Washington Letter

FROM OUR REG uLAE CORRESPONDENT
WASHINGTON, ID { September It'll, 1893.
The silver dcbait in the Senate has
been far from being AS good-naturcd as
that in the House, and the Senatorsap-
pear now to have reached a state OF IT.
ritation that Is quite unusual with hem,
and winch has already caused some
very unrlcarant things to be SAID. SEN
ators Voorhees, and Hale had Il quarrel
that fifty years ago would have led to
pistols and coffee 70: two, and Senators
Dubois and Teller SAID some hard things
about the anti-sllvcr men, while Sen
ator Teller made a most sensational at
tack upon the newspapers OF the conn-
try, charging them with msrepresent-
ing public sentiment on the silver qnes
ton and iutimat,ng that it was done
for price. These are not promising in
dlcations of an early and satisfactory
ending o! the debate. Two days ago
everything looked bright for the acc"p
lance Of Senator FAUlkners compromise
TO coin S5,uOO,nO0 in silver each month
until I4,0nO,00O should be colncd- bat
President Cleveland pat damper on
it by saying that no compromise or con
ccssion Of amy kind would be accepted.
| understand that - Senators nave
pledged themselves moi to allow a vote
to be taken until some sort Of a conces,
s.ol has been obt&inad.
The now Cleveland baby is Just now
exciting more immediate Interest Ia
Washington than any other one thing.
By one Of those understandable whlms,
every body seemed to have arrived that
it must necessarily be a boy conae-
quently when the birth Of Il girl was
announced, Saturday afternoon. there
were many EXPRESSIONS Of diSalpoint-
nent. There have been three other
babies born in the White House, grand
children OF Presidents TYLER and Grant,
but this one is the first eyer born to
the wife Of IA President in the historic
old banding, and she will probably be
known all her life as the White House
Baby, Mrs. Cleveland, who, with the
baby, is doing niCcly, was attended by
DR.. Bryant, who has for some weeks
been guest Of the family, both at Gray
Gables and at the White House, and
who has also been IN charge Of Mr.
Cleveland.
A very interesting question is going
to be raised if the Treasury department
attempts to carry out the circular is
sued by the Commissioner of Interna,
Revenue, instrqcting collectors to asccr-
tain the amount of certificates ofdepos-
1t, ETC., issued in their localities az sub
stitutes for y. S. currency. and repor
the same for assessment for taxation

The Russian method of dueling is
a peculiarly sanguinary affair, The
opponents are set Is PAGES apart, with
liberty to advance five PAGES each at
given signal and to fire at will
Should one fire and miss, the other
may complete his five PAGES before
returning the shot 1t often happens
that one Of the two is MORALLY
wounded before firing and has yet
sufficient strength to creep forward
to his mark, take steady aim and
shoot with fatal effect The great
Russian novelist Pushkin was killed
in this manner after wOunding his
opponent London Tit-bits.

Two months ago Lear. who is an indolent,

consisting of a wife and two children, the
elder of whom was but nineteen months

she bring their starving condition to
the attention of the proper authorities.
month ago the elder child died of star

food 1t had bitten deeply into the flesh on
It's hands and arms. Last week the baby

Lawrence A. Young Gives Some Good
Advice to Pitchers.

Lawrence A. Young Gives Some Good
Advice to Pitchers.
BY far the most important position OF
the nine in baseball club is that OF
the pitcher. He Is the "centre shot
of the competing teams.
good pitcher can cover mp multi
tude of sins in baseball clubs general
play and standing. A club could better
afford to have poor catcher or almost
any other inferiority of play. To take
any rank it must have, above all other
requirements, one first class pitcher.
The pitchers position is, mo, cover,
the most difficult to play of the nine,
and it requires man with a cool and
nervy head on his shoulders as we'll as
good, speedy arm.
Perhaps the first requisite pitcher
should have is cool head, for many
great and successful pitchers have only
moderate curves and speed. yet their
standing is pre-eminent among their
speedy, but easily ratified associates
Another impor tant factor In his make
up is good temper. or all defects the
most disgusting to an audience, and the
worst known demoralizer in the club
itself, is a surly, i'll natured pitcher.
Matters turn up at every stage of the
game that offend and irritate-the um-
pres roasting his clubs errors, hot
day, sore arm, wind and often q wet
ball.
We will therefore start with the gen.
