Umpire Gets Broken Jaw.

Richard Rood, an employee of the Long
Distance Telephone company, had a de-
cidedly strenuous time of it Sunday after
noon umpiring a game of ball between
the Suburban and Duck Hollow teams at
the Thirty-fourth street and Broadway
grounds. His decisions apparently did not
meet with favor at times, and several at
tempts to assault him were made. He
managed to stay with the game until the
finish, but is now nursing a fractured jaw
as the result of a free-for-all tight which
ensued afterward. No report of the fight
was made to the police and no arrests have
been made.

Toys by Installments.

rrom IN-BUS.
Most middle-aged people are wont to
dwell on the ingenuity and cheapness OF
the immense variety of toys that are with
IN the reach of the children of today as
compared with those Of thirty or fort,
years ago. and a further cause Of surprise
Is the fact that lately great numbers of
small toy dealers are beginning to take
payments of penny, and even Of half
penny week tor any object that may at
tract a Juveniles attention.
Like many another innovation, said a TOW
dealer in Southeast London, whom the
writer specially sought out, the practice of
taking small weekly payments for TOYS
came from the provinees-from Manchester,
In the first instance. 1 believe. And 1t is an
immense success from our point of view
By means of it sell quite five times more
or the higher priced toys than l used to do
Although have only been taking weekly
payments for about six months I have
more than 300 young people on nv books
| know one dealer with over 400 Juvenile
lnstailment customers. And here Is a sin
gular thing: l have never yet known any
child to turn back: when the child has
made up its mind that 1t will have a given
sixpenny article 1t has paid for 1t to the
last fraction
I have rule that no subscriptions shall
be forfeited-that is to say. If any child
has only paid fourpence toward a sixnennv
article 1t can. If 1T likes, have some other
article to the full value of it's fourpence
But the privilege has never yet been Claim.
ed. am afraid that 1 have had some bad
urchins who tried to enter on their own
cards subscriptions that had never heen
paid by them. but have very little trouble
as a rule. / have never received a single
complaint from any parent. but a good
many Of my juvenile customers want TO
take away their toys directly they have
paid the first penny. But the thire-nur-
chase" system would never answer with
boys, for obvious reasons.

Mr.. English. While the change has been

The placing of the British war loan
was a soaker.' On a bank holiday. when

awake Americans who were on the spot
, reached in and subscribed for every dollar
of that loan the bank would permit them
to take. The next day when the London
financiers returned to their offices they
learned what had happened and were hor-
rified beyond measure.
1.-The capture of the Bryant & May Match

In the eyes of the English as the Tower of

THE SOLID WEST.
It is Now Opposed by Republicans to
Broken South.

a Broken South.
From the New York World.
To broken south the republicans now
oppose practically a solid west. Not only
did the great states of the middle west and
northwest go strongly republican at the
recent election, but the fifteen states west
of the Mississippi ten of which voted for
Mr. Bryan in 1896, were all carried by the
republicans with the small exception Of
Nevada.
Of the fifty-eight representatives repre-
senting those states, the republicans have
forty-nine and the democ: ats nine There Is
not democratic governor left in all the
west The republicans will gain in the far
west three senator's
In considering the reason for this drift
backward the Kansas City Journal says:
THE numerous fine-spun theories as to
why the west Is republican are balderdasn.
The west ceased to be republican-that
part of 1t which followed Bryan-because it
republican again because prosperity re-
turned under republican policies. TheoTize
as you WILL the people are for the party
that travels in company with good times
and they cannot be blamed for it,
Looking ahead from these conditions the
San Antonio Express says that:
LAS matter of fact. the east. not the
west, is the south's natural ally. 1t Is with
the east that we are most closely asso-
ciated in a commercial and social way.
The substantial gains made In several states
formerly for the most part democratic are
therefore encouraging. There may be such
further Improvement with the right sort of
ticket and platform as will permanently re-
store New York, New Jersey. Connecticut.
Delaware, Maryland and West Virginia to
the democratic column, and we can then be
entirely independent Of the populisttc and
silver mining western states"
Other southern papers take the same
view. and see the only hope of their party
in an alliance Of the south with the for
merly democratic eastern and middle states
on a tariff reform, reciprocity and anti
monopoly platform.
