CoMIsKEY's TEAM.
Some fthe Reasons Why the Chicago

and Com1skey knew what he was ahout
when he signed them. Hoy is said to re-
800 s{ me same salary that he got in
10 ~ ulsvllIe, which was 81, 100 for the season.
IIus Is more salary than any outfielder
on the Cincinnati National league team
receives. Brodie gets the same salary or
more, than he received at Baltimore. In
TACT, his salary IS about the same as
Hoy's, Both men get more for the sea-
son son P 1nan any OF the outer gardeners of
There are few outfelders in the country
VINO excel either Hoy or Brodie in the
outneld. Comiskey made a good invest
ment when he stretched the salary limit
and signed them Both men are doine,
thhelr snare to bring people out to see
me games at Comiskey's park. During
tne season Hoy and Brodie will get line
hits that some National league outfelders
could not get under It would not be
surprising to see them both back in the
major organization next year Tom Daiv
was reSurrected at Milwaukee in the
Western league, and now he is PLAYING
second base in fine style for the best
baseball club in the world. Because a
man IS allowed to drift to a minor league
IS not always a sign that he is ''all OUT
Hoy and Brodie are exceptions to the rule
the same as Tom DAILY. Bill Hoffer was
allowed to get away from Pittsburg and
now IS pltehlng line ball for Cleveland
and 1t is acknowledged in Pittsburg that
ms release was managerial mistake
DICK Padden Is a better second basernan
than some of the men playing the bag in
the National league. He takes long
chances to win, runs the bases well, and
Is hard worker and hustler for his
team. New York has never been able to
replace Fred Hartman at third. With
such nlaWpTE ic rzrcrt -
iskey's team is in the lead. The White
stockings could come pretty near putting
II on Harts National leaguers in a post
arrange such a series if it we're not for
the lear OF showing up his big 1eaguers.
Such a series of games would no doubt
draw well in the Windy City.

A TRIP TO PARIS.
Edition Howe Tells How Expensive it
Is For Two.
IFrom the Atchison Globe.l

IFTOIn the AtchISOn GIODe.I
Answer to a correspondent: A round
trip ticket from Atchison to Paris costs
from $50 to $500. You can go from
Atchison to Paris and return very COM
fortably for $50, which would mean
second class on a fast ship. Second
class on a steamship is very comforta-
bic; almost as comfortable as first class.
Two Atchison men recently spent fifteen
days in Paris, and did not stint them
selves particularly. They employed a
guide, and rode a good deal in cabs,
in order to get about quickly. During
the fifteen days they spent 5000 between
them. A trip to Paris lasting five weeks
which would mean fifteen days at the
exposition, would cost from $500 up.

House and Jail

Mcpherson. June 2S.-This county is
entirely free from debt and it has as
fine a court house and Jail as there is
in western Kansas. They were recent
~ built but are paid for.
Harvey is the only adjoining county
that can boast of not owing anyone a
cent. Rice county has a bonded indebt
edness of $1O2, 600, Marion county S31S,
600. Saline county $253,000 and Reno
county 1852, 600. From a comparison of
these figures it will be easily seen that
Mcpherson county is far ahead of the
average of her neighbors.
