One Of the Cleverest Baseball Games
Ever Fought in Astoria.
The baseball game at A. F. C. Park
yesterday afternoon between the AS
toria and Portland teams was one Of
the cleverest exhibitions in that line
ever witnessed in this city. The AS
toria team had the short end Of the
contest up to the fourth inning, but
al the beginning of the fifth, they
gained strength in the battery and
changed 4he, score in their favor.
The game was devoid of errors al
most to a remarkable degree and in
the base-running the players on both
sides did some exceptionally clever
work. ~
The game wound up with score Of
II To in favor Of the Astoria team.

TO ACT LIKE A LADY.

The latest addition to the city's ed ucational institutions is a school where young women can learn to walk, stand. sit and loll elegantly. It is con ducted by bright woman, who un- doubtedlv has clear understanding of human nature. Besides classes for maidens. there are special classes for grown women. The rates are equal to those of a college. and the instruction is said to be thorough and wearisome. Most of tue pupils are people who have come from the country CT suburbs to the city. although q few belong to the class that started life in the-tenements, and by successful enterprise or econ Cmy have risen to the brownstone dis trictS Many of the older scholars desire to be instructed in positions which they have seen upon the stage or else in books. and 10 matter how think it is up to date they are bound to master it.
 The curriculum is quite long. It includes calisthenics, special exercises, dancing and conversation. Every pos sible occurrence in a drawing room. a dining room. or boudoir is initiated and rehearsed ad intinitum. Especial attention is paid to the hands and tine feet. these being, according to the teacher. the most treacherous members of the feminine outfit. Even after a scholar has learned-~to stand and sit correctly. she will asslrme poses with her upper and lower eXtremitieS which indi ate rusticity or vulgarity.-N York Evening Post.

CAME WHILE YOU WAIT.

One day this fall a Connecticut man who lives in q town not many miles from Hartford had for dinner par fridge which had flown in through the window destroying a plate glass win dow and killing himself. It seems that prairie chickens have the same sui cidal habit The Ravalli, Mont, Repub- lican says:
 The people about the Ravalli hotel were treated to a rather strange ex- perience last Wednesday, and one which could scarcely happen in coun- try less noted for it's winged game than the Bitter Root valley. The people in the kitchen were startled just before noon by the crash of falling glass from one of the dining room windows. and at first thought that some malicious or careless person had thrown a stone through it. In fact, one of the girls in the laundry said she had seen the stone fly across the lawn and through the window. Mrs Green called her husband and they hastened to the din- ing room. where to their great sur prise they found a prairie chicken gasp ing it's last on the floor its throat cut with the glass through which it had come. The only Surmise is that the chicken had become so frightened at something that it had lost its head and dashed into the window without real ly knowing where it was going The force with which it struck may be in a measure realized when it Is told that the glass which il crashed through Is q heavy plate glass, five feet square. An almost similar experience was had a couple of weeks ago, when a duck, seemingly as badly rattled as the chicken, drove against the flag pole of the hotel and dropped Guivering and dying upon the roof.

OBJECTS TO ONE NIGHT STANDS
Sarah Bernllardt objects to one nf,rht ii,

Sarah sBernhardt objects to one night stands, and so StrenuouSly that most of those upon the route list of her com ing tour with Constant Coquelin have been stricken off. The French actress cannot abide the hurry and hustle in- cident to stops of q few hours in country villages, even though the in habitants thereofsare clamerous to see her and It her own price.
 Three towns thus disappointed are Los Angeles, Cal, and San Antonia and Galveston, Tex, in each of which one performance had been advertised. They were to have been breaks in the long ride from New Orleans to San Francisco, but Mime Bernhardt has sgnified that she does not care to leave her car between the Crescent City and the Golden Gate, and prefers to tack the cancelled dates to the weeks en- gagement ill the latter place. As her desires during the American trip are practically law, in so far as the con- tract held by Maurice Grau will allow, plans have been altered to suit her.
 That her word is something quite final was illustrated early in the week over q difference of opinion between herself and Coquelin as to the manner in which the calcium was to shed it's lustre an the stage. She gave difec- tions that the lights should be ar ranged in a certain scene in which she and Coquelin appeared together. He went to the electrician With contrary directions. not, however. with any in- tcntion of coUntermanding her orders. He did not know she had spoken.
 The man at the switchboard did not speak of his previous instructions, but promised to obey the actor. Then he told his troubles to the stage director, who in turn went to the manager. When the latter heard how matters stood he said:
 What Mime ~Bernhardt says goes..''
 Ii would be mistake. however, to give the impression that there is any strain in the relations of the joint stars. -.....
 For all this it is known that when the tour begins Bernhardt wants car all to herself Her contract with Maurice Grau stipulates that there shall be one private Pullman divided between her and Conquelin; one fur nished with double set Of conveniences so that each may have absolute privacy.
 Mime Bernhards objection to this plan is that it will not allow her enough room. She desires accessibili ty to as many of her 116 trunks as as many can be at her command with q whole car as there would be if she had only half.
 If she has one undivided she will have to pay for it herself-the man. agement will not go beyond the stipu lations of the bond. It is said she has d representative trying to strike bar gain for the private car of a well known railroad official.

COULDN'T BEAT HIM.

'I think there should be law against publishing lies,' said the inno- cent faced man. as he laid down his paper and heayed a sigh.
 Have you discovered lie?" was asked by fellow passenger.
 I'm sure of it. \ man who was on a steamer when she was wrecked claims to have swum a distance of forty miles to land. We know that is physical impossibility. I myself was once on a steamer lost off coast and at that time I was called a cham pion swimmer. I swan and swan and swan. but | didn't swim no forty miles. l could not have done it."

The Waterbury board of health is trying to have enacted an ordinance for the suppression of unnecessary noises. Under the terms of the meas Ure the blowing of steam whistles, eX- cept on locomotives. the ringing (con- trary to a requesU of church or tower bells within 800 yards of place where a person is sick, the sounding of gongs except on trolley cars, singing in the streets, shouting by itinerant vendors and the use of vehicles with wheels on loose aXleS. are all made penal of lenses. Why don't the noise-suppress- ors include in their list the miikmen who rattle and bang the cans at 3 q. III. ?-Hartford Post
 The milkman is not in the same class with some of the other noise-makers. He is a necessary evil if you will call him such. How would the Post man like to go without cream or milk in the noise made by the milkmen is greatly exaggerated, and then again al the hour in which they are going their rounds every sound made comes with double force on the ears of the restless sleeper Give the milkman q show, We say.
