 The result of the meet was in doubt until after the running of the last event, the 220-yards hurdle. Lightner of Harvard woh. but Schick, who had broken down after the finish of the. 10O-yards dash, was beaten out by Moulton of Yale, thus giving Yale the1 victory.

TWO BASEBALL TEAMS LOST? Fears That the Milwaukee and Peoria
 Mines Have Been Drowned.

|. Milwaukee, Wis, June That two baseball teams have met death in the flood which devastated North Topeka is the belief at Milwaukee and Peoria. Yesterday 1t was learned that the To- cal baseball managers have been tele- graphing to all accessible points in Kansas in search of the missing teams, but to no purpose. The teams have disappeared as completely as though . their train had been washed into the Kaw river.
 Three days ago the two teams, each fourteen men strong, with a few hang ers-on, left Manhattan for Kansas City, on the way to Milwaukee and Peoria The two teams had been playing in Colorado and had started for a series of games on their home fields. Since Thursday they have not been heard from.
 Telegrams to all cities on their way have been fruitless. The players have not reached Kansas City.
 Topeka reports are that the two hines never reached that place, the train on which they left Manhattan having disappeared on the way. There are some trains which have been helc up in interior Kansas by washouts but in every case, a list, partial al least, has been telegraphed to the nearby cities. The baseball mems train has not been heard from. Prayers were offered at two loca churches yesterday for the lives of two of the Milwaukee men who belong tt |1,a Jaoa1 +ao1,1 TNho 1nca1 mana gers have, nearly given up hope for the safe ty of the men. The Milwaukee team was to have played here to-day. Man ager Duffy of Milwaukee is on tut train with his men. Joe Connor ant George Lachance were former mem bers of the Milwaukee team.

CITY AMATEUR LEAGUE.
Two Good Games Played Saturday at
 the Driving Park

Two games of base baM were played at the Driving park on Saturday before a fair attendance. The first game was between tine St Josephs and the North
 Ends. There was much rivalry in this game and very many believed that the North Ends would have cinch on the game because they had secured several players from the other teams; but the St Josephs had also strengthened and the result was a defeat for the North End lads. Moran, who, by the way, is son of Thomas Moran, the keeper of the Brookside home, pitched a nasterly game. His opponents tried time after time to rattle him, but he never let up 8 minute during the nine innings. He was given the best kind of support. Bates pitched well for the North Ends, but his support was wretched. The score: z4e@t.

 The fans of Holyoke were a happy lot Saturday night and they had req son to be for their ball team had hand ed out two defeats to their rivals, the Springfelds. At the first game in the morning, which was played in Hol- yoke, $500 people were in attendance, and the game drifted into pitchers battle in which Charley Clancy came out on top.
 In the afternoon one of the biggest crowds that ever attended ball game in New England crowded into Hamden park in Springfield. It was estimat- ed that at least 10000 people were in attendance and the management had made poor arrangements for the hand ling of the crowds. > There were only five. regular policemen on. hand and several deputies. The people crowd ed all over the outfeld and the infield as we'll and the game was stopped sev- eral times. Two dozen balls were used in the game as ball batted into the crowd never came back. Vickers, who was in the box for Holyoke, must have enjoyed that, for he not only beat the leaders of the league, but shut them out without a run. It was an awful defeat for the home team and the crowds went away disgusted at the miserable showing, of the Connor- ites. The game was called at the end of the seventh inning as the supply of balls was exhausted. The scores:

The second game brought together the old rivals, the Brooklyn Athletic club and the PAstimes. That was a battle that was we'll worth going a long distance to see. The PastiInes took the lead right in the very first in- ming, when errors were plentiful on the Brooklyn side. It looked as though the west end lands were going to have walk-over, but the Brooklyns fought the game to 8 finish. The Pastimes scored four runs in the first inning and the Brooklyns secured three in the three in the third. The Pastimes got another in the fifth, and in the sixth the Brooklyns went to the front, scoring three more runs. In the eighth the Pastirnes got another run and tied the score. The ninth was a break-neck finish and the roofing could have been heard miles away. The Brooklyns managed to smash the ball hard and forced the winning run across the plate in the last half of the ninth. The score: ..e ...

not an honorable custom. This is shown
IN the case Of Shrewsbury, England.
An extract from Parry's "Parliaments
and Councils Of England Of a case of
bribery, with its punishment, in 1871
shows how long the pernicious custom
has been in practice: Thomas Long, "a
very simple man and unfit to serve, is
questioned how he came to be elected.
He confesses that he gave the mayor
of Westbury and another "A for his
place. They are ordered to repay this
sum, and a fine of EGO is to be assessed

relics in some religious shrines. Bud
dha's tooth is preserved in an Indian
temple. the Cingalese worship the tooth
of a monkey, while the elephants and
sharks teeth serve similar purpose

ers respectively. The Siamese were
formerly the possessors Of the tooth of
a sacred monkey, which they valued
very highly, but in a war with the
Portuguese they lost the holy grinder
and had to pay $3,5OO,OOO to get II
back again. 1t is now kept in a small
