BASEBALL CHAT.

The League championship Is settled
beyond a peradventure of doubt That
the pennant goes to Baltimore Is a
certainty now, which even accident can
not avert. Down in the nest of the
Orioles they are already loading the
cannon and furnishing up the cymbals
for a demonstration that shall fittingly
celebrate an event which will forever
shine with a lustre from the century's
archives of the town which has produced
and supported winning baseball team.

will go to the winners and the balance

for personal gain, the greatest incentive
possible in any professional sport and
there should be some rare baseball.
There is a suggestion in this which
may be Of use namely, that players sal

A notable object of interest is
described as among the contents
of the Natioual Museum, Wash

which go to make up the average
man, weighing 154 pounds. A
large glass jar holds the ninety
six pounds of water which his
body contains, while in other re-
ceptacles are three pounds of

ten pounds of pure glue, thirty
four and o1e-half pounds of fat,

carbonate of lime, three ounces of
sugar and starch, seven ounces
fuoride of calcium, six ounces
phosphate of magnesia and a
little ordinary table SALT The

ninety-seven pounds of oxygen,
fifteen pounds of hydrogen, three
pounds and thirteen ounces of
nitrogen, and the carbon in such
an individual is represented by

contain the other elements going
to make up the man; these being
four ounces of chlorine, three and

Chinese Advance.

The Edinburg Review.
Vast and populous as China is,
the experience of the present GEN.
tury shows that she is weak for
aggressive purposes. She has not
the hold on territory adjacent to
her borders which she could claim
a hundred years ago. European
nations are pressing on her, both
on the south and on the north.
She has been forced to cede a por-
ton of her territory to England,
and she has been compelled to
avail herself of the help of Eng
lishmen, both for civil administra-
tion and for military command.
All these things show that an ex-
pansion of the Chinese race docs
not necessarily involve an exten-
sion of Chinese dominion. On the
contrary, they tend to prove that
it is the order introduced by Eu-
ropean administration which leads
to the multiplication of these in
dustrious people; and there is,
therefore, at least as raucn ground
for saying that, though Borneo,
Sumatra; and New Guinea. and the
great islands of the Eastern Archi-
pelago, may pe ultimately peopled
by yellow races, they will be gov
erned by The white races, as for be-
lieviDg that a new Chinese Empire
is in process of formation; a
Chinese India may, in other words,
be developed in these great and
fertile islands.

ADJJLTERATION OF COFFEE.
And Nice Things are Not Put
With 1T or in 1t, Either.

Coffee" says DR.. Winslow An
derson, of San Francisco, "now
one of the most universally used
of all beverages, excepting, per-
haps, tea and beer, is usually alb
nominably adulterated. 1t would
seem difficult to initiate coffee, but
it is not. A very fair cup of coffee
is made from black walnut dust,
caramel, and roasted and Drowned
horse liver. This mixture has been
ascertained by chemical analysis
to be in extensive use. Ground
coffee and hotel dccoctions often
contain roasted and ground peas,
beans, potatoes, carrots, corn, rye,
and oak bark. while chicory is sci
dom absent This chicory, by the
way, is itself adulterated with
roasted wheat, rye, beans, acorns,
carrots, parsnips. beet root, baked
livers, venetian red, colored earths,
oak bark, tan, and sawdust. Coffee
grounds from large hotels have
been known to be gathered up,
carefully dried and remixed with
adulterates and chicory, and sold
again as pure coffee. So much for
ground coffee.

eral judge can by injunction pre-
vent an organized body of laborers
from quitting the service of their

fore that same judge will by an ill.,

from issuing all injunction to pre-

lay in these federal courts. They

wrath of all outraged people and

will sweep them away in it's flood

THIRTY YEARS AFTER.
The Freedman's Condition To-
Day and the Slaves.
he Sewanee (Tenn.) Review.

Ahc SCUahec cnn. heVleW.
Theslaves are free-if that can
be called freedom which they now
enjoy.Are they happier? Well,
it is hard to define what happiness
is. Few of them would go back
into their old state, and all would
now bevery unhappy if they could
be 1emanded to it; but as rule,
those negroes who are old enough
to have experience worth remem-
beringdo not hesitate to declare
that the state of bondage was far
happief. The air and manner of
most8of them are sadly changed
for thesworse. The free and open
cheerfIllness, ready to burst out
in peals of laughter, the prompt
and respectful bow, the song and
dancesthe jollity at Christmas,
and the expression of love and
loyaltgsto the white people, are in
a large degree gone.
SurGness and reserve have taken
their place. Crimes have become
tenfoldmore numerous and some,
and Enever heard of in old
times, have become common. No;
if happiness were the end and OBJ
ject Of life, the negroes in the
South could not be said to have
gained. by the change. But bless
edness, mot happiness, is the true
end; and. the new condition has
thrussenormously more response
bllity bupon them, and it may be
that, m consequence, they may in
time use to higher things than
they bow obtain; but it may we'll
be questioned if the new state will
ever match the Christian fidelity
of Uncle Tom, the faithful tender"
ness of Aunt Chloe, and the pa
tiencesand love of Eva's nanny.
