MuIIsne,s Ragged Error.

Notwithstanding the unfortunate pre- dicament of the locals 1t vas a beauti- full game from a scientific point of view and the only feature to mar the pleasure of the afternoon was the awful work of Umpire Mullane. This man Tony Null lane used to be a crack pitcher and he evidently tried to get even tor all the trouble he had in by-gone days by hand Ing 1t to Minahan at critical stages. IL does not sound well to crit'cisc umpires when we lose, but it is certainly a blot upon the success of the support to force such saffron-hued decisions as were made yesterday upon a Birmingham pubic. One of these awful decisions resulted in run for Little Rock when Gilbert was clearly struck out In the first Inning. but that would not have won the game for us and the only necessity in comnentirg 2 on Mullane's ragged work is the possi- bility of President Kavanaugh taking a birds eye view of such performances
 All Slagtown wants Is an even break for both teams. Very few real sports men. believe that Mullane's bad work was intentional, but if he can't deliver the goods and keep the sport clean there are others.

How Twas Done.

The first runs came in the first inning when after one man was out Gilbert sent bounder to Minahan which was too slow to handle and he was safe at first On Hurleys single and a throw to thicd Gilbert was safe on third and Hurley on second. Householder then slashed out a terrific two-sacker and both men scored
 Birmingham worked hard but couldn' t get man over until the third. Tamsett walked to first and stole second Zin- ram threw the ball wild and Tamsett an- chored safely at third. Mlnahan hit safe and Tamsett trotted in. Minnie stole sec ond and was sacrificed to third but on Vaughan's infield hit was thrown out at the plate.
 The Coal Barons landed another tally in the eighth on Lynchs three base drive to right center and Smiths fly out to center. After that the fire went out and the game went gllmmering after two hours of hard play and much excite ment.
 In this same eighth inning big Pat Wright broke up the game. With ono out ahead of him he laced a beautiful drive to center field which Duffy mis- judged. The fleet fielder being blinded by the dark back ground came in on the hit thinking 1t single and 1t went sail ing over his head to the fence for three bags. Zinrams single then sent Pat in home and the game was presented to the gentlemen from the west

RUSSIAN SOLDIERS NAMES

In 8 general way, the termination
Of "ski" or SKY" found in many
Russian and Polish names, corresponds
10 the German "von" and the French
de-" meaning "of." 1t does not,
however, mean "son of, as some per-
sons suppose. That is expressed by
the termination witch" or witt"
For instance, "Alexsndrovitch"
means the son of Alexander. The
fact that a mans name ends in "ski''
or "sky" also indicates that he be-
longs to or is descended from the nc
bility, or a family having landed pro-
perty. These endings are properly
Polish, "off" and "eff" being the COR
responding Russian terminals. Some
Russian personal names also have the
ending "ski" with the letter 81" add
ed, or ski"
Most of the Russian regiments now
in Manohuria are from Warsaw, OF
the Polish division of the empire, and
this accounts in part for the large
number OF Polish names found in lists
of officers.

Mr.. j. j. Bleich Has Mysterious
Assailant Saturday.
Struck in the head by Something anc
Painfully Hurt.

Mr.. John bleich, the well known
Broadway jeweler. was the victim 'of
a mysterious assault Saturday night
between and 10 O'Clock as he was
going out Clark street between Eighth
and Ninth towards his home.
As he passed the alley known as
Hoffman's" something whizzed by
and grazed the left side of his head.
It barely broke the skin, but was suffi-
cient to painfully injure Mr.. Bleich.
He did not see anyone, and has mo idea
who threw it, what ii was, nor Of the
persons motive.
He looked about in the vicinity yes
terdsy morning, but could not find the
missile.
At the time it was thrown it was
very dark, and Mr.. Bleich had no de-
sire to explore the alley for his assail-
ant The wound is trivial, but Mr..
Beioh is greatly mystified to know
what it was that hit him, and wheth.
or or not someone wanted. to rob him.

SENATOR GEORGE ,. HoAa

when the venerable statesman sank
into a state of coma from which all
efforts to rouse him proved futile.
Senator Hoar has been in i'll health
since last winter. and even when at
tending the sessions of the senate he
was obliged to exercise extreme care
lest his exertions should overcome him
At that time he was troubled with
lumbago. and the death of his wife
at Washington proved such a blow
that he never recovered entirely from
its effects. Toward the close OF the
last session of congress he was fire.
quently absent from the sessions OF
the senate and remained at his hotel.
He came TO his home here soon aft
er the adjournment. apparently recov-
cred from the attack of lumbago. Late
In May he attended the bi-centennial
celebration I'm the town OF Sutton. wor-
cester county, and made a speech for
more than half an hours duration in
the open air at the dedication of a
memorial tablet to General Rufus Put
man on the site of Putman's BIRTH
place. Mr.. Hoar made an historical
address, eulogizing General Pullman az
one of the country's greatest men.
A few weeks later Senator Hoar
made an informal afternoon address
at the English high school on the &C.
casion of the presentation to the city
of some copies OF Stuart's portrait of
Washington by the Daughters of the
Revolution. This was Senator Hoar's
last appearance in public life. During
the latter part of July. and up to Aug.
IL, he remained in his home. and much
OF the time stayed in bed. He received
visitors daily and dictated many letters
TO his secretary.
Aug. IL he had a sinking turn caused
by the weak action of the heart. His
condition seriously alarmed his phy-
sician and his family. On Sept. 25 Il
was announced by his son that he was
failing rapidly, and he lapsed at times
into Inconsistencies. From that time
until his death he was unable to take
nourishment. but his constitution en-
aoled him to resist death for such a |
length Of time that even his physician |
was surprised

deared himself in a measure beyond
that ever given any other man. that the
venerable gentleman had passed away.
The state of profound stupor. in
which the indication of the approach
OF death was made known. embraced
the senator for forty hours. The pa
tent expressed wish in his early ILL
ness that he might die peacefully and
without a struggle and such a death
came to him. Besides DIR. Gilman, the
senator's two children. lockwood and
Miss Mary. were at the bedside until
the end. F. w. Doherty. messenger

F. H0AR DIES
Distinguished Citizen BreatheS His
Last Early Friday.
LONG In PUBLIC LIFE.
Served Four Terms In Lower House
ami Five Successive Times Was
Elected Member Of the
United States Senate.

Worcester, Mass, Oct. 1-George
Frisbie Hoar, senior United States SEN
ator from Massachusetts. died at his
home in this city at 1875 o'clock Friday
morning. The end followed period
of unconsciousness that had continued
since early Tuesday. and came so sud-
denly that only the attending physi-
clans were aware of the exact moment
of dissolution.
The attending physicians despaired
OF the senator's life six weeks ago, but
such was the vitality exhibited by the
distinguished patient that even they
were surprised. and the public was at
times led to cherish faith in an ulti-
mate recovery.
On Sunday last. however, all hope
was abandoned after a last unsuccess-
full attempt to administer medicine and
nourishment. Brief intervals were fol-
lowed by longer durations of uncon-
seriousness until Tuesday morning.
