wants all games possible for practice
Dunkle Is about due for today's game in
Boston, and Tannehilf should pitch for
Boston.
Reuben" Waddell may be a trife eccen-
trio, but he can certainly pitch ball.
Shortstop Osteen left with the Senators
yesterday morning and continued on to
Worcester. Pitcher McGiH also accompa-
MED Osteen.
The veteran base ball writer. Father
Chadwick of Brooklyn, will accompany the
New York team to this city for next Fri
days game. He will go to Baltimore by
invitation of Manager Hanlon to witness
the opening of the Eastern League season
In that city.
The Brooklyns and Bostons played a reg

throng. the police refusing to interfere The
New York Americans played q game at
Ridgewood, so it seems that Sunday ball in
New York Is among the possibilities.
Jack Carr OF this city. who made quite
reputation as a fielder with Dubuque last
season, has now captured the indianapolis
people through his good batting.
Phil Geier has replaced Joe Stanley In
BOston's outfield, the latter being unable to
get good start as vet with the bat.
In reckoning I'D tho championship win
ners. the Athletics should not be over
looked. They are all 'above the average
when 1t comes to running, can field and bat
very well. and In teamwork they outrank
the Bostons. If Waddell remains in the
straight and narrow path the Athletics will
be factors In the race all the way. Stick

During the practice season and in the games

CoLUMBIAN's FIRST.
Gallaudet Defeated in a rd-Hiting
Game.

The base ball game Saturday afternoon
between the Gallaudet and Columbian Uni
versities was the first victory for the Co
lumbar team this season. The game took
place on the Van Ness Park diamond and
ended with a score of IS to Is. Both teams
hit the ball at will and fielded loosely. The
Columbian team started out as If they were
going to have everything their own way.
They scored three runs in the opening inn
Ing and nine In the second. giving them
lead OF eight runs up to the fifth inning,
when the Gallaudet boys found Harris
curves and from the fourth inning scored
fourteen runs. Harris, who was on the
slab for the Columbian team was doing
excellent work until the fifth inning, when
he weakened. In fielding Stevenson and
Wilcox did the best work, and at the bat
Price led with five hits for Columbian.
Hunter did the best work with the stick for
the "Mutes." The next game scheduled for
Columbian Is with the Washington and Lee
University team on the Van Ness Park field.

Effect Of Recent Pension Order.

To make clear the actual effect OF provi-
sions of the recent age pension order OF
Commissioner Ware, about which a large
number of inquiries are being made. the fol-
lowing official statement has been made;
There appears to be an impression
among many of the old soldiers that allow
ances of pension under the age oroer OK
the commissioner of pensions are in add
ton to pensions allowed heretofore.
This is an erroneous idea of said order.
The law prohibits the payment OF more
than one pension to a person for the same
period and the effect OF the order on those
having pension already only will be to
increase such pension up to the age limit
IL the pension already drawn 10 below that

Population of Italy.

Population of Italy.
The total population of Italy Is now esti-
mated to be 81 O0O,O 600. The annual emigra-
ton Is fully 100000 men. women and chill
dren. Notwithstanding this tremendous
drain, there is steady annual increase in
the population of the country of from be-
tween 6 and Z per cent. There is no immi-
grafton. This increase results, therefore.
entirely from preponderance of births
over deaths and losses through departure.
Morality among the Italians Is governed
largely by environment and economic con-
dition in other countries, but nearly all
adults are married and large families are
the rule.
When an Italian enligratos to the United
States he invariably expects to return.
About 10 per cent do return. but In the end
most of these go back again to America.
On their return to Italy they find conditions
about as they were when they first left, and
the attractions Of the new world compel
them to emigrate again, generally taking
with them other members of their families
or conveying party of friends to the land
of plenty. More of the southern Italians
stay in the United States than those who
go from northern Italy The northern 1tal-
fans leave early in the spring, work six
months In the United States, and return to
Italy in the fall. Their average earn
ings during this period are about $50 per
month, and after paying steamer passage
both ways and living expenses in the United
States the average amout brought homo Is
about $50.
Opinion differs to whether the enigra-
ton from Italy to the United States will
increase or decrease during the next few
years. If times are good in the United
States. meaning plenty of labor at fair
wages, the movement will keep up to its
present mark for several years, though
decrease I'm the future is inevitable, owing
to an exhaustion of supply. In 1901, 533. 245
Italians emigrated. About half of these
were classed as temporary. or returning
within the year Eighty-two per cent of
these temporary emigrants went to Euro
pean countries, and 7-1S per cent to the
United States. Forty per cent of the
permanent emigration was to the United
States. The continents of North and
South America received "a per cent of
the permanent movement. The figures for
1903 show a still larger exodus with a de-
cided increase in the movement towards
the United States. J. d. WHELPLEY.
