EVILS OF ALCOHOL.

England, reports that some 5000 chill

items In the Epithelium Cells In Inver-
tebrates, Marsupials and Plantigrades."
These Gateshead children had valuable
thoughts to contribute to the temper
alce movement. The Yorkshire paper
goes the length of publishing some of
the gems brought out in this outpouring
Of infantile sapisnce. Here are . few

"The children of drunkards are often

affection.

LIFT DOPE

There Is some prospect for another
Americas cup race next season, with Sir
Thomas Upton again a challenger. ac-
cording to reports In yachting circles.
When Sir Thomas was In this country
last year, he expressed a desire for an
other try at the trophy. but only on con-
dition that the races would be sailed un-
der the new measurement rule. which
practically precludes sending a tracing
machine" type OF boat to the line. He was
told that If he would defer his challenge
a year in order that the new rule could
receive n thorough test, the New York
Yacht club would be In position to pur-
sue the matter.
1t is now stated that the yachting sea-
son, young as ii Is, has gone far to prove
the contention that yachts can be con-
structed with great speed without the
loss of staunchness and safety in heavy
weather. and that the performances OF
such boats as the schooner Queen, the
soop Effort and other boats constructed
under the new measurement rule are evil
dence OF the fact. According to report,
intimation has already been given Sir
Thomas that a challenge under the new
rule would be accepted, and yachtsmen
are rather confident that such a chal-
lenge will be forthcoming.
Should the New York Yacht club agree
TO a challenge under the new rule IL
would open the door for cup hunters from
other countries In tho event that Sir
Thomas should fail again. There have
been frequent intimations that the Ger
man emperor would like to see n GeS-
man yacht make a try for the America $
cup, but he is opposed TO the racing ma
china in Yachting

IROQUOIS 3, OLNEYV|LLE 0

At Palace Gardens yesterday the Iro-
quois baseball nine whitewashed Olney-
Vile by a score OF TO o. Rivard, as
usual. pitched an elegant game and was
very ably supported by the whole team.
Connelly's work in centre field was easily
the feature OF the game, his catch In tho
seventh being the prettiest ever seen ut
Palace Gardens. Gallagher was the lead
ing sticker with a double and a single
to his credit. Farrell and 2. Brown play
ed well for Olneyville.
After Olneyville had been retired in or
der in the first Gallagher led off with
a two-bagger and scored on Healy's sin
gle. In the second with two down Ham
ilton was passed, stole second and came
around on Gorton's hit. Murray's two
bagger and Rivard's single scored the last
run in the third inning. Killea was then
taken out and Bliss substituted. The lat
ter pitched good ball till the finish.
After the game Rivard was carried to
the dressing room on the shoulders of
the joyful Iroquois rooters. Next Sunday
the Iroquois play the Monitors. leaders

is assured. Score:

The Grays took a big brace last week
at bat and in the field. Ambrose McCon-
nell continues TO astonsh the fans by his
clouting. In the past week he secured
IA hits out OF 30 times at bat with the
result that his figures have jumped to
334.
Chadbourne gained ~ points in his fig
ures and Harry Lord added five more
points to his figures. Hugh Duffy per-
formed the stunt of twice going in TO bat
in the ninth inning and making hit
each time. This has brought him right
up TO the top of the list with .2S6. and a
few more timely ninth inning bings will
continue TO improve his figures. Craw-
ford sumped as well as Peterson.
In fielding Abstein now heads the list,
as not n single man had a clean slate.
McConnells mark OF .95S Is highly COM
mendable. Most of the players haye
picked up in fielding and the majority
of the averages are now quite respect
Cble. Unfortunately Joe Harris had
made poor start and is well down ON
the list on account OF his two errors.

APPONAUG

The Apponaug baseball team went to
Pontiac Saturday afternoon and defeated
their team by the score OF 10 to 4. The
game was very exciting during the first
six innings, when by clever stick work
the Apponaugs secured seven runs in
three innings. This makes the fourth
game won out of the five played In the
league and puts Apponaug tied for first
place in the league. Roger Williams and
Lakewood having won and lost the same
number OF games.
Card of Apponaug pitched magnificent
ball from the start and was never in dan
ger His support was equally as good.
Out OF five times at the bat Card got
two two-baggers and single. scoring
four runs Pontiac played good game,
but Apponaug secured hits when they
counted for runs. McJames caught hne
game. Shepard and O'Neil made some
good plays in the outfield. Hannihn
played a good game at short and
strengthened that position very much.
Pontiac fought hard for this game and
was very anxious to win and thereby
even up matters for the game they lost
to Apponaug on July 4th. The people or
