Second Game.
ROW BETWEEN PLAYERS.

st. Louis, August 14-The weather
was so warm today that the sun literally
baked the field. The home team scored
an easy victory. A feature was a bout be-
tween WoIvert0n and McGann at first.
The Quaker hit to Young and was out
easily, but he continued running and
spiked McGann as he crossed the bag.
The latter turned around and throwing
the ball caught Wolverton squarely on
the back of the head. The latter staggered
and appeared to be all out. He recovered
quickly, however, and attacked McGann.
They were mixing it up at a lively rate
when the police interfered. Score:

The Shirt.WaiSt Man.

If those young men who wish to
90 about in what they call shirt
waists will initiate, as far as may be,
the really attractive characteristics
of the feminine garment which goes
by that name, there need be no grave
objection to their indulging this hot
weather fancy. 1t must be remcm-
bercd, first of all, that a woman's
shirt-waist bears no relation to a
man in his shirt sleeves. 1t is a
complete costume, nicely adjusted
and thoroughly presentable. 1t is
designed to be worn conspiciously
and MOTTO be covered by another
garment.
On the other hand, when a man
takes off his coat his dress is likely
to display imperfectlons. The ex-
hibition of suspenders is of course
intolcrablc. \ shirt intended to be
worn with a waistcoat, open at the
back, and displaying devices for
holding the necktic and similar I'M
attractive accessories, the suspendel
buttons visible at the waist; the
bullying hip pockets and various
other details of dress that were meant
to be concealed, make such a COS
tune entirely unlovely.
If a man is to be seen without {
coat, he should be dressed accord
ingly, with loose, unstarched shir
of suitable material and a we'll ad
justed belt concealing entirely the
junCture of the trousers with the
shirt and holding them securely il
place. \ summer shirt that is right
ly made, and clean and fresh, is {
rather ornamental garment, ant
when all the details of the costume
are nicely adjusted to this main fea
ture of the design, the man ma,
walk abroad in his shirt-waist with
out shame.
The danger in opening the doc
to the shirt waist man is the difficulty
of closing it on the man in his shir
sleeves. The latter should be mad
to put on his coat; but if he wer
sensitive to nice distinctions he woul,
not appear in public without it. y
he is not, he would probably regar'
such distinctions as infringing hi
personal liberty. TO meet this W
are driven back upon the rule of tn
coat. And after all, summer sac
need not be an intolerable burden

The situation at Cape Nome Is

people are now crowded on mar
row strip OF beach in that inhospita
bic climate, threatened with typhoiG!
fever and smallpox. The claims fol-
miles along the shore arc taken, and

Even those who took in great stores

with view to trade, find the stock
SO large and competition SO keen
that they cannot sell their goods

How cheap life is held in some OF

an American officer lately returned
from the Philippines. The Island
of Mindanao is governed by Datto
Mandy, most intelligent and courtly
of Moros, who more than once has
visited Madrid, and wears several
Spanish decorations. He is abso-
lutte ruler of ten thousand warriors,
with unquestioned powers of life and
death. \ newspaper correspondent
wished to take Mandy's picture in
the characteristic pose of striking
down an enemy. 1t was difficult to
explain this wish without an inter
prefer, but at last a smile broke
over the despot's face, and he sent
for his great sword and a servant.
But for the sudden interposition of
the American officer, the mans skull
would have been actually cloven in
his sovercign's willingness to crafty

men in Montreal, \. G.. Ingalls,, a

which water can be used so as to eff
feet an immense saving in the con-
sumption of coal. In fact it may be
said that water practically is the fuel
and coal is merely an auxiliary.
The method is such that thin
spray of water is spread over a coal
flame in such a way, and with such
auxiliaries, that the heat of the
flame is wonderfully augmented.
The full details of the secret are not
yet made public by the inventor.
The discovery, it is alleged, can be
applied to gas and other flames.

NUMBERS OF FARMS DESERTED.
Situation in the Delta Regarded as
Deplorable.

While the crops in some sections of
Georgia, particularly about Americas,
are good, the situation in other por-
tions of the cotton belt are deplorable.
Mr.. @. w. Lamar, large cotton buyer
and exporter, has just returned to
Americus from an extended trip west,
which took him through the Mississip-
pi delta and Arkansas.
Mr.. Lamar says the conditions ex-
listing out there are the worst he ever
saw.
Whole sections of magnificent low
lands. which usually produce the finest
corn and cotton, are now entirely de-
serted, the farmers having abandoned
their crops and moved away. One
plantation working 158 plows did not
have human being upon it, even the
last negro having gone away.
Floods haYe ruined vast areas of cot
ton, Mr.. Lamar says, and the farms
are abandoned for this year, at least.
Under such conditions it would not
bs surprising if cotton brought the
highest prices in years when the next
crop is marketed. There will be nc
"surplus" and the demand for new
cotton will be great from the begin
ming of the season.
