league ball has now double
coverings of horse hide, which is regard
ed as a great improvement. 1t is also
stitched with gut.
The balls are made entirely by hand,
and it requires no little skill to shape
them perfectly round. This is done by
placing them in an iron cup about the
size of the ball and striking it at differ
ent stages of the winding. Men do this
work. They easily make ten dozen
league balls in a day and from forty to
fifty dozen ordinary base balls in the
same length of time. Their wages are
$3.50 day. Women sew the coverings
together on the ball. This requires con
siderable skill and strong finger muscles
They can sew from two and half to
three dozen league balls in day, and
from fourteen to sixteen dozeu of the
cheaper grades. They are paid by the
piece, 80 cents dozen for the league
work and 10 cents dozen for the Others
They earn about $12 week. The balls
are sewed with what is known as Bar
ker's fax, which comes in red, blue,
orange and pink colors. The finest balls
are sewed with pink.

TWO SIDES OF CITY LIFE.

Children.
New York Times.
It was on one of the hottest of the
recent severely hot afternoons that re-
porter. waiting near the corner of
Twenty third street and Fifth avenue,
assisted briefly and Internationally at a
meeting between two friends. Beth were
ladies of matronly bearing, comedy, we'll
dressed, presumably intelligent, and this
is what they said two feet away from
him.

"Not so hot as yesterday, do you
think?'

''Oh, yes, poor little creature. She
must suffer this weather"
"She felt yesterdays heat more than
any day yet. Why, had her in the
coolest room in the house and then
famed her most of the day"
Here the reporters car fortunately
bore him away. A half hour later his
way took him through one of the streets
Of the hospital district in upper Licking
ton avenue. It was dispensary day at
one of those excellent institutions, and
the block was crowded on the shady
side of the street with waiting mothers
bearing in their arms the sick babies
whose little lives we're weakly gasping
out under the accumulated burdens of
sitting heat, scant nourishment, and the
polluted air of crowded tenements. The
sight was pitiful--the weary, hopeless
expressions of the women, and the pale
sodden faces of the babies, who lay most
OF them with closed eyes and hanging
nerveless hands. In forcible contrast
rose the spectacle of an enervated pug
telling on its cushions in cool, airy
room, while its devoted mistress waved
the refreshing palm-leaf before its
wrinkled and expressive countenance.

The old story of the poor soul who was
caught between The devil and the deep
sea-" gets a new illustration from the deal
ing of doctors and drugs with malaria. The
story is soon told: My daughter" said
lady, had been struggling with malaria for
four years. She was all the time out of
health.-pOOr appetite, disOrdered digestion,
pale earthly color, pain in the head, limbs
and back, and every now and then right
hard chill. followed by fever. Then We
would send for our doctor and he would
prescribe Quinine, just as he did from the
first-and so kept doing all alOng-until the
name of quinine sounds like the tOlling of
the bell. Clearly between the two, her
health was being ruined and her very life in
peril. She was really between The devil
and the deep sea- Sometimes the name is
varied, and it is called some other inc in
place of 9uinine, but it is all the same-the
old firm with a new sign. In this dilema
lady friend said: Why not try Humph-
rey's Homeopathic Specifics, Nos. Ten and
Sixteen tried them. They were a sue
cess from the first, and not only cured the
malaria, but restored her to perfect health,
and left no trace of disease or drug pOis-
