Here is one on Freedman from Ar
thur Irwin: "One of Freedman's draw
backs was that he was always discov-
ering and signing phenoms, recon-
mended by friends. One of these phe-
noms was q German from Newark
named Otto. 1 inquired among the
Newark players if they had ever heard
of Otto, and they pleaded not guilty.
But Freedman had him on a contract,
at a salary of $1,000.
"Otto failed to turn up at the Polo
grounds for practice, and Freedman
sent me to his home in Newark. There
/ found that Otto had been locked up
i'm an insane asylum that morning for
throwing rocks through windows, and
hitting a child with a section of a
brick. He imagined he was pitching
for the Giants. His family told me
that he had been pitching for an anna
teur team, that he was stuck on being
a pitcher, and had shown symptoms Of
a few cogs shy in his wheel gearing
He was placed In Bloomingdale and
pronounced insane by the physicians.

Informed Andy that Otto might make

The Chinese may be very shrewd
people and adopts at doing up and
buncoing the average "Melican man"
when it comes to three-card monte or
poker, but they are not in it with the
East Tennessee moultaineer from up
in the land of "Houks and pensions"
says the Chattanooga Times.
Several days ago Mr.. n. Goodman, the
hide and leather dealer, purchased
large quantity of ginseng from Oneida,
Tenn, which place is in the mountains
above Hartman. Mr.. Goodman paid
good stiff price for the drug, which
cures all the ills that Celestial flesh is
heir to, and brought the same to his
store in this city.
For dried ginseng Mr.. Goodman
thought this stuff was unusually heavy,
but paid no more attention to it until
he went to empty it from one box to
another. AS he did so he discovered
quite large amount of bird shot in
the bottom of the box. He could not
account for the presence of the shot,
and began examining the ginseng, with
the. result that he found the greater
number of roots stuffed with shot
Ginseng is purchased from the 'sang
digger" by the pound, and the roots
were cut into when green and stuffed
full of shot. A further examination re-
vealed the fact that there was large
number of bogus roots in the ginseng,
which Mr.. Goodman's employees spent
some time in sorting out.
This is a new way of dosing China
men with American lead. The Celes-
tails were filed with American lead dur
ing the California and Colorado riots
and during the Japanese war, but this
is the first case on record where an
attempt was made to fill them with
American lead through and in their
favorite drug.

"0LD IR0NSIDES"
At Anchor Lies in the Harbor
Of Boston Town.
Made the Passage Safely from Kittsry
Though Twas Nasty Night.
saIuied at Every summer Resent Already Has
Crowds d Visitors.

Boston, Mass, Sept. s1.-The old frig-
ate Constitution. which left Portsmouth
navy yard yesterday morning, arrived
of the Charlestown navy yard a few
minutes before o'clock this morning
The passage was made in much
quicker time than expected as the navy
yard officials did not expect the old
vessel before this afternoon or evening.
The tug Leyden towed the Constitu-
ton. Commander Very had charge Of
the frigate and there were 30 men on
board in charge of Boatswain Haley.&
The old ship was taken directly to the
yard, where Commander Very reported
the arrival of the Constitution to Com
mander Howison. She was tied up to
Shears wharf where she will remain
until the ceremonies on Oct. q. when
the centennial of the vessel will be duly
celebrated. In the meantime she will,
be fitted up for the occasion.
The arrival Of the old craft was ac-
knowledged by many of the steamers
and other vessels in the harbor.
The journey from Portsmouth to Bos-
ton was exciting but ended without any
mishap. When the old vessel was well
out in the open sea it became evident
that she wasrin for nsty night. The
rain continued to fall and the breeze
to freshen.s
The Constitution began to roll, and,
as she leaned to starboard and then to
port, her timbers gave forth strange
sounds, and the wooden roofs over her
deck creaked and groaned and shivered
until officers and crew began to wonder
what was going to happen. There was
some apprehension lest the roof should
be carried away bodily.
When Cape Ann lights were reached,
at Gas o'clock last night, it was deemed
advisable to lay to. There was q heavy
of the northwest.
Commander Very and Boatswain
Haley and Mate Benson, the only
officers on board, stuck to their stations
on deck. although all were drenched by
the rain and pierced to the marrow by
the wind. And all the while, during
the weary hours of the night, the Con-
stitution was groaning and behaving
like raw recruit who was facing the
enemy for the first time. 1t was not
pleasant night.
In the early hours this morning, how
ever, the wind abated. The tug was
signalled to get under way about
O'Clock and Boston light was sighted
before 6 o'clock.
From this point to the dock in the
navy yard, all was plain sailing, except
for the fact that after entering the
harbor it was necessary to cut the tow
line and let it go adrift.
At every summer resort on the coast
between this city and Portsmouth, the
coming of the Constitution was awaited
and an abundant store of fireworks was
on hand with which to give her a well
come.
There were many visitors to the
CharlestOwn navy yard during the
morning to see the vessel.

BOWDOIN FOOT BALL.
Season Will Open Oct. GOOD Series o
Games Already Arranged.

Brunswick, Sept. 2l.-(Special Foot
ball practice at Bowdoin is now well I'M
der way. Manager Stephen L. Young has
secured the services of competent
coach, Mir. Warren of Harvard, who will
remain with the team during the entire
season. There are several prominent
candidates for this years Varsity among
the members of the freshmen class but
it is as yet far too early in the season
to predict with any degree of certainty
just what the make UP of the varsity will
be.
1t is probable that in point of weight
BCwdoin will maintain one of the lightest
elevens in her history, yet every effort
will be put forth by Mr.. Warren to make
up for this deficiency with vigor and ac-
tlvity. Monday, for the first time this
fall two clevens lined up, and the prac-
tice was hot and exciting.
The foot ball season Will open at Bruins
wick Oct. p when the Bates college team
will be the opposing eleven. For the first
time in many years Bowdoin will play
the Harvard Varsity, the game occurring
at Cambridge on the 9th of October The

THE SEALING CORRESPONDENCE
Recently Made Public in London. Now Given
Out at Washington.

Washington, Sept. 2O.-The state de-
partment. today, made public the CORE
spondence in the Behring sea negotia-
tons which were set free recently in
London. The new matter rs comprised in
two letters. July % and % last, from Lord
Salisbury and Ambassador Hay respect
lively. In Lord Salisburys note is the
definition from the British standpoint of
the exact scope of the conference, in this
language:
II have to state that Her Majesty
government is willing to agree to meet
ing of experts nominated by Great
Britain and Canada and by the United
States. in October next, when the further
Investigations to be made on the islands
during the present season will have been
completed. The object of the meeting
would be to arrive. If possible. at the cor
rect conclusions respecting the numbers,
quenting the Pribyloff islands at the pres
ent time. as compared with the several
seasons previous and subsequent to the
Paris award. 1t seems to Her Majesty's
government that Washington would be
the. most suitable place for such a
meeting
Ambassador Hay. in his reply, which is
very short and is mainly repetition of
Lord Salisbury's language, calls attena
ton to one important point that may
have been overlooked by the British side
or else ignored purposely, namely, that
the conference is to be international in
one sense and is not to be confined en-
tirely to representatives of the United
States and Great Britain. On this point
his letter. which closes the correspond
ence up to this time, says:
1T may not be out of place for me to
recall to your lordship that. as l have al
ready had occasion to mention, the Pres
ident expects the governments of Russia
and Japan, powers interested in the pres
ervatiOn of the seal herds of Behring sea,
to be represented at the conference"
