Ex-Champion Pugilist Jim Corbett
claims he gets $500 for every game of
baseball he plays, which only shows
that he has lost none Of his attractive
ness. His position is first base. He is
said to be fine fielder and base rum
ner, but is awkward at the bat, al
though last Suday he got four
hits out of six times up.

Unless the yellow fever scare has
been subdued by the end of the month
the itinerary of the proposed trip of the
Baltimore and All-American baseball
teams will have to undergo a slight
change. As has been mentioned in the
Light arrangements have been made
for atour of these two teams through
the south en- route to California. They
are scheduled to play in different
Southern league cities, which include
Mobile and New Orleans, and If old
Yellow Jack continues his dastardly
work these teams will have to take a
different route. This can be done as
easy as not by coming to Texas by way
of Little Rock, which would allay all
uneasiness as to unnecessary delay on
the trip. 1t is not at all improbable
that the teams will abandon their tour
of Texas for the Lone Star state offers
no less than six stopping places,
where the teams could put in several
days with good results.

placed by The r0oters upon the newest
CoIonels," says a Louisville writer.
1.-THE trio, Outfielder Nance, Second
Baseman Smith and Pitcher Waddell,
strike us as being very much all right.
Of course, Nance is the premier ar
ticle. The stocky yOungster looks and
handles himself like good ball play
er, and is a delight to the eye in the
field. He is a timely hitter and an aw-
full hard one, too, and one of the great
est throwers ever seen here. His
fielding is tip-top and shusa short duck
like strides of his show him to he a
real sprinttr. Els energy AMI the en-
thusiasm with which he works are in
refreshing contrast ~ that OF his pre-
decessor, Tom McCreery. Last SaT-
day being an &c day, the Colcnels who

Champions here for the afternoon ana
a good crowd journeyed out to the
park. Louie Knau was fast around
short and raped out homer that
went a mile over the far left field
fence. The little fellow is jewel in the
rough and will soon be another of Gin
cinnatfs promotions to the major
ranks. Knau. when Nance came to
the bat the first time warned Gray
to keep sharp lookout as the Kid was
liable to swing hot one down and
carry off his arm or leg. Hardly were
the words out of Knau's mouth than
Nance shot one past third that only
hit the ground once before it struck
the fence. Gray threw UP both hands
and lodged it as it went whizzing by.

THE JAPANESE AND SILVER.

one OF the points most relied upon by
tbo Hon. Francis G.. Newlands. sole
representative in the Fily-fourih Con-
srcss from tho state OF Nevada in his
arguments for the free coinage OF SILVER
v,as the advantages which silver stand
ard counirles-notably Japan-had over
the United States in tho cleapness OF
their productions. We could never har-
monte the contentious Of the free silver
champions that 10 was good for the work
ing people TO have wages paid ia silver
ON a silver basis with the incontestabie
fact that in countries where silver is tho
standard, the cheapness Of production is
due 10 the low wages, which, being paid
i'm silver. were much less than even the
same nominal amount would be in gold
standard country.
But now the japanese argument IS re-
moved Japan has either adopted, or is
about TO adopt. the gold STANDARD though
silver already coined is admitted al the
ratio of about 80 to /. while its free
coinage viii in a short time De altogether
stopped. The effect Of this is being al-
ready felt in the price OF silver, for it
was reported from New York on Monday
that a fan I'm silver at London 2s rs pence
and a sympathetic reaction here TO 65
cents was one OF the features Of the day..
This renewed weakness was the outcome
of causes previously existing, such as %
decreased demand from the continent
and the prospective change in the Japa-
nese standing.
When the japanese have completed their
financial change. We will await with in
terest the arguments which the free sill
verites will draw from the situation.
Perhaps they will retreat TO China.
