Excitement in Last Inning.

In the last inning there was plenty of
excitement, and 1t looked for few minutes
as though both sides would score. Murphy
reached first on Moran's error, and went to
second on Hoffmans single into right.
Monte Cross drove hot one at Coughlin
which the latter turned into a double play
by touching third retiring Murphy and
then whipping the ball over to first in time
to retire the batter. Shrek singled clearly
into right and Delehanty made a beautiful
throw to the home plate, Hoffman being re-
tired there by nervy interference and
touch out of Drifts. The play was of the
thrilling sort. and brought the spectators to
their feet with shouts of approval.
The Senators came up for their last turn
at the bat to do or die, and 1t looked for a
minutes though they wouldnf expire.
Setback started the business with double
against the left field fence. but Ryan flew
out to Hoffman, Delehanty went out, third
to first, after knocking two long fouls over
the left field fence, and Coughlin ended the
agony with a pop fly to Murphy. 1t was
beautiful game to look at. and the best
playing won out.

The Senators were given a royal recep-
ton Yesterday on their homecoming after
months disastrous tour of the American
League cities, fully $500 persons turning
out to see the game between them and the
Athletics of Philadelphia. Once more the
sluggers of the local team failed to hit, and
the Quakers walked away with the game by
the score of l to 0.
The irrepressible and only Reuben Wad-
dell was on the rubber for the Athletics,
and he gave a mastery exhibition of the
pitchers art. Two lonely hits were all
that could be made by the Senators, single
by Coughlin into right field and a double
by Setback up against the left field fence.
For the first six innings the Senators went
out in regular order, not man reaching
first, but in the last three Waddell mixed
up bass on balls and a hit by pitcher with
the two hits, and in this way broke up the
regular retirement. Back of Waddell the
Athletics played a superb game, not a mis-
play of any sort marring their work, while
the two Crosses at third and short made
plays that brought forth unstinted applause
from the spectators.
Opposed to Waddell on the rubber was

Ster deserved a victory, as he also pitched

ENGLAND,s room SUPPLY.

1t is rather remarkable that it has
taken so long to arouse the people of
England to the Importance of making
better provision for guarding her
means of securing a supply Of food
in the event of war with a strong ma
ton. It is we'll known of course that
England cannot feed her own people.
Indeed she does not produce half
enough to supply the demand of her
markets for bread and meat. ma
ton at war with her, having a strong
navy, might almost dictate it's own
terms, if it could succeed in cutting
off her food supply.
England depends upon this country
for a large part of what her people
eat. Our wheat fields, cattle farms
and orchards are drawn on literally
to keep England's population from
starving. If we should get into a
war with her we might give her a
great deal of trouble to keep her popu-
lation from starving, if we desired to
starve her into submission. OF course
she could get wheat and meat from
her colonies, but with our swift cruisers
we might prevent the food supplies
from reaching her.
At last, however, a royal commission
has been appointed to consider. what
can be DONE in addition to maintaining
strong navy to insure greater Sc
curfty to the food supply. 1t is not
easy to see what recommendation it
can make, except to build more fast
cruisers and battleships.
The subject is one that deeply in
terests the English people. Doubtless
they dream of being cut off from all
sources of food supply and of starving
to death. The report of the commits
sion will be awaited with much more
than ordinary interest

THE COMING AND GOING OF PEO-
PIE.

The number of immigrants arriving
in this country is greater now than
ever before. Even from England there
has been a very noticeable increase in
the number of arrivals. OF course the
motive of these people in coming to
the United States is to better their
condition. The higher wages paid
here attracts them.
1t is claimed that rs per cent. of the
population of New York City Is now
composed of foreigners. If such is the
case it is easily understood why 1t is
so difficult there to enforce what are
known as Sunday laws.
But while hundreds of thousands of
people are coming to us by way of our
Atlantic ports many thousands are
leaving us for Western Canada. 1t is
stated in the Cosmopolitan magazine
for April that during the last two years
more than 10000 persons left North and
South Dakota, Minnesota, Illinois, Wis
consin, Montana and Utah and took
farms in Canada West, taking with
them property and stock valued at
more than $30,O00OOO. In the three
years preceding at least 10000 other
settlers went from the United States to
Canada. In fact there are reasons for
saying that since 1890 a community of
American farmers numbering 1S5000
has grown up in Western Canada. The
lands are very fertile and these Amer
lean farmers are the wheat and flax
growers and cattle raisers of the sec
ton.
Indeed, so great has been the loss of
some of the states mentioned that their
Legislatures are approprinting large
sums to advertise their resources and
| secure immigrants. OF course the peo-
pie who left these Northwestern states
of ours We're not dissatisacd with this
country. They went to Western Can
ada simply because they were able to
sell their farms at good prices and to
buy equally as good land for less than
! half the price at which Shey sold their

are making an effort to get immi-

CAUSE AND CARE OF CANCER.

The rapid increase in the number of
caused bacteriologists and toxicolo-
gists to give special attention to the
disease with the hope of finding its
cause and also a remedy. A group of
workers in research fields that has
been giving attention to this disease is
connected with the Medical College of
Cornell University. According to a
report in the New York Tribune one
of these workers, DIR. Bertram H. Buzz
ton, well known as a scientist, will
shortly read a paper in which he will
say that the cause of cancer has been
discovered. A summary of the results
of the investigation at Cornell is as
follows:
First-That cancer is due to the
chemistry of the blood.
I Second-That every part or tissue
of a cancer has the power of pro-
ducing fermentation.
Z Third-That in their powers of caus-
ing fermentation the cancerous tissues
are akin to the tissues of the stomach.
\ Fourth-That by proving this theory
. tiAC NAASOlJ that tdllCGI WAS uu6 10 d
parasite was disproved.
1t seems that when DR.. Buxton be-
came satisfied that cancer was de-
veloped from certain chemical changes
in the blood he set to work to find a
cue. He claims he has succeeded to
his satisfaction in finding a cure for
sarcoma, which is a kind of cancer.
The cure is erysipelas germs injected
into the blood of the sufferer from
cancer.
According to the reports a number
of cases of sarcoma have been cured
in Bellevue Hospital by means of cry
sipelas germs. The cancer patient be-
comes afflicted with erysipelas, and
when he is cured of the latter disease
he is also free from cancer.
Unless we are mistaken the fact that
erysipelas germs will cure certain
forms of cancer is not new. Still, 1t
would be better to await the paper
that DIR. Buxton is to read before
taking issue with any of the finding;
of the doctor and his associates as a
result of their investigations.

Willie Was Right.

She is a very charming little kin
scholars dearly, although they some
times put her to confusion-but that
is the story, says the Baltimore News.
The other day there was visitors at
the kindergarten and the cherubic
ct ildren were doing themselves and
their teacher proud. They went
through all their songs and games in
a manner 10 excite wonder and de-
light in the breasts of the mothers
who were present. Finally some one
of the youngsters demanded that they
sing the boating song; that is, he sug-
regulated disciple of Frobel never de-
mands anything; it is wicked to de-
mand.
They sang the boating song Justify,
keeping time the while with their
imaginary oars.
(Which way is the boat pointed,
dears ?" asked the teacher as the
youngsters rested from their labors.
South they replied as one man.
If there is anything that the kinder
garten child does know it is the points
of the compass.
"And the boat is going south, then,
isn't it?' asked the nice little teacher.
Yes Miss JONES'" rang the chorus,
all except one small voice. 1t said:
Going NORTH
why, Willie" said the teacher,
pleasantly haven't we just said that
the boat is pointed toward the south.
Then, of course, we must be going
SOUTH
Going north" replied Willie, dog
gedly.
If there hadn't been so many mothers
present the little teacher would not
have cared, but it was exasperating.
TRY to understand me, dear" she
said, still sweetly, though what her
innermost thoughts We're it is not for
us to know, Since the boat is point
ed toward the south. and the lowers
are facing the SOUTH then we must
be travelling south, mustn't we?"
"Going north" said Willie with a
fne disregard for her feelings.
At this juncture Willie's mother
arose from her place among the visi-
tors. He is trying to tell you. Miss

rowboat moves in an opposite direc-
ton from that in which the oarsmen
face"
