At the close Of the game the visitors
gave three hearty cheers for the home
nine, a compliment which was retained
with cordially. and then ! 9th clubs
We'd with each other in cheering the UNI
pire for the able and impartial manner
in which he discharged his delicate duty.
A game never broke UP with better
feeling all around, and it is to be SIM
cereiy hoped that the Long Prairie boys
and their friends enjoyed their visit as
well as it was enjoyed by our people.
A high wind interfered with the play
ing to marked extent, it blowing a
gale throughout the game.
The Long Prairie nine has an excel
lent battery, Fisher pitching a swift
curve ball, and he did not permit base
to be taken on his pitching. Ed Quinn
started to pitch tor the Sank Centre
nine, but lame arm made it necessary
for him to retire to the field. he chang

BBsE Balloon Monday last the
Long Prairie club came down, accom-
panied by the brass band and about a
hundred citizens, and played a friendly
game of base ball with the Sank Centre
nine. 1t was a friendly game indeed.
There was not single occurrence from
first to last to mar the pleasure of the
hotly contested. game. Every feature of
it was smooth and neigLborly. The
Long Prairie players are all gentlemen,
with all that the name implies, and they
were received and treated as such, not
only by our club but by our citizens gen
orally. And they play ball, too. That
fact our boys learned to their cost. They
fairly earned a victory in a game, the
interest in which never tagged from first
to, last. But our nine, if that may be
called a base ball nine which is tumbled
together without notice and without
practice. did not do themselves justice.
for while in the main tine played very
creditably, yet at times they seemed to
lose their grip, if not their head, and
the result was several very bad breaks.
But it is rot the purpose of this item to
criticise them in detail but merely to spur
them up to better work in the future
and they are capable of doing better

Said a former resident of Sank Centre,
who owns some property here. Il will
give twenty-five dollars very cheeriuily
toward having the old rink painted and
fixed up so that it might cease to lie
an eye-sore to the city. 1t is about the
only unsightly object ofany prominence
in town. The streets, business houses
and residence property are for the most
part in excellent order-but that old rink,
it makes one sick to look at it,"
Rev. 7. B. Drew and family and Miss
Addie ApfeId, who has been visiting
them for a month or more, will spend
some time in Sank Centre, arriving dur

return with them to st. Paul to spend
the winter there. Mr.. Drew has a beau-
tiful new church nearly ready for occupa-
ton, and it is a model-bandsome and
rich though small. 1t will seat about
four hundred and there is not an inch of
waste room in it. He is doing excellent
work in West St. Paul. having planted
four prosperous missions during the past
two years.

are that they will nee it all. The attend
ance will be greater than last year
when it exceeded one hundred pupils.
The fact is that the school just meets
the requirements of a large class of
young men, affording them means of ed
ucation not elsewhere obtainable. Their
rates are exceedingly low, and the in
struction IN every department thorough.
J.B. Hardabeck of Alexandria was in

a new engine there for furnishing power

seventeen hydrants. The supply is
taken from thirty driven wells all

The wells arc driven twenty feet, and
about six feet of watei stands in the
pipes. Perhaps this offers a solution of
the desired pure water supply for Sank

The Cinnamon In California, although
aliens, are obliged to pay poll-tax of
three dollars, if under sixty years of age.
As they are thrift people, inclined to
save, and not at all in sympathy with
American institutions, they do all they
can to avoid this tax Mr.. Frank, an
assessor in one of the mountain districts,

man; and as the assessor still shook his
head and looked commanding, he ran
beseechingly down the years from ''klixty-
Xix" to ''klixty." But the majesty of
the law, as personifed by Mr.. Franks
unbending decision, at last awed him
Reluctantly he drew from his blouse
leather bag, took out of it three silver
dollars, and handed them to the assessor
with this parting shot:

The American Flag.

The flag, says United States Senator
Blair in the Mail and Express, is the all
comprehensive emblem of the most ad-
vanccd civilization which is, plus all
that we hope to be. l have often won
dered what it is which converts piece
of cloth into the highest conceivable
manifestations OF human qualities But
so it is. When the soldier hugs the
flag, that he may die within its rent and
tattered folds, although there be full
measure of both danger and glory re-
mote from the standard which concen-
trates upon itself and those who bear it
the extremity of rage and destruction, he
is actuated by no mere love of political
power and supremacy. The love of
country is a sentiment far more complex
and profound.

Egypt's One Lunatic Asylum.

There is but one lunatic asylum in all
Egypt. To that is devoted one of the
unused palaces, which, with its surround
ing gardens, is admirably adapted to the
purpose. Up to comparatively recent
date the Mohammedans did not regard
insanity so much as a disease as a proof
of divine inspiration. Lunatics were al.
lowed to do almost what they pleased;
to run naked through the streets, to as
sault persons; and not until their actions
became absolutely dangerous to human
life were they restrained. This was
traced to the early notions of the Chris
tians, who thought all lunatics were either
inspired of God or possessed of the devil.

SWEET PICKLES.

Picked Quinces-Peel and core the
ounces. If small, cut them into quar-
tiers; If very large, into eighths AS the
reader probably knows, excellent jelly
may be made from the cores and skins
OF the ounce. Weigh the pared fruit.
and take sugar in the proportion of three
quarters of a pound of this to every
pound of the fruit. AIT; nge the ounces
and sugar in alternate layers in preserv-
ing kettle, and bring them slowly to a
boil. To every five pounds of fruit and
sugar together allow cupful of strong
vinegar and teaspoonful each of whole
cinnamon, cloves, and mace When the
syrup boils, add the spices and vinegar.
and boil six minutes. With split spoon
remove the fruit and spread it on fiat
dishes, leaving the syrup in the kettle
until it has boiled thick Pack air tight
glass jars with the fruit, fill to overflow
ing with the boiling syrup, and screw the
tops on lightly.
Pears, peaches, plums, and crab apples
are all good picked according to the
above recipe.
Citron Melon Rind Pickes-Cut the
rind of citrOn melon into strips about
the length and width of the finger Law
these in strong brine for three days, then
freshen by laying in cold water for an
hour. Dissolve easpoonful of powdered
alum IN four quarts of water, preparing
enough to cover the rind Set the pre-
serving kettle containing the rind and
alum water over the fire where it's con-
tents will reach the scalding point grad
ually, and let them remain thus for four
hours. They must not boil. Take out
the rind, and throw it again into very
cold water. Dry the pieces between soft
cloths, pressing gently to extract as much
water as possible. Make syrup of
cup of sugar and half cup of water to
every pound of fruit, adding half an
ounce of white ginger sliced to every
quart of the pickle. Make this syrup
quite hot, put in the rind, and let it cook
slowly until the pieces are clear. Then
remove them with a perforated spoon;
add to the syrup in the kettle one cup of
vinegar for every pound of sugar, and
cinnamon, cloves and mace to taste. Boil
this syrup until it shows signs of thicken-
ing, and, having filled glass jars with the
rind, pour the boiling syrup over it, and
close the jars. A pretty touch may be
added to this pickle by cutting the rind
into fanciful shapes, as of leaves, circles,
hearts, etc.-H0rper's B0zar.
