In a one-sided contest yesterday the Trim
ity boys downed the Christ Church team of
Georgetown by a score of 10 to 8. Ran
dolph, who was on the firing line for the
winners. had excellent control and held the
losers in check until the sixth inning. when
they made three scores. In the seventh
they got three more. and two came home in
the eighth. This ended their scoring. Trim
ity, ON the other hand, started scoring in
the opening inning and did not stop until
the end. The score:

st. Paurs outplayed the Immaculate
Team.

The ST. Paul and Immaculate teams met
Yesterday afternoon before the largest
crowd of the season, and the former won
a hard-htting contest by score of 10 to
8. The losers started off like they would
have an easy time winning. They scored
three runs in the first inning, while st.
Paul did not get a single score until the
fourth inning. when they tied the score
with three runs. McDermott. who was on
the runner for the winners, could not hold
the pace and weakened. The st. Paul bat
tiers then got busy, and secured four more
TALES in the fifth. Another score came in
the sixth Immaculate got two in the
sixth and three nthe eighth, which ended
their scoring. The winners had batting

Eastern Empires Won Two Games.

The Eastern Empires took double
header from the Lafayettes yesterday by a
score of % to and to 3. The defeat was
partly due to errors by the Lafayettes, al
though the Empires played much better
ball than their opponents. The Lafayettes
were very weak at the bat and the team
did not use very good headwork. 1t was
thought by the public that the Lafayettes
would take at least one game. but the EN-

THE WASTE IN FLOWERS.

Not q Faded bud For the Poor, who
Can Really Appreciate Them.
In reading the life Of Nero we mar
vel to hear that he had the floor OF his
banquet hall solidly carpeted with cut
flowers so that their fragrance might
be pleasantly diffused as the guests
crushed them under foot. But flowers
are cheap in Italy, and Nero never paid
SO apiece for American Beauty roses,
which. as a matter Of fact, have been
bought at that price by New York deal
ers to be sold again at an advance.
And what would Nero have thought OF
that Boston speculator who is said 10
have paid $4,000 for a lot Of carna-
tions! Fancy coming on such fact in
the histOries-600, 900 sesterces for some
plnks!
And yet poor as are the poor in our
great cities, and hungry as they are. 1t
is not so much the waste Of money
spent on flowers that they would de-
plore as the waste Of the flowers them
selves. If the rich realized how the
poor love flowers, how they long for
flowers, l am sure they would make

Consul General Bray reports from
Melbourne, Australia, that the Eng
lish starlings introduced from Grea
Britain for the destruction of insect,
and protected by law have changed
their habits and have become a pest tC
orchardists.
The few pairs brought into the state
have increased to myriads and have
become so destructive to the fruit in
dustry that the regulations framed for
their protection have been repealed
and steps are advocated for their eradi-
cation.
The fruit destroyed by them includes
peaches, pears. cherries, figs, apricots,
plums, grapes, Strawberries and ap-
pies. From many districts reports
come that fruit growing will have to
be given up unless some radical steps
are taken.
Insect eating birds, such as king
fishers, diamond birds, tree swallows
and tree creepers, are driven out of
their nesting places by starlings, and
before long these birds will be driven
out of the state.
That is a worse record even than the
English sparrow has made in this cOun-

A method has recently been invented
of depositing metal coating electrical
~ on laces and other fine fabrics. The
process is still kept secret, but It
turns out the most surprising results,
in effect changing the tissues exposed
into the daintiest fabrics of gold, silver
or bronze. The utility Of the metallized
laces covers various fields. They serve
for table ornamentation and for center
pieces; architects use them in mural
decorations; in applications on uphol-
stery and for the hangings Of panels in
salons, boudOirs and rich dining halls.
The makers of fine furniture incrust
wood with them in the manufacture of
screens and on surfaces of any kind,
plain or curved. They are also used
with striking effect in ecclesiastical
vestments and in ball and evening
dresses. Rich as they are in appear
ance and unparalleled in delicacy and
beauty they are very cheap. Anybody
can afford them. and the extent of their
use in cOstuming bids fair to be very
great. France discovered and is de-
