Base Ball and Excursion.

Base Ball and Excursion.
 The excursion to San Carlos last Sunday proved grand success. The attendance was surprise to many as there was not a vacant seat, although three coaches were pressed into ser vice. At least two hundred and fifty persons, not including the ball tossers and band boys, attended It was a cosmopolitan crowd of all shades and nationalities. It comprised old, mid dle aged and young people, in fact people from all stages of life, and a more genial and pleasant crowd could not have been gathered together.
 The train left Glooe at 9.l5 and ar rived at san Carlos at 10;30, and from the time of departure to the time San Carlos was reached. bedlam turned loose. the band playing several selec- tlons, while the remainder of the time was usurped by the rooters, and cow bells and tin horns playing promin- ent part
 The eXcursioniSts were met at the depot by the soidier boys, and all the available vehic,es were pressed into service to carry the eXcursloniSts uo the post. The reception tendered the visitors could not have been better, plenty to eat and drink for all aud no one Was overlooked. Alter strolling around the post for some time, dinner was announced and after all had their hunger satisfied, they went to the ball ground, where the game was called at o'clock p. m
 The Globe boys went to the bat first and each had a look upon hls face which meant that he intended swat the ball, and as pretty game of bali as any one would wish to see began. The game was exciting from start to finish, but the Globe boys hit tle ball. and as hits count runs, they took the Maroons down the line to the tune of toe.
 Grey, Globes southpaw, pitched for three innings. but was wild, and was relieved by Birch. That two hundred pounds Of bone and muscle was at his best, and the way he twisted them around was q surprise to all Green was in the box for the MaroonS and held the Globe boys down to few scattering hits Two home runs were made, by Grey for the Athletics, and l the boy from Donegal, Hickey for the | MaroonS. Bob Williams otfciated as umpire, and only enc decision of his was questioned. and one which the | majority of the crowd thought should | have been in favor of the runner. That veteran batter and best all ! around ball player in the west, Frank i Mercy, went to the bat first, and as ! Frank has q record of not having | been famed out since he landed in ! A ArizOna, and as he has played in this | territory for the past four years, he I did not go to San Carlos to lose his reputation. but gently swated the ball and told the rest of them to follow suit. which they invariably did
 Lieut.. Dichmann caught for the Ma rooms, and demonstrated to the ylSi- tors, besides being the prince Of en- tertainers, he was something of q backstop, and his throwing to second was of iirst.class order. Delaney caught for the Athletics and the lrishman's wing could not have been
 better, as he had the Carlos boys standing close to the bag. The fol ! lowing is the score:

 Two base -Dichmann and Hickey.
 Three base hit Ballard.
 Home Hickey and Grey.
 Hit by pitcher Mercy and Brennan. Double play Mudgett to Dichmann to Cline.
 Time of game two hours. Umpire, Williams.
 NOTES.
 Who said the Globe kids could not play b,Il. A few more like Moreno, Will Mercy and Will Rose and the Herald pcnnant would surely come to Globe. Any ball team that plays San Car los must keep the ball on the ground, as long drives count for nothing when Hickey, Brennan and Ryno are in the field. ! Breitweiser of San Carlos is without doubt the best second baseman in the west. Brett. as he is familiarly called, can play with the best of them. i Lieut.. Dichman will be remembered by the Globe people for the courtesy extended those attending the ball game, and he certainly deserves praise for the efficient manner in which he entertained the crowd that attended.

cept, Of course, the heather, the gorse
and the bracken, which are too hardy
and too ready AZ multiplication to be
eXterminated. They like our own
mountain ,alg-., s"aat-fera, our
dicksonia and eagle-fern Cthe same as
the bracken Of Scotland, though less in
stature), survive ill-usage. But many
years ago Lucy Smith (see Mr.. Mer-
RAMS beautiful memoirs of William
and Lucy Smith') lamented the de-
struction of the daintiest forest flow
ers in Scotland and northern England
at the hands of cts who thought
they loved them because they de.
stroyed them.
Of course there are flowers that may
be plucked literally without stint
such as the golden rods and asters
the iron-weed and the yeryain, thu
ox-eye daisies and the black-eyel
Susans, the evening primroses, the ST
johns worts, the clovers, the loose
srifes, the milkweeds, the joopye, the
hawkweeds, the lettuces and Other
hardy mryiads. But the anemones anG
spring beauties, the poiygaIas, the
arbutus, the spring yellow lily, the
columbine, the pyrOlas and pipsisse-
was, the cardinal flower and the
fringed gentian,- loyeiest of the
floral realm,-such vanish before the
vandalism of those who ignorantly
think they love flowers. 1t is a trait
Of human natuTe,-love is but a sym
Dol of sacrifice, commonly the sacrifice
of Others
The lack Of a true sense of love and
reverence for nature is we'll eXempli-
fed by the conduct of people who visit
Mountain park in Mount Tom. There
is a shoot Of rubbish down the face OF
one of the precipices on the east side
from the house on the peak that tes-
titles to this. And all through the re-
gicn round about luncheon baskets or
boxes or paper packages with deCaying
remains of food are strewn. One
writes to the Boston Transcript about
the evidence of this maltreatment of
nature near Boston. He says
The same destructive love of ma
ture is hown every week by the many
young people who flock up the Charles
river in canoes and go merrily home,
leaving the beautiful sodgy and flow
cry banks trampIod and Uttered with
papers and refuse OF luncheons, and
the pretty river full of loating bot
ties, boxes and dead water lilies a
grievous sight for those who come
after them
This is the story everywhere. A Wis
itor to st. John, the picturesque sea
port of New Brunswick, some years
ago went up the hill to its principal
summer park. The naturally beauti-
full brook which flows from the resort
was crammed with human refuse, not
only such things as are mentioned, but
matters much more offensive. The
new education must hurry to catch up
with and overcome this love of ma
ture" which it has fostered, while
leaving uncultivated the sense OF
reverence and honor.

also received an invitation, and he re
peated to the squire some little on dts
he had heard as to Captain Ayrton $
character which did not please the
good old man.
"Handsome Is he and a prolessed
lady-killer-fond Of play? Ali then
my girls shall not 90 to the picnic, or
visit Ling until he has left it. A CO.
quette is bad enough; but a male ilirt-
bah!" cried the squire.
But Sybil was 50 anxious to go, she
longed SO much for the gayety, he
could not withstand her pleading face
He said, at last, that IL Sir Rupert
would escort them, they might accept
the invitation; and in after years he
wished he had died before saying it.
1t was not so easy to persuade Sir
Rupert With the gentle, unerrng in
stnct Of love, he saw it was the young
soldier that attracted Sybil, and not
Birley Woods.

The future senator looked the man
straight in the eye, and coolIy replied
that he did not intend to make a

ued to look as the man fourished the
pistol and jumped up and down,
threatening every minute to shoot.
Finally the man happened to hit the
pistol against his boot as he jumped
in his rage. 1t went off, and the ball
struck his leg filing the boot with

THE LOVE OF NATURE
THAT EXISTS WITHOUT REVER-
ENCE OR HONOR.
DON'T PLUCK WILD FLOWERS
Enjoy Them by Observation and
Leave Them for Others to Do the
Same Extinction OF the Sweet Ar
butus by VandaI Hands in Many
Localities.

A ChautauQua lecturer, the other
day, enlarged upon a theme very ia
miliar to The Republicans readers,
and whose lesson in these. many years
ought to have been borne in upon the
cOnsciences; we mean the WantOn
picking of flowers, says the Springfield
Republican. The speaker at Chautau-
qua recognized advance toward true
respect for the wild growth of field
and forest, through the far higher con
ception of the nature of education,
which has come into acceptance.
Teachers no longer teach thoughtless
sentimentaIism, but thinking senti-
ment,-a distinction with great diff
ference. The nature study OF the
present, though it has it's bad phases,
is passing out of them; the yiyisection
stage is disappearing, and reverence
for nature is taking root in the Child's
mind, just as fast as the teachers
themselves learn it. This develops
from the study of the child, which is
now a part of education, a study which
may become mechanical or morbid,
but in its essence is moral, discovering
what effects are produced on the
child's mind and in the light Of such
discoveries guiding the teaching the
child receives Thus, said the
speaker

One may easily follow out this prin-
ciple into life, and see how it directly
nurtures the innate selfshness of man
an evil legacy from savagcry, which
leads a man to regard his wife as his
property, and in common walks of life
makes him call her my woman" and
which causes parents to hold the same
view of their children Respect for
the individual is the outcome of evolu-
ton, and that respect is due in its de
gree to the other living creatures OF
God-tho horse, the dog, the OK, the
cat; and it is but just step forward
to respect the flower.

In the Fourth ward there was NOT
much excitement comparatively speak,
ing. There was very humorous inci-S
dent late in the afternoon, when the
Oseeola club marched down the mid.
die of Seventeenth street, fourteena
strong, led by President Cline. whos
rode behind an old gray horse, in ~
buggy decorated with an American
flag. An officer brought up the rear
of the procession. "A bunch OF Clem-s
ans votes" was the remark of a by@s
stander. Il
In the Fifth and Sixth wards the in-f
cidentS of other wards were duplicat-
ed, and the contest over candidates.
for Council was very spirited Thei
workers" made general election look.
like thirty cents, TO borrow a cur
rent slang phrase. In the Sixth the
votes were counties by tifties, and th0i
results were bulletined and circulateds
throughout the city. 1t was a suppos-
ed Bennett stronghold, and the earlyi
bulletins were very gratifying to sheI
friends of Capt. Clemans. Anothert
great surprise here was the strength
of Wolfe. The announcement that he
was running about even with OBrienl
in the Sixth and Third, the only wards
in which the ballots were being count
ed, was very discouraging TO the pres-4
ent clerk. who almost despaired OF
gaining enough in the remaining wards
to offset the almost certain majorityl
for Wolfe on the Island.
Island citizens are usually decorouS
at election times, and they were so yes
terday, but there were many workers
at both voting places, and a lively
contest for places on the Council tick
ct In the Eighth, the interest in thei
election was largely centered In the
fight between Miller and Marschnerl
for the First Branch. and friends OIL
the candidates openly threatened tol
support the Democratic nominee irl
their respective favorites were defeat
ed.
The City Building was practically
deserted during the day. Every mem
Der of the police force was working
overtime. and when a Register re-
porter called at headquarters in the
afternoon a. citizen was on duty. who
volunteered the information that mono
of the officers were about. Friends or
Thos. OBrien, Jr., were very indig-
nant. alleging that Republicans were
circulating maliciously false state
ments against him, with view TO
encompassing his defeat. Last nights
there was a big crowd In the First
Branch Council chamber, whore the
returns were received and tabulated.
