implements of the National Game.

The national game Of baseball has
taken 50 deep a hold upon the youth OF
this generation asserts the New York
TJb4h.. that to Keep pace with the de-
mand for balls and bats big factories
have sprung up IN many localities, and
hundreds of working men and women
gain 4 livelihood turning the bats over
tneir lathes or sewing the covers by
hand over the inner core Of the sphere,
which is now made by machinery. Bats
are shipped to this city by the carload
from Michigan and West Virginia, and
it is estimated that 30, 900 cords of ash
and willow wood were thus used last
winter for this summers trade. The
bulk Of the bats are used by amateur
PLAYERS. Of course.
Willow is the f~avorlte material for the
popular bat, as Its lightness is combined
with i sufficient amount Of strenth for
Youthful PLAYERS, and West Virginia
turns out the best grade of this variety.
The superior toughness of ash makes it
indispensable for the great strainlwhich a
professional player subjects it<to. and
Michigan's forests furnish an incXhaustl-
bic supply Of this tough wood. The
manufacture of balls demands more care.
Tie better class of balls, those of rcgu-
lation size anil weight, as prescribed by
the professional rules, are covered with
horse hide, stretched with double linen
thread. we'll waved and s:noothed by
machinery. The inner core is of rubber
carefully wound about with yarn by
hand until the correct size is obtained.
The practice ball, OF boys ball, is COW
cred with shecpskin, and is more cheaply
and roughly made. The core is usually
composed of leather scraps, which are
pressed into a spherical shape by ma
chincry and have no more yarn wound
around them than is necessary to hold
the scrap, together until the cover is put
on. The design of cover now in uni
vcrsal use differs widely from the old
''star" pattern. 1t consists OF two strips
Of leather cut something like the figure
eight, or even like the heellcss sole of a
baby's shoe. These, when laid over the
sphere, exactly cover it and are more
easily sewn together than any other pat
tern, and if the man who invented it
had only patented his idea he might
have been reaping q fortune for his
pains.

A Freak of Nature.

The Cincinnati Enquirer is responsible
for the following story from Stoverton.
Ohio: "a most remarkable freak of
nature is reported from the farm of
George Sevingle, who lives near this
place. He hes among q flock of sheep 4
lamb over two months old which has
the nose and feet of a dog. but is IN all
other respects q sheep. Instead Of hav-
ing the ordinary teeth of the sheep Kind
the animals mouth, both upper and
lower jaws, is filed with long and sharp
wolf-like fangs. rendering st extremely
difficult to pick grass like the other
sheep. consequently it prefers to chew
and masticate twigs and shrubs. Il i
regarded as one of the greatest c%ariosi-
ties ever seen in this nejghborhood."
