Mechanics, which warns the reader.
however, that he must not expect to
grow gold eagles from dollars. Says
the writer: 1T has been found that
gold nuggets under favorable condi-
lions actually increase in size. Gold
is known to have grown on mine tim
bers which have long been immersed
in mine water. In the California State
Mining Bureau Museum there is a
specimen of piece of jointed cap and
post taken from the Comstock, where
1t had been under water for years. in
which gold has formed in the joints
and pores of the wood. Gold is con-
stantly being formed in rocks and
veins and placers. Just what it is that

Industry might be born and all other
kinds of farming save the growing of
gold might temporarily be abandoned,
The formation and growth are due to
mechanical and chemical action. AS in
the case of the animal or vegetable
existing gold has existed in some other
state before assuming it's present form.
Waters which percolate through the
earth's crust are said to contain SUBJ
stances from which gold is formed.
Thus gold, like the animal and vege-
table must have water in order to
thrive. The gold in the water is de-
posted when il meets the proper pre-
cipitant. The precipitant may be an

How long will it take Venezuela to
pay herself out of debt to foreign coun-
tries under the terms proposed by Min
lister Bowen? The proposition is to APP
ply 80 per cent. per annum of the Gus
toms receipts of the ports of LaGuayra
and Puerto Cabello to the liquidation
of the obligations. An estimate places
the debt at figures between $4,000, 900
and s37, 1000, 900. The customs receipts
at Puerto Cabello last year were ST.
274,42O, and those at LaGuayra were
not much greater or less. 1t is call
culated that the two ports will not
collect more than $2,500,0OO a year reve-
nues. Taking 80 per cent. of this sum
per year to be applied to the debts, it
will be seen that quite considerable
period will have elapsed before Vene-
zuela gets her receipt in full.

put out hot grounder, but it was
gobbled by Gruebner and there was
one down. Graham next up smashed
one down past short just u trifie too
hot to get in front of and Brennan
moved up. Then it came O'Leary's
turn. He had not hit up to this time,
but he had a hit coming and he
proceeded to get it, safe one against
the centerfield fence. Two runs. Lis

flew out to left. Next it was Dryers
turn, but Manager Donnelly, who had
been sitting on the bench, made up
his mind that he could do it better,
so he picked up a bat and brought
O'Leary home with beautiful drive
to center. This told the score, and
the side retired at Latimer's out.

With two new men in the lineup
there had to be Il REIMBURSEMENT, so
Brennan went to right, Graham went

so hard that it flattened out like a
pancake and sailed until it couldn't
sail any further and finally brought
up against the fence away over in the
southeast corner of the lot. He
stopped on third. O'Learv could not
duplicate his former performance and
he went down on an infield drive.
But Lister had n package with him
and he proceeded to deliver it. H.
Walters picked up the ball exactly
where he did after Graham hit it and
the game was over. Score:

MANY GO TO SPEND DAY
AT THE ILLINOIS CAPITAL

The Rock Island road took out a
good-sized excursion to Springfield
Saturday night, about $50 leaving
this city and Moline to spend the day
with the boys of the 9th regiment at
camp and to see the sights of the
capital. 1t was one of the most or
derby Saturday night excursions ever
run out of the city, say the railroad
men. 1t was also one of the best
equipped. Seven cars were in the
train, two being chair cars and the
other high back day coaches. The
train left here late in the evening and
arrived at Springfield about 1870 in
the morning. \ pleasant day was
put in and the return was made under
favorable circumstances, the train
reaching this city at Il. III. today.

that we would rather have won from
than Decatur. The team should be
encouraged in its race to catch Bloom
ingtCn and thus make an interesting
finish to the season.
The Decatur men are truly said to
be gentlemen. The only act of row
dyism was that of II. Walters when
he struck Umpire Hart with the ball,
fer which he was fined. He had no
kick for he touched Dickcy exactly
on top of the sack. Manager McFar-
land did not do any ''beefiug" about
it.

Commodores Were Puzzled.

Saturdays game was one of those
satisfying ones in which the interest
was kept up till the end and then the
end was of the right sort. John Ar
thur was put up against long and
ungainy youth named Ballet.
Though the latter was no novice Ar
thur clearly had him outclassed.
Eleven of the "Bumpsticks" hit at the
empty atmosphere, and three hits was
all they could get. Rock Islands
scoring was done in the third when
three runs were batted in with the
assistance of pair of passes and a
poorly executed fielder's choice. In
the fourth Decatur tied with two,
having one in the third. II happened
that only two men were given passes
by Arthur and both scored. In the
eighth, after long succession of 0's

OLD WINTER AGAIN.


Oh Minisr i coming again. alack.

Tie cares not pin for a shiyerng back;
He's ssucy old chap 10 white and black;
He whistles his chills with a wonderful knsck,
For jolly old fellow is be!
witty old fellow this Winter is,
mighty old fellow Of glee!
He cracks his jokes on the pretty sweet miss,
The wrukly old msid unti. to kiss
And freezes the dew Of their lips,--for this
Is the way with such fellows as he.
Old Winter is frolicsome fellow, wot;
He is Wild in his humor, and free;
He'll whistle along for the want Of thought"
And set all the warmth OF your furs at naught,
And rutiie the laces the pretty girls bought;
For irolicsome fellow is be.
Old Winter is blowing his gusts along,
And merriy shaking the tree
From morning till night be will sing bis song
Now moaning and short. now bowling and long;
His voice is loud for his lungs are strong;
merry old fellow is be.
Old Winters merry old chap, wsen,-
AS wicked as ever you'll see;
He withers the flowers so fresh and green,
And bites the pert nose OF the mics OF sixteen,
AZ she hippantly walks in madehly sheen;
wicked old fellow is he.
Old Winters tough old fellow for blows,
AS tough rs ever you'll STE;
He'll trip up your trotters and rend your clothes,
And s.iifen your limbs from fingers to toes;
He minds not the cry of his friends or his foes
A driving old fellow is he
A cunning old fellow is Winter, they say,
cunning old fellow is he;
He peeps in crevices day by day.
To see how we are passing our time away,
And see all our doIngs from grave to gay,
And now he is peeping at me.
