BROWNS ON A STRIKE.
The Cause of the Quarrel Between Rob
inson and Won der Abe.

The Cause of the Quarrel Between Hob-
inson and Won der Abe.
The old adage that ''too many cooks spoil
the broth" found practical application in
the case of the Browns management. II
Mr.. Won der Abe would let Comiskey alone
IN the management of the club he would
always get good service Thursday Robin
son sent boy over to his room before the
game to get pair of pants which he wished
TO wear during the game He gave the boy
a note to the gate-keeper asking him TO
pass the lad through. When the messenger
returned he found the gar. barred. Robin
son, hearing of this, at out and ex-
pressed his opinion of the -Ate-keeper IN no
measured tones. This came to Won der
Ahes ears during the game, and coming
down nearthe players bench he called out
to Robinson:
"What the - do you mean by talking
that way to my gate-keeperl 1t viii cost
you s25n
He then proceeded to give the second
baseman great tongue-lashing before the
crowd Robinson asked him 10 desist, tell
ing him that there was better place for
such language. After the game the players
took sides with Robinson and resolved not
to go TO Kansas City unless the fine was re-
mitted. When the bus drove up to take
them to the depot they refused for some
time to get into it, but finally decided 70 go,
Robinson accompanying them. Arrived at
the depot, they refused TO geton their train,
the Chicago Burlington & Quincy, which
pulled out with Chris and Eddie Won der
Abe, Comislley and Duffee aboard. The
other players remained behind. George
Munson finally induced them to go by the
Missouri Pacific which left at Gals. Robin
son remained behind. he was on the strsst
yesterday apparently not disturbed. He
claims that he will play in the Cali
fornia League if the fine is not RENTED.
Yesterdays game at Kansas City shows
how the players feel about the matter. Rob
inson admits that he was wrong in talking
as he did to the gatekeeper, aud is willing
TO apologize. He has taken excellent care
Of himself so far and has been playing great
ball.-St. LOUIS Globe Democrat.

A Rap at the Character of Racing Pro-
grammes Now Given.
DIR. Bruce, secretary of the Lexington
Association and Louisville Jockey Club, in
the current issue Of the Live Stock Record
makes a strong bid for the protection OF the
interests Of the high grade of thorou ghbred
runners. He says
We think or jockey clubs viii have to
call halt ub3n the character Of racing now
given IL they would not destroy the breed
ing interests and value Of a good race-ho
We are fully aware there is disposition
upon the part of our clubs TO cater and give
short dash races, less than a mile While
this is to be greatly condemned, there is a
still greater evil TO be remedied-that is, a
want of at least one race a day of weight for
age. II the present programme system
continues a man had better go and buy
some half-bred horses, costing from 500
20 $500. for they will be Of more value than
a $4,000 horse be is unable 70 run in the
selling races and handicaps
In the selling races he can not afford 10
start valuable horse, and in the handicaps
his horse is 50 heavily weighted he can
hardly win. and If he goes runs a great
chance of breaking him down. In most OF
the programmes a good horse can not win
more than one purse race in a meeting, and
in many Of the stakes is heavily penalized
for winning.
II the present programmes are 10 be con-
tinued it will destroy the price of good
horses and make the common ones worth
equally as much money. To race a good
selling platter is worth more than first
class horse. The former you can run in
selling races, back and protect, while the
other 1t will cost more to protect him than
the purse or money TO be won over him.
II is in the power Of the dihereht clubs to
check the number of this class of racing,
either by rule or in their programmes. II
they have the best interests Of the turf or
high class turf horses aud breeders inter-
ests at heart, they will call halt. In every
programme there should be at least one
race each day weight for age.

Fashions FadS,

The new long nitts just brought out
for wear with dinner gowns have no
fingers at all, but have double row of
silk embroidery around the top of the
baud and the edge of the thumb.
When panels are used on shirt they
must be either in narrow gOre-shape, or
of pleatings not stiff1y tackled. as was so
long the style, but left to fly apart at
each motion of the wearer.
Fans are larger than ever, and those
of peacock feathers and of gathered
gauze. caught in a puff at the top OF
each stick 10y a tiny bow, are among the
newest and most admired styles, eSpeci-
ally for evening use.
Something new in furS is the sealSllin
pelerine, square and short at the back,
with its fringe of tails just reaching to
the waist, and square and OlOng in front
as to come near to the knee, and give
the effect of a stole.
Cream-white, red and gold, with fawn
russell. olive, brown and green, are the
admired combinations of the season for
cloth gowns. Yet there are many who
cling to the mixture of green i'll all
shades, with the dull pink known as old

upon. and when that is in its mouth,
but not till then, the saliyary glands
begin to aid deglutition. The functions
of snakes tongue have also been the
subjects of popular error. Job speaks
of the viper's tongue Staying one, and
Shakespeare is full of similar remarks.
The tongue is really very delicate Or
gan OF touch, for the eyes are so placed
that the snake cannot see in front or
below, and by means of its tongue 1t
literally feels its way. The stories of
tWO-headed snakes owe their origin to
the existence of species, BungaraS
faciatus, which possesses an abrupt
rounded tail that is sometimes mistaken
for second head. The popular notion
that every snake is poisonous is of
course absurd, but the proportion
of poisonous to harmless snakes is
much less than is generally supposed.
In India only one genus in ten is poison
Gus, and the same proportion is proba-
bly, accurate as to individuals also. In
all Southern India there are only twelve
kinds of poisonous snakes, the largest.
being the hamadryad. which reaches
fifteen feet in length. A bite from one
of these would probably produce death
in three minutes: it has the reputation
OF being fierce and ready to attack OH
the slightest m0lestation. The cobra is
timid; the charmerS, who play pipe i'll;
front OF it, do not attract it by the music,
for it is nearly deaf, but by the move
ment from side to side, which is fol-
lowed by the snake. The bites of some
species of poisonous snakes are not fatal
at all. and merely produce little pain
and swelling Of the injured member.
