ADIRONDACK WOODS.
Many Visitors Enjoying Their De-
ights-Patriotism to the Fore.

The glorious Fourth Just glorious in the
Adirondacks as anywhere else The celebration
may not have been noisy, but it was none the
less patriotic
The exaggerated reports that have been pub
Hshed from time TO time recently, concerning
forest hree In the Adrondacks, have proved
noying to those convcrsant with the facts. why
where those forest fires heard SO much
about in the cty?" IS the first question OF the
new arrival at Of the Adirondack hotels, and
then the whole story has to be repeated in detail
For the benefit of the many prospective new ar
rivals il should be made plain that with the sin
gle exception Of Adirondack Lodge Adirondack
summer resort has been affected by the fires. Not
only the hotels themselves free OF all damage,
but the forests in the vicinity Of each were not
burned. The mountains are just as beautifully
blue they stretch away TO meet the horizon;
the forests just green and inviting, and the
lakes charming, as they have been year in
and year cut

Mr. Snow raised the question in enter

And when "Screppy," wild with rage,
tried to knock the ball out Of the lot.
only to end it straight up in the air,
Hawley, by his antics, made the crowds
roar with laughter. And Hawley was
not the only pitcher who could do this
either, but few of them ever indulge in
such joshing tactics. Instead they
keep their ideas secret and then work
the batsman to the queens taste.
Naturally, ball cranks and players are
wondering what will be the next move
to hamper the pitchers effectiveness in
the interest of heavy batting. Some of
the wise men have been talking of
making the number of strikes four in
stead of three and reducing the number
of called balls from four to three, with
the foul-strike rule cut out. Others
have discussed the advisability of max
ing the pitcher keep both feet on the
ground while the further suggestion has
been made to put the pitchers rubber
back five feet more. Whatever change
is made in the course of the next yeaI
or So the rule makers win have in mind
| increased batting, which, OF course
means less effective pitching, so that
the twirlers are bound to suffer. But
before making any changes Of this
kind, it might be worth while to thinl
of the Brotherhood games in 1S90,whicf
were played with a liveier ball thar
that used by the National League. TIL,
ball had more rubber in it than now
and the batting was terrific. with large
scores. But when the Brotherhood col
lapsed the lively bali disappeared and
has never been seriously thought oi
since. President Johnson. of the Ameri-
can League, says that the rules should
remain as they are barring the foul
strike rule, and that in his estimation
radical changes would really hurt tho
game. But Johnson admits that the
pitchers are getting the upper hand
rapidly and that batting is not what il
ought to be. 1t is an interesting prob
lem which will require much time and
study to solve. Meanwhile, the pitcher.
will keep on scheming.

GOOD BOARDING HOUSES
There Is a Scarcity of Place:
Where Good Accommo-

Good boarding houses are at a pre-

are tolerable are either filled or charge
such exorbitant rates that the ordinary
wage Garner cannot afford to pay them.
There is a crying need for boarding
houses wnere good wholesome food can
be had at moderate price. Young men
who are now working at the bottom OF
the ladder. and who do not receive
enough salary to afford TO pay the high
prices charged by the hotels are forced
10 stop at places intolelrable 40 them.
Within month there will be close
upon a hundred young men come here
hi a body. They are the clerks Of the
Pennsylvania railroad. which will move
some OF it's offices to this city from
Philadelphia.
These men will have to find boarding
houses and judging from the difficulty
now experienced in getting suitable
places, they will experience consider
able trouble.
Young women also are often forced
TO 80 &c places distasteful to them
There are many lady boarders here
girls that are stenographers. clerks and
milliners that are now stopping In
places not t. their liking by any means

as they never experienced in theii
