WHAT CONSTITUTES PLAY?
One Sample From the watersfde and
Another From a City
Street.
From the New York Sun.

FROM the New YORK sun
What constitutes play depends a good
Geal on how You look at it." said Mr..
Glimby. Down on the water front the
other day 1 saw some men throwing the
cover of a milk can back and forth. while
a number of other men. with nothing else
to do. looked on. Neither of the throwers
could quite reach the other. for the dis
lance was considerable and the cover was
Heavy; but they did as well as they could.
and the dusty old cover made a fine racket
when it came down and rolled away on
the paving stones. Between the two men
there was a small sheet of water, a pond
like puddle left after the recent rainfall.
One of the lookers-on said to the man
who happened to have the cover:
Throw 1t in the water
That was a happy thought that appealed
at orce to the man with the cover, and
skill. he landed the cover flat side down
in the middle of the puddle and splashed
up water enough to give the other man
at this. including. the man who was wet.
He could take a joke as we'll as anybody:
but he proposed, nevertheless. to impart
enough to reach the man hat had wet him,
if he could.
In a street a little way in from the
throwing barrels at one another. These
were not pork barrels, to be sure, or any
such heavy barrels as that. such as would
have smashed a boy If they had hit him
they were old. soft. discarded vegetable
barrels. headless and light and springy:
but they were barrels all the same, and
1t seemed odd to see boys playing with
any sort of barrels. They were good big
vigorous boys. Il or IA years old, and
each would pick up a barrel by the ends
and lift 1t up in the air and throw it at
another boy. Sometimes the barrel would
hit the mark. sometimes the boy would
escape IT; but in either case the barrel
would fall to the pavement. bounce, and
roll around until it was picked up and
thrown again: the boys and the barrels APP
peared to be on the jump all the time.
Throwing barrels at one another seemed
to- be a pretty robust form of play for
boys to indulge in. but the boys seemed to
be getting lots of fun out of it."

MURDERER MAY GO FREE.
All the Witnesses Against Him Are
Serving In the Army at Far
Avay Posts,

TOPEKA. Nov. 29.-(SpeciaI.) An extra
ordinary state Of affairs delays the hear
ing of Joseph Leach, held in the county
Jail here for the murder of Thomas Fem
nell, and the case annot be tried unless
the secretary of wal consents to issue
acquisitions for witnesses who are now
scattered with the United States army of
foreign invasion in the new domains OF
the republic.
Leach was a private in Battery B, Fourth
artillery, located at Fort Riley. kas. Fen
nell was a corporal In the same company.
On November &c, 1897. Leach. who was on
a drunk, assaulted Fennell with a ball bat,
inficting wounds that proved fatal. He
was arrested and brought to this city for
trial in the federal court, but in the mean
time war was declared and the soldiers at
Fort Riley were sent to the front. The
case was called at the last term of the
ance.
To-day Leach and his attorneys appeared
for trial. but a continuation was asked by
United States District Attorney Lambert
OIL the ground that he would have to have
time in which to get witnesses from Porto
Rico, Manila and Alabama. There are
three witnesses with the United States
army in Porto Rico. and one in Manila.
The only way by which the witnesses may
be brought here will be by acquisitions.
which must be obtained by the United
States attorney general from the secretary
of war. Therefore there is no telling when
the case will come to trial.

To Max Toothsome Hot Tamales.
From the Ladies' Home Journal,

To make hot tamales. scald a quart Of
good Southern white cornmeal. Do not
make 1t soft, but moist. Have ready your
corn husks and several husks torn into mar
row strips like ribbons. Have cooked thor
oughly ard chopped fine a chicken; add to
1t a Spanish pepper. chopped fine. and a
palatable seasoning Of salt. Take the corn
meal in your hand. sort of pat it down. put
into the corn husk sufficient to make a
roll six inches long down the center. Put
in a couple of tablespoonful of chopped
chicken, then roll the husks and the corn
meal over. making a complete roll with
corn husks over: tie them with the mar
row strips which you have prepared: Put
bottom of a kettle: add a sliced onion. three
or four cloves. two bay leaves. a teaspoon
of pepper; cover with cold water and bring
to a boil. Now put YOU tamales all over
the top; the bones will act as a sort of
rack: keeping them from being covered ny
three hours. and they will be ready 10
serve. The rolls are cut into halves. Dish
them neatly. so that the ends will be ex-
posed.

wreckage was a large quantity of furnish
ifgs upholstered in red plush.
There were also cases of lard directed
TO Portland.
Il was fifteen miles south of Eighhead.
There is nothing in the fact that wreck
age was found SO far south to contradict
the report thai it was at Highhead that
the Portland struck. for the current runs
south along the shore.
Il heard one theory advanced that the
Portland had foundered far to the north.
somewhere near Cape Anna. and that all
the wreckage and bodies had drifted across
the bay to Cape Cod"
In addition TO two bodies. DR.. Richard
son brought news that at Orleans the
body of a girl about 90 was found. She
had 4 gold watch and a ring marked -.
u. E. Her watch stopped at 9:17. There
are three bodies at Nauset, eight at Or
leans and twenty-eight at Truro and Well
fleet. The double wheel of the Portland
came ashore at Orleans.
The passing hours do not bring an end to
the reports of wrecks and loss of life UP
and down the New England coast. as the
outcome OF Sundays terrific storm. From
ape Cod the most terrible accounts of
rum and death are coming and of these
the loss of the steamer Portland. with all
on board. nearly 100 souls. overshadows all.
Inc graveyard Oh the coast, the treacher-
Gus bars and rips on the outside of Cane
Cod, has claimed victims without lumber.
Miles and miles of coast line are piled high
with wreckage, most of which is ground so
line by the waves that Identification of
helpless craft is impossible.
AS the fury of the wind was as great
as on the bleak a hills which make I'D
the cape, it will be many hours before al,
places are heard from. Telegraph wires are
down and railroads cannot break out the
snow drifts and this feature is distressing
as much suffering from cold and hunger
must ensue among the poorer people in the
nearby hamlets.
Tonight the only means of reaching Cane
Cod is by steamer across Massachusetts
bay, a disagreeable voyage. as the ..ea is
yet boisterous. Word from Province-own
tells of nearly thirty total wrecks with the
number of lives lost unknown.
Matters are improving slightly along
vineyard sound. so far as means of COM
munication are concerned. The best sum-
ming up of the disasters in that section is
made by Captain Hard, Jr., of the revenue
cutter Dexter. who has cruised along the
shore all day.
He says that in Vineyard haven hulIs are
piled upon the shore and those vessels

Dexter reports possible additions to the
