JAY HUGHES TO PITCH.
Gilt Edges Will Meet San Fran
ciscos Tomorrow.

Tomorrow will be gala day for the
Sacramento baseball cranks, inasmuch
as Our Jay" Hughes, the pride of
Sacramento's baseball public, will do
the pitching for the Gilts Jay, as
every one interested in baseball knows,
has done creditable and at times
phenomenal pitching for the Baltimore
team in the National League during the
season just ended, and, as Manager
Hanlon of the Orioles said, was his
most effective pitcher
Jimmie finished seventh among the
league pitchers, with a percentage of
.661, having pitched 33 games, won -
and lost IL, a record which has never
been beaten by any pitcher just break
ing into the league. His good all
around work caused him to be played
IN the outfield a good number of games.
Friends of Hughes decided to present
him with a token of their esteem upon
his arrival from the East, and accord
ingly took up subscription and
bought a handsome gold watch and
chain, which, together with a diamond
studded locket given by Frank Ruh-
staller, will be presented to him Sun
day afternoon. Judge c. N. Post will
make the presentation.
The San Francisco team, with Iberg
in the box, will be pitted against the
Gilts, and the game ought to be a fast
one. Hammond, the plucky little
catcher, who is a general favorite here,
will be at the receiving end for the
visitors. The remainder of the team
will flock out as usual
There has been another change in
the makeup of the Gilts, and this
Sunday will find Timothy %. H) Shan

Prussian Rule in Schleswig.

A correspondent sends me a report of
a recent case in Schleswig in which
three Danish seminarists, on a walking
tour, were arrested and taken before a
magistrate at Roding for the heinous
crimes of, first, singing the Norwegian
national song. and, secondly, wearing
caps with 'cockades in the Danish col
ors. The penalty for the first offense
was fine of 10 marks each, and for
the second the caps were confiscated.
I do not suppose that any of my read
ers who find themselves in that part
of the world are likely to while away
their time by singing Norwegian songs
or to adorn their headgear with the
Danish colors; but the incident is new
ertheless interesting as an example of

To-day this same blatant dema
gogue, who profoundly hates every
thing South of Mason & Dixon's

to propose that the North return to
the South the old rags which a few
years ago afforded him an apportu-

He now proposes as an act of con-
Citation that these flags be given t"

evidently of the opinion that the
Southern people need to be coaxed
into this war by such contemplate
methods. We agree with the Daily
States that "our Southern SOL
diers want no pay for their sac1i-
fees and blood either in battle
flag or money. They will do their
whole duty to their country from
pure sentiments of patriotism; and
if the Foraker breed of men prevails
to any wide extent in the North let
them scramble for contracts and
the South will fight and win this
war herself; and in doing SO, if she
be permitted to control, there will
be no such disgraceful mismanage-
ment as has characterized the cam
paign SO far.
*.Put stopper on your vile mouth,
Mr.. For aker, and bear it in mind
that brave men may lose battle
flags, but will scorn to receive them
back as merchandise or in any
other way than on stricken fields
such as those on which they lost
them. or as pledges of peace, honor
and reconciliation between equals. :"
