The Ball Game.

Marshall, Mankato, Tracy, Springfield,
Sleepy Eye and other neighboring points
and were genuine base ball sports, all of

The game itself was not very interest

scared the moment they entered the field
for it is said that they did not play the
game that they usually do. Mankato

fly to third, the second on grounder to
short stop and the third famed the air.
Thus the first goose.eSg was recorded.
In the second inning Mankato also
failed to score and for time it looked
as if the game might be somewhat enter

concerned. Safe hits, two baegers and
home runs were numerous and errors on
the part of the tielders so thick, that one

SET FIRE TO A BEAR.

Correspondence Philadelphia Press
Tom Clark, a Well-knOWn Northern
Pennsylvania hunter, tells the follow
ing experience that befell him last week
when hunting near WilliamSport: my
horse was we'll loaded with flour, ba-
con, and other stuff for my hunting
cabin, and | had my rifle lying across
the flour sack in front of me- Out Of
the brush into our path walked great,
big bear
my horse gave a snort and wheeled
and tried to throw me into the brush
as he departed from the trail. I had no
revolver, and my rife was travelling
down the mountain.
''My knowledge of bears was limited,
and that particular time 1 was not anx-
ious for any new acquisition in that
line. The bear seemed to regard me
with a friendly eye, for he boldly ad-
vanced, while [ made for a tree. The
bear wanted to keep me company for

about small enough for him to climb,

high as he could reach. I was in a
bad fix, and no way to help myself.

seemed to grin.
Then another idea occurred to me.
l had a fresh box Of matches, and if
I could set fire to the oil that I had
poured over the bears head the battle
was won. 1 made several attemps to
drop burning matches on the oily head
OF the bear, but the lucifers either went
out or missed the mark.
Il had no paper, but I managed to
tear a piece of lining out of my vest,
and, getting limb almost three feet
long, fastened the rag to it, set fire to
the rag, and with more satisfaction
than I ever did anything else lowered
the burning rag at the end of the stick,
until within about three feet Of the
bears oil-soaked head, and let it drop
''The oil instantly took fire. The ami
nal was surprised beyond the limit Of
any bears imagination. One howl Of

no relief, when, with a terrific howl

Substitutes for tea have been found at

places. Thus, in Tasmania and the Falkland

been used to make '.tea' and from this fact
have received the name of s'tea trees" The
The leaves are too aromatic to produce a
really satisfactory infusion. The ''tea tree
of the Falkland islands has less aromatic
leaves, which therefore give a more palatable
beverage. The leaves of another variety were
used for similar purpose by the crews of
Capt. Cooks ships, who found this 'tea'

DEMOCRATS HAVE LOST HEAVILY

WHILE POPS HAVE GAINED.
DECENTRALIZATION IN THE LATE
ELECTION SHOWN TN FIVE DEM
OCRATIC STATES.
COSTLY LESSON FOR THE PART,
Case of Bunco, In which the Gram
ger Acted as the Con
Man.

WASHINGTON, Nov. 29-It is an old
aoage that he who would sup with the
devil must have long spoon. The re-
turns recently completed by the an
nouncement of the official vote in some
closely disputed congressional districts
show how much the Democratic party
has lost in congress by it's partner
ship with Populists, and how little it
has gained. There were 219 Democrats
In the house of representatives of the
Flfty-third congress; there are 104 Dem
ocrats in the F1fty-fourth congress.
The number Of Democratic rep
resentatives elected to the FIT
ty-fifth congress is 1874, a. gain
of 30 over the election of 1894 and a.
loss Of 80 compared with the results of
the congressional election of 1892 While
the Democratic representation has fall
en- In the house IS below the Fifty
third congress and 102 below the Demo-
cratic representation in the house of
the Fifty-second congress and 20 below
the Democratic membership of the
house in the Fifty-first congress, the
Populists have been valiantIy march
Ing on, gaining a larger representation
each year.
The Populist or Farmers Alliance
party was started in 1889. In the cleo
ton next succeeding, that of 1890, 8
Farmers Alliance men, Of them from
Kansas, were chosen, and in the Fifty
third congress there were 10. Bereft Of
Democratic support, the PopulistS were
able in the election of 1894 to choose
members only; but this year, at the
expense of the Democracy and of ap-
palling losses in the former Democratic
strOngholdS Of the North and East, IS
PopuliStS have been chosen, exclusive
Of a number of quasi-Democrats who
have been credited to the Democracy on
the party column but are, in fact, Pop
ulists In the number of there are to
be included the one representative of
Idaho, one of the representatives from
Washington, and the representative
from Wyoming, bringing up, actually,
the number of Populists to q, against
131 Democrats. Comparing the con-
gress roster Of the Fifty-fifth congress
with that of the record of Democratic
returns four years ago, it Is seen that
in Alabama the Democrats have sus-
tanned a loss Of 8 members, one-third
of the delegation; in California, 2, one
half; in Illinois, of the IL districts
carried in 1892; like number in In
diana; of the 10 in Kentucky; of the
in Massachusetts,; of the in Michi-
gan Is of the 20 in New York, or three
fifths of the delegation; Of the in
North Carolina; 5 of the IL, or more
than one-half, in Ohio, and of the 10
in Pennsylvania.
In the following states the results of
the recent election have been even
more demoralizing to Democratic pros
poets than elsewhere, for in each OF the
five the Democrats are left without q
solitary representative:
