GAMES TODAY.
WashinGton at New York.
Brooklyn at Philadelphia.
Boston at Baltimore.
Chicago at Pittsburg.
Cincinnati at Louisville.

The Senators failed utterly in their ef-
forts to carry the breastworks of the en-
emy in the West, but they are having
smooth sailing in their campaign in the
East Yesterday they administered to the
Giants a double defeat on their home
grounds and today another battle will oc-
cur The main cause of the downfall OF
the Giants was their inability TO hit the
ball Mcfarland had them at his mercy
all through the first game, and in the sec
ond their efforts 10 find Weyhing's deliv-
cry resulted in a shut-out.
The weather was most favorable for a
Tremendous crowd, but the blight OF Freed
manism seems to have been indalibly i'm
printed upon baseball affairs in the me-
tropolis. and the fans either stayed at
home or sought pleasure at some of the
seaside resorts. Eight thousand was the
total number OF persons that saw the
games.
With Davis at short and Seymour in the
box. the Giants presented the strongest
team that it is possible for them to mus
ter, but before Weyhing's pitching, the
home club was powerless. The Senators
secured only half dozen hits off Seymour
but they had a provoking habit Of bunch
ing them. In the fifth inning Freeman Sc
cured the first run of the game on a base
on balls, Padden's single, Barry's sacrifice
and McGuire's single In the seventh after
Padden had singled, Barry sent the Sena-
torial captain home with a two -bagger.
The Senators iielded in brilliant syle
and many a would-be base hit was turned
into an easy out. Padden led his team
both at the bat and in the field, accepting
five chances without an error, besides get
ting half OF the hits secured of Seymour
Slagle redeemed himself from the odium
that had been cast upon him on account o
his miserable work in the morning game

DIAMOND DUST.

Keeler and Laioe both reached the century
mark in basehits yesterday.
Philadelphia has developed into very potent
factor in the pennant race.
Ten hits by the Giants in eighteen innings
stamps the box artists of the Senators as all
right.
"Arlie'' Latham's work as an umpire at Pitts
burg yesterday is said to have given general sat

Frank DeHass Robson spent the evening of the
Fourth quietly in his room, counting the coin he
didn't get on account OF rain.
The "Flying Dutchman,' Schmidt, pitched
great game for the Exiles yesterday. He lost
his own game, however, on errors
The losses of Brooklyn and Boston in the last
two weeks have added greatly to the interest in
the race for the flag the first division teams now
being nicely punched.
The Exiles certainly played in hard luck not
to win Of their contests yesterday. They
made the Pirates hustle all the way, and de-

KITES MAKE 4 RECORD
Interesting Aerial Experiments at
Bayonne, N. j.
Thermometer Sent to the Highest
Point Recording Instruments Ever
Reached-American Flags Suspend
ed in Midair-Static Electricity
Gathered From the Atmosphere.

New York, July 5.-With brilliant dis
plays of bunting floating high in the air
beneath vari-colored aeroplanes, the ex-
pert kite flyers of Bayonne afforded di-
version to thousands of interested specta-
tors during the experimental kite flights
yesterday. In The forenoon the Bayonne
Kite Corps, operating at the corner OF
Humphreys Avenue and West Fourth
Street, Bergen Point, sent to height of
1000 feet an American flag measuring 6x10
feet, and also raised to that altitude
self-recording thermometer. The emblem
floated for several hours beneath the blue
sky and was discerned by observers on
Staten Island and at Elizabeth and Jersey
City. Four seven-foot kites We're used to
support the flag and instrument.
When the thermometer left the earth it
registered 81 degrees. Aloft it fell to S4
degrees. In the afternoon the southeast
wind freshened TO velocity OF twenty
miles an hour, and the corps contrived to
excel the record of the metropolitan dis
trict kite flyers for the altitude reached by
meteorological instruments sent aloft. The
self-recording thermometer, which noted
temperature of 80 degrees at the earth and
SO degrees alOft, was shown by triangula-
tion TO have attained height of 400 feet
with seven kites. having an aggregate SUR
face of 141 square feet, soaring at the end
of 1000 feet of steel piano wire
Ten signal flags, each six feet square,
reading Remember the Glad Tidings OF
Independence Day Last Year" were strung
across the sky at a height Of $50 feet The
pull ON the kite cable reached 900 pounds.
Static electricity that gathered on the wire
was collected in Leyden jars at the earth,
half-inch sparks being frequently discharg
ed. The barometer stood at 30.10 inches,
and there was about rs per cent OF humid
ity in the atmosphere. William A. Eddy
and his assistants flew a large American
flag several hundred feet high in the aft
ernoon, with five kites to sustain 1t. Two
of the aeroplanes were borne down by the
wind when the brisk breeze caused the
great strain to break the kite cord.

Fires in Maryland.

Elkton, Nd, July 5.-The barn owned
by Mrs. Lucy H. Litzenburg in the rear
of the business portion of Main Street,
caught fire yesterday afternoon and was
partly destroyed. The prompt response of
the Singerly Fire Company not only saved
the adjoining buildings but no doubt pre-
vented a great confagration. The loss to
the barn and contents amounts to about
$500. The origin of the fire is unknown.
Fire at Chesapeake City, Cecil county,
yesterday, destroyed the kitchen attached
to the Park Hotel. The hotel proper was
slightly damaged by smoke and water.

Sea Salt Polluting the wells.

Cambridge, Nd, July 5.-Along the
Choptank River shore in the localities of
Madison and Taylors Island the residents
are being forced to sink artesian wells
for better water supply. 1t is claimed
that the ordinary wells and driven pumps
are becoming very salt, owing to the
tide running higher each year. Many
farms lying close to the shore are begin
ming to show the salt water marks, and
this is flooding the wells. B. F. Harring-
ton, of Taylors Island, has just driven a
pump 500 feet and has a fine flow of splen-
did water. w. w. Harrington, of Madi-
son, has also driven ,40a feet, and will con-
tinue until water Is found.

ris Place. Some time ago he fell and
struck his forehead against a table leg.
The wound healed, but ever since he has
been having periodical nose bleeds, and
always on Wednesday. The slightest pres
sure on the boys body is enough to cause
a slight hemorrhage under his skin. His
body is covered with black and blue marks,
where the blood has coagulated.
