Much that Grover Cleveland says
in the current number of the Ladies'
Home Journal about woman's mission
Is quite true, while a great deal that
he says of the harmfulness of wom-
ems clubs we think he may wish to
amend ten or fifteen years hence. 1t
is undoubtedly true that many club
women do neglect their families to
attend their clubs. but 1t is equally
true that If there were no women's
clubs ON the face of the earth these
women would be forgetful of their
home duties.-Boston Transcript.

Struck by Mayor Weaver
in Big Gas Fight.

Philadelphia, Pa, May 23.-The last
doubt that the gas deal of Durham and

ganization, generally called the ma
chane," has disappeared Mayor Weav-

of Costello and Smyth two prominent

Col. Sheldon Potter. He further ap-

Root, of New York, and ex-Judge Jas
Gay Gordon, formerly Democratic
leader In Philadelphia A statement
prepared by the mayor was given to
the press tonight. In 1t he gives his
reasons for the action and the stand
taken by him against the gas lease.
The determination of the mayor to
sreak with the organization was known
last night, for yesterday afternoon he
requested the designations of Mr.. Co.'S
tello and Mr.. Smyth. Over IL hours
was given the organization to form its
ranks and decide upon the policy it
would pursue. That 1t purposes to
fight is apparent from the course OF
action taken. This action is disclosed
by the form which the letters of resig-
ration of the two directors took, and is
undoubtedly the outcome of a general
z council of war. Messrs. Smyth and
Costello sent their requested resigna-
-tions to Mayor Weaver about IL
o'clock, and In form and phraseology

reported around the city hall today
that the designations would be such in
effect only as Messrs. Costello and
Smyth would hold Office despite the
mayor, as they would refuse to turn
over the positions to their successors
until the council had confirmed them,
as required by the Bullet law. But this

the treasureship candidate should be
from the east.

morrow. with John G. Harman OF
Bloomsbury as temporary chairman;
II. M. Mead of Harrisburg, secretary,
and ]. Thompson Baker of Lewisburg
as permanent chairman.
The platform will deal with state is

elect a state treasurer this year and
stop the commerce in the funds in the
state for personal and political use."

For IS long innings, until the field be-
came dark from the encroaehing night,
and the air was musical with The tink-
ling of cOW-bellS, the White SoX and
the Leaven worth WOodpeckers tugged
away at Association park on Saturday
afternoon, in a senSatiOnally crazy
game, with Topeka finally winning out
because Ashley who had supplanted
Relihan for the LeaVenwOrth coming
emit threw a bad one which Old Lew
Armstrong ought to have but failed to
squeeze, and which permitted Togo
Dunn, who had gone to third on Shu-
meyers error and Persch's long fly, to
roll across the warming pan with the
winning score. The marks on the board
read: Topeka 6, LeavenwOrth 5.
Oh, there were features, plenty of
them-but the most striking was the
dismaIly bad work Of Umpire Werner
But he handed both sides about an
equal dose. In the. sixth, however, his
work was so exceedingly coarse, that
the not easy tempered Jack Henry
boiled over. and rushing to the box, told
Werner in about the most lurid and
sulphurOus language ever piped through
human lips, just exactly what ne
thought about it.
To the bench" motioned Werner.
Henry did not move in his tracks. "On
the grounds yelled Werner. The bel
lgerent was still in no haste to leave
without standing on the order of his
going Chief of Police Whitaker was
summoned, but he said that his auth

Sheard was appealed to. Tom prompt
ly told Werner that he was about the
worst that ever happened A threat of
the forfeiture of the game was made
by His Umps," and Captain QuigleY
interceded, sent his serappy catcher
from the field and put Stewart in his
place Two innings later Henry was
back on the grounds again and on the
coaching line, yelling hike a terror.
Werner never said word about it.
In the eighth Bert Dunn shook Wer-
ner like a rat because he failed to call
Harrington out at second when Stew
art had plainly whipped. the ball down
in time But Werner said never word,
permitting Dunn to play on without
either fine or even a censure.
Relihan who started to pitch for the
visitors lasted seven innings. Ashley,
who is said to have more steam than
Jack Root, failed to qualify III his place,
although he hung out the rest OF the
game. Carter, who was on the firing
line for the locals, pitched magnificent
ball.

He strutted to the rubber the first man
