First Three Will Be Played
Here and Rest in
Providence.
BY KIDDO.

Today the Tigers begin a six-day
series with the Providence a
Three games will be played in Newark
where they will wind up h set-to. On
Sunday the Tigers will bid adieu -
these parts and strike their second
western trip, which Is expected to be
the toughest of the season.
Yesterdays victory over the Orioles
put the scrappy Tigers in shape for the
battle with the Grays. There is much
hope in the camp of the Tigers that
they will easily win four out of six
games with the Grays, who are hardly
putting up the article of ball thai they
were when they appeared here on their
first visit.
Hugh Duffy realizes that he will have
to get new men In his lineup If he
would stay in the first division. Wise
Judges, though, have picked Buffalo,
Providence and Newark as the contend
ers for the pennant. Newark in its
present shape is not the ball club that
Buffalo is. That club has practically
beer intact for three years and IS a
woodworking machine.
The Tigers are only a three-quarter
team. but capable of playing surpris-
ingly good ball on the road. They are
even more feared than the Grays by
the Bisons.
Hugh Jennings. manager of the De-
troit Tigers, Is more than interested
in the Eastern League race on &C.

fancy price several years age, will prob
ably never be seen in a New York uni
form again. 1t was reported here yes
terday that the New York club had
asked for waivers on Shannon. At the
same time 1t was admitted hat the
management had asked for waivers or
Beecher. The excellent showing tina
Mccormick has made in left field ha.
crowded Shannon out, and the Giants
decided to get rid of him at once.
There are also rumors that Seymour

The biggest day of the season was on a.

ished in the cool of the early morning
caught black bass. Albert Messenger caught
four. James Mulligan four, Charles BASTARD
three. and John Watson two and a pickerel.
Pitchfork carp parties are popular along
the Pasaic River from Alton to Chatham.
Saturday afternoon four farmers drove nine
carp out of some deep pools Into shallow

Two of the fish weighed over twenty
pounds. and the others around ten. It wa
lots of fun to watch the sportsmen when
they got the fish In a tight corner. Every
man In the party fell in the water more
than once.
The coolest spot to be found yesterday
was on a fishing banks steamer. When the
anglers arrived In Newark they wondered
at the heat. Some of the men grunted over
the loads of fish they carried. Joseph
Walker. Of Thirteenth avenue, had thirty
five pounds of ling. Emil Kreisher three
sea bass and six ling. Herman Bother four
bass, a fuke and five ling. Carl APPEL five

Bnscbrfi as Well
There are other sports beside cycling
racing on Sunday, but some people
like the exciting game of spill ana
bump TO the one Of hit and run. and.
Of course. every enc to his or hes
choice. But this is a good move as
far as the interest Of the sporting world
Is concerned. There must be recrea-
tion for those who work the six days
Of the week. There must BIO a law FOR
the mill hand as we'll as for the man
OF leisure. and why not?
Yesterday, for instance, was indeed a
hot day Deaths were recorded In the
sporting world yesterday throughout the
country that simply made the usual Cd
server sit up and take notice. But
these deaths were not due to sports.
1t was due to the weather. and IL our
laws of the land will only provide more
open places where men and women
and children can so to spend q rev
hours of pleasure there will be fewer
deaths. One death narrated yester-
day was that of a man In Lexington.
KY, who stopped into a public gymna-
sum and partook of 2 goblet or Ice
water. He dropped dead. Another
man, president Of the Columbia Base
ball League. was talking to john T.
Brush and Mugsey McGraw, OF the
New York Club. when he suddenly
turned and dropped dead. If "Mugsey'
had his usual say about things, there
ID nothing surprising In the death OF
the poor fellow.
aBut Give Us More sports.'
But there Is one thing. as far as the
members of the sporting world Is con-
cerned. The more events there are on
d Sunday anywhere the more general
fun there Is to be had, and the more
pure sporting pleasure there is going
to be gained from It.

A short while ago there was started
a movement to have the kits of one of
the British Highland regiments dis
carded in favor of ordinary trousers.
It was objected that the men would be
discontented at this change, and the
colonel gave orders that census Of
the regiment be taken. in order to as
certain the wishes of the men them
selves The colonel is descendant Of
a long line of Scotch lairds, and strives
earnestly to uphold the old traditions.
The sergeant who took the census Of
the regiment finally appeared with his
report.
"All the men, with the exception Of
three, are in favor of the change, sir"
he said.
Indeed" the colonel said. "Te;l me

men. They shall be promoted.

History Of This Now Very Rare and
Valuable Ware.

History Of This Now Very Rare and
Valuable Ware.
Sheffield plate differs from all other
plated ware in that the plating was
done on the sheet metal before the
article was shaped. Before and since
then plating of various sorts has been
applied only to the finished piece. as in
our electroplating process. Moreover
the plating was done on copper. while.
modern base metal is usually COM
posed of an amalgam Of copper, nickel
and zinc.
Furthermore, it is possible for the
collector to secure examples of early
Georgian and so called Queen Anne
work in Sheffield plate, while the
rarity and high money value of silver
ware of that period make it's acquisi-
ton extremely difficult. Sheffield plate
historically and artistically is as worthy
Of place beside old china and old
mahogany as is old silverware.
In @1742 one Thomas Bolsover Of
Sheffield. England, described in the
histories as an ingenious mechanic"
accidentally fused some silver and cop
per while repairing knife. He began
experimenting, seeking for method Of
plating copper with silver for the mans
ufacture of small articles. In 1743, to-
gether with Joseph Wilson, he set up q
factory for the manufacture of buc-
kles, snuffboxes and knife handles.
Joseph Hancock soon got hold Of the
| secret and Derfectinp IT demonstrated
that it was possible to initiate the
finest and most richly embossed silver
ware. Settling in Sheffield, he started
the manufacture Of all sorts Of domes-
tic pieces. Beginning modestly with
horsepower, he later added water pow
er for the rolling process. Other man
ufacturers followed his example. and
Sheffield plate soon began to replace
pewter on the tables of the English
middle classes. Altogether we know
of twenty-three important manufactur.
ers of this ware.
The industry fourished until the
middle of the nineteenth century, and
so few pieces Of copper rolled plate
were made after that time that they
need not concern the collector. Electro
plating was discovered or invented by
q medical student of Rotterdam, neal
Sheffield, and the new process wal
patented on March rs, 1910. BY 1851
the new ware was on the market ev
erywhere, and the industry had beer
revolutionfzed. COUNTRY Life In Amer

THE BUTCHER
OF GUATEMALA
MANY Innocent Persons ARC
Shot to SaIVe His In.
jufed Finger

Mexico City, April 25.-President
Manuel Estrada Cabrera, the "butch-
err of Guatemala, has started another
reign of terror following the attempt
to assassinate him.
His soldiers, who have made house
to house canvass of the country in
search of the assailants, are said to
have shot seven innocent persons on
the pretense that they attempted tc
escape arrest.
Although the president was only
slightly wounded in a finger. he will
evidently carry out the same blood
thirsty policy he followed last year al
the time in similar situation, wher
he put 16 men to death without trial.
Cabrera is known as the most ty
rannical ruler of the Central American
republics.
