Those who saw yesterdays football match
at Exposition Park had nothing to COM
plain about, as .a- as seeing fun was con-
cerned. There were lots OF fun, lively and
exciting fun. The contest was by long odds
the best that has been seen in Pittsburg, as

be too far advanced in stoicism to enjoy

raw and damp. Despite this fact however,
there was good attendance, and an exceed

THE OPPOSING TEAMS.
The opposing teams were an eleven of "afl
Pittsburg' and the eleven OF the Allegheny
Athletic Association. The former were gotten
together by Dan Barr, and he deserves good
deal of credit for getting together such strong
aggregation. They did not win, but they kept
tie other fellows aw!ully busy and made them
plav for all they were worth. The Athletics
played better game than on any previous oc-
casiOn and if they continue to improve as they
have been doing they will become . very formi-
dable team. Little" Valentine crowned him
self with glory and proved that he is most
resolute and clever player. Fry. Moorhead and
Thompson also played we'll ID. Barr played

was some free exchange of opinions and the
contest was of the fiercese kind.

and judge for yourself:
The self binding reaper, which sold
for 1915 in 1880, is sold for $3.50 in
1890. The seeder, which cost S35 in
1880, is worth but Sl3 in 1890
Pumps which were worth Sl5 in 1880
sell at &c in 1890. Like reductions
are notable in nearly all things used
in agricultural work. Barb wire,

Debt Is q Blessing Indeed.
Benjamin Butterworth has long been
recognized as a man of the most emi-
nent ability. What other man could
so ably fulfill the duties of three posi-
tions, each of which might we'll claim
his entire time and attention? Ben
jamin is Congressman from the First
Ohio district but his duties to his
trans-Rhenish constituency do not pre-
vent him from making very acceptable
secretary of the greatest international
exposition ever undertaken. He is also
political exhorter-at-large for the Re
publican party. In his last-named
capacity Benjamin recently went into
the rural regions of Iowa to instruct the
agriculturists about the straight and
narrow political paths in which they
should go. He explained very salts.
factorily to himself that a mortgage
which the average farmer has hither-
to regarded as opposed to his inter
ests is in reality very good thing,
indeed. His view is also concurred
in by that peculiar political phenome-
non. Senator Ingalls,, OF Kansas Sena-
tor Ingalls,, too. believes that mort
cages are all right He claims to have
experimental with the mortgage indus,
| try and with most excellent results.
The testimony of these two eminent Re,
| publican lights seems to indicate that
| a popular misrepresentation exists con-
corning mortgages. Ingalls, says he haa
made money by mortgaging other peo-
ple's property. Now all that is required
to make the Kansas farmer prosperous
| is for him to devise a means by which
he can mortgage his neighbor's property
and keep from mortgaging his own
| There is the whole secret of success.
theoretically it is easy enough, and
Sentaor Ingalls, himself is a living ex.
| ample of its entire practicability.
Farmers, therefore, who expect to raise
mortgages on their own farms ought te
be careful to plant mortgages on other
/ people's propertY.@Chicago Nail
