of this country, as dispatches from
Washington have said Is likely to
be done In case the Postoflce De,
partment brings Out new Issue,
his protrait will be the ninth of a
President to be used In that way.
Ever since Uncle Sans postoAice
began making stamps, In 1S47. or
thereabouts, the face of Washington
has appeared on one of the stamps
10 every regular Issue, and with a
single exception on stamp of low
value and general use. Benjamin
Franklin's face has always adorned
stamps of low value, and las thus
become familiar to people who send
or receive letters ever since 1847.
Presidents other than Washing.
ton whose faces have appeared on
the stamps are Jefferson, Jackson,
Lincoln, Garfield, Grant, Madison
and Taylor.

Some people gave them selves
this title down In New York the
other day. The occasion was the
$1,000 twenty minute luncheon to
Prince Henry. 1t Is a new title In
this country. We never heard of
1t before. 1t Is self assumed title.
Three or tour persons so styled
themselves, and proceeded to con-
fer the same honor and dignity up
on all whom they supposed were
worthy TO receive 1t. They gszed
over the broad land, and all they
could discover with the proper
qualifications to be thus decorated
were an hundred and twenty.
These were duly summoned, put
their legs under the sacred tables at
the luncheon, and forever after
wards are to be recognized as full
hedged members of this new fra
ternity and wearers of this proud
title.
Who are these ca plains of indus.
Try? Nearly all of them self made
men. Men who have come up
from the ranks. Men who have
done things. Men who have con
quered difficulties and made cir.
cumstances serve them. Men who
have built railroads, dug mines
cleared forests, built cities. organ
ICED industries. Men who have
made the industrial history of the
age. AS such they are worthy o.
our respect and emulation. Fol-
their energy, their perseverance
their ability, We admire them. As
such, they are al honor to this
great land, representative of 1t:

Meriden Trimmed Us Yesterday and
 Passed Us Out-Five Hits Were All
 We Could Secure-But One Error
 Made in the Game-Norwich Again
 Falls Before Springfeld-Hartford
 Defeated the Leaders-Rain jn
 Bridgeport.
 The Meriden Record thus describes the Waterbury -Meriden game of yes terday in Meriden:
 The Meridens kept up their good work at Hanover park grounds Thurs day afternoon, and downed Harring- tons favorites from Waterbury by the score of to 8, and jumped into sev- enth place to the great delight of the $50 people present.
 The contest was one of the most in teresting seen on the grounds in some weeks, and up to the eighth inning . both teams played an errorless game. The work of the eighteen men could not be improved on, but in the eighth, with the score 2 to 1 in the Colts fa- yor, Drew made a tumble of ground ball in his hurry to make a double play and after that the visitors got two men over the plate and tied the score. But the home team got two more runs in their half of the eighth on four hits which clinched the game, and the Brass City bunch returned over the mountain broken hearted. They were pushed down in last place.
 Nolan was in the points for Meriden and he pitched good ball, only allow ing Waterbury five hits. He used the best of Judgment in his work and was very careful what kind of ball he gave to the heavy hitters. He let six men walk, but as only one scored it could be seen that he had received a tip on the sluggers. Nolan, besides doing excellent box work, got three hits and scored two of the runs. He Is a very fast runner and jumped into favor with the cranks when he beat out bunt hit.
 The men behind Nolan gave him great support Burke was a stone wall behind the bat and his throwing to second could not have been better. Captain Tucker on the initial sack took all that came his way, as did Larkin at short and Altizer at third The two last named gave a great ex- hibition, the little shortstop gathering in some hot grounders. Drew, with the one exception mentioned, played a steady game, and started the hitting in the eighth inning by lacing the bal to left garden. Weisbecker, Morrison and Ed Welsh in the outeld pulled down all the high ones, and Welsh il four times up banged out double and two singles.
 Charley Clancy, who has been a ter.

AN UMPIRE ASSAULTED.
It Happened in Does Town and the
 Umpire Resigned.

Dover, N. H., July 18.-Some rowdy baseball was witnessed here yesterday afternoon in the games between Dover and Lawrence, and as result of sey eral assaults made upon him, Umpire Morris handed in his resignation, de claring that it was not safe to act in such capacity at any price.
 The trouble began in the first game, the Lawrence team objecting strongly to the decisions of Umpire Morris. No attempt was made to assault Morris until the eighth inning, although open threats were made by the visitors. In that inning, Barry, left fielder for Law renee, made q rush at Morris and tried to punch him, but the Dover players went to his assistance and the offender was put out of the game. Ill the ninth, Wiley, the Lawrence pitch er asked for new ball and when Morris refused it Wiley threw the one he had over the fence. For this Nor ris gave the game to Dover, 3 to 0. More disgraceful proceedings mark ed the second game. Barry was al lowed to play again and because of decision he threw bat at the umpire, knocking him down, and then beat hlm over the head with his glove The Dover team again saved the umpire, and Barry was put out of the grounds.
 After the game Morris resigned.

Two of the horses ran over him, but he escap- ed with a scalp wound and drove Grant F. ill the 2:2O race.
 In the 2:2O trot, Allabreve was fla yorite, but the judges thought Blr- ney did not drive Mazetto to win and fined him $1O0 and declared all bets off. Gloria was picked to win the 2:13 pace, but she was beaten by Brown Heels. In the 2:27 trot, Contarf Boy was first choice and won the first two heats. but when he dropped the next two, the judges derricked Isabel ana finally won the race with Clontarf Boy put Forshner in the sullzy.
