Miss Phoebe Rochester Passes Lwu.

Sunday evening at $50 o'clock
the spirit Of Miss Phoebe Rochester
took its fight and returned TO God
who gave it, quietly as if falling
asleep and with no appearance of the
great pain she had suffered so I'M
complainingly for so many weary
months; her life ebbed away without
struggle.
"A beautiful life is its own
eulogy. 1t stands out against the
background Of years serene and Gem
plete. There Is nothing to wish un-
done, nothing to add to that perfect.
ed span of spotless days.
There are those whose epitaphs we
dare not write and for whom our
silence is kindness. There are
Others whom those alone who shared
their daily walks can fifty praise.
Blameless, upright, charitable and
with the purple and fine gold of
their natures unsoiled, tender to lit
tie children, loyal to family and
friends, with love aud charity for
the afflicted, peace TO all mankind /;
those who have fought the battles of
life with clean hands and spotless
life and have passed into the pres
euce of their maker as fearlessly and
trustingly as little child.
Of this latter class was Miss Phoe-

a century has been familiar figure

BASE BALL DISPUTE
Facts Submitted 10 and Settled BY the
Courier journals Base Ball
Editor.

Owing to the fact that there was a
considerable disagreement between
the players in the game of base ball
played few days ago between the
Wilson Steam Laundry team and the
team known as the Moore team, con-
corning the Interpretation of certain
rules Of play, it was agreed that the
question be left to the Base Ball
Editor of the Courier Journal for in
depreciation.
The following letter was written to
him:
Dear sir: Enclosed find self.ad
dressed envelope for reply to a ques-
ton in base ball which has been left
to you.
Runners are on second and third
with one out; the batsman hits the
ball and the runner, who was on
second, runs to and touches third ;
the fielders throw the ball home
ahead of the runner who was on third
and the catcher touches the home
plate with his foot after the runner,
who was ON second, has touched third !;
the catcher throws the ball to the
pitcher and the runner, who was on
third when the ball was hit, runs
home and touches the plate without
being touched by the ball.
Question /, Is the runner out at
home? 2, Could he have run back
to third and forced the runner who
ran up from second to have left the
base? 3, And If this last PROPOSE.
ton is true, could the runner have
gone back to second and have been
safe if he had not been touched with
the ball before he got back? 4,
Could he have been forced out, in
case he could 90 back to second, by
the ball being held by a fielder on
the base as In running to first base p
The answers to the questions sub
mitteed we're:
Question l, No. 2, Yes. 3,
Yes. 4, No."
So, the answers to the questions
submitted bears out every conten ton
of the Moore team and the rup made
in the play should have counted for
that team as well as the out shoul d
have been counted against them.
This is the proper way to learn the
rules and because a play comes up
that is different from the way it ''us-
ed to be played, is no reason it is
not right. J. W. Lamb is in posses
sion of the Editors reply.

Table Talks.

You will find that a great deal Of
character is impaired and received at
the table. Parents too often forget
this and therefore instead of swallow
ing your food in sullen silence, in
stead OF brooding over your business
instead Of severity talking about
Others, let the conversation be gent
al, kind, social and cheering. Don't
bring disagreeable things to the table
in your conversation any more than
you would IN your dishes For this
reason, too, the more good company
you have at your table, the better for
your children. livery conversation
with company at the table is an edu-
cation to the family. Hence the in
telligence and the refinement and ap-
proprlste behavior Of a family which
Is given to hospitality. Never feel
that intelligent visitors can be any
thing but blessing to you and yours
How few have gotten hold Of the
fact that company and conversation
at the table are no small part of
education. FIX.

an, Of Louisville, was in the city
Monday. He came down to examine
mare belonging 10 G. X. New.
com. Mr.. Newcom had owned the
animal about three years. About
the time he come in possession Of her,
he noticed the mare was running a,
the nose. He applied all the rene.
dies he knew Of, but they did not i'm.
prove the condition Of the animal.
Upon examination by the State
Veterinarian, il was discovered that
the mare was infected with glandeis.
This was 20 reported and the Fiscal
Court appraised the animal, after
which il was killed and buried
DR.. Eesepman gave the following
history Of the disease: "Glsnders is

A horse may be infected for years

capable Of injecting other horses,
which may show typical symptoms
IN the course Of two or three weeks,
aud die. Mules are highly suscept-
able TO glanders and often die in the
course Of ten days or two weeks, in
fact the disease IN this form Is very
often mistaken for distemper. IL -

ogniIe distemper among their stock
to become suspicious of CHAMBERS,
when they End il is not getting well
in the course Of ten days or three
weeks. Chambers appear. very much
as distemper, except IN addition to
the continued discharge from the
nose, ;here are patches. known to the
profession a. CHANGERS, on the parti-
ton Of the nose. They can be rec
ogniIed by elevating the nostrils and
exposing the parts TO the sunlight.
Quite often 1t IL necessary TO feel
them, this can be done by rubbing
the fingers over them very lightly.
When these ulcers heal. which is ex.
tremely rare, they leave a star shap-
ed scar. at the same time other ulcers
will be eating their way deep into
the partition OF the nose and it is
quite common to hud an animal
chronically infected with the disease
to have the partitions Of the nose
perforated

arm and thigh are always thickened

suffering from glanders. \ csugh is

been three cases where the attendants
contracted the disease, and two have
since died.
"Farcy is nothing less than gland
ors in the skin form aud is just as
a. that Of the nose and
lung stage. Ii is quite common to
find an animal infected with both
types at the same time.
The disease is incurable and as
soon as it is determined the animal
should be destroyed. The Chambers
law, recently enacted, provides an
indemnity and compels the owner
to burn or bury all infected animals.

popped up to Fisher and when Arnold
came to bat cold wave fell upon the
spectators although they still had
hopes. Arnold was passed and the
bases were full. Wooley came to bat
and things looked more hopeful but a
despair once more took the place of
confidence when Wooley made two
passes at the ball. Davis started for
homo while HollingSworth was get
ting his delivery oiled up and before
he could get the ball to Queisser the
redtop had crossed the registering sta
ton and a triple steal was pulled off.
Wooley on the next ball thrown went
out, via the Vaughan-Shaumey
scenic route.
This baserunning feat undoubtedly
saved the game for Topeka especially
as Leavenworth tied 1T up in the first
half of the ninth inning and Topeka
was unable to pull out the victory in
the last half of this act. AS a starter
for the fireworks in the ninth inning
Middleton strung out long one
which Wooley nabbed. Price walked,
and Hollingsworth doubled, but~Price
was held at third. Fisher walked,
filling the bases. Then with strike
and a ball called on Lawler, Spec
called in HaIla from right field. Law
Ter isn't so much at hitting a south
paw and Shaumeyer showed his good
Judgment by bringing Cobb to bat for
the ex-Champ- The little fielder lifted
high one to Spec and Price tailed.
All the locals could do in the last
half of the ninth inning was to get
Runkel on first through the agency of
Vaughan's error. But in the tenth they
came back strong. Wooley hit a high
one and laid the ball down about half
way to the pitchers station and beat
it out. Olson sacrificed the little field
err to second and Hurlburt lifted
Texas Lacquer to right field which
Cobb was unable to reach on account
of a bum ankle. Wooley paced home
with the winning run and the stuff
was all off.
Olson, Hol1ingsworth and Queisser all
picked out two hits apiece, Davis was
hurt in practice and had to quit the
game after he slid in with the first
run of the game Umpire Alloway
showed a great deal better judgment
than on the preceding day and his de-
cisions were very fair.
The two teams are at it again this
afternoon. Larry Milton, with his
Ducklings from Webb City will con-
tend in the engagement at the local
baseball grounds tomorrow.

DAVIS THE FEATURE.
Won at Last by Some Con-

A pitchers battle between Messrs.
Arnold and Hollingsworth of the To-
peka and LeavenWOrth clubs was the
feature of the bill provided by the
local fans at Association park yester-
day afternoon. For nine innings
both twirlers pitched superb ball and
were able to exercise enough reserve
energy to pull out of several tight
places. In the ninth inning Arnold
had a slight loss of control, walking
two men and this together with a two
sacker by Mr. Holhngsworth, himself,
made matters look so critical that
Captain Spec yanked Arnold out and
substituted Halla. With this arrange
ment the engagement was prolonged
into an extra inning, the locals finally
winning out by score of to 1.
1t was nothing to the discredit of
Hollingsworth that he lost his game.
He had the better of the argument all
through the contest until the tenth In
ming. Hollingsworth must have been
born under an unlucky arrangement
of the astronomical world for nearly
every time he essays to twirl upon the
local mound heb is defeated no matter
how superb his work is. He started
out bad yesterday and walked two
men in the first inning besides plant
ing one in the trunk of Red Davis.
But he got out of the hole all right
went right for him.
The locals scored their first run in
the fourth inning. Red Davis, as
usual, was on the starting end and
this time he. did his work by hitting
a two sacker right inside of the right
Erwin received the ball along the side
and ambulated to first Runkel hit a

Farrell to Trade EIberfeld for Pitcher
on Western Trip.
New York-It would occasion no sur
prise to local fans to hear that Norman
Elberfeld will never again don a High
lander uniform. 1t is we'll known that
Frank Farrell has lost confidence in the
little shortstop, and many are of the
belief that Griffith will make a deal on
this Western trip, giving Elberfeld for
some pitcher of ability.
Griffith, as has been said all season,
surely needs pitchers. There is not a
man in the pitching corps today who
can be depended upon, and as Elberfeld
with his Crouch is absolutely useless
to his club the sooner Griffith makes
the trade the better, SO some enthusi-
asts thinks it will be for the New York
team.

ceived will be allowed to start. No
other entries will be accepted, as the
