At last the new base ball schedule is
out 1t made its appearance after the
Fourth of July games, and it was an
nounced that it is final. This, of course,
is to be taken with a grain of salt, al
though the League looks much better
to-day than at any time since the first
meeting Of managers at Steubenville.
This latest schedule, the seventh in
number, is not entirely satisfactory to
the home club. There should be more
Saturday games at Wheeling. This
city has been drawing the largest
crowds, and the attendance since the
club came home from its last trip, has
been more than satisfactory. The num-
Der of spectators at the Island Park on
the Fourth was almost as large as the
entire population of the Twin Cities.
Another big crowd witnessed yester-
days games. If the home club drew aA
we'll on its trips there would be a nice
margin on the right side at the end of
the season. As it is, Wheeling seldom
gets more than the guarantee away
from home while the crowds here sus-
tain such clubs as Twin Cities and one
or TWO others.

If Sunday ball was played here,
Wheeling alone could support the
League. Columbus is a larger city, but
the attendance is not as good That
city has been represented in the Ameri-
can Association, and there is a feeling
prevalent that an Interstate club is
not big enough for Columbus. Yet, in
spite of this, no league is putting up a
better quality of ball than the Inter
State, and the Wheeling end Of it is

Yesterdays games were of the sort
which beget RIOTERS" The echo of the
cheers which went up from the ball
park in the eighteenth inning yester-
lay might have reached the ears of
President Ziegler. Wheeling fans"
are growing in number daily, and the
knowing ones regard this Us a healthy
indication. The chilly disposition of
the crowd has disappeared and the
spectators are ready and anxious to ap-
plaud every good play. Wheeling is
playing a splendid game, in spite of the
crippled condition of the club. With
a patched-up team we took two games
from the Limas and three out Of four
from the Uhrichsville crowd last week.
We have crawled up two nOtches, and
if the present gait continues will soon
be on top of the pile. The fact cannot
be disguised. however, that the team is
badly in need of some new material, and
it is not at all improbable that there
will be a general shaking up within
the next week or ten days.
If the Iron and Oil League disbands,
the consolidation of the two organiza-
tiOns. which matter has been agitated,
may be effected. This deal would not
mean the dropping Of any of the pres
ent Interstate clubs. Washington
would probably be admitted, and the
eight club circuit would likely be
completed by Newcastle or some other
strong Pennsylvania town. The Iron
and Oil people have been long on sal
aries and short on attendance. They
need a Ziegler at the head of their
organization.
The Metropolitan Athletic Club offers
a very attractive bill for its next enter
tainment, which will be given at the
club house in Fulton Tuesday night.
The contestants will be the clever light
weights. John Parry, of Homestead,
and Michael Farragher, of Springfield.
0. The latter comes with a record of
victories over good men. which, if rec
Ords count for anything should make
him a formidable opponent for any man
i'm his class. Parry also has a splendid
record. He gave Jerry Marshall
tough argument before the NJ. A. c..
and made friends of all the spectators
by his cleverness and his manly tactics
in the ring. He is a deserved favorite
in Wheeling. In his second contest be-
fore the club. he got a decision over Cal
lagher, of Pittsburg. in one of the pref
test contests ever witnessed in any
ring. Parry was deficient in some re-
spects when he entered the ring with
the clever Antipodean, but he learned a;
great deal in his two contests here, and
he is a much better map now. Far
ragher is comparatively unknown here.
Wheeling lovers of the manly art ap-
pear to select FitZsimmons as the win
ner in his coming battle with Cham
pion Corbett, but it is very likely that
in many instances the wish is father to
the thought "Lanky Bob made many
friends when he visited this city, and
some of them will be at the ring side
when he has his argument for the COW
eted championship. Unless some unfor-
seen trouble arises the two big fellows
will meet on August 31st If Billy
PHmmer and George Dixon come to-
gether at the same time, it would be a
, hard matter to pick the winner.

Very Simple People.

The simple people of Alsace, who
retain in their hearts strong love for
France at the same time that they are
DESTROYS not to offend their German
rulers too much, have hard time of
it when they are brought to the bal
lot-box to vote for representative In
the German parliament. In one
election in certain Alsatian district,
the two candidates were Kable, an Al
satan OF French sympathies, who had
protested against the annexation after
the war of 1870, and a German. On
election day, a peasant came to the
polling place, having in one hand a
ticket on which was printed the name
OF kable, and in the other a ticket
bearing the name of the German can
didate. ''Mein Herr" he said to the
German election officer, "will you tell
me which of these two tickets is the
better one?" The officer looked at
them. why, this is much prefera-
ble," said he, indicating the German
ticket. "Ah, I thank you!" answered
the peasant; Il will keep it next my
heart.'' He folded it carefully and
put it in his inside coat-pocket. 'As
for this other, them said he, with an
air of putting it away from him az an
unworthy thing, II will leave it here. y
And he put the Kable ticket in the bal

Ehe Same Stones, Dolly Differently
Colored.
The finest pigeon blood" rubies come
from Burma, those from Siam or Cey-
ION being too dark or too pale, and the
Montana stones being cloudy and
brown. A perfect one carat specimen
may cost 5000 while diamond Of the
finest water of the same size can be
bought for $125, says the Houston Post.
The rich color Of the ruby, color
which does not blacken like the blue
Of sapphire by hight, Is supposed to
be due to trace Of oxide Of chromium
but this is still moot point with chem
lists, and all are not even agreed as to
the sapphires velvet dnge.
This latter stone is much less valua-
bic than ruby, being found larger and
more abundantly. Sapphires really
present all colors, the pure white varie-
", when skillfully cut, being difficult
to tell from a diamond. This decep-
ton honest jewelers. frequently practice
to catch the unwary. Both rubies and
Sapphires are occasionally met with as
''star stones'-that is, opaque cabochon
cut gems showing the perfect steely
rays of a star. A star ruby is excess
sively rare, but the sapphire star is
fairly common.

Japanese Pockets,

Japanese folks have SIX or eight peck
cts cunningly inserted In the cuffs of
their wide sleeves. These pockets are
always filed with a curious miscellany
peculiar to the drou title people. AS
common as Irvine in Young America s
pocket is the prayer amulet written on
delicate sheets Of rice paper and COM
posed by the BONES. In accordance
with the abiding and funny faith of the
Japanese women these prayers are
swallowed, paper and all, like pill in
cases OF mental and physical distress.
Another essential. never missing, is
a number of small squares Of silky
paper, which is put to the most unex-
pected purpose-to hold the steam Of
q lotus or lily, to- dry teacup, wipe
away a tear or blow the absurd little
nose of the dolllike little woman. The
very smartest people in Japan use this
style OF handkerchief for practical pur-
poses.

COACHING THE BEST MAN.
An Outline Of tho Important Duties He
Is Called Upon to Perform.

"a chum Of mine (young many is
about to be married. I have known
him and the girl he is going to marry
long time. He asked me to be his
best man. This is the first time am
to stand up for anybody and I would
like to get some points on what to do.
Will you kindly give me some idea
what to present the couple with?
Kindly let me know just what best
man is supposed to do. They are going
70 Washington and have asked me to go
along. What am supposed to do and
what expenses should I bear?
IGNoRAMUs."
In answering the above the Brook
En Eagle says:
The best man is not always un-
married, but he is usually selected
from groom's bachelor friends, and
is supposed to be as much his intimate
as ordinary men ever choose to have.
To him is confded the route of a
wedding journey, and he secures
arawing-room seats, telegraphs for
rooms at hotels-if hotel is in the
plan of a wedding journey; sees that
the baggage is properly checked, pro-
vided the groom has no valet, &C
companies him to the church, stands
next to him during the ceremony, pre-
sents the clergyman with his fee, and
afterward, if requested by the BRIDES
family, sends to the press an adver-
tisement of the marriage, particulars
for which are furnished by them, also
by the groom, whenever his line of
descent or special titles are added to
the same. OF course, the cost
Of all this is borne by
the groom, except, perhaps, the ex-
pense of the press, which the brides
father will choose to defray y. A best
man is last to leave the church, but at
the reception later he is at liberty to
Join the guests or take a place by the
maid of honor. He goes to the rail-
way agent or steamer to see the
bridal party off, provided the distance
to the place of departure is not too
great, and then returns to the parents
Of the bride to bring back their greet
ings. The best man relieves the
groom of many essential details and
every care possible at a time when a
bridegroom has right-if such right
is due any man at any -time-to per-
tect freedom and from every anxiety
and every duty. It is his hour of hap
piness, and to be truly content tran
quillity of mind is a necessity. OF
course comrade is undeserving the
name of a friend if he is not glad to
make, if possible, this bridal day a
perfect memory. The secret-if it
has been kept secret-of the destin-
alton of the married travellers is his,
and he protects it. Indeed. nobody is
likely to ask it of him.

How Gunpowder Helped to Plant
Trees ON a Rocky CYax.

Trees ON a Rocky CTag.
Alexander Hasmyth, the landscape
painter, was man fruitful in ,expe-
dents. TO his mind, the fact that a
thing could not be done in the ordin-
airy manner was no reason why it
should be given up. His son relates
the following interesting example of
his ingenuity.
The Duke Of Athol, says he, consulted
MIN as to some improvements which
he desired to make in his woodland
scenery near Dunkeld. Among other
things, a certain rocky crag needed to
be planted with trees, to relieve the
grim barrenness of its appearance.
The question was how to do it, as it
was impossible for any man to climb
the crag, In order to set seed or
plants In the cleft Of the rocks.
A happy idea struck my father. Hav-
Ing observed in front of the castle a
pair OF small cannons, used for firing
salutes on great days, it occurred to
him to turn them to account A tin
smith in the village was ordered to
make number Of canfsters with COW
ers. The cannisters were filled with all
sorts OF suitable tree seeds. The can
mons were loaded and the canist,,rs
were fired up against the high face of
the rock. They burst and scattered the
seed In all directions. Some years at
ter. when my fathe revisited the place
he was d lighted to see that his
scheme OF planting by artillery had
proved successful; the trees were
dourishing in all the recesses Of the
rock.-London Answers.

NO WATER FOR THESE ANIMALS.
Deer, Antelope and Coyotes Who Live in
American Desert Places.

l. 1
Dscr, Antelope and Coyotes Who 1.-Two /,
American Desert Places.
Students of natural history have
always been puzzled to know whether
certain animals can live without water
for q long time, says the New York
World. In Central and Southern New
Mexico there is an immense desert
to which the earliest Spanish adventur-
ers gave the name Tornado del Muerta,
or Journey to Death. This desert is
over 100 miles long and from thirty to
seventy miles wide and is entirely
waterless. This is known to be a fact as
every mile OF it has been traversed in
the past twenty years. The nearest
permanent water to this desert is the
Rio Grande, from which it is separated
by the lofty range known as the Ca
vauos mountains, which are almost
impossible to man or beast. Previous
to 1880 this desert was inhabited bv
vast herds of antelope. There are
some antelope there now, besides
coyotes and other animals. From Nav
to September is the rainy season in
this region, and the moisture derived
from the scanty heritage might be suf-
ficient to sustain life, but during the
other eight months there isn't drop
of water obtainable, and the vegetar
ton is as dry as finder. It is claimed
that many wild animals feed in the
early morning and thereby obtain
an abundance of moisture from the
dew which covers the vegetation, but
in the elevated region of Tornado there
is no sensible precipitation of dew in
the dry season.
The most desolate territory in North
America, south of Labrador, is tho
peninsula of Lower California. Cape
San Lucas is the extreme southern
point, and about ten miles north of
this spur of mountains runs from
west to east, or from the Pacific to the
gulf OF Lower California, forming, as it
were, basin toward the cape. This
basin is mostly covered with a dense
growth OF dwarf trees, growing lux
uriantly out of the dazzling white sand.
Not particle Of surface water is to be
found anywhere in this basin, and,
strange as it may seem, this place has
deer. The Mexicans living here, when
asked where the deer get water, reply
that there is none and the deer do not
require any. The east and west coasts
OF Lower California abound in islands.
some OF which are few hundred yards
in diameter and others miles in extent,
and with few exceptions void of veee-
tat1on and utterly waterless. An
American who has spent day, and
sometimes two days, on each Of these
islands, reports having found there the
coyote, or wild dog. The only water
the thirsty coyote may drink is the salt
water of the Pacific But does he
drink it, or does he get along without
any drinking water at alp Or are
these animals of the Southwest like the
camel, which has a second stomach
which is used as reservoir for water,
and is filed by the camel before going
on long desert journeys and drawn
upon for water when needed? It is
said that Arabs, knowing this, when
themselves suffering from thirst, slay
their camels and appropriate thei,
water supply.

Evolution of the Folding Bod.

Mrs. De Flat--Have you anything
new in folding beds?
= Dealer-Only this, madame, and it
really is quite a success. On arising
in the morning you touch spring,
and it turns into washstand and
bath tub. After your bath, you touch
another spring, and it becomes a
dressing case, with French plate
mirror. If you breakfast in your
room, q slight pressure will transform
it into an extension table. After
breakfast you press these three but
tons at once, and you have an upright
piano. That's all it will do, except
that when you die it can be changed
into a rosewood coffin.
