RAISING FUNDS FOR Y. M. C. 4.
Athletic Young Christians Improving
Their Muscles.
Last Fridays Reception to state
Secretary Speares-The Base
bali Section.

Although class work has been largely
suspended in the Young Mems Christian
Association gymnasium during the
heated term, there are many persons who
are taking exercise each day by the ad-
vice of physicians, so that the gymna-
sium continues TO present a scene of
busting activity. Hand ball. tennis and
kindred games are popular among the
members of the association at this season.
The religious meeting held on last Sun
day afternoon was led by E. E. Milby. The
day was very hot, but those who attended
the meeting took off their coats and made
themselves comfortable. The parlor is a
comfortable place in summer so there is
no need OF remaining away from the
afternoon meetings on account OF a little
warm weather. one of the most attract
i've features last Sunday was flute duet
rendered by Harry Beauchamp and John
Fecb ter.
Harry K. Harvey, who was prominent
IN local association work couple OF years
ago, has recently been elected manager of
the baseball club Of the Millard-avenue
Department of the Young Mems Chris
tian Association of Chicago. The club
announces itself ready TO meet engage
ments, and IS anxious to encounter rivals
for the hon0rs OF the diamond.
The association of Sacramento has been
run on a most economical basis during
the past few months on account of the
hard times, and the amount of work ac-
complshed under prevailing conditions
Is really surprising. The association is
doing more than any other in the State
in proportion to the amount of money
expended, although Sacramento is far be-
hind other and smaller cities in associa-
ton work.
Last Friday evening members' rally
was held at the rooms. State Secretary
John Il. Speares was present and gave an
interesting account of his recent trip to
the \. NJ. c. A. International Convention
at Springfield, Mass. Mr.. Speares was
much impressed with the grand increase
Of the work during the past few years.
At this meeting q practical scheme was
brought forward to clear the association
debt. Books containing ten receipts for
81 each were given out to members and
their friends, each of whom will seek to
dispose OF his ten receipts. It is expected
that the com bined effort of the mem ber-
ship will do much TO place the association
upon a solid footing financially. Fifty
two books have already been given out.
and some substantial returns have been
received. The management are exceed
ingly anxious to raise the amount of
money necessary to liquidate the present
debt, 30 that next year the work may be
enlarged along the educational and other
lines.
The board, at its last meeting, covered
the financial condition thoroughly and
found much encouragement in the pro-
gress that had been made during recent
months. The managers heartily indorsed
the present General Secretary in his un-
firing efforts to promote the cause.

ground of religion and morals. The queen
herself did not oppose the alliance, al
though, with a kind Of prophetic instinct,
she alluded feelingly to the fate Of Marie

That Watermelon Bug.
Nothing but an Old Acquaintance
the Scarabeus, After all.

WASHINGTON, May2--Mr. Coquil-
lett. eutomologiat of rhe department. Of
agriculture. has recently returned to
Washington and reported upon his ex-
animation of the watermelon fields in
Southern Georgia. The black bug which
was thought to be damaging the plants
proves to be the plain, ordinary dung
beetle. It had evidently been attracted
to the plants by the fertilizer used and
vas doing no damage. The principal
insect damage to melons appears to
have been by wire worms aud cut
worms 1t is not likely this damage
will continue to any serious extent.
Aoy field broken up from sod or land,
upon which grass has been allowed to
grow to any degree during the past
season. il liable to contain numbers Of
wire worms and cut worms Ii pre-
pairing land for melons in future. the
department. says, growers will find 1t of
great advantage to plough in the fall,
early rather tbap late. and leave the
land bare during the winter. Then in
early spring, as soon as grass begins to
come up in adjacen' fields, sprinkle
here and there throughout the field
which is to be planted in melons
punches of grass or any other green
vegetation which have previously been
poisoned by spriukling with paris
green 10 solution. Such of the cut
worms as may be present in the land
will feed upon this vegetation aud will
be killed. It will also have the effect
Of destroying many Of the live ~orms.
Mr.. Coquillett says that the advance of
disease among melons is not due to
insects. aud information concerning
this matter has been transmitted to
Prof. Galloway, chief of the division
of vegetable pathology of the depart
ment, who will probably investigate it
later 10 the season.

The conveyance of the current to cleo,

has never before been attempted or
even approached and much interest,
therefore, attaches to this part of the
plant. In addition to doing away with
the Inconvenience and consequent loss
of time in making transfers By steamer
at Canton, the belt line will provide
other facilities, for which the Baltimore
and Ohio Company has greatly felt the
need and will figure largely 10 reducing
the annual expenses. There will also
be a great saving of time in passenger
train schedules between Washington,
Philadelphia and New York. The

which will 60 into effect on May Il.

An Officer Beng Court Martialed
on the Charge Of Perjury.

WAsu1Seroy, April 30 The court
martial of a navai officer for perjury Is
a novelty 10 naval experience 10 the
United States. so far as the best memo
ries go. This, however, is the leading
specification under which Medical In
spector Edward Kershner, feet surgeon
Of A dmiral Meade's squadron, has been
ordered by Secretary Herbert TO appear
before a court martial at the New York
navy yard on Monday, May 6. The
detail of the court consists of Rear Ad-
miral John G. Walker, president; Com
modore Rush R. Wallace, Capts. AL

F Picking, Medical Directors Edward
S. Bogert and Henry M. Wells, Medi-
cal Inspectors Chas. H. White and
Thomas N. Peurose and First Lieut.. c.

The FIRST charge relates to a violation
Of the naval regulations by Dr.. Kersh-
uer in forwarding privately to Surgeon
General 'Tryon, Medical Director Deve-
Ian Bloodgood, retired, substitute cop
les of Capt. Evaus' report with Admi-
raj Meade's endorsement regarding the
failure of she doctor to 60 as ordered
on board a Nova Scosian vessel at

an emergency call. These documents
we're subsequently published in news
papers in The United States. The Sec
ond charge is that Of scapdalous co.,
duct to the destruction of good morals.
aud its first specification %recises that
Dr.. KerShuer being in a court of in-
quiry on the New York at Kingston,
upou oath testified that 10 copies or
part of any correspondence had left
bis band, except a second endorsement
of the admiral, we'll knowing that his
sworn testimony vas false and intended
to deceive.
Naval officers declare there is no
precedent FOR such a charge. In March
1892. Commander james D. Gresham,
commanding the monitors at Richmond,
was convicted Of simple f~alsehood, but
not Of perjury.
