POINTER FOR JOHNSON.

President Johnson must preserve or
der in the American League games or
get off the pedestal on which the
reformers have placed him. The ex-
! National League stars are the chief Of
tenders so far, and they should be
handled without gloves. Clark Grit
fifth, manager, captain, pitcher and
some say, one CT the owners OF the
| Chicago club, on May 2 made an at
| tempt to assault Umpire Connolly for
awarding the game to Detroit on ac-
count of the dilatory tactics of Griffith
and his players. Taking their cue
from Griffith, the spectators made a
rush for the umpire and it required
the players united efforts to protect
him from the mob. Here Is the Her
ald-Record's account Of the incident:
Griffith, who was twice benched
in the series. rushed forward with
azgry protests, his right arm raised
threateningly. Some of the spectators
near said Griffith struck Connolly, but
the latter said after the game that he
had not been hit Isbell and other
players rushed in, Issy, grabbing his
manager, and the residue forming
about the umpire. If 'Griff' had any
hostile intentions, he changed quickly
when he saw the temper of the crowd,
and with the others turned toward the
shouting throng, among whom a few
irresponsible persons were yelling,
Mob him! Lynch the umpirel' and
warned them against violence The
policemen on the grounds were by this
time on the scene and all danger Of
violence quickly subsidized After the
game Comiskey and a majority of the
fair-minded spectators, admitted that
Connolly's decision was right and no
protest will be made
Griffith has since been ordered from
the grounds at Milwaukee. The public
wants to know what pull this kicker
has with President Johnson who has
hitherto been proof against influence

FRED TARAL IN VIENNA.

Fred Taral the famous American
jockey, is said to have become the lion
of the hour in Vienna, Austria. A To-
cal paper says of him: "Taral has be-
come the acknowledged pet of the
Vienna public. This excellent Ameri-
can jockey is without doubt the best
rider who has yet been seen here. On
Saturday and Sunday last he accom-
plished the extraordinary feat of win
ming not less than five victories, each
one being of the sensational order. Up
TO the present he has been in the sad
die in fourteen events, out of which
he had won seven times, brilliant
record that stands unequalled in the
history of Austrian turf annals"

A GLORIOUS SIGHT.
Fields of Wheat In which the Shocks
Were So Thick 1t Was Almost Inn
possible to Drive Between



To the Editor: A gentleman from
Duluth made trip through a portion
of Western Canada last summer and
writing of what he saw, says:
Wheat, for instance, will average
twenty-five or thirty bushels to the
acre. | saw shocks so thick in the
field that it would be almost impossi-
BILE to drive between them. Winters,
it is said are longer than near Du-
luth, but the Japan current, warm
chinook winds and dry atmosphere
make the winters comparatively mild"
Thousands Of such testimonials are
to be had from settlers who have taken
advantage of the low-priced lands of
Western Canada. During the present
year new districts will be opened up
in the Saskatchewan valley and ad-
vantage should be taken of this at
once. Information can be had from
any agent OF the government, whose
advertisement appears elsewhere in
your columns. Yours truly,

WONDERFUL CErSERs
OF YELLOWSTONE PARK.

No Other Region In the world Abounds In
Such Variety of Attractions.
The most wonderful scenery In the
world Is in Yellowstone National Park,
the great natural curiosity shop of the
universe. Nowhere else, within equal
bounds. are found so many natural
wonders grouped, almost MS IL by de-
sign, for the special convenience of
aiRht-seers The wonders of the Alps
and the Htmalayas, could they be gath
cred together and compressed into an
equal space, could not hope to rival In
grandeur, in variety nor in number,
che attractions OF the Yellowstone.
Were all the attractions except the
geysers removed, the region would
still be famed world wide, drawing
nature lovers from all countries to
witness the exhibitions of unequalled
power of these matchless giants,
which, with a roar that may be heard
long distances, spout huge columns Of
seething water high into the air, sus-
tanning them there for varying lengths
of time. Old Faithful, with a regular
ity that begot its name, at intervals of
65 to rs minutes, sends up a huge col
umn of water $50 feet into the air, re-
naming active four minutes. Giant,
with deafeuing roar, spouts $50 feet
every third day for 90 minutes, while
Giantess, at longer intervals and with
slightly less power, main tains activity
for twelve hours at a stretch. Many
others, at intervals ranging from FIVE
minutes to several days, spout water
to varying heights, remaing active
for periods ranging from one second to
an hour or more. In all, there are
thirty-three members of this ter
eating Geyser family of sufficient
Importance to deserve special mention.
Twenty-eiRht OF these are in Upper

their rainbow tints, spouting at
once, the scene ia indescribable Other
