In spite of the grouty sneers from the Boston press
the present series between the NewYork and Brook
lyn clubs IS undoubtedly between the strongest club
the League and the club In the American
Association. The result for the worlds championship
is still I'm doubt, but the writer sees reason for
changing the prediction given in The Tribune two
weeks ago to what would be the outcome Of such
a series 1t then stated that the Giants would
probably win, but that the NewYork team would find
that Brooklyn had a tremendously strong aggregation
Of baseball talent and, that 10 win, the Giants could
not afford to relax their efforts for an instant. In
The series so far played the two teams have shown
themselves evenly matched in many respects. Tha
Brooklyn men have bated we'll, and have also dona

The meeting of the Board Of Directors Of the League
viii be held at the Fifth Avenue Hotel on November
H. week after the Brotherhood convention. The
League meeting proper IS called for two days LATER and
IL probable that the convention NAV last through
three or four days. The annual meeting Of the
American Association will be held here on the same
dates and n Is assured that larger number of active
baseball will assemble in this city at that time
than before together at one gathering
Whether in of trouble with the Brotherhood, the
League and Association would join issues and fight tho
players be announced for certainty but such
a combination would very probably be made. In case
such combination made. the Brotherhoods
chances for ultimate would be materially re-
duced While the Brotherhood might hope to sue
cessfuly battle against the League alone, its chances
for defeating the combined clubs of the country would
be small indeed OF course. If the players secede. the
club-owners will fill up their teams from promising
young players I'm the minor leagues, and continue
business at the old stand"

The baseball situation was In more complicated

It's temporary downfall caused by corrupt gambling
practices several years ago AarmIsts are predicting
disastrous future for the game, unless the players
and club-owners come 10 some amcable arrangement
at the coming meetings. The threatened outbreak
of the players Of the League In the club owners
did not make certain concessions to them has caused
great deal of alarm in circles. but to Q
close observer It seems like great deal more fright
than the existing conditions Of affairs would warrant
II IS generally agreed that should the players throw
aside the yoke Of management and run baseball
their account, temporary injury might be dons
TO the sport. Such movement would bear strong
resemblance to the organization Of the old Union Asso
citation, which came intJ existence with 80 much
noise and evaporated before the public really knew
what 1t all about. OF course the
public for the birth of the organization were to
purify the game and rescue the poor baseball slave
from serfdom. The actual objects were as graspng

The Brotherhood OF players will hold their annual
convention I'm this city on November a. and then
something viii be known about the players intentions
and the makeup of the various teams for next year.
Some think that the players will openly declare war
on the clubOwnes as they meet in convention.
They claim that the club-owners have made PROM

that the players wearied Of such promises, and
that they Will right their wrongs themsalve and To-

owners of League franchises. Most Of the players
laugh at the Ideas of the managers that under the
contract signed by each player this year the clubs
are empowered TO reserve him for another season.
Each side has consulted eminent legal advice with
the usual results of conflicting statement. still, most
of the legal lights to think that the elubowne~
have the law their side, and that niunctons

side of the and such extreme measures may
not have 10 be adopted. Close observers

description OF some new falls sit

We make the following extract:
"Here the waters are shivered into
fleecy spray, whittier and finer than

below an everlasting vapor rises
the incense of the waters to the
waters God. Finally, through
the long, unclouded days, the sun
sends down his beams, and to give
the startling scene its crowning
splendor, wreaths the terror and
the glory In a rainbow halo. On
either sullen bank the extremities
of its arc are anchored, and there
in its many-colored robes of light it
lies outstretched above the abyss
like wreaths of flowers above q
sepulcher." Language as rich in
imagery as this, indicates the white

CURRENT GOSSIP.

The following Is a dispatch from
indianapolis, which while it may
not contain a word OF truth is about
as interesting as anything else that
the reporters of that vicinity invent:
sAll of General HarIison's lnti-
mate friends here agree that John
Wanamaker is certain of place in
his Cabinet. There are two other
men upon whom they ale pretty
well agreed: John F. Swift OF
California, for the Secretary OF the
Interior and General Alger for the
Secretary Of War. 1t is the belief
of the politicians who ale the
closest to General Harrison that be
has absolutely selected Wanamaker
and has practically decided upon
Swift and Alger.
To-day the Times correspondent
talked with two of them Their
names are not given at their request,
for General Harrison is naturally
much adverse to the utterance OF
even a hint as to his purposes about
Offices. Both these gentlemen are
opposed to Mr.. Blaine, yet they
reluctantly admitted that he would
be the next Secretary of State. 81
know that General Harrison dosen't
want him." said one of them, the
other asserting. "but what can he
do?" Mr.. Blaine has at least
three-fourths of the working poll
ticians of the party behind him.
Ii he is left out OF the Cabinet he
and his friends will work mischief,
and General Harrison cannot afford
to begin biz administration with a
large dissatisfied faction of the
party.
aWill Sherman be offended if he
is left out?"
ellis anger is net so potent as
Blaine's. He has not so great
power for mischief, ner has he the
disposition. He is now one Of the
foremost men in the Senate, and
will hold that position all through
Harrison's Administration. Blaine
has no office. This fact, by this
way, has been forcibly brought to
Gen. Harrison's attention. He has
been told verbally and by letter by
a score of Republican politicians
that to leave such a man Blaine
with absolutely nothing to do when
he confessedly desired to enter the
service of the Nation would be a
slight not to be overlooked or for
gIven-that Blame must resent such
a slight. Gen. Harrison has been
reminded, too-and 1t is impossible
TO deny it-that Blaine's supporters
in the Chicago Convention gave the
nomination to him when they might
easily haye defeated him."

Armenians i'm America.

Only a few years ago there were a
score or so of Armenians IN the United
States. Now their number reaches
10000, and still they come. Tins is not
to be wondered at, for sweet is the enjoy
ment of liberty; but far sweeter to them
is the land where they can exercise their
love of industry unmOlested and enjoy
the fruits of their labor to perfection.
They are scattered all over the United
States engaged in various pursuits. Some
are given to farming, some to mechanical
arts, some to weaving silk fabrics, some
to carpet manufacture, some to commerce
and some to the medical studies. OF
these some have had the good fortune to
bring their families with them, while
others are striving to attain the same end.
Some have even allied themselves to
American women, who find them deslr
able husbands on account of their sober
habits, dOmesticity, and kind disposition,
thus showing that they mean to be per-
manent settlers in the land Of their adOp-
ton. Nevertheless, they do not seem to
forget those whom they had left, and try
to help them in every way possible. In
every locality where large numbers OF
them are congregated they have formed
clubs or associations and meet once IA
fortnight for the cultivation of social in
tercOurse and to devise means to assist
their kith and kin in Armenia. All these
clubs have a general ''centre" in London,
England, whose executive board embraces
some of the moss prominent members
of Parliament. -N6a0 York Times.

WISE WORDS.

The shortest way to do many things is
to do only one thing at once.
No one is satisfied with his fortune
nor dissatisfied with his own wit
1t is wiser to prevent quarrel before
hand than to revenge it afterward.
There will always be romance in the
world as long as there are young hearts
in it.
The qualities we possess never make
us so ridiculous rs those We pretend to
have
Books, like proverbs, receive their
chief value from the stamp and esteem of
ages through which they have passed,
Discretion is more necessary 10 women
than eloquence, because they have less
trouble to speak well than to speak
little.
Only the refined and delicate pleasures
that spring from research and education
can build up barriers between different
ranks.
Every day is a leaf in life When the
day dawns it is a blank. There is in
scribed thereon our thoughts, words and
actions.
One of the most etfectual ways of
pleasing and of making ones self loved is
to be cheerful. Joy softens more hearts
than tears.
Ninety-nine per cent. of ambition to
try, and one per cent. Of talent, is all
that is necessary to success in whatever
we undertake.
1t is very pleasant to follow ones in
clinations, but, unfortunately, we cannot
follow them all; they are like the teeth
sown by Cadmus, they spring up, get in
each others way and fight.
Whereas men have many reasons to
persuade. to use them all at once weak
eneth them For it argueth neediness
in every one of the reasons, as if one did
not trust to any of them, but fled from
one to another.

Curious HindOO Notions.

A curious light is thrown on the rural
life of Bengal by the contents of a paper
reprinted lately in the annual report of
the Bombay Anthropological Society,
says the Calcutta Times. From this paper
we are told the following, among other
things: Shouting the name of the king
of birds drives away snakes. Shouting
Ram, Ram, drives away ghosts. Cholera
that attacks on Monday or Saturday ends
fatally, but no cholera that attacks Oh
Thursday. The Towering of bamboos
augurs famine. In tanning, if the fan
strikes the body it should be thrice
knocked against the ground. When Civ
ing aims the giver and receiver should
not be standing on different sides of the
threshold. 1t is bad to pick ones teeth
with ones nails. If snake is killed it
should be burned, for it is a Brahman.
At night the words ''snake" and ''tiger'
should not be used; call them creepcrs
and insects. Do not wake up sleeping
physician. A morning dream always
Genes to pass. Devotion without head
gear is wrong. Iron is a charm against
ghosts. A black cat with a white face is
very suspicious.
