GAMES AT THE BAY.
The San FranciscoS Win Their Third
Straight From Oakland.

SAN FRANCISCO, June 14.-The Oak
land club lost both games to-day through
few costly errors. Sommers pitched
for the Colonels in the morning, and was
in excellent form, holding down the
Friscos to five scattered hits. In the
fifth inning the bases became filed with
Frisco runners, through errors and Pop
SWEET brought three men home by a
three-base hit, giving the Friscos the
game by a score of to 8.
In the afternoon game Fitzgerald, the
new left-handed pitcher, was in the box
for Oakland. Although not in pitching
trim, he made a good showing. He has
nice curves, but did not use much speed
to-day. The Friscos punched their hits,
and won by a score of to 4. The hits
made off Cobb were scattered.

BERNE, June IA horrible accident
occurred on the Muenchepstein and
Bale Railway to-day through the collapse
of bridge beneath heavily loaded ex-
cursion train. The train was crowded
with people, on their way to attend a
musical fete. Sixty persons were killed
outright, while hundreds were injured.
Two engines and the first car plunged
into the river, and all the passengers in
the car were drowned. Two cars re-
manned suspended from the bridge. All
the train men were killed. Thirteen cars
were saved.
The musical fete at Muenchenstein was
abandoned as soon as the news of the ac-
cident arrived, and hundreds of villagers
Ihurried to the scene to assist in rescuing
the victims.
The bridge was an iron skeleton struct-
ure, which was considered well built and
substantial. The only apparant reason
for the collapse Of the bridge is that the
train left the rails and threw it's entire
weight on one side of the bridge.

shoes Find rhsir n1ates

A very remarkable shoe story has been
brought to light. About four years ago
Dosser Bros. bought stock of shoes
from Ziegler Bros, in Philadelphia,
and some time after the shoes had ar
rived they discovered box that con-
ta1ned two shoes that were both for the
same foot They supposed that some
one had got the wrong shoes and would
ind 1t out and return them and correct
che mistake, but this was not done, and
the shoes were marked odd and put back
on the shelf, where they remained for a
long time.
About two years ago Mrs. S. S. Lut-
rell came to this place from Washington,
bringing with her pair of Ziegler
shoes purchased in that place. On her
arrival she discovered that she had two
shoes for the same foot, and the distance
being too great for her to send them
bacl. she left them with R. NJ. May, of
this place. The odd shoes had been in
Mr.. Mays store for about two years
when last week his wife decided that
she would try to wear them, and finding
she could not use them gave them to
Mrs. A. j. Patterson, who brought them
to Dosser Bros, thinking they might
send them to the factory and have them
mated. They examined the shoes and
recognized them as being the identical
pattern of the odd shoes they had in
stock, when further investigation
proved that they were the same lot,
number, and corresponded in every par
ticular.
These shoes had been manufactured in
Philadelphia-one lot shipped to Wash
ington city, the other to Jonesboro, and
after four years time the shoes were
mated, having been shipped in different
directions and about 500 miles apart

A Sidewalk of Pins.

Ansonia, Conn, will have almost a
unique pavement, if one of her citizens
carries his ideas into execution. He is
president of a brass pin company, and
intends rebuilding the sidewalk in front
of his home with pins. He has at the
company's shop some twenty barrels of
odd and imperfect pins, the accumulation
of years, and these he will utilize.
On the corner of Broad and Pine
streets, some years ago, several barrels
of pin scraps were placed. The neces-
sary factor in this style of sidewalks,
corrosion, accomplished the rest, and
now there exists a walk of solid iron.
The hardness of the walk was tested re-
Gently, when the telephone men attempt
ed TO set a pole on that corner. By dint
of much hard work, drilling and blast
ing with dynamite, they succeeded in
penetrating the three or four inches of
pins and corrosion and set the pole. The
walk will last forever, after once being
laid, and neither travel nor storms will
affect it.-Ansonia Sentinel.

How to Wash Clothes.

Plunge the clothes in warm water, to
which has been added some washing
powder and small quantity (say a
tablespoonful per gallon) of ammonia
Knead them for few minutes and allow
them to rest for, say, half an hour; then
strain off and add more water, powder
and a smaller quantity of ammonia. AL
low the clothes to soak for several hours,
at the end of which time they can be
removed, rinsed in cold water and hung
up to dry. Every particle of dirt will
have been removed by the decomposing
chemical action of the powder and am
monia upon the alkaline matter con-
tanned in the body stains on the clothes
Linen and white clothes should be boiled
after sleeping, before rinsing in cold
water. By this simple process much
muscular energy will be saved and
clothing be made to last longer.

Bicycle statistics prove u constantly
increasing demand for improved models,
and there is no doubt that the capacity
of the existing varieties have been con-
siderably overrated. Upgrades and
gravel roads are still obstacles which the

come, and every now and then the rival
ry in the attempt of new feats leads to
fatal results. A few weeks ago the cham

in the real wedding, while Miss Ella

A Clocks Long Strike.

There was a remarkable clock in the
Union depot Tuesday evening. It was
quite a large one, and was done up in a
package which young man had placed
upon the fiat back of-a depot settee while
he waited for a train. The remarkable
thing about the clock was that it struck
and struck, evidently for better posi-
ton, and did not stop striking until its
demand was complied with. People
came in, heard the musical chime, looked
around for the clock and saw it not.
Some passed by with evident surprise
at not being able to see the cause of the
sound Others, after looking up and
down and all around, located the sound
in the package lying on the back of the
settee- The owner of the clock said to
a companion that the clock began strik-
ing when he was coming down Asylum
street and had kept it up ever since. It
lay on its side on the settee until finally
some one tipped it up into its proper po-
sition, when it promptly ceased to strike.

Probably the first rule of street prom
enading is, keep your own side of the
road" Never jostle against ladies; al
ways get out of their path when they
are approaching you from an opposite
direction, and if, perchance, you knock
against them, lift your hat and apollo
gize politely, but briefly. This polite
ness should also be exercised between
men, and is indicative of good breeding.
Never stare at a lady in the street or
turn around to look at her-it is unman-
nerly and rude. Loud talking is vulgar;
splitting barbarous; cursing and swear
ing abominable.
