Prof. T. N. Carver in the December
Worlds Work, land very close OBJ
server told me that upon one Of his
trips through the west almost every
man he met and spoke with used pro-
family; but finally he found one man
who talked with him for twenty min
utes without using an oath. AS they
were about to separate my friend shook
hands with the stranger and said:
You don't know how glad I am to
have a chance to have a talk with a
man like you. You are the first man
I have met for three days who could
talk for five minutes without swearing.
THE stranger was so surprised and
shocked at this deplorable state Of af-
fairs that he instantly and innocently

"When l lived in the. circus" said
the bear to the parrot, there was once
a great storm. and the rain came down
so hard that it just filed up all the
cages and the rings and everything.
The circus men were afraid that all
the animals except the sea lion would

"Well what did they do% asked the
parrot.
"They asked me to help them out OF
their trouble" replied the bear.

The Washington times., 1903-07-11

this afternoon. Within the last six
weeks we were notified that 1t might be
to our advantage to negotiate with the
Washington club for the services Of Ed
Delehanty. The information came from
a source that made the offer positive
certainty, and for just a short space Of
time we were tempted TO take advantage
Of it. Then the possibility OF offending
the New York club, and the prospects Of
the whole deal being miscOnstrued, came
to US, and in the end we dropped the
matter without communicating with the
Washington club. We would liked to
have had him, but for the sake OF abso-
Lutte harmony IN the National League we
allowed the oportunity to secure him
go by. Had he been playing in Cincin
natl the temptation TO stray from the
straight and narrow path might not have
arisen. and he might be alive and well

MUCH CORRESPONDENTS

One hundred and forty dozen intrench-
ing shovels. which tho Engineer Corps
OF the Army requires as a part OF its
regular equipment, have become the
subject of extended Official correspOn-
dence between Government departments
a contract for these implements was
made IN June last. bat because Of their
special type of construction. delivery
Will not be made until some TINA IN
the present fiscal year. The question
to be decided was from which funds
1903 or 1904 fiscal year-payment should
be made.
Major Edward Burr. Corps Of En-
giueers. stationed at Washington Bar
racks, informed Secretary Root OF the
facts and asked instructions. The Sec
retary forwarded the inquiry to the
Treasury Department. and the Acting
Comptroller has decided that the signing
OF the contract. and not the delivery OF
the goods. determines the rule Of pay
ments. Consequently Major Burr's con
tention is upheld and the amount de-
ducted from q balance remaining june
80. instead Of encroaching on the funds
available for the Engineer Corps until
June 30 OF next year. The corre-
spondence Is quito voluminous.

all his strength on Corbett's Jaw. That

Al ORTIZ AFFLICTED
WITH A TIRED FEELING
Detroits Hammer Him at VIII and
Win, 10 to 9

Revenge is sweet at all times, and yes
terday the Tigers had it in generous
proportions. and fairly reveled in it, at
that.
Smiling Az Orth and "Wild Bill"
Donovan were pitted against each other,
and 1t was all Bill. Al had one OF his
off days, and his work was mildly sug
gestiye OF his need of something, in Co
pious draughts, for that tired feeling.
Albert slammed them over. slanted them
over, lobbed them up, and lobbed them
down; but they all met with the same
fate. The stout wagon tongues OF tho
visitors met them fairly on the nose, and
AIS benders went hustling to the outer
bulwarks- If any one person enjoyed the
onslaught more than another, it was
Wild BIZ Donovan, who had field day
at the bat. Four hits in all was his
portion, and OF these one was q three
sacker and another double. Not con-
tent with knocking the cover of the
ball, Bill would. with fiendish glee, tell
Al. In audible tones, how easy he was.
While Detroit made fifteen hits, net
ting them ten runs. the Senators were
close behind them with thirteen; yet the
latter could only dent out six runs. The
home team lacked that snap and vim
which characterized their work on
Thursday, and it was plainly eviden,
from the outset of the game that defeat
persistently stared them in the face.
One delightful feature of the game was
Malachi Kittridge's backstop work, who,
by long odds. is the best catcher who
has played in Washington this year.
Lotus is TO be congratulated upon Sc
curing the services OF such an earnest.
hard working, and clean little player.
SILK" O'Loughlin proved a big card
yesterday. He is off in many respects
in his work, but one thing in his favor
he certainly keeps the game moving
along.
| One of his merry quips yesterday
which caught the crowd was his reply TO
Bill Clarke. The first baseman was at
the bat. and silk" called a strike on
him.
What for?" roared Clarke.
Because I said so, and 1 guess that
will be about all for you" retorted
SILK" as quick as fash. And it was;
Clarke shut up as tight as a clam.

In a baseball game on the formers

by the one-sided score OF "a TO 9. The
game early developed into an oId-time
slugging contest on tho part of the vic
tors who eyinced q decided liking for
the snaky shoots of Pitcher Dudeny, and
fell upon them for a total Of twenty
one hits in the fourth inning. This
gave Dudeny a severe case OF heart fail
ure and he earnestly requested to be
relieved. but manager Rout refused 10
take him out cf the box and made him
take his medicine
