Gains Brilliant Play.

The most brilliant play of the game
fell To Cain. 1t was in the third inning.
Hopkins. the first man up, smacked a
cruunder down to the third baseman
that was really, truly wicked. 1t
yrurched the ground in several places,
and when it struck Cain it Knocked
him to his knees and turned him almost
entirely around. But he swung to the
ball and fired it over to Margetts in
time to retire Hoppy. Penny, who came
next. banged a low liner at Cain. which
was gathered in most acceptably. In
this inning just four balls were pitched
by Kimmerer. for BOYlan, who fol-
lowed Pendergraft. laced out a high
one which AsbuTy got under.
In view of the many excellent plays
one can afford to be charitable and
overlook the poor ones. KnickerbOcker,
arstWhile catcher for the Shorts, got
back into the game and played short.
Barring an apparent lack of Self-COn-
fdence he held down the position in
frSt-clasS style. the two errors charged

N0uSaeSS than anything else

In an elevated train sat q dignifed,
severe looking lady. In her lap Lay
q thick book, whose manila paper cov-
er bore the stamp Of the Y. w. @. A.

beside the bundle little fat tin box.
The seat facing her was occupied by
q very young man and a white haired
old man, rather nervous, but with a
kind and interested expression.
AS the train slowed up for the Fif-
tieth street station the lady gathered
up her bundle, rose and began to ell
bow her way through the crowded
aisle toward the door. The young man
looked at the little tin box left on the
seat, but did not bulge. The old gen
ueman no sooner spied it than he grab

feet and gently touched the lady's 8

she turned aroXnd.

fore going to bed the result is sleepless-
Some nights ago a number Of friends
dropped in for the evening, and the
husband, who, by the way, is south
erner, suggested that he make a mint
julep for each Of the company. The
suggestion was received with delight,
and the juleps were promptly mixed.
In his wife's glass, however, he put
only enough whisky to flavor the
water, probably not more than a tea
spoonful. OF this she slipped about
half. The result, however, was the
same. She was troubled with insomnia
all night long, and it was not until 5
o'clock in the morning that she drop
ped off to sleep and, as a conse-
quence, was not called for breakfast.
At 10 o'clock she came down stairs
and hearing the voices of children on
the front porch stopped to listen. Her
heart filled with mOtherly pride as she
heard her elder son, boy of 6, telling
seven or eight children from the neigh
borhood that they must not make too
much noise as his mamma was asleep.
Imagine her horror, too, as the young
hopeful added:

night that she couldn't come down to

One New York millionaire who earn
ed his fortune by his own efforts under
rather disadvantageous circumstances
conducts his business in a way that Is
highly original in many particulars.
One of the most striking of these is his
method Of dealing with his employees.
They are paid every night, and at the
close of every business day all the ex-
penses of running the business have
been met, and the manager knows just
how his affairs stand as far as that
feature of his business is concerned.
But that Is not his object in paying
salaries every day instead Of following
the usual custom and waiting until the
end of the week or month. He employs
many men who have lost former situ-
atoms through intemperance, although
they were all men Of ability in their
field. If they severed their connection
practically with the establishment at
the close of every business day, it
made no difference to the employer
what happened to the man after he left
his establishment. By this means the
millionaire Is able to get the services

Mr.. Frank w. Graves during his
newspaper career witnessed many sim
gular scenes, but the oldest one hap
pened, according to Mr.. Graves, in the
old days when the big college football
teams played their star games on the
New York polo grounds on Thanksgiv-
ing day.
On the occasion mentioned Yale and
Princeton had played and Yale had
won.
Going up Broadway there walked a
dapper young Princeton man and a
girl. Going down Broadway at the
same moment were eight victorious
young Yale men. They were happy,
but silent, and they came straight
down the street until they spied the
Princeton pair.
Then still in silence, moved by a sim
gle purpose, the Yale men formed a
circle, and as the other pedestrians
made way for them they went around
and around the Princeton pair. At first
the young man was surprised, then an
gered, and at last he raised his cane
and made dash for liberty, whereup-
on the Yale men stopped and, without
a word, fell upon him as they do in
football. quietly, heavily and quickly.
Then, Strengthening themselves again
into line, the eight Yalesians stopped

hats to the thoroughly frightened girl
and silently resumed their march down
the street.-Saturday Evening Post.

Income of a Sleeping Car.

The income or earning capacity Of
sleeping car is considerable. Take the
run from New York to Chicago, 1000
miles. Every road In the United States
pays cents mile for the privilege Of
hauling sleeper and contracts to re-
turn said car in as good shape as it Is
received and to pay for all damages.
The journey on the limited expresses
to Chicago is made in "a hours; there
fore the car earns $50 day for travel.
If it is full, which Is generally the
case, receipts from berths, sections and
staterooms amount to $1S5, making a
total revenue of $125 a day. Out of
this must come the wages of the por-
ter and conductor-the latter, however,
usually having charge of several cars
the towels, sheets, soap, ice, ETC., the
whole amounting to but a small sum.
Then there are the wear and tear and
general depreciation, the daily clean
ing, the annual refitting and repaint-
ing. Set these charges down at 10 per
cent and give the car three trips a
week of 1000 miles each, and we have
it's earnings at over 100000 annually.
Some can earn great deal more
