WHAT THEY SAY IN BOSTON.

Praise for the Senator'S from the

Jim Muruane in Boston Globe
Did vou ever see a full blown smile
gather for business on a winning ball
pla yer's face?
II not, you have missed a great treat.
A few minutes after the sun had passed
down behind the old machine shops to
the west of the south end ball ground
yesterday afternoon, Capt. William
"scrappy' Joyce led his band Of cele-
brated Sena tors from the diamond to his
coach in waiting, with victory over the
Boston team to smile over. Those who
gathered along the line of march were
willing to testify that Sir Billy's smile
was more than the regulation, and looked
very much like big CASH in ripe water
melon.
Tom Brown was close to the captain. ttft
smiled in more becoming manner, showing
his California breeding, but you can well
believe that Sir Thomas was happy.
AS the new aspiranus for pennant honors
passed out after throwing down "our own
tue crowd bummed:
"You did them nice,
Scrappy Joyce, Scrappy Joyce"
1t was Stivetts against Maui, or main
strength against clever head work, and
the latter won in walk.
The Senators hit and ran together, land
showed excellent team training. Maui
pitched with his usual GOODNESS, working
every man. The visitors outfield is fast,
and Mcclure threw to bases in way to
make the throwing of the Boston catchers
look Toledo.
Jake Morse In Boston Herald-The o'e;
reason-inability to bat the ball at the right
time-was what lost the game for the Bos-
tons yesterday. AL. Maui, with bis slows
and his curves, his hypnotic smile and his
seemingly easy way of putting tue balls
over, all but toyed with the home team.
Long, Duffy and Bannon were especially
easy for him. RI
Stivetts was clearly outmatched by the
Washington man. The Washingtons struck
the happy combination of base hits and
bases on balls that resulted id the accumula-
ton of runs.
1t was all over in the fifth inning, when
two bases on balls. two singles and triple
netted the Washingtons four runs, and had
it not been for some elegant fielding on the
part of the home club there is no telling
how much greater the destruction would
have been.
The Bostons outbatted the visitors on
singles, but made cnly one extra bagger,
while the Washingtons made four triples,
and every one counted in the scoring. Billy
Joyce hit in fine style, making single and
n trinle and pettinp his ha go twice cp balls
Selbach also hit finely, as did Cartwright,
and the three batsmen just about won the
game for their side.

PLAYED CHESS FOR KISSES.
Why German Socialist Editor Has
Lost His Usefulness.


Berlin, June 22.-Herr LutgeDan. who

ieging that LutgeuaD had been alone in a
private room attached to a restaurant
owned by man Damed Osthues, u Socialist
friend OF Lutgenan's, with Frau Ostbues
and that the Two were playing chess for
kisses.
The AnZeiger asserts that the servaut
IN the restaurant bored holes in the door
or the private room through which they
observed the alleged exchanges of kisses.
The Arbeiter Zeitung took up the cudgels
In benalf or LutgenaD and called the editor

We are perfectly willing
to have the other clothiers
say we have ruined the cloth
ing business. We feel We
only met the popular demand.
A living profit was all we
wanted. There is no reason
why a merchant should grow
wealthy quickly in selling to
the public. 1t indicates that
his prices were high-that
profits were large-in short,
that you were overcharged.
We have been making a small

FAILURE OF A LOAN.


The New York Evening Post says
that the practical failure OF the New
York City loan of $4,000 and the
similar failure of the S1,5O0,0 600 loan in
Brooklyn must be aseribed TO the free
silver scare, for although the bonds
are specifically payable in gold, peo-
pie who have money are very loath
to part with it in squally times.
This may be the case, but one would
naturally think that people who have
money would be anxious to get it in
vested in a gold security Of the best
kind, as New York City bonds are, if
they are really appre3lensive of free
silver These bonds are made payable
in gold and the failure of the loan can
not be attributed to the silver scare. :"
The Post proceeds to say that the
comptroller says that if he cannot sell
the bonds, the city improvements must
stop. Most likely thar is so, and no
doubt this will be used as an argu-
ment with the voters of New York
against silver. If there are any finan-
cial or business ills in all the country
today, no matter of how long stand
ing, that cannot be traced directly to
the declaration of the Chicago plat
form in favor of free coinage, they
will yet be attributed to it. The fail
ure of a gold bond loan is owing TO the
''free silver scarew Next.

used by him in his lecture tours, the judge
cut off the name and signed them in i'm
itation of Williams writing: Very truly
yours, Tom l.. Williams"
These he sent to men in different parts
of the Alabama district, being careful TO
leave out the most influential friends OF
Williams. In a short time the scheme
began to work. Williams received letters
asking for one of his big pictures. These
he answered grac!ously saying he had
none. Then would come back replies in
the most indignant style telling him that
they had seen them and If he wanted to
lie about it he could do without their sup
port. These letters Mr.. Williams referred
to his friend Judge Culberson, who ad-
v!sed him 10 go home and straighten it
out. This the perplexed member did, OBJ
tanning a ten days leave of absence.
When he returned he said to the judge:
Il found them there, framed and hung
up. They look like me and there was my
signature. Finally 1 noticed the scar on
the face and that saved me. 1 got it fixed
up, but | had to go to every county in
the district
Finally it leaked out who had played
the joke and a compact was made that
Williams should never again mention the
lawsuit and Judge Culberson should play
no more jokes.
