Old Sumptuary Laws.

The sumptuary laws that were pass
ed in the middle ages are quite foreign
to the spirit and temper of the nine
teenth century. They aimed at keep
ing each within his proper sphere, by
fixing limits to the expenditure of cit
liens upon apparel and other personal
concerns. A complete schedule Of the
clothing that should be worn in every
class of society was prescribed in the
act of the third year of Edward w.
(1464). Apparently an excess in attire
sprang up that had not been provided
for in this act, for another one fol-
lowed in the ensuing year, prohibiting
the wearing of shoes with long peaked
toes. The pictures of the people of
the Elizabethan age depict what many
would consider an artistic taste in ap-
parel, but which was looked upon at
that time as an excess, and called for
a proclamation (15SO) against broad
rufus, long cloaks and swords, and long
spikes on the bosses of shields.-The

The First Silk Hat.

In an English newspaper of the date
of Jam. 16, 1897, appears the following:
John H~etherington, h~aberdasher, of
the Strand, was arraigned before the
lord mayor yesterday on the charge
of breach of the peace and melting a
riot, and was required to give bond
in the sum of $500. 1t was in evil
dence that Mr.. H~etherington, who Is
well connected, appeared upon the pub
lie highway, wearing upon his head
what he called a silk hat (Which was
offered in evidence), a tall structure
having a shining luster and calculated
to brighten timid people. AS a matter
of fact, the officers Of the crown stated
that several women tainted at the UNI
usual sight, while children screamed,
dogs yelped, and a young son of Cord
wainer Thomas, who was returning
from a chambers shop, was thrown
down by the crowd which had collected
and had his right arm broken. For
these reasons the defendant was seized
by the guards and taken before the
lord mayor. In extenuation of his
crime defendant claimed he had not
violated any law of the kingdom, but
was merely exercising a right to ap-
pear in a headdress of his own design
"a right not denied to any English
man."

Exhibition Games,

A constitutional amendment was
adopted last spring f%orbidding National
league teams taking part in exhibition
games during the schedule season. The
Brooklyn club secured the permission
OF nine club-owners, or two-thirds of
the league, to play an exhibition game
at youngstown, Pa, while en- route west
and the same privilege was extended to
the Louisville club for a Sunday game
with the indianapolis club, and now
the Washington club has made exhibit
tlon dates in Canada. The magnates
make a great mistake il s~uspending
constitutional enactments to oblige
each other. The interests of the
league required this constitutional
clause, because defeat in an exhibition
game with a minor league cheapens
one of it's teams and affects its drawing
powers. Yet the men behind the clubs
have not the courage to prevent this
cheapening process by insisting that
the constitution be lived up to. The
ant1-exhibition game clause should be
abolished. 1t stultfies those men who
placed it in the National league consti-
tuition.

An Absurd Charge Refutad.

The charge ~editorially made by the
Times-Herald of Chicago that the
Brooklyn team lost the first two games
of it's recent series in Chicago to in
crease the attendance at the Sunday
game has called forth many indignant
protests. A. G. Spalding energies from
his retirement to stamp it as a lie out
OF whole cloth in the following COM
munication in the New York Sun:
Il have just read your editorial re-
ferring to the Times-Herald's express
sion OF opinion that the recent baseball
games between the Brooklyn and Chi
cago league teams were crooked or
rather that the victories were appor-
toned between the clubs for gate
money purposes. A responsible paper
has no business making such a serious
charge or insinuation unless it has
some proof to back it up. While l am
not at present actively connected with
baseball management, nor have 1 been
for years, yet l claim to know some
thing about it, and I am a thorough
believer In the integrity of League club
officials, umpires and players, and !
don't hesitate to assert that there has
not been a crooked League game
played, fixed or thrown for gambling
or gate-money purposes since the Ma
tional League expelled Devlin, Hall,
Craver and Nicol in 1873, and l defy
anybody to furnish reasonable proof to
the contrary. The League-Brotherhood
fight of 1890 settled beyond any ques-
ton the absolute honesty of League
baseball games, and l am amazed that
a newspaper Of the standing of the
Chicago Times-Herald should make
such a contemplate insinuation unless
1t had some reasonably good proof
with which to back up the charges.
An official of a baseball club cannot
influence the result of a game without
1mparting his wishes to the umpire or
players, and l have such confidence in
the honesty and integrity of League
players and umpires that 1 want to
see the man that has the temerity to
make any of them a proposition to sell
out and throw a game. And | am also
curious to see his photograph imme-
diately a%fterward. Like every other
well wisher of the national game, I
regret the existence of the so-called
rowdyism, which I believe will gradu-
ally disappear, principally through the
combined efforts of the players them
selves, but the very nature of the game
itself and the earnest desire Of the
players to win. inspired by the large
audiences, will always make baseball
more or less 'scrappy.' and quite a con-
trast to croquet and chess"

Pitcher McGinnity.

Joseph McGinnity, whose wonderful
work for the Baltimore club stamps
him as the pitching find of 1899, was
born at Rock Island, H., on March 10,
1873. He resides in McAllister, l. T.,
and learned to play ball at Decatur, III.
His first professional engagement was
In 1893 with the Montgomery club of
he Southern league. He was with the
Kansas City club of the Western league
in 1894, but i'll health led to his release
early in the season. In 1895, 1896 and
1891 he was the premier pitcher of the
strong Independent team at Spring
field, Ill, which city he made his home.
In 1898 he pitched for the champion
Peoria club of the Western association

In baseball. Nine years ago when in

ran Billie Barnie. His remarkable tai

Hanlon, who succeeded Barnie at Bal
timore in 1892. The conspicuous part
played by McGraw in winning the men,
nant for the Orioles in 1894 and 1898
and his subsequent career, are a mart
OF baseball history. In the spring Of
1896 while on a trip with the Balti-
mores he was stricken with typhoid fe,
yer from the effects of which he did
not recover until near the end of the
season; his strength and skill were not
fully restored until late in 1897. Deli

Hc "Keeps His Eye PeeIed' Even to

Even now the old lawyer crashes his
teeth and says things under his breath
when he thinks of it, says the Detroit
Free Press.
Il followed my fathers advice and
went west" he tells. 81 haven't the
least doubt in the world that the old
gentleman got his idea from Horace
Greeley. ] set up my Office in a new
town, where the crack of a revolver
attracted no more attention thar a fire
alarm in a big city, and had a hand in
almost every case that was tried. But
| declined to fall into the ways OF the
community. / denounced l%ynching as
worse than barbarism, sailed into the
authorities as being parties to this
class of crimes and even defied public
sentiment to the extent of defending
horse thieves. l received a good many
threatening letters, but stood by my
guns. During this exciting experience
L fell in love with the ~lovliest girl on
the whole bounding west, and we were
married. Then my enemies began the
work OF fiendish revenge.
we were actually at the depot and
ABOUT to start on a long wedding tour
through the east when l was summon
ed as a witness in an important mining
suit, about which l knew nothing. In
vain urged this fact, pleaded, de-
ounce and threatened. The officer,
who had evidently been coached, de-
clared me a witness trying to escape
the jurisdiction of the court and very
promptly ciapped me in jail. The next
day l was fined 500 for contempt of
court and thirty days in Jail were add
ed because l talked back. That was
my honeymoon, and l was the maddest
man within the pale of civilization.
once free l took the flyer for Detroit,
and the letter | wrote that judge fairly
scorched the envelope. He tried to ex-
tradite me, but failed, and then he sent
me a challenge. That failed, too, but

years ago that he would shoot on sight.

The Flour and the Ring.

After the goodies have been eaten,
all the French crackers pulled with a
snap and the boy and girl guests at a
birthday party are growing tired OF
new fashioned instruments, here's
something to play-an old-fashioned
game called "the flour and the ring"
This is the way to do it. Somebody
must mold in a coffee cup a mound OF
flour. 1t only takes a little practice to
turn the shape out perfectly upon a
plate. When the mound is formed,
drop into the center Of it some little
gift-a ring, a pretty pin or any small
article a boy or girl would fancy. Who.
ever starts the game must take a knife
and cut through the mound to the
plate. Each one in the circle repeats
this until the lucky boy or girl comes
across the hidden prize, when he or
h must pick it out with the teeth,
The foury nose, cheeks and chin of the
prize winner look enough like a clowns

whole roomful of merry children
