But TheyWere World Famous
Cricketers.
The Strange Life of the Noted
Studd Brothers.
One of Them Prays on the Streets
in Los Angeles.
From Cricket to Piety-One of the Most
Noted Cricket Players in the
World Now Member of
the Holiness Band.

Several years since the Studd, broth
ers of England were known in every
land and cline where the British ma
tional game Of cricket was played. The
cricket world was all agog when the,
first Australian eleven electrified Eng
lishmen by defeating the Marylebone.
cricket club, the crack eleven Of. all
England. The cricketers from the anti
podes met with some reverses in their
tour through England, but they clearly
demonstrated that they knew as much,
about the game as their English cousins.
Other Australian elevens visited Eng
land, and many memorable matches
were played.
In one celebrated match it looked as if
the All-England would have to succumb
to the players from Australia. but the
Studd brothers saved England crush
ing defeat and won brilliant victory.
Their wonderful batting at critical
point Of the game secured the victory.
Spoforth, the senior bowler, was hit
hard and often, as were the other crack
bowlers from the Antipodes. All Eng
land applauded and the Studd brothers
were the heroes of the hour. This was
not the only great match won by the
consummate skill and dashing playing
of the brothers. Many century have
they piled up and no English team was
complete without the Studds.
They were Cambridge graduates and
were instrumental in winning nearly
every varsity match. They were at
the zenith of their fame when Charles
Stldd announced his intention of going,
as missionary to China. This created
genuine sensation and was nine
days wonder.
Charles Studd was then in the zenith.
of his athletic fame, being one of the
lions of England. Before going as a
missionary, he was reported to have
given up his entire fortune for the good
of the cause.
The excitement attending Charles
Studd's sudden change in his life had,
hardly died when J. B. Studd became a
convert to the Holiness band and trav-
eled all around the world, finally land
ing in California whittier he came for
the benefit Of his health. Last night
and for many nights past, he has played
the organ for the Holiness band, at 719
North Main street. His health has inn
proved very much during his residence
in Los Angeles, but no one would recog--
nize in his attenuated figure the crack
young cricketer Of England. A. few
yeare ago Studd was robust and stall
wart athlete, and mingled with the aris-
tocracy of England Now he devotes all
his time to saving sinners, notwith-
standing that he is very wealthy. Every
night he sings on the street with the
Holiness band, and associates with no
one but members OF the band. He is
just as content and probably more SO
than when the London Times contained
column after column about his being
one OF the greatest cricketers ever seen
in England. sY.

The late Republican convention of
Pennsylvania passed two resolutions
one denouncing Bardsley and likening
him to Tweed, and the other lauding
Matthew s. Quay for his "matchless
services" and the respect and confidence
he has inspired in his party. Yet both
these men had betrayed their trusts as
public fiduciary agents-the former as
city treasurer of Philadelphia, the latter
as treasurer of the state of Pennsylva-
MIA. The difference in their respective
cases is simply that Bardsley's embez-
elements were exposed before he had
had time to cover them up; Quay's
were only discovered after he had made
himself so indispensable to Republican
syndicates that for the safety Of their
party they made good his defalcations.
Morally, however, Bardsley is entitled
to the same treatment from his party as
Quay.

until silver was remonetized. One of
the most noted Of the governors of the
Bank of England publicly expressed
himself to the same effect. Any one
who desires to delve in mines of
useful information on this head need
only recur to the report to the senate of
the United States of special committee
on the demonetization OF silver, which
is part of the congressional records of
1873.
This is the acceptable year, and the
hirelings of the gold bugs may we'll
swell their shrill chorus to despicable
and unpatriotic crescendo. It will
be unavailing. Every dollar of
that $3.SOO, ,0OO, 900 of silver is doing it's
daily and beneficial Office of minister
ing to the wants of mankind. 1t is
clutched afectionately in the grasp of
the ryot of India, it is alike held fondly
in the palm of the mandarin and the
helot of China. 1t is doing it's humble
but noble function Of adjusting values
and facilitating transactions in all CEN
ters of the world, except in London and
New York. The French have never
abandoned the double standard. All
the Latin races favor it. China and
India are indissolubly allied to it. All
the United States has to do is to re.
monetize the white metal, by free
coinage act, and the pirates who shall
attempt to sell it short will be ground
as between the upper and the neither
millstone. Their very efforts to get hold
of it to abuse it will send them higher
than Gilderoy's kite.

Back Cnmes the Gold.

Shipments of gold to the United
States from England have been fire.
quent in the past ten days. On Sept.
cath 100000 was shipped half mil
lion dollars. The Press predicted when
gold was flowing out of this country
last spring that as we began to send
breadstuffs abroad this fall the tide of
yellow currency would turn.
We are shipping about million dol
lars worth of products to Europe daily
at this time. Corn, cotton, wheat, beef,
pork and oil are the principal commod-
tiles, and they have turned the golden
stream our way again.
The aggregate amount of gold sent
abroad in the last year has been esti-
mated at 10000, 900. At our present
rate of shipments three months will see
all this returned, with S10,OOO,OOO to
$15, 900. 900 more added to it.
An English financial authority, Mr..
Edward Giffin, declares that the Bank
of England will raise their rates of dis
count and thus check the drain of gold
to this country, before they will allow
even 100000 to be sent over here.
Mr.. Giffen cannot have taken into ac-
count the fact that Europe must have
our breadstuffs at almost any price and
must pay for the same regardless of the
rate of discount, the increase of which
would be merely an additional expense
to their own citizens.
The United States, in other words,
holds the key of the worlds financial
situation through its vast crops and in
valuable supplies of cotton, meat and
oil.-NeU York Press.
