Philadelphia and Chicago Break Even.

PHILADELPHIA, Pa, September 90
Philadelphia and Chicago played two
games today each winning one. The home
team took the first game by punching hits,
and the second which was called in the
sixth inning by agreement, was won in a
similar manner by the visitors.

Torney and played an exceptional game.
Nearly every man on both teams was at
some time or other in the limelight with a
good stop or throw, and the only man to
get in Ill favor with the crowd was Hook,
who was Missed when he refused to let some
one run for Wiley when the latter was hit
in the third inning. This did not phase the
doughty third sacker, and he only smiled
and remarked that his team was playing
to win.
Columbia went to bat first and the crowd
set up racket that could be heard a mile.
Sanders got off badly and passed Torney,
who stole second, and then Hook was
passed. Then the c. A. c. crowd went
wild. Both men advanced base on a
steal. Hoyle was out, third to first, and
Mullin raped clean single to center scor-

AGG|ES. WIN THE
DECIDING CONTEST
Exciting Game for the Amateur
Base BAH Championship
of the District.

Agriculture, champions OF the Depart
mental League won the amateur cham
pionship Of the District by defeating the
Columbia Athletic Club, pennant winners
in the Capital City League, at National
Park yesterday afternoon. 1t was a one
sided affair, the Farmers having everything
their own way, winning by score Of to
3. Despite this fact, there was never
moment when interest tagged or enthusi-
asm waned. The largest crowd that has
ever witnessed an amateur game in this
city packed the grand stand and covered
bleachers, and the excitement was great
throughout. RIOTERS for the respective
teams gathered on the opposite sides of the
stand and a roar as of Niagara from one
end or the other was sufficient indication
as to how the game was going. Such enthu-
siasm has seldom been witnessed at the To-
cal ball yard. the wild-eyed fans toss
ing I'D hats and gloves in sheer Joy The
only approach to it was the well-remem-
bered Saturday several weeks ago when
the Nationals took a double-header from
the White Sox.
Betting Was Lively.
The cheering was long and loud when
Sanders and Curnane were announced as
the opposing slabmen, and each was ac-
corded an ovation The rivalry between
the two pitchers was as intense as that
between the teams, and the sporting ele-
ment backed their respective favorites heav-
lily. Probably more money changed hands
as the result Of the contest than at any
game ever played at National Park. Both
teams were equally in favor. both sides
accepting even money. This was only un-
til the game had gotten under way, how
ever, for the odds Immediately went up to

jumped into lead of three runs in the
first half of the first inning. Again in the
fifth inning they took sudden turn. when
Agriculture tied the score and looked to
be easy, and from that time on they grad
ually dwindled until there was no c. A. c.
money in sight
Sanders and Curnane divided the individ-
ual interest. and they were the stars Of the
occasion. They seemed to be in equal ia
vor with the crowd, which never ceased to
cheer them on in their efforts to win the
crown as the best amateur pitcher in the
District. Honors have BEEN about even be-
tween them throughout the past base ball
season, and rivalry has grown in intensity
until 1t eliminated in yesterdays contest.
Sanders had much the better of this. but

Peasants In a Palace.

assembly is expected to bring the

mercial and professional classes The
housing of this body Of legislators is
not to be at all primitive, and it will
be marvel if the peasants, fresh
from the pillow, know themselves when
they get into the company of their
town colleagues.
A historic palace built by the great
Catherine has been fitted up for the
sessions Of Russia's popular parlia-
ment. Extensive alterations have been
made, and elaborate decorations have
been executed, preserving the luxu-
RANT tone Of the palace. Expensive
chairs and desks have been provided

agance that has already drawn down
ire from ne radical press. All the
furniture Of the assembly hall is fas-
tened securely to the floor, and even
the inkstands are screwed to the desks.

The American Stage,

The stage in America is one aspect
of our existence of which few can be
found to boast. It is topic on which
the majority of civilized countries can
give us hints. The Russian actor.
Paul Nikolavitch Orueneff, is about
to inaugurate the first Russian theater
in New York. What is his company's
repertory? Not much like the Ameri-
can output, for it includes plays of
the highest merits, although mostly
unknown to the American theater pub
lie. Europe beats US on theatrical
output, but they can't beat golden
grain belt beer. This beer has no
superior as table beverage. Order

One of Col. Neff's LADY Friends.

Hamlet.

The Hon. Robert Marion La Toilette
must be added to the list of authorities
on Hamlet, since he devoted three
years to the study of the melancholy
Dane. He is convinced of the perfect
mental poise and balance" of Shake
speares human enigma and therefore
may take comfort in the conclusions Of
Mr.. Churton Collins, British literary
gun, who essays to throw new light
upon Hamlet in the current Contem-
porary Review. Not that the English
man agrees with his American contem-
oorary as to Hamlet's sanity. He finds
that all great minds who interpret the
Dane read themselves into the interpre-
tation, and he charges this popularity
upon such masters in criticism as Will
liam Hazlitt and Hartley Coleridge.
But, as to Hamlet, Mr.. Collins saws on
summing up:
Shakespeare in this marvellous and
manysided masterpiece not only delineat-
ed type of character in many respects
the most hopeless and mischievous with
which mankind can be cursed, but has
presented in all the imposing proportions
Of colossal tragedy what every day wit
nesses in ittle-the anarchy, failure and
ruin resulting in different degrees and in
different senses from the infirmities of
which Hamlet is the embodiment.
Not much perfect poise and balance
there, surely, but then Mr.. Collins in
sists that every critic reads himself
into Shakespeare's lines as the real
Hamlet. And there can be no limit to
these interpretations, for ''cynic and
skeptic, stole and epicurean,' have fell
lowship with the hapless Prince of
Denmark. ''He is Sterne and Rous-
seau, he is AIontaigne and Pascal, he
is Byron and Coleridge,'' says this re-
viewer, who at last finds the KEY to the
tragedy of Hemlet's career in the fact
that he proved to be 'imbecile in the
face of any duty or in the face of any
moral necessity for action where action
was against the grain" Mr.. Collins
theory can but arouse interest even
where it fails to carry conviction.

CORPORATIONS and the Law.

First and last the officers of the life
insurance companies who took the
stand during the Armstrong investiga-
ton incriminated themselves in their
testimony. That is the way the truth
came out which destroyed one insur-
ance president and led to several in
dictments as well us the fight of some
high officials to escape the consequences
Of the exposures. The upshot of this tes-
timony from the inside will be that insUr-
ance methods must change for the good
of the public. The insurance witnesses
were not shielded by the immunity
statutes, and the contention of United
States Attorney General Moody, which
the supreme court sustains, that cor
porations may not claim immunity re-
moves one obstruction from the path
Of the federal officials. The government
may now force corporations, through
their agents, to give discriminating tes-
timony and afterward use the testi-
mony in the courts.
A corporation can only break or
evade the provisions of the laws
through the acts of it's employees, and
usually they are the only persons who
know the facts in the case. But the
officers and employees cannot be pun
ished individually for the unlawful
acts which they have been forced to
disclose. If the corporations involved
in violations of law could not be pun
ished for the unlawful acts of their
agents which they had been forced
to disclose it would be practically i'm
possible for the government to make
them obey the law. Although the court
decision was aimed at two corpora
tons against which the government
is proceeding in the tobacco and the
paper trust cases, it will apply to all
combines and corporations In future
they must produce their books and
other documents in court when ordered
to do So
