A Coming Champion.

1t may be thai before this year ends will have
Ted Pritchard and Jem Smith here. The former
che phenomenal young man who has been
knocking everybody out in England. He is
clever Young fellow, without doubt but whether
OK not he will hold his own here remains to be
seen. No doubt he can get plenty of backing to
hight Dempsey, and if he comes to this country the
first thing he will do, think, will be to throw
down the gauntlet TO the Nonpareil. Smith has
been intending to visit America a long time, and
doubtless he comes here, he will gather in quite
pile of dollars. 1t is some time since he cid any,
or two. 1t may be taken for granted that Smith
will challenge the winner of the Smith-Kilrain
fight, IL it comes off, and If he does 1t is reasonable
TO xpect that it will take place in this country
And there is jackson; he, TOO, will want to fight
wanting to fight anybody at all. It. therefore
seems as If there will be a busy fall among the
pugillsts. At any rate, If Sullivan and Kilrain
light there will be several other battles of equal
Importance, and the object Of ALL Of course, will

Thursdays Great Game ut Clevelnnd-Mc-
Aleer's Remarkable Work.
CLEVELAND, O., June 22-The wonderful
exhibition given Thursday by the New Yorks
and the home club has warmed the blood of
the old-timers to fever heat. The equal of the
game has never been played in the town.
Again and again the New Yorks were deprived
of runs by almost miraculous fielding, and on
the other hand the Clevelands were disposed of
with equally brilliant plays. The result of the
game has been shown in the different conduct
of those who have been continuously sneering
at the clubs success. They are no longer at
tributing it to luck, but are glad to acknowl-
edge it is the result of good playing. The Gi.
ant Killers set the pace in Thursdays game,
and in spite of the fact that 1t was swift and
rapid. the Giants came to 1t nobly and dupli.
Gated science with science, skill with skill and
brilliancy with brilliancy.
McAleer during the week has tied Jimmy
Fogarty's phenomenal record of ten chances In
one game and now "Mc' is waiting the oppor-
tunity to go Jimmy one better. 1t was in We'd
nesday's game that McAleer made his phenom-

How They Sfund.

The weekly record, which follows, shows
that Boston is still going upward. The Bean.
eaters, undoubtedly. are making tight grip OF
their hold. The Clevelands continue to keep
near the front, despite the fact that they have
had the Giants to battle against this week
The other teams are going along as usual
Chicago is probably shade better and so is
New York. Following is the correct standing
of the clubs up to date:

Dempsey and La Blanche.

There is one thing that has characterized Jack
Dempsey dnring his pugilistic career more than
anything else; tlrat is, his carefulness in getting
into condition. Ut is true that he was neglectfuI
in this respect when he met Donovan, but gener-
ally speaking he is very careful and painstaking
young fellow. Well, he is training very carefully
for his proposed battle with La Blanche, and
think that he W ill need all the good training that
he can get jack Hallihan arrived from Frisco
the other day, and lie states that Dempsey is a
trffe worse tn an he was when he met the Marine
before. This may and IL may not be true, but If it
is true 1 still think that Dempsey will
not have a very hard task in settling the
Marine. The latter is plucky and can stand
any amount of punishment hut he is too short in
the arms to give much to Dempsey. The latter is
anxious to win and he has all the best of the con-
test to start with because he is facing man whom
he has be; Iten before. But if Dempsey is not the
man he was what about the Mariner He, too. has
been living fast life during recent years. and his
roamings around cannot have improved him phvs-
ically by any means. However. the battle will be
inter esting one and when more is learned about
the con dltion of the principals may have a few
more opinions to offer.

another fight between Jem Carney and McAu-

nitely that he won't come here to fight
anybody, and the lightweights here re-
fuse to cross the Atlantic to meet Carney
on the other side. This is pity because
nothing would be of greater interest than good
encounter between McAuliffe and Carney. The
strangest feature, however is the fact that while
McAuliffe will go to England and box Carney a
limited number of rounds he won't go and fight
him to a finish. But dom know what prompts
Meyer to challenge Carney. Meyer has not proven
yet that he is in the same class Carney and the

The Young Local Pitchers.

There is general desire to know what is to
be done with the three young pitchers recently
signed by the home club. So far they have not
been tried on the local grounds yet, and we
may expect to see them in the box this week.
1t is not to be expected that all three will be
retained. Altogether the club has eight pitchers
under contract and it is certain that no club
will carry that number. However, the ques-
tion who will be dispensed with? asked local
official that question the other day and he gave
me TO understand that nothing definite is
known about the matter. The Washington
team Will be here this week and very likely one
or two of the young men will be tried. At any
rate il Morris retains the form he showed on
Thursday there will be little use for the young
sters Morris really did well, and the players
and the public were extremely glad of it. II
Conway could regain his old form the local
club would soon make Its way toward the top.
The season is not far gone yet and with four
good pitchers the club would make mp lost

Some years ago the French government
sent mitrailleuse in charge of Mr. Chefneux
as a present to the king. The weapon was
taken to pieces, compactly packed, and
reached its destination several days ahead of
the traveller. Menelik had carefully studied
the mechanism of firearms, and, to Mr.. Chef
neux's great establishment, he found that the
king, with the aid of picture of mitrail-
leuse, had properly put together and mount
ed the weapon.
Menelik's kingdom includes not only the
domain of the late King John, but also his
own country, where he had an army of 100,-
600 men. About one-fourth of them carry
improved arms. He does not like missiona-
ries, and in 1885 he practically imprisoned
two Swedish missionaries in his chief town
for ten months and then sent them back to
the coast. He has since expelled all the
French Catholic and German missionaries
from his dominion.

Its Quarter MilIennial Was Lately Cele-

The first church of Quincy, Mass, which
has just celebrated its 250th anniversary, has
had memorable and ever changing history.
1t was in 1889, after the Punishment of Wheel
wright, that the inhabitants of Mount VOL
laston took steps towards establishing an in
dependent church 1t was agreed, in order
not to deprive the first church of Boston of
influential support, that those living at the
Mount should pay as church rates sixpence
per acre yearly for such land as was within a
mile of water and threepence per acre for
that which was further Off, for the support
of the Boston church. 1t is understood that
the original covenant was signed at the first
meeting, Sept. lG, 1889, by William Thomp-
son, pastor; Henry Flynt, teacher; George
Rose, Stephen Kinsley, elders; John Dassett,
William Potter, Martin Saunders, Gregory
Belcher.
Mr. Thompson was ordained either on Sept.
81 or Nov 10, 1889. Mr.. Flynt was ordained
on March II, 1910. The church has had
eleven pastors, the average length of pastor
ate being more than twenty-five years, the
longest forty-ive and the shortest eight.

NATIONAL CONVENTION.

The sixteenth annual convention of
the National Woman's Christian Tenn
perance Union meets in Battery ID,
Chicago, November s, and continues
through the 18th, with meetings of
special interest on the Sabbath day.
The society represents over two hun
dred thousand earnest-hearted women
who are devoted to works of philan-
throphy along lines that build up the
temperance reform. That their view of
this reform is very broad is proved from
the fact that they have forty distinct
departments of work, under the gen
eral heads of Preventive, Educational,
Evangelistic, Social, Legal, and the
department of Organization. Through
their influence, scientific temperance in
struction has been secured by law in
all the territories in all schools support
ed in whole or in part from the United
States treasury (namely; West Point,
Annapolis, the Indian schools, army
post schools, etc., and in twenty-seven
States the same laws are now in opera
ton. They have special lines of work
for soldiers, sailors, miners, and all
classes who are in circumstances of es-
pecial temptation so far as pure and
wholesome habits of life are concerned.
They have network of juvenile socie-
ties extending from Tampa Bay to Pu-
get Sound. They have systematic
course of reading for mothers, and
mothers meetings are feature of the
local auXiliares. In these heredity and
hygiene are subjects especially consid-
cred. They have publishing house in
Chicago which sends out about 60.000,-
600 pages annually, and prints the
Union Signal, which has sixty thousand
subscribers, and is the chief paper ever
edited and published by women. Their
gospel work has permeated the nation,
and was never more earnestly pursued
than now. In the social realm they
seek especially to enlist the influence of
young women, and to hold up the stand
ard of total abstinence for others sake.
The department of the White Cross and
the White Shield, which is one of the
largest, has called especial attention to
the securing of laws for the protection
of women, and to the equalizing of the
standard of an upright life making it
the same for men as it has always been
for women. This society has about ten
thousand local auXiliaries, and represent
tatives from every State and territory
will be in attendance at the coming con-
vention.
