Ioday's Game.

The Portland team has not played a
game at the Augusta driving park, this
season. They have always brought storm
with them. 1t is to be hoped that old Sol
will be more propitious, today. Il will
have to rain hard indeed to prevent the
game. The Portlands are a strong team,
but the Remedies have shown themselves
able to beat them with their star pitcher
In the box. The batteries, today, will
probably be viau ana Butler, Yerrick and
Terrien.
While it would be impossible to predict
a more exciting game than that Of yester-
day, 1t Is cafe TO say that it will be hotly
contested and well worth seeing No one
should miss this opportunity.
At the request of many patrons and to
avoid the growing darkness, the game will
be called at o'clock. instead of 3 80 as
has heretofore been the custom.

wHA1 A woRkINemAN WANTS.
Tye Thinks That An other Workers Want
the Same Thing.

An Industrious carpenter, equipped with
rlane. adj and saw, was fixing up door
that lad got ont Of gear in the house OF a
LAWYER, who sat watching him at work.
Toll me just what it is, +" said the law
yer TO the carpenter, who had taken up
his adj. that the Disseminated working
men want. " :
II speak only for my own trade when
say that every man in it wants to get out
Of it.
what next?''
"To start up something for himself"
"You mean to be boss"
a. mean to do some kind of business on
his own account in which he can make
more.
"Well, said the lawyer, "that is right,
but l would like to know what is the main
thing wanted by the men of your trade so
long as they can't get out of it,"
Better wages, " replied the carpenter
Am to believe that the discontinued
working people about whom we hear SO
much merely want more pay?'
"That is about the thing for every trade,
so far as | know, replied the carpenter,
"but I think that, more than anything
else, the men in most trades want to get
out of them and look for some other chance.
/ can speak for the carpenters anyhow, be-
cause l am the secretary for branch OF
the brotherhood and have talked all my
life with men at our meetings.
AREN'T the wages good?"
"Oh, pretty fair, but l wish 1 could get
out of the trade and so does my wife, az
well as my Oldest daughter. One of the
men in this trade got out of it, and he is
now q Judge on the bench In New York.
OF course, that's better than working at
this trade all my life Iwould like to run
o store of my own, or to be a contractor,
or to have potato patch in the country,
or to be a travelling agent or anything else
by which 1 could leave the carpenters
trade. And believe that nine men out OF
ten in every trade feel just as do"
But" said the lawyer eve could not
get along if all the carpenters left their
trace"
II have nothing to do with that, " re-
piled the carpenter; ''all l want is to get
living outside of this trade somehow.
The lawyer then told the carpenter that
carpenters seemed to be just like lawyers,
as more than half of the lawyers whom he
knew would like to get out of practice if
they conld find any better way Of making
living. He also expressed the opinion
that thus it had been from the beginning
all around, and so it would be to the end,
unless human nature is changed. New

Base Ball Notes.

Only two more games, this season. Don't
miss them.
German Is hustiing, lively player, and
secms-able, too, to hit the ball.
The Remedies have been drawing fine
crowds, In spite of the State fair.
4 The Remedies will have their strongest
batting aggregation in the game, today.
Viau has done strong work against the
Portlands, this season and there is reason
to believe that today will be no exception
to the rule.
The boys are now putting up a great
folding game, and the kindly way in
which they took to Mr.. Williams curves,
yesterday shows that they are still handy
with the ash.
While some close decisions have seemed
to have belonged to us but given to the
other fellow, and while some decisions on
hits along the foul lines have been ques-
tlonable, Umpire Bradley's work in this
city has been fair and impartial, and has
given general satisfaction. We believe he
Is honest and he certainly is firm, o1oe
having taken his position.

feel safe from storm and disaster if they
have a dead wren on board. They have a

assumed many forms. At last it took the

interest. Commenting on the advices re-
ccived the report says: Farmers in
Iowa and Illinois feel pancky on the
situation. and are selling their droves of
pigs before the cholera reaches them i'm
order TO get something out of them. This
is one of the principal causes for the
liberal receipts of hogs at the principal
markets The continued shipment of
these pigs To market can but result in
shortage Of hogs for the late winter and
spring months Every car load of pigs
that goes To market now means q short
age of three ears of hogs later. and with
the unprecedented crop of corn in the
farmers hands the prospects for them
look anything but encouraging. The ad-
vices show that the greatest amount of
cholera reports come from the two larg-
est hog producing States. Illinois aud
Iowa. This fact is significant"
