Standing of of the Teams.

The Senators broke the hoodoo which
has been keeping such close tab on them
Tor the past fortnight or more yester-
day, when wee Willie Carrick went into
the box and walloped the "e--Muggs-
les" It was up to Bill to turn the
trick. as Orth and Townsend and one
or two other twirlers Of alleged note
md worth endcavored to do it, buI their
work fell short enough to make it dis
gusting.
Howell started in to do the Iaborious
box work for the Birds, but the Senators
horribly aaItreated and assaulted his
pet curves and lenders until he was
forced to fy the distress signal, and one
Mr. Shields came to the front and vol
unteered to save the flag from disgrace.
He did everything within his power. but
there was nothing doing in the line OF
holding the Statesmen down, for they
managed to make pretty free connec-
tions with Shields delivery. The ORR

the absence Of one Muggsy McGraw did
not cause the loss OF the game, as some
people would think if this explanation
were not made.

The total amount Of fines paid By the
traction company on prosecutions under
this law, including those imposed yes
terday, since the first day of last jan
uary has now reached the sum Of nearly
81 900. There are yet pending against
the company about thirty suits. These,
no doubt, will be augmented by many
others by October. for there is nothing
in the way Of filing another information

DlO"S Otll llIC gas dIHl luIDlSIleS the newspapers with a jest and an obituary notice. 'Didn't know it was loaded" may be an honest plea, but it never brought a victim back to life. Those who let a cough run on, Tn ignorance of the danger, find no escape from the con- sequences when the cough de velops into lung trouble.
 The best time to kill a snake is in the egg. The best time to cure a cough is when it starts. Ordinarily, a few doses of Dr. Pierce's Golden Med ical Discovery will cure cough at the beginning. But even when the cough is deep seated, the lungs bleed and the body is wasted by enlaciation, Dr. Pierce'3 Golden Medical Discovery will in ninety-eight cases out of every hundred effect a perfect and ~ermanent cure.

He Looked Tough.

Gen. Fitzhugh Lee, in his lec- ture at Boston, told one story of his Havana experiences that was especially enjoyed. One day, while sitting m his office, as con- sul general, a seedy individual opened the door and cautiously approached. The visitor was most disreputable looking bearded, dirty and only partially clad. Gen. Lee reached for his revolver as the stranger ap- preached. If the stranger had made any movement of the hands toward his hips the general in tended to shoot him and take no chances.
 The stranger said he had been out with the rebels fighting, had hurt his hip, was about starved, and was generally used up.
 Gen. Lee gave a bath, a shave, a haircut, some clothes and something to eat and a passage to the United States. At part ing he asked him where he came from.
 "Kansas," was the answer.

SpecuIating in Government Land

Speculating in Government Land.
 The Alameda Encinal says:
 The Chronicle calls attention to the taking of large bodies of pulic lands on the desert and suggests that this may be done by spectators, who have no in tention of aiding in the reclama- tion of that land, but merely in tend to take advantage of the enterprise of others and sell out at large profit without any risk to themselves. This has already been done in the locality referred to-the development of the I'm perial region of the Colorado desert. Men who ought to be in better business have gone there and ''taken up" large tracts of public land, and have refused point blank to contribute iu any way to the development of irri- gation. That development is costing a large amount of money and the only way in which the enterprising men who are behind it can recoup themselves is by selling water to the people who take the land. The land is per fectly worthless without water, yet it is possible to realize a large profit by taking up such tracts, refusing to invest a cent in water and then waiting until the enter prise of others in. irrigation has made the dry land largely valua- ble, when it will be sold by the spectators. This ought not to be permitted. No man should be allowed to speculate with public lands in this fashion, and some means ought to be taken to pre- vent in future, as suggested by the Chronicle.
 Speculation of this character has been quite expensive, but up to date has not been very profitable, as the price of water stock has kept pace with the ad- vance in the price of land with water stock. The speculation proves to be in the water stock and not in the land, yet the at tempt to so speculate in the land has proven to be a damage to the irrigation enterprise, al- though of little benefit to those engaged in the business.

One ton of coal is approximate ly equal for steam-making pur- poses to four barrels of petro- leum. No exact figure of equiv alence can be given, as both coals and petroleums vary in efficiency. The approximate figures stated are based on both high-grade coal and high-grade petroleum. A ton of inferior coal might only equal three barrels of oil. In California the average coal and the average petroleum are equivalents in the ratio of 1 coal to 3.5 oil.-M. and s. Press.

A Printer Greatly Surprised.

"Inever was so much surprised in my life as I was with the re- suits of using Chamberlain's Pain Balm," says Henry T. Crook, pressman of the Ashville (N. O. Gazette. "I contracted a severe case of rheumatism early last winter by getting my feet wet. 1 tried several things for it without benefit. One day while looking over the Gazette I noticed that Pain Balm was pos itively guaranteed to cure rheum- atism, so bought a bottle of it, and before using two-thirds of it my rheumatism had taken it's flight and 1 have not had a rheumatic pain since" Sold at Cotter's drug store.

were named after inc twelve apostles the tairgeeata pear ..oa @4s pat y itaelI, thirteen paces to the front center, facing the twelve. The thirteenth tree was named Judas Iscariot, so frequently referred to as the be- traying apostle. All of these trees were carefully cultivated by the religious brothers, and grew tall and shapely; but the neighbors there say none ever bore fruit except Judas.
 Referring again to the Le Compte pears, thirteen acres of these trees, ten years old, at Hitchcock, near Galveston, Tex as, yielded a net profit to the owner of $500 in 1893. The pears were shipped to Chicago, Ill.,, boxed but not wrapped. When properly cultivated there are no off seasons year as with another, every year crop, with these pears.
 In my article in the Sentinel last month on pineapple culture it was assumed that the raising of "pines" in the Yuma valley and mesas will pay bigger profit to the producer, partly for the reason that they will yield a crop eighteen months after planting, and annually thereaf ter.
 Pears are always in demand at-paying prices, and soil and climate here are congenial to their growth.
