Beauty No. ON the Surface.

One anecdote to show what an en-
dowment greater than beauty can do:
Charlotte Cushman, as we know, had
soul but little physical attraction. /
have heard gentleman say who saw
her act in the Lady of Lyons" that
when she first appeared on the stage as
Pauline, he felt inclined TO question
whether Claude Melnotte or any other
man could consider himself the lover
of woman SO apparently lacking in
every feminine grace. But by the
time the play was finished he found
himself wondering not if any man
could love her, but that every man did
not. To such an extent can genius
triumph over merely physical de-
fects.
Can women without beauty hope,
then, for sway not only over the minds
but the hearts of men2 Yes, if the
lack docs not extend deeper than the
skin, which is supposed to be the
boundary line of ell physical lowell
ness. Though she may find herself
jostied aside by some dazzling belle in
the crowded ball room, she may look
for recognition where the heart desires
it most, and where are hidden those
roots whose flower and fruition are
the fullest honor and the completest
happiness. Anna KathariEe Green.

MINUS stage. AND DAMN.
Yale Will Not Have the Great Bat
terry Next Year.

Yale's supremacy in college base ball
in the East is likely to be endangered
next year by reason of the loss of their
great battery, Stagg and Damn. Con-
corning this the Boston Globe says:
sword comes from New Haven that
Stagg, the great Yale pitcher. will not
play in any capacity with the college
champions next season. There is no
doubt that great pressure will be
brought to bear to turn him from such
a course. 1t would give new life to the
game in other colleges if this fine pitch
er is really satisfied with the great
work he has accomplished in the last
three years and really means to re-
tire and give some of the other
ambitious youngsters a chance. Two
years is plenty long enough for any one
man to fill the pitchers box in a college
team. As rule the young plyers have
little confidence III hitting 4 man with
great reputation. Yale will also lose
Catcher Damn. He was one of the finest
ball players ever seen in Yale college,
and, as far as ball playing is concerned,
was head and shoulders above the catch
ers of Harvard and Princeton during
the last two seasons. Damn was strap
ping big fellow, who could handle
Stages drop-ball with great ease. This
crack battery could use the stick to
good advantage, and their places will
not be filled as all-round ball-play-
erS for many years. judging from
the past experience with college teams.
Princeton will have several new faces
next season. King has been selected
captain, and will no doubt take Mer-
ours place in the pitchers box, and the
team will work hard to gain some of
the laurels they have lost during the
last two years. Harvard will have at
least four new players on their team.
Knowlton, Gallivan and Campbell will
be missed. These three men were
natural ball players. Bates, who will
pitch for the second year, should do
some fine work. He has good command
of the ball and can send in all the puz-
cling curves known to twirler. Will
ard will captain the team, and it re-
mains to be seen how much he knows
of team work. Harvard played more

A CUTE TRICK.
That Played by Swartwood, of
the Hamilton Club

the Hamilton Club.
One of the cutest tricks ever tried on
a ball field occurred the past season
during game between two of the In
tcrnational clubs, and it only failed be-
cause the umpire didn't understand the
rules. The Toronto club was play ing
on the Hamilton's grounds. Tho Ham
iItons scored two runs in the first inning
aud the TorontoS had played their fifth
inning without making a run. Just as
the sides were changing for the Hams
to go TO the bat for their fifth, rain be-
gan falling, and Captain SwartwOod
felt sure that before the third man of
his side could be put out the rain would
fall in such quantities that the game
would have TO be called. and as the re-
ouired five innings would not be COM
pleted, they would thus be knocked out
of the victory. But Captain Ned was
equal to the emergency. Players \, b
and c, the three batsmen whose turn il
was TO face the pitcher, were told
to go to the PLAYERS bench, and player
ID. the fourth man on the list. was
quietly instructed to go TO bat, bunt the
ball and allow himself to be put out at
first. ID followed instructions. He hit
a fair ball and was thrown out at first.
Inc question WAS tneh Tdiseu lliat IL
had batted out of his turn, and in con-
sequence 4. b and c were out, which
of course ended the game. While the
players were arguing the question, and
Swartwo was trying to convince the
umpire. the rain increased and the game
was called. the umpire deciding mo
game" subsequently, however, the
same umpire admitted that he had been
mistaken. and that the fourth batter
striking out of turn put the three regu-
lar batSmen out. consequently the side
was out: the full FIVE Innings had been
played and the Hamiltons should have
been declared the winners. 1t was
case of locking the stable door after the
horse had been stolen, however, for on
the records of the association the game
stood the same as having never been

Special to the Globe.
BosToN, Dec. 81 had the pleasure
of visit from Leon Viau, the old st.
Paul pitcher, the other day. The boy
is looking great, notwithstanding the
heavy work done by him for the Gin
cinnati club last season. Viau has not
put his name to contract for next sea-
son, but will do so when the proper
time arrives. He says the Cincinnati
club played in horrible luck. just after
it had struck its natural gait. and was a
promising applicant for the pennant,
misfortune set in. First one player and
then another was stricken down. until
al one time seven of the clubs best men
were unfit to go upon the diamond.
Next year, however. Viau expects to
take part in some of the games for the
worlds championship. 1.-THE boy" is
now at Hanover, n. H.. and will put
in the winter there training the Dart
mouth college nine for next sea-
sons work. Viau is much pleased
with the signing of Duryea and Earle
by Cincinnati. He thinks Cyclone
jim" will be a great success in the
association. He expressed a great de-
sire to be paired with Earle. The two
youngsters would make great battery
to-day. l met another ball crank from
Washington recently, who is a great
admirer af Walt Wilmot. another of the
famous st. Paul team of 1887 He says
Tied" Sullivan did not treat Walt right
during the past season. and that il it
had not been for him Wilmot would
have had much better batting average.
The trouble was, he says, that Ted
would not let Wilmot HIT the ball hard.
Knowing that Walt was fast runner,
he insisted that he should invariably
bunt the ball and beat it out. The re-
suit was that when WilmGt wanted to
hit the ball hard he could not do it.

such would be the case. The young
man fairly economical in his habits
and careful of himself will not
have to wait long before he can

His salary in Pittsburg is $1,000 per

from his property, makes him one
of the richest men in the profession.
Anson'S salary is at least 5000, and
he is financially interested in the Chi
cagO club. He owns fine residence in
the Lake City, and is undoubtedly bet
ter domiciled than any ball PLAYER.
John Morrill, owns neat residence in

trict, not far from the Dudley street

thrifty young man. and his correct and

real estate proprietor. He is a
jeweler by trade, as is also his
father, but base ball is more congeniaI.
