THAT COSTLY DECISION.


 A decision given by Umpire Dave Mulcahy at Riverside park yesterday afternoon was the subject of much ad- verse comment from many base pail cranks. The Moonlights were at the bat and two men, Mulligan and Thomp- son, were on bases and two were out. D,wyer knocked the ball into the crowd in right field, and before Lynch could find 1t. Mulligan had scored and had seized Slavin's arms, so Slavin claims, and held them behind his back so that he couldn't catch or stop the ball when Lynch threw it in. The result was that Thompson and Dwyer scored. After much delay Umpire Mulcahy said two men should go back to their bases because of the interference of the Moonlight player. Later he or. dered one man back, thus changing his decision Mulcahy evidently for got the following rule: If one or more members of the team at bat stand or collect at or around a base for which base runner is trying thereby confusing the fielding side and adding to the difficulty of making such play. the base runner shall be de- clared out for the interference of his team mate or team mates" If the Moonlight player interfered as Mul- cahy says, then Thompson should have been called out and the score would have stood at that period, the end or the seventh inning, to in favor or the Merrimacs, Instead of to 6,
 If there was nQinterfer then all three runs shoul have counted.

WILL AcCEPT CHALLENGE.

To the Editor of the Democrat:
 Sir-As to Manager Mcdonald of the Merrimac Juniors making a statement last evening that he would play the Moonlights for $25O a side any day this week, we will play them providing they let us have one infield man, for it is impossible for us to get a short stop out of town. We were lucky to have a team at all from the looks of things, for their team was managed by about twenty different men, as we went to see different players and we even went so far as to see couple of the. players who happened to be out of. town and these players received let ters, not one being from the same man. ager or from Mcdonald, but neverthe- less we don't mind that. As the Mer- rimacs have every player in town en- gagged outside what we have, but sup pose we could secure couple of them, that is, the ones they had on the bench; from the way they talked last night they didn't like sub work for a minute, especially in front of such a mass of people. Now, all we want is just te one infield man and they can do business with us for any part of five hundred dollars ($500). We don't want any hot air or newspaper notoriety, but we can trim them and that's all there is to it.

 Of the Moonlights.

RYAN WANTS roo MUCH.

Tommy Ryan, who likes to bask i'm the f1stic limelight, Is again out with a def to meet Jack O'Brien of Phiaf- delphia. It is evident that Ryan Is in earnest now He is in Chicago and declares that his challenge is one in answer to O'Brien's made few weeks ago. Of course there is stipulatio to Ryan's challenge. Tommy will not fight unless O'Brien consents to get down to 154 pounds. O'Brien coulq not do this weight unless he amputar- ed one of his legs. A
 1T .-ssss sz GOOD FIGHT TO-NIGHT
 New York, Oct 1O.-A special train over the Pennsylvania railroad has been chartered to carry the local sports to witness the six round bout between Terry McGovern and Eddie Hanlon, which is to be decided before the Industrial A. O., Philadelphia, to- night. Joe Humphreys will have charge of the train, and from present indications a large crowd will go over to see the mill. The train will leave Cortland street ferry at 7:2O o'clock and bring the sports to Philadelphia in time to see the main contest. That it will be great goes without saying. How could it be otherwise? Neither lad could stall if he tried. They have speed, strength, science, gan1eness, unquenchable, and everything that goes to make your great fighting man. It will be Hanlon's first appearance in the east. McGovern is fighting in his old form and in training last week he seemed to have all his old fire.

The New York Sun gives the fol-
lowing account of how a messenger
boy in New York found out one of
the strong points of the new admin
istration in that city:

center of the room, was presented


Plus TX by the Emperor Louis Ma
poleon OF France as souvenir of the
baptism Of the Prince Imperial, to
whom the pope stood as god
father. On either side are price
less Sevres vases, presented by
Napoleon l. to Pope Plus VII.
Among the most unique of the jubilee
gifts are two slabs of marble OF odd
but graceful shapes bearing medallions
Of Leo XIII, with Appropriate inscrip-
tions, which were presented to him
by the Emperor of Austria, but he
never liked them. He said they looked
too much like tombstones.
This library was begun by Pope
Nicholas vi in the year 1900, who,
with his dying breath, thanked God
for having given him taste for let
ters, and the facilities necessary for
cultivating it with success. He once
offered reward of five thousand du-
cats to any person who would bring
him the gospel Of St. Matthew in the
original tongue. Sextus Nv (1475) and
Sextus (1588), were both literary
men, and took great interest in secur-
ing additions to the collection. The
latter built the present rooms and fit
ted them up very nnl: !, as they are
now, although the frescoing is quite
modern. Most of the popes have cul-
tivated the arts and letters, but none
in the long list took greater interest
in such subjects than the late Leo
XIII, which was perfectly natural be-
cause he was himself an author. Here
in the library are to be found in beau
tiful bindings, collections Of all his
public papers and several duplicate
copies OF all the editions of his poems
that were ever published. He used to
come here frequently, before he be-
came so very infrm and left all his
books and papers to the library.
Father Ehrle is now engaged in ar
ranging them and making a cata-
logue. ... .s.
Leo's private library numbered
about 10000 volumes, and included
nearly every Catholic book published
during his pontifcate and nearly
every book OF whatever value pub
lished by member Of the Catholic
church during that period, and nearly
every one is presentation copy, in
scribed with the authors name, be-
Cause it was we'll known that the late
POPE appreciated such gifts. There is
great deal of trash in the collection,
o. course, and many fine examples OF
binding. Father Ehrle is going
through the collection carefully, pick
ing out duplicates and sending them
to different colleges in Rome and dis
posing of worthless volumes else
where.
The state papers of the late pope
have been placed in the archives. They
include great deal of valuable his
torical material. Purely biographical
papers will be referred to his future
biographer if one is ever selected,
which is scarcely necessary, because
half dozen excellent biographies have
already been published. He was very
particular about his papers. He never
destroyed anything md fortunately we
have several duplicates OF his poems
in his own handwritilnr. sss
The Irish standard. [volume] (Minneapolis, Minn. ;) 1886-1920, 1904-01-09

there, too, is the church in which he
celebrated his last mass.
In the same case with the Luther
manuscripts are collection of love
letters written by King Henry VIII
of England to Anne Boleyn, and the
original manuscript of the treatise he
wrote against Luther and the Reform
alton, which gained for him the title
defender of the Faith"
But even more interesting than
these theological manuscripts is
book of poems in the handwriting of
Michael Angelo, that universal genius,
who was a poet, painter, architect,
sculptor, musician and engineer. His
poems are written in beautiful hand
which indicates that he might have
been a good bookkeeper also; but his
mind occasionally wandered from his
muse, for several of the pages con-
tain pictures of windows, doors,
arches, columns and drawings of other
details of architecture. Like some
other good men he was proudest of his
weakest accomplishment. He thought
he was great poet and in these silent
lines, which repose under the shadow
of the majestic dome he created for
St. Peters he is said to have taken the
greatest satisfaction. In his former
residence at Florence, which has been
turned into a museum of his works,
are other poems in his handwriting
These, however, have never been pub
lished, and learned gentleman who
has read them declares that they are
not worth publishing.
In the same case is similar vol
ume in the handwriting of Tasso, most
of the poems being twice written. The
original draught occupies one page
with corrections made in revision by
the author. On the opposite page is
usually found clean copy written in
a neat and rather fanciful manner.
There are something like 10000
manuscripts in the Vatican library and
several hundred thousand printed
books, and there are twelve hundred
feet of corridors in that section which
is exhibited to the public, not including
an enormous area in which the books
are kept. Father Ehrle says that he
has been thinking of getting bicycles
for his assistants because of the long
distance they have to travel when they
are sent for books. On busy days they
have to walk several miles, and Of
course this requires a great deal Of
time. The books are not arranged as
in modern libraries, but according to
the plan in use for centuries among
the princes of Rome. No books or
manuscripts are visible. They are all
inclosed in low closed cupboards
called "armarii," about five feet high,
and the wooden doors are richly dec
Grated. This plan was adopted in
order to combine art galleries and
libraries and thus give room to hang
pictures on the wall over the books.
The main exhibition room, 22o feet
long, with ceiling decorated in most
brilliant color, contains several inter-
esting historical relics. They include
some of the choicest gifts received by
Leo XIII on his jubilee anniversary,
and by his predecessors from foreign
potentates. An enormous font of
Seyres porcelain, which stands in the

Father Ehrle is also engaged in re-
arranging the several thousand vol
umes recently purchased from the
Barberini family, which had one of the
most valuable private libraries in the
world. 1t is unusually rich in early
Latin publications, and had nearly all
