Base Balls.

y fair estimate Of the number of
balls made for the present season
il said To be %,0O0,OOO, or II foI
every tea Of the population of the
Of the entire country. The hard
unfolding base balls that are now
used by professional ballplayers
are very different articles from
those which were in vogue II quar-
cr Of a century ago. In fact they
differ as greatly as the prcsnt game
of base ball docs from that which
was played in those days. dead"
or professional base balls are made
entirely by hand. According to
rules laid down by the league they
must weigh within five and a quar-
ter ounces. A little rubber ball,
weighing two ounces, is used as the
foundation for two ounces of wool
on yarn that is wound around the
ball, and permits Of it coming with
in the regulation size, weight and
shape. The limit in size Is nine IN
ches in circumference. The yarn
used makes the circumference Of
the ball considerably more than
this, but it is corrected by undergo
ing Il hamcring process, after which
the little sphcrs are turned over TO
the covcrcrs, whoinvcst them with
Il casing of horse hide, sewn with
linen thread. Non-professional
balls r made by machinery. 70
show the difference in the speed,
care aud cost of manufacture OF
base balls it may he stated that a
certain factory near New York can
turn out $4,000 machine-made balls
in a day, while the limit of manu-
facture for "dead" balls in the same
time is eighteen."-MdH and er-

CuClc E.Sck'S Wisdom.

There is nothing so valuable, and
yet SO cheap, rs civility; YOU can
almost buy land with it.
The great beauty OF charity is
privacy; there is asweet force even
in an anonymous penny.
1t isn't so much what a man has
that makes him hadpy, as it is
what he doesn't want.
There are many comfortable peo-
pie in the world, but to call any
man perfectly happy is an insult.
All political parties are made up
of foxes and geese-about five thou
sand geese to II fox.
Ny dear boy, if you must part
your hair in the middle, getit even,
if YOU have to split a hair to do it.
independence is Il name for what
no man possesses; nothing, in the
animate or inanimatc world, is
more dependent than man.
Men of great genius should not
forget that their failings, or vices,
arc more apt to he noticed, and even
admired, than their virtues.
Ny friend, if YOU must keep a

The Same Smith.

The Spartanburg UerGM says
that II. NJ. Smith, the vandal who
wished that Sherman had burned
the South Carolina College, is the
Smith who figures in the Fraud Re-
ports as a bride takcr and sWiller
Of legislative free WhiskcY. The
Herutd well says that if the charg-
cs are true, which is generally be-
licvcd, Smith is unfit to represent
a constituency of honest and hon
cradle men. All we have to say is
that Spartanburg is bad off for leg
islativc timber if it has to pick from
men with smircbed regulations.
BY the way, a pity it is that some
one did not kept a little list during
the Republican epoch Of the fine
fellows who so contrived then to
keep on profitable terms with Radi-
cal gang. Its contents would have
capsized q good many political as
pirants VINO then basked in the
Democratic sunshine without fear
Of exposing their blemishes.-Col-

Hindoo Craftsmen.

The supple delicate fingers of
the craftsmen are us remarkable
rs those of the Japanese, although
their hands alo much larger; but
n thing must very forcibly strike
the visitor who watches these
clever workmen and who observes
the primitivcncSs OF their applian-
ccS-the sad fact that the march of
civilization has deprived us west
cr!' nations of the use of Il toes.
TO be able to use four hands in
stead of two in arr work must OBJ
viouSly be an enormous advantage,
and the long, prchcnsilc toe of the
iindoO craftsman is even more re-
markaGlo than that OF his Japanese
brother. To sec the ;vOry-worker
turning his lathe with his upper
hands. while he guides il aud holds
the livery in his lower ones, is quite
an education in possibilities of de-
rclopment Of what to Us are really
almost parliamentary organS-daily,

the operation of the fashionable

TIE COLLEGE AND FREE
TUITION.

: Periodically, it seems, the uucs-
ton Of free tuition in the South
Carolina University, is made on
issue in the politics of this State,
This seems to be a triiiing matter,
but it means agreut deal more than
some suppose. Although none will
acknowledge that they are opposed
to education, it j. q fact that some
men will do very little towards
helping the young mon Of this coun-
try to obtain it. Much is being
said against the educational iusti-
tutions of the State; we hear that
the University is Il rich mans col
lege; they say that the appropri-
alton is enormous. Now we ask
the question, are these objections
well taken.
The object of the University is
not to make lawyers, doctors or
or mcchai"s, nor is it to educate
Il particular class of young men;
but this grand old institution, that
has ever been the pride and glory
of South Carolina, owes its cxiS-
tcnce to the fact that there have
been those who believed, that a lib
cral education was q blessing.
This University is a school free
and open to every white boy in the
state. No one is compelled to
study latin or greek, or anything
else, but the choice of studies is
left with him. Professors are there
to give instruction in science
literature or agriculture. This is
given by the State free Of charge,
n if you desire to know how
much money comes Out Of each in
dividual tax payer, it is easy to as
certain. Count by actual figures
and you will find that upon ono
hundred dollars worth Of property
n cent Il year gocS towards
this institution. \ man worth one
thousand dollars pays ten cents Il
year. Think of it! And vet we
hear men who are not called upon
&c pay two cents, proclaiming it a
burden which should be removed.
While the civilized world is now.
igltating compulsory educating, in
free school, some people in this
state object to allowing poor boys
free education.
Tho first editorial ever written
for TIE ADVERTISER was on the
South Carolina College, md we
still say, let it remain free and
open to the poor rs We'll as the rich.
Let every white boy in South Caro-
ma who IAN manage to pay board,
nave an opportunity of drinking at
this fountain of knowledge,
Some warm friends OF the col
leGe are being led to advocate
charging q tuition fee, because OF
tn" denominations colleges. When
young men are forced to pay tut
tlon, the appropriation must stop
and the standard Of this grand old
college will necessarily be lowered.
Let it remain in the future as in
the past and mono Will feel the bur
den, nut education and civilization
will be advanced.

A CLOSE CALI.
Through the Bravery OF her SOuBg
Companion, q S0un@ Lady Us
caDcs n Watery SepHIc.lre.

An extremely narrow escape from
drowning, which should serve as a warn-
ing to people venturing to cross The
river on the ice until there is assurance of
the safety of doing so, occurred this
morning about midway between the two
cities Miss Lulu Baker, daughter of
Mrs. ]. Baker, of the Second avenue
jewelry store, and Milton Elder, a boy in
Mrs. Bakers employ, started across from
the Rock Island shore; the boy was going
ahead, and as there was no visible path,
the boy went ahead to pick out a way
following as closely as he could in what
he believed to he The tracks of those who
had preceded him. Suddenly Miss
Baker feet went through between two
cakes Of ice. and Sue commenced to sink.
Young Flder rushed to her rescue aud
taking hold OF her arms told her to roll.
Miss Baker fortunately, too, retained her
presence OF mind and finally succeeded
in extricaling herself with the assistance
of the boy, and was soon on sound ice
again. She had gotten in up to the
knees and her clothes were consequently
wet, and with her companion r'ade
her way back to Rock Island AS soon as
possible.
She probably owes her life to the hero.
lie efforts Of her boy companion, VINO
was enabled to realize the danger Of her
position better tnan she could. Il was a
brave act on Millions part, who instead
of running away as many other boys
would, risked his own life to save that of
Miss Baker
While the boy is to be praised, Miss
Baker is surely to be congratulated on her
fortunate escape. and though the "trip
around by the bridge seems tedious
one, the accident will serve to show that
the Longest way around is often the
shortest way home.
