 Games-s Standing of the Clubs.
 NEW YORK, April 22.--There was an other League and Brotherhood battle in this city. The larger crowd attended the Players game to see the the home team beaten and a smaller crowd saw the League men win.
 It was perfect day for baseball, and 2,03 spectators went to Brotherhood Park to witness the second game between the Now York and Philadelphia Players clubs.
 The Ewing brothers, Buck and John, made up the battery for the Giants Long Johns curves were batted rather freely in the first half of the game. Then he settled down, but the change came to late, for the Quakers had too long lead.
 Little Shindle, the ex-Oriole, made tive home runs and Q three-bagger. A delegation from Typographical Union No. was present and cheered the play CTS uproariously.
 The crowd at the Polo Grounds was small, only 425 spectators being pres ent, but the game was as neat a one as has been played this season.
 Blunders were few and brilliant plays numerous. The New Workers played a good game throughout and won after Q close fight,
 Glasscock got an ovation when he brought home three runs in the fourth inning. Scanlon's work at first base was great improvement on anything he has so far done.
 The young giant Rusie pitched again and did excellent work, striking out 18 Quaker batsmen.
 Reports from other cities show that the second day of the season brought out fair crowds. The following is the result of the games:

WHAT AILs FARM7NGa

u ID not in the New England States alone
that farm lands have decreased In value un-
til they can be bought very ohesply. The
same condition of affairs II said to exist In
the great State of New York. The case of
one town about fifty miles from the city of
New York IL a notable one. 1t has within
its limits four railroad stations, four tels-
graph offices and Eve postofices. The rail-
road gives seven trains daily to and from
New York, one Of which makes the run in
one hour and twsnty-nine minutes. There
is within radius of fifteen miles two large
''home markets" /. O., manufacturing towns
with total population of 10000. The town
is well provided with churches and schools.
Notwithstanding all these advantages the
town 10 decreasing in population and the
value of farms ID steadily falling. This is
shown by sales made within year or two.
One farm which twenty years ago would
have sold quickly for $4,000 was sold less
than year ago for $500. Another farm
of over 100 acres with grist mill and water
power, which twenty years ago was thought
to be good security for loan of "a 500 by q
savings bank, was recently sold by the mort
gagee (the bani) for $500. Another farm
was put mp at auction and not bid was
scored. In short, there Is hardly . farm in
tho town which, If put upon the market at
prevailing prices, would bring the cost of the
buildings. Not only is purely agricult ural
property growing less valuable, but small
properties with few acres attached, reason
ably convenient to the railroads, are simi.
larly affected. Several of such were mort.
gagged to the banks, which have sold or are
offering for sale places at price less than
the face of the mortgage. Those places OF
this class that are In the hands Of private
parties can be bought for less than the cost
of the buildings.
Of course there is some general reason fol
this state of things. It furnishes good op'
portunity for the free traders to say thai
protection has done it. The farmers know
better, but that makes no difference.

A Newspaper omce Romance.


All newspaper work is not either prosaic
tain sentimental episodes sandwiched in be-
tween the humdrum and the red fire. Per
instance: Two evenings after the late at
tempt of young Hyde to murder his para
mour, followed by his suicide in Kansas
City, tall, good looking, well dressed and
digniied gentleman called at the exchange
room of the Pioneer Press. He wished to
look at the Kansas City Times. It was CIV
| en- him-the Sunday edition-and then the
scribe turned to his work; the gentleman
| commenced reading the paper attentively.
Absorbed in his work, the writer took no
heed of his visitor until deep sob burst
from the latter, and he was seen to be in
| tears. He then laid the paper down on the
| desk, opened at the two-column account of
| the tragedy. The matter was illustrated by
| two cuts-pictures of Hyde and the guilty
| woman. The latter was beautiful.
"Rathsr fine looking woman," said the
visitor.
"Indeed she is"
"Would you mind selling me this papers
| he continued. 81 was unable to find copy
at any of the news stands"
"We do not as a rule sell exchanges, but il
| 1t is particularly interesting to you l guess
you can take it along without pay. Is il
| really Important"
"Yes, would like it," replied the stran'
ger, and tears coureed freely down his
cheeks. "You really think the woman is
beautifula"
"Yes, if am a competent judge"
"Her beauty was her ruin. That women
| was my wife,"
| Under the circumstances he really seemed
| more entitled to the paper than the exchange
room. He carried it away, folding it fierce
| ly as though he were wringing the neck Of
| her would be assassin and muttering few
| inarticulate curses on the dead mans name

A Wild Ride I'm q Caboose.


A thrilling page from the lives of the
frontier brakemen is furnished from the Den
yer and Rio Grsnde, in which Bob Murtle is
the central character. On a recent Saturday
the regular freight that plies between the
metropolis and the little mining camp on
the suburbs of Oro footed itself out of town
and disappeared along the winding banks OF
the Roaring Forks. One station after an
other was reached, and Tennessee Pass, with
its rather torturous stretch, was reached.
At this point the shelper" was summoned,
and was to have been linked between the ca
boose and the last of the freight cars. The
caboose was accordingly detached and put
aside for the admission of the second loco
motive. While this was being done noun
tain breeze began to whistle, and the caboose
started with the grade toward the valley of
the Eagle. Brakeman Murtle mounted it
with the skill of an equestrian and put down
the brake but the beam broke, leaving him
| and his runaway steed to the mercy of the
| grade. With each link it gathered speed,
| and the car shot down with the fury of an
avalanche. Murtle clung to his position az
| the caboose swung around short curves and
finally reached Mitchell, by which it paced
| at sixty miles an hour.
The situation was serious and turning tc
| a passenger, he ordered him to jump. This
! was promptly vetoed, however, whereupor
| Murtle picked up the voyager and landed
| him in some six feet of snow upon the mar.

As DIR. CROSBY SEES m.

As DR. CROSBY SEES IT.
DR.. Howard Crosby of New York, il .
man who thinks and is not afraid to say
what he thinks. At the last meeting of the
Presbyterian union he had som ething to say
about matter which is rapidly growing in
interest and importance. He boldly declared
that the people Of this country have of late
been subjected to an educational craze, in
which they have forgotten and overrun the
limits of American principles, both in the
matter Of teaching of religion by the State
and the teaching of the higher branches Of
learning. He continued: believe the
best thing that could be done with the Nor-
NAL College would be to make it grand
central police station, and the best use that
could be made of the College of the City OF
New York would be to make 1t prison fol-
stboodlers." Half of our, public schools
could be done away with. The common
schools should teach the youth to read, to
write, to cipher, and to know the meaning
of the American constitution. To call a
school atheistic because 1t does not teach re.
ligion is hardly fair. The Church is the
only teacner OF relig1on, supplemented OF
course by the family. The State teach re.
ligions I should like to see the State gel
more religion before it teaches It'll As soon
as we begin to teach religion in the public
schools we give the Jew right to teach hil
religion there, and the Roman Catholic {
right to teach his religion there, and the
Hohammedan, If enough of his people wers
here to make 1t possible, the right to teach
his religion there. We may teach morality
and should do so, but not religion.
The number of those who will agree with
DR.. Crosby In his ideas is, we believe, rapid
ly increasing. There is q growing feeling
that the State is doing too much for tn,
higher education of some of the young peo
pie. and that there is no real profit in 1t
The matter is sure to be more and NOR,
widely and warmly discussed.

"This door has patent spring; please let

Such was the sign that greeted the eyes of

had not proven satisfactory was palpable by

knew that 1t was to be game without linn
it. mentioned the state of my finances to
Law, but he told nae to take a hand and said
that he would back me to any amount. I am
willing to lose $50, 600 or $4,000 tonight,
he said, and tomorrow will tell you my
reason So the game started and I stayed In
hngging the shore pretty close and getting
startled every once in while when some one
went 81 900 blind. When we quit at day break
I had won about 81 900, but Law had lost ten
times that amount. The next day met him.
4 will tell you, Frank, he said, why I lost
that money. i wanted Vanderbilt to think
was a sucker, and so played like one. The
result was that to-day I sold him lot of

ever expected to get from him. DON'T you
