Oriental Geography.

An Ignorant man, especially if fate
has placed him in a position of power,
Is always cOnceited. Taken as a class,
Oriental rulers are the most ignorant
men IN the world, and the Sultan OF
Morocco is no better or no worse than
his brethren.
Talking one day with a Frenchman
who dWe1t on the frontier between
Morocco and Algeria. the Sultan
wished to be exactly informed as to
the position Of the frontier line.
To explain it the Frenchman laid
before him map, with the names of
the places and water-cOurses marked
in Arabic
The Sultan was amazed at the sight
Of this map, such as he had never seen
before. However, not wishing to seem
Inundated, he said to the Frenchman
ooh! 1 have map, too. I believe
1t is better than yours, for that matter.
And he signed to his chamberlain,
who left the room and returned with q
long, narrow box. Out Of this he took
stick covered with linen, stretched
over ribs, which, when opened out.
formed a terrestrial globe, the stick
being the axis. On this globe Morocco
was about as large as your little finger
nail.
''I was obliged to make the best OF
it, said the Sultan, pointing sadly to
the tiny space his dOminiOns occupied
on the face of the earth. 81 asked q
learned man to make me a globe like
this, with one side of it filed by
Morocco and the rest of the world on
the other, but he could not do it.

uZZ9-S<sFs5@ OK when you are IN q
hurry II is no trihing task to send ont
TO the store for such small articles as
sugar, tea and eggs, when you know
your next-dOOr neighbCr, Mrs. W., al
ways has a gOodly supply and you can
easily borrow what you are IN need Of.
10 be sure, you sent over and boE-
EoWed some starch Of her only this
morning, and you are conscious of the
fact that Mrs. w. has never borrowed
so much as a pin of you; but no mat
ter, ran right over and get a cup Of
sugar. Take the largest cup you have
In the house, and when you return the
sugar if you ever dO-select the
smallest cup you can find, and don't
fill it very full, for fear you viii spill
some.
Then. while you are getting the su-
gar, don't forget to ask for her fat
irons, for you know you viii want to
iron tomorrow and viii need them.
OF course, you have fatirOns of your
own, but you like Mrs. w. s the best,
for they are much larger and conse-
quentlY viii hold the heat longer. And
while there, if you think of anything
else you want, don't have any con
scientiOus scruples about asking for it.
Mrs. w. IS such a pleasant woman,
and so obliging. No doubt she con
siders it a great privilege to lend you
her things, and when they are worn
out she can easily replace them, pro-
viding, of course, she has money
enough to do so, and if she hasn't
ought to have.
You forget that you have only
known her three weeks, and you are so
glad she moved next door, for she is
such an accommodating soul.
You viii be utterly dumfounded
when you look out Of the window one
Of these fine mornings and find Mrs.
w. is moving out. What can be the
matter? You rush right over and ask
her why she is going away, and tell
her how dreadfully you will miss her,
etc. Perhaps she viii tell you there is
sewer-gas in the house.
This sounds rather improbable, If
you take into consideration the fact
that the houses in your block have all
been built within the past year, but
you don't.
Six months later you are convinced
that there must be sewer-gas in that
house, or something equally as disas-
trOus; for, although many families have
moved into it, none have remained
more than few weeks, and the place
is always to rent; Likewise the one on
the other side Of you. So. being fully
impressed with the idea that it is
'sewer-gas," you Immediately move
yourself.
Let me tell you, my friend, sewer-gas
1ad nothing to do with these houses
being empty; it was because But
what is the use? You would rot be-
Heve me; so, rather than get into
trouble, I refuse to explain further.

The Sick and Detected Mortonites,
Back Again.

The Minneapolis ball team reached
home last evening at 7:45 o'clock, hav-
ing completed the most disastrous CAM
paign of the season, except the first.
The new men, Hudson and McVey, ar
rived yesterday. and took some exercise
at the ball park. Mr.. Morton says they
look ike winners, and he is willing to
stake his pile on Hudson panning out.
Duke is IN good condition, and viii take
care OF the second st. Paul game. Hud-
son will pitch against st. Paul to-day,
and Dugdale will catch. McVey will
play in right field. The team will make
an effort to get up above the
500 mark once more. The Grip
pied condition in which the team
has been during its last trip out has not
accounted entirely for the good-for-
nothing games the team has put up.
The men have tumbled over each other
to secure eminence in the error column
and have been weak as picnic lemonade
at the bat. A brace will be necessary
if the team is to hold even third place.
The team Will 90 up TO Aberdeen on
Monday evening at7:50 o'clock and play
the Dakota champions on Tuesday af-
ternoon. returning on Wednesday,
when Des Moines plays in Minneapolis.

Tennessee Moonshiners Still Do

SOUTH PITTsBURG. Tenn, Aug. 23.-
News reached the city from Whiteville
to-day that John Hobbs, who shot Dep
uty United States Marshal Sam Hughes
Oh the mountain near that place We'd
nesday while resisting arrest, was still
there and had not ceased selling his
wildcat liquors. The Whiteville
people say there are something
like sixteen or twenty engaged
in the league with the N oOnShine bust
ness, and that they are well armed with
Winchester rifles and shotguns. Hobbs
says he will not be taken alive, and that
all of MS gang will fight for him. The
law-breakers are all hidden in the rocks
and it is dangerous for All officer to go
near the place where they sell their
whisky. They have several barrels
and swear they will sell it before return
ing to Grnndy andWarren counties, from
where they came. A $500 reward is
offered for Hobbs, but no one will nn-
dertake the arrest. A regular regiment
could not take him from his gang, sta
toned as they are. 1t is reported the
revenue officers will attempt to break
up the gang. and when they do the PEG
pie of that vicinity say there will be
bloodshed. Hobbs, it is said, was among
the moonshiners who killed Capt. Davis
some years ago.

STORY OF THEIR CRIMES.
Four Cold-Blooded Murders Ex-
plated on the GaIloWs.

NEW YORK, Aug. 2S.-Patrick Pack
enham, the eldest of the four murder
ers, was about sixty years of age. He
murdered his wife by cutting her throat
March Is of last year, because she re-
fused to give money to him with which
to buy liquor. At one time he was
policeman in New Orleans, OF late
years he has been idle and his wife had
TO support him. He frequently beat
and abused her and his children, and
threatened her life and theirs. He was
drunk when he killed her. He was
quiet prisoner and gave little trou-
bic after his conviction. Jack
Lewis, the eolored murderer. killed
Alice Jackson, mulatto, on July II,
1883, because she would no longer live
with him. He attempted to murder her
several months before he succeeded.
He fired several shots at that time, and
thought that he had killed her. He
fed. When he found that she was still
alive he returned to this city, and
wanted her to live with him again. She
refused, and he kept bothering her
after that up to the morning that he
murdered her. He called on that day
at 9 a. m. at the house where Alice
jackson was employed as cook. He
forced his way in, and went straight TO
the kitchen. She ordered him out of
the house, and he
SHOT HER IN THE BREAST
and abdomen. She accused him of the
crime before witnesses just previous to
her death, and when he was arrested he
acknowledged the crime. ''And /
meant to do it too" he added. Ferd-
inand CAROLYN was a German. He
murdered his wife at their rooms, AZ
Stanton street. His wife was an Irish
woman. He murdered her in the most
brutal manner. He was seen to do it
by woman who lived in the same
house with them. She looked in at the
window and saw Carolin chopping his
wife in the face with Ratchet. He
was holding her between his knees. He
chopped at her head again and again.
and when she was found by the police
she was disfgured almost beyond rec
IGNITION. She was covered with blood
from her head to her waist. Carolin
stayed in the room with the murdered
woman until the police came and ar
rested him. He made no resistance
and did not try to deny the crime. ALI
that he said was that the woman was
poor and a number of pawn tickets
murdered Emma Bush, who left her
husband to
LEAD A LIFE OF SHAME.
She had met Nolan and lived with
him for while, but finally told him to
leave her. He threatened her when she
wanted to rid herself of him. She
locked him ont the next night. The
next day he called to see her. As she
came down the stairs he pulled pistol
and fired at her. She was within three
feet of him when he fired, and four bull
lets entered her abdomen. In the ante
norton statement to the coroner Emma
said that she had supported Nolan ever
since she had lived with him. He had
frequently quarreled with her and
abused her. When he pulled the pistol
she screamed, "For Gods sake don't
touch me-" His only response was to
begin shooting at her.

BOTH LOST AND WON.
Giants and Phillies Play Two
Games and Break Even.

New YORK, Aug. 23.-The New York
and Philadelphia teams played two
games this afternoon. The first one
was begun at 2 o'clock, and the second
five minutes after the first was finished.
The New Yorks won the first game by
timely batting and superior fielding.
WEIGH pitched in excellent form and
was superbly supported, both behind
the bat and in the field. The Giants
made some errors but Offset them by
brilliant plays immediately after. The
feature was Mulvey's batting. Crane
and Brown occupied the points for the
giants, and Buffinton and Clements
filled the same positions for the visitors
in the second game. Crane was very
wild, and whenever he was hit it was at
the right time. To this the New Yorks
can attribute the loss of the second
game. Scores:

HOW THEY ARE PLAYING.
Individual Records of the st. Paul
Team.

In spite of its exceedingly poor work
during the second week, the st. Paul
team did pretty well on its trip, win
ming seven games out of twelve. In the
last four games the men have batted the
ball hard and run the bases in grand
style. They have won the last four
games. getting total of ffty-seven
runs, an average of over fourteen to the
game. The record below gives the
work of all the PLAYERS who are now or
have been members of the team up
TO date. Pickett's batting average
is better than that of any
one now a member of the team.
Reilly has fallen off to some extent,
and Werrick more. Halves and
Murphy, on the other hand. are doing
great stick work, and promise to make
the leaders hustle before the season
ends. The teams batting average is
three points lower that fortnight ago,
while in the field there has been gain
of point. The fielding of the team on
the trip was fair, with the exception of
Miller, who is plainly out of his class.
1t would be better for the management,
If it cannot find short stop, TO play

bases and long hits is very in
complete. The young men covering
base ball for at least one
each of the papers of Sioux City,
Omaha and Denver should go TO base
bali school and learn how to score.
Their reports TO the Western Base Ball
Press are unintelligible. This is taken
from an Omaha report: "Two-base
hits, Omaha ). st. Paul 3: stolen bases.
Omaha 4, st. Paul T." Of course, base
ball reporter of average Intelligence
would know that he should name the
players who make the two-base hits and
stolen bases. Eight of the games played
by st. Paul on its trip have been re-
ported by these incompetents, and, of
course, it is impossible to give the rec
ord complete. The batting and fielding
averages, however, are correct. The
individual records follow:
