days Nashville fully explains his
decision:

troversy has arisen between Erin and Big
Sandy concerning the game OF ball played
at Big Sandy last Thursday
As umpire Of that game | now feel it
my duty to settle tie controversy. In
order to he hrelI viii say that in the sixth
inning Big Sandy was at bat Two men
were ont and a runner on second base.
Jones hit line drye to center and tie
runner on second advanced 10 third, and
seeing that the ball could not be felded
speedily enough to catch him, continued
on home and crossed the plate. In the
meantime Jones had reached first aud see
lug the right fielder throw the ball to sec
ond baseman Rauscher, and he il turn to
Catcher Shofner to catch Lindsey at the
plate, proceeded to second, and Sholner
seeing he could not catch Lindsey, return
ed the bah to second in time to retire
Jones With the idea that twoncn were
down, Ireiused to allow Lindsey to score,
and this decision was protested by Cap
tain Caraway Of the locals. | refused to
change my decision, and the game corr
tinued to the fourteenth inning, when

THE RIGHT KIND or A MAN TO LOVE

Geo. T. Angel, editor Of Dumb
Animals, has the following to say,
which is good advice and will be
endorsed by every one;
"Love a young man who loves
his mother SO fondly that for her
sake he is chivalrous to other
women. Love a young man who
is pure hearted. Love a young
man who believes there is a nobler
career in life than to be a good
dancer or a successful society man.
Love a young man who is not
ashamed Of tears for others sor-
rows, or a tender song or for a
beautiful thought. Love young
man who can not be laughed out
of duty"

EASTMAN TRIAL GOES ON
Aged Mother of Grogan Gives Tes-
timony Regarding Relations
of Two Men.

Cambridge, Mass, May 2.-Although
a greater portion of the proceedings
at the Eastman murder trial today
was taken up in unimportant expert
testimony, there were one or two wit
nesses who proved to be important,
while the day ended with an effort
on the part Of the attorney general to
obtain the admission of the testimony
of the accused, which he made before
the grand jury which indicted him.
The court withheld it's decision. The
most important witness of the day
vas the aged and decrepit mother of
GrOgan, who tottered feebly into the
court and told of an instance where
Eastman looked towards her son and
said: His days are short" This
al a little over a week before the
tragedy. Two witnesses were re-
called, who identified the bullet ex-
hibited at the trial as the n taken
from the body of Grogan. This last
testimony will have great bearing on
the case, if the defense should claim
that the bullet which was SHOWN to
the jury had been changed after the
autopsy by some government official.
Should the governments plea for the
admission of the grand jury testi-
mony be overruled tomorrow it is like
ly its case against Eastman will rest
and the defense will then begin.

STEAMSHIP DEAL.
Provokes Unusual Discussion in Eng
lish Papers.

liSh Papers.
London, April 3O.-The Leyland
line deal provokes unusual discussion
in the English papers, which reveals
the existence of not a little a%pprehen-
sion as to the possibility of the Unit
ed States dominating the Atlantic car
rying trade. The general impression,
however, is that the transfer is con-
nected with the probable passage by
the United States senate of the ship
subsidy bill.
The Daily Telegraph asks editorially
whether the whole British empire is
to be bought up or bought out by
American millionaires. 1t calls ]. P.
Morgan the ~Bonoparte of trade" and
thinks the British public will be pal
pably foolish if it is lulled by the
statements that there is no intention
to withdraw the vessels of the Ley
land line from the Union Jacks.

JAPAN PREPARING.
War Propaganda Popular With the
Little Brown Men.

London, April 30.-It is reported
that the Japanese government has re-
vived subsidized mail steamers for it's
W use, says the Shanghai correspon-
dent of the Morning Post. This sug-
gests that the Japanese are preparing
for emergencies. .
The desperate state of the private
finances of Japan is said to be max
ing the wal propaganda popular. Ac-
cording to the opinion in Shanghai
al outbreak of hostilties would be the
signal for a Using throughout China.
Everywhere among the Chinese
there is a feeling OF unrest.
A dispatch to the Standard from
Tien Tsin says there is no doubt that
petty attacks on foreigners continue
and the statement is current that
bodies of we'll armed Chinese are
secretly drilling. Chinese picked
troops are reported in strength in the
vicinity of rao Ting Flu. The situation
demands the retention of the foreign
troops for the present.
DR.. Morrison, wiring to the Times
from Pekin, April 20, protests that
Count Won Waldersee's policy of punt
tive expeditions has thrown the great
er part of the province of Chi Lii into
anarchy and disorder. This is so COM
plete, he says, that the neighborhood
of Pekin is now more unsafe for for
eigners than at any previous time
since the occupation began.

Boston Wool Market.

Boston, May 1.-The american Wool
& Cotton Reporter will say of the wool
trade tomorrow:
The tone of the market has contin-
ued quiet, but generally very steady.
The demand, such as il is, has been
extended to about everything, al
though the call has been chiefly for
woods which grade fine or quarter
blood or below. Half blood woods
have been slow and saggy. The open
ing of the London sales Tuesday Of
this week was a disappointment. 1t
has been generally believed on this
side that merinos would open 500
per cent better. The sales opened,
however, with merinos unchanged, as
compared with the close of the pre-
vious sales and with cross breds IN
per cent lower, according to some
cables, but others. report that mer-
mos opened at par to S per cent bet
ter and cross breds 5 to 7h lower.
What effect this will have on fine
woods on this side remains to be seen.
At this writing such stock holds pref
ty- steady and as the domestic mar
ket Is several cents below the level
of the foreign market 1t is believed
and hoped that the reduction Of prices
here will not be very great.
The sales of the week in Boston
amounted to $3.50, 900 pounds domestic
and $4,000 pounds foreign, making

TERRIBLE TERRY
Oscar Gardner Put to Sleep
by the Brooklyn .
Terror.

San Francisco, April 3O.-Terry Nc
Govern and Oscar Gardner met in the
ring tonight at Mechanics Pavilion be-
fore the Twentieth Century club, to
fight for the featherweight champion
ship of the world. In spite of the in
clemency CT the weather the big pavil-
ion was filled to overlooking, so great
was the desire to witness the little
men in action. McGovern and Gard
ner weighed in this afternoon, both
scaling within weight, 124 pounds.
The question of referee was settled
yesterday afternoon, Harry Corbett,
brother of Jim Corbett, being the
choice Of both men. There was some
talk of having Charley White, the east
ern referee, preside in the ring, but
clamor of the local sporting element
for the selection of a local man to act
in that capacity resulted in the selec-
ton OF Corbett, who is the only local
man known to both men, qualified to
act as referee for the contest Bet
IlAS ILLS dlI0IuOOu was ~ 70 s III
favor of McGovern and some admirers
OF the little fellow offered even better
odds. The men fought for a purse of
$4,000, winner taking Is per cent and
loser 25 per cent. .
McGovern knocked out Gardner in
the fourth round. From the first min
ute until the end came there was v
a doubt in the minds of the spectators
as to the outcome. McGovern forced
the pace all through and had no trou-
BILE in landing when and where he
liked. Gardeners swings were very
wild and ineffective. On only two or
three occasions did he put a clean
blow upon the champion. Gardner
took terrific punishment and went
down repeatedly from the furious as
sault of the Brooklyn terror. In the
fourth round Terry landed a half doz-
en- rights and lefts on the face and
body and Gardner went down. He
struggled to his feet only to 20 down
again. Gardner landed one left on the
body. The blow only served to irri-
tate Terry who came back at him with
lefts and rights in a perfect shower.
Gardner received a hard right sauarely
in the pit of the stomach and as he
was falling Terry sent in his left to
the jaw, which ended the fight.

snow that the bullet taken from Gro
gan's body came from a center-1re
revolver, although Eastman in his
many statements said the accident
took place while he had an old rim
fire revolver in his hand. Members
of Grogan's family testified that
Eastman had said that he was not on
good terms with Grogan.
The expert testimony oHered as to
the composition of the rim-fre and
center-fire cartridges was of interest,
as Professor Wood of Harvard, who,
as an expert, testified that he had
found tin in the fragment of bullet
taken from Grogan's body, which cor
responded with the composition of
the center-fire bullet, while the rim
fire bullet was of pure lead.

DECLARES 1T ILLEGAL.

Count ToIstoi Replies to Decree of Ex-
communication.
Paris, April 3O.-The Temps today
publishes a two-column reply of Count
Tolstoi to the decree of excommuni-
cation pronounced against him. 1t is
dated Moscow, April 10. He says that
as a result Of the decree he has re-
ceived letters from prominent peo-
pie menacing him with death. He
characlerizes the decree as illegal or
Intentionally equivocal, unjustifed
and full of falsehoods. Moreover, he
lays it constitutes an instigation to
evil sentiments and deeds.
Count Tolstoi denounces the teach
ers of the churches and says he is
convinced. that the teaching of the
church, theoretically is injurious, is a
lie in practice and is a compound of
vulture superstitions and sorcery
under which entirely disappears the
n of Christian duty.

ment for which McLaurin speaks.
There is such an elementin every COM
munity and now that the race ques-
ton no longer unifies the white people
of the southern states, it will likely
manifest itself.
Senator Tillman has already taken
up the gauge of battle thrown down by
Senator McLaurin and will doubtless
be able to marshal a considerable ma
jority in that state, but some infiu-
ences are at work in other states
where there is a greater danger OF
their success. Democratic sentiment
is strong enough to resist and over
come the McLaurin movement, but
those who believe that the man is
more important than the dollar will
have to bestir themselves.
