The Sussex A. c.. defeated the Young
Quicksteps in a rafting game played on
the Washington street grounds yesterday.
The heat seemed to lend strength to the
players of both teams and the game was
sharp and snappy throughout. The Sus-
sexes took the lead in the second inning
by scoring four runs after being held off
in the initial round. The Young Quick
steps scored one in the third, failed in
the fourth and scored one in each of the
following innings, except the eighth, when
they got two. In the eighth the Sussexes
led by one run and as the ninth gave
each team a run the Sussexes lead won
the game The winners We're stronger at
the bat than their opponents and that
was responsible for the win. Davidson
covered the initial bag in championship
fashion. He had ten chances, some Of
them long ones, and they were all grasp
ed. He also got three hits and a run
L.. Somers did similar work for the Quick
steps, the only difference being that he
got two hits. Scores

1t is similar to the directory that was

Account for the Author,

From the Pittsburg Chronicle-Telegraph.
Loan me $25" said a resident Of
Sharpsburg to John Thomas, of Mill
vale. Mr.. Thomas resided at Sharps-
pufg about ten years ago, and on this
occasion had driven to Sharpsburg to
see several old acquaintance.
Certainly" said Mr.. Thomas; 'I
can let you have a little more if you
need it." and he turned to another
companion and winked his right eye.
They were having lunch in the dining
room Of a Sharpsburg hotel Mr..
Thomas inquired if any person In the
crowd had Farmers and Mechanics
bank blank check in his possession.
and, being answered in the affirmative,
asked for it. He took pen and ink and
wrote out check for $25 and told his
friend to go and get it cashed. The
Farmers and Mechanics bank is but
a minutes walk from where they were
and or went the man. Mr. Thomas
remarked that he had just PLAYED a
clever trick on his friend, who ought
to know that he had not lived in
Sharpsburg for more than ten years
and had no bank account there.
While they were laughing and iok-
ing ABOUT the check the man to whom
1t was made out entered holding the
money in his hand. Neither Thomas
nor his friends could understand where
the money came from, but no one said
a word. Finally the man with the
money said: When I presented Ms
check at the bank they told me thai
they thought Thomas had forgotten hc
had bank account there. that not a
cent had been drawn for over ten
years."
Thomas said nothing at the time. but
little later he walked to the bank
and asked how much money he had to
his credit, and was astonished to hear
that ne mad neat sum of money laid
away. He had forgotten all about II.

HEATING WITH WATER.
Scientific Explanation of Fact
Well Known to Nurses.

"A bottle of hot water will retain it's
heat longer than a hot flatiron or a
hot brick, as every nurse knows. The
reason is that. weight for weight and
at the same temperature, the water
contains more heat than either the
brick or the iron.
Experiments have shown that the
same quantity of heat which will raise
the temperature of given weight of
water, say one pound, one degree, and
which the water will give off in cool
ing, will raise the temperature of a
pound of iron nine degrees. A bottle of
boiling hCt water contains as much
heat, ard will do as much In the way
of warming, as red hot mass of iron
Of the same weight.
This difference between water and
iron as regards capacity for heat is not
an exceptional case. A like difference
exists between other substances, no
two substances, whether solid, liquid
or gaseous, being affected by the ap-
plicatlOn of heat, when equal weights
are taken, to the same extent. To put
this fP'H''''i into everyday phraseOlogy,
some s. 2ceS are harder to heat
than 9th, 'ss substances They are able
to receive ard to stow away within
themselves greater quantity of heat
without showing it's effects so visibly
by rise of temperature as do other
substances which are more sensitive in
this respect.
Water is the hardest of all substances
to heat, with the single exception of
hydrogen gas. The easiest two are
mercury and lead, which stand in this
respect on nearly the same footing.
The same quantity of heat which will
raise an ounce of water from the freeZ-
Ing to the boiling point will raise the
temperature Of about 80 ounces of mer-
curry or lead, 9 ounces Of iron, II ounces
OF copper, l6 ounces of silver through
the same number of degrees, and the
heat which is put into these substances
to raise them to this or to any other
temperature will be thrown off by them
as they cool.
The great capacity Of water for heat
the fact that a given quantity of it
will hold much larger amount Of
heat at a conveniently low temperature
than will any other substance-rendei A
it peculiarly suitable for the purpose
of heating buildings, not to speak CT
the ease with which it can be con-
Quoted to the different parts of build
Ing. On a far grander scale we may
see this same peculiarly Of water uti-
lied by nature for tempering climate.
The waters of the ocean absorb during
the summer a vast quantity of, solar
heat, without, however, showing any
great rise of temperature, and during
the winter this heat is given out slow

HENLEY TEAM VICTORIOUS
MINNEAP0LIS FOOTBALL MEN
OUTPLAYED THE ST. PAUL A. C.
Neither Team Played a Fast Game,
but the Visitors Evidently
Had More Practice.

Several hundred people witnessed a
very ragged football game at LeXing
ton park yesterday afternoon between
the st. Paul Athletic club team and
the Henleys, of Minneapolis, the latter
winning in thirty minute halves by d
score of II to 3. Neither team did any
brilliant playing, and the tactics en-
piOyed showed that both aggregations
lacked both a knowledge of the game
and the proper coaching. For the Ath-
Ietic team there was some excuse, as
it was the first game this team has
played, and, with some good hard
practice work after yesterdays eXpe-
rience, the team could undoubtedly put
up a strong game of football, as it has
the weight and speed in its members
that only needs to be better trained
to the requirements necessary. At
times the Henley team played a fair
sort Of football, showing that the team
has practiced together, but their vic
tory was due more to the Athletic
teams weakness rather than Henley's
strength. Potts and Michaels did most
of the ground gaining for the Mime
apoIis players, while Foot punted well
for the Athletic team and Juhre made
several excellent tackles
Foot kicked off for the Athletics in
the first half, sending the ball well
into Henley territory, and the Ath-
letic ends were down the field after
Potts, who made the catch, before he
could get back more than half a dozen
yards. From Henley's thirty five-yard
line the Minneapolis players forced the
ball up the field by line-bucking tao
ties until within five yards Of touch
down, when the ball was fumbled and
fell into Smiths arms. The Ath-
letic player had a clear field and
sprinted for a touchdown back of the
Henley goal Foot failed to kick the
ball between the posts. and the Ath-
letic team was credited with five
points.
Henley kicked off on the next play,
Potts sending the BAH half way to
their opponents goal. On a tumble,
Henley got the ball near the center
