THE LAZY FIRST BASEMAN.
He Was Favored by Rain Until the Manager
Drowned Him Out.


The retired left fielder was telling the
story. Hank McGinnis," he said.
''was the greatest first baseman l ever
seen. He could play the bag outer sight
when he was a mind to, but he was the
LATEST man in % counties, and he
didn't play no ball when he could git
outen it. He was allays turnin up with
a spiked foot or split thumb or some
thin of the kind, an ginerally made out
to Law off more'n half the time. The
summer we were playin in the Western
league we struck a manager who was
onto Hanks curves. lie took him TO
one side when the season begun an toi
him that he wouldn't stand no gratis
He marked out to him that if he didn t
play every day he would git laid off an
lose his pay. Sore heels an thumbs was
barred
Hank, bein lazier than ever that
year, was considerbul stirred up about
this. He didn't have no likin to play,
but he was hot after the long green, an
he KEEP playin along an kickin like
bay steer all the time. Finally he got a
couple of days lay off an went to see
l
time an complained of being sick, but
the manager tol him t git inter tn
game or lose 30 cold plunks, an he got
| in. Mex day we couldn't play. There
was big rain. Jus before the time
e call the game on the day aft that
/ they was another big rain.
"An it went ON like this fer straight
80 days. 1t would allays rain jus be-
fore the game, whether we was home or
away. Hank he got fat loafin around
/ an was on first rate terms with hisself.
Finally the manager had to let out some
/ of the men TO reduce expense, an Hank
got the run Then the rains stopped.
Now, what do you think that man done
SOS he could git his money without
workin? Seems he knew somethin about
rainmakin, an when he took that trip
home he got his chemicals together an
didn't do a thing but make rain every
afternoon jus before the game. "-Buf-

Rev. Byron Beal, who is we'll

preached upo4 the Chautauqua
grounds, preached sermon last Sun
day night at his s|church in Lincoln, to
'smen only" and it is needless to add
that the CONGREGATION was very large
one. Rev. BSal gave the men a stirring
sermon against social sin, and upheld.
the mayor OF Lincoln in his determina-
tion to wipe out the houses of prostitu-

help them tb reform. His sermon is
spoken of very highly indeed by the
newspapers-the Omaha Bee alone
giving a column synopsis.

TRUE PROTECTION.

Not many men are better posted
on financial questions than Jay Cooke,
Of Philadelphia. Here is what he says:
sThe demonstration Of silver was q
national crime, because at one blow it
cut of one-half of the basis of values,
and that, after all, lies at the root Of
the money question. I. am q bimetal-
list from head to foot, and / believe
much of our. troubles may be traced to
the blow at our silver. The fight
against silver has been carried on for
more than fifteen years, and it has been
aided by official antagonism on the
part of secretaries of the treasury as
much as anything else. One of the
things we need is the remonetizing of
silver. know the objection will be
raised that the United States cannot
act independently in a matter of this
kind, but beg leave to dissent. A
small issue of bonds would more than
cover all the silver that would come to
us from abroad. Besides this the silver
only from our own mines should be
coined at the mints, and then tariff
could be put ON all foreign silver. It
would not be long before most of the
countries of Europe would be with us.
This consider real protection to
American industry. One thing the
gold advocates forget, and that is the
army of men that would be set to work
digging for silver would at the same
time discover considerable gold"
AS the STAR has often said, protec-
tion and free coinage of American sill
yer should go hand in hand as para
mount republican principles.

Washington's birthday at Chicago
was gloriously celebrated. Gov. Nc
Kinley delivered the principal address
of the occasion, and the great audito-
rum was filed to its utmost with inter-
ested listeners. 1t was one of the most
instructive and eloquent public address,
es we have read: and is pronounced
one of the most pleasing reviews of the
life of the father of our country that
has ever been given to the public. It
is we'll worth preserving. In the eve-
ming great and elegant banquet was
given, in which prominent men from
different portions of the United States
responded to toasts. But this celebra-
ton will doubtless go long ways to-
ward accomplishing what it was proba-
bly, intended to do, viz: boom Mckinley
for the presidency. His public adj
dresses, and his public acts every way,
always make him more popular.

Emperor William of Germany is now
lending his attention in the interest of
bimetallism, and Senator Allison, who
was a member of the international
monetary conference in 1892, says con-

a commission is investigating the SUBJ

the restoration of silver. The Bimetal-

chiefs of the party are each expected to
be present and make speeches-Free-

The call invites ':members of the Farm
ers'Alliance, knights of Labor, Silver

of all reform papers in the state, as

Pierre, the peerless state capital, is
now experiencing thorough prohibi-
tion. The city has been endeavoring
to regulate the saloon by the fine sys-
tenn, but one or two of the saloons
seemed to do most of the business, and
the other saloon keepers, envious of
the success of the their competitors,
procured ''evidence" against them for
selling liquor contrary to the state law
and had them closed. OF course re-
venge is sweet, and the agrieved saloon
keepers proceeded at once to have all
the other saloons closed, and now
Pierre is dry. The city will not let
them run without filming them, as they
should, and they are likely to have a
long continued dry spell because all of
the saloons can not afford to pay the
fine, and each feels that he should be
privileged to run. On with the war
and joy will be ilnconfined.

KIND WORDS CAN NEVER DIE.

From John r. Brennan, who returned
yesterday morning from Hot Springs,
it is learned that the ball given at that
place on Thursday evening by the Ia
dies of the Masonic order was a decided
success, both financially and in point
of the number in attendance. Mr..
Brennan stated that he ball was one
of the grandest ever given in the Black
Hills country, and that large number
were in attendance from various Ne
braska towns, and the only thing to be
regretted was that the Black Hills
towns were not better represented.
The ball was kept up until it was time
to depart by the early train. Hot
Springs sustained it's we'll earned repu-
tation as entertainers of the first water
