"A CUT IN PLAYERS SALARIES.


At Rocky Point yesterday the New Ha-
ven men showed themselves to be the big
rest lot Of kickers that a Rhode Island
base ball loving public has had the mis-
fortune to see in many moon. They
kicked from the start of the game, kicked
harder as the game advanced and finally
became so unbearable that for few min
utes it looked as IL the crowd would
handle them roughly. They insulted the
umpire without provocation, kicked
at decisions when there was no
chance for:a question at all, laughed
at the umpire when he imposed fines on
them and finally when they saw that the
game was lost to them, refused to play
any longer. Umpire Cudworth gave them
five minutes in which to change their
minds put at the end OF the limit there
was Just as much quiet in them as when
they first declined to continue and so
Cudworth gave the game to the Provi-
dence Grays, o %. IL was the most dis :
graceful ball playing that has been. seen
In this State in decade, and the crowd
was surprised that Dan Shannon should
allow any such exhibition of FRESHNESS"
on the part of his players, much less
countenance it himself.
The game itself was good exhibition
Of ball playing, replete with brilliant
playing, good stiff batting and clever base
running. The score was as follows:

presses the hope that Mr.. Cleveland will

that Mr.. Cleveland will, il nominated at

shc Tells OF Her Experiences Among Lep-
ers-Her Plan to Aid Them.
BERLIN, June 13-Kate Marsden, who
is interested In a project to establish q
leper colony in Siberia, has arrived here
from st. Petersburg, en- route to the
United States. In an interview she gave
a graphic description OF her six years
tour OF the leper colonies OF Siberia. She
says that as soon as any person shows
signs of the disease the victim Is at once
driven into the depths of the forest, there
to live upon tree bark and upon rotten
fish.
This food IL furnished by relatives, who
deposit it at distance from the misera-
BILE and filthy huts OF the victims. The
huts are one half under ground for the
sake of warmth, and are hundreds OF
versts apart, so that supervision Is inn
possible. Miss Marsden and thirty guides
were obliged to cut path for themselves
through the underground OF the forests
and to proceed in single tile.
They found the lepers l-clad and liv-
ng In indescribable filth and vice, drag
ring out q horrible existence for years,
nntil they die of disease or starvation
after becoming so loathsome that they
save lost all semblance to humanity.
Miss Marsden says that there has been
found in Yakutsk plant that is reputed
to cure leprosy, but she has not been able
to test IL as yet She Intends To return
to Yakutsk to establish colony at Vel
uisk.

The Bible.

In the Bible there are the finest,
sweetest, highest, noblest things In
which we can find companionship. The
grandest use of the Bible is to make
1t the daily spiritual companion, not
by reading it as though 1t all were OF
equal value. There are parts OF the
Old Testament that are not fit to read
in public or in private. There are
parts Of the New Testament that are
utterly unsuitable as material for
spiritual growth. But there Is no
book, no one gathering Of books, that
contains in 1t. In spite OF all this that
we would leave out, so much OF fine,
high, sweet spiritual nutriment as
does the Bible.-Rev. M. J. Savage, in
Boston Transcript.

PREHISTORIC MEN.


Colorado Utes.
The Utes of the Colorado River have
preserved among them q remarkable
tradition concerning that region and the
people who formerly inhabited IL. They
say that in years long passed they lived
near vast warm lake to the northeast of
the Big (Colorado) River; that the coun-
try was warm and filed with big trees
and big deer, and big oxen with white
horns as long as a lodgepole. The big
warm lake was filed with fish that had
three eyes and four legs each, besides
snakes twenty enas (about fourteen
inches) long. One day all the big oxen
began to below, and they raised such .
steam from their nostrils that the sun was
obscured.
Then the lake began to fall, and by the
end Of one moon was all gone, having
been drained away to the south through
the present canyons of the Green and
the Colorado rivers. When the water
was gone the big oxen with white horns
and the big deer all strayed awsy to the
north and east, and perished from cold
or the arrows OF the Ute hunters. Soon
after the bursting of the lake and the
great food came small people with skin
canoes and seed corn. They were almost
white, and very peaceable. They taught
the Utes how to make earthenware and
to weave mats and blankets. They built
their houses in the cliffs. They had iron
tools, and cultivated pumpkins, corn and
beans.
After this big red Indians came down
from the northwest and killed and drove
of the little people, the remnants OF
whom went to the South and built many
bridges and villages of stone houses.
Soon the big red Indians (believed to be
the Apaches and Kiowas) also went South,
because the land near Big River (Colo-
rado) was becoming dry and cold. This
left only the Utes on the Big River and
its branches. Then there was time when
the mountains took fire volcanic erup-
tions) and poured out red-hot wax all
over the valleys.
After these terrors had subsidized a few
of the little people came back and lived
in peace near but never with the Utes.
They taught the Utes many arts, and told
of the country where they had been driven
by the big red Indian, and among other
things of water Qake) where abounded
q fish with head like man. The flesh
of this creature was as poisonous as the
venom OF q rattlesnake, but the oil would
cure "the wheel in the head" (probably
insanity).-St. Louis Republic.

Congratulstory Telegrams Received by
the President

LONDON, June 12.-when Minister
Lincoln was shown kilograms snnounc-
ing tho denomination of President Har-
rison, he expressed great satisfaction
that the chief work of the convention
had been 90 quickly and SO well done.
He said 1t seemed to him the logical and
necessary result of circumstances, for II
stood tho situation, the wisdom and pro-
priety of the Presidents denomination
had week ago come to be clearly seen
BY the vast majority OF the Republican
party.
For himSelf he could not SEQ that In the
event which occurred last week there
was ground for a change OF feeling. He
did not understa the causes which led
up to IL, but IL he did his personal and
official relations with two eminent leaders
whom IL affected made him wish to say
nothing more then to express regret at
the event and confidence that neither OF
them would permit to come from IT any
variance harmful to the great public
interests to which they were both de-
voted.
Mr.. Lincoln said that the brilliant
record OF the nomination OF President
Harrison had enabled the Republican
party under his renewed leadership to
enter upon the campaign with enthusi-
asm and to appeal with confidence to the
support of the American people for the
continuance OF the conduct of public at
fairs which had brought the United
States into q condition of prosperity un-
equalled in all the world and especially
against any change in the policy OF pro-
lection Of American industries-change
which would be hailed with delight
abroad and which could only result In
the destruction of those industries or a
reduction of wages to compete with those
paid in foreiQu countries.
