Louisville, KY, July 21.-Good pitching
ham and German opposed each other in the
first contest. Only two hits were made off
Cunningham by the Senators up 20 the
fifth inning. In the eighth and ninth,
however, hits were punched, but it was
too late TO win. AT first it seemed as If
the Senator's would win the second con-
est with ease. Bowling, Louisville's kid
pitcher, was sent to the box. He pitched
three innings, and it was during these that
tie Senator's scored their runs Fraser
replaced him, and was practically invinci-
bic But two hits were made Off his de-
livery in the remaining six innings. Nc
James was Knocked out of the box IN the
second game.
In the first four innings of the initial
game Washington was retired in one, two,
three order, and in the fifth and sixth
innings nothing was accomplished. Then
the Senators found Cunninghams delivery.
Mcguire followed DeMontreville's out with
hit to center and Tucker did likewise.
Wagner fumbled the ball and Tucker ad-
vanced to second, while Mcclure started
home. He was nabbed at the plate
Reilly hit to left, scoring Tucker, and
went to second on the throwin o'Brien
hit to center, scoring him.
, TT, Co
man hit safely, but only one run resulted.
A base on balls, a sacrifice and a hit
by Stafford enabled Louisville to score
q run in the first. In the fifth, hits
were punched. Ciingman singled to left,
and Cunningham sacrificed, but Clarke
forced Clingman at third McCreery then
singled past second, Wagner hit TO left
for two bases and Stafford followed with
triple to the same point, three runs
resulting punched hits brought in an:
other run in the seventh.
McJames was put in to pitch the second
game and was knocked out in the third
| inning Clarke knocked a home run in
the first, and in the second two singles
and some clever base running by Werden,
who stole second and third, added another
run. After Clarke had fouled out in the
third McCrerry lit to center and took sec
ond on wild th1ow-ir. Wagner Knocked
a triple to right center and McCreery
scored, Wagner being caught at the plate
] trying TO stretch the hit into home run.
| Stafford hit for two bases to left and Wer-
den hit for -four bases, the ball rolling be-
| hind the score board in LEFT center Wilson
! singled to right and Dolan followed with
double to left. Billy Clingman also made
a double, and when the cannonade ceased
| five runners had scored. Fraser, who re-
| placed Dowling, retired the side on a
! grounder from short to first. Swain took
| McJames' place in the box after the third
and did well. With the exception OF Wag-
neT's two-hagger and Clingman's single HI

GRAND LODGE In SESSION
The District Of Columbia Odd Fell
lows in COny0catiOn.
Grand Master Jones Read His AM
nual Election OF Officers
Sessions Continue Today.

The grand lodge of the L o. 0. F. Of
the District Of Columbia convened in annual
session last evening at Odd Fellows Hall.
There was large attendance of repre-
sentdtives fIom the twenty y-four subordinate
lodges in the Jurisdiction, and also of the
past grand officers, who are entitled to a
vote in the election for officers OF the
grand lodge.
The most important matters demanding
the consideration of the convention was
the reading of the annual report of Grand
Master Thorsas ]. Jones, and the election
OF officers TO serve during the ensuing
year. The masters report, while it showed
that the grand lodge was in a better con-
dition financially than before, did not
shew any maternal change ia the member
ship.
The election for officers resulted as fol-
lows: G. NJ, John i. Brown. Eastern
Lodge; D, G.. NJ, William W MILAN, Har-
mony Lodge; G. W, John B. Ward, and G.
S., William r. Hunt, Central Lodge; G.. T.,
] A. p. Espey, Eastern Lodge: representa-
tive, Fred A Stiers, Beacon Lodge; trustee.
D. W Keck, Columbia Lodge.
Before the convention adjourns the. newly
chosen grand master Will appoint a grand
marshal, grand conductor, grand herald,
and grand chaplain.
In all probability the convention win
continue in session until Friday evening,
as it is not thought that the matters which
will come ap for consideration can be dis
posed OF before that time. If, however, all
business is disposed OF at tonight's meet
ing the newly elected officers will be In

THE TRAINED NURSE.
A Vocation Attracting Large Numbers Of
Gentle Women.
indispensable Service She Renders
Qualities That Distinguish Her at
Her Best-EarIy Examples.

Those in a position to judge say that
more gentlewomen have entered the
schools of nursing during the last tve
or six years than ever before, and that
the education, refinement and delicate
discrimination of lady are coming TO
be more and more demanded as 1ndlS-
pensable in that vocation. The trained
nurse is now accepted as so natural and
essential a complement of life, that 1t
is a matter of wonder how the world
ever got along without her.
There is still a ghost of prejudice
against the trained nurse, a remnant of
the old feeling that paid services can
not be substituted for family care and
solicitude. but these sentiments are ex-
ceptional. She has now appropriated
new field. namely, the ground former
lv occupied by the companion. "A
trained nurse can read to me and post
me up on current events, ana aoVlse
as to the shape of my bonnet and bod
ice Just as well as mere companion,
testifies a woman able to indulge IN
luxuries. ''She looks after my healtn
and bodily comforts as well, and out
ranks the companion in every way
What do I think the best equipment
for a. trained nurse?" repeated the phy-
sician. when asked to talk on the SUD-
iect. 81 should say that tact is, far
and away, the essential requisite. "A
nurse may thoroughly understand her
materia medica and every other text
book, she may be light of foot, deft OF
touch. and soft of voice, and possess
many other delightful qualities, but II
she has not tact she will never be
success Here is an Instance: L sent
Young woman to an uptown house TO
nurse a case where an operation had to
be performed. She was intelligent. OF
pleasing appearance, and, l thought,
Just the right person in the right place.
She rendered acceptable service during
the operation and bade fair to do well.
The next day I had to dismiss her. and
why? Beause when all the danger
was over. she failed to appreciate the
anxiety of the patients family. She
went out to get a breath of fresh air,
remained nearly three hours, and when
I made my afternoon visit I found the
patients mother almost in Mysteries
from nervousness, and the feeling that
there as no one to take any response
bility off of her shoulders. There was
no reason for the nervousness; every
thing was going on right. The nurse
knew this, but if she had had tact she
would not have left the premises at all
on the day after the operation. There
has never been a training school yet
that could teach that sort of sense.
How many kinds of nurses have We?
All sorts and conditions. There are
thousands in the profession now. The
term of training has been purposely
heightened from two years to three, in
order to prevent what may be termed
an overcrowding of the ranks. Some
fear that the supply of nurses will ex-
ceed the demand, if the training schools
keep on turning out such large classes.
In my Judgment, the ranks of really
first-class nurses are never likely to be
