Opinion In pain FERNS,


WAsHlSdroS, July 2-The civil service
cyclone struck the Senate to. day. IL came
mp on motion by Senator Voorhees, to
allow Tho Civil Service Commission one
additional clerk. number Of senators
took Il hand In the debate and all shades OF
opinions were expressed. Hawlry said he
believed IN tho system and thought the law
was being faithfully and consCienti0usly
administered by the present commission.
MIR. salisbury, with the utmost candor
and frankness, said hn had always con-
sllcrei the civil service law ~ u useless
piece OF machinery, q sham and Il deluslon.
II he had his way che would abolish the
whole business and go back to tho good
old plan that had always worked so well.
MIR. Plumb said that official statements
showed that ont Of n clerks appointed In
tho Pension Office under civil service rules
" were Democrats and the politics OF tho
i've others WINS unknown. He was afraid
that now clerk would not 10 aide 70 steer
the commission So successfully In the
Democratic camp.
Mr.. Ingalls, said he had no doubt that the
reason the commission did not succeed In
finding out tho politics Of tho llve appoln-
tees referred 10 was because II had not cler-
teal force enough TO hunt up their records
and antecedents, Mr.. Voorhees, said he Ind
never, sleeping or waxing had Il high
opinion OF the civil service law but II was
n law and should be observed. He was In
favor Of giving II fair trial Mr. Vance
denounced the whole system and said he
would be glad TO see 1t swept ont oil exist

The Courier Journal says Thepeculiar
manner in which some Of the crack pitch
ers deliver the ball IL well worthy OF
note. Every twirler possesses style of
pitching which belongs TO himself only,
and, what is more, he uses the same old
tricks over and over again. OF course the
batters soon become accustomed 10 the
peculiarities of pitchers, and are seldom
fooled, but every twirler is confident that
his tricks are puzzling, aud SO the effect
is just the same after all.
Ramsey, the "greatest pitcher in the
country" has rather attractive style.
He spreads out his legs and looks Like an
inverted "Y." While in this position he
wipes the ball on his hip, and the terrible
left hand describes n peculiar gyration
through the air, the ball twists aud huns,
travels most erratic course through tho
space, and finally whizzes like creased
lightning over the plate Just where and
when the batter does not want it.
Heeker hns q pretty and lively style.
He holds the ball idly in his hand for u
moment, then suddenly turns around on
one heel and, If a man is on first base, he
frightens him back to the bag by several
lightning motions, when the ball leaves
his hand and speeds over the batters'
square. Sometimes Hecker chances signia-
cantly nj the umpire, then makes n hop,
skip and jump, winding his arm beauti-
fully about his head, and throwing the
ball swiftly but accurately just where he
has signaled to the catcher. His style is
a great favorite.
Morris is II left-handed puzzle, who
keeps base runners constantly hugging
the bags. Usually he stands squarely TO
the front, throws out his chest, advances
the bali out TO the level of his chin with
one haud then plants his right foot for
ward aud sends the sphere like a thunder
bolt over the plate. Heisalways quick, and
his movements are graceful i'll the ex-
tieme. Batsmcn all like his fairness, but
find him hard TO hit.
Caruthers first advances his right leg,
fumbles the bnll on his hip second, and
then with sour look throws to the batter.
He pitches without fort, and seemingly
does not care whether tho batter hits the
ball or not. His delivery looks like il
would be easy to bat, but the reverse is
| the case,
Ellis Needles" Foutz doubles himself
up III knot and sudd,nly Strengthens

wiuks and mods with the catcher, when
he throws. Foutz always smiles when
