He got through the game with whole
skin, and was congratulating himself
on being alive when four of the society
men who compose the Cleveland club
and who had it In for him" proceeded
to have 1t out with him. He had had
enough during the game and the idea
of the turning worm came like a god
send into his mind When the Hon,
Mr.. McAleer went from words to blows
and pasted him one for luck" he imi-
tated the worm and turned. He oaus-
ed the arrest of Messrs. Tebeau, Nc
Kean, Burkett and McAleer. Police
Justice Thompson held that the bril-
liant epigrams which had been ut
tered were "vile epithets;" that
in uttering' them the four or
naments of distinguished profess
sion had been guilty Of Language incit-
ing to riot" and of a breach of the
peace" and that Mr.. McAleer had COM
lillLtGQ IGdl ASSAULT dIlu pottSiJ.
Therefore he fined Mr.. Tebeau $780,
Messrs. Mexican and McAleer $75 each,
and Mr.. Burkett $50.
This action seems to indicate that the
umpire is human being and WITHIN
the pale of law. But the thousands
who have spent sunny afternoons in
execrating him and demanding his in
slant and horrible death will be greatly
surprised to find that he has any hui
man or legal status. And they will not
enjoy baseball if they cannot continue
to execrate him and to demand his
hearts blood What will baseball be
If the umpire must be treated as a man
and brother? A great deal more than
half the fun of it has consisted in Civ
ing him rats and other things. The
baseball managers will do well not to
have another event like that at Louis
vile. They should pick out umpires
who will not complain even If they are
obliged to become martyrs to the noble
game. The people must have fun, and
there is no better fun than giving an
umpire to understand that he is no
good, and should be ready when the
demand comes to get off the earth.

Wochenschrift.
An attempt Is to be made, under the
direction of the British Royal Society.
to ascertain the actual thickness of O.
coral reef. An expedition has started
from Sydney, in the man-of-war PEN
guin, to make a deep boring at Funafu-
ii, one of the Ellice Islands. The idea
was suggested five or six years ago by
Prof. Sollas of Dublin, and after dis
cussions at meetings of the British as
ISOLATION was brought before the gov
eminent grant committee of the Royal
Society last year, by whom it was re-
ferred to the council of that society.
This body made application to the Ad-
miralty, who permitted the Penguin,
now engaged in surveying In those
seas, to convey the members of the ex-
petition and their apparatus from sgd
ney, and to assist them during the
progress of the work. The government
OF New South Wales has lent to the ex-
petition all the plant necessary for
boring, and their own skilled workmen.
A sum of $4,000 has been furnished by
the Royal Society from the government
grant and other sources. Prof. Sollas,
with the other members of the expedi-
ton Is now on his way to Funafuti.
1t is intended to make a boring into the
atoll to depth of not less than 1000
feet, and to collect all the information
possible about the growth and history
Of a coral reef. The examination is ex-
pected to throw much light, upon the
controversy, which has now been
waged for some time, as to whether
Darwin was right or wrong in attrib-
uting atolls and barrier reefs to the
subsistence Of an area on which coral
was growing.

The qlietness of water in a storage
reservoir is far more destructive to bac-
terra than the most violent agitation,
according to a Royal Institute lecture
by Professor q. Frankland. The mi
crobes sent into the Niagara at Buffalo
suffer little from the turbulent passage
over the cataract, but soon almost en-
tirely disappear in Lake Ontario. The
storage Of water Of the Thames and
Lea by London water companies for
thirteen to fifteen days reduces the
number Of microbes to one-fifth Of the
original amount.

The attention Of the entire county
is directed to ST. Louis this week
where the Republican National Con-
vention was called to order yesterday
at noon by,Chairman Tom Carter, of
the National Committee. G. w. Fair
banks, of Indiana, was selected as

was most happy one, as he made a
very able and suggestive speech.
After brief session the convention
adjourned to 0 O clock this morning.
Senator Thurston, of Nebraska, the
brilliant orator, is to be permanent
chairman. There is no doubt Of Nc
Kinley's nomination for president on
the first ballot, and latest advices as
to the nomination of vice president
point to the selection of Morton.

The Dispatch of last week jumps
on the secretary of the Alliance for
his neglect to furnish it with copy of
proceedings after being ordered to do
so by the Alliance, The fault lies
with the writer as he promised the
secretary to send proof slips to all the
county papers, and owing to moving
and other matters we forgot our
promise until too late to reach our
nelshbots. Tbs secretary would
have done SO but for the confidence
placed in us. We will try not TO
have a like thing happen again. The
Dispatch commends the Farmers
Alliance as a non-partisan organize
ton, which is good news. Now we

ciples of the Alliance and the plat
form of the peoples party and If

good, why are not the beliefs of the

The Dispatch in speaking of the
payments upon seed grain notes
makes a very unfavorable showing
for the people of Smith county or as
he claims, their county commissioners.
Our county attorney informs us that
the farmers of the eastern portion of
this county have not paid up 80 well
as have those of the western, owing
to an almost total failure of crops in
the eastern part. This condition ex-
lists nearly all over Smith county.
This may perhaps partly explain the
condition. Then again the Dispatch
man made q little mistake of 5000 in
the amount paid in Smith county.
He states that less than $500 had been
paid, while the records show that
about $500 is paid. But a little mis-
take like this don't worry the Dis
patch, Again, the officers of this
county have granted some farmers
time until they can sell their cattle,
now what's wrong if Smith county
grants all of her citizens the same
privilege? Or why should responsible
farmers be compelled to pay just
now, when in all probability the rise
in price on what little corn they have
will be far more than the interest they
are paying on the seed gram notes
Why not give the poor fellows all the
advantage to get as much as possible
out of their fourteen cent corn? The
commissioners of Smith county have
never put one cent of additional cost
upon the makers of these notes
neither has that county lost any OF
its collections by thus leniency. The
object of the counties buying seed
gram was to extend helping hand
to the farmers. Now who has helped
them most the republican officers Of
this county or the populists of Smith
county? The Dispatch has failed tc
show that Smith county has lost g
cent. However the Dispatch mar
lived IN that county a number Of
years, and knows the character of the
people. Possibly they may be sci
of dead beats. How is it Brother
Dispatch.
