Democrats Getting Together.

The democrats in the nation continue to get together"-somewhat as the cats of Kilkenny met, you understand. In pursuance of the campaign of har- mony, the Brooklyn Eagle, a leading democratic organ of the east suggested a few days ago that the Hon. William Jennings Bryan may find his right to a seat in the next national convention contested. "The report against seating him may be presented by David B. Hill," said the Eagle, "and may be de- clared carried by Grover Cleveland in ! the chair.''
 To which the Omaha World-Heral1 of which MT. Bryan was editor when nominated the first time for the presi- dency, replies:
 "There are great many mighty good democrats in this country who would
 not object to being thrown out of the
 kind of democratic convention that | would permit Grover Cleveland to pre- side over it's deliberations.' MT. Bryan himself continues to dis cuss in the Commoner the merits of his fellow democrats as they are suggested for the nomination, and so far he has found each of them lacking in the , Bryan democracy.

Pummeling and Publicity.

Wellesley goes in heavily for physical culture nowadays, and it seems to have produced a female Glass in Miss Mary L. Rogers, who made her first day as a teacher at the Pawtucket high school forever memorable by thrashing the captain of the foot ball team, a six footer, and reducing to submission an other youth who plays foot ball. Ut may be-" says the young Amazon. "that the measures taken to demonstrate that I would maintain discipline were somewhat drastic, but what l did Was entirely justifiable. I regret that the matter must become public, but as long as it must the facts should be stated, and I believe that it will have q good effect. If it will result in better disci- pline, it will be something accom- plished.'' Miss Rogers evidently be- lieves in pummelling and publicity, and while the spirit moves her, will she please attend to the poets who continue to build limericks about Nan and her adventures ?-New York Sun.

pean playing cards. A kindled illus tration is the use of the split arrow as visiting card. Games in which two sided wooden dice are employed, and in which counting is done on a circular or cross shaped diagram. constitute a third group of instances. Finally. mention Is made of sports and cere- monies in which darts are thrown at a rolling hoop that has a spider web or netting on it.
 The matter is not discussed at suffl- cient length to be altogether convinc- ing. Professor Culin does not give the full fruit of his own extensive investi- gations. .> One or two of the cases which he cites, such as the Aztec game of pa tolli, have been used as arguments in support of views diametrically opposed to his own. Nor does he clear up such puzzles as the existence in America of articles of jade. 2 mineral that has not yet been found here unwrought. Much uncertainty remains, too, about the relative age of the American and Asi- atic usages which he cites. If there were any definite chronology, so that comparison could be made, as with the Babylonian and Hebrew legends. one might be able to say with less hes itation which was parent and which was child.
 It must be conceded that the time has not arrived for reaching satisfactory conclusions in regard to the origin of American civilization. More headway
 has been made in that direction than
 toward a decision about mans anti
 quity on this continent but concerning
 both the wisest scholars are still good deal in the dark. Some day discoveries may be made which will fix approxi- mately the time when the human race made it's first appearance in America.
 If it shall then appear probable that the development was practically contempo- raneous with the earliest traces of | primitive man in Europe and Asia; the case for an independent evolution Of i, civilization would be greatly strength ened. At present the preponderancc of
 testimony is in favor of the view that
 both the stock and the culture were i imported from Asia. Since the world is not yet in position to pass judgment. | it is not unreasonable to sympathiZe with Professor Culin's notions. espe- cially since he puts them guardedly. He
 does not go so far as to avow, as one
 might expect from the title of his ar ticle, that Asia learned everything from | the western continent. He merely suggests that America may have con- l tributed, to an extent usually unimaS-
 ined, her share of what is now the
 worlds civilization That is not a
 radical suggestion by any means.-New 1 York Tribunp

"He simply stopped short of standing the foreground when he was confronted with the alternative of keeping up the statehood fight or forcing an extra ses- sion, and 1 am inclined to think that there is room for honest difference of opinion between members of this body when confronted by such an alterna- tive.
 MT. President, the democratic mem bers Of this body, with two exceptions, were honestly and sincerely in favor of the admission of the three territories mentioned ir the omnibus bill that came from the house, and they volun- teered to follow the senator from Penn sylvania, knowing the solid front that was presented on the democratic side, because we thought that by thus doing we could strip from the struggle a po- litical complexion and not give to the opponents of statehood a chance to say that it was a democratic measure and that Ct was being urged for demo- cratic purposes.
 "In standing for statehood I knew. and my democratic colleagues knew, that New Mexico was as unerring re- publican as the state of Rhode Island
 that the.status of the politics of Ari- Zona at least was in doubt; and that Oklahoma would in all human proba-
 bility make a republican state. But We stood for statehood because we believed that these territories possessed the area and the population and the character of popula ton and the assets that were necessary to make them coequals with the other states of this union. we did not allow the fear of politica diversity in the event of their admis- sion to stand between us and what wS conceived to be our duty, not only as American citizens, but as members ot

America the Cradle of Asia.

Professor Stewart Culin, the well known Philadelphia ethnologist, is not a believer in the theory that all of Americas prehistoric civilization was derived from Asia. In Harper's Monthly for March he presents some of the evidence which leads him to think that many of the customs com mon to localities in both of these great geographical divisions originated in what is perhaps erroneously called the new world Divination and gambling with thin sticks. like split arrows. which were decorated and arranged in suits of nine. are among these practices.

Chivally.

No doubt that strenuous school teacher who used her fists upon two stalwart youths to enforce upon them the necessity of obeying the schools rules and regulations was venturesome to a certain degree. But to prove that she dared this form of punishment be- cause she was extremely athletic or very brave and courageous seems like nonsense. The true inwardness of the situation may be found in the fact that the pupils she attacked were as chival- rous as they were strong. Of course. they would not strike back and she knew it.-Boston Transcript.

AGE-HERALD'S BASEBALL
 CLUB IS HAPPY AGAIN

up the catcher on wild pitches. For years he has kept a pair of base run ming stockings and they add materially to his swiftness. To join in the celebra- ton last night he donned the base run ming stockings and his feet worked so fastly that it was necessary to place a treadmii under his desk that he might finish his nightly labors.
 With Jimmy in the game it is proba- ble no shortstop will be used. as he can cover both positions easily. With the stick he is equally a wonder and though he has not been in active operation since he pinched that tip foul off snitz in 1888 he can wield the willow just as strong. All of the left field fence will be braced securely this morning so as to stand the onslaught of Jimmy's drives and a netting will be stretched over the score board to save expenses, as the Newspaper league never attempts to re- call lost balls. Jimmy Is undoubtedly the heaviest hitter in the world. He now tips the scales at 2s6%.
 The manager of the Ledger team was prylng around for information last night and he got it. After hearing the news about Jimmy he simply notified the sec retary that he might as well give the Age-Herald credit for one more game. In other words he surrendered without looking at his cards.
 The game will be called promptly at 4:o2 o'clock and grand stand tickets are now on sale at the city hall, court house. government building the Apollo billiard hall and the Joe Wheeler restaurant.

The Age-Herald baseball headquarters presented a scene of violent eommotion last night, and when J. Troublesome Evans, bat carrier for the Ledger, heard the news he spent a sleepless night. A telegram was received from President Kavanaugh announcing that Jimmy Watson, the great second baseman. would be allowed to play with the Age Herald in the contest next Wednesday afternoon. Judge Kavanaugh found that all the laws regarding Jimmys release from Chicago were barred by the statute of limitations and that no good reason could be given for not allowing him to play.
 Immediately on receipt of the telegram the flag was run up on the top of the Age-Herald building and two quarts of red ink were thrown on the press Play CTS and the regular hands ran about the office shouting and hugging each other and there was a general jollificatfon.
 As Jimmy is 150 pounds over weight he immediately went to work on the treadmill and expects to be trained down by Wednesday. He has had no field prac- tice up to this time on account of his in- ability to secure a uniform that fit. He Is having one made to special order and will be in trim tomorrow night at 9:26 o'clock.

Wiseman will join New Orleans at Shreveport, and a deal was made with Memphis by which Atz is given in exchange for Evans and Gfoerer, who will also be at Shreveport. Wiseman and Gfoerer will make up the outfleld with RielSet. Evans will play second, and Montgomery go to short. Kurtz, who has made good so far. will play first, while Law catches.

sLAG PILE SETTINGS.

Mathematical fans who spend their time studying dope have figured that Vaughan Whistler, Stafford and Beck are the cham plon batsmen of the league. This same dope has it that Vaughan, Whistler and Beck are tied for first honors.
 A Nashville paper of recent date is of inc opinion that Doc Wiseman will yet consent to play with Birmingham. The Iron Men are very much in need of his services at the present stage of the game,
 Birmingham Is playing some great ball this year." said Abner Powell Friday night as he passed through here en route 10 Misslssipppi. "and the people have no reason to kick. If you fellows had had the percentage you now have this time last wear you would have been in third or fourth place The teams are so closely punched your playing don't show up as wei as 1t should"
 Notwithstanding the fact that Birming- ham is in seventh place by winning live consecutive games and the other teams losing. the Iron Men could go to second place. Birmingham is only about eight games behind the leaders.
 Newt Fisher says that Harry Vaughan Is the most valuable first besaman in the league. Without him he says the Birming- ham team would not be in the running
 The Iron Makers go to Atlanta today for three or may be four games and the fans expect nothing less than half of them. Young Triton will probably be given his first trial in the City of Hot Air
 Tom O'Brien says Ed Lawler is one of the unluckiest hitters he ever saw. On the recent western trip Eddie lined them out lime and again but they landed just right for some fast fielder. For the past few days he has been landing them safe.
 Jimmy O'Brien Is working hard on his stiff knee and expects to be in the game when the team returns. So far he is un- able to straighten out the injured limb but the stiffness is rapidly yielding to a regular massage treatment. Jimmy was very anxious to take the eastern trip but his injury would not permit
