In THE CRICKET FIELD.
The Pscifcs Showed Under by the Cali
forufae.


1t was half expected that. owing TO the
poor display made by the California Cricket
Club on the previous Sunday in its match
with the Alamedas that the Pacifcs would
stand good chance of defeating it yester-
day; but the Pacifcs were never further
from victory. Robertson had evidently
made up his mind to atone for his bad luck
in the previous match, and he did 1t with
vengeance. He played grand cricket. and
ran up the top Individual score of the
season-145, not out Up to yesterday Web
ster stood highest with 1O4. but now he has
to take second place. II the stumps had not
been drawn there is no saying what Robert
son might have scored, as he seemed to
have the bowling completely at his mercy.
Every bowler In the Pacific eleven was tried
against him, but he pegged away at slow
balls and fast balls. making some fine
drives clear over the fence. He was loudly
cheered on leaving the wickets. Arson and
Gadesden also played fine game and made
good scores.
The match was played on the Alameda
grounds, commencing at noon. Captain
Robertson won the toss and preferred to
take the field.
Tie Paciics made fair stand against the
bowling Of Robertson and Reynolds. TheO-

Webster was caught and bowled by Sheath
after scoring s. / tor s. Robertson joined
Arson. and the scoring commenced in earn
est Fife and Bennett tried their hand at
bowling, and Sheath relieved Fife; but still
the runs kept piIlng up. Arson was. much
to his disgust, run out when the score stood
at Is; for 6S. Reynolds joined Rob
ertson, but was neatly caught by Bowhill
of Lees, who had relieved Bennett after
scoring single; 3 for II. Randall was the
next batter. but succUmbed to Lees after
adding couple of singles to the score for
90. Gadesden Joined Robertson and they
were not separated till they had put to-
gether 12l, Gadesden being bowled by Ben

Ovid tells us that the first temple
.of Ncsta at Rome was built of wat
tiled walls and rooted with thatch. 1t
was little other than circular, COW
cred fireplace. and was tended by the
girls. IL served as the
public hearth Of Rome, and on it
glowed, uneXtinguishable throughout
the year, the sacred fire which was
to have been brought from
;Froy, and the continuance of which
was thought to be linked with the
fortunes of the city.
The name of the Nesta is believed
ITO be derived from the same root as
the Sanscrit was, which means to
dwell, to inhablt, which shows that,
|shc was the goddess of home, and
home had the hearth as its focus. A
town or State is but large family,
and what the domestic hearth was to
the house, that the temple of the
perpetual fire was to the city.
Every town had its Nesta or COM
monwcalth, and the colonies derived
their fire from the mother earth.
Should vestal maiden allow the sa-
|cred fire to go out, she was beaten by
the grand pontiff till blood flowed,
land the new fire was solemnly rekin-
died bv rubbing dry wood together,
or by focusing the suns rays. 1t
might not be borrowed. The circu-
lar form and domed roof of the
temples of Vesta were survivals Of
the prehistoric huts of the aborigines,
which were always round.

Returning Home.

Discussed homeseekers are return
Ing from the Sisseton Reservation by
the dozens. All of them succeeded in
locating claims, but they claim that the
land Is worthless, devoid Of the most
essential qualities, and not worth pay
Ing taxes on. True, there are some
good lands In the Sisseton Reservation,
but they were gObbled before the ordi-
nary homeseeker, who was. willing to
b ustle for himself, had . chance to
make his appearance. SO far as the
other lands are concerned, they may be
official, who said:
81 don't blame TN government for
ktvine t6tS hand aWky. lnseS 4Vt1oass
ing troops here TO keep the people Oh u,
they should have directed the soldiers
to use very honest effort to push them
on IT,"
The exaggerated stories sent out by
correspondents interested In one Of the
smaller land companies have had the
effect OF deceiving great many people
and bringing them to region that is
replete with barrenness. These stories
have had one good result, and that Is to
convince people what good place homo
Is, and how utterly foolish 1t Is to madly
rush to some remote region In order to
secure something for nothing. Fraud
has been practiced on large scale and
Is openly boasted Of by the parties who
practiced it.
Upward OF twenty persons 90 far
have staked as many as three claims
each, putting on the stake some ficti-
tiOus name In order to hold 1t for some
friend, or perhaps to speculate with
It. This Is fact that has not been
brought to the attention OF the proper
authorities, and when it does reach
them 1t is liable to play havoc with
the chances Of the guilty parties
for holding even one quarter section.
That it Is fraud and injustice is too
patent to need explanation, and yet it
Is perhaps just as well, for it prevents
other poor mortals from being deluted
into settling on barren waste that has
Its attractions only on paper. The Gov
ernment Inspector Is not in love with
the land companies.
Expressions of disgust are loud and
deep. They cannot be mistaken. The
returning crowds have filled the trains
to overflowing. As most of these per-
sons have been obliged.to walk oil the
way from ten to twenty five miles in or
der to reach railroad, their feelings,
aided somewhat by the disappoin tment
they have experienced, can better be
imagined than described. The claims
located and afterwards deserted will
reach upwards of fifty already, with
more to hear from. Ii all the flers
knew the land as well as the sQuatters
do now, there would be no excuse for
trouble OF any nature, but they will
not be convinced until they have seen
for themselves, hence the fear of trouble
OF serious nature has good founda-
tion.
by the way, the road used as the
port of entry to the reserve is the old
Siblev trail. 1t was here that Gen.
Sibiey and his command had serious
brush with the Indians nearly thirty
years ago, and threw up rifle pits with
in few hundred yards OF where Col.
Bernard stood when he gave the signal
tor the rush. The rife pits arc still
there. though they arc more than half
filed up.

Paris special: The restaurant of NJ. Very,
who on March 80 delivered Ravachol, the

utterly wrecked by bomb explosion. The
police. on entering. found Very lying on
the floor In the midst OF heais OF debris.
grand-daughter OF Very was also In
jured, and two ladies living over the res
taurant we're badly shaken and bruised.
Very's wife, was not injured but has lost
her senses, owing to tho shock she suffered,
and is raving. Fortunately The damage
done Is almost entirely confined To the
building in which the restaurant was To-
Gated. 1t is the general opinion that the
explosion was perpetrated mainly 70 ter
rorize the jurymcn who will be on duty at
Ravachol's trial. Three persons were ar
rested. The news OF the explosion quickly
spread throughout the city. creating con-
sternation, especially on the boulevards
where exaggerated reports OF the affair
were current.
Very died AT the hospital soon after the
amputation Of his leg
The cafe is AN utter wreck and the pave-
ment in the vicinity was completely strewn
with debris of furniture and the front of the
building. A waiter named Sherot escaped
with slight bruises. but is suffering from the
effects OF the great shock. Several persons
riding in IA tram car passing the building
when the explosion occurred were injured
by being struck by pieces OF flying glass.
