Effects Of Sunlight.

Where a river is polluted by sewage
millions and billions Of dangerous mi
crobes flourish in its water and are car
ried along with it to spread disease and
death around its banks unless their de-
velopment is arrested. II the sun does
not shine upon such a river, it may be-
come a peril TO whole communities
But il the sunlight does reach il freely
the germs are destroyed. and the water
is kept comparatively free from infec-
tion.
Recent experiments in Italy have
shown that sunbeams are able to destroy
bacteria in water at depth of at least
90 inches beneath the surface One
might almost liken the rays of light in
such case to javelins and arrows
piercing an enemy, for it has been
found that the destructive action is
greatly diminished if only the perpen-
dicular sunbeams fall upon the water.
The slaughter of the microbes is by
far the greatest when both perpendicu-
lar and oblique rays enter the water un-
interrupted. Like ship in action, the
sun is mcst powerful when it can rake
the enemy with cross fire. And il has
20 shoot its tiny arrows Of light long
way-almost 80, 600, 900 milesl But,
fortunately for us, they get here and
they are effective. Compan-

A Surgeons Terrible Mistake.

"A few years ago." said Charles J.
Patterson Of Philadelphia, II learned
the secret of the life of q man who had
passed more than quarter of "a century
with scarcely n smile. He had been a
physician and surgeon and ON one occa-
sion had to remove an injured eye in
order to save the other eye and prevent
total blindness The night before the
operation he had been drinking heavily
with some friends. and although the
following morning he was sober his
hand was unsteady and his nerves un-
strung.
After administering chloroform he
made fatal and horrible hlunder, re.
moving the well eye by mistake, and
thas consigning his patient to perpetual
blindness. The moment he discovered
his error he turned the man over to a
competent surgeon, decided everything
he possessed to him and hurried from
the neighborhood like a convicted thief
The remainder of his life was one con.
stant round Of remorse. and he rapidly
developed into confirmed misanthrope
The secret of his life was known TO a
number of people, but when it was
finally revealed to me it explained u
mystery and made me respect the man.
for however grave was his original
blunder, which in some respects was of
course worse than crime, his repent.

Almost q Perfect Climate.

The climate of tho Sierra, although
not so very pleasant on account Of the
winds, is extremely salubrious, the heat
never becoming enervating. rs il does
not exceed 30 degrees F., while the
nights are deliciously cool. Lung dis
eases are unknown. and the sanitary
condition of the Sierra may perhaps be
inferred from the reply Of an old Amer.
ican doctor who lives in the now al
most abandoned mining place. Guada.
lupe.y-Calvo When asked him to give
his experience rs TO the health Of the
people. he said: well, here in the
mountains it is distressingly healthy,
despite complete defiance Of every
hygienic arrangement. With the grave
yard, tanncry and the sewers at the
rivers edge, no diseases originate here. -

Like the Del. Of the summer Girl.

The ancient girdle was used for other
material or actual purposes besides that
of a receptacle for money. At it were
hung the thousand and Che odds and
ends needed and utilized in every day
affairs. The scrivener had his inkhoru
and pen attached to it. the scholar his
book or books, the monk his crucifix and
rosary. the innkeeper his tallies. and ev-
erybody his knife. So many and SO va
rious were the articles attached to it
that the iippant began to poke fun. In
an old play there is mention Of a mer-
chant who had hanging at his girdle a
pouch, q spectacle case. a ''punniard," u
pen and inkhorn and IA handkerchief,
with many other trinkets besides, which
q merry companion seeing said it was
like ahaberdasher' 5 shop of small wares. 4"

by both clubs in the three innings
following, when the home boys settled
down to business and sent the visitors
to the field without a score three
times in succession.
The browns had four tallles in their
favor when they were retired in the
first half of the ninth round. but al.
lowed the visitors to cut it down two
and wound up the game with four
score to present to their next victims.
NOTES.
The umpire was ratified at frat but
Williams coming in assisted him to
pull through fairly well.
Bud Conlee got a hot one in the
ribs trying to steal second but a few
burkets of ice water and sympathetic
looks from the ladies resto red him to
his place.
Jack Scanlin was hit on the arm
and from the way he looked one
would have thought he was killed
however the umpires discovered that
he did not strike at it. He wreatbad
bis face in smiles and trotted iauutlv
to first.
The man from the mines ia a 0raat
catcher and no mistake and Sam Nc
Laughlin played first without an err
ror.
Pyaette is great on a slide but a
man can't quite make the total dis
tance between bases that way unless
he has roller skates ON his nose.
knees aud stomach.
The ladies, God bless 'em, wore out
in force and applauded literally even
where they did not understand the
play.
John OMeaIly's face looked like =
saucer in a new tin pan on the return
home so proud was he Of the victory.
The small boy was cut in all his
glory and the veteran cranks with
! snow in their locks, yelled themselves
hoarse at the conclusion of the play,
Verify it was a great play.

BASE BALL.
Ardmore Wipes up the Diamond
With Fort Worth.

Seventeen to fourteen in favor of
the Ardmoreites was the official score
of very interesting game played on
the association grounds here yester-
day, the contest being between the
celebrated reds of Fort Worth and
tho browns of this city; while the
score would seem TO indicate rather
tame affair no one who paid the
gate fee or rolled under the were
fence asked for their money to be re-
turned. The reds arrived ON q
special train accompanied by almost
1000 excursionists and were in a very
good humor indeed, seeming to think
it would be little practice game for
them, aud, to say they run into a sur
prise party, is drawing it mild. The
first brilliant play of the day was
made by Nelse Coleman of the home
team, assisted by a United States
marshal, who "put out" fence climber
before the game was called, aided by
several bystanders and a horse and
buggy.
Game was called about 2:40 with
the browns to the bat and the way
they hammered the leather sphere al
over the diamond was an eye-op0neI
to the visitors. The score keeper
was kept busy making marks unit
the boys had battled around, when
becoming weary of the bench, they
permitted themselves to be retired
with four earned runs to their credit
The look on the boys faces in ret
seemed to say, "Where are We at9'
and after scratching in one run tn,
question was answered by the um
pires statement, "you or out" Th,
browns had now became frisk,

Democratic Meal.

A good joke Is told at the expense OF one
of the delegates to the Astoria convention
from this city, and one that will be duly
appreciated by his many friends in the
county. He has been the executive officer
of the county for two years. and has faith
fully performed his duties to the satisfaction
of Democrats and Republicans. Not being
a candidate for re election. he Is not seek
ing favors, but will always remain true to
Democracy While in Portland, enroute
to the city by the sounding sea. he and two
others stepped into q restaurant for dinner.
When the waiter asked him for his order,
he said he wanted a good Democratic meal,
while the others named two or three articles
on the bill of fare. In good time plate of
soup came to him, which he managed to
diminish very quickly. While the others
were satisfying themselves ON roast beef and
