Umpire's Decisions in First Game Re-

Boston, Aug. 2B.-Ch1cago defeated Boston twice to-day, in the first game yby 3 to 1 and in the second by 4 to 1. Throughout both games the specta- tors made demonstrations against Urn- pire Carpenter whose decisions in the first game were held responsible for Chicago's victory Penney and Catcher Brown disputed the decisions and their removal from the game further enrag- ed the crowd which threatened Carpen- ter at the close of the second contest. A squad of police protected him from possible injury. The second game was called at the end of the seventh by agreement. Scores:

AGAINST CIVIL PENSIONS.

The report Of the special committee
of the National Civil Service Reform
League on approximation In the civil
service and plans for retirement PEN
sons is worthy of special attention be-
cause it shows that the great body Of
civil service reformers are lighting
against the tendency, for which the
merit system is frequently, but, we be-
lieve, unjustly. reproached, OF making
public office private property and of
saddling on the taxpayers the burden
of incompetent employees 1t is also
worthy of attention because 1t demon
strates that the merit system is not re-
sponsible for the evils of superannua-
ton, but that, on the contrary, those
evils were much worse under the spolis
system, and the examination tend to
lessen the number of incompetent en-
ployes and bring into office young and
ambitious persons who in few years
leave the service for better opportunl-
ties in private life, and make way for
other young and ambitious persons,
whereas the spoils system tended to
bring men into the service who were

that anybody would believe it, and we

American and European confidence
men must pale their Intellectual stires
below the glories of their fellow pro-
fessors Of the east. Even in the aus
tere atmosphere of district magls-
trate's court at Ragoon recent case
of imposture showed up like a fairy
tale backed up by sworn evidence. The
complainant. very old man living at
Prone, possessed two houses, a wife
and a daughter. and these last owned a
quantity Of jewelry, He was y great
believer In the magic powers OF the two
Kadawa, or particularly holy priests,
but his religious fervor had in it a
large alloy Of avarice. When, there
fore, certain Burman and his wife
| were introduced to him as persons en-
Toying such influences with the Kada-
wa that the holy men would trans
mute the request II was natural that
| he should desire to profit by the ae-
quaintance. The old man expressed q
| wish to see the Kadawa and was taken
to cave In a pagoda in Prone where
| he says he saw a miraculous vision Of
| phoongyi or monk, standing outside
the cave. Several witnesses declared
before the district magistrate that they
had seen the extraordinary vision and
all believed in his supernatural powers.
After some visits to the cave a mes
cage was brought from the phoongyi to
| the seeker after wealth that If he
brought three thousand rupees he
would get in exchange fifty viss of
gold, and further If the sum was dou-
bled he would receive one hundred viss
in gold. He Immediately pledged his
wife's jewelry for six thousand rupees
and this money was taken to the
pboongyi by the Radawa's alleged
friend A number OF villagers accom-
panied him, and they all worshipped
the phoongyi After a brief converse

1Er,S nAKE TIE BEST.

AS long as we stay in the killing
business it behooves US to be the best
in that line. just as we are in other
lines. So we must have our army re-
volver improved. 1t appears that
while the 3s-calibrr bullet used in
the army revolver will kill a man 1t
will not stop his rush in hand-to-
hand conflict. 1t has been found Sspe-
cially inadequate in the Philippines,
where our men have frequently been
obliged to meet the rushes Of the bolo
men. Even after being struck and
wounded in vital part by one of the
.3S-caliber bullets, the short sword men
would frequently continue their rush
and do considerable damage with their
bolos before the effects of the bullets
would bring them to a stop. 1t is be-
lleved that a .45-caliber arm would
serve to stop the onrush of foe.
Quite likely, and If so let us have 1t
and have it quick. We've got to kill
or be killed. it seems. We wish our
little brown brothers A Happy New
Year.

KlNT moRE ITBRARIES.

There are people in England who
think that country needs a Carnegie
or something just as good. The prop
osition to secure government grants for
public libraries Is being agltated by
English Librarians. The matter was
recently made the chief point of dis
cussion at a meeting of the Northern
Counties Library association, and a
resolution in favor of such grants was
passed with but three dissenting votes.
Grounds on which the passage Of the
measure is advocated are, that the Ii
brary is an integral part of the educa-
tfonal machinery of the country, and
should therefore have the same stand
ing before Parliament as the school;
that local support could be very much
stimulated by national aid, that the
educational standing of any community
is OF interest not only to the people OF
thatcommunity, but to the whole nation
and that it is often in just those places
where there is the least local interest
and Initiative that the library is mos
needed. To prevent too great depend
enee on national aid the plan is to put
premium on local effort by system
of graduated bounties.
There are people in this country wht
are not sure that Carnegie would b,
good thing for England, or that hi
is a good thing for this country. Blu

STUPIDITY rs. INTUITION.

Strange how stupid Man continues to
misunderstood lovely and lively Wom-
an. In Paris some wideawake women
have taken notion that they want to
drive cabs for a living. But all the
women who have thus far sought IL
censes from the Partisan authorities
have failed to pass the required exam
nations. They were all familiar with
the fares to be charged, but seven
slipped up on the topography of Paris
streets when asked to name the short
est routes between given points. Two
were deficient in knowledge of how to
put a fallen horse on it's feet again,
and two more failed to harness and
unharness horses in the required time
limit.
OF course the error in all this is the
notion that Woman needs to know
things as Man does. She has intuition,
which makes her surer and safer
being than Man, with all his study and
fuss. without knowledge women
could drive cabs in Paris SO much bet
ter than the men that they would soon
drive the men out. Perhaps that ex-
plains why knowledge" is demanded

was promised one hum
bred viss Of gold in foruy-nine days
from the phoongyi, AID to convince
him of the truth Of mis- supernatural
powers several other people were called
forward and were presented with an
large amount of gold. He
thereupon went home fully convinced
after being assured that he would re-
ceive a letter which would drop from
the sky and he was asked to do every
thing which was requested in it, and to
burn the epistle and drink the ashes in
water. Shortly afterward complainant
received a letter from the mysterious
phoonkyi. 1t coctainad another re-
quest for four thousand rupees with
promises of further wealth in gold.
Complainant raised the money by
nortgagng one of his houses. When
the amount was made over at the pa
CODA to the same intermediary as in
the former transaction the phoongyi
suddenly appeared floating In space
and assured the complainant that he
had power to tight UP all of the pago-
das of the earth, and after making this
assurance disappeared in the air.
Some witnesses stated that they saw
the phoongyi disappear in a cave, and
when they all looked around they sud-
denly beheld the pagoda standing on a
hill opposite burst into flames and be-
come beautifully Illuminated. After
this complainant received third letter
in the same mysterious way requesting
the payment of a sum Of five thousand
rupees to the Shan Shwo Kadawa, who
would this time be found In cave.
Coming under the spell of the same
mysterious delusions he procured the
money by mortgaging his second house.
When no gold was forthcoming COM
plainant's wife reported the matter to
the police, who brought about the ar
rest of the intermediary, his wife and
his mother in law, They were respec-
lively sentenced to seven years, three
years and xix months rigorous impris-
onment.-Houston Post.

N0r III CLEAR LET.

The proper study of Mankind is Man,
and not little attention has been paid
to that study. But the subject isn't
exhausted yet, as a little tale which
comes from Cleveland, Ohio, indicates.
Leo Dean of that city is a bad boy
again. He used to be bad boy, and
he went careering through juvenile
courts, reformatories and other places
where they renovate and repair young
human nature. He stayed bad until a
wise man discovered that his perver-
sity dated from whack on the head
Brain surgery for the correction of
mental abnormalities was just coming
into vogue, and through the instrument
tally of the Juvenile court Leo became
one of the first subjects experimental

upon. DR.. George w. Grille and DR..
Harry S. Drysdale relieved Leo's brain
pressure, and he got to be very good
boy. One day he saw some men taking
down an awning. He stood gazing
upward, A hammer fell and cracked
Leo on the head in the exact spot
where fate had buffeted him in child
hood, changing the course Of his life.
He is now as tough as they make 'em,
and there is solemn talk of fixing his
head so that he will again be good.
It looks very much as if the powers
that be intended that Leo should be
bad, but the poet says that Man can
half control his fate, and it may be that
Leo's fate will yet be fxed by more
surgery. Anyhow. there may be sue
cessful operation, even if it kills him.
