Yesterday at Kittsondale the Minne-
sofas administered severe drubbing to
the Wanderers, scoring 143 to 4S. On
paper the teams seemed fairly we'll
matched. but the bowling Of Vaughan,
who was very much on the spot, was too
much for the Wanderers, his analysis
reading SIX wickets for sixteen, which
was we'll backed up by Jaffray, who cap
,tured three Wickets for nine. G. A.
9Miller was unfortunately run out for
ming when he looked like scoring, and
,,on Cunningham and Richardson getting
together there were still hopes of
fatty large score. The latter imme-
1dlately started in to hit hard, being
FINALLY caught for stylish fifteen. This
the beginning of the end, the rest
innings closing for the small score
yof As. During the interval the
vmembers were photographed at the
cpaRilion, and, after this trying ordeal
was passed, Capt. Donaldson sent in
FNapier and Davies to the bowling of
Cunningham and Richardson. Both
oboWlers were we'll on the wicket, and
runs came slowly till Vaughan and
rJatfray got together, when the stand of
the day was made. the former PLAYING
with confidence and in good form. Sew
eral changes of bowling were tried
without avail, runs coming freely,
Vaughan, however, doug much of the
scoring till he was caught behind the
wicket by Wilde. After Vaughan's re-
tirement Jaffray came out of his shell
and started to score at rapid pace,
hitting the bowlers all over the ground.

Curious Oak Tree In Georgia.

A resident of Augusta, Ga, has an
oak tree growing upon his place which
is not unlike other trees of that species
in general appearance. Instead Of pro-
ducing the regulation acorn, however,
it is annually loaded with peculiar
formations as unlike the natural pro
duction of such trees as one could i'm
agine. AS q general rule the cup Of an
acorn is as large Or larger than thin
BILE, covering at least half of the acorn
proper, but in this case the tiny recep-
tacle is not larger than pea, and, In
stead of being constructed SO as to hold
but single nut or kernel. contains
from three to five small ones, the num-
Der seeming to vary with the distance
from the ground, the cups on the lower
limbs being uniformly filled with three
of the tiny acorns. Botanists OF ma
tional repute have ponderedthis sylvan
oddly and old settlers, noted hunters
and woodmen in general have visited
the wonder and left without even at
tempting to name the variety of oak to
which it belongs.

AN ANGEL IN A BLIZZARD.

1t Was Not Showing Too Nfuch for the
Scribe to See What Kind Man Did.
Two men who knew him were stand
ing in the Grand Pacific exchange
talking about George w. Champlin,
who died in Hot Springs. He was one
of the most generally known men on
the Chicago board of trade, says the
Chicago Herald.
''He didn't belong to any church, "
said one of the men. zone night met
him on Clark street. A blizzard was
on the rampage and people were rum
ming to get out of the cold. A ragged
boy stood behind storm door, pic
ture of the forlorn. The boy was al
most barefooted. Champlin! stopped
and said to him: My boy, this is hard
luck; why don't you put on your Sun
day suit?' 'Hain't got nome the boy
replied. Champlin took him by the
scruff of the neck and almost dragged
him into clothing store near by and
had the boy put into a new suit, shoes,
hosiery, underwear and cap. Then,
handing the boy dollar, he said to,
him: Young man, you had better run
right home and get out of this cold.
The mercury is twenty degrees below
zero The clerk in the store called me
aside and asked: who is that man?
This is the third or fourth boy he has
brought in here and clothed"
''You say he didn't belong to any
church," asked the man who had
listened.
'.Never went in one that heard Of"
''Well, he won't need any church GER
titicate in the next world. / reckon it
wasn't showing too hard the night you
speak of for the recording angel to

idle day to every laborer and mechanic

penters, painters, furniture movers,

closely. he discovered that little radi-

of sand to each hole, and that the sand
itself was in minute balls.

a statue that could induce them to

Coming cautiously to the mouth of

rapidly projected as through it's mouth.

Mutton in the Southwest.

In the meat shops of towns in New
Mexico and Arizona the visitor from
the east is apt to notice that the
dressed carcasses of sheep have tuft
of wool still attached to the head and
tail. This is left by the butcher to as
sure the customer that it is mutton
and not goat flesh they are buying,
for in these territories many aocks Of
goats are reared and pastured by the
small Mexican ranchmen to be killed
for food for the poorer natives. Roast

is an esteemed dinner dish at the tables
Of many well to-dp American and Span

TAKE TIME FOR HOME LIFE.
The Mistake That the Intensely-Busl
american ALI Too Often Makes.

The Mistake That the Intensely-Busy
american All Too Often Makes.
There are no buster people in the
world than Americans. The rush and
intensity Of our business life excites
the constant wonder of foreigners ac-
customed to more leisurely methods,
says the New York Press. It is a ques-
ton if American men do not work too
hard and too fast not merely for their
own good, but for the highest good Of
their families. In their earnest desire
to win material benefits for their wives
and children they frequently toll with
such unwearying industry that eating
and sleeping come to seem to them like
impertinences, and they are hardly
more than transient visitors in their
households.
In the old Greek and Roman reli-
gions the father of the family was the
priest of the family. A profound sig
nificance underlies this ancient concep-
ton. It is but an embodiment Of the
eternal truth that the highest moral
responsibilities devolve upon a man in
his character of husband and father.
That the married man of to-day often
finds himself unable to spend any con-
siderabl portion of his waking hours
with his own family is owing largely
to the stress of business life and to the
ambitions fostered in country whose
citizens are welcome to the highest po-
sitions in the land if they can win
them But this constant struggle for
material welfare should not be permit
ted to increase so far that the things
that are more excellent are forgotten
or ignored.
Sometimes child dies, and then the
busy father may realize that it was in
deed little stranger who came to him
and went away again. He had watched
the growth of his business with intense
interest and he knew every aspect OF
it; but he had not had time to watch
the growth of child's mind and char
acter. The American wife and mother
can change in a great measure this or
der of things by holding up true ideals
of what constitutes success in life and
of what makes home worthy of
the name; for the husband in great
majority of cases is guided by the wife,
and will bring back to her what she
gives to him. If life to her means moth
ing but money and social success she
binds her husband to wheel that will
gradually crush the best that is in him.
But if it means q moral development
whose source of power is a sympathetic
and nobling home life she will take
care that her husband has time to live.

The Remarkable Performance OF Vl0s
tlm Of the Habit.
Is commercial traveller relates an in
tercsting adventure which he once had
IN a uell-known Boston hotel. He had
4 friend who often made the circuit OF
the New England towns with him,
each selling different line Of goods.
They were good companions, and in
order to reduce expenses occupied the
same room when they were travelling.
One night the drummer was awak-
!ened from sleep by a rustling noise
near. the window The moonlight
streaming in revealed the figure of a
fully dressed man crossing the room
toward the door.
Suspecting that it was sneak thief,
the drummer reached out his hand to
arouse his bedfellow. His companion
was not in the bed. In an instant he
recognized the figure of his friend at
the door, and called him by name sew
eral times.
There was no reply except a strange,
cultural clucking at the throat. The
silent figure paced twice across the
: floor, and then opened the door and
passed out into the hall.
The drummer sprang out OF bed,
quickly dressed himself, and hurried to
the hotel office, where he told the night
, clerk what had happened. AS they
! were talking together his friend came
down the stairway, walked through
the hall into the empty dining-room,
and rapidly strobe up and down lie
was in his stocking feet, but otherwise
was carefully dressed.
The two witnesses approached and
spoke to him, but he took no notice OF
them, and apparently was anxious to
avoid them. Finally he started up
stairs, muttering to himself, and, going
to his room, quietly undressed and went
! to bed, turning off the gas at the last
moment. His friend had followed him
into the room, and remained silent
witness Of these strange proceedings.
The drummer could not sleep until
the mystery was explained. Going to
the bedside, he called his companion by
name, but could not arouse him; then
shook him violently by the shoulders,
and finally awakened him from an
astonishingly deep slumber.
What a horrible dream have had!''
exclaimed his companion, rubbing his
eyes. II have been walking miles and
miles with pair of cutthroat murder
ers close upon my heels, and could
not find my shoes.
He had been walking in his sleep,
without the slightest knowledge OF
what was going on about him, able to
dress and undress himself, to find his
way about the hotel, to unlock doors
and turn OF the gas, but without power
to hear voices or to free himself from
his llideous dream.

what had happened. II used to un'
