WILLIAM BROWN DEAD.
weIikno,,n Hall Player Succumbs to
Lingering Corsu mptior.

weiiknown Hall Player succumbs to
Lingering Consumption.
William Brown, known to all
lovers of baseball in the United
States and these islands, died re-
Gently at his home in San Fran
cisco from consumption, after a
lingering illness. He was here
about eighteen months ago in
health and made many friends.
Brown first attracted public at
tention as baseball player i'll the
early days of the old California
League. He then played with the
Greenbood a. Morsns of Oakland,
catching the delivery of George
Van Hsltren, who at that time
had Just started his career as a
professional ball player, an occu-
patton in which he soon became
famous and one that he still fol-
lows with great success.
Browns work with the Oak.
land team secured for him an en-
gagement with the New York club
of the National League, aud for
years Baby Bill" WAS one of the
giants of 1.-The Giants" He fol-
lowed the fortunes of most of the
ball players of the country when
the Players League was formed,
and after the collapse OF that
organization Brown resumed his
place behind the bat for the New
Norks.
Brown was one Of the most
able and conscientious players of
his day, and with the great ball
loving patrons of New York and
other National League cities al
ways held in high esteem. He
was one of the best of the many
splendid catchers on the New
York team and could fill accep-
tably other places in the field, es
pecially first base.
Brown retired from the game
some years ago, and since then
had been living with his mother
at her home, 1873 Silver street, in
this city. He was always in re-
ceipt of a good salary and saved
his money without acquiring the
reputation among his fellow play
ers of being misery.
About two years ago, Brown,
who was once a perfect specimen
of physical manhood, became al
ficted with lung trouble. He
sought relief in the Hawaiian Isl-
ands, Southern California and
Arizona, but in vain. Deceased
was thirty-two years of age.

Out came the tourists note book, in
which a memorandum was at once
iotted down of the curious statement.
In the first edition of the sketches the
fact was duly mentioned, but it was
suppressed in al the subsequent issues,
owing to the tardy discovery that the

PETROLEUM WAGONS.
The New Motor Carriages and
Their Cost


The practibnfty OF these carriages
seems to be placed beyond doubt. Since
1872 they have been growing In favor
IN France, and the only wonder Is that
we have not seen them over here before
now. The future would appear to be-
long to them, If all be true, and we can
hardly doubt the bona fides. They are
as easily worked as a tricycle-prob-
ably easier. Anovice, rs many witness,
is able upon the first trial to drive ms
carriage over 200 miles In days OF
10 hours apiece. Tourists have wan
dered over half a dozen departments IN
them, and the taste is spreading every
day. Soon the enthusiasm will reach
England, and then-well, 1t il difficult
to say what will happen then.
For among the great advantages OF
the petroleum carriage is Its remarkable
cheapness. The cost of carriage II
not much in the first instance. They
are built, as we have said, with touching
fidelity to old forms. There is the dog
cart, the wagonette, the phaeton, the
"break" and the "mylord,' a. our
French friends have it. From q purely
Law contemplation of these vehicles, we
are not disposed to think that finality
has been reached in regard to their
shape.
When the first railway carriages were
constructed, either out of loving con-
servatism or from a desire not to Of
fend, they were built upon the line OF
the stage coach and colored to match.
In time they achieved their own inde-
pendence and individuality. Messrs.
Panhard and Levassor will probably find
time and experience ripen their in
vention in this respect. At present
voiture deux places cost e 1853;
voiture a quartre places forme dogcart
costs E2OO; the phaeton, e212, and
the ''mylord'' heads the price list at
e 24O. These cannotbe reckoned ex-
travagant prices. And when You have
once purchased q voiture to your taste
the saving seems amazing.
To begin with, two horses can be dis
carded; and horses, we believe, are
roughly estimated to cost e IS or 30
a year apiece to keep. Apurchaser OF a
petroleum carriage reckons that it costs
him from 1.5Of. to 2f. day. The manu-
facturer's reckoning is 4c. per kilometer
for 2-seated carriage and SC. for a
i-seated carriage; let us say. on an
average, something between half
penny and 3 farthings mile.
Compare this with the expenses OF
horses. Let us say cab horse costs
some SO, and is available for three
years; that constitutes yearly charge
OF 6 IL. Add to this 6 IS for food and
keeping, and we get 9 total of 6 81. The
initial outlay on the vehicle may be ig-
nored, as we are also ignoring the initial
cost of voiture. A horse, year in and
year out, would hardly do more than Is
miles day. Out of these figures, which
are, of course, rough, one may deduct
something like twopence q mile as the
cost Of horse carriage. The advan-
tage is in favor of the petroleum car

WAR AS A CiviLiZER.


Times when Battle was the On1y Ef-
fsctive Means.
Merchants, undoubtedly, in early
times penetrated foreign tribes and ma
tions, and brought home, in addition to
their wares, stories of what they had
seen and learned abroad. But the
merchants were too few, too ignorant
and prejudiced, and too little given to
observation. to spread much useful In
formation in this way; and their peo-
pies were too self-satisf3ed to give up
any customs and beliefs of their own
for those thus brought them.
How, then, could any effective result
from national contact be produced7 In
primitive times the only effective agency
must have been that of war. Destruc-
tive as this is in it's results, it has the
one useful effect of thoroughly COM
mingling diverse peoples, bringing
them into the closest contact with each
other, and forcing upon the attention
Of each the advantages possessed by
the other. The csldron Of human so
ciety must oe set boiling before its con-
tents can fully mingle and combine.
War is the furnace in which this ebulli-
ton takes place, and through whose
activity human ideas are forced to cir
culate through and through the minds
of men.-Charles Morris, in Popular
Science Monthly.

osaAlsasss and DociiIty Of the Well
Trained Animals.
In the easternmost corner OF Prussia,
near the village of Trakehnen, is q
famous horse-breeding establishment,
which was started by the father OF
Frederick the Great. This great stud
farm is still carried on with character
istic energy, and not only provides the
German army with the hundred thou
sand horses which it requires in time OF
peace, but does much toward keeping
up a nigh general standard among
horses of the country. Nearly every
farm in east Prussia is devoted to this
one occupation, and the German army
gets many more horses from this little
corner than from anywhere else in the
kingdom. The author of 1.-THE Border
land OF Gear and Kaiser" gives an ad-
mirable picture of the gentleness and
docility of the Trakehnen thorough
breds.
We pulled up in field where were
hundred three-year-old stations rum
nlng free, and watched by two herders,
each bearing long whip, which he
cracked now and then asa warning that
some one of the herd was straying.
The herd appeared very quiet, and
paid little attention to our carriage as
it drove up close to them on the grass
The major said that they were as gentle
as sheep and not half as shy, and at his
invitation jumped from my seat and
walked up to them, into the very midst
of them, strolling in and out amongst
them, patting them on the nose or
flank, wherever happened to be near
est to them.
To secure this result prize is offered
to those herders whose horses show the
most confiding disposition at the ap-
proach of man.
One evening we went to see the
horses called home from the pasture.
They came in troops of hundreds, and
gathered in large Enclosures facing the
stables. The main body divided itself
according to color, the blacks going to
one corner, the browns to another, the
bays to third; of whites or grays 1
saw no specimens.
Here and there would be one that had
mistaken his corner, or was seeking for
hidden company out of mischief. The
keeper had no difficulty in bringing him
to his right senses. however, by simply
calling his name and waving his hand
in the direction of the corner to which
he belonged. The colt thus addressed
invariably leaped out from the corner
to which he was an intruder, and gal
loped straight to the corner whose color
matched his This we saw done many
times over, and it never failed.-Youth's
