FUN AND ERRORS

ball Game.

DILL tame.
Thunder and lightning made an awk-
ward attempt to prevent the clerks
and officials from coming together on
the diamond yesterday, but the game
went off according to plans and spec
iffcations. About $50 rooters went out
to the ball grounds yesterday and saw
pretty fair kind of a country scrub
game. There was some fun and many
errors, but errors didn't go--it was
game for points and the side making
the greater number of points won. and
the court house gang won, scoring Is
points, while the clerks, who can't play
little bit, scored g. At one stage
Of the game the clerks threatened to
ring in nine substitutes, but Deputy
Sheriff Reynolds for the opponents de-
INJURED and that settled it. Ernest
Hardcastle said he would not play if
the other side called for reinforcements
and Holland made break for the car,
when one of the clerks reported that a
carload of fresh recruits was en- route
from the city. A compromise was eff
fected by the officers promising not
to play their best and to put a man
out only when they could not do other
wise. Most of the players had their
habits on. Some of them were too
sweet for utterance. That snuff col

erbockers that made Hardcastle furi-
Gus won the game no doubt.
Catcher Normoyle also had his hab-
its on, but if the game had lasted two
more innings it would have been all
off with the habits, for at the close of
the game of seven innings the "knicks"
were ripe for the repair shop. The
clerks lacked support in the inffeld and
the balls went out too far for the out
field. so they were handicapped all
around. Wright and Montgomery,
their battery, were above the average
of clerks strength, and if all Of their
men had played as well as they did
may be the score would have been diff
ferent. David Hopkins and Tom Mari

SULLIVAN'S PLAY.
Arranged to Show the Ex-Champion to

John L. Sullivan. as captain of an
ocean liner that crossed the sea last
night at the Grand, was seen by an
admiring throng numbering just about
enough to comfortably fill, the house.
The author" of "A Trip Across the
Ocean arranged the play after a
fashion most agreeable to John l., Sui
Ivan, who is not required to recite a
cumbersome lot of prose; rather, he is
cast merely for the purpose of showing
his 300 pounds of flesh, which he does
with ease and willingness. The cap
tain during the progress of the sense

their girls to sing occasionally, which
they do by twos, threes and fours.
John himself does not sing. The sketch
If brief. 1t is followed by a succession
of specially turns, the Fetching broth
e1s, who do comic musical sket:
Rochefort and May in funny songs and
sayings; Nellie Bertha and Rosa
Crouch, contortionists, the best couple
in the troupe; Ed Sanford and James
Lee in an alleged cemieal talking
match: the illustrated songs, the Rey-
ford sisters and Darmody, a club and
rifle juggler who ranks up with the
best in that line. The performance
concludes with an exhibition bout with
the gloves between the exclamation
and Jake Kilrain. "a Trip Across the
Ocean" will be repeated tonight and
tomorrow night.

awakened to sense of realization. He

a playmate at Centerville one day last
week while a crowd of boys were

colored pugilist from Helena, and a
local man who went under the name
of Douglas. was scheduled to be pull
ed off at the Three Mile house yester-

in the match was so slight that the
principals refused to be mauled up for
the amount of the gate receipts and
decided to call the fight off, though
they gave a Scientific" sparring ex-

the crown was very slim, and after

spent EaCh DnN I'm Smoke

Cigar dealers and manufacturers fig
ure that the Chicago market is good for
at least 300,0oo,o0O cigars a year. In
other words, Chicago men smoke on
an average 100000 cigars day. AL
lowing only five cents as the average
price of these cigars. the total amount
spent every day in Chicago is $4,000
In year Chicago's cigar money foots
up TO the immense sum of Sl4, 600 900.
This takes no account of the money
which goes to pay for pipes, smoking
tobacco and cigarettes. Altogether it
is estimated that 100000 is not more
than is spent in this city yearly for the
seductive weed in its various forms.
The funded debt of the city of Chicago
is SI6,922 900, so that if the estimate of
the amount spent yearly for tobacco
is correct, the smokers of the city could
by denying themselves for single year
entirely relieve the municipality fromits
obligations and in addition give it 4
handsome sum toward the cleaning of
the streets, for instance.-Chicago

See the HumOr of the
Situation.

A lot of people were present at an auction
sale of Japanese goods the other day.
"How much am | bid for this exquisite
vase?" asked the auctioneer, holding it
above his head.
"One dollar" responded an elderly lady,
sitting in one of the front seats.
That's a shame" cried the man with the
hammer. This vase, as work of art, is
worth four times the sum. Why, look at 1t.
Will an intelligent audience allow such
sscrihce?"
"A dollar and a quarter" came in the
same woman voice.
"Well, well, well! Can't you see that this
is a treasure, and you stand here and allow
it to be given away for such paltry sum-"
"a dollar and a half" Again it was the
same bidder speaking.
"a dollar and half The very ideal"
calculated the auctioneer. Il never saw the
like. Come, good people, what is the mean
ing of this! One of the mikados special
designs sighted in such a manner! 1t is a
reflection on your taste"
"A dollar seventy-hve," said the solitary
bidder.
Il cannot let it go for that" was the
mans reply. 1T is too costly, too precious,
and too rare in pattern. Wake up, or I'll
put it back in the box"
1.-TWO dollars" the woman said
'Well, it doesn't seem as if | can get any
more, so here goes. Two dollars-once,
twice, three times! Sold to lady there at
that shameful figure"
The lady stepped up, paid for and received
her vase, and departed, apparently without
noticing the smiles of the audience.-Cin-
