DIAMOND DUST.

The second game of the series with Min
neapolis, and the last one on the home
grounds this year will be played at Lex
ington this afternoon at 3:45 O'Clock. ka-
toll will be in the box for the Saints, and
it is probable that Menefee will do the
twirling for the men from up the river.
Manager Comiskey returned yesterday
from Duluth, and Patterson and Hart will
follow him this morning. Hart has been
playing third base for the Superior team,
and has been putting up a good game,
both in the field and at bat. He will prob
ably play the third bag today.
Charley Frank was in the game good
and strong yesterday. He played the
sun field as though he had been born
there, and also hit Friend hard, although
he was unable to get but one drive safely
placed
Geier played a pretty game at second,
and great credit is due him from the fact
that he is not familiar with the position.
He accepted all his chances without
skip.
Roger Denzer pitched a remarkable
game of base ball, and was more than
entitled to win, but luck was against him.
hit in the same inning would have been
safe and sound on any other day.
Some of Brennan's decisions on the
bases were decidedly close but it was an
even break between the teams
Cantillon, as usual, was away off on
balls and strikes. He should get a pair of
glasses or get out of the business. Two
hundred and fifty dollars a month for
such unpiring is about S261 too much.
The Millers were a decidedly quiet lot
yesterday for some reason. Possibly it
was because they had to play base ball all
the time and did not have time to kick.
1t looks to the old-time fans as if Min
neapolis is winning from st. Paul by out
| lucking the Saints. On form St Paul
should have won yesterday. Several Of
the other games went to Minneapolis by
good fortune rather than good playing.
For instance in the game of the morning
of the Fourth of July the Millers won bv
a fuke, a ball striking a stone in front
of Lally and bounding over his head, thus
giving the winning run to the visitors
All things considered, probably Roger
DenZer never pitched a better game of
ball in his life than that of yesterday.
But thirty men faced him. OF these two
made hits in different innings, one got a
base on balls and two reached first on
errors. Neither the hits nor the base on
balls affected the score. The two errors
came in the same inning, Abbatichio get
ting first on Shugarts tumble, was sac
rificed to second, took third on a long fly
to right and scored on Preston's low
throw to first of Davis grounder. AS
there were two sacrifice hits and a base
ha1 no Ainnpann1iS at DoF
shows 27, just the number necessary to
make a full game of nine innings.
To some people it looks as if St. Paul
were having a run of bad luck which Is
entirely undeserved For instance, the
team has won but three of the last seven
games, and yet the Saints have made 81
hits to their opponents SO, lead of 25

by the. pitching of Powers, allowing Min

There are assurances from Washington
that the gold standard bill will pass both
Houses Of Congress. It passed the House
Monday by vote Of 100 to $50, every
Republican and eleven Democrats voting
in the affirmative 1t will also have Demo-
cratic support in the Senate. This pros
pect is not displeasing to the most widely
circulated Democratic newspaper in the
country. The New York World says:
1t is sign of quickened conscience
and of returning sense and courage when
a number of the Democratic Representa-
tives in Congress from this State are ready
to vote for the gold standard, which is
now actually or in effect the standard of
the whole civilized world. In SO doing
they will simply return to the Democratic
principle and policy which was establish
ed by Thomas jefferson more than half a
century before the present Republican
party came into existence, and which
governed every Democratic convention
and President from jefferson time to
Cleveland's.

There is no disputing the fact that the
country has entered upon an era of pros
perity. Prices are high in good times
and low in bad times, and there has been
in the past year remarkable advance in
all lines. Dry goods men are paying more
now for cotton cloth than they retailed
the same goods for few months ago.
Coal oil has gone from 9 cents per gallon
retail to IA cents. In lum Der there has
been a surprising rise in prices. Logs
that sold last year from 80 to 81 per
thousand brought s11.5O to S14.5O this
year, while spruce lumber that sold in
1898 at S11 so to S14 so has been in great
demand at SIS to S22. There are few
logs and little or no lumber left at ship
ping points and an army of men has gone
into the woods to cut supply for the
coming season. On the Penobscot alone
there will be a cut of 100, 900, 900 to 200, :
900, 600 feet, and on the kennebec about
1000, 900 feet.

recent lette: from a friend in Massa-
chusetts concerning the brigantine con
troversy prompts US to say a few more
words on that subject, particularly as The
Journals position in the matter has been
persstently misrepresented by the Bangor
Daily News and its correspondents, one of
them making it appear that we had said
jackass brig and a hermophrodite brig
nothing OF the kind. The diagram of
brigantl ne published in the government
list of merchant vessels, variously referred
to. has nothing to do with the case. That
such a RIG may have been seen sometime,
somewhere was not questioned. The
Journals contention was that that rig is
obsolete. and that what we used to call an
hermophrodite brig the English called
brgantine and that later these vessels of
both countries were called by the same
name, and are indeutical in rig. In the
marine lists to-day they usually appear as
bligs, and the barkentiues are reported
as barks. This effects quite saving to
the daily papers in space and composition,
and creates no confusion, as full-rigged
briggs have not been built for many years
and but very few banks. The rigs of brig,
brigantine, aud bark seem likely to pass
away with the vessels Of these classes
now atloat, leaving the carrying trade
to the two, three, four, five and six
masted schooners, and the barkentines.

The recent cases of malicious mischief,

The recent cases of malicious mischief,
followed by incendiarism, in Montville,
and still more recent case in Northport,
presents some features which seem to call
for consideration. The offenders in the
latter case are known, but are not respon-
sible financially, and while they are liable
to legal punishment there is no redress,
apparently, for Mr.. Pitcher, whose mill
was wrecked If the offender in Mont
vile is discovered it is more than probable
that it will prove to be some one without
money or property. But there ought to
be responsibility some where; some pro-
lection for life and property, for incendiar-
ism endangers both.

We print on the 7th page a letter from

We print on the 7th page letter from
Henry R. Dawson of Monroe, in which he
announces that he shall be candidate for
State Senator before the Republican coun-
ty convention next year, and states the
grounds upon which he will solicit sup
port. We recently had something to say
concerning the election of members of the
legislature, showing that the present sys
TEN of electing representatives from the
smaller places permits of only one term,
while the cities can return the same men
year after year, with increasing power
and influence. Here is our friend Daw-
son of Monroe, who made an excellent
record as Representative from his class in
the last legislature and who would be able
to do even better service in the next legis
lature, but under the present system the
nomination goes to another town. We do
not believe, any more than he, that there
should be mortgage on public offices;
but we do believe that when Representa-
tive in Congress or in the State Legisla
ture shows that he is the right man in the
right place he should be retained until
his usefulness is past. The Maine dele
cation in Congress has for many years
been a conspicuous illustration of the
wisdom of this course.
When we had yearly elections in Maine
party usage called for two nominations,
unless there were special reasons for not
giving a second term; but under the
nomination as Representative, for ex-
ample, for two years was equivalent to
two terms. But there cannot we'll be any
hard and fast rule on this point; nor can
one convention govern the next conven-
ton in this direction. Whatever action
one convention might take could only be
regarded as an expression of opinion
which delegates to the succeeding conven-
ton could regard or disregard as they saw
fit SO with party usage. 1t has its
weight, but cannot be accepted as man
datory in all cases.
The equalization of taxation is what
everybody. except the favored few, would
like to see; yet while reform in this direc-
ton is possible, it is not probable that
that any of us will live to see the
problem satisfactorily solved. 1t is I'M
fortunately true everywhere that the bur
den of taxation is unequally borne. The
man who owns a small house or a small
farm and earns his living by daily labor
pays a higher tax proportionately than his
wealthy neighbor; and we fear this will
always be the case. 1t is also true that a
large amount of property, or of wealth
in its varied forms, escapes taxation
altogether and thus increases the burden
upon property that is in plain sight of the
assessors The journal is heartily in
favor OF any movement which promises
to remedy these evils, as every good citi
zen must be- If this dream could be
realized we should feel that the millennium
had been reached, but fear it is still far
distant.

DIDN'T ESCAPE DEATH
Les Gray, 8 Negro, Escaped From
 Taylor Bros Place

Late Thursday evening we receiY ed information that Les Gray, the negro who escaped from the farm of the Taylor Bros, had been killed at Bearden. Policeman trannon says: Tn company with two other policemen, after receiving a teIe- phone message from Mr. McCord at the Bluff City mill so the effect that he had the escaped prisoner there with his wife and two children in a box car, and that the prisoner was golng to leave that afternoon on a Cotton Belt freight train, we re paired to the mill at once, and found the negro sitting oyer on the steps of the school house. When Shultz went over to hlm, the negro reach ed for his gun, which he had stolen, so it seems. At this action on the part of the convict, Shultz pulled his bistol and put his hand to the place where the negro made a dive with his hand. They had quite a tussle; another man also heinz pres ent. The negro escaped, the po- Iiceman firing II shots after his fleeing figure. He left that night on the Cotton Belt.
 The negro had been working on the road gang at the Taylor Bros. place. His death was oceasioned by his stealing horse from man at Bearden. The police were set after him and rather than submit to arrest, he started on run and was killed near Bearden by an off cer, as above stated. The man s name he stole the horse from is Harrington.

IF IT WAS A GIRL?
Wouldn't this Be q Funny Thing
 for the Lawyer,

We have received a paper whicL is indeed novel. It's to an extent what might be termed unborn law. Comparing 1t with ancient marriage methods, it savers of raniog peo. pie before they are born. From the summons which appears below it will be seen that the Czar of Russia is not the only man who las Dr. Schneek.
 Recently John J. BowIes and his nephew, William Edgar Bowles, were killed in a duel. The wife of William Edgar Bowles survives. The law provides for the heir or offspring of wedlock. Suit has been instituted against Mrs. William Edgar Bowl les. and the lawyer who wrote the summons in equity was certainly wide awake practitioner. For the benefit of those who have not seen the novel summons we publish it, as follows:
 Summons in Equity, No. 3517, State of Arkansas. To the Sheriff of Lincoln county, Greeting: You are commanded to summon Lizzie M. Bowles and William Edgar Bowles, tbe unborn child Of William Edgar BowIes, to answer iE twenty days after the service of this sum mons upon them a complaint in equity filed against them in Besha county chancery court for the Wat son District, by M. Cans and Simo1 Bloom, as partners as M. Cans & Co.,, and warn them upon their fail ure to answer, the compIaiat will be taken for confessed. And you will make due retarn of this summons on the first day of November 1899 =
 But the summons must be returned by that time with service on the unborn child. This is truly a remark able case, .inasmuch as we have never seen nor chronicled one simi- lar to it.
