There were over 700 people at th,
Union street grounds, on Saturday after
noon, TO witness the contest between the
home club and the Cuban Giants. The
Giants again demonstrated their ability
to play good ball. The Giants had every.
lhiDg their own way, owing to the loose.
ness OF the work of the home team.
several parts Of the game tue home
team had good chance OF winning, but
lhey were not equal to tho occasion.
lhe home clue did good work with the
willow but this was spoiled by poor base
running and bad coaching.
In the sixth inning Conroy and G. Will
liams collided at third base and for time
Williams bad TO retire. He, however,
soon resumed his position. For the first
Two innings the home club put up good
game and the spectators thought they
would make 1t warm for the colored vlsi.
tors. After that tho home boys did but
little. O'Hara captured everything that
went In the direction OF right fed.
The Wilmington club can play coed
ball, and all they want 10 do is to wax c
up and show some signs OF life. A go5d
captain and carefulr ess In base running
would make great improvement.
Morrell made brilliant catch IN left
centre field. In the seventh inning the
Giants entered protest against the de-
cislon of tho umpire In relation TO q play

AS Can bs seen by the score, the home
team made more earned runs than their
colored opponents.

should like to be in position to answer
them inteligen,ly in your own interest as
well as that of public order, and l have
come here to ask of you some explanation,
which will enable me TO act in the matter
with propriety."
The chief Of police had had some trouble
to reach the end of this little speech; he ex-
pected to be interrupted at the first words
and his little effort had not been studied
beforehand. But he found himself IN the
presence of a cool man, who listened to him
without opening his mouth, and who looked
straight in his eyes. When he had finished
Mr.. Brownlow answered him:
cit is fact, sir, that l have remarked,
too, for some time the crowds of people
standing before my house l am Ignorant
of the reason thereof; so far they have not
done any damage to me and l do not COM

neighborhood, it is your business to take
the necessary measure to put stop to such
a state of affairs. For my part, 1 should be
glad not to have to mix in these crowds
every time go out or when come in"
After these words he threw himself back
in his chair like a man who had finished
speaking and had said all he had to say.
"Permit me to remark to you, sir" said
the chief of police, very politely, "that the
present situation can not be prolonged.

HUMOROUS GEESE.
How They Had Good Deal of Fun With
Number of Young Pigs.

How They Had Good Deal of Fun With
Number of Young Pigs.
A goose has perhaps the keenest APP
probation of humor of any animal, UNI
less it be her own arch enemy, the fox.
The writer once saw in a little grassy
paddock some eight or ten fat and
healthy pigs and half score of geese.
From the paddock narrow open gate
gave entrance into the farm-yard. and.
as evening drew on, the geese ranged
themselves in row near this Their
mopyla. Obviously supper-time was
approaching, and the pigs wished to
return home to their troughs. Equally
clearly the geese had given each other
the word not to let them pass through
the gate which they guarded, without
paying toll.
First there came up a jolly, good
humored little pig, who trotted cheer
fully along with a confidence which
ought to have disarmed criticism, till
he came among the geese. Then. with
a cackle and a scream, every neck was
stretched to get bite at him. and,
squalling and yelling the poor little
porke. ran the gauntlet.
The same fate befell six or seven
more of his brethren in succession, each
betraying increasing trepidation as he
approached the fatal pass, and made
bolt through the corps de garde of geese
whose chattering and screeches of de-
light were almost undistinguishable
from human laughter.
At last the biggest pig of the party
brought up the rear. He was pink
heshed, clean young fellow, with fat
limbs and sides. and his ears were
cooked, and his tail sharply twisted in
the intelligent. wide-awake manner
which SO completely distinguishes the
intellectual pig from the mere swine
multitude. With a loud grunt of de-
fiance. this brave beast charged through
the flock of geese, and had actually al
most gained the gate, when a large
gray goose made one grab at his fat
ham, caught up the skin in bunch.
and gave it tremendous pinch with
her red beak. Needless to say, the air
was rent with the squeals of agony of
the injured pig. and the ecstatic
p@ans of the flock of geese in chorus.
From the order in which this trans
action took place, / derived the inn
preston that similar game OF prison
IRIS base probably formed the enter
ainment of the geese every evening.

ORIGIN or ELEPHANTS.
A Race Of Mammals That First Appears
in the MiOcene Period.


A Race OF Mammals That First Appear.a
in the Miocene Period.
The origin of the great proboscidian
race in general, and of the mammoth
and elephant group in particular, like
the early history of Jeames de la
Pluche, is ''wrop in obscurity.n All
we can say about them with any conf
dence is that they form a comparative
ly late order of mammals, whose
earliest recognizable representative in
geological time is the INDUSTRIOUS dino
therium. an aquatic animal with long
trunk, and with two immense curved
tusks, projecting downward paradox
ically from his lower instead of his up
per jaw. The dinotherium makes his
first appearance upon this or any
other stage in the Miocene Pc

course, have appeared there

any parents, and as he WAS then al
ready fairly specialized and highly
developed animal, we must take it for
granted that his earlier ancestry,
though ancient and respectable in its
own time, had long passed away, leav.
ing not wreck behind, so far as vel
known. in the matter of tangible geo
logical vouchers. These unknown an
cestors, in all probability, gave birth
during their earlier and more plastic
stage-for species. like individuals,
are most readily nodded in their green
youth-to three main family branches.
The senior branch produced the di-
notherium, vast brute, who, finding
the world too full to hold him about
the close of the tertiary period, de-
missed suddenly without issue, leav-
ing the honors of the family in sub
sequent ages to the junior mem
bers. The second branch pro-
duced the mastodons, huge Great
ures of elephantine outline and ma
jestic tread. most of them with tus ks
in the upper and lower jaws, though
the under pair were always the small
est. The third branch produced the
true elephants, including both our
modern Indian and African species, as
well as the mammoth himself, and
many other extinct congeners. All
the elephants proper have but one
solitary pair of tusxs, and that pair is
quite correctly located in the upper
jaw inst ad of the under one. Thus is
Evolution justified of all her children.
The true elephants made their first APP
pearance, as far as known, in the
Pliocene period-that is, the epoch
preceding the Great Ice Age. They
blossomed out at once into an alarming
number of species. -Cornhill Maya
