ATHLETIC TEAM WON.
Defeated the Minneapolis Brewing
Company Nine at Lexington.

The st. Paul Athletic cub team played
the Minneapolis Brewing company nine. the
champion amateur organization of the Mill
City, at Lexington Park yesterday and de-
feated them with ease.
The Athletics outbatted and outfelded their
rivals, making two home runs, two three
baggers and four doubles, beside singles
galore. The Brewing company secured but
seven scattering hits off Swanson. and had
It not been for little widness and couple
OF costly errors the Minneapolis score would
have been close to the zero mark.
The game had some brilliant play, among
them being a beautiful one-handed catch of
a liner to third base by Marshall, VINO caught
the man at first, compelling double. Mitch
ell at short played a fine game, and pulled
down one or two liners that looked sure hits.
Clayton seems to have reganed his cid form,
and his throwing soon put a stop 10 base
stealing. after he secured three or sour scalps
at second. Martin played a great game at
first, and each of the first three tines 81
bat he made a hit. Harvey played a rapid
game in left and ate up three three-baggers
after hard runs.
Delaney at second looked after his end
and took good care Of Claytor's line throws.
The heavy batting of the Athletics was led
by Murphy, Martin, Harvey, Clayton and
Marshall, the two latter each having home
run. Jahnke carried off the honors IN the
coach lines. besides securing two hits. Rol-
ander, the ex-valey Lacquer, had nine strike
outs and seemed to have good speed and
curves, but the Athletic club had on their
batting clothes The score:

From the Philadelphia Press.
AT a recent luncheon given to Presi
OK mt and Mrs. Mckinley by q member
or the cabinet the table fairly bristled
with bayonets. In fact, nothing was
eaten that did not have in it a dash
or the war spirit-nothing except the
soup, and that was served extra hot.
Even the cakes served with the torpe-
uo-Snaped ices were made in the form
OF fortress.
a rather unique effect at an Astor
luncheon was bareback crackers sent
from camp by Col. John Jacob Astor.
The story that is told simply relates
that they were served. not that they
We're eaten.
Another hostess, however, improved
on the Astor idea by having hard tack
souvenirs with the names of the guests
engraved on them.
And still another woman went even
a step further than this by having
dainty cakes made in exact imitation
OF the bareback crackers and serving
them with ices. The imitation was so
accurate that the guests did not eat
them until one more daring or patriotic

On the cake stood a fac-simile of the

SAN FRANCISCO, July 17.-After
being watched for during the past ten
days, the steamer st, Paul arrived to-
night from ST. Michael's. bringing men
and treasure from the Klondike. It has
been learned on reliable. authority that
the Alaska Commercial company re-
ceived on the ST. Paul tonight twelve
boxes of gold, each Weighing $50
pounds. Conservative valuation of $15
an ounce. this aggregates $3,423, OO0
Adding this to the amount brought
down by the miners, which is placed at
over $3,OG0.O0O, the Klondike treasure
carried by the ST. Paul is not less than
$t,000.0U0 or $7.000,000
The largest amount brought out by q
single prospsctor is in the possession of
N. I. Pickett, who has $4,000, principal
ly in gold dust and nuggets.
The returning miners say that it is
idle for prospectors to go to the Klon-
dixie now expecting to locate claims,
as all the mining land of any value has
already been staked out.
Among the passe myers on the steamer
ST. Paul is Brig. Gen. George M. Ran

SAME OLD BOYS

on his toes and pressed a finger on
his other hand on his lips to enjoin
silence. The old gentleman under the
tree was puzzled for minute Then
he sprang from the hammock with
youthful agility, gave a sweep of his
arm that motioned his croney to the
alley behind the balm, and said "Blam-

NATIONAL l.. A. w. MEET.
The Officials VIII BE Chosen Within
the Next Few DAYS.

INDIANAPOLIS, Ind. July 17.-Chairman
FCltz, of the race committee, will make his
appointments for track officials at the national
meet this week. All of the positions will be
given to the men prominent in cycling circles
throughout the country, and non-residents of
Indianapolis.
The accommodations committee is now pre-
pairing to publish list of the hotels and
boarding houses with their location and rates
charged.
The National Track association team has
decided to send its crack pacemakers and sew
eral of its crack riders to the national meet.
This will add greatly to the interest of the
races, particularly in the pacing contests,
and from that team the two contesting in the
big middle-dstance event will probably be
chosen.
Herbert Foltz reported at the last meeting
Of the executive committee that the Newly
oval has more than come up to the expecta-
lions of the track company, and he considers
it one of the fastest bicycle tracks in the
world
The fact that the New England Passenger
association has granted one fare for the round
trip for the national meet Is being felt
throughout the New England states, and it
is believed that mere wheelmen will attend
the national meet next month from that sec
ton of the country than visited Philadelphia

NEW YORK, July 17.-Tod Sloan has re-

he will remain at Brighton until the end of
the meeting at the Springs, and do his share
of riding until his stable needs him. This

at work during the night.
Capt Capron with six men had gone
on ahead of us and had come across
the body of a dead Cuban. Ten or fif-

fired. This was the first shot from

comfortable jog was assumed, the party ar
