This proposal k contained in a letter issued by Alr. Taylor yesterday to all the managers of teams in the above named cities.

Thus it might be arranged that Prescott swinging south would kick up- the diamond dust in Phoenix. Tucson.

 The success of such schedule would largely depend on how well matched were the representative teams. The more nearly their lineups could be confined for the present to the amateurs players now composing the hines the better. for expense is an item which must be counted in. when such long jumps are considered.

One Of the Many Tragedies Enacted In
Polynesia.
1t is not so very long ago that can
nibalism was rife throughout Poly

eaten was the almost invariable fate
Of sailors who chanced to be so unfor-
tunate as to be cast away on any of
the outlying little visited islands.
Perhaps the most awful tragedy Of
the kind on record was that which
happened in connection with the loss
Of the st. Paul, Captain Pennard, while
on a voyage from Hongkong to sgd

sides a full crew, 327 passengers, most
ly emigrants.
On Sept. 80, 1858, she was wrecked
on the island Of Rossel, but all got
safely on shore. a little later the cap
tain and eight of the crew left the
island in search of assistance and were
picked up by the Prince of Den

steamer Styx was dispatched to the
island and brought away one emf

PhiladeIphia's Anti-tipping Scheme.

Philadelphia's Anti-tipping Scheme.
A Philadelphia acquaintance has in.
vented a way Of getting rid Of the
brushing" nuisance. He places a
silver quarter in the hollow Of his
right hand and, turning to the boy
who is pretending to find dust upon bis
clothes, says:
"You are such a tremendous brush
err will Civ you this money If you
can brush it out Of my hand"
Eyes, sir" answers the boy with
glee unless he has tried the act pre-
viously. In that case he gives up the
job.
AS a general proposition, the most
facile brushing" will not sweep a
coin off a human hand. Why this
happens to be true will be less under
stood after the reader has tried it him
self One might almost say that a
coin cannot be brushed with a whisk
broom off the back as well as out Of
the palm Of a hand
