, THEY WORSHIP A LOG.
Tree Trunk on Which the Insects of China
Never Alight.

Chicago Times.l
There is log of yellowish colored wood
standing just outside of Chi Hua gate, Pekin
This log has remained in its present position
since the fall of the old Ying dynasty. 1t is
in good preservation and has commanded
the respect of all classes and conditions of
people. Insects in China usually make in
roads in timber in very short while, but
they are said never to alight upon this sacred
tree trunk and it is true that they have not
left single trace of their work upon it,
while the timbers in every direction are a
perfect honeycomb of insect work.
The Chinese people believe that the log is
the habitation of some god, and on that ac-
count gather and worship at its base at
least once year. Among the higher classes
the day for this unique species of worship is
the first of each succeeding month unless
that day should happen to be new-moon
day. October of every year the Emperor
commands the Board of Ceremonies to ap-
point committee to pay their respects to
the deified log.

rose again to first place, and lost it to Brad

tied at Erie and to-day the Eries lead the

Billion Dollars.
New York ADVERTISER
If q billion dollars were placed on the
ground edge to edge, they would extend Il
distance of 1854 miles, nearly all the way
around the Equator. Broken into three
parts, the line would form both a solar and
an equatorial axis for the globe, with a spare
one left over in case of accident Divided
into seven parts, the line would stretch from
Washington to Algiers, Berlin, Edinburgh,
Lima, Venice, Paris and Liverpool.
billion dollars would give 100000 young
men enough capital to start in profitable
business for themselves.
A billion dollars would buy gowns for all
the women in the civilized world and shoes
for 500 600, 900 homeless children.
1t would pay for trip around the world
for 500 600 persons, and buy enough clothing
to last 10, 900 900 men one year.

men care for it. They would rather wait until the
latter part of September for the next water as
there is plenty of coal below to supply the present
demand, and to flood the market only causes de-
in the price. Very little coal is at present
in the pool. Not more than two or three firms
could get a tow away If n rise should come. The
marks on the wharf show feet inches.

A Managers Difficulties.

almost every day he i blamed for some
thing that he has nothing whatcVer to do
with. For instance. some time ago our
team was playing another League team
at New York. Tie score was to
, in our favor in the ninth inning
and the other fellows had two men
out The third man knocked an easy
grounder to shOrt>top and the ball was
thrown splendiGly to Connor at first. But
JonnOr let the ball drop in the simplest
way. and as a result the score was tied and
i'll the eleventh inning we were beaten.
After the game ! found myself in the com
pauN of some gentlemen who did not know
me and one ot them addressing himself to
me said: That man Mutrie il no more fit to
manage a bali team than Il monkey is to be
President OF the country. He cannot get
the work out OF the men. just look at Con
nor'S error to-day. But l suppose both
Mutrie and the players won about ;, ,001 on
the affair You see, that's how it goes.
Well hadn't anything to do with Con
nOr'S error. 1t was just one of these mis-
takes that viii occur no matter what is done.
In scores OF ways a manager has to shoulder
charges with which he has nothing to do.
But do hold that a manager OF a ball team
should Have Sole Control.
IF lie has not he is not likely to get along
all right with his men. Many of our direct
ors don't know our players when they see
them. Why, | don't think that Mr.. Day, our
President, has been among the players more
than twice this year Not long ago had
occasion to fine q PLAYER and he appealed to
Ir. Day. The latter promptly said that the
only fault he had to ind WAS that Mr.. Mutrie
had not made the fine big enough. The
player was promptly told that the fine must
stand except the manager choose to re-
woke il.
Nov manager must be treated in this
way II he is to succeed. i know it from
pcricuce. When a manager Is chief the
PLAYERS respect him and look to him for
everything. Ball players, a. a rule, are
prttty cute fellows, and they soon see where
and how they can take liberties. But be-
vOnd all it is only fair to a manager to give
him sufficient power to keep his men un-
der control When he il clothed with that
power he can be held responsible: when he
i not then it i difficult to hold anybody re-
spunsiblc for any shortcomings that may eN
list in the team.
Some Very Wise Advice.
Certainly the above remarks of Mr.. Mutrie
are worthy of consideration by the gentle
men Interested in the local team. The
marks contain suggestions that can be util-
lied to a very great advantage, because they
are words of wisdom.
In speaking of general baseball Manager
NIutrie says that the Cincinnati team are
PLAYING a great game and that luck favored
the GIANTS when in that city. Mr.. Mutrie is
confident that his team will win the pennant
because Giasscock will probably be able to
resume play today. Whistler has been do
ing well, but he i not a GlasScock. John
Ewing and Buckley viii be the battery for
the Giants to-day and Baldwin and Berger
will be the home battery.

TREACHERY OF PARNELLITEs.
William O'Brien Throws Some Light
on the Conference with ParnelI.

William O'Brien Throws Some Light
on the Conference With Parne11.
LONDON, Oct 16-William OBrien, member
of parliament, today made public statement
or manifesto in reply to the recent Parnellite
defiances. He writes:
have waited since the funeral hoping that
the late Parnelps leading supporters, knowing
my relations with Parnell at Boulogne, would
have the manlinees to disassociate themselves
from the diabolical charges circulated broad
cast by their special organ, that Dillon and my
self bounded their leader to death.
He continued by saying that as the insinua-
tion as to his treatment of Parnell had not
been rebuked nor repudated by men who know
them to be false, he felt absoived from all obli-
cations of silence with regard to the conference
a. Boulegne. The uualterable basis of all COM
munieations with Parnell at Boulogne was,
first and last, O'Brien said, his retirement from
leadership. O'Brien continues:
Parnell's foremost and influential leutenants
professed themselves eager as ourselves to
secure Parnells withdrawal These same men
are now silent, whilst their organ charges me
with plotting TO get rid OF Parnell They them
selves pressed me to consent to Parnells hrst
proposition, which was that he should retire In
favor of myself, and at the close of the nego-
Iiations they repeated their convictions that 1t
would have solved the difficulty had l con-
sented.
A letter from Parnell to O'Brien is then given,
in which the former expressed his gratitude for
the kindness and gentleness of spirit shown him
by O'Brien. O'Brien concluded:
Thus closed the Boulogne communication,
with full recognition that we parted as honor
able opponents.
Timothy Harrington, replying to O'Brien's
manifesto, denies that the Boulogne negotia-
tions were based on the absolute retirement of
Parnell, and says the sooner O'Brien publishes
the text of the negotiations the more delighted
Parnell's followers will be.
