More than FIVE thousand people saw the
cherubs jump out OF the hole yesterday
IN which they have been placed for many
days. And when the second game was
called at the close of the sixth inning 10
allow the Paterson Club time to catch
Richmond had won both games easily.
and from seventh place they jumped into
fifth. going over both the Athletics and
the Crew OF the Mary Jane.
over FIVE thousand happy smiling base
ball cranks left tho grounds and Jake
Wells and his club Of ball tossers are the
idols of a large portion of Richmond's
population.
For three weeks the Cherubs have been
playing championship ball, and they have
AT last been rewarded for their labors by
getting up among the leaders with but a
few points between them and the fourth
club.
CHESBRO TWIRLED.
Schmidt and Chesbro both twirled nice

pitchers were very easy for the locals.
Wells excelled himself and went right in

The crowd began TO gather at o'clock
and people continued TO arrive until 4:3O
when the second game was advertised TO
begin. and by the time play was call
ed for the second game about $500 people
were present
OF the seven games played this week
the Cherubs won five. which is u remark

Private Letter from Washington
Contains Some Interest
ling Matters.

| A private letter, dated July 1st, from a
| United States Government official al
| Washington, regarding annexation has
] the following:
Japan has protested, and the ex-Queen
| is doing all in her power to enlist the
sympathy of the European governments
| in her behalf, but 1 have no idea that
either will interfere with President Nc
Kinley when he is ready to annex the
Islands.
But there are other and more import
ant matters to occupy the attention of
Congress at this time, and all matters in
connection with annexation will, by
agreement, be deferred until the next ses-
sion of Congress: Business depression
has become chronic throughout the Unit
ed States, and it devolves upon Congress
to devise some means of relief; the mem
bers have come to a sense of realiza-
ton of the situation and their duty in
the premises.
I'VE all feel that the Islands belong to
the United States, and that no other
power will presume to interfere with
what is generally conceived to be the
rights of the United States, but feeling
is growing among the members generally,
that if Hawaii be secured permanently
as coaIlng station, they would prefer
it that way, rather than assume too
much through fiat annexation. However,
Jndt may De, you may depend upon l
that no steps will be taken toward an
nexation at present, unless some rad
zeal move should be attempted by a for
eign power. We have our hands too full
of national affairs to reach out for ter
ritory (Which we feel may be had at any
time) while matters are in such a state of
unrest.
Il regret very much to say that Presi-
dent McKinley'S promises of prosperity
and Increased activity in the commercial
lines have not been fulfilled, so that there
may be a 'Wanamaker party inflicted
upon us, after ALL The various depart
ments in the District are in tumult
over the Presidents wanton violation of
the principles of the Civil-Service law. /
may say that it has extended even to the
Army and Navy, to which civilians have
been appointed to positions over men,
who, by right of the law, are entitled
So numerous have become these uneX-
pected appointments that the feeling to
repeal the law is rapidly growing, and l
would not be surprised if during the next
session of Congress the Civil-Service act
would be thing in history only.
1.-The Hawaiian Commissioners here
have been working hard for the consul
nation of the treaty. have met Mr..
Kinney on several occasions, and have
found him as thoroughly posted, appar-
entity in the affairs in Hawaii men
twice his age. He has been indefatiga-
BILE in his efforts in what we consider,
with him, a just cause, and L shall regret
extremely his sharing in defeat, even
though, you may be assured, 1T is but
temporary.

Indigestion
Loss of Strenuth
And Appetite.

The testimony of Mr.. r.
Dennis, Adelaide. South Aus
tralia, who was cured by Ayers
Sarsaparilla, is like unto that of
many thousands of others. He
writes:
1T is with very much pleasure
that L testify to the great benefit l
received from using your wonderful
blood-purifier. l was a sufferer for
years from indigestion, loss of
strength and appetite, and constipa-
ton. My whole system seemed to
be thoroughly out of order A friend
finally told me to take Ayers Sarsa-
parilla. l followed his advice, though
feeling discouraged at the fruitless
results of other treatment, and 1 am
thankful to state that few bottles
completely cured me-
The medicine that has cured
others will cure you.

TIMING BIG PROJECTllES,
How Their Initial Velocity Is CnICu-
lated in Test


7" the layman one of the interesting
features in Il big gun test is the meth
Cd by which the initial velocity Of the
projeCtiles is calculated When he
hears that the modern high-pcwer
guns often cXpel n shot at an initial
velocity Of 1000 feet a second, a rate
that if sustained would mean mile IN
three seconds. he realizes the difficulty
of calculating the speed. An ordnance
officer must have accurate knowledge
of til" velocity of a projeCtile that he
may predict its range and penetration
and determine the accuracy of the gun.
1t Is Il comparatively easy matter
however, with the new Instruments 70
calculate accurately the initial vcloC-
ity of proiectilo, and any one who
is fortunate enough TO visit Sandy
Hook when big guns are being tested
may see how it Is done.
Two open frames are set up 100 feet
apart in front of the gun. Wires are
stretched back and forth across these
frames, making Il screen through which
the shot must pass. The wires in each
screen form n complete electric circuit
which includes also an electric battery
and an clCctro-magnet. The proiectiIe
after leaving the gun, flies through the
wire in the first screen, intcrrupting the
circuit ana releasing the armature Of
the magnet. In space Of time SO small
as to be hardly conceivable the pro-
jeCtilo has covered the distance be
tween the two frames and pierced the
wire in the second, interrupting its
electric current and releasing the arma-
ture Of Its magnet rs in the first case
The interval between the drop Of these
two armatures represents the time
spent by the projectilo in travelling 100
feet. This time is indicated by the
chrOnograph in the laboratory near by.
Wires run from each screen TO the lab
oratory, which Is fitted up with bat
teries and SWitchboardS. The armature
of the first electrO-magnet IS an iron
rod about three feet long, which IS
suspended vertically This rod falls
when the first screen is pierced The
armature Of the second electromagnetic
Is placed little below the first, and
when It Is released 1t acts as a knife
and, striking the side OF the falling
rod, makes a slight mark. The dis
tance Of this cot or mark from the
end of the rod indicates the distance
through which the rod has dropped
while the projcctlle is passing from
one screen to another. This forms the
unit for the calculation of the prniec-
tiles velocity in feet per second. New
explosives and high-power guns have
Increased the initial velocity Of projec-
tiles wonderfully in the last few years
Projectiles may be expelled now with
Il force that will make them effective
at a range far beyond ordinary eye
