What the Spaniards Bead.

Evidences of progress and prosperity
have been noted In Spain since the
dons went up against the United
States, and it is interesting to learn
that Spanish journalism is keeping
time with everything else and probably
leading other features Of development
Madrid is well off In the matter Of
daily newspapers, among them the
Epoch, the Herald, the Impartial, the
Mail and the Correspondence of Spain
The Spaniards also support a religious
daily called the Future Century. an or
gan of great party influence. The Lib
eral powerful daily paper, Is pub
lished simultaneously in five cities.
Spain supports number of cartoon
Weeklies, fashion journal, q musical
and theatrical review and numerous
special and trade publications. At the
present time there are published in
Madrid alone several weekly and
monthly magazines that challenge
comparison with similar publications
in France, Germany and England. Nu-
merous periodicals of some pretensions
are also issued In other literary centers
through the kingdom.

An AnsMer With a POSTSCRIPT.

Mr.. Andrew Lang. the English critic,
is giving the public some heart TO
heart talks on books and how to use
them. Stated courses of reading do
not appeal to him. He says:
Young men. especially In America write
to me and ask me to recommend course
Of reading Distrust a course OF reading
People who really care for books read all
Of them. There Is no other course, Let
they get from me. the inquiring young
men.
Farther on it appears that Mr. Lang
is not too English in his prejudices to
admire an American production, for
he has this to say of the author Of
"Evangeline:"
Next to Scott with me came Longfel-
low. who pleased me as more reflective
and tenderly sentimental. while the re-
Elections were not SO deep as to be puz-
zlng.
Evidently an American who didn't
know his Longfellow would hear some
things Earring to his peace of mind
should he seek to compare notes in u
personal interview with this wide
awake adventurer among books.

The Moresus Victorious.

The second game of base ball be.
tween Versailles and the Moreaus Of
Glensted was played at Base Ball
Park in this city last Sunday afternoon
and was witnessed by a larger crowd of
enthusiasts than was the first contest.
The game was an interesting x
hibition and started off in profession
al fashion. but the grounds being in
bad condition the fast work could
not be kept up. Several features of
the game developed the fact that be-
fore the season is far advanced both
these teams will become stubborn
competitors for visitors who may COM
pete with them for honors.
Moreau led off at the bat but failed
to connect, going down with mess
of goose eggs. Versailles was treated
to the same dose, the second inning
the visitors made the first run. In the
third they again succeeded in landing
two over the home plate, while YER
sailles was donated another o. In
the fourth a bad break both by the
umpire and a wild throw to Yeager
gave Morcau three runs. The bases
were full. the ball being thrown to
| Ycagcr, struck the runner and landed
behind the crowd. Not a man was
entitled to run in, while the runner
should have been out. Instead. three
ITALICS were scored by the BronChos
with five all told in the inning. This
was the only bad feature in the game
aside from a few errors made by the
home team because Of non-practice.
In the fifth Versailles scored the first
run and treated the visitors to another
mess OF goose eggs. Neither team
scored in the sixth. In the seventh
Moreau scored one while Versailles
failed to matcrializc. In the eighth
Morcau gathered in two more. when
Versailles rallied and succeeded in
making four runs, and again fell down
in the ninth, leaving the score at the
conclusion as follows:
Nersailles-0 0 0 0 | 0 o 4 O. )
Morcau-- . | 2 > o o | 2 Oil
Rob. stockton, who will pitch for
Versailles during the season. was in
the box Sunday and was supported by
Yeager behind the bat. While out of
practice TO some extent he made a
favorable showing and when toned
down will make a decided improve
ment in the home team. Barnett,
the other addition to the team did
lot add any material hOnors to his
record, yet he worked to a disadvan-
tage on the heavy grounds. a num-
Der Of errors were made. but the game
proved very satisfactory to the fans"
