Sharon S: New Castle O.

Sharon, Pa, Aug. 16. Sharon
again defeated New Castle this af-
ternoon, making it three straight.
Malarlley twisted for the locals
and his curves were so puzzling
that only three hits were made
by the visitors. Sharon fell on
Limric in the first inning and scor-
ed three runs and later on batted
in two more. New Castle got only
one man as far as second base.
The fielding of Greene and run
ming catch by Sellers featured the

AS was predicted in yesterdays Mir
ror the Runts stood an excellent
chance of pulling down Hrst money.
The Marion lads had up to that time
disposed of Mansfield by 12 to /
score and Nevada II to /. The only
team that. stood between the Runts
and the amateur championship OF
Central Ohio was Shelby. Yesterday
afternoon Just to show the thousand
anxious spectators that the longer they
played the better they became, Marion
shut out Shelby by score Of 13 to o.
TO one player more than any other
on the Marion team is due the credit
of getting away with the first prize.
All the boys PLAYED great ball as
the scores will inulcate and It must
not be thought for a moment that
because the scores were one sided that
the other teams in the tournament
were not strong. Every one was load

sERvATIus TROUBLED.

Lancaster is trying TO make trou-

keep Youngstown from playing him
Manager Wright of Youngstown
says Servatius will play with
Youngstown or will play nowhere.
Lancaster has no claim on Serva-
tins. The Columbus club bought him
paying double the price for him
that he could have been bought
for under the option Columbus held
on him. He was wanted at once
and Columbus did not wait II
Aug. Is the time the option would
have been effective. As he was
the property OF Columbus he could
be sent wherever Columbus wanted
to sepd him. Lancaster will not
get far with this claim for the
player as he is clearly eligible TO

vatius does not want to play with

Japanese Rifle Rest.

An Austrian military organ draws
attention to one of the minor details
OF Japanese musketry practice during
the late war which seems to have es-
capped notice in Europe. In European
armies the question of a rife rest for
long range firing has led to many IN
genious contrivances for devising tri-
pod arrangements. The Japanese War
Department. solved the difficulty In
much simples but equally effective
way. They just provided the soldier
with bag of stout cotton eight inches
wide and twenty inches long, which
he could carry in his cartridge case
ON the march, and on reaching the
fighting line could in a minute stuff
with earth or stones. The device
gave amazing assistance in accuracy

coIorIess Proper Names.

There is a fascinating IL considerably
dfscredited branch of .philology in
which the facts Of language are, in
the absence of other documents, made
to imply the facts Of history. Many of
us preserve from college days a COM
plete and engaging picture Of that
Aryan race which descended from the
plateau of Iran to rule the world, and
that linguistic pastoral still imposes
itself in the face of a more skeptical
science. Now, a philologer who stu
died the development Of proper names
from this point Of view would not
fail to note their melancholy tendency
to bleach out in the wearing. At any
early period, and indeed we'll toward
the beginnings of modern history,
proper names told something as to
paternity, occupation and habitation
today they are quite colorless. A new
Ulysses would no longer be Laertides;
no Peter indicates that he is the son
Of Paul. A Carpenter or a Weaver
is likely to be a lily-fingered stock
broker. Even the place names have
pretty much disappeared, except in
the case of nobility, and since the
average gentle family has not for
years lived on its titular estate, or
perhaps has none at all. our new Gas
tons de Folk give us a name about
as sapless as John Jones.-New York

there is a goodly representation.
The coins of Maryland and Vir-
ginia in the time of their colonial
existence were quaint and peculiar in
their way. They included shillinys.
six-penny pieces, pennies and half
penny pieces. Among those that
abounded in Maryland was the Lord
baltimore groat, called after the old
English groat, which was worth
about four pence in the Id country.
These coins, as we'll as those of Vir-
Sinia at that time, were coined in
England for the colonies. One that
circulated very extensively in Virgin
la was the Gloucester token" and
there were multitudes of haIf-pen-
MES in those days. all with more or
less peculiar stamps upon them.
Among the coins of the period be-
lore the Declaration of Independence
New York, or New Amsterdam, as it
was then known, spread broadcast
her shilling pieces stamped with a
pine tree. and they were as good as
gold in the markets. Massachusetts,
also had her pine tree shilling. and
IL was good anywhere, as they came
from Hulfs minting house in Penn

coins of those days immortalized the
American eagle, and the North Amer
lean aborigine had his innings. Olive
branches and stars and notices of
various kinds appeared on the OBJ
verse and reverse sides of those old
coins, from shillings down to half
pence. The old coppers of those days,
particularly those minted in the New
England region, and the three penny
coins, as well, are OF inestimable VAL

DO exist are as carefully guarded,
wheresoever they are, as the crown
