Washington Nov. l0.--The State De-
partmeat this afternoon received cable
gram from Minister Powell, at San Do
mingo, dated November 6. stating that
the revolutionlsts were then shelling the
city.
The State Department tonight received
a cablesram from Minister Powell at San
Domingo dated to-day, reporting the stu
alton at San Domingo to be extremely se-
rious. The dispatch. it was stated, was
the first which the department had re-
ceived on the day it was filed since dis
turbances began.
The State Department to-day received
another belated dispatch from United
States Minister Powell at San Domingo
CITY. dated November s. in which the
Minister says:
"Macpris has just been bombarded by
San Dominican naval vessel and partial
ly destroyed. The American interests In
MacOris are very considerable
Macoris is fr-nit-shipplng port and the
bombardment Is supposed to have been
without the required twenty-four hours
notice. If it appears that American inter
ests have suffered by arbitrary action ut
the hands of the Dominican Government.
the State Department will demand full
redress, and the cruiser Baltimore now at
Puerto Plata. undoubtedly Will prevent
furtner happenings of this kind.

BASKETBALL LEAGUE.
Basketball Managers on the Hustle for
 Players.

There was no more rest for basket ball magnates yesterday than there is supposed to be for the weary and near ly all the western Massachusetts man. agers put in a day of hustling. With the exception of Pittsfeld, Westfield and Chicopee, all of the teams are still after men and just now pressure is being brought to bear on the players of the Hudson team. There are one or two of them that Holyoke and Springfield would like to use, but neither has made any terms with any of them yet.
 The prestige of successful seas son in base ball and the acknowledged good trea tment given by the men who now have the Holyoke basketball franchise is having it's effect now in basketball and Manager Winkler is ex- periencing little trouble in landing good men. A letter received from Jack Fox conveys the information that he would be glay to play in the Paper city if he had not already signed with New Ha- ven. As Holyoke had first claim on him. Manager Wrinkler will still be glad to give him a. place if he cares to take it.
 It's a pretty good guess that there will be a lot of talk let loose on the salary question when the directors of the league next come together. The ease with which Holyoke snapped up Stanis Mathieu and Jack Scott has caused some wonderment. as it is known that Mike Hickey offered them the limit. Moreover. he had secured positions for them in the Grand opera house which would bring them several dollars week extra and the result is causing considerable wonderment as to what charm Fred Winkler used

Apples are again in season, and with this accommodating fruit at hand the resourceful housekeeper need never be long at loss as to what she shall serve. More often the trouble lies in the embarrassment of riches" sug- gested by this fruit. Bread, cheese and cream are complementary dishes, adding nutritive value and richness, in which the apple is deficient For a change try cooking apples, neatly pared and cored, very slowly in a casserole. Sprinkle with sugar, and add few spoonfuls of water before covering the dish. When cooked, the apples should be whole, tender and red in color.--Boston Cooking School Mag azine,

 And now Al Herford takes great pains to declare that the articles of agreement between Joe Grim and Joe Cans were that Grim is to knock Cans out in six rounds or forfeit the entire purse, not that Cans is to stop Grim. Everyone thought Cans was to do the stopping. But that little affair with F1tzsimmons has caused Herford to make the change.
 In one of the boxing clubs in South Philadelphia the announcer made the statement from the ring that the "Southwork Kid'' and the "Richmond Chicken" were matched for $500. And" said the announcer.

 When Jack Munroe's attention was called to the statement of Jim Jef- fries that he could not drag the miner into fight Munroe said: "Well. if Jeffries thinks I won't fight just let him show that he means business. Nothing would suit me better than to meet the champion. Tn fact, he is the one man I have been anxious to fight ever since our last battle. Jeffries has never shown any inclination to give me return match. although I have been after him for more than a year. I will have to call off many others to meet the champion, but he can have a fight whenever he is. ready to sign ar ticles. Jeffries is blufing when he says I don't want to fight him. Why. .

DUFFY HAS FUNNY IDEA.
Sprinter Wants to Break Records
 Behind a Wind Shield.

Arthur Duffy the Georgetown sprinter, is apparently not satisfied with having run 100 yards in 3-5 seconds, a fifth faster than any other person. On several occasions recently he has unsuccessfully tried to clip a fraction from this mark.
 But now Duffy proposes to cover the distance in better time, and to this end announces he will lower the re. cord at St Louis next spring with the aid of a wind shield. His idea is tc have a shield similar to those used by the harness horses who recently made new records paced by an auto mobile.

Jack Doyle, unhesitatingly picked Bos- ton to win. The result carried out their predictions. The statistics of the series show that the Americans outbatted, outfelded and outscored the Nationals, and in addition Pitts burg twice was unable to put run over the plate. It is foolish to claim the Pirates were beaten because they had only one pitcher. The Bostons beat every twirler Pittsburg sent against them, and beat them decisive ly. Had Doheny been in form it is a safe betting proposition that Collins's men also would have taken his meas ure.

Tom O'Rourke who has probably arranged more hoxing matches than most men. has this to say regarding the proper procedure therefor:
 Engage hall. Ask the proprietor how many people it holds. and cut his statement squarely in two.
 stsEngage wind-up. This will cost considerable money in postage tele- grams. etc. and if one of the fighters isofrom out of town be prepared to be stuck for round "trip tickets. invariably for two. as fighters are timid birds and fear to go more than fifty feet alone.
 Prepare to be stuck up the day be. fore the fight by telegram explaining that one of the wind-up men has bro- ken his hand.

P1ttsburg papers are finding conso- fation in the defeat of the National league champions at the hands of the Boston Americans. One of them sa i'd a few days ago the downfall of the Pirates will convince the members of the team that they are not invincible
 and next season they will play harder than ever to land their fourth pennant so as to get another chance at the Bos- tons or whichever team may win the American league blue ribbon. Pitts 'bufg is the best combination in tho Ma t1onal league, and promises to shatter tradition by winning four successive championships. Certainly it will do so unless there is a big improvement in some of the nakeshift teams which now compose the old organization. but as to beating any winner of the Amer lcan league flag in a series of games that is another question. The clubs or the American league are better bal anced and play faster ball than those or the American league. Before q rsEa3iae was played in the Pittsburg.

SoUTHwoLD's JACK-IN-ARMOR.
 Several of of the old towns on the Suf- folk, England, coast can boast of jack in-armor. One of the best is at South void, that quaint, old-fashioned seaside resort now trying to burst from its chrysalis stage into fashionable but terfiy seaside resort.
 Some years ago the jack used to stand outside the church on 8 bracket over the western arch, and as each hour came round on the clock he struck his hatclet against the bell to announce the time. The poor old jack of carved oak .weathered many storm outside the building, until some wise person, seeing that he was gradually worn away, sug- gssted his being preserved inside the |edifice.
 The Southwold jack-in-armor is a curious looking parsonage. He stands about three feet high, and at the pres- ent moment holds an exalted position near the beautifully carved and painted old screen. He Is perched we'll on high, so he can be seen by most of the con- kECSdLtOl1s tO Wttoh AiC itSW the commencement of the service.
 When the clergy are ready to leave the vestry. the string which goes down jacks right arm is gently pulled, and his arm begins to move up and down, striking the bell as it does so with jacks hatchet, placed for the purpose beside the figure. He makes a consider able noise, and strangers in the con- gregation are somewhat startled at so unusual a disturbance if not prepared beforehand.
 The interesting little figure is painted dark green, relieved here and there with gold. His dress is of armor, and he wears big gauntlet gloves. In the left hand he holds a sword. His helmet
 comes well down over his brows, and his ears are protected by the protecting sidepieces. He does not aspire to a vizor. but his helmet is studded with big nails. He has @ niece, kindly face. a little fiattened at the nose and mouth through long ages. for even wooden jacks will not wear forever. At one time many of the suffolk churches
 boasted jack but to-day these queer
 little gentlemen are rare.-London Queen.

WHAT WE ARE LIVING ON.
Some Speculation as to the Atom in u

Some Speculation as to the Atom in the
 Universe That We Call the Earth.
 Hardly any two scientists agree as to the age of the earth--that Is, as to the length of time which has elapsed since tht earth's crust became solid. Con- sidering the very slow rate at, which rocks are deposited by water, and the immense thickness of the beds of these "stratified" rocks as they are calltd. it seems that at least 1000, 100000 years have passed since the globe evolved in it's present shape out of the whirling mass of incandescent matter which 1t must once have been.
 But Lord Kelvin. arguing from the known rate of loss of heat, declares that not more than 1oo,0oO,ooo years is the limit of time which has passed by since firm rocks appeared and life be- gan upon the earth. More, recently Prof. Tait has shown reason to believe that a tenth of Lord Kelvin's estimate may be nearer the truth. All geologists,
