Hamilton, of the Bostons, has the
batting record of the season up to date.
In recent game he made six safe hits
in six times at the bat. Two of the hits
were double baggers.
The reduction of the salary limit OF
the Western League to $500 month has
caused an instruction among the play

oils club has been unable to sign its men,
who are on strike.
Manager Watkins of the Pittsburg
club, will enforce the Brush rule to the
full letter Of the law, and has so in

will assure its success.
William A. Brady, the new owner of
the Rochester club, is up to date even if
a little bit theatrical. He has uni
formed his players with the national
colors. The stockings are red. white
and blue.
Friends of Sidney D.. Farrar, who
played first base for Philadelphia in the

of his daughter, Geraldine, who gives
promise OF becoming wonderful singer.

AMONG THE HORSEMEN.

John X. Gentry has to his credit the
fastest official quarter ever timed in race.
According to the official time of the race
in which he defeated Star Pointer at
Glens Falls, n. Y, in 1886, lie paced the
last quarter of the first heat in 2S3
seconds. He has also paced, on four diff
ferent occasions, officially timed, halves
in one minute or better, three Of them in
592 seconds, the other in minute.
The breeding OF horses in Russia from
the earliest ages to the present time has
been given great attention. All the
breeding is supervised by the imperial
agents. The Consular report on the SUBJ
ject says that there are many stations
where choice stations are kept, with
service free to all.
That worldwide known tfainer and
driver John Splan says most of the trou-
BILE in the trotting horse business comes
about from the slip-shod manner in
which it has been conducted. However,
l have great faith in it, and believe that
the whole thing will weather any storm
that comes up and that in the end every
one will have to acknowledge the new
rules grand 4uccess.

down they produce myriads of sparks.

about him the only sure way of help

FINALLY one of the big trip hammers
came down with great force. and as IL
did so one of the men sneaked up be-

KITE FLYING.
A Pleasant Summer Pastime That Has
Rendered Invaluable Ala
to Science.

One Of the most noticeable move
ments Of the present time in popular
science is kite-nying. while its practice
a a pastime is having a large increase.
Its interest to our reader, however. is
almost wholly in its scientific aspect.
says Appleton's Popular Science Month
ly.
To the question:: What is really the
use of all this practice with kites? Mr..
H. II. Clayton, superintendent at Blue
Hill observatory I'm the suburbs of Bos-
toni once replied nearly as follows:
ave are living in an atmosphere of
which we practically know very little.
Our position is like that of crabs at the
bottom of the sea. Ii is expected that
such knowledge will be gained in these
aerial explorations as will enable the
meteorologist to predict hot and cold
wave and the various kinds of storms
more accurately and much earlier than
has been done heretofore. The observa-
lions have already become serviceable
in this direction, while the knowledge
gained has modified opinions found in
the text books"
Truly there are mountain tops three.
four, and nearly six miles high, but
these are remote or inaccessib!e; be-
sides. the atmosphere enveloping them
is mainly of the same stratum which
rests upon the surface of the earth else
where, only a little rarefied, chilled and
broken in upon slightly in storms, when
the stratum is shallow, by the more
rapidly flowing stratum next above; sc
that usually what may be found On the
mountain peaks is merely the crest of
billow of the lower atmosphere.
