IT HAS A RECORD.
This record of ldolatry has not only a
record as mascot. but history of its
own, before it came to be regarded as
lucky piece. During the season of 1856
the GLOBE man set it in front of the re-
porters' table at fourteen games. which
he witnessed, and the home team
won thirteen of them. 1t was placed
directly in line with the battery points
at ten games last year and at nine OF
them the home team was victorious. At
Oit.a game in 1856 the home team was
without run in the fifth inning, while
Oshkosh had tnfcs. The GLOBE man
took the ''hoodoo" in his hand and
walked down to the players beach and
sat down. A man was given his D,Se
on balls as he did so. The next man at
the bat was Jim Duryea and he hit for
one base. Cleveland came next and
tied the score with home run. Two
more runs were made the same inning,
and then the ''hoodoo'' was taken in.
1t is not only a mascot on the ball
fields, but at cards. Out OF series of
twenty-fOur games of California Jack

twenty-one against an opponent who

in the temple, and before it the official

THE CHICAGO FIRE.

house which stands just north of Wash

the possession of a young lady, who
was fond of calling it a mascot. She

four OF FIVE years ago, and though the

considered to be of excellent quality, so
that the experiment may be considered
as having established two very impor-

be fattened entirely on silage and lin

that when so fattened a very satisfac-
tory return may be realized, quite equal
to that usually derived in feeding on

lOined during the game. but the lar
ceny made Mr.. Long too frisky. He was
run down between third and home in
the first inning and between second and
third in the third inning by falling
asleep Off the bases. If Hengle keeps
up his present gait he will have
a Fielding average away up

excellent game in spite of the ten hits
of the st. Louis men. Five of the ten
were infield hits, and two others were
made by fielderS falling over the clods
of dirt that litter the outfield of the
the Western Association park. The
boys only play Sunday games there. and
are no more accustomed to the grounds
than the visitors. Nicholson played a
good game at second, and Cantz was a
power at the bat. Brown, who is we'll

outs. Three times at bat and nine holes
in the air is his record. Sam Morton de-
clares positively that there is nothing
more in the alleged sale of the MarOOnS

McGill, Gilman, Scheffer. Merri-
am, Gresham, Blaine, the Order
They Come In.
After listening to the extravagant
claims of the Merriam men, and the no
less sanguine assertions of the Scheffer
allies, it will surprise many to learn
that ON the 457 postal cards returned to
the GLOBE, McGiff's name is indicated
the most as being the senders' choice
for governor. The cards have been
preserved, and this result can be yeri-
fed by any one caring to see them.
The GLOBE can only explain this by
two reasons:
First-A large number of the Repub-
licans cannot see why, if Hubbard had
a second term, McGill should not.
Second-They evidently think, judg-
ing by their replies. that his adminis-
tration has been satisfactory and that
the party is safer with him than in the
hands of the other three named.
The talk of the hotel corridors and
politicians has been that McGiil is al
ready defeated man, and certainly the
tone of the country press would bear this
out. In the face Of this are the returns
from 457 citizens of Minnesota, located
in all parts of the state, which gives
him lead over all other candidates.
Stranger things than this have hap
pened before. The poll of the vote, as
received by the GLOBE, is as follows:
