LATE SPORTING NEW S
PASSING OF THE UMPIRE,
Humiliation of the Latest AppOintee
ON the stan.

Humiliation of the Latest AppOtntee
ON the stan.
Mr.. Redhefer Of Philadelphia appeared
at the base ball park yesterday afternoon
by President Young's selection to umpire a
game of ball between Philadelphia and
Washington. Mr.. Redhcffer wore a pretty
cap, that seemed to give him considerable
trouble at times. He also wore dainty
pair of patent leather shoes. Somewhere
between the two ends he had misplaced
whatever of judgment he may ever have
had on the subject of base ball. The re-
suit was one OF the most remarkable ex-
hibitions of umpiring ever seen in this or
any other city. Washington won the game.
but 1t was not the umpires fault. He die
his best to rattle the players by his deci-
sions, but, fortunately, the home team
showed they could play gilt-edsed ball
when it was necessary, and by timely hit
ting they managed to pull out of the hole,
although in their half of the last inning
the visitors got winning streak on them
and came within one of dragging victory
from the very jaws of defeat.
Hamilton. the first man at the bat, made
the circuit of the bases before his side was
retired. In the second inning the visitors
added three more to this, but two of these
they could never have had if 1t had not
been for the timely assistance OF the UNI
balls ard strikes it would not have been
quite so bad. but he called men out on
bases who We're not out at all, and he
called men safe who were anything but
that.
Washington made two runs in the fourth
ana as many more in the sixth. But 1t
was the fatal seventh that won the game
for them. Crooks got his base on balls
and he uttered a jeerng ha ha he
started off for the bag. He evidently knew
when to laugh. for Abbey and Maui hunted
safely. A couple of muffed flies, two sim
giles and triple tell the rest of the story,
and when the dust had cleared away 1t
was seen that Washngtons merry men
had added seven scores to their list. 1t
looked as though they were on the sunny
side Of easy street then, but their follow
ers had cause for several shoulders before
the game was over. In their half OF the
seventh Philadelphia made two runs and
in the ninth. by hard hitting, they made
four more. 1t was almost enough. but
not quite. and victory stayed with the
home team this time.
After the second inning Umpire Murray
called balls and strikes and Redheffsr was
relesated to the field to look after the
runners. The change was a great I'M
provement, and Murray gave complete sat
isfaction. The score OF the game:

Threatening Weather Mt the Englisl
Athletic Resort.

HENLEY-ON-THAME July 4.-The
change in the weather here during the last
few days BODIES i'll for the success of the re-
gatta. The strong wind and an occasional
rain greatly incommode the practice Of the
crews. The coaches are at their wits end
how to keep the men in good form. The
squalls continued yesterday.
The brothers Nickalls. the Argonauts and
the Dutchmen brave the elements, and do
not relax their practice, although they can
not attempt racing speed. The home
crews were also out today, but the Cornell
men avoided the course this morning, doing
easy work higher up in shelter from the
fierce winds. This afternoon a temporary
hull gave all good chance. Cornell made
the full course in seven minutes and TWEEN
ty-three seconds.
The Canadians still require exercise to
reduce their weight. The Sports Club will
give banquet to the Cornell men and the
Canadians on July 10.

been out skout three and three-quarters
hours. The announcement by the foreman
of the jury was greeted by rousing cheers
from the voices of the people that more

Judge Ross was powerless to quiet the en-

by hundreds, and immedia tely sent a mes

Order in the Divorce Case OF Alonxo
L. COttieF.

Order in the Divorce Case Of AIonxo
L. COttier.
Judge Payne, at Chicago. has entered an
order in the divorce case of AlonZo E. Cot
tier against his wife, Lizzie Cottier. to COM
pei her to disclose the whereabouts of their
child, Florence, who has not been seen by
her father for twelve years. In 1888 Mrs.
Cotter admitted to the Buffalo police that
she had thrown the child into the Niagara
river. Then she was confined in the state
insane asylum. A short time after this
Mrs Cottier said she had given her child
to friends, who are in possession of her.
When the divorce suit was commenced
in Chicago Cottier made motion to have
his wife disclose the whereabouts of the
child. as he did not know whether it was
living or dead She answered by petition
stating that in 1883, just previous to the
statement that the child was drowned. she
had given 1t to woman, who had kept and
reared it ever since in luxury; that she had
not seen the child for two years, and had
agreed with the person who had possession
of the girl that she would not communicate
with her unless something serious happen
ed to the child.
Mrs. Cottier also set up that she did not
know where the child was at present. and
declined to give any information as to its
where abouts, on the ground that if the
father found out he would harass the child.
The answer of Mrs. Cottier shows that
her husband is worth $25O,000. He is liv-
ing in Chicago although not engaged in
any permanent business He has large in
terests in Buffalo, which place he left in
1898 in order. as his wife claims, to obtain
divorce. For number of years Mrs.
Cottier has been engaged in New YoAi and
Washington as an expert Stenographer.
Judge Payne says that the woman must
disclose the whereabouts of her daughter;
but, if necessary, he will give an injunction
preventing Cottier from any communca-
ton with the child until the case is heard.

tanned in every dairy, the whole danoar
is obviated. Having considered the
means of infection of the raw material
let us turn to the finished material the
butter itself. It stands less chance
of deteriorating in winter than in sum-
mer-thanks to the low temperature
but yet it may lose its favor through
a number of channels.
As preventives in this line, the butter
must not be overworked; the butter
milk must be extracted from it; a re-
liable and soluble brand of salt, free
from foreign mineral matter, must be
used; and the product must be put in
clean, aseptic packages.
In the majority Of cases unclean
stable surroundings impregnating the
milk, in the cause of damaging winter
butter flavor. When you have lost the
natural aroma of butter, it is the same
as though the diamond had been bereft
of it's luster-its chief attribute of
worth is gone.
l would make every mixer wash his
hands before sitting down to a COW,
and if necessary sponge eff the animals
udder and teats. This latter precau-
tion, however, will seldom be needed
where plenty of dry bedding is used. I
would also give the stable thorough
airing daily, and if this was not sG&
cient to eradicate odors, would EN-
ploy deodorizer, like plaster, on the
floor after cleaning. By these precau
tions you are not trying to gain any
thing but what should always be four d
in butter, namely, natural flavor. Ma.
ture attends to these points pretty we'll
in summer time, when COWS have the
range of clover scented fields but a
wise dairyman can of1ciate quite we'll
innature's place if he only tries to.
Are you doingit this winter, and thus
preserving the most valuable character
istic of your butter9-GaO. E Newell,

ANRGLECTRD SMALL FRUIT.

"Gooseberries are as good as grapes, I"
said an old Scotch gardener. Why,
then, are they not more generally cul-
tivate5 AS rule they are discarded,
and efforts made to popularize them in
this country have been failures. Eng
lish large sorts mildew and American
varieties are too small Yet the small
est OF gooseberries would be excessively
large were they currants and as re-
spectacle as grapes.
About so years ago, Seeding named
Houghton, from a wild American vari-
ETY., was produced in Salem, Mas A
few years later, Charles Downing pro-
duced new variety of lR ger size,
which bore his name. Aft ,r the intro
duction of the Downirs, no effort
seemed to be made - improve the
gooseberry family, Atil the imported
English variety ,alIed Industry was
sent cut by New York house. This
variety is apparently not at home in
this climate and lacks vigor. While
PAOA0SOANO Al SAO AO4Gn VI 4uSl6IAS ~
is said to be unproductive in the South.
A variety called the Triumph was dis
seminated by Pennsylvania nursery
ten years ego, but its high cost has
prevented it's general planting. An
other sort called Columbia appears to
be Identical with the Triumph.
The Chautauqua, illustrated in Farm
and Home at the time disseminated,
has been found to mildew badly. When
the Red Jacket, of which reproduc-
ton embellishes our column, was
placed on the market, 1 secured SO
plants and have found them to be Wig
orous and healthy and without trace
of mildew the past two seasons. This
variety, by it's vigorous habit of growth
and large fruit, confirms my belief at
this writing that it is the most promis
ing variety yet offered to the public,
the fruit being as large as medium
sized plums. l have found it most
profitable to plant gooseberries in the
autumn, thin out and cut back two
thirds Of the tops. High culture, free
pruning annually and mulching pro
long and greatly add to their produc
tivenees, size and quality by giving
them q constant succession of strong
shoots.-J. W. Adams, Hampden Go
Mass,
