PLAYERS HABITS.
Some Needed Reforms In Practice, Con.
dItjon and Diet

| Some Needed Reforms In Practice, Con-
dItion and Diet.
A great many people have mistaken
| ideas about the care that the average
ball player takes of himself during the
| busy season of his existence 1t is true
that some do not take any care of them
selves, but this number is gradually
| decreasing from year to year, and the
more intelligent men who are supplant-
ing the players of ten and fifteen years
ago realize that the nearer their physic-
al condition approaches perfection the
better they can work and the higher
salaries they viii be able to command.
There are some dissipated players re-
naming In the profession who are men
OF unusual ability, but can never re-
ceive what they should be entitled to
because of the fact Of their habits.
The lines have been drawn decidedly
tight over these players this season,
and 1t is probable that in all the history
Of the league so many men have never
before been SO vigorously disciplined.
This has had salutary effect, and it is
noticeable that as a general rule there
has been less tendency to carousing
among those who are thus disposed.
The worst falling that ball players
have is when they are away from home.
That failing is not an over indulgence
in intoxicants, as some might imagine,
but temptation to eat too much. The
players remain about the hotel where
they are stopping great share of the
time and take but little exercise
Meanwhile they eat as much and as
heartily as when they are at home and
work from three to four hours every
day before the game. They become
lazy, dull, in consequence, and do not
put the life into a game that they would
if they got out and hustled ov er two
or three-mile walk every morning.
Captain Arson, of the Chicagos,
realized this fact some time ago, and
his players get exercise of sol me kind
almost every morning when they are
away from home, as well as when they
are on the Chicago grounds.
There has been, however, such re-
form in this particular, and nowadays,
just before entering into game, near
~ all players are temperate in what
they eat.-Sporting Life. t-r

THE PUi,sCIT-SELF EXILED.

A cry of horror escaped Dan Riggsby's
lips as he SAW the blood running from
the won d in Bud Ropes head. and for
moment he stood there helpless and
stupefed at the sight before him.
He is killedr he gasped in "A choking
voice, "and | shall DO accused of his
murder"
A cold perspiration broke out on his
brow, and u groan escaped him as he
thought of his parents at home. What
would they think Of the deed and what
great calamity would it bring upon them
as well as upon himself?
AT that instant he heard shouts in the
distance, and lifting his eyes he beheld
Ben Ropes riding furiously toward him,
followed by half dozen cowboys. He
saw the gleam of pistols in their hands
aud knew they had witnessed the en-
counter between himself and Bud, and
would visit speedy vengeance upon him.
He well knew the impulsive and des-
perate character of those with whom he
now had to deal, and he realized that he
was in II most dangerous and desperate
situation. That the men who were ap-
preaching would shoot him down with
ont giving him the slightest opportunity
to explain the situation of affairs he
was fully convinced, and he recognized
the fact that his only chance of life lay
i'll instant flight.
As this thought occurred to him he
turned quickly to where he had left his
horse, but the animal had taken fright
and was galloping wildly across the
prairie II hundred yards away, followed
by the horse that had been ridden by
Bud Ropes.
Dan realized the utter impossibility of
overtaking his retreating horse. and
without Il moments hesitation he turned
and ran toward the timber that skirted
the creek II hundred yards away. His
gun had been carried away upon the
horse and he was without the slightest
weapon to defend himself.
Reaching the cover of the brush, Dan
cast quick glance behind him and saw
the horsemen refining in their horses at
the spot where Bud Ropes lay. Some OF
them hastily dismounted, while three
others spurred their horses in pursuit OF
the fleeing youth.
Dan crept through dense thicket Of

your
Il haven't the least idea" declared
Dan in careless tone.
Maybe you can guess now" said
young Ropes, removing heavy cattle
whip from the horn Of his saddle and
holding it i'll his hand.
I'D rather not guess" replied Dan
coclly "I'll just wait and see"
"Oh, I'm not going to let you get
away" remarked Bud: land as you seem
TO be ignorant of my intentions I'll just
tell you that I'm going to give you good
horsewhipping with this whip"
AS he spoke he suddenly leaned for
ward and aimed blow with the whip at
Dams face But Dan had anticipated
his action and threw himself forward
upon the neck of his horse just in time
20 escape the lash as ii cut the air above
him. Quick as flash he threw himself
from the saddle and advanced toward
his antagonist.
As he did so young Ropes struck at
him again Dan threw up his hand to
ward OF the blow just as the lash struck
and wound about his arm. Quick as Il
thought Dan grasped the whip, ana be-
fore his antagonist could regain his bal
ancc he was ieried from the saddle.
As he fell Dan struck him blow in
the face, for he was now thoroughly en-
ragged ut the attack that had been made
upOn him. Then throwing himself for
ward he :;rasped the fallen youth and
iamma! his head violently against the
ground.
Bat at that instant Bnd drew a pistol
from his belt and pressed it against his
antagonists breast. but with quick
movement Dan struck the pistol aside
AS he did so there was Il loud report,
and Bud Ropes threw out his hands;
then lay limp and lifeless, u red stream
running across his pallid face.

Having dried and replaced his gar
ments. he crept beneath Il small bunch
of sumachs close at hand. where he
found protection from the now hot rays
of the sun.
He had had nothing to eat since the
evening before. and now began to feel
exceedingly hungry. But having moth
ing with which he could satisfy his
craving for food he was compelled to
content himself till night. when on his
journey to the north he would doubt
lessly come across some cabin where
food could be obtained.
1t seemed like an age to wait to Dan,
and it appeared to him that he had
never known dag that passed SO slow
ly At last. however. the sun went
down and night settled rapidly over the
broad waste of prairie
There was no moon, and as the shad-
ows deepened Dan rose from his place of
concealment and began his journey to
the north.

The Minneapolis Convention.

Republican delegates to the Min
neapolis convention were chosen last
week in Maine, New Hampshire, New
Jersey, Missouri, Nebraska, Colora-
do, Ohio and New York. In Ohio
VIM. Mckinley and Gen. Foraker are
on the delegation, while in New York
the delegation is headed by the " Big
Four" Depew, Miller, Platt and His
cock, the same as headed the delega-
tion in '8S. Some of the states, Ne
braska, for instance, instructed for
Harrison, but in the most cases the
delegates will go to Minneapolis un-
pledged and un-instructed. This is
Just as it should be. The National
convention will be made up of sound,
level-headed representative men OF
the party, and they may be depend
ed upon to do what is best in the
selection of q candidate. We have
but little doubt that they will select
President Harrison for the standard
bearer. But whether it is Harrison
or some other good man we know
they will make wise choice, and it
is safe to say that the man named
by the Republican convention will be
the next President. 1t is issues more
than men, and the party of protec-
ton and reciprocity, of sound money
and an honest ballot, is sure to win.
Judge Powers, who will head the
Vermont delegation, said in a recent
interview at Washington that,
"The Vermont delegation is I'M
instructed, but l believe the delega-
ton is, and am sure that l am for
the man who is sure to win. My
first choice is the man who is sure to
win, and my second choice is the man
who is most likely to win. / regard
the situation as simply this: As
New York goes at this convention SO
go we all; or, in other words, think
the New York delegation will deter
mine the nominations. | would say
also that New York is the key to the
election, and the nominee of which
ever party carries New York is the
winner. If New York at the conven-
ton says Harrison, | think he will
be the nominee. If New York says
otherwise, l think he will not be
nominated, and the Importance of
this can be fully realized if we recog-
nize the fact that New York deter
mines the election in November"

That the farmers of Vermont are
becoming interested in the Guberna-
torial campaign is evident by the
interest taken by those in Lamoille
county at the farmers meeting at
Morrisville Tuesday. 1t was very
evident from the remarks there made
that they intend to use their best
efforts to secure the nomination of a
farmer. There appeared to be no
special preference, but it was decided
to support that farmer that had the
strongest following in the eonven-
tion, be it Spear, Chaplin or Fletcher.
The caucuses are to be well attended
and efforts made to secure delegates
favorable to some one of these gen.
tlemen.
