New London, Aug. 22-In the game with Derby this afternoon New London got three runs in the first inning by three bunted balls, which apparently discouraged the visitors as they played a slow game throughout. Humphrey pitched a steady game and was touch- ed up for but four hits, while Drink water. the Derby twirler, had twelve hits made off of him. However New London would have made fewer hits if the visitors had put little more ginger into their work Score:

DDtIcian's Latin

Hiram had returned home from col.
lege, where he had won high honors
as student of the ancient languages,
but he fell down" one day when his
sister, demure young girl in her
teens, asked him to translate sign
she had seen in front of an opticians
office, which read thus:
"Con Sultu Sabo Utyo Urey Es.''
Hiram struggled manfully with it,
for several minutes, and gave it up.
ut isn't good Latin" he said. "Therd
are some words in it that are Latin,
but the others are either wrong in
termination or are barbarisms from
other languages, and, taken as a
whole, it doesn't make sense"
'>That is what l said" rejoined his
sister, "but Keturah, out in the kitch.
en-, translates it without any trouble.
She says it means, Consult us about
your eyes,"
Whereupon Hiram collapsed. -

1t is an invariable rule that mem,
bers of the house of commons must
address their remarks to the house
through the chair, and, though in the
flow of argument an orator is often al
lowed, without remonstrance, to use
the second personal plural in admon-
ishing his opponents, the first words
are always addressed to the occupant
of the chair. This, like many other
rules of debate, has percolated from
the house of commons down to all our
minor assemblies, and the consequences
is that few members find any difficul-
ty in complying with the custom.

RECORD OF FOUR YEARS.
senator Hanna, Talking of Vice
President. Incidentally Recites
Recent ACCOMPLISH sbments.

NEW YORK May 1.-THE Herald pub
fishes the following statement made by
Senator Hanna last night:
The selection Of man for the second
place is open, has always been and will so
continue until the convention shall have
made its choice.
There has been much discussion OF diff
ferent men for the place. which is very
interesting and proper. but when IT is said
that any particular man has the prefer
ence II is a mistake.
Gov, Roosevelt WIN not be nominated
Tor vice president and has not been dis
cussed in that connection by party leaders,
The assertions made here and there
that the president is concerning himself
with the choice of his associate on the
ticket do him injustice. He has invariably
declined to take any part.
1T would be manifestly inappropriate
for him TO take part in such movements.
1T can be said with emphasis that the
vice presidential nomination will remain
until the assembling of the convention.
and then will be determined as the best
interests of the party and all concerned
shall require.
"A number of names have been brought
forward. and no doubt each gentleman
will develop strength. There may be some
ballots before the selection can be made.
hut you can rest assured the man put upon
the ticket will be the man the majority of
the convention wish 10 have there. This
will be fair TO all.
II have yet to hear, from any source
within the lines of the Republican party,
even a ripple of hesitation regarding the
denomination of President Mckinley
THE past four years have given rise to
new issues. There will he bold declara-
tions on these. Four years ago we were
practically a hermit nation. isolated from
all the world forces which promote indus
try. trade and commerce.
"The war with Spain. through wise
councils in the executive office and the
warliks spirit OF the army and navy and
people. was brought 10 such prompt and
satisfactory conclusion that II not only
opened the eyes of the world to our in
vincibe fighting capacity but to our mar
yelous advance In manufactures. II ex-
tended our territories. broadened our pro-
ductive capacity and extended our dOmes-
tic markets among people whose trade has
been a bone Of contention among Eura-
pean nations for centuries.
THE Republican convention in its plat
form declarations will have TO meet all
these new problems of public policy by
taking advanced grounds"
