The Bombardment Started.

Wallace started the bambardment with
single into left, and Dick Padden pulled
liner around into right field that went
almost to the club house, the former scor-
Ing and the batter landing on third. Nc
Cormick hit over second and Padden scor-
ed Sugden followed with a hit into left
that Delehanty couldn't quite reach and
Mccormick cantered across the plate, Here
were three runs in and nobody out, and
as the comedian over In the bleachers yell
ed: "Nobody's out and nobody's going to
get out. 1t looked as If he was a prophet
predicting a sure thing.
Powell popped up a little fly near the
home plate and Ortiz went after it like a
naWk, yeiling TOT room as he ran. Stretch
Ing out his left hand, Ortiz got 1t under
the sphere and 1t stuck a catch being
made that should have rings all around II.
Sugden edged up toward third on the play
and by good slide beat Orth's throw to
Wolverton.
Orth renewed his poor work in the pitch
ing line by hitting Burkett with the bai N
and sending Heidrick to first on balls Ma
ionsy went out on q grounder to Carey
by Anderson sending a line fly to Coughlin.
This tells the tale Of the st. Louis game,
as blanks were served up to the Browns
for the remaining five innings.
Nothing daunted by the Browns fine
rally, the Senators went right back after
them In the sixth inning, and as the re-
suit of Bill Coughlin's fine drive into right
center for triple and a timely single by
Carey, the score was tied. -.
The seventh. eighth and ninth innings
went for naught, and the Browns were re-
tired In regular order In the tenth When
the Senators came up for their last turn

Exceptionally Fine Ball.

The St Louis team played exceptionally
fine ball, not misplay being made during
the afternoon, but Powell was somewhat
off in his work and was hit effectively in
spots. Ex-Senators Padden and Anderson
were given a hearty greeting by the spec
tators and the old, familiar face and figure
of Jesse Burkett were recognized and joy
fully welcomed. Emmett Heidrick. Sugden
and Maloney were also well received. Man
ager James McAleer was out in uniform
and practiced with the Browns and he
looks good today. as ever, although he
Is a little overweight.
Orth was on the rubber for the Senators
and his work was of the kind that has
made him famous. The Browns located his
delivery in only one inning, but it was of
the whippoorwill order and sent the specta-
tors into a fit of the blues. In the other
nine innings Orth was a puzzle. Back of
Orth the Senators played almost perfect
ball, an error by Ely being the only black
mark against the club. At the bat the
locals showed off to good advantage, the
many endeavors to sacrifice showing that
the men were doing their best to bring out
the fine points of the game, and for their
efforts the spectators backed them up with
encouraging cheers and yellS.

National League Teams Standing.

The st. Louis club made its first appear
ance of the season in Washington yester-
day afternoon and after gallant strug-
gle with the Senators the visitors colors
were lowered by the score Of to 4, ten in
nings being played. 1t was the sort OF
game the spectators like to witness, the
fielding being almost perfect and the bat
ting heavy enough to keep the onlookers
keyed up constantly in expectation of
startling results. The Senators got off well
in the first inning three runs being hung
up, but the Browns went them one better
in the fifth and then the score was tied in
the sixth. For the next three innings
neither side got a run over the plate, but
in the tenth Wolverton, Delehanty and
Keister hit safely in consecutive order and
the winning run was made without any one
being out.
The 5000 spectators began yelling and
cheering at the top of their voices when
Wolverton led off with a pretty single into
left field. Delehanty followed with
double against the center field fence and
the noise was almost doubled The st.
Louis players closed in to shut off WOlver-
ton at the plate. but Billy Keister hit
wicked grounder at Anderson. which
bounded over the latter's shoulder. VOL
verton came home and the game was won.
Cheers and exultant yels filled the air and
a more contented crowd never filed out OF

In Furnishing saloonkeeper for selling
whisky to boy Justice Crutchfield, of
Richmond. took occasion to make the
statement that child is hardly out of
dresses before it can buy cigarettes. Il
might as well state now. said his Honor,
that would like to give some OF this
same medicine to the dealers who sell to
children. "
Every community needs a Justice
Crutchfeld. In the smallest villages. as
well as in the largest cities, the law pro-
hibiting the sale of cigarettes to minors
is Aagrantly violated thousands of times
each day. Little boys and big boys buy
cigarettes when they want them and mo
questions asked"

shafts in cemeteries and wandering aim

demonstrations of the wisdom of those
who framed the anti-cigarette laws.
A law which has for its Office the pro-
lection of.the youth of the land, upon
whom the responsibilities of the future
government of this great Republic rest,
should have the moral support of the peo'

Great Strike At An End.

The operators in the anthracite coal re-
gion have agreed to the appointment of a
commission selected by President Roose-
welt, to whom shall be referred all ques-
tons at issue between the companies and
their own employees, whether they belong
to union or not, and the decision of the
commission shall be accepted by the opera
tors. The commission is to consist of an
army or navy engineer officer, an expert
mining engineer not con nected with the
coal-mining properties, one of the Judges
of the United States Court of the Eastern
district of Pennsylvania, man of promi-
nence, eminent as sociologist and man
who by active participation in mining and
selling coal is familiar with the physical
and commercial features of the business
The operators also make part of their
proposition that the miners shall return
to work as soon as the commission is con-
structed and cease all interference with
non-union men, The comm ission is to
name date when its findings shall be
effective,and to govern conditions of en-
ployment between the companies and
their own employees for atleast three years

There is one thing that we can do to
cheaper the price of fuel, and that is to
repeal the duty on coal. This tax is six
ty-seven cents per ton, and it applies to
anthracite as well as bituminous. Under
all tariffs prior TO 1897 anthracite had
been on the free list, but change was
effected in rather shamefaced way in
the Dngley bill, by which anthracite was
made dutiable, The phraseology of the
Mckinley tariff included in the duti able
list only bituminous coal, and shale, and
culm, but the Dingley measure added the
words :" and all Goals containing less than
o. per cent. of fixed carbon" There is
no foreign anthracite which contains as
much as o2 per cent. of fixed carbon
Thus anthracite became dutiable for the
first time in orr history. This charge was
made, not because anthracite was import
ed to any perceptible extent, but because
anthracite mines existed near Banff, on
the Canadian Pacific Railroad, and it was
possible that the product might find a
market in the United States. In order to
be prepared for an emergency, duty of
sixty>seven cents pei ton was clapped on
the article in this underhand way. Well,
the emergency has now come. Anthracite
from Wales to-day on shipboard coming
to the United States and it is reported
that contract has been made for Cana
dian anthracite also, When it arrives
this blessed Government, which is trying
IN all ways to get rid of its surplus reve-
nue., will demand sixty-seven cents for
each ton admitted to our ports, and the
classes who can least afford it will have
to pay the tax.-N, Y. Evening Post.

There Is more Catarrh in This see ion of the
country than all other diseases put together.
and until the last few years was supposed to be
incarable. For a great many years doctors
pronounced it a local disease, and prescribed
local medies and by constantly falling to
cure with local treatment, pronounced it in
durable. Science has proven catarrh to be a
constitutional disease, and therefore requires
constitutional treatment. Halls Catarrh Cure,
manufactured by F. J. Cheney Il Co, Toledo
Ohio, is the only constitutional cure on the
market. 1t is taken internally in doses from
10 drops to a teaspoonfull. 1t acts directly on
the blood and mucous surfaces of the system.

fails to cure. Send for circulars and iesti-
