AuGITsT 3. 1895,

AUGUST ), 1925.
During the past ten days Michigan's pop
uar northern resort has been enjoying some
of its ideal weather together with share of
rainy weather. The showers have extin-
guished the forest fires and brought about a
return Of that pure and exhilerating atmos-
phere so much sought by the sufferers from
asthma and hay fever. The nights continue,
however, cold and damp and make extreme
precautions against colds necessary.
For the past three days Bay View has
been experiencing wet season. No heavy
showers, but steady November rains have
prevailed; but Notwithstanding the extreme
need of rain everybody is complaining and
wishing 1t would stop. Eager to enjoy to
the utmost every precious moment of their
limited time the selfish resorters will be sat
isfed only to have 1t rain nights and Sun
days in order that Hone of their pet plans
of enjoyment for the coming days may be
broken.
The season is now at Its height with the
attendance at the assembly twenty per cen,
above any former season. There is more
and better society here this year than evel
before and many more means of social en-
joyment.

Sporting Notes.

SpoitihS A~oeSo'
Ed. Shields has signed with the Lansing
club.
Battle Creek has dropped out of the
league.
The Mutuals played at st. Louis on Fri
day last. Score to 4. 1t was an exciting
game.
The Colts were defeated twice at Port
Huron. Wednesday. Both games were ex-
citing. Score 4 to and IL to 5.
The Colts escaped a shut out at Kalama-
zoo yesterday by making scores in the
ninth inning. Kalamazoo scored times.
A. E. Willover is acting as manager of
the club with Bloomington as assistant.
Pitcher Kern succeeds Ed. Shields as cap
tain.
One of the most exciting games of the
season was played here on Friday last, when
the Colts defeated the Battle Creek c'nb by
Il score OF . to 8 in eleven innings.
AT meeting of the directors of the State
league that was held in Jackson, Monday,
Jackson was given the franchise of Battle
Creek. Pres. Mumby and A. e. Willover
were in attendance.
Port Huron 81, Owosso Z is the sad story
of the game Monday at Port Huron. AS it
is the first time the Colts have been de-
feated by that team we will try and forget
all about it. Tuesdays game was postponed
on account of rain.
The game Saturday was the best one
played on the grounds this year. But few
errors were made on either side, and in
most of the innings the players were out
at the first base. But one Battle Creek
player got as far as third base and the club
made but three hits off of Kern. The score
was to in favor of the Colts. 1t was the
first State league game in which one of the
clubs was shut out.
The statement sent out from Battle Greek
! that the Owosso club would soon drop out
of the State league is without foundation.
Owosso does not do business that way. The
club will be given all the financial aid
needed to carry it through to the end of the
season. The expenses have been largely
reduced under the new management and
there is good reason to believe the receipts
will take care of all expenses.
F. Z. Wicking, treasurer of the old base
ball management, requests that all persons
interested in the matter call at the store OF
Wickng & Storrer and examine the base
ball books. II you have paid anything to
the old management, call and see IL the
proper credit has been given and also
where and to whom the money was paid as
shown by the treasnrer's books. An exam
ination on the part of those interested will
do much toward removing the dissatisfac-
ton with the management that has been
manifested.

CLEANING CUT GLASS.

If fine cut glass water bottles get
dingy inside rinse them occasionally
with little muriatic acid. and then
rinse in clear, cold water very thor
oughly. Muriatic acid will remove
stains and impurities, and greatly i'm
prove the brilliancy OF the glass. But
ashes, sand or shot, which many use
to cleanse glass, scratch and injure the
glass and do not bring back the
original lustre. Besides the lead in
shot is poisonous, and if any is left
through carelessness in the decanter
it might do great harm. II the cut
glass becomes tarnished or blurred
polish it with very soft brush on
which is sifted very fine and soft whit
ing, and it will be restored to its
original beauty. Or Q very soft piece
of newspaper can be used to polish
glass. Wet the piece of newspaper
slightly and gently rub the glass. Be
careful not to give the frail thing Q
twist in rubbing it-that is, carrying
one hand in an opposite direction from
the other-which is the quickest way
to break anything. After that repeat
the work with some dry, soft paper.
It is said that the printers ink causes
newspapers to give finer polish when
cleaning glass than anything else.
However this may be, no lint remains,
and the polish is brilliant. New York

THE NEW YORK AT KEEL.
The Germans Awarded Her and Her Sister
Ships the Palm.

Tho Germans Awarded Her and Her Sister
Ships the Palm.
Captain Robley D. Evans, commanding
the war ship New York, In letter to the
Navy Department gives an enthusiastic ac-
count of the magnificent reception given the
American representatives at the naval cele-
bration recently held at Kiel, Germany. To
use Captain Evans's own expression the
American war ships took all Of the "blue rib
bons" duringthe festivities. so far as the naval
display was concerned. The cruiser New York
was the object of special attention and ad-
miration by the representatives Of the Ger
man and English navies. and they pro-
nounced her the best appearing ship present
at the celebration. They admired the con-
struction OF the vessel, her armament, her
equipment and the discipline maintained by
the yankee" crew. The German news
papers printed column after column Of
extravagant comments upon the display
made by the American ships.
The German Emperor was particularly i'm
pressed with the New York. He made several
visits aboard, and never seemed to grow
weary of admiring her. He made several
close inspections of her guns, her machinery
and her general equipment, and he was freely
quoted in the Germa | newspapers as COM
plimenting the American navy.
Even the English officers were profuse in
their admiration OF the New York, and they
admitted that the Americans made the most
attractive display with their four ships, the
New York, the San Francisco, the Columbia,
and the Marblehead.
The comments upon the American ships
made in the German newspapers were not
sent out by the news associations at Kiel, rs
they are controlled by Engishmen. Captain
Evans's letter contained numerous clippings
from the papers referred to, and they show
that the German press was not backward in
awarding the palm to the American vessels
and officers.
