We think our club will stand well in
the league race because there are no
experiments in it. All our players have
made regulations in first-class company.
All are good battcrs, runners and field
ers.
Our pitchers finished up the season
last year in very good shape, and We
have good reason to believe the most Of
them viii start in well this season.
Every man on the team is strong and

Life of General Sherman.

No literary announcement of the
year is of greater interest to the gene
raj public than that of a comprehen-
sive Life of Gen. Sherman, which is
about to be published and sold through
agents by the noted house of Hubbard
Bros, of Philadelphia. Admirable
biographies of Grant and Sheridan,
complete to the time of their death,
are already familiar to the public, but
life of the third great commander,
to finish the series, has been lacking.
The various biographies of Sherman
hitherto published have necessarily
been Incomplete; and even his own
memoirs, written in 1875, said almost
nothing of his intensely interesting
early life, and not word, of course,
of the more than 20 years of social
activity, and fraternity with old COM
rddes since the war.
The work which is now to be issued
will splendidly supply the widely felt
demand for a history of the great
strategic commander. 1t is being
written by Gen. o. O. Howard, a man
of fine literary attachments, who knew
Sherman better than any other of his
comrades now living, and ranked next
but one TO him in the army, and by
Willis Fletcher Johnson, whose abil.
ity as historian is familiar to the
reading public of America through
bis former unusually popular works,
which have had millions of readers,
and the sales of their vast editions en-
riched an army of book agents. That
this history of Sherman, the last of
the great Generals, will surpass all
the others in popularity is not to be
doubted.
The story of this great Generals
career is of a marvellous march from
the mountains of time to the sea of
eternity. OF the three great war he
roes, Sherman was by far the most in
teresting personality. He was the
best known to the public and the best
loved for his genial disposition and
warm sympathy with the popular
heart. He has joined his illustrious
compeers in the eternal bivouac of the
dead. His is life to study-to emu
late--and is profound inspiration.
The Forthcoming volume will tell the
whole story of his marvellous career,
and from the authorship engaged up
ON it, we are assured it will be told in
"a way that will enthral the attention
and interest of every reader from first
to last. 1t is book every American
will want and one every American
youth should read. 1t will doubtless
be the best life of the great chieftain
published, and we predict for it
wonderful popularity.

Punctuation.

1t is strange that the use of points
for purposes of punctuation should be
such a comparatively modern inven-
ton. OF the four generally used points
only the period e. dates earlier than
the fifteenth century. The colon (:) is
said to have been first introduced
about 1885, the comma ~ some thirty
five years later, and the semicolon O.
about 1870. 1t is difficult to under
stand how the literary world dispensed
for so many centuries with tie useful
points, and their lack must have added
to the toll of the decipherer of written
documents. When we remember what
curious diversions of meaning may be
caused by the misplacing of comma,
we marvel how early authors con-
trivedito escape strange misreadings
of their works, in which no points
guided the students.-LORdoR Stand
