The advocate., 1895-06-26

Some reporter at Ottawa told q very
pathetic story to the Associated press.
Ho said Governor Morrill, introduced
Governor Mckinley at the ChautauquR
assembly "as governor OF q sister state,
az q distinguished citizen Of the nation,
and az a true.hearted soldier" ETC.,
whereupon Governor Morrill, shed tears,
and Governor Mckinley followed suit.
Mckinley then attempted to reply, the
report said, but broke down. Then the
audience came to their relief by cheer
ing and advancing to shake hands with
Mckinley. One hates to spoil the effect
Of q nice story, especially when 1t is true,
but then one cannot refrain from sug-
gssting an explanation OF this incident
for the benefit Of those far Eastern peo-
pie who have read 1t In the New York
and Boston papers.
It appears that when Morrill, got to
that part Of his speech pertaining to the
old soldiers, hia mind reverted to his
own valisnt services in the CommissaEy
department during the rebellion; and
how he brsvely refused to be promoted
Ito q position that would take HIM to the
front, saying to his colonel that he was
content to remain in the rsaF and attend
to the coffee and tobacco, RB became
modest soldier. And then perhaps his
mind slid on down to that period after
the war when he and the railroad Off.
Cisls set up a scheme TO do up the set
tiers Of northern Kansas, and he re.
membersd how many old soldiers fell
victims to this skin game, and were
driven to q choice between losing their
homes and putting up hard'earned
money to satisfy the greed Of Morrill,
and his companions in crime.
Then Brother Morrill, came TO that
part Of his piece about Mckinley
being governor Of q sistSr state and his
cruel thoughts tore open more recent
wounds than those he had received in
the CommiBssrY department. He
thought Of his own Vicissitudes as gov

ous promises made before the election
and how hs had been abused for keep

he had fallen from grace and Wickedly

They are sturdy pair, with splendid

Brooklynitcs who favor the proposition arc

The captor Of tho birds seems TO be
fervid patriot, and the patriotic placards
he has had posted all around Md about the

much attention from passersby AZ have
the handsome birds themselves. When tho
eagles were first put out on the sidewalk
people unacquainted with the naughty,

poking sticks at them and stirring them

treat the interference with naughty scorn

take out several strips Of skin. The own

ware, reminding them Of England's ex-
perience In 1875 and 1912, and advising

A Cruel Joke.

A story Is being told of young lady
who found package Of love letters that
had been written to her mother by her
father before they were married. Tho
daughter saw that she could havo a little
sport and read them to her mother, sub
stituting her own name for that Of her
mother and a fine young mans for that Of
her father. The mother jumped up and
down in her chair, shifted her feet and
seemed terribly disgusted and forbade her
daughter to have anything to do with the
young man who would write such sicken-
ing and nonsensical stuff to girl. When
the young lady handed the letter to her
mother to read, the house became so still
that one could hear tho grass growing In
the back yard.-Wilkesbarre OPa.) Leader.

A MODERN PHENIX.
The Town Of Phillips. Wis, and It's Hus-
tling Inhabitants.

Hereafter whenever a man says he Is
from Phillips, Wis, the mere statement
will be accepted as prima facie evidence
that he Is q hustler from tho forks Of the
creek. A year ago Phillips was heap OF
ashes, and it's 3, 600 inhabitants were scat
tered In every direction In wild flight
from the flames. Today new town stands
on the site on the blackened ruins Of n
year ago, and rows Of substantial brick
buildings have taken the place Of those
which were swept away.
Phillips, Wis, of today isa monument
to the courage, industry, energy and Judg-
ment of its citizens. The business blocks
of stone and brick, the county buildings,
the churches and schoolhouses that have
risen from the smoking ruins Of the former
town within & years time evince spirit
Of pluck hardly oqualed In the history OF
tho country A year ago last month fires
were raging In tho forests of northern Wis
consin, many villages wero laid low, and
millions Of dollars worth Of property was
destroyed.
Rumors that the town of Phillips lay In
the path Of the fro had come to tho inhab-
itants of the town only to arouse their
fears, which were dispellcd by n change In
the wind. IL was tho night of July 27,
1898, that, with appalling suddenness, the
flames swept through the town, leaving In
their wake smoldcring desert of ashes.
Hundreds of people were without food OF
shelter, and but for the Immediate response
of tho public to the call for aid much SUI
fering would have resulted.
The sight that met tho eyes OF the citi
zens when tho sun came up the following
morning and the smoke was clearing away
was such IA To dishearten the most deter
mined men. Today Phillips Is city more
substantial, In fact and In appearance
than IL was before tho flames of the burn

kELLEY'S Off DAY.
He Was Batted Hard
Yesterday
BY THE PORTLAND TEAM.
Lewiston, New Bedford and Bangor
Win-The Standing.

Kelley was not strong enough to win
the game from Manager Leonard's men
yesterday, and although this was evident
from the fifth inning yet the management
did not make change. In the sixth In
ming Killeen after striking out twice
lifted the ball over left field fence for a
home run, and O'Rourke repeated the
performance in the next inning. This
was followed by q fusilade OF hits that
won the game. The visitors met the
sphere safely IL times, making a total OF
20 hits.
KIlleen was very effective for the Port
lands. Yeager was the first man to raise
any enthusiasm. He did 1t In the second
inning when he hit straight away to left
field. The ball struck on top of the fence
The home team only succeeded In getting
seven hits with a total OF IL. Umpire
Bradley was little bit OF on balls and
strikes, each team faring about alike. He
lost his "good eye" yesterday, but
there is nothing strange In this, as an
umpire Is as likely to make errors as well
as any one else. Mr.. Bradley, however,
is the king of the New England league
umpires. One OF his good points is that
he does not favor neither home nor visit
ing teams, as he gives his decisions just
as he sees them. Some OF the best batters
of the home team did not find the ball at
all, and as usual poor coaching was very
much In evidence. Daley and Hannivan
allowed two foul flies to drop between
them that might have been easily caught.
Yeager also misjudged a foul fly ball, but
in his case 1t was not SO easy to get, but
in the case of Daley 1t was an easy one to
get and should have been caught. Davis
made poor play on third which was the
cause Of Daley being caught at second.
Daley was at first and started to steal
second. expecting Davis 20 60 home from
third, but the latter never moved and
Daley got out.
Goodhart caught for Portland and made
the only error for the visitors on poor
throw to second. The home team got
their runs py a double by Davis, single
by Daley and homo run by Yeager In
the second, In the eighth a single by
Yeager, base on balls to Kelley and
Lang's single gave them the third and
last run.
For four innings the visitors were
whitewashed, but in the hith Corbett got
q base on balls. Two singles and put
out sent him bone. In the sixth Spill
and Goodhart made doubles, and Killeen's
home drive scored three runs. In the
seventh three more were made on base
on balls, O'Rourke's home run and singles
by Spill, Magoon and Corbett. Yeager
led of in the ninth with two Dagger,
but was unable to get home. 1t was evil
