Table. Scraps Make EGGS.

There is no feed for hens that is bet
ter than table scraps of every kind.
Pieces of bread, scraps of meat, parings
of vegetables, and all such bits as are
usually wasted, if fed to hens will be
returned in the shape ofeggs. We have
found from experience that the scraps
from family of six will furnish feed
for IL hens, keeping them in good con-
dition the year through. This means
that the scraps from the table Of such
q family are worth $50 dozen Of eggs.
The 10 hens were kept in yard Is feet

Philibert Delorme. His plans, however
exist, and M. Normand proposes orr ginal
specifications. This will cost many mil
lion francs, but it is possible that the gov
eminent may undertake it in view of the
necessity it will be under of lodging in a
lyle, becoming their rank, the sovereigns
who are expected here in 1900 during the
exhibition
At the last Exposition France was prac-
tically boycotted by the European sover-
eigns, who wanted to disown the repub-
lie. Now, the republic has lived down
their sneers, and they are all anxious to
come, especially the Emperor William.
AS guests of the nation these visiting soy
ereigns might be given the Elysee for a
lodging, as was the case during the exhi-
bition Of 1867
This would necessitate the transfer of
the Presidential household and offices to
some other locality, and it has been sug-
gested that the reconstructed Tuileries
would be the most fitting habitation.
The idea of Felix Faure lodging in the
palace occupied by Napoleon 1. has led
some discontinued socialistic spirits to
cry out "Caesarism, % and hint at coup

now. Napoleon himself would find such

not a conspirator, but an architect, and is
seeking to restore not the empire, but

MAINE LEAGUE DISRANDs.
Formal Vote to That Effect Taken Last
Evening.

The final goodbye to base ball was said in
Portland last night for this seaso at least
and probably for very long time to come
A M aeting of the league was held last even
ing the ca stern clubs being communicated
with by telephone and it was voted that
the.league disband as it seemed useless to
try to continue ball playing in this state
any longer. The clubs were badly handi-
capped at the opening of the season of
course by the bad weather, but since there
has been change for the better in this re-
spect the attendance has not been anywhere
near what it ought to have been to meet the
bills of the clubs.
If the p atronage had been at all encour-
aging the past two weeks even with the
bad handicap of the rainy weather an effort
would probaly have been made to continue.
The Portland club will be paid this morning
what is due them and then will be free to
seek employment elsewhere. 1t should be
added that the disbandment of the Rock
land and Augusta clubs had very little in
f1uence on the decision as the end would
probably have come last night any way
The principal trouble was lack of patronage.
1t was evident to club owners that the
people of the state did. not want base ball
enough to support it and so they quit like
sensible men. President Woodbury. of the
league who is also owner of the Portland
club said last night that he had endeavored
to give the people base ball club that
would be redit to the city. That he had done
so he thought was generally admitted, but
assthere: was, no disposition on the part of
the people of Portland to support a team he
did..not see it in his way to continue longer.
The members of the Portlands are warm
In their praise of Mr. Woodbury. and the

have played ball for 10 year, said one of
the team last night, 'and this is the first

1t will be a pleasure for the people of
Portland to know that Catcher Nichols has
received very advantageous offer from the
New Bedford club which he will proba bly,
accept. If New Bedford gets Nichols the
team will get a catcher who has not an
equal in the New England league today.
The Willimantic boy is. destined for much
faster company than the New England
league. Other members of the Portland
team have received offers and several of
them will be located in few days.

Two From Philadelphia and Baltimore
Loses-Other Games.
Inspired by their victory of the fore
noon the Lewiston ball team swooped
down upon the unoffending Portlands
yesterday afternoon at the Deering
grounds and left very little of them.
The Lewistons deserve all the credit of
their ''swan song" victory, for they
played gilt edged ball and fairly out
classed the team which Capt. Beasie Nc
Guirk commands.
There has been no such dash put into a
ball game as the Lewistons displayed
here yesterday and as 1 say they deserve
credit for the victory. The injury to
Nichols at Lewiston kept him out of the
game and it was necessary to make
changes in the team which of course in
a great measure, accounts for the wide
difference in the score, though in the
writer's opinion itawas impossible to
beat the kind of ball the visitors put up.
Mahoney was put in to catch in place of
Nichols, and Engel started to pitch.
MC0 ttlfk WAS dU urSG DUU SOOu ylolu6u W
Houle, while Miller went to left field.
After awhile it was evident that Engel
was not able to win his game, Miller was
put in, but this did not prove a winning
combination and Nichols was caused to
put on a uniform and go in to catch
while Mahoney tried his luck in the box.
The big collegian was more successful,
but he was called upon after the game
was lost.
For the first few innings the game was
nip and tuck, but in the fourth the visit
ors began to find Engel and from that
on it was all up with the home team.
The batting of Mahoney was the one re-
deeming feature of the work of the locals.
Out of four times at the bat he made a
home run, a three base hit and two base
hit Not bad for a hot day. Conroy
pitched a splendid game for Lewiston and
was puzzle from start to finish. De-
laney's work at short was as good as has
been seen here this season. Mr.. Hassett
officiated as umpire in a satisfactory
manner. Pulsifer lead the Lewis ton team
in batting and did good work in the field
The attendance was about 1900.

At the same time it made known that
the horse show and the agricultural show
will also be held in the same building.
The latter took place there this year. and
the managers are vely much dissatisfied
The horse show people are Disguised and
threaten to go on strike and give up their
show rather than take it to such an out
of-the-way place, for it must be remem-
bered that this Machinery Hall is about
three miles from the center of the city
ana not easily reached without taking one
or two lines of cars.
WILL AFFECT THE ATTENDANCE.
During the exhibition Of 1889, when all
the other attractions were grouped around
the Eiffel Tower or the Champ dc Mas,
it was not felt to be much out of place,
but to hold the next two salons there will
insure great falling off in the attend
ance. However, the government has de-
cided and the artists will have to stand it.
Only, the government might have made
known it's intentions sooner instead of
springlng bhoIn as surprise on the COM
mittee and M. Picard.
1t seems that the plans were all decided
upon three or four years ago, and yet the
governments allowed the committee to
waste valuable time in considering other
considerable alterations in Machinery
Hall to accommodate the salons, The
paintings will be hung in the gallery of
the first floor, which will be widened and
divided up into rooms by transverse par
titions, SO as to give more wall space.
One-half Of the rooms will be allotted to
the Society of French Artists Champs
Elysees,) and the other half to its rival,
the National Society Of Fine Arts
(Champs de Mars), who will thus be
lodged under the same roof.
# this arrangement should tend to their
ultimate reunion, it will prove to be for
tunate, after all. The works of sculpture
will occupy the ground floor, which will
be given up to them after the close of the
horse show.
DISAPPOINTS THE DIRECTORS.
1t had been intended by the directors of
the exhibition to turn this Machinery
Hall into grand "sa1le de fetes,' where
all the great reunions could be held. In
1889 this sale de fetes was located in the
Palais l'Industrie and there were given
the grand balls offered by the govern
ment, the musical competitions, the great
banquet given to the mayors of all the
communes in France, and finally the dis
tribution of prizes.
Inc QlroCUOTS Wuuucu W uldkG a peFI1d-
nent thing Of this hall, but with the sa-
Ions there until the summer of 1899 there
would not be time enough to fix it up
properly The government provokingly
replied that they might do without as
allie de fetes altogether, SO the commits
sioner has reluctantly compromised on a
temporary structure.
The project Of having the salons in the
square by the Louvre, opposite the Tuile-
riae Gardens alfhOuoh if was pot realized
attention e this cart Of the oty
in connection with the exhibition, and
led Charles Normand, president of the
Paris Monumental Society, to propose the
rebuilding Of the Palace Of the Tuileries,
which was burned down by the Com
mune.

crime de Medicis in 1854, was never COM
