The popularity of our national game of
base ball, particularly i'm the large cities,
can hardly be called in question. Yester-
day the New York and Philadelphia clubs
played An eleven inning game in the latter
city. During the whole of the game two
thousand mon and boys stood in front of
the Worlds bulletin in New York. The
movement of the whole game was exhibi-
ted by means of movable blocks and fig
ures, and every base hit, stolen base and
error was followed with intense interest
by the excited crowd. When the New
Iorks made run the cheers could be
heard blocks away, and when the Phillies
finally won the game the groans Of the dis
appointed were as loud as their early
cheers. Several of the New York dallies
recognize this wonderful enthusiasm over
the game, and issue what they call sport
ing extras late in the afternoon, which
find ready sale among all classes of people.

Tastes Differ As to Pets.

FROM inc LewlstOn journal.
One of Portland's bright young ladies'
has decided taste for studies in natural
history, and woe to the bug, beetle or but
terfiy which comes within her reach. She
does not share in the general aversion of
the reptile family, but handles toads, liz
ards and even snakes faniliarly and fear
lessly. One day last week she was at Peaks
Island with friends, and in their rambles
about the fields and swamps she bagged n
number of specimens. Among them was
green snake about two feet long. The
sight of the squirmish creature evoked
screams from the other feminine members
of the party, but the young naturalist
caught It up and allowed 1t to coil about
her wrist. This was too much for the feel
ing of her friends, however, and after a
while she slipped the snak G into hor pocket
for want Of better accommodations. Pres
emily the snake was fogotten. The party
boarded one Of the Casco Bay company's
boats, and when about half way to the city
great comnotion was suddenly caused
among the passengers by the appearance
ofa green snake crawling upon the deck.
Ladies' screamed and jumped upon the seats
or fed incontnently, and some of the
stcrner sex were somewhat taken by sur
prise at the sight ola serpent i'm that un-
expected place. The young lady, as soon
as she realized the situation, sprang to re-
cover her property, but too late. A boat
hand pitched the reptile overheard, and
science had met with another loss.

sake he may not behold in every

Professional politicians and Office

Blaine might, with advantage to him

ton of gold would continue, and gov

Corporal Tanner is dispensing pensions

partments could not be more inactive
did the one secretary study the mode of
warfare along the Nile and the other
hunt for whale in the waters Of Green
land. In the department of justice
there are no courts until September and
the laws delays have never been a se-
rious consideration. Even old Uncle
Jerry Rusk might with advantage take
a lesson In practical farming among the
grain fields Of the Northwest. He could
smoke his cigar on the broad porch Of
cattle ranch as placidly as in front Of
the Riggs house. With all his secre-
taries thus scattered from the seat of dan
ger, Harrison could peacefullyrecuperate.
He could bring back TO Washington
not only sun-burned and vigorous
body but he could perhaps put some
life into an administration that has as
yet done little TO commend itself TO the
people.

Waguer's ApOtheOSis.

On last Saturday the Wagner festival
opened at Bayreuth, with the produc-
ton of Parsifnl." This opera is given
in this Bavarian town every year regu-
larly during one Of the summer months.
As is usual the attendance was enor-
nous, hundreds being turned away
from the doors. Special trains carrying
thousands Of music-loving people run
from Nuremburg and return after the
performance Is over. During the inter
missions the theatre empties itself, and
the people pour over the delightful
grounds about the theatre where re-
freshments are served. The performance
extends over about six hours. Many
tourists from other countries make this
town of Bayreuth an objective point in
order To witness this wonderful produc-
tion. Its increasing popularity stamps
Il as one of the masterpieces Of the great
est musician of the 10Th century. 1t not
only is credit to the German people to
thus honor the man that was so long
prosecuted, but 1t Is a tribute to the
final triumph of Wagner's own partic-
ular system of musical composition.
His method of expression and his per-
sistent denunciation of all other sys-
TENS, as irremediably false, had aroused
the bitter antagonism Of not only the
German musicians but of other colin-
tries as well. The genius and indomit-
able will Of Wagner, however, together
with his unbounded faith in himself,
finally overcame the prejudices Of the
German people. And here in this small
Bavarian town, in the presence alike
of royalty and common folk, natives
aud foreign born, he even though dead
is meeting his just reward In this musi-
cal exposition of the oft told story of
the Holy Grail.

An Old Horse.

l heard story lately of one of the experiences of a minister, which are sometimes pathetic and some times amusing. An old parson was very much in need of a horse, and the sisters of the flock determined to raise the money to buy him the desired animal. After much exer- tion they raised an amount consid- erably below the estimated price, and the beast acquired was propor- tionately deficient in the qualities which made Buccphalus superior to Rosinante.
 One day when the horse was tied in front of the parsonage, a sport ing man drove by and, seeing the outfit, stopped and remarked to the parson "Well, dominic, that isn't much of an animal the sisters gave you, is it?" Don't say a word say word against the horse," said the parson indignantly, "that's a better beast than my Savior rode into Jerusalem."
 The sport gravely descended from his carriage, examined the horses legs, gAzed into his blinded eyes and looked at his teeth. As he closed the horses mouth and turn ed away, he laconically remarked: Same beast, parson, same beast" St. Paul Pioneer Press.

Warming to Cattlemen.

In the mad rush of cattle to the markets that has been going on this season a we'll posted cattleman reads a lesson that if he reads cor rectly, will result in good to the cattlemen who take advantage of it He says: "Mutton and wool prices are getting about right now with the feeces bringing in the neighborhood of twenty cents and the live stock mrkets going a-beg- ging for sheep meat. Right here is a lesson for the cattlemen, for it is not so long since the same grade of wool was selling for from seven to ten cents per pound and wethers were unsaleable. What was the result? Everything that looked like a sheep went rushing to market ard panic in prices re- suited. In short time the focks of the United States had been re- duced by many million head. We are now feeling the effects of this scarcity. Is itnot a warning to the cattlemen? Crowding to market will soon lead to scarcity. It may appear as if there were just as many cattle in the country as three years ago, but the fact re- mains that they are being thinned out. Figure out the future of the cattle business.

Several meetings of of the heavy operators have been held lately, and nine of the largest concerns have, it is said, placed prices on their plants. It is report ed that it will require $13,O00,000 to swing the deal, including the aggregate of stock the dealers are willing to take. The headquarters of the company will be in New York.

Breeding Beef Cattle.

If any class of fine stock breed CTS have been having a harder time than any others in the last few years it has been those operating in the beef breeds of cattle. Their business has been simply in a dis heartening condition for a long time, and as result a great many have gone out of it entirely. Every thing considered, this time of trial has shown a great deal of financial solidity among breeders for while many have failed, the proportion has perhaps been as small as in any other line connected in any way with agriculture. As to the imme- diate outlook of beef breeders, it cannot be said to be fattering. They cannot enjoy such degree of pros perity as is desirable until the beef industry again becomes profit b!e to farmers. When this will occur 1t IS not easy to say, but the time certainly is not here yet. There has been so much of disappoint- ment connected with the cattle busi- ness that great change will have to take place before confidence is so restorods as to place beef breeders as a class in position to make money.-National Stockman.
