NATIONAL LEAGUE. =
Standing of the Clubs.
FANS AT FEVER HEAT.

Chicago, ILL.,, Aug. 27.-One of the
most exciting races in the history Of
the National league pennant took on
wider interest yesterday by the draw.
ing still closer together of the clubs
in the three corner contest.
The New York team, fresh from a
clean sweep of the series in Pitts
burg, and a run of seven consecutive
victories which had put them in the
lead in the race, met with check in
Chicago, where the champions gave
them decisive beating. At the same
time the Pittsburg team won a holly
contested game from Philadelphia,
and with Chicago, moved up a little
closer to New York. This morning
the leaders has a margin of % points
over Pittsburg, while the latter team
is but two points ahead of Chicago.
Baseball enthusiasts, believing that
the present series in the two cities
will have probably a decisive bearing
on the outcome of the pennant race,
are worked up to fever heat. In
tense interest in the play is mani
tested in all parts of the country and
even beyond it's borders. How wide
spread is the hold of the national
game in it's present existing phase is
indicated by the demand from the
Island of Cuba, for instance, for all
particulars of the games, full box
scores of the series between the lead
ers being cab1ed by the Associated
Press each night to Havana.

She Was Deliberate,

It is said that Dinah Mulock Craik,
the famous author of "John Halifax,
Gentleman" made habit Of leaving
at her bank the manuscript Of each of
her stories as soon as it was completed.
It would remain there perhaps six
months, and then she would call for 1t
and see how the story affected her
after that lapse Of time. If it pleased
her, the manuscript was sent to the
publisher. Otherwise it was rewritten
or thrown away.

Ear Wauqinu,

Only animals with long and dropping
ears are able to wag them. A rabbit,
for instance, can do what it likes with
its ear, dropping one or both and lay
ing them fat along its back when
dashing through thick cover. Hares
are still more brisk in ear movements.
But short cared beasts, like weasels
and stoats. are unable to wag their
ears in any degree, although they have
enough ear to wag il they had the
power.

UNDESIRABLE PERSONS.

Seventeen houses in the district south
of Pennsylvania avenue, Washington,
have been cleared of their occupants as
the result of a crusade on the part oil
the authorities to rid that section Of un-
desirable persons.
This action is only the beginning Of 8
sweeping reform, which has for its 1lti-
mate object the driving Of certain class
of men and women from the seat of the
nations government. A few months
ago the word was passed by city officials
that the residents OF the district In ques-
ton would be permitted to make their
homes 10 a designated part OF Delaware
avenue, not far removed from the Capt.
tol, but even this "mercifup plan now
sppesrs to have been abandoned. The
latest edict is that no Designated
"bomes" in the city Of Washington for
this class of persons will be allowed to
exist under the shallow of the dome OF
the Capitol or anywhere else within the
confines of the Distric, of Columbia.
