BASE BALL BOoMs.

The base ball season of 1896 is likely
to be the most successfuI in the history
Of the national game. The regular an
nual contest is now under way in the
National, the Western and the minor
leagues, and reports of attendance in
dicate greater enthusiasm over the
sport than at any time in ten years.
The interest in the game can never
die and it only fags when for a time
there is either 1ooseness in the con-
struction of the rules or laxness in their
enforcement.
This year the changes in rules have
been very slight, but they have
been Of exactly the right sort.
The umpire has been made complete
master of the field from the time ''play"
is called to the end of the contest, and
he Is instructed to keep the players
at their work even Ii he is forced to
put half of each team out of the game
and, If need be, off the grounds. Every
patron Of the game should greet this
new arrangement with applause, as
the key to the situation is now in the
hands of the umpire. . II he is a man
of decision Of character, quick, accu-
rate and fearless, he will do more to
popularize base ball than has been
done in decade. 1t is in his power
now to send rowdyism to the rear, and
make a ball game a contest between
eighteen gentlemen-a contest which
can be witnessed and enjoyed even by
ALL

Paul team had nothing 20 Go with the

Clement Howell was sprinting home the
other evening when he saw a young wo-
man in advance OF him putting in her
best laps for the same destination, says
the Detroit Free Press. He knew she had
run over to the drug store on the corner
and probably left the front door of the
house open as sort of protection And
she carried her pocketbook loosely in her
hand.
Clement decided to give her a lesson
She heard his steps, but did not recognize
his particular hoof-beat. and besides
wanted to get home before her husband
did, for she was happily married, as the
novels say. But when a hand suddenly
reached from behind, and seized her pock-
etbook, which she was easily persuaded
to give up, she smote the evening air
with screams yard and a half long.
Don't shootp she yelled take my
money, but spare, oh, spare my life."
Hush up" said the voice of her hus-
band; you'll have the police here
Sure enough one of the force grasped
the smart Clement by the collar, and
wrested the pocketbook from him.
II had my eye on you. young fellow,
and IN have you in the patrol wagon in
a jiffy."
"But it's a Joke. This lady is my wife"
protested Glenn.
"Tell that to the judge" said the COP
per, with sly wink. Then to the young
woman, who had stopped screaming:
Here's your pocketbook, miss, and you'll
be summoned as a witness"
"Oh, he is my husband; he only wanted
to frighten me-" she sobbed
A great deal OF explaining had to be
done before the policeman would REIN
quish his hold. Then Clement Howell told
his wife that she could see how easy IT
was for a robber TO snatch her purse.
when she was so careless as 10 carry It
IN her hand
II should have hated awfully to lose

present to me-"

band

BIG MAP OF THE sky IN PARIS.
Two Acre Diagram of the stars and
Planets Almost Completed.
From the New York ID

FROM the New YORK Journal.
The United States is the only civilized
country in the world which will not par
ticlpate In the construction of the great
map of the sky, which is now nearing
completion. No single country could
have alone attempted the gigantic task.
and, though so many countries have taken
part, fully nine years have elapsed since
the first work was done on the map, and
the astronomers have been working on
the photographs ever since.
Each country has had assigned to 1t one
section of the heavens, and these sections
have been divided among the principal
observatories of these countries. In this
manner all the work will be divided
among eighteen observatories and each
will make a map Of the section allotted to
it. These sections will consist of 5000
maps, so that the complete map will re-
quire $1,000 photographs. When all the
photographs have been taken they will
be forwarded to the Paris observatory,
under the direction of which the different
parts Will be put together.
Two acres of ground will be covered by
the completed map, but these two acres
must of necessity be subdivided in size
manageable to scientists. The location OF
30,000,000 stars win be shown upon the
map, and of these 100000 will be named
and indexed, so that the student who
wishes to know the location OF any named
star, or the name OF any located star,
has only to refer to the printed catalogue
to accomplish his object
Amy star i'm the universe up to the elev-
enth magnitude can, by this means. be as
easily located as any small island In the
Pacific is findable on any large map OF
the earth. AS the Photographic plate can
detect millions of stars which are not at
all visible 20 the naked eye, or even to
the most powerful telescopes, stars of the
thirteenth and fourteenth magnitude will
be shown upon the map. although no
printed catalogue will be kept of stars
above the eleventh magnitude.
The observatories which share the hon.
ors Of this great achievement are those at
Rome, Paris, Greenwich, Potsdam, Bor-
deaux, Toulouse, Cataline, oxford, Hels-
ingford, Algeria, San Fernando, Tacubaya,
Santiago (Chile), La Plata, Rio de janet
70. Cape of Good Hope Sydney and Mel
bourne. Each OF these observatories will
bear the cost of its own portion. and will
deliver IL at its own expense at the
grounds Of the Paris observatory.
It is expected that the photographs viii
be completed this fall and that the map
will be ready for inspection some time in
the spring. All of the universities will
have representatives at the formal COM
pietion of the novel map.

.gainst opponents in good condition. The
dav was perfect there was little or no

In the first half neither side scored.

princeton had to relinquish the ball on

"A ont of danger. The nearest Princeton
,op,e TO scoring in this half was when
sno got down to Harvard's 7-yard line,
snd was held there by a gallant rally on
Harvard's part.
The game was really decided about five
,oinutes after the opening of the second
half Harvard seemed so tagged out by
ber efforts Of the first half that she could
not nut her offensive plays through. With
tbe hall on Harvards 40-yard line, Brew
er. having just replaced Cabot, Princeton
directed play at his end. By an irresist-
5bIe rush the whole Princeton eleven
seemed to go between Swain and Brewer,
and down the field for touchdown 1t
was all done in a minute, and seemed to
naralyze the whole Harvard eleven. Baird
easily kicked the goal.
The outcome of the game was definitely
settled about ten minutes before the close.
Princeton, by her long punts, was grad
ually forcing Harvard back to her goal
line when Harvard secured the ball on her
ten-yard line. Brown was sent back to
kick. but Harvard's weakened tackles
could not hold and Church broke through
and blocked the ball 1t rooled back OF
the line and Reiter fell on it for the
second touchdown. Baird easily made the
goal.
Time was finally called with the ball in
Princeton's possession on Harvard
thirty-yard line.
