One of the peculiar things in
base ball is the fact that certain
pitchers have at" on some clubs,
and vice versa. Why this should be
is one of the uneXplainable freaks
of the game. After a twirler has
been defeating a club for a length
of time, he begins TO feel that he
has something on that team and
this makes linn work with conf
dence.
The same is true of team, as
the players feel they are going to
have a tough proposition on hand
the minute they see the pitcher
take off his sweater to warm up.
The luck attached to these games
seems to break with the winner
and probably this, as much as the
twirler's ability, helps him to down
his foes.

"a Day at Union Station

This production can hardly be
classed as play, for it presents
only the ever changing scenes
that might take place during a
day in metropolitan railway de-
pot; and yet in it there are sew.
eral romances-Oneo of a widOwer
who finds at the depot a new
mamma for his three motherless
children, much "auntied'
young lady, who captures a hus
band right under the watchful
eyes of her aunts. Then there
are weddings, parties, strolling
musicians, an opera company,
Dutch and Irish immigrants,
sold jays" from the country, a
pony ballet, and as variegated
an assortment of humanity as is
apt to be seen in such place
The play is built upon the same
lines as Hoyt's Tourists in a
Pullman Palace Car" and "Dix-
les Trip on the SOUND" familiar
to all lovers of high class vau
deville. Dancing, singing, char
acter sketches, pathetic aud hu-

that the audience cannot tire for

Brunswick School Patrons to
Petition Commissioners.

A series of public school pa
irons meetings at Brunswick, this
county, closed with meeting last
week. As usual the capac ty Of
the hall was taxed to it's utmost
capacity. DR.. G. W. Ward, prin-
cipal of the State Normal School
at Baltimore, who made an ad
dress. was delighted with his
audience and the hearty recsp-
ton which he received.
The matter of additional school
facilities was then taken up by
the school organization. The
plan which seems to meet with
general favor contemplates a
thorough modern building, as
centrally located as possible, with
desk room for about three hun
dred pupils, (all of the pupils
from the 9th grade up to be ac-
commodated in this building,) q
manual training department, an
auditorium and such other con.
venient arrangements, generally
as modern school methods de
mand. The assembly was hand
somely entertained by the grad
yates.

FLY BLISTERS.

The following editorial 10 taken from
the Philadelphia North american,
when John Sharp Williams played |
revivalist and pleaded in a mock SER
mon with the Republican majority in
Congress either to permit or refuse to
permit vote on the Stevens Bill, to
place wood pulp on the free list, the
Democratic leader furnished good fun.
But it was more serious comedy
than it was considered by the Repub-
lican congressman, who grinnsd at
his satire and ignored his plea. AS
matter of fact, his call for thirty menu
bers oil the majority to join the solid
minority in vote expressive of the
real sentiment of majority of Con-
gress, and the wish practically of the
entire public was the bitters.t of re-
Dukes
what Mr.. Williams did was to
place two fly blisters on the Cannon
clique and on those who submit so
meskly TO the Speakers vicious tyran-
ny They laughed on Wednesday.
But they will not laugh when the
sting of those blisters grows hottest
next November
THE first blister was put upon the
stand patters.' These have been
blind to the changes in public senti-
ment. They have been too narrow
miEded to understand the causes that
have induced the true leaders of the
party to declare for tariff revision.
The result is that the Democratic
leader was enabled to show the false
Republican leaders in an attitude oil
absurd perplexity, unable to advance
or retreat without disqualification.
And the second Williams blister
was his striking exposition Of the com
plete control of the Cannon machine
over the once representative House OF
Representatives.
Truth never was more stingins
than his plea for only thirty gooc
Republicans to sign the petition t
the Speaker already signed by 16:
Democrats, to grant recognition t,
some one to move the passage of bill
aimed at an ubiquitous and oppressiv,
monopoly.
"Mr. Williams is right There ar
many more than thirty Republican
Congressman who, in their hearts
know the justice and the need of sucl
legislation. But they sit more lik
mice than men, fearing Cannon NOR
than the will of the whole people, ex
