of the Game.

Grays, with Braun on the Rubber, Defeated
the Buffaloes at Rocky Polnt-Results of
Other Sunday Games-Notes.

Two thousand spectators witnessed the
exhibition game at Crescent Park yester-
day afternoon between the Pawtuckets
and the Hartford team OF the Atlantic
League.
There has been considerable controversy
anent the relative strength Of the two
leagues, but judging by the showing made
by the Hartfords yesterday irst-class
amateur team could walk away with
victory from them. The boys from the
Nutmeg capital were completely out
c1assed and there was no question regard
ing the outcome from the or,ning inning.
Much of the interest centered in the ap-
pearance of John l.. Sullivan as umpire.
The big fellow went in the diamond and
umpired far better than many of the um-
pires in regular service. He gave his de-
cisions promptly and there was not ques-
tion raised on any point upon which he
ruled.
Fry oficisted for Hartford, and but for
some ragged support in the opening inning
the game would have been far more inter-
e,ting. Three or four costly misplays at
that time, with hit by pitched ball, base
on balls and two doubles and single
sandwiched in at the proper time, gave
Pawtucket lead that could not be easily
overcome.
News took a liking to the curves OF the
Hartford twirler and laced out two pretty
two-baggers and single.
McCafferty received Perfect support,
Moss making great pickup and throw of
a slow hit by Berry. Coughlin and Weis-
becker both made nice catches. The

ERRORS IN LIVING.
Mau's Exccsslve Appetite and the Body'S
Capacity For Food.


Capacity For Food.
To the lay mind nothing seems to au-
CUR 80 strongly in favor Of robust health
as hearty appetite. Furthermore,
thero would seem TO be a strong con-
viction in the public mind, sanctified
by tradition from timo almost imme-
mortal, that the moro man eats the
better nc Is. The quantity of food that
many people naturally eat is very large
as compared with their actual physi-
illogical requirements. Add to this the
many tempting forms in which food IL
presented to the palate by our modern
culinsxy arts, the sharpening Of the ap-
petite by the anteprandial cocktail, the
stimulus afforded tho appetite by bot
tie Of good wine, and the result is often
the consumption of an amount of food
that simply overwhelms tho assimila-
tive organs. Such indulgence. if unre-
stricted and habitual, taxes both the as
similative and the excretory organs to
their highest capacity, especially when
coupled with sedentary life, and, more
over, it lends an additional impetus to
the evils springing from the use of i'm
proper quality of food.
The human celebrating and excretory
mechanism was evidently adjusted for
ordinary wear and tear to an average
limited period of about 20 years. Un-
der 40 per cent Of extra work we must
naturally expect impairment or break
down Of the mechanism much earlier.
It should therefore excite no special
surprise that so large proportion of our

ease, heart failure and allied diseases at
90 or 55 who should, and under prop
erly regulated lives and habits would,
have attained the natural age Of 70 or
over. Paradoxical though it may seem,
such people usually spring from excep-
tionally healthy stock and often point
with pride to the fact that their imme-
diate ancestors lived to advanced ages
of 80 years or more This paradox, how
ever, is more apparent than real, for in
vestigation will usually reveal the fact
that for the most part the parents in
such cases were people of more simple
habits, such as corresponded with New
England life 20 or 100 years ago.
The truth is that the well to tlo man
Of today lives in faster age than that
of his father and grandfather He meets
with greater opportunities and possi-
bilities and therefore greater stimulus
to all his energies He more easily ac-
quires pecuniary resources, and in
larger amounts, and therefore he pos
sesses greater luxuries Of domestic life.
With these come greater temptations to
excess. While he has often inherited a
splendid constitution from his ances-
tors, unlike them he has run his phys
ical mechanism at breakdown rate,
and it must of necessity more quickly

ANGER AND EGGS.

Result In Death.
Never eat eggs while you are an

my attention was first called to this
strange fact by the tragic and sudden
death of lady acquaintance in Boston
several years ago. accepted her hus-
bands invitation to dine with them.
Just as we were going in to dinner a
servant did something that caused the
lady to fly into terrible rage She had
been irritable from some minor COM
plaint for several days, and her hus-
band calIned her rufiled feelings suffi-
ciently for the dinner to be eaten in
good temper. I noticed that she ate an
unusually large amount of soft scram-
bled eggs. Fifteen minutes after we
left the dining room she was corpse.
She died in frightful commissions be-
fore the nearest doctor reached the
house. The doctor was unable to ascribe
the cause. A few months later / was
visiting brother in Connecticut, and
one Of his sons died under similar cir
cumstances. Before breakfast one morn
ing the boy, who was about 15 years
old, had fight with neighbor's boy.
Before his anger had subsidized my
nephew was called to breakfast. He ate
four soft boiled eggs. Had known as
much then as ! do now would have
prevented it. In less than a half hour
after breakfast the boy died with exact
ly the same symptoms that were present
when my friends wife died. This set
me to thinking about the matter.
It wasn't long after this before q
Beacon hill friend of mine expired sud-
denly after a meal. The doctors, as
usual, were divided in opinion on the
cause of death. Some of them contend
ed that 1t was heart failure, whatever
that is, and others are still holding out
that it was apoplexy. Inquiry by me
developed the fact that my friend was
very angry when he sat down at table
and that he ate Ave eggs. With these

The game was marked with brilliant
