POLO GROUNDS, NEW YORK. May
ll.-A graz day and n yellow game is
an old baseball saw. The gray day was
with us fast enough and the details OF
the game that follow will show whether
or no II was of an oChrc shade. Capt.
Ward told the writer that he didn't
like these cloudy leaden afternoons. for
II invariably makes the boys heavy and
seamless in their movements.
"Givc us sunshine and plenty OF It,"
said Capt. John, IAN Wen get right In
the game and stay there"
The uniquely uniformed W~ashingtons
got out into the field early for practise,
and they friskcd about the diamond in a
way that showed they wanted ever 50
much to whip off one game to their
credit before they journeyed back to the
Capital.
Ward and his fellow Giants had n line
on them though and didn't propose to
let the Senator's get away with any more
than the law-the baseball law al
lowed.
1t was such easy work for the Giants
to polish off the visitors yesterday that
the local players had a whole lot OF
confidence that to-day would only see
a REPETITION of the slaughter. That is
what the New York rooters looked for
and the Giants cannot win IN to many
games to suit the talent just at this
stage of the season. The attendance
was small.
Next week the Giants will have a hard
nut to crack when they tackle the Phil
a~delphias in Quakerville. and victories
now mean much to the pets of Manhat-
%tanville. Ward decided to give Wester-
Welt a show at the Senators. and he also
took Wilson from his seat on the bench
and made him play backstop.
The teams were thus assigned:
Washington. New York.
Radford. rs. Murphy, IS.
Joyce, 3b. Ward, Oh.
Dugdale, c. Van HRltren, CT.

Mr.. Hurst was. as usual, several min

MADAM PRESIDENT AND FRIENDS
American thought has been noted
for its activity in adopting the pro,
gress of Science. 1t approves the
utmost application of the latest i'm
provements in mechanical forces
accepts doctrines in the newer field
of philosophy; adopts what Fulton
did for navigation, what Morse ac-
complished for the transmission of
intelligence, and what Edison has
achieved in scientific discovery.
But the self-evident proposition of
jefferson, in regard to the source
and application of governmental
authority, has been suffered to re-
main unheeded through century of
experience. We have abolished
most OF the customs and traditions
of the eleventh century: feudalism,
primogeniture, legal entail and hered-
itary privileges of caste. We have
developed love for liberty which
makes old-world potentates fear and
tremble. Yet, we have retained,
with holy admiration, the heaviest
burdens, the greatest curse, which
England sought to impose on the
Colonies:
TAXATION WITHOUT REPRESENTATION"
We have taken centuries strides
in marvellous development of genius,
perfected and brought about through
the forces of steam, and electricity
has brought the old world to oul
shores, to marvel and to learn.
We are an Intelligent people. We
have not only common schools, but
high schools and universities. We
can follow circle made in the
heavens by the telescope of Her

In our views regarding the uni
verse, we agree with Newton, but
in the treatment accorded one.hal
our people, the women of this ma
ton, we coincide with the Aimee
of Afghanistan and, while conced
ing that women, of right and neces

we have fettered her with man-mad'

our states, the very clothes she
wears belong to her husband.
She may keep a clearinghouse
the best years Of her life, and sup
port her children and husband hand
somely all that time, and when
death comes, and the tired hands
are folded to rest, the newspapers

WHAT INJUSTICE From the i'm
perfect gleanings of the eleventh
census report, we learn that, of the
total enumerated breadwinners OF
the United States, more than two
fifths are women, and that those
women of whom we have official
information labor from necessity,
and are everywhere underpaid, is
within the knowledge of every in
telligent man and woman.
1t has been said that woman has a
higher and holier sphere within the
home, but the government, whose
laws we must obey, whose laws We
have no hand in making, comes un-
hidden into every home and broods
at every fireside. The laws we
have no voice in making imprison
the wife for retaining her property,
takes from her the little children
that are dearer than life, takes bread
and clothes and shelter and individ-
uality, and taxes and confronts and
cripples her at every turn, and com
pels her to hobble along on crutches
that the power that has made and
crippled provides for her.
To concede that men mean well
il superfuous. Men are better than
their laws Nay, many of them
imagine that they have reached the
loftiest heights of chivalry when
they administer little judici0us
flattery and call us angels, while
treating US as idiots.
Masculine politics have invaded
and degraded the home. We care
fully and tenderly guard our boys
in infancy and childhood; we bap-
tie them with tears and sanctify
them with mothers prayers. They

ing, and we cannot teach our sons
to respect and revere laws that place
the ban of inferiority upon US, and
send our boys down to drunkards'
graves and drunkards' infamy. We
cannot teach reverence for laws that
will prevent my girl or yours from
holding or selling property, or at
tanning her majority until she is lS
years of age, then enact, by legisla-
ton, that when that little, innocent
child is 10, or IL, or IA years of
age land in some states, the law

she may barter her soul, sell her
virtue and be lost in the hell of
mans baser passions.
The unrest of the times, the rapid
development of social life, and all
the branches of human activity, the
disintegration and dissolution of
long.established customs and ideas
the death struggle of the Old and
the birth struggle of the glorious
New, have brought woman to the
front Gall fettered as she is by legal
disabilities) as an important actor
in the drama of a nations perpe

gagged by a Cornthian text and
bound by legal enactments, she has

AS politics or the science of gov

live-the structure upon which rests
the happiness or unhappiness of our
people-women have resolutely en-
tered that domain of politics and

RIGIDPROHIBITION
South Carolina Supreme Court Makes
an Important Ruling in Liquor
Cases.
Since the Dispensary Law Was De.
clared Unconstitutional There
Is No Power
By Which Liquor Licenses Can Be
Granted-IDjuncti"n Against
Florence Authorities.

ST. LOUIS. May "a special to The
Post Dispatch from Columbia. 8. O.,
says: The dispensary law now gives
way TO rigid prohibition. The supreme
court so declared in announcing its de-
cision in case from Florence. asking for
an injunction torestraln the city council
from granting licenses for selling liquor.
on the ground that there is no law uu-
thorizing the granting thereof. In its
decision, the court says that under the
law as it now stands. there is no au-
thority invested with the power to grant
licenses for the sale of liquor in
this state, and hence the act of the city
council in granting such license
is void, and the court therefore
grants the injunction. The court
also refused motion for the dis
charge of a man namel Brunson, who
was arrested in Florence for selling
liquor without a license. The court
says that the dispensary act of 1892,
having been declared unconstitutional.
in all its provisions except that forbid
ding the granting of licenses to sell
liquor, after a certain date. the repeal
ing clauses of that act must be regarded
as If never enacted, hence the previous
law forbidding the sale of liquor with
out license remained in force.
