BASE BALL MATTERS.
The First Appearance Here To-day of
the Phenomenal Cieveiands.

When Manager Morrill, cast his eye over the
soft surface of Capitol park yesterday after
noon and mentally calculated the distance a
man could slide at one jump over the alleys he
came to the conclusion that the game would
not be worth the candle, and this opinion
being backed by that Of the other powers that
the gate receipts on such day would scarcely
pay for the washing of the uniforms after their
contact with the mud it was definitely an
nounced that inasmuch as the schedule did not
call for a game there should be none. Thus it
happens that the game prevented last Wednes-
day with Pittsburg by rain is still on the post
poned list. but may be played of next Friday
il the present plans do not fail.
THE LEAGUE ISFASTs,
as the aggregation from Cleveland has been
rather inaccurately termed, will make their
bow 10 the Washington public this afternoon,
always providing that il does not rain, this ex-
ceptiOn being daily necessity nowadays
This team has been doing wonderful work this
season. and especially during the present
eastern trip, having won hve of the ten games
played, and those with the New York. Boston
and Philadelphia clubs. all pennant seekers
The result has been a total reconstruction of
popular opinions on the subject of the final
standing OF the Infants. and the local pessi-
mists are predicting that the Senators are 90
The Statesmen will be doing very well to get
half OF the games. To-day's home battery will
probably be Person and Mack. and it may be
that the visitors will oppose them by O'Brien
and thinner, the sensations of the day. This
would be guarantee OF a tight fight.
ELSEWHERE
Rain fell in every league city and caused the
postponement of all the games that had been
arranged. To-day Chicago plays at Boston,
Indianapolis at New York and Pittsburg at
Phiiade iphia.

THE PRESBYTERIAN ASSEMBLY.
Lively Debate on Temperance-Dr.
Crosby Opposes Prohibition.

Yesterday was the eleventh day Of the Pres
byterian general assembly in New York. The
judicial committee recommended that the
complaint Of the Rev. A. T. Hubbard against
the synod of China for refusing him leave to
use certain wines in the sacrament service be
dismissed. The committee held that the synod
was correct in its action.
The discussion at the afternoon session was
on Temperance" The first and second recon-.
mendstions of the standing committees report,
deplOring the ruinous effect of intoxicating
liquor and calling on ministers, elders and
congregations to help to crush the traffic, were
carried. The third recommendation caused
more debate than any single resolution since
the assembly opened 1t called for sympathy
with the widespread movement now in pro-
gress in favor Of the complete sup
preston OF the traffic in Intoxicating
liquor as beveridge." A minority report
signed by five of the committee and headed
by r. X. Wotring, of Nebraska, was presented
to replace this resolution. This report ex-
pressed sympathy with the widespread move
ment in progress for constitutional prohibit
ton. Rev. j. Logan Sample proposed to sub
stitute the majority report for the third resolu-
ton. Rev. John Fox proposed an amendment
to the effect that the assembly would not COM
init Itself to any political policy. DR.. Crosby
opposed both the report Of the committee and
the minority report He said prohibition was
the worst enemy of true temperance 1t might
do in rural districts, but it would be ruinous to
introduce it In large cities. Rev. VIM. H. Hub
bard moved that Rev. Mr.. Foxs substitute be
laid on the table. This carried by nearly
three to one. The minority report was then
defeated by 26O to 1O5 Prof. Dufield, of
Princeton, moved that the minority report be
adopted with the word CONSTITUTIONAL left
out. Il want this assembly to deliver a judg-
ment for prohibition pure and simple" A
motion to lay this on the table was carried by
Ice to 146. The other resolutions were then
adopted with slight amendments.

WHAT rs kkFEs

To eat, TO drink, to strive for fame,
To lay up heaps Of gold;
To pamper self, to toy with shame
From youth till we are old;
To tread the humdrum life of trade,
With disappointment NE.
Now filled With hope, and now dismayed
OH ten me, is this life?
An no; It's but the grosser part
A fraction OF the whole;
The life which satisfies the heart
Is centred in the soul.
There lie tho sanctities that chase
Away dark errors mist;
That fill us with an inward grace,
And 1T us to exist,
Deep in the soNl hove rears his throne;
There truth and faith abide;
And where they rule, i'll is unknown,
And life is glorified.
The outer world. though lair to see.
Is full of hate and strife;
And, oh how wretched must he be
Who has no inner life

The Farm, Field and Stockman saws:
1.-THE cattle interests of the United
States are depressed to. that condition
that there is no longer profit. Over
production is one cause of this state OF
the market. The vast number of unem-
ployed in our cities is another. The at
titude of number of European nations
In placing undue restrictions upon meat
products is still another cause. The
principal cause, however, is, without
doubt, combination of the great capital
ist packers, together with exorbitant
yardagc fees, and prices of feeding ma
