to make extended discussions valuable.
Second base is undoubtedly the key Of
the infeld. 1t is the prettiest place to
play. The second baseman has one ad-
vantage over the others-the runner is
always in front of him. He can sweep
his eye over the field while he is max
ing play easier than the third base
man can. He has more ground to cover
and more time to cover it in, for he is
nearer the first bag. In general way
the necessary qualifications are much
the same for him as for the short stop
and third baseman; but it does not fol-
low that good man in one of these
places would succeed in another. The
requirements are too fine to be profit
ably discussed, but they are undeniable.
The second baseman need not have so
strong an arm, but he is then more in
need of the sharp, quick tricks of hand
ling and throwing a ball.
In the present method of play the
shortstop covers second bag nearly as
often as the baseman himself does. He
must be equally sure of thrown balls
and equally expert in touching run
ner. 1t is in those fine plays near to
first bag that the especial excellence of
the second baseman may be apparent.
The first baseman must have quick
eye for thrown ball, and must be reso-
lutte and courageous. The duties of his
position are perhaps more easily under
stood than the others, and SO shall not
discuss them. / like to see first base
man practice hard, and not be too anx-
ious to save himself in the case of badly
thrown balls. Tucker is one of the
most faithful of players in this matter,
and much of his success is due to the
courage with which he faces any sort of
work in game or in practice Such
persistent work in practice may teach
man something when he least expects
advantage. | have noticed this year
that Bcouthers is landing low thrown
balls on the left side better than ever
before. He is so well known as a vet
eran that one might think he had moth
ing to learn, and yet | am convinced
that my observation is correct
As to training, / recommend the
nilder methods A man should never
reduce his weight suddenly nor strain
himself. Above all he must avoid ex-
cesses. Aside from all questions of mo-
rality, ball player cannot afford to
drink with the remotest approach to in
toxication nor to smoke TO excess. The
less Of both the better for most men.
never smoke immediately before game
and limit myself to a moderate amount
of tobacco. These points are just as
good for the amateur as for the profess
sional, for we all love the game, and we
want 10 play it as best we can and to
keep it in the best repute

Poetry and Fireplaces.

What poetry and sentiment linger
around the old fashioned fireplace! Here
the families gathered, down to the mid
die of the century in many cases. Be-
fore one of them in Kentucky the boy
Abraham Lincoln learned to read, the
hut in which he lived being too poorly
furnished even to allow him the saucer
Of lard with the burning lampwick float
ing therein. Here the sturdy manhood
and the buxom womanhood lived, loved
and died, learned, dreamed and went
therefrom to make name and fame or to
plod on through life in a humble CO.
pacity.
But those days are gone, and the olo
fashioned fireplace is a thing of the past,
except in remote regions where the spirit
of progress has not yet penetrated. OF
course a great deal of poetry departed
with the substitution of stoves for fire.
places, but this is largely practical and
utilitarian age, wherein stoves and
prosy comfort are considered as vastly
preferable to fireplaces and the impossi-
bility of keeping warm without being
roasted. The majority of people today,
it there were no other objections to fire
places, would doubtless esteem the poet
ical one as being sufficient Philadel-

The Indian Is a naturally secretive be-
ing, hiding his inner character jealously
from the eye of any alien race. He is
called cunning, crafty, morose, revenge
full and cruel. So he has been-toward
those who have made no bids for his
confidence and friendship other than
those offered by constant efforts to crowd
him from his country, despoil and even
exterminate him. He is really by ma
ture-not always, but often-the very
reverse of these things.
Place him now under other conditions.
Put him in one of the new troops; teach
him a pride in being soldier of the gov
ernment, and that the government re-
lies OH him for its safety and protection:
make him feel that the white soldiers
around him are his comrades. and he as
good as they; explain to him the reason
of things; give him healthy and con-
genial employment; treat him as an IN
dependent rational being and man;
cease trying to promote his confidence
in you and his progress by talking to
him about his soul-and you will soon
have result astonishingly different to
the accepted idea of his race. -
He who commands these people best
must be scrupulously just, and keep ev-
cry promise as far as he can. He must
feel genuine interest and friendship
for them, for they are quick to detect
shams He must at first be patient and
lenient, Furnishing usually only after re-
peated cautions and explanations, and
after he is sure the nature of the offense
is understood. He must have tact and
perception of character, for Indian char.
acter is just as varied as the white, and
treatment that would do for one man
would break up the troop if applied te
others.-Lieutenant 8. q. Robertson il

Jenerson,s Louisiana Home.

The winter home of Joseph jefferson
Is on Orange island, New Iberia, La.
The house is one of the old manors, re-
modelled and refurnished- by the actor.
Its conservatories abound in tropical
fruits and flowers. Artificial ponds
teem with trout and black bass Lake
Simonette, near by, affords the finest
6shing, while one has to step but a few
yards from Jefferson's fireside to find
wild fowl in abundance. Luxuriant
groves, containing thousands of trees of
the mandarin and Brazilian varieties,
surround the house. Fully one hundred
pecan and the same number of orange
trees yield succulent corps yearly. In
the pastures are'the finest specimens of
Holsteins, while in the stables are a
number of the feetest roadsters in the
south. The apartment of which Mr.
Jefferson is proudest is the japanese
room. 1t is of marvellous beauty, and
visitors come from miles about to gaze

Making Alloys Is an Art.

Great art is requisite in making alloys
1t is true that they are readily formed
by melting metals together in crucible
or in properly constructed furnaces, but
it is necessary to insure perfect fusion
and to prevent loss. Zinc is volatile,
infiammable metal and easily catches
fire. Indeed, it is not at all uncommon
to find that two alloys of exactly the
same component parts differ very ma
terially in properties, in consequence of
difference in the mode of preparation
or in the care bestowed upon it.-Cham-
bers' Journal.
