Lincoln was BANKED in the first inning,
although Fenlon made a single and went

first man up for Omaha, struck out and
then Buck Franck olouted the ball for a
double and Aubrey followed with another
to left field on which Franck scored.
Aubrey went to third on welch's out to
first and scored on wild pitch.
Lincoln tied the score in the fourth inning
on a series Of errors. Fox struck out and
Fenlon reached first because Joe Dolan did
not have his foot on the sack when he
ought. Davidson struck out and Aubrey
muffed Thomas fly after a hard run.
Gagnier hit high one over Autrey's head,
bringing in both Fenlon and Thomas and
tying the score. Gonding had a chance to
head of both these runs when Gagnier hit
high foul, which Gonding did not see
until It hit the ground.
The Saltpeters went one to the good in
the sixth inning. Fenlon hit a long fly to
the fence back Of DR.. II. John Welch and
came home when Thomas hit a grounder
to Dolan, which the latter threw home to
catch Fenlon, but not in time. At this
stage of the proceedings Pa began to get

The game was marked by the heavy hit

steam they had and when a batsman con-

After a Miniature.

A note of black is considered smart in
evening costumes. A white MORE brocaded
with pale pink roses is piped with black
velvet, and a pale blue grenadine made
over a slip of chintz-figured brocade, with
pale blue ground, has trimmings and sash
of black velvet. Both of these gowns are
particularly effective. The large Powered
brocades Of a generation ago, sometimes
barred or plaided with broad satin stripes,
are charmingy used as slips under the thin
materials worn so generally this year.
There seems to be a revival also of the
black velvet neckband that was SO becom-
ing, when it was in vogue twenty-five years
ago. 1t is sometimes tied in the back with
a smart little bow, and sometimes crossed
in front and pinned. This latter style re-
Quires an old fashioned brooch to be quite
correct. 1t was introduced at Newport late
in the season by one of the acknowledged
bellies Of the summer. Like the high collar
for which we are indebted to a queen, the
crossed and pinned neckband was first used
ly infamed mosquito bite had def1ed all
efforts of both mistress and maid for its
removal or concealment The sufferer hap
pened to catch a glimpse of an old minia-
ture, and the problem was solved. That
evening the beautiful throat looked whittier
than ever with an inch wide band of black
velvet ribbon, crossed in front and pinned
with an old-fashioned pearl-rimmed cameo
brooch. OF course that was the signal for
the ransacking of old jewel boxes, and
canoes of all sorts have been, after long
years of seclusion, once more brought to
light and favor

COPPER MEMS HEARING.
Notable Meeting at Detroit Pertinent
to Mining Corporations.

DETROIT, Mich, March 9.-An of the
large copper interests of the upper PENN
sua will be heard this afternoon at the
hearing before Gov. Warner on the bill
passed by the state legislature to prevent
one mining corporation from voting stock
in another mining corporation. Tits bill
is concededly designed to prevent the ac-
quirement by the Calumet and Hecla Min
ing Company of the Centennial, Allouez
and Osceola Mining companies. The annual
meeting of the Osceola company, in which
Calumet and Heca have acquired a major
ity holding, will be held March II, and the
friends of the bill rushed it through the leg
islature. urging the nearness Of this meet
ing as the reason for haste.
At the hearing this afternoon, which will
determine whether the governor will sign
the bill, the Calumet and Hecla Company
will be represented, as will the Bigelow
syndicate of Boston, the Copper Range Con-
solidated Company and probably the Anal
gamated Copper Company. A delegation
of citizens from the copper country is also
here to protest against the bill.
Rudolph AgassiZ and Col. T. F. Liver
more of Boston are among the representa-
tives of Calumet and Hecla present. There
are also a number of representatives of the
United States Steel Corporation present,
who are said to be against the BILL which
would prevent that corporation from ac-
quiring further mines in the state.

ITALIANS IN THE SOUTH.
Bryan, Texas, an Example Of Their
Thrift-Raise Large Families.

Thrift-Raise Large Families.
From the Charities and the Commons.
Bryan. Tex, is an example of what is be-
ing done In the south by colonies Of Italian
immigrants. There are in that township
2. 800 contadini under the spirited guidance
of young Sicilian priest, Father Giovanni
Militello.
They raise mostly grain and cotton, either
on their own lands or on rented farms,
which they get at IS an acre year. They
save from a hundred to a thousand dollars
year and live comfortably on the rest.
FATHER Militello was able to collect in
few days 81, 100 to cancel the debt on the
local church. His parishiOners embellished
the church with number of statues and
presented their pastor with safe and
buggy and team. Once a month he drives
to the furthest point In the township and
celebrates mass in a'tent.
Living is cheap; flour, meat, sugar. coffee
and oil are at low prices. Meat sells at .
cents pound. State and county taxes are
very light and the climate is like that of
Sicily. Land is so abundant that it's use
will clear 1t Of timber The Italians cut
the timber and sell 1t at 81 for eight cubic
feet: raise grain the first year and get
crop Of cotton the second.
1T was encouraging to see along the
road the vast cotton and grain plantations"
could be distinguished because of their free
dom from weeds. AS we drove past the
priest would call out to some Of the farmers
by name and they would leave their spade
or their plough and come running to us,
hat in hand. Behind the farmers came the
farmers wives and the children; and how
many children 1 found one mother with
eleven of them"
