TWO GREAT
GAMES.


There were two great base ball
games in this city yesterday after
noon. The Wilmington A. A. lost
to Chester by the score of to and
the Wilmington defeated the ALI
Cubans by the score of 6 to 5.
The game at South Side Park was
probably the most exciting played
here this season and was witnessed
by nearly 5000 persons. Chester
sent down three special car loads
Of rooters and there was plenty of
roofing during the game on both
sides.
The great features of the game
were two sensational catches by
Russell in left field.
Chester put Jack McFetridge their
strongest twirler in the box. In the
first inning he was touched for three
singles, a sacrifice and a base on
balls, which in all netted two runs.
In the fourth single and an error
by Lenderman Melted another run.
In the fifth two singles, twobases
on balls and n life melted another
run, and it was in this inning that
Dawson gave very bad decision on
Russell sliding to third.
Chester scored two in the first two
in the seventh and one in the ninth.
Wilson Notwithstanding the fact
that he had a sore hand pitched a
fine game. Chester scored the win
ming run in the ninth inning after
two men were out. Campbell got a
base on balls. stole second and scor-
ed on Niegand's hit.
Wilmington 200 O0-4
Chester 10000 020 l-5
WILMINGTON WON.
Tho game at Front and Union
was also interesting and exciting.
Meyers and &. Roger were the
pitchers and each were touched up
for ten hits.
The game was full of brilliant
plays.
G. Moran, the heavy hitting first
baseman of the All-Cubans, sustain
ed his reputation for he tagged the
ball for everything on the list ex-
cept home run, and he tried hard
to get that.
Black in left field picked q new

catches Of hard line drives and Tier

son was little off in his throwing

of ground and worked to win.
News got his eye on the ball.
The Chester came down to kick
and they did kick.
Campbell touched Wilson for
singles and Il triple, quite feat.
Captain Niegan'ds constant kick
over decisions over which there was
not the least bit of doubt was
disgusting.

ANOTHER MO.
TI0u REFUSED.

The court this morning refused
the motion of counsel for Sheriff
Mcdaniel, Mayor Boyd, Harvey B.
Wigglesworth and Walter Rash,
which was to compel the Attorney,
General to file a bill of particulars
in connection with the Indictment
against the above defendants.
Shortly after court was opened
Chief Justice Lore announced the
decision. He said that the court
had ca refully considered the argu-
ment and has decided to refuse the
motion. ~
William S. Eilles, counsel fer the
defendants, asked chat in order to ,
protect whatrights they might have
an exception be noted. Chief JUS !.
tice Lore said it was not an excap
tional matter and that the decision
was final. Later, however, he told ,
Mr.. Hilles he would let him not an
exception for what it is worth.
About half an hour was taken up
in goin & over the argument list and
fixing the dates for the cases to
be tried.
Argument was heard on the mo-
tion of John Biggs, counsel for Pat
rick Fahey, to quash the Indictment
returned against Mr. Fahey, charg-
ing subornation Of perjury.
Mr.. Biggs novel to quash the in
dictmenr on the ground that it does
not set out any offence against the
laws of the State of Delaware.
First, The crime of subornation
of perjury has several indispensable
ingredients, which must be charged
in the Indictment or it will be ia
tally defective. The testimony of
the witness suborned must be false.
1t must be given willfully and cor
ruptly by the witness, knowing it
to be false. The suborner must
know or believe that the testimony
of the witness given or about to be
given will be false. He must know
or believe that the witness will
willfully and corruptly testify to.
facts which he knows to be false.
Subornation Of perjury is in It's
essence. but particular form Of
perjury itself Both counts OF the
Indictment charged the defendant
Patrick Fahey. with having suborn-
ed procuredFrederick Vansant to
swear that he, Frederick Vansant,
upon some day in the month Of Octo.
Der, in the year 1900, was at John
Lynn's house and heard a certain
conversation.
1t is charged in both counts of the
Indictment, that Frederick Vansant +
swore, at the trial of John Lynn,
that he, the said Frederick Vansant
between the hours of and o'clock
in the afternoon upon some day be-
tween the 10th and 18th days Of
October heard thesaid conversation.
In order to constitute good in
dictment for subornation Of perjury,
the defendant, Patrick Fahey, must
be charged with having fuborned or
procured the witness, Frederick
Vansant to swear falsely. to which
he did falsely swear to.
Second, Though party is charg.
ed with suborn alton OF perjury
know that the testimony OF wit
ness whom he called would be false
yet if he did not know that the
witness would wilfully testify yet
a fact knowing it to be false, he
cannot be convicted of the crime
charged. Therefore. both counts
il the indictments are bad, because
there is no averment in either do-
PENDANT knew that the witness
know that the testimony he was in.
stlgated to give was false.

HOW AND WHY YOU CATCH GOLD.

toriums. such as Nordrach, where the ventilation is practically perfect, 1t is found that the patients do not catch cold. There is, I believe, plenty of other evil dence to show that there are places re- mote from ordinary human life where colds cannot be caught whatever the exposure; probably many of your read CTS can bring forward instances.
 On the other hand, that ordinary colds are in the highest degree infectious Is now becoming a matter of common knowledge, and any medical man if he goes about with open eyes can collect evidence for himself. I have watched a cold pass from house to house, and have even traced it from one village to another and have listened, not without some amusement, while the different sufferers from 1t have explained to me just how they caught it-ascribing 1t to some open window, change of garment. or other fancied imprudence. know houses where all the members of the household, in- -cluding visitors and children, are con- stantly catching colds, and they are not airy or even the draughty houses, but stuffy, grimy, badly ventilated, and dark ones,

the idea really came to the notice of the public when the New York milk oon- mission suggested that all dairymen with whiskers dispense with this part of their facial makeup, on the ground that milkmarf with whiskers is liable to lm- pregnate the milk with germs. Following the suggestion the managers of the va" rious milk depots in the neighborhood Of Btnghamton have decided that only smooth-faced men will be allowed here after to have anything to do with the milking or shipping of milk in that part of the State Orders issued to that effect state that with ordinary cleanliness the dust from the stable Is liable to infect the beard and from thence the milk. Some of the farmers who have long prided themselves on the length and beauty of their boards are in dignent at the implied possibility of uncleanliness and at the enforced change in their personal ap- pearance. One declares that he would rather lose his business than his beard. Others express like sentiments, but many, on the ohter hand, are heartily in accord with the movement. The sig nificance of the movement lies in Its re- lation to the wearing of boards in gen. eral. If there is menace to the dairy there is menace to other departments or industry.
  that various health authorities have for sometime been making reforms when ever possible.
 q suppose the idea came" said Dr.. Park of the New York Board of Health, from our suggestion to the milkmen Of the State There Is real menace to the milk if the dairyman Is bearded. In the first place the milker may be diseased bimself. He may have tuberculosis, and the drisd sputum may accumulate on his beerd and drop from 1t into the milk. hich would then become dangerous to any consumer already pred sposed to the disease. The milzer is forced to incline his head over the milk pail in order to get near enough to do his work, and you have no doubt noticed that men with Tor boards have habit of stroting them downward That has the effect of brush ing off any germs they may contain Again the milker may be perfectly healthy himself and yet accumulate bac- teria from the dust of the stable. The beard, particularly when damp, may be- come an ideal germ carrier, and on an rnclean nan would nave great facility for ths transmission of disease In the case of the physician it might transmit disease if brought in contact with 1t. For instance, a doctor with a long beard, in examining a diphtheria case might very well accumulate the germs Of the disease while he was bending down to examine a patient. A child with the disease might cough and the doctors beard might ';ol- lect the germs, which, when dry, could very easily be transmitted in this way to another patient"

From the Chicago Daily News.
 The people of London have been moved by the lack of uniformity in their public clocks to ask for legislation on the subject One member of the County Council, in bringing the subject before that body, went so far as to make test of thirty-five clocks, which are visible to the pedestrian between the Mansion House and Victoria station
 with the exception of Big Ben and one synchromzed clock" he reports, 'only one clock-that of the law courts showed the correct time during seven days observation; and of the remaining thirty-two some were wrong to the extent of as much as six minutes" It is argued that there is no reason why London, should not have synchronized clocks showing uniform time. The value of the odd minutes which are lost through in accurate timepieces has been brought to notice by a story in a little volume re- gently published. A large firm required a manager for one of it's departments and appointed 12 o'clock for arrangement of terms with the selected applicant. He arrived at 12:05, to find dozen directors waiting, the chairman watch In hand. The chairman announced that they could not engage a subordinate who had wasted

A crusade against the beard has been started, and if the movement keeps the pace it has already acquired it will not be long before we will be as whiskerless a race as in the days of Napoleon. For the edict has gone forth and the man of fashion. the barber and the doctor are concurring to give 1t force. The first Is actuated by mere vanity, the second by gain, the third by science, or at least, hygiene, and in this latter cause is found the real significance of the movement, since it concerns the general health.
 Heretofore the unboardlng of nation has always reflected it's mood. People have become beardless after suffering great moral crises-witness the time of Cromwell in England, the period of the revolution in France. Perhaps some peo- pie may think we have passed through a great political crisis in this country, but that, after all, is not the real motive for the present crusade. It is true that fashion has been gradually reducing It's devotees to the absolutely shorn condi- ton. The day of the flowing mustache, for instance, was passed years ago In spite of the outcry of the ladies' the youth of the period long ago relegated the military twist to the mechanic, the laborer and the man who wears made up tie The short cropped mustache has been long in vogue. But more recently the young blood, who is to his fellows what the Gibson girl is to womankind, has shaved his face clean to accord with his short niched coat tail and his peg top trousers, all of which might well take place at any time without rhyme or reason.
 But here come the doctors, to whom a flowing beard has been considered es- sential from the standpoint of business. declaring that the beard Is. after all but B vehicle for the growth of disease germs which may menace not only the health of the wearer but which may transmit the germs to others; that the dairyman who wears a beard does so to the peril of his customers who drink the milk he con taminates; that doctors who wear beards report greater mortality among their patients than those who do not; that the man with a beard who enters a railway coach cannot come away without very palpable addition of the bacteria which always infest such places, since it has been proved that the mating of the coaches compo sed of many individual strands of hairs like those of a beard, are literally covered with bacteria.
 Now, it is a fact that doctors have long separated themselves into two classes, those who do and those who do not wear boards, and In the larger clinics 1t is noticeable that the operators are as careful of their hirsute appendages as Lord Lister was of his fingernails, but
