NEARING THE END.
The Gilt Edges and Stocktons Both
Want To-day's Game.

If the rain doesn't pour down there'l
be lively time at Snowflake Park this
afternoon when the Gilt Edge and
Stockton baseball teams come together
in their final struggle for supremacy.
The game will practically decide which
of the leading teams in the California
League shall walk away with the pen
nant and incidentally the 5 per cent of
the gate receipts held out at each game
played, which has been set aside for
the winners
The Gilt Edges have played seven
games, Won five, and last two, and their
percentage is ia. The Stocktons have
played eight, Won six and lost two,
their percentage being 750.
Ii the Stockton men win to-day it will
be all off with the locals, but if the lat
ter WreSt a victory from the people of
the sloughS, and then beat the Olympics
one week from to-day-which is easier
talked about than done-the honor and
the shel1els will be theirs. Should the
locals win from Stockton, but meet de-
feat at the hands of the Olympic sracks,
there will be a tie between the leaders.
Manager Campbell of the Stockton ag
gregation has promised to bring down
500 rooters for his people, and also
states that Josh" Riley, the little giant
of the Reliance club, will lineup at
second base.
Chance, who recently signed with the
Gilt Edges, will not catch to-day, but
Captain Henesy has secured the services
OF Stanley, the lightning Reliance back
stop, and the game promises to be warm
from start to finish
The Jackson Squares will cross bats
with the Perkins Juniors at Twenty
eighth and @ streets this morning. They
will lineup as follows:
Perkins Juniors-Arthur, catcher;
Harlow, pitcher; Jones, short stop;
Hoffman, first base; Waite, second base;
Bowles, third base; Hoffman, right field;
B. Harlow, center field; marlborough,
left field.
Jackson SQuares-McKeon, catcher;

THEORIES OF OCEAN TIDES.
Prof. G. III. Darwin on the Moons
and Suns Action.

Professor G.. H. Darwin, in his fifth
lecture in the Lowell Institute course,
Thursday night, explained the causes Of
daily high and low tides. "Wnen the
moon is over any spot on the earth the
water is drawn up toward it by the
force it exerts, and at the lioint direct
ly opposite, on the other side OF the
earth, the water is also raised in the
form of a big wave" says Professor
Darwin. Between these points. on
either side of the earth's circumference,
the ocean is depressed, the moon thus
tending to form a spheroid of the wa
ters, and giving rise to two high and
two low tides in the course of one rev.
olution of the earth.
ITO understand the bimonthly spring
and neap tides we must take into ac-
count also the effect of the sun on the
oceans. The force exerted by the sun
is 26-59ths as powerful as that of the
moon, and when there is a full moon or
a new moon the force of such bodies is
acting together and gives rise to the
condition known as spring tides. But
when the moon is halfway between new
and full, waxing or waning, the force
of the sun is acting at right angles to
that of the moon. AS the sun eXertS
about half the power of the moon over
the tides, the difference between the ef-
feet of the two acting together and in
opposition is about as three to one, SO
that the tides arising from the conflict
of the force of sun and moon are only
one third as great as the spring tides.
These minor tides are called neap tides.
THE observed fact that high tides
do not occur when the moon is over
head, but several hours later, was ex-
planned as due mainly to the compara-
tive shallowness of the oceans and to
the different velocities of all points on
the earth's surface between the maxi
mum Of %, 900 miles a day at the eaua-
tor and zero at the poles. Boston

And all is his, one vast and bright de-

A hundred cities, forest, field and stream,
Wrapt in a flood OF light

The shining robe of his imperial dream
Even as he looks. behold, a shadow small
Creeps round his throne, and lengthens
steadily;
He frowns. and 10. the shadow darkens
all.
His sword is out. and swift his minions
flee.
But as they ride the shadows follow fast;
The realm of Noon is sundered and is past,
While evenings lordling marches forth
to war.
And like broken Lear
Upon his ready spear,
The great king sinks beneath his fallen
star C. G. B.
