PITCHER DANIEL w. DACB, BROOkL1N.
 it begins to look as if the ancient and en- thusiastic Chicago chiefs annual bluff at the pennant was this time liable to come very near to realization. For fivo years the Grand Old Man of the diamond has submitted to tho jeers, tho shafts of sar- casm and the ironical jokes of the Chicago press and people, but it had as much effect upon him as boys popgun would have upon tho outside ,urf.l'c of a rhinoceros. Uncle Adrian kept talking about "ncxt year" and ignored the present.
 At last the ''ncxt year. of his dream has come, and, after waiting almost as long as Jacob waited for Rachel, Anso on July f realized the reward of patience, persever- ence and confidence. How the fickle popu- lace fell at his feet Ono year ago he played on his own grounds to half empty stands while those who visited the games went to taunt him. On this years natal day the Chicago rooters tramped upon each other in their mad endeaYors to get within sight of the conquering hero and sec him and his Colts win double victory in their march toward the top. So enor- nous was the worshipful crowd at the aft ernoon game that 0 police riot call was sent out in order to get enough constabu- lary help to clear the field and let the game bo played. In the two games S7, 900 people saw the COltS uOuDlc netlucu victory.
 A year ago last May the baseball critics were united in loud demand for Anson' s withdrawal from the diamond. Now the same critics are seeing which one of them all can sing loudest the praises of tho vic- torious chief. It is another proof of the truisIn that nothing succeeds like success.
 Anson has an advantage which is not of present use alone. It reaches into tho fu- ture. His team is full of young timber players who are "coming," not going. With tho exception of himself the infield is made up of young, growing stars In the outfleld he has, in my opinion, the best fielder, batter and base runner combined in tho Lcague-namcly, Lange Behind the bat he has added two 1lno young catch CTS. He has a great utility man on the bench in Decker, and now he is looking around for young pitchers. He has been building from the ground up, and when the top is reached he will have n team structure which is liable to last.
 The same is true of tho Baltimore club. All the old timber, Robinson excepted, has been replaced by Hanlon with young players Tho result is team which i'm proves and grows stronger year by year as some of those whose stars are going back ward on account of age become weaker.
 The men in control of the Brooklyn club arc converts tc the value of young players. They have strengthened their team materi-

Washable Lingerie.

Just one word on the subject of lin gerie. Those who have adopted the dual styles of underclothes cannot, of course, continue to wear black satin knicker- lockers ill this weather. Let them have three or four pairs made of white wash ing silk, line them with thin nun . veil ing, and these can go to the wash with the regularity ever evinced by the pet ticoat of olden days. No other silk washes so well as this, and no other silk is so light and comfortable to wear.
 The prettiest now petticoats are made of glace silk, with large hounces of muslin trimmed with lace, these fiounces being so made that they can be detached to visit the, 1aundress. Times.

Why He Kept Oqiet.

Two travelling salesmen, more fa1nil- iarly known to the world as drum mers, " were "doing the town.
 One of them wore a huge diamond ring on ln< left hand.
 'I left all my sparklers at home, ' said his friend. "Its not safe to wear 'em around here ill Chicago, especially when man s out at night.
 "I'll risk it," answered the other. "I've never lost any jewelry yet, and I've been in some pretty tight places.
 So they went from place to place, drinking a good deal, talking q good deal and spending money.
 At last they found themselves in a smoky little billiard hall playing a game of pool with some men whom they had never seen before. The diamond on the drummer finger sparkled and fash ed temptingly. After they had played for an hour or more two of the men ill the game did not respond when their turns came, and they could not be found anywhere in the room. To enable them to understand this strange action the two drummers ordered drinks.
 "Where's your diamond?" suddenly

 The other gazed help1essly at his hand. Some clever thief armed with pair of pinchers had nipped tue diamond neatly from its setting, leaving the ring undis- turbed.
 "Can the police! I've been robbedl l know the men. can point 'em out !'' And the drummer rushed madly toward the doorway.
 The crowd expressed the greatest ex- citement, shouting and offering advice all in breath. Two officers were soon on the spot, and they took minute descriptions of the thieves, the names of everybody who knew anything about the affair and then gave the information, with wise shakes of their heads, that Pinch Murphy and Ball Dooley, "way up men," had been seen hanging around the neighborhood for week past. The drummer bemoaned his loss bit terly, and his friend assured everybody that the ring wash t worth a cent less than $500.
 After a time the two drummers were alone.
 "I told you it 'ud get nipped," said the one who had been wise enough to leave his jewely at home.
 "Oh, come off!'' was the reply. "It was only paste. Ipaid quarter for it. ''
 "What are you kicking up all this fuss for, then?" growled the other, an grily.

tween each puff was row of beads. The forcarms were of the taffeta and had frills of white chiffon, tho under part hanging down twice as deep as tho rest. It was a quaint and odd idea, but very becoming to any one.
 One of the prctticst of the novelties of this summer is the crepe lisse ruffling worn at the top of the neckbands. This is made waterproof by the same process that makes the crape yelling proof against dampncss. Every one who has had n crepe lisse ruf1le wilt inside of ten minutes on 8 warm day will appreciate this. This ruff fling has a softening effect on elderly faces, but makes young ones look like Easter eggs. OLIVE HARPER

Sail. little boat, sail out of the bay
 To the radiant west, Swift as bird. To my dear heart say
 That love is best. Bear him message, a message sweet
 (My heart thy freight), And haste where the surge and the shallowa meet
 At the golden gate. Speed fast away with enchanted crew
 And snow white wings, For peace and joy are aboard of you
 And soul that sings. What though the wind aVd the wave divide
 And the way is long. The currents of ocean are deep and wide,
 But love iS strong.

CAYLOR'S BALL GOSSIP
Uucle Anson Again the Hero of
 the Diamond.
HIS COLTS ROUNDING INTO FORM.

After Waiting Almost Long as Jacob
 Waited For Rachel the Grand old Man
 of Baseball Has All Chicago at His Feet.
 Baltimore's Great Team.
 July 5 practically ended the first half of the National league pennant race. Each club had six scheduled games with each other club checked off, though nearly a score altogether have been postponed, and when the eastern clubs started west upon their second long trip the latter half of the season began.
 It found tho champion BaltimOrcs in tho lead. This fact is reminder that the season has been full of surp1i iscs. A week before the Fourth tho BOstonS were in the lead and were playing such winning ball on their home grounds that an impression went abroad that they would twin gallop- ing" " to use n raco track expression. At the height of their triumph the Bean Eaters left homes and mothers, removed to the wilds of Philadelphia and began their downfall. The hard hitting Quakers fell upon the Boston pitchers, and Nash's men went down into the dust threc successive times. Thence the OK champions journeycd to Brooklyn and kept up their slump with two more reverscs. The five defeats, cou- pied with doublo victories by tho Pitts burgs and Chicngos on tho Fourth, sent the Bostons down to fourth place.
 But there are other surprises on the base ball card. Uncle Anson heads one of them with his stable of Colts. At this writing

Like his father, he martyr president, he is lawyer md graduate of Williams college and sntering politics at the age of 2S, like his father, 36 years ago. He has been married little more than year, and, strange to relate, like his father, too, he has been nominated for state senator of Ohio in the very Portage-Summitt district that elected James A. Garfield state senator ill 1859. Another odd thing in connection with young Gar field nomination is the fact that July }, the day he received the nomination, was the fourteenth anniversary of the day when the bullet of Assassin Charles Jules Guiteau laid his distinguished father low.

Thousands Of acres in the middle and

crimson clover, which in Delaware is
exerting as much excitement as alfalfa
has raised in the central west, while
experiments with crimson clover are be-
ing made in New England and also in
the central and western states. A Della
ware farmer tells In The New England
Homestead that crimson clover Is one of
the best crops to use in connection with
orcharding, trucking or berry growing
Ittills the rotation exactly. For instance.
plant peas in the spring and follow with
tomatoes for the cannery as soon as the
peas are off. When you lay tomatoes by,
seed with crimson clover. Thus the
ground is occupied with some crop all
the time, and in the following May, if
soil and season have been favorable, you
will have a crop Of clover two or three
feet high to cut for hay or ensilage, and
good crop of stubble and roots to turn
under to enrich the soil Corn, potatoes
or any other crop may follow This is
only one instance. Many orchards are
seeded with the clover, either to pillow
under as fertilizer or to be cut for hay.
