with the game, from the lordly UNI
pire to the mascot who hasn't yet
reached his teens, and including the
barefooted, ragged urchin who gains
admission to the game by recovering
the ball that was batted over the fence
Our particular rooter exercised this
right, not bothering himself a bit
whether it was allowed or not.
The result of the game was in doubt,
and the interest was intense. The Hart
fords were in the field and the oppos-
ing nine were at the bat. A batter
made ''swing" at the ball as it came
like shot from the hand of Vickery,
winding into a graceful inshoot when it
reached the home plate. The bat
whistled through the air, but didn't
come within hailing distance of the
ball. Just then sparrow rose from
the turf and few toward the left field.
The death-like silence was broken by
the rooter shouting:
$50 for it, Pettit!"
Every eye was turned toward the
place from which the loud bass voice
of the rooter came, and everyone won
dered.
Bob didn't obey the command of the
rooter, and this made the rooter mad.
He began to abuse Petit, and for a
minute Bob's reputation as baseball
player suffered.
What did you want to have him go
for?" asked a person who was sitting
near the censorious critic.
'Why, the ball that was batted into
left field"
THE ball! Why, you blankety blanked
chump, that was q sparrow" replied
the other.
The rooter's roofing ceased.

There is nothing in sight that should
discourage the good Republican who
pins his faith in the improved condi-
tons of the country upon the wisdom
of Republican methods. Dun's review
shows that the July failures this
year aggregated S7,117,72T and in July
1893 they were over $6O,OOO,OOO. There
is nothing bad in that. The failures
this July just closed are smaller in
the aggregate than for any monOth
since Cleveland assumed control of the
government in the spring of 1898.
There is food for reflection in figures
and facts like these. The grand old
party holds up it's end Of the beam
and stands as the national pledge for

There is no doubt that the time for
high wheat in the United States has
come. Russia has added to the prob
abilities of this rise by withdrawing
her own wheat from the market for
the present. The outlook for a crop is
so poor in that country, AMI Russia is
no doubt looking ahead for what will
be required in case of war, that the
order goes out that no wheat is to be
exported until the present harvest is
determined. Uncle Sam has the mar

The beginning of the end has come
to that Grecian-Turko rupture. 1t
leaves Turkey infinitely stronger than
when the war opened, a war for which
the Powers alone are responsible.
Greece is left at the mercy of Turkey
for the future, the new boundaries es-
tablished by the ambassadors of the
Powers commanding all the positions
on the frontier. Turkey can now in
wade Greece at will and there is not
defence that Greece can interpose, all
her natural strongholds on the Thess-
allan line being in possession of the
enemy. Greece has been betrayed to
her death.

Mexico is coming down on her
knees very rapidly. The immense
drain that she is caused to bear ON
account of her ruinous exchange can
not long be borne. Mexico has con-
tinued to pay her interest to Europe
promptly in gold, and this is the rea-
son why the rate of exchange has not
been so heavy against her until now,
that the depreciation of silver during
the year from 6S to Al has started the
ball rolling down hill and there is no
knowing where it will stop. Mexico
will be forced to follow the example
of Japan and adopt the standard of
the commercial world. There is moth
ing else in sight, and the object lesson
can be read by this country.
