RIGHT OFF THE BAT.

Rube Waddell, of Pittsburg, seems unable to
strike the gait which made him the winning
pitcher of the league last year. and so far has
lost more games than any twirler on the Pirate
staff.
The game which was to take place at Alumni
park, near Carbondale yesterday afternoon be.
tween the Scranton and Wilkes Bhrre teams was
prevented by rain, This afternoon the two mines
will play the third game of the present series
in Wilkes-Barre, Terry McGovern umpring and
tomorrow the old rivals will play in this city,
with the same little pugilist umpiring the game
New Works record of three successive shut
outs is a remarkable one and the Gotham fans
are now more than proud of the showing their
team is making. The signing of Elmer Smith
has strengthened the club wonderfully, as the
ex'Red is batting strongly and fielding finely.
His joining the team moreover has allowed Mer-
Ger TO be brought in from the outheld and given
his turn in the box. and that the former Senator
is able TO make strong showing on the rubber
was evidenced in his FIRST game when he scored
a shut-out.

A few of our enterprising young men

GERMANS FINE CITIZENS.
They Make UP a Tent hof Our Popu-
lation.
J. G. Speed, in Ainslee's.

j. G. Speed, in Alnslees
The Germans have come to America
in greater numbers than the Irish and
their influence has been just as great
in various ways, though 1t may not
seem so apparent. According to the
last census. we had with us 2,7S4 1874
Germans, and only 1871 500 Irish. 1
do not myself believe this a fair show
ing, as the census takers do not ask
a man his nationality, but inquire
where he was born. And we find that
there are 909,092 English in America,
nearly half as many as Irish. That
seems incredible. I am inclined to be-
lieVe that at least one-third of these
English are Irish born in England
maybe, half of them. But they are
set down as English. If, however, all
were Irish, still, the Germans woold
outnumber them. Industrially, the
Germans have been of incalculable
benefit. They have made our best
tradesmen in certain kinds, they sup
ply a great number of skilled artisans,
they have introduced and almost mon
opolize many manufactures-nota
beer-and they are famous farmers
and gardeners. Moreover, they al
most invariably bring with them a
satisfactory quality of knowledge, and
no class encourages more literally the
diffusion of learning in it's elemental
forms. To them in large measure we
owe the fact that We are a music low
ing people, and the most generous and
appreciative patrons of music in the
world. Jean de Reszke, If he sings in
Berlin, gets two hundred dollars a
performance; II he sings here he gets
at least a thousand. Wealth and
taste combine to make this great re-
ward. The Germans directed and en-
couraged the taste, while assisting
greatly in creating the wealth.
Politically, If the Germans held to-
gether as tenaciously as the Irish do,
they would be wonderfully powerful.
At this time We have something like
three million native Germans in the
United States. and at least four mill
lions more of German parentage. II
these held together they would be an

immense power. But they do not al.
ways combine, though politicians very
frequently attempt to bring up ques-
tions which will cause them to do this.
Nor do they settle, as some other north
of Europe nationalities do, in commu-
mites composed mainly of themselves.
They appear to go where there is
the best opportunity for each in the
field he chooses. For instance, in the
North Atlantic division of the country
We have S9S,321 Germans: in the South
Atlantic, S1,i49; in the North Central,
1,570,112; in the South Central, 114,-
645 in the Western, 120,367 Here we
see that the great bulk of them is in
two divisions. This is not because
they flock together, but because the
great cities happen to be in those divi-
sions, and in these cities the Germans
find the opportunities they came to
this country to seek. In New York
state, on account of the several great
cities-New York, Brooklyn, Syracuse,
Buffalo and Rochester-.there are 1885,
COZ Germans. In New Jersey, with
cities such as Newark, Jersey City
and HoDoken, there are 106,1S1 in
Pennsylvania, with Philadelphia and
Pittsburg, 230,561; in Ohio. with Cincin-
natl and Cleveland. 235,66S in Illi-

The big bond ordinance to provide
$273, ,205S0 for the citys share of the
sewers contemplated or under way,
passed third reading in common coun-
Gil last night, and is now ready for the
consideration of the selectmen 1t
passed without discussion and re-
ceived unanimous approval.
The resolution providing for the re-
moval of one of the two fire companies
at Providence square to new quarters
at Bulls Head, was favorably reported
by the fire department committee and
adopted.
Communications were reported from
City Solicitor Vosburg, approving the
claim Of L. Tyler Connolly; expressing
the opinion that the $1,000 claimed by
James Flynn was too high; that the
claim of Philip CARRIER was a legal one,
and that the city was liable to Con-
tractors Williams Il Phillips for the
sewer assessments against the prop
critics of S. Il. Mott, J. A. Mears and
c. II. Welles, which the owners sue
cessfully avoided on technicalties. An
ordinance providing for reimbursing
the contractors passed first and second
readings.
The resolution for the removal of the
toll-gate from Nay Aug park was con
Cured in. New measures were intro
duced as follows:
NJ. V. Morris-Ordinance providing for flag
stone sidewalks Washington avenue, between
Electric and Fairfield avenues Referred. Reso.
| luton looking to the opening OF Church ave.
nue., between Theodore and Clearvew streets.
| Adopted.
Mr.. Nageli-Resolution for fire hydrant at
| the corner of Clay avenue and Myrtle street.
Mr.. Galvin-Resolution for a fire hydrant at
| the corner of Iemlock street and Crown ave-
| nue., and another at the corner of River street
and Crown avenue. Adopted.
| Mr.. Coleman-A resolution transferring $50
! from the Sixteenth ward appropriation to pay
for the pavement in front of Mrs John Coar'G
property. Adopted.
The ordinance providing for flag
stone sidewalks on Colfax and Wheeler
avenues was favorably reported by
Mr.. Keller for the streets and bridges
committee. He explained that the res
ident property owners wanted the side
walks, but those who had purchased
land there for speculative purposes
opposed it,
The following ordinances passed
first and second readings: Providing
for telephone IN the Cumberland
hose house; providing for the pay
ment of clerk hire in the city con-
| troller's office.
The ordinance accepting the Jones
g. Rinsland plot as a part of the city
and establishing the grade of the
streets thereon passed third reading.
Mr.. Keller opposed the ordinances
for phones in the Cumberland and
Crystal hose houses, because the new
telephone company will soon be in
operation and will give the city free
phones, and further because the APP
preparation from which the money is
to be taken has been exhausted.
Messrs. Grier and Coleman stoutly
championed the measures and were
supported by all but two or three
members.
