The bad weather has held on SO long that
practice on the ball-field has been impossible.
The boys, however, have not been idle as has
been seen by their almost constant use of the
gymnasium, punching the bag, swinging of
clubs, and dumb-bell practice being their
chief mode Of training.
Work is rapidly progressing on the field.
The outfeld is being graded, the diamond
scalped, and many other needed improvements
being made, so that before the season opens
Georgetown will have as good a field as is to

Deewarians, will accompany the club, and

1t is unfortunate that Dr. Kerr, the clever
wrestler of the G. A. c., is under the weather

BosToN, March, 21.-A certified draft for

night from John Teamer, of st. Louis, as a
forfeit for a match race with Edward Hanan
for 81 900 side to be rowed at the Point of
Pines, near Boston, May 30, or any other
course Hanlan may prefer, to be three miles

ten days, and If not accepted by Hanlan is
open to O'Connor or Gaudaur on the same
conditions.
The Analostan Club has shown consider
able spirit in agreeing to shoulder aportion of
the debt of the National regatta, because they
will hardly place crew in any Of the events,
and do SO only out of love for the sport. They

their efforts should stir the Others up accord
ingly.
The G. A. c. are working hard to get their
ball team into shape, and it is quite pos
sible that games will be arranged during April
with the leading college teams of the coun-
try. Yale College is desrous of coming, and
would like to make dates for the first week in
April; so would Lehigh, Lafayette, Williams,
Swarthmore, University of Virginia, and
Princeton.
1t begins to look as If the C. A. C. would
have the finest eight-oarcd crew in America
this season. The nucleus of the crew is
already at work getting themselves into shape.
AS soon as the weather breaks aud shells can
be launched the men will commence training.
They deserve success, for they stuck together
year after year, adding new material when
necessary, and row hard and earnest, their
hearts in the task to advance the club to the
lead.

tremely doubtful if they could maintain such
exorbitant salary lists and have the same re-
verses this year. Early in the season Pres-
dent Young laid down the maxim that the
League could not sustain itself if such another
crusade was carried on. The cool-headed
men of the League, such as Spalding, sowden,
and Reach, would gladly meet in conference
Messrs. Prince, Wagner, and Bennett to ar
range truce, sending the soreheads and
wreckers to the rear. The American Associa-
tion was justified in its course, but it should
forgive its enemies and be prepared even to
make concessions. The National Club, of this
city, is In better shape to reap the benefits of
q fight than any of the other clubs, but the
National Club was not in favor of breaking
away from the national agreement and only
acceded when the other clubs had agreed to
cut away. There is much to be gained in
union.
The lovers Of clever sparring have been
anxious to get up contest between Adams,

Bateman, of West Washington. Adams was
willing to meet Bateman at 11S pounds, the
weight the latter offered to spar any one in
the District, but, in communication to The
HERALD, Bateman now names 112 pounds as
his weight. Adams cannot get down to that
and there the matter rests
CLEVELAND, OHIO, March 21.-There will

OF a supplementary contract has been agreed
upon. Under ii Johnson agrees to give the
Cincinnati League Club owners $15, 900 bond
to hold them harmless against the Boston and
Philadelphia Clubs of the American Associa-
tion. The League, on its part, also agrees to

against the New York, Brooklyn, and Chicago
interests in the Cincinnati Club, or to deliver
to him transfers of the interests of these clubs.
The payment of $4,000 by the League to

The House Dress.

The tea gown has a rival in the house
dress which has grown out of it, This
rs trained, brighter in color and richer
Sp material than an ordinary gown for
every day wear, but closer fitting than
8he tea gown, and with no suggestion
whatever Of a dressing gown. Many tea
gowns can be worn without stays, and
are loose and neglige; not so the house
dress, which is a day gown, and not a
dinner gown; and, indeed, it is an excuse
FOR wearing handsome silks and velvets
and wooden brocades, which with the pres
srnt severe style OF walking gowns have
gone somewhat out of general use.
Happily the plain skirts and long trains
bave brought the rich brocades to the fore.

ALL AROUND THE HOUSE.
Some of the Pretty Picture Frames of
Home Manufacture Now Popular.

Some of the Pretty Picture Frames of
Home Manufacture Now Popular.
1t is a convenient fashion nowadays to
have as much individuality as possible
about the frames of pictures, and this en-
ables a clever woman to make some very
pretty ones at small expense. brakes
Magazine gives among good hints for the
home manufacture of frames the follow
ing;
Some are painted a soft tender gray and
have a delicate pattern traced on them.
Others are glded or bronzed or given a coat
of white enamel paint. These last are very
popular at present
Frames Of plain pine, with a beveled
edge, can be made very attractive by Civ
ing them a coat of glue, and before they
are dry sprinkling them thoroughly with
rice, oatmeal or hominy. The edges should
be left plain. When dry, give another coat,
and when perfectly dry gild with gold or
silver paint. Dried grass and grains are
pretty when fastened on plain pine frames
Oil the frame well and then varnish, leav-
ing the natural color of the wood to show.
Oats are the most graceful for this pur-
pose.
Etchings and marine views are now
framed in manila rope and unbleached
duck. Cut the desired shape from paste
board and cover with duck, being careful
to paste the edges all down on the back of
the frame. Fasten the end Of your rope
securely with thread to prevent raveling
and sew it on the frame, leaving several
inches at the end. Leave loop at each
corner and begin at the middle Of the
lower part. Finish with fiat knot and
fringe the ends Paste a piece of plain
cardboard on the back the same size.
Large gilt picture frames consigned to
the attic as antique are now in demand.
Paint them with white enamel paint and
place a narrow strip of plush, or velvet of
some delicate color, inside; put in your
etching, photograph or water color and
the effect will be charming. This is an
especially pretty frame for an easel, with
scarf or drape of soft null or boiling cloth
gracefully draped over one corner.
1t will save much to buy the holdings
of the dealer or manufacturer and make
the frames at home. Oak and curly maple
are much liked Other woods can be
stained very nicely; ash frames can be
stained oak, cherry and mahogany.

The Size Of Skirts

The foundation of skirts for ordinary
walking pu1oses is described by an En-
sziish ulodiste as a straight back 27lS inches
side, front Of 26 inches, tapering to 12lE
inches at the waist, and one gore at each
rs5de. Is inches at the hem and 10 inches at
che waist. For evening wear this is in
creased by wider back, and often by an
additional side gore; but it is quite impos-
aible to lay down any hard or fast rule, for
che cut Of evening skirts entirely depends
ON the style in which they are made and on
che material. Many OF them now are made
ON the old plan with cross cut breadths.

butter, and put them in pie dish, leaving
room for liquid to flow between. Beat four

a pint to pint of cream or good milk. Put
halved oysters or sardines between the
pieces of fish. Pour the cream over, cover

The fashion of substituting small tables
for the ordinary large dining table bids fair
to be popular one in England, at any rate
in country houses, where space is less Of a
consideration than it necessarily is in town.
At Sandringham, during a recent ''house
party" the dinner was served in this way,
several round tables being used instead of
the one long one, with a marked increase,
it is said, in the general conversation. BY
all accounts this is not the first time this
arrangement has been adopted in the Prince
of Wales households fact that will give
the custom a prestige on this side the
