President Nimick left the city mysteriously
yesterday, and left everybody guessing as to
whether or not he had gone in pursuit of more
new players. An official of the club, however,
stated that no more money is to be expended
on new players until those now engaged are
tested The official also said that all engage
ments already made for players will be fulfilled
as far as the club is concerned.

ESPECIAL TELEGRAA TO THE DIsPArczi
PHILADELPHIA, May 29.-Young Beam,
who claims Lstrobe, Pa, as his home, and
his occupation as that of baseball pitcher,
made his philadelphia debut to-day with
the Pittsburg team, which is down on the
cards as one of the mysteries of the nine
teenth century. It took rine of the Phila-
delphia players just two innings to get the
hang of the young mans delivery, and then
they jumped onto him with both feet. 1t was
in the third inning when the slaughter began,
and then the entire nine came to the bat two
OF them twice. Those of the local men who
did not hit him were sent to first on balls, and
when the smoke cleared away seven runs had
been scored on three doubles. two triples, three
bases on balls. four stolen bases, and muffed
ball thrown by Kuehne.
A REAL SLAUGHTER.
While the Pittsburg men were being retired
in their half of the inning the local nine was
gathering its second wind and in the fourth
they again Lit onto the ball for five singles,
which, with a wild pitch. two stolen bases and
errors by Dunlap, Carroll and Kuehne. netted
five more runs Beam pulled himself together
in the fifth inning and changed his pace from
. slow TO speedy ball, which puzzled the
home batsmen. and as a result but four singles
and a double were made during the balance of
the game.
Sanders and Schriver were the battery for
Philadelphia, and both men never did prettier
work. For six innings the Virginian kept the
visitors down to four hits, whom he eased up on
his delivery and was hit for three singles and
a double and a triple
TWAS VERY .oNE-sIDED.
OF the game little can be said. 1t was one
sided, tedious, and utterly devoid of special in
terest, the only features being the battery
work of Sanders and Schriver, the fielding of
Sunday, Maui, Smith and Irwin, and the bat
ting of the locals in the third and fourth in
nings. Pittsburg scored two runs in the seventh
on singles by Hanlon, Becl1ley and Dunlap,
passed ball and wild pitch, and Sanders wild
Throw to Irwin. In the ninth base on balls,
CaIrolTs triple, and Dunlap's sacrifice yielded
them two more runs. The attendance was
S,200. and at no time did the spectators grow
enthusiastic. Curry's umpiring was fair and
impartial Score:

Small hands show one who asplres

The palm indexes the temperament,

Large hands are those that do or

The soft hand is often the possession
Of one VINO is born tired, and who is
hence chronically indlsposed to heavy
or continuous labor.
Slim hands, warm and dry, will sug
gest raplditv Of motion, but with little
muscular strength, and one of a warm
ly sympathetic disposition.
Long hands indicate an application,
love and performance Of dctalls-a great
care for and ability in the lninutie of
ones operations or thoughts.
The slim hand, if lean, dry and cold,
shows a low vitality, little strength,
uncertain temper, little Sympathy
sometimes seliishness, irritation and
cowardice.
The plastic hand, which is soft and

MOlnely Philosophy.

Frettlng cures no evil, it is true, but
it sometimes relieves the lnonotony Of
too much happiness. $ ~
1t is advisable to put our heart into
whatever work we may have to perform,
but it is wise to think we'll before we
put our money in.
When person becomes too good to
overlook the faults Of the unfortunate,
then it is that he makes the error which
loses to him the glory of his goodness.
Decisions are the natural consequen'
ces of ignorance. A lack of knowledge
OF things necessitates the invention of Il
theory to account for its being.
The chronically unhappy man, who
persists IN trying to sour humanity,
should set himself to his closet with his
woes, and give the sunshine u chance
to warm his nelghbors.
A man with red nose is always sus-
pected of men. He may also be wrong
ed of men, for 1t may be that he is, in
stead of heavy drinker, sufferer from
painful malady.
When you SEGA person trying to play
the fool, end you hear 1t remarked of
him that he is fool, you may take it
for granted that he was created for the
part. -
One strong, we'll directed blow sends
the nail truer to its home than do Il
dozen coaxing taps. One fit and ear
nest word carries more weight than a
whole yard of high flown eloquence.
The trouble with people nowadays is
they give too much attention to the ex-
terror, to the detriment of the interior.
They think more of the com.non sack
than they~do of the grain. The conse-
quence is there is much poor grain pa
rading in fine sacks. "
When tossed on the angry waves OF
a sea Of trouble good motto is: "Nsy-
err give up the ship" But when the
ship has tendency to sink, it is wise
move to swim out, and not 90 down
with the wreck.

To Complete the Panama Canal.

A rumor is afioat that the Tehuan-
tepec Ship Railway Company is con-
sidering a proposal to build a ship
railway in place of the unfinished part
of the Panama canal The scheme is
for the Ship Railway Company to build
a ship railway over the forty-two
miles of the uncompleted canal route.
The estimated cost of building the ca
nal for this distance is $3.50. 900, 600;
but it is said that the ship railway can
be built for $40, OOO 600. 1.-THE French
Government would give its guarantee
the possibility of the stockholders get
ting some of their money back would
give popularity to this new enterprise.
At present the condition of canal mat
tiers at Panama is wholly unsatisfac-
tory; the stoppage of work. and con-
sequent loss of employment have led
to a good deal of trouble with the la
borers, although vigorous efforts have
teen made to assist those out of en-
ployment. and send them south or
to nearby coast ports.-Demorest' 8

Drainage About Farm Houses.

The house is generally placed upon
slight elevation to afford drainage.
but a great mistake every way is made
if the natural means for carrying off
surplus water are not supplemented by
underdrains to carry it off beneath the
surface. There should always be a
drain through which to throw out
slops. and it will be easy to run into
this side branches to drain land on
either side. The idea that slop drain
must be made tight to prevent the
inlet of other water or its own absorb
ton by the soil is a common mistake.
II the joints are not closely sealed. as
in the city sewer. the drain will be as
effective. and probably last longer

ROOTS OF PLANTS.
The Value of Different Crops for Enris min &
Farm Lands.

The Value of Different Crops for Enr1s mini
Farm Lands.
The experiment station of the Storrs
school has made some interesting and
very useful examinations of the amount
of roots of plants found at different
depths in the soil. This amount has
an important bearing on the value of
different crops for enriching the land
on which they grow. Clover appears
to stand far above all others, for in
additional to the mechanical benefit of
its roots, it was found that the roots
and stubble-that is, what is left after
the moving large percent
ages of the three most valuable in
gradients of plant food. and at the
same time large amount in quantity
is left in the soil In one instance. a
heavy crop left little over three dry
ions of stubble and roots. containing
$50 pounds of nitrogen. IL Of phos-
phoric acid and II of potash. The re-
port of the station states that it would
require 1, 100 pounds of nitrate of soda,
400 pounds of dissolved bone-black,
and $50 pounds of muriate of potash, to
furnish the same amount of fertilizing
materials; but these materials would,
however. have the advantage of being
used at once by the growing plants.
and before the decaying roots and
stubble could supply them.
Wheat and other grain crops as a
class, were found of little value for en-
riching the land by their roots. Tim
othy-stubble and roots together, with
the young after-growth-was found to
possess much enriching value, which
was mostly confined quite near the
surface. In the cow pea. three-fourths
of the roots were within six inches of
the surface, although a portion went
down more than three feet. In tim
othy, the difference in favor of the six
inches of the surface was still greater.
and greater still with buckwheat,
where the upper six inches of the soil
held twenty-five times as much of the
roots as the next six inches.-COuntry

Come down." he yelled through

There were ominous murmurs
among the crew at this brutal COM
mand. for in all their experience they
had never known the same man to be
asked to clew more than one pinnacle
at time. The Mate paid no attention
to the growls other than casting q
menacing look at the men.
The storm was now at its height
The ship rolled so that the tips of the
yard-arms touched the seething waters
on either side. It was such storm as
is quite common on the lakes, but it is
never seen in the tropics or in the
ocean anywhere.
"Aye, aye, sir!" shouted back In
gram, and watching his chance, he
slipped off the end of the yard-arm in
to the smothering surf. A cry of
horror arose from the men.
HE prefers death to staying on
board this ship" said one of the men.
