Tables Turned OH the Men from Old

Special to the Scranton Tribune.
Washington, April 1.-THE tables
were turned in the Prince
ton series today, the Tigers going under
to the tune of II to IL. Four pitchers
were put in against the blue and grey
sluggers, while Mahoney, the George
town giant, pitched out a wonderful
game. Even though six costly errors
were made behind him, he kept Prince
toms nine hits well scattered, sand
wiched in eleven strike-outs and gave
but three bases on balls. Georgetown
got nineteen hits with total of thirty
five bases. Nine runs were made in
three innings off Bra dley; six in two
innings off Hitzroth, and two in two
innings off Wilson. The last named
was taken out when Georgetown was
commencing to land on him, and the
freshman pitcher put in.
He celebrated his entire to the dla-
mond by striking out three men In
succession. A feature of the game was
Williams steady work behind the bat
while under fire from four different
pitchers. The other three Scranton
boys played nice fielding games, al
though each had an error on hard
chances. Murphy got in his usual
home run. The score:

degree Of civilization such as was
known to no other portion Of the north
ern continent. The ruins Of scores Of
cities which must, from the extent Of
the remains, have been Of very cOnsid-
cradle size, and probably had each q
population of many thousands, attest
the former populousness Of the coun-
try, while all over Guatemala the pres
ence of irrigating works Of great ex-
tent, the remains of highways over
grown with forest trees, the ruins of
temples and palaces show that the
country must have had POWERFUL, or
ganized administration, capable Of TAX
ing in hand the functions Of govern
ment, and also Of looking after the gen
eral interests and welfare Of the people
in a manner similar to that Of the
Peruvian Incas.
The remains of upwards Of fifty cities
antedating the Spanish conquest have
been found in Guatemala alone, and
this number in a territory only two
thirds the size of Missouri probably in
dicates a density of population similar
to that of the most crowded parts of
Europe to-day. The word probably
is advisedly used in this connection,
for aside from the statements Of the
Spanish explorers, little or nothing Is
known as to the number Of the nations
that once inhabited Central America.
The only ancient structures whose
use can positively be stated are the
huge pueblas, or communal towns, In
which all the inhabitants resided under
a common roof and in a sort of fortress
of their own construction. Best known
to us from their presence in parts OF
New Mexico and Arizona, these curious
community towns are found in great
numbers in Mexico, and to some extent

prising men, would make the State not
only by far the most important In this
section of the continent, but, also, capa-
BILE Of welding no inconsiderable le-
gree Of foreign influence. The country
is an elevated table-land, rising abrupt
ly from the Pacific in n range Of LOFTY

to the sea on the east coast. 1t Is n
continuation of the table-lands of Mex

principal characteristics Of both. While
there Is no mountain range, in the geo.
logical sense OF the word there are in
Vulnerable mountains, which rise in the
most unexpected quarters, solitary in
their grandeur, and so irregular and
broken that the Indian legend Of Cen

where all the waste material left by the
Creator was dumped Is far from being
ridiculous when Illustrated by view
of the mountains themselves. And the
mountains command unbounded re-
spect in Guatemala, for no small pro-
portion of their number are volcanoes
Of the most eruptive and aggressive
kind, liable ut any moment to send out
a shower of stone or lava, and capable
of generating more earthquakes than
any other set of mountains on the plan
ct. The native-born Guatemalan does
not mind earthquakes much-he is too
we'll accustomed to them. He general
ly lives in a one-story house of flimsy
construction and the earthquake can do
no more than knock it down about his

gown, which is exclusively destined for
very slender young women, and Will be

The chief factor In crepon's general
favor Is the fact that 1t is available for
all sorts of uses. Early In this de.
scrlptlon came mention Of tallor-made
dress Of black crepon, closely followed
by fashionable instance of combining
a black crepOn skirt with fancy silk
or velvet bodice Then brown crepon
was sketched In q simple house dress,
and the final picture shows an extreme
ly dressy costume Of black crep0n.
With the usual full godet skirt there Is
a waist that has no seams In front. For
trimming there are only fur bands ex-
tending around the neck and outlining
the armhole, with like ornamentatlon
at waist and wrists. The upper fur
bands end in frllls Of heavy lace weight
ed with Jet, and Jet can replace all the
fur If 1t Is desired.
Never have there been before so

to be had for nothing, and now there is
offered fine strip Of steel, about as
thick and wide as whalebone, cased in
openwork tape, so that 1t can easily be
adjusted in place at the foot Of skirts
and the edge Of jackets and bodices. II

and then returning to their native
country, to spend their blood money
In the bazars of Madrid and Barcelona
and CoTdova. The greed Of gold burned
out Of their sordid hearts all considera-
lions Of humanity, and In wanton
cruelty they butchered the natives in
discriminatory until finally only u few
stragglers In the remote recesses Of
the forests remained of all the popu-
lation that filed the cities and cult
waited the fields. Central America has
never recovered, and may never recov-
er from that deadly blow. In u country
where tropical rains are succeeded by
tropical sunshine, where the winter
does not deserve the name, so mild is
the season, nature is bounteous, and
all sorts Of vegetation grow with a
rapidity and luXuriance unknown else
where. In many parts Of Guatemala,
when road is cut through jungle,
constant labor and watchfulness are
required to prevent its obllteration by
the encroaching verdure On either
hand. Roads, neglected for two weeks
can not be traced, so completely are
they overgrown by the trees and vines.
The abundance of nature In the fields
overpowers the industry Of man. A
farmer can cultivate only limited
area on account of the rapldlty with
which the native plants grow. Under
the chiefs who formerly ruled this
country, the roads were kept open by
gangs Of laborers employed by the
chieftain, and the farmers were COM

width of the goods makes the length Of

indulge in skirts that stand out more
than ever Cloth skirts are in favor for

compels him to renew eXertions in the

Guatemala has not developed for an
other reason than the earthquakes. 1t
is almost destitute Of ports, and equally
bare of navigable rivers. There are
many streams, but all so broken by
rapids, cascades and falls that they are
practically useless to the country, save
for purposes of irrigation They might
be employed for that, but as during
half the year rain falls every afternoon
as regularly as the afternoon comes,
irrigation is not so much needed as in
some other regions, where the skies are
not so bountiful. AS for the ports, the
two or three on the Pacific side are
hardly worth the name, being for the
most part open roadsteads, while the
solitary port town ON the Atlantic
slope is a miserable collection Of huts,
not deserving the name of town. With
only about 100 miles of railroad, with
no navigable rivers and no ports worthy
Of the name, considerable develop
ment could not soon be expected. But
more could have been done than has
been by different class of poulation,
for, besides their unconquerable repug-
nance to work, the native Guatemalans
are not in the least enterprising, nor do
they seem to understand or appreciate
the natural resources of their country.

black crepon, and Its fashionlng Is en-
tirely new-one of the prettiest novel
ties in the new tailor dresses. Its very
full seven-gored skirt has all Its seams
strapped with crossway bands Of the
goods, the waist being partly double
breasted, the deep collar opening over
n chemisette Of the goods, topped by n
high collar Of the same.
This same material IL used In skirts
that enter In much more dressy cos
tunes. Thus charming gown with
skirt Of deeply creased black crepon
had q somewhat low bodice Of salmon
pink satin overlaid with pleated black
chiffon. The sleeves were enormous
puffs to the elbows Of pink with bill
lows Of crepon over them. The neck
was finished with a little fold Of
salmon satin ribbon, which blended
with the flesh tint, and at the same
time furnished modest addition to
the cut-out. A big pink bow rested on
the top Of the sleeve on one side, and
q corresponding one, but not quite so
big, showed below the shoulder, In
front, at the other side. A little fold
of the pink ribbon was at the edge of
the round finish Of the bodice, bow
completing it at the back. Long black
gloves were worn and black chiffon
scarf. Such bodice could, Of course,
be worn with any dressy black skirt, or
with salmon-plnk satin to match, but
the rig seemed to be especially good
taste with the black crepon skirt.
A touch of pink is added to the dress
of the second picture In way to
greatly enhance its beauty. 1t appears

ruined by lack of attention during the
rainy season, the irrigating bitches

the temples were overgrown with
trees. For three centuries incentives
to industry were taken from the popu-

all memory Of their former greatness,

their ancient prosperity even by ardu-
Gus effort. 1t is probable that even
