Duffy and Hamilton of Philadelphia have been exceptions tO the rule. Both are small in staturr though stockily built, and they rate among the leaders of the League batsmCn. Duffy k also an excellent fielder and brilliant base runner.
 Mccarthy. like Duffy, k q little man, but a Cood ''Sticker." He k also known as a tricky player" In this last respect he and Duffy work like team. They are together in the batting orlcr and aid one another morr in making runs than any other two ball players in active service. Duffy and Mccarthy have done more than any other couple on the Boston team to keep the championship in that city, and for this req son they are always spoken of in one con. ucCtiuu aS il they were Siamcsc twins.

The rump. of the Errn,inn.

A representative piece of mechanism occurs frequently on the sculptures of early Egypt. It has the appearance of and is generally believed to be that of u portable pump. The hydraulic screw is also attributed to this people. but their main reliance seems always to have been the Shadoof, seen everywhere along the banks of the Nile, an invention so sim pie and so well adapted to their needs that it remains today substantially the same as it has through all the centuries since history began.
 The same may be said regarding the chain pump in China, an invention the origin of which antedates the Christian era. This simple machine, which seems never to have Seen improved upon, is in such common use that every agricultural laborer is in possession of one. Where irrigation is conducted on larger scale the chain pump Is made proportionately larger and moved by very simple tread wheel, and still larger ones are operated by yoking buffalo or other animal to a suitable driving machine
 The application of steam to raising water is of uncertain origin. Long be- fore the Christian era certain applica- tions of fire to vessels containing water, by which effects were produced calcu- lated to astonish ignorant worshipers, were practiced by the priests of Egypt, Greece and Rome, but their knowledge seems never to have been turned into any channel of secular usefulness. .-En- gineering Magazine.

Hia Old Pipe.

"Isn't that rich color" said 8 well known lawyer the other day as he held up a brier wood pipe of an almost ebon hue. Then he stroked it fondly with his hand and finally took to rubbing it with his coat sleeve. Ut has taken me over Q year to color that pipe, and don't think you could buy it now at any price. 1 used to smoke cigars-I do now to some extent-but prefer a pipe when read ing or working over my papers. You see a cigar is always dropping ashes and mussing things up. Then the smoke gets in your eyes when leaning over. But a pipe-oh, there is nothing like it for real solid comfort. My wife says this old fellow is z q ing dreadfully strong, but she hasn't the heart to ask me to dis card it for q new ono. See the way that rich chocolate tint merges in the black that velYety looking biack-aud then the gloss that seems to have grown up from beneath the surface.
 Strange how a man should become attached to such thing. But, on the other hand, think of the nights this old pipe has stood by me when l worried my brain over legal tangles; when grew cross and irritable, how its sweet perfume has quieted and soothed me Friends might forsake me and fat fees vanish into thin air, but my old pipe was ever at hand with its comfort. What a sense of calm contentment settles over me when the work of the day is done and sit down in the library at home. with my wife and little ones about and this old fellow filled to the brim and go- ingi Why, man, the cares and worries of the day slip of and away with the curling smoke. Just look at that ex- ouisite colorV'-Brooklyn Eagle.

Cincinnati while in uniform is deeply Ee- gretted by all who like earnest ball play irg. Tucker will surely be punished by the League at its annual meeting next month.
 Bobby Lowe was brought from Canada by the Bostons when the Brotherhood re- bellion made such havoc among that clubs men. He turned out n winning card from the very start and won a host of friends by reason ot his modest demeanor and steady habits and good ball playing. Last year he played in the outfield, but when Quinn was released Lowe was placed at second base. Though the position was new to him and is one of the hardest to play on the diamond, he has filled it most creditably.
 Herman Long is n Chicagoan and began his career in the west. He, too, is one of the stars who sprang mp during the Brother hood revolt. He is a peculiar fielder. One day he will make the most marvellous stops, and the next his work may be miser- able. But Long k what is known as a winner, and his occasional dumps are moro than offset by good play at other times
 In Nash the Bostons have the peerless third baseman of the country. No one dis putes the title with him. He may have had his equal when Denny and Sutton were at their best, but in these modern days he stands alone in excellence Billy is n NirGinian and possesses those gentle manly, Chivalruus characteristics which have so long distinguished the men of the Old Dominion.
 Hugh Duffy ranks us one of the very best out and out hatsmen in the country. Nearly all the leading heavy hitters of the past have been large men, like Anson, Kelly, DalrymplC. Bruuthcrs, Jones, White Ewing and O'Ruurke-men who have in their turn stood at the head of lists. But

 MT. Preston is a native of Tennessee and about 5S years of age. He has been connected with the treasury department since 1856, when he was appointed a clerk in the first auditors division. H.. was transferred to the mint bureau when it was organized in 1873, along with the late director. Mir. Leech. and mint affairs made them especially valu- able to that branch Of the service.
 He has held the position of examiner for many years and outranked Mir Leech in the bureau when that gentle man was selected for director by Presi- dent Harrison.

Me Owe the Hnt tn Asin.

We owe the hat to Asia, for it was in that country that the art of felting wool was first known, and from the most re- mote periods the art was carried on by the orientals. In India, China, Burmah and Siam hats are made of straw, of rat tan, of bamboo, of pith, of the leaf of the Tallport palm and of a large variety of grasses. The Japanese made their hats of paper The modern hat can be traced back to the pctasurs worn by the ancient Romans when on a journey, and hats with brims were also used by the earlier Greeks.
 It was not until after the Roman con quest that the use of hats began in Eng land. A ''hatte of biever," about the middle of the twelfth century, was worn by one of the noblcs of the land Frais- sort describes hats and plumes which were worn at Edwards court in 134O, when the Garter order was instituted The merchant in Chaucer's "Canterburv Tales" had "on his head Flaunderish beaver hat" and from that period on ward there is frequent mention of felt hattes.

CNClist Catches a Train.

We have all seen men run for train said traveller. The other day saw a man make break for one on bicycle. We had halted at station from which a straight, level road ran back at a right angle to the railroad. At a considerable distance up that road we saw man com ing on a bicycle. A man afoot couldn't have got anywhere near us from that distance, and it didn't seem us though the man on the wheel could get within rods of us, but he came down the street whizzing When ho had come about half the distance, the conductor gave the signal to start, and the engineer sounded the whistle and started the train. It was astonishing how fast the man on the wheel was coming now. There was a broad. level space around the station. The bicyclist swept over this in a great curve that landed him alongside the bag gage car. Dismounting, he lifted his wheel up to the waiting hands of the bag gage master. A fraction of a second lat er the steps of the first passenger car came along. and the bicyclist stepped aboard a winner. New York Sun.

 The flakes of snow were flying. The vines along the garden wall
 With crystal ice were gleaming. And in the garden dull and bare
 The summer flowers were dreaming. The snow lay deep over withered grass, The skies were cold and GJ1y, And slowly the dreary nigl.S came on To end the weary day. l woke. High up in the orchard boughs A hundred birds were singing, And in tho birch trees pleasant shade Tho orioles nests were swinging. Along the river, tall and green.

 Birthday of the Town.
 Few people outside of Georgia are aware that when the f1ourishing city of Atlanta was first incorporated 50 years ago it bore the name of Marthasvillc, but that fact has been recalled recently in the preliminary discussion over the celebration in December next of the com pletion of the first half century of the city's existence. It was christened Mar thasville in honor of Miss Martha Lump kin, the youngest daughter of Governor Wilson Lumpkin, one of the most dis tinguished Georgians of his day. He was twice n member of congress, twice governor of Georgia and served one term as United States senator from that state.
 In 1S42 Governor Lumpkin, who had just retired from the senate, was em- ployed in experimenting the affairs of the Western and Atlantic railroad, which was then projected institution depend ing upon state aid for its completion, and it fell to his lot, in connection with
