nlstoricnl Divisions Of Time.

For convenience time is, by his
torlans, usually divided into three
great eras-ancient, medieval Tor mid
dle) and modern. The ancient period
is considered to extend from the earli-
est times down to the fall Of the Ro-
man empire in the west in A. d. 47G;
the medieval from that date to the
discovery of America by Columbus in
1892 and the modern from that time to
the present. Some historians prefer to
put the end of the medieval period at
the capture of COnstantinople by the
Turks, about 40 years earlier than the
Columbus event. The dark ages are
often held to be coeval with the me-
di@val era, but some authorities think
that the term should be applied only
to the part Of the era extending from
the downfall of the empire of Charlie
magne, in the ninth century, onward.

If THE Pittsburg A. G. baseball team
ever had a reputation as a good nine,
Il lost it all yesterday. The Whining
ton A. A. outplayed the Pennsylva-
mans at every point in the game, and
sent them home to their smoky city
with heads held low and trailing col
ors. The visitors played such a poor
game that many of the spectators were
led to believe they were not the Pitts
burg A. c., which is a creditable or
ganization. and one that would not
likely put such a team in the field.
Blough was the artist for Manager
Frysinger's men, and the Pittsbure
player were unable to connect with
him. He allowed them but four hits
The local men batted Collins at will
The playing of the visitors was more
like that Of schoolboys, and at times
became very tiresome.

Manager Charles II. Yale says the
Devils Auction which comes TO
Grand Opera House on Wednesday
night is the best paying piece of the
atrical property in America, and gives
the following reasons to substantiate
the claim:
First it has been on the road con-
tinually for twenty seasons.
Second. 1t has always pleased its
many thousands of patrons throughout
the country.
Third. it has always been kept up to
the times with novelties and innoya-
tions. making it each season a new
performance, simply retaining the old
name as a trade mark.
Fourth. it has never presented any
thing to offend and caters to the ladies
and children.
Fifth, the theatre going public are
always sure Of enjoying a pleasant
evenings entertainment and seeing
what the management advertises.
The one reason why everybody
should see II this year is that the
twenty-first edition of "The Devils
Auction Is new in its entirety.

]. Pierpont Morgan has refused 90 ir
terfere in the coal strike, The oper
ators say that they believe the END IS
In sight, and they expect larso ac-
cessions to the ranks of their work
ers.
There was much activity about the
mines. and many of them are being
cleared. so they may be operated as
soon as sufficient men ere obtained.
This is particularly noticeable in the
case of the New York. Ontario and
Western Railroad Company. superin-
tondent j. r. Dryden. of that COM
pany's coal department. would not af-
firm the rumors that something will
happen at the collieries under his SUI
peryision, but neither did he deny
them.
A large searchllght Of the same
size as those used on modern war
ships. has been installed at the Pan.
coast colliery. The light commands
a view of the entire property OF the
Ontario and Western in that region,
total of 1000 acres. The light can
be turned in any direction, and by
its aid any night prowler about the
place can be instantly discovered.
Besides the Pancoast collery and
waahery. Richmond, No. and John.
son No. 1 and collieries are protect
ed by the light which commands a
fun view Of them.
Another fact which leads to tho
conclusion that the companies con
template active measures in the near
future is that the vacations of the
railroad firemen have been withdrawn
By several of the companies, and FIRE
men now idle have been notified to
report for work on September l. Cars
are also reported to be daily shipped
to sidings near the breakers. which
naturally seem to indicate that the
companies expect to soon iind q use

miners at work, and this number is

long fly to left, which Mullin at first
misiudged. Then. running back, he
turned quickly and caught the ball
Tierney also captured a hot liner from
