ANOTHER FAvORITE GONE.

From the Chicago Times-Herald.
The conductor leaned laz;ly against the
rail of the platform. Beside him stood a
man wrapped in a deep reserve. In three
miles OF travel the quiet man had not
spoken word. He seemed as one haunt
ed by a deadly fear. Whenever a woman
came his way he shrank back nervously
The car slowed up at the crossing and a
girl In pink shirt waist got down on to
the step and faced the rear platform The
conductor danced up and down excitedly.
"Hey" he yelled. Don't step off back
wards. You ought to know better'n that"
The girl smiled pltylngly. leaned well
forward, and stepped off. She caught her
weight handily on her free foot and
walked away without stagger. The con-
ductor settled back dlsgustedly against the
rail -.
There's another Of 'em," he said.
Another what?" asked the quiet man.
New woman" said the conductor short
ly. Il find EN- once In a while. They

don't know how. but the new woman has
caught on to It,"
"rhen you think that that hoary headed
gag about the way that a woman gets or
a car has about run IT'S course?" asked
ITS done for" said the conductor. "The
new woman has got hold of It. and It will
have to go. along with the Bible and the
rest OF the IDEAS Of the present"
The quiet man puffed thOughtfully at
his cigar. Then he east an apprehenslve
glance about him and leaned toward the
conductor.
II know the new woman" he said in n
hOarse whisper. from A to lizard. She
Il Is who has turned my raven locks TO this
dull gray. She Il Is who has dimmed my
bright eye. and brought about this pre-
mature badness. And I tell you. on my
solemn oath. that the killing of that an
cient jest Is the best thing tha she has
taken up-the best thing that she will ever
accomplish"

BRSE BILL.

Tommy Bannon was yesterday sus-
pended by Manager Barnie Tor abusive
conduct and insubordination, anu
when the circumstances OF the case are
known Bannon's popularity Will not
ave him from unfavorable comment.
Yesterday morning on Penn avenue he
was handed his semi-monthiy pay
check less the fine Of $40 imposed by
Manager Barnie for Bannon's loss or
temper In the turbulent game or last
week Friday, When Bannon glanced
at the amount of the check he accused
the manager ofspartlality and abused
him, whereupon the player was imme-
diately given notice of his suspension.
Although he Is only loaned by the New
Yorks the suspension will hold good
unless the loan is recalled by President
Freedman, but II Is not probable that
this will be done. as In such an event
the New York club would have to pay
Bannon his salary.
The clubs to make the greatest per-
centage gains during the week were
Toronto, Scranton. Springfield and
Syracuse In the order named, while the
biggest percentage losses fell upon
Providence. Rochester, Wilkes-Barre
and Buffalo as named. The following

SCIENCE AND THE FARMER,

From the Pittsburg Times.
Science rendered an important service TO
agriculture in the discovery of the bacilli
for injecting chinch bugs. The discovery
was by Il kanas man. The Kansas far
mer, Ike his brother in every other state,
was slow to believe in it. His doubts held
him back. Meanwhile the enemy to his
crop was advancing. Before II arrived in
force the wheat had been cut, and SO an
attack was made upon the corn. The far
mer turned out to resist II, but the only
means of resistance he had were ineffec-
tive and costly. He resorted to the nfec-
tion, and now believes In it, During the
last few months thousands of packages
Of It have been sent out to different parts
OF Kansas, Missouri and Oklahoma. Each
consisted OF infected bugs, which when
liberated spread among the others. in
fecting them and destroying them rapidly.
In due time man will conquer all the in
sect enemies Of his crops by means which
science will furnish, and when he does the
saving will be immense. Farmers in
many states could have paid Off their
mortgages with what these pests have
robbed them Of In a few years.

Terrors for tho Scrantons johnson
Kept the Encmy's Hits Well Scattered.

If there had been any doubt OF the
decline of Belts as a pitcher, the doubt
was dispelled in three innings yester-
day, during which Scranton punched
him for ten hits, six of which We're
sizzling two-baggers, the whole netting
nine runs six being earned. For Scran-
ton johnson twirled one of his good
games; The was steady as an old-fash-
ioned clock. and kept the enemy's hits
we'll scattered.
After the bombardment of the first
three innings there was never any
doubt as to the result and Scranton's
clean fielding was all the more mer-
torious because OF the fact that Smith
covered first In place of Stearns, who
was sent ito short. Tommy Bannon
having been suspended for insubordina-
tion. Smith would have been played at
short but for his disposition to throw
the ball over the moon, and the wisdom
Of the final arrangement was shown in
the work OF the men. Stearns was
frisky as colt and out Of four chances
missed one that was difficult.
