VICTORY OVER DEATH.

The victory Of faith over death has
probably never been more %conspict-
ously demonstrated than In the case
of Pope Leo XIII. 1t is impossible TO
conceive that the transition from time
to eternity could be regarded with
any sense OF fear or misgiving by
a man SO wholly devoted to spiritual
things as the head of the great Roman
church has been. While Leo has been
a most vital factor In the affairs of
the world, has interests have all cen
tered In eternal things. His great
work has all borne directly on the
life which is TO come. II must be
that for many years he has looked
upon the world beyond the grave as
through an open door. Conseerated
wholly to the cause Of God and Of
Christ in the world. living free in
thought and action from all earthly
faint, and refined by habit and by
the Christening influences OF age. from
everything gross or carnal. death
could be nothing to Leo but a call to
the place where he has laid up all
his treasures and upon which his
hopes and affections have been fixed
during the greater part Of a long and
sanity life.-Kansas City Times.

WAY MORNING AIR is FRESH.

Everyone recognizes the sweetness

and knows that these attractive prop
critics disappear as the day advances;
but, so far as analysis goes, the COM
position Of early morning air Is not
different from that Of air OF any other
time. Why is this? Says a writer In
The Lancet april 25).
III is well to remember that during
the passing Of night to day and Of day
to night several physical changes take
place. There is a fall in temperature
at sunset and a rise again at dawn.
and consequently moisture Is alter

change Of state Is accompanied by
electrical phenomena and certain
chemical manifestations also. The for
nation Of dew has probably therefore
far more profound effects than merely
the moistening Of objects with water.
Dew is yitalizing not entirely because
II Is water, but because 1t possesses
an inyigorating action due partly, at
any rate, TO the fact that II Is saturat-
cd with oxygen. and 1t has been stated
that during its formation peroxid Of

WINNIPEG ALMOST
BLANkED /. BY ALTOONA
Colored Ball Team Turns Ia.
bles on Northern League
Champions.

Aigona evened up with Winnipeg
Yesterday at Lexington park by defeat
Ing the Northern league pennant win
ners in as pretty contest as has been
seen at the park this season. Although
the Canadians played an errorless
game, to which was added the splendid
work of Sessions, who was on the slab,
the pennant winners were unable to
connect with the twisters handed out to
them by Holland, of the colored team.
Score, to l.
Algona hit better than the Canadians
and played almost as perfect fielding
game. Two of their runs, however,
were secured on passed balls and wild
pitches, while the other two were
earned. An error made by the colored
players cost the only run secured by
the Winnipegers during the game
The Canadians started the run get
ting by scoring in the first inning
After Quillan, the first man up, had
struck out. Annis got in front of one of
Hollands inshoots and walked to first.
He stole second, and finally reached
home on Johnson's error at the home
plate, the catcher failing to get the
ball. But for this mishap the story
would be even a more disastrous one
for the pennant winners. After this
Winnipeg stood but little chance to
score at any time, fourteen of their
number striking out.
The colored aggregation secured
their runs one at a. time in four differ
ent innings, the first coming in the
third. C{4
Holland went tor first on four wild
ones. reached second on Richardson's
sacrifice, went to third on a safe hit
by Tony and scored on Jones' fly to CEN
ter field.
In the fifth, after Holland had been
retired at first, Richardson hit safe
one and stole second. He reached third
on Smiths sacrifice and scored on
Tony's single.
In the sixth two ssingles and passed
ball formed the combination RESPONSE
BILE for another rum and In the seventh
two wild pitches. and a single by Rich
ardson, Melted the fourth and last run
credited to the colored aggregation.
Both Holland and Sessions did good
work in the box, but the distinctive
feature of the game was the pitching
of Holland. who struck out fourteen of
the leaguers and allowed but six hits,
half of which were scratches. Aside
from their inability to connect with
the ball, both teams played we'll, the
exhibition being much better one than
that of Saturday, The score:
