served as unconscious models to the
busy artists, who turned the toys off SO
rapidly. / strolled over the way to

lessly bending over man who was busy
at something among them. The man
turned out to be one of those of whom

painting picture of colored sand upon

piece of white paper. stood two lamps,
and on this he drew his picture with
colored sands taken from half q dozen
different bags and into which he would
dip his hand now and again, letting the

go at will, sketching the outline Of a
fish or man or anything else, and then
he would color the sketch, sometimes

INTERsCHOLAsTIC GAMES.
Business and Central Teams Play
Pretty Game.

The pre.tiest that has taken place in the
inter-High School championship series was
played yesterday at National Park by the
Central and Business teams. The game
was of the see-saw variety. and the root
ers back Of each school took advantage Of
every opportunity to wake up the people
residing within a radius of several miles
of the base ball park. The game was
brought to a close in the eighth inning with
the score 10 to In the Centrals favor.
The Business team started off well. and in
the third inning secured lead, but the
Centrals began their fine work at that
time and pulled the game ou. of the fire
in fine shape. The game was interesting
frcm the excellent Individual playing that
was done. Shuster short stop of the Gen.

The Pittsburg Chronicle-Telegraph's base
ball extra of last evening says: A love feast
among Senators Wagner, Robb and McKin-
ley started at the entrance of the grand
stand directly after yesterdays game. 1t
was still in progress at the MOnongahela
House reading room at noon. The fruits of
victory were so rare and sweet that the
participants were imbibing every drop. Col.
Mckinley is attorney. When Cousin
Bill was only congressman the colonel
had to plead at the bar, but since he is in
the White House all the colonel has to do
is travel with a ball club and murder time.
The Senators success yesterday was one
of those "oasiSes," as Jake Beckley would
say. Col. Wagner did have one kick to
tally. 1t was against local scorers. He
thought Charley Abbey should have been
given a base hit on his slow one to first
base, which was chalked down as a sixth
columner to Dick Padden. In addition he
figured 1t out that Gene Demont and Char
ley Reilly were error makers in the sixth
inning.

had a dead-arm third baseman. His name
was Farrell. Washington had a pitcher
named Kiien, who wanted to get away.
Washington gave this man Killen, who
wanted to get away, to Pittsburg for the
dead-arm third basernan and s, 500. A year
later Washington sold this dead-arm man
to New York for $500. Two years later
Washington gave one, Joyce, to New York
for the dead-arm man and 5000. Result
to Washington club $11 500 in cash and the
dead-arm man. and he threw out six Orioles
