The superb game that Frank Sparks pitched for Milwaukee last week serves better than anything else could to show the development of a ball play CT.
 It was in 1895 that Frank Sparks CT will the first game that he appear ed in be forgotten. Out at the Mont gomery ball park the story had spread that a new pitcher, a college wonder, would be in the box for the locals, and all was expectancy in the grand stand and bleachers. When play was called, a slim. delicate-looking boy walked out to the box. The locals were out, and the marvellous costume the stranger sported caused several dyed in the wool rooters to have severe attack of heart-failure. He had on the regula- tion cap, shirt and trousers but in place of serviceable baseball shoes he had on a pair of patent-leathers with such narrow. pointed toes that ones feet actually ached in sympathy. This was not the most remarkable part of the get-up however. On very hot days a pitcher sometimes knots a lowell in his belt. This wonder" had tied in the jauntiest of bow-knots around his waist 8 delicate, pale blue silk scarf. Such thing as the average girl at a college commencement would have gone crazy over in those days
 Sparks had been doing the slab act on the team at Howard College and suppose 1t was the proper-Gstunt there to be as heavy swell as possi- ble.
 We'll. he started in to pitch. Nash vile, I think, was the team, and how they did swat him. The punishment that those old leaguers gave the boy was something pitiful. He persevered, however until he pitched some pretty fair games for Montgomery that sum mer. and the next season made fair showing on his experience here.
 Last summer he was in some minor league up East and was one of the best pitchers they had. Last week in the American League he let the Philadel- phia club down with three scattering hits.
 That homerun hit of Beulow's that won the 3-2 game for Detroit against Philadelphia in the American League last Wednesday, brings to mind an- other home run hit that won game in
 It was on June 11th, 1895, and Nash vile opened a series of three games with the locals at the ball park. Nash vile had a team of terrific hitters and all round fast ball players in those days with the pitching department composed of such slab artists as "Slow Pete" Daniels, Moran and Hermann not the tuggler but magician in the box all the same.

His Debut at the Montgomery Park Was Not Auspicious-How Mike Frost Closed an
 Exciting Game.

The day is hot the bleechers screech.
 Play ball. The battles on and it's a beach,
 Play bali. From many throats doth come yell, The flemish racket loud to swell, The umpire true remarks, "Oh. well"
 Play ball. The girlies clap their little hands.
 Play ball The pitcher like statue stands,
 Piay ball. He is the one who e'er doth please. Those lolling back in grandstand ease, He knows he is the whole big cheese,
 Play ball. The home nine wins. oh, happy day.
 Play ball. The umpire's lost his speech-the Jay,
 Play ball. Mid dust and dirt they homeward wend And yell with whoop doth sweetly blend The game has reached joyful end,
 Play bail. What game is there upon this earth,
 Play ball. Provokes such 'thusiastic mirth,
 Play ball. And specially when home doth win, And everlastingly doth skin, All other ones that wander in,

The game yesterday is the beginning of the City League. and from now on there will be games at the Ball Park at least once and sometimes several times week. While the game yes terday was enjoyable 1t is hard to un- derstand why there were no coachers on the lines.

 Not only do both teams donate their services free for this occasion, but all the players have worked hard selling tickets, which gives promise of being a great success, and a neat sum should be turned over to the Hospital Fund Committee, which will have charge of the Park for this day.

The first production of Verdi's op-
era "Othello" took place at Milan, and
all the~prominent musical critics of Eu-
rope foregathered in the. Cathedral
City in honor Of the occasion. Among
them was a Partisan journalist of wide
reputation and admitted authority in
the musical world. His first care on
his arrival in Milan was to seek out
Verdi and ask to be allowed to be pres
ent at one of the final rehearsals.
The composer received him with ex-
treme %politeness, but replied that he
could not possibly grant his request,
as he had decided that the ~rehearsals
were to be absolutely private, and he
could not make an exception in the IA
vor Of any n journalist, however dis
tinguished.
The Paris critic, far from pleased at
this answer, protested that in these
circumstances his account Of the opera
might not be all he should like 1t to
be. you see," he explained to the
composer, who affected not quite to
understand, Il shall have to telegraph
my article the same evening. 1t will
necessarily be hastily written, and the
impression in Paris the next day may
suffer in consequence"
But Verdi was more than equal to
the occasion. my dear sir" he made
answer, II do not write for the next
day." The critic bowed himself out.

ately illustrating the Pan-American
Exposition, the building and grounds.

OF r
Some Simple Methods of Relieving the
Pain Incident to a Burn. :

Burns may he ordinary, but they lose
none >f their smart because of the ease
with v hich they are acquired Some
persons seem to have a perfect genius
for getting burned. If they strike a
match. it breaks and .scorches them,
while a. visit to the kitchen ends in a
burn from the oven or a scald from hot
thing to do with a burn is to get it
away from all contact with the air and
to do this with all possible haste.
The necessary articles for the treat
ment should be on hand, and they are
baking soda-not washing soda, notice
fresh fat of some sort and several
thicknesses of cotton cloth. 1t is an
excellent plan to have a bottle of car
ron oil ready for such emergencies.
Carron oil is made by shaking together
equal parts of linseed oil and limewa-
ter. If the skin is broken over the
burn, use the oil without the soda.
otherwise mOiSten the soda with olive
oil or sweet oil OF ever lard or cold
cream and apply it. Over this wrap
the cloth. Cotton batting is often used
for covering the burn and keeping out
the air, but it is not to be recommend
ed. 1t is not a good plan to use flour,
busting it over a burn, for it frequently
hardens and Is Of little comfort.
One of the simplest measures for a
superficial burn is to apply the white of
n egg with a soft piece of old muslin,
adding more as it dries.

IMPORTANT SCIENTIFIC DIS
COVERY.

OR YOUR HAIR WILL FALL OUT
TILL YOU BECOME BALD. ,
Modern science has discovered that
dandruff is caused by a germ that digs
UP the scalp in scales, as it burrows
down to the roots of the hairs vital
ity, causing falling hair, and ulti-
mately, badness. After Prof. Unna,
of Hamburg, Germany, discovered the
dandruf germ, all efforts to find a
remedy failed until the great labora-
tory discovery was made which re-
suited in Newbro's Herpicide. 1t
alone of all hair preparations kills the
dandruf germ. Without dandruf,
hair grows luxuriantly. Destroy the
cause, you remove the effect"

REVIEW TABLE.

Jamieson-Higgins Co., Chicago, Ian-
nounce that on March 10Th they will
issue probably one of the most sensa-
tional novels of the year. The title
Of the story is 1.-THE Warmers 2 andSthe
author is Mrs. Gertrude Potter Dam
iels, the daughter Of the steel mag
nate, Orrin w. Potter, and sister of
Miss Margaret Horton Potter, who,
last year, leaped into fame or account
of her book "Uncanonized." The story
concerns the working classes Of Chi
cago, and is a direct attack on trusts.
The author seems, to forget that she
herself derives her support directly
from the sources which she attacks.
The hero is a newsboy and Mrs. Dan
iels' first sweetheart was a youth who
delivered papers at her home. The
plot is thrilling, exciting. The work
shows marked evidences of originality
and the publishers are 80 confident
of an immense sale that the first edi-
ton will consist Of 10000 copies.
Perhaps the most noteworthy article
in The Literary Era for March is the
very brilliant paper, '"The Paganism
of Kipling," by Charles Johnston,
whose name is attracting attention
from his writings in 'The North AmA
erican Review" and elsewhere. MI.
Johnston, although. for several years
a resident OF New York, is a o of a
member of the English parliament
from Belfast, and was formerly in the
Bengal Civil Service. "The Pagan
ism of Kipling," is an acute and dis
eliminating analysis of. the reasons
for the strength and vividness of the
impression Kipling makes upon his
readers, which is found in the fact that
that he appeals with immense artistic
effect to the animal senses-to the eye
through his color-painting, to the ear,
to the sense of smell and to the inter
est in things in motion. Mr.. John
ston puts in words the impression
many of Mr.. Kipling's admirers have
felt without quite realizing why his
paper will be of especial interest to
writer's.
