KEWEENAW CO.

The merchants OF Keweenaw feel some
what aggrieved on account of an article
in the News recently relative TO the visit
OF the food inspector Mr.. Franke, them.
spector when in the county, compliment
ed the dealers on the high standard OF
the goods they carried, there being but
one articlr-vinegar-i one stock in
spected, and two articles-vinegar and
Epps cocoa in another which were not
up TO standard. This being the inspec-
tors first visit TO Keweenaw, it il al
most surprising that the stocks were
found so nearly up 20 what the law re-
quires, and il il well known that no such
happy state OF affairs prevailed IN her
sister county of Houghton upon the first
visit OF the food inspector some two
years ago, that is, when Colonel Bennett
first visited Houghton county in the
capacity OF food inspector.

A Whale's .Iawhnnes.

The jawboncs of a whale are sometimes
20 feet in length, and the mouth, when
wide open, is 12 by 1S feet The throat,
however, is so small rs scarcely to admit
a hens egg. The whale gets his living by
straining the animalcule and small fish
out of the water he takes into his capa-
cious mouth. 1t must be slow work, but
then he has plenty of time and nothing
else to do, so no attends to his eating so
regularly that he often accumulates ton
Of oil In his bulky system.

The Players Who WIN Represent Wheel
ing--The stag Social.
Manager Mike Warner has signed
all his players for the game between
Wheeling and New York Elks, which
is to be played at the Island park
Wednesday, August 4th. 1t promises
to be an interesting contest, and will
doubtless attract a big crowd. The
names Of physicians, nurses and ambu-
lance corps will be announced later.
Manager Warner made ten-strike
when he secured Harry Wheat and
Harry Mcclure as coachers. They will
make things hum on the lines, provid-
ed they can overcome the temptation
to knock" when errors are made. Mr..
Mcclure returned yesterday from the
Eclipse fishing camp and purchased a
saw and file to get his voice in trim
for the game. The coachers will prob
ably be the only members OF the
Wheeling team in uniform.
The local team will be an all star
aggregation. Warner will play short
and captain. Jack Sheppard will come
from Pittsburg to play third la
Pirates. W. Hanlon, of GAINESVILLE,
will be placed in right field, where
there is little to do. Will White, of
Bellaire, will hold down second.
BILLY" will endeavor to disprove the
assertion that he is has BEEN" B.
d. j., better known as Money Bags"
McKeown, will show how millionaires
play first. McNichol, chip O. the old
block, will attend to the twirling, with
Sammy" Chambers, of Elm Grove, at
the receiving end. James Burnley, Of
Moundsville, will cover left field.
Thomas Jefferson Wolvington, the
Ritchietown crack, billiardist, bowler
and half-back, will gather in every
thing that happens to drop in centre
garden. He will be placed at the bot
tom Of the batting list because his hit
ting ability is an uncertain Quantity.
The rivalry between ex-Mayor Sea-
bright and Fatty" Afberts, for the
position of umpire Mas become so in
tense that it is<1likely a compromise
will be effeSSsd by which both will
oficiates rAlberts on balls and strikes,
because he has a fine eye, and Sea-
blight on the bases on account of his
'sprinting ability.
In the evening there will be a stag
social at Arion Hall, with an abundance
of refreshments, liquid and otherwise,
and the visiting Elks have promised
to furnish three hours entertainment.

BASE BALL BRIEFS.

George Moreland was in the city
yesterday representing the Pittsburg
club in the deal for third-baseman
Hoffmeister, of Springfield. Hoff-
meister returned to Pittsburg with him
last might. Moreland is an excellent
Judge of a ball player. When the In
terstate League was organized he Sc
cured the Steubenville franchise and
signed a team of untried men. Among
them were Ritchey, now playing short
for Cincinnati, Hannes Wagner, re-
Gently purchased from Patterson by
Louisville, and Al. Wagner, this year
in the Eastern League, and destined
next year to be in faster company.
Bullock. Wheeling's shortstop, played
second on Morelands team. Moreland
was after Hannes Wagner for Pitts
burg with a check for $4,000, but be-
fore he reached Patterson, Louisville
had purchased him for $1,000. The
price paid for Hoffmeister was $500
Springfield was anxious to keep
Hoffmeister, and the manager kept the
wires hot between this city and Spring
field Thursday evening.
Bill Taylor arrived home last night.
After leaving Toledo, Taylor showed
I'D in Youngstown, and the Youngs-
town manager wired Manager Herring
to asking for his release. Harrington
replied. naming a price which would be
accepted and has not yet received an
answer.
II was reported yesterday that the
grounds in Bridgeport will be in condi-
ton to play Sunday game with
Toledo.
Yesterdays game abounded in SEN
sational plays and there was also some
very loose fielding. The visitors play
ed a snappy game in spite of Wheel
ing's big lead
Hallowell or Coyle will probably
pitch this afternoon. Herbrand, who
held Mansfield down to one hit, will be
in the box for the visitors. 1t will be
a good game. and the team should be
literally patronized, as the club is
playing good ball at present.
Mansfield won because Wheeling
won. More tough luck. When, oh
when will Wheeling pull out Of the
eight hole?
It was a noble revenge which Toledo
took for that whitewash on Thursday.
Kelb appears to be in form now, and
he is one of the best in the league.

A SPLENDID VICTORY
Won by the wheeling Team Over the Can

Won by the wheeling Team Over the Can
nonsburg Bowlers.
1t was happy crowd of bowlers and
"rooters" who returned from Cannons-
burg. Pa, yesterday after having won
a splendid victory over the team rep
resenting that city. The match for
S1OO a side was decided in favor of the
home team. When Canonsburg was
defeated by more than 800 pins at
Mozart Park, the Canonsburg boys
promised to turn the tables on their
home alleys. The return game was
played Thursday night at Canonsburg,
and was witnessed by large crowd.
The Canonsburg alleys are about
five feet short of regulation length, and
there is not sufficient room to deliver
the ball. notwithstanding these dis
advantages the home team clearly out
played Canonsburg.
Wheeling put up 4 msrkable game
