Annapolis, Md, May 9-Georgetown
Unlversitys strong aggregation of ball
tossers came to Annapolis this afternoon,
and defeated the Mdshipmen by the
score OF to i.
Although both teams were faulty on a
few occasions. the game was the finest
exhibition that has been seen on the
academy diamond this season.
The visitors batted stronger and more
timely, and their fielding far outshone
that OF the Middies. The latter we're
credited with four bad errors. two OF
which contributed to as many runs for
the Washinstonians At"times the game
resolved itself into pitchers battle, and
although Devine, the clever Georgetown
pitcher had the better OF the argument,
Lanphier pitched a creditable game in
the face of the poor support given him
in a couple OF innings.
The Middies did some fine fielding in
the fourth inning, Jones and Dague each
making accurate throws from the outfield
to the plate, cutting off runners. The
visitors, however, scored their first run
in that inning by punching three hits.
The Middies also got their only run in
the same inning. 1t was the result of
Pallen's error OF Bacon's grounder. fol-
lowed by neatly placed bunts by Wilson
and Gillian.
Two hits and as many errors gave
Georgetown the other two runs in the
seventh inning.
Smith, third baseman of the Blue and
Gray team, was the particular bright star
OF the game He was on the job all the
time and succeeded in gathering IN some
difficult grounders and throwing the run
ner out at first
The largest crowd that has attended a
ball game here this season saw to-day's
contest There were many spectators
from Washington. including a band of
Georgetown rooters, and others, who
came down also to see the boat race and
other sports.

by her daughter. The seats were filled
before the large lady and her daughter

concentrated her gaze on the little man
and he politely arose and offered her
his seat. She accepted and he INDUCED
in that healthful exercise known as

What is the use of you standing there?

Some Suggestions AS to Lying.

There is not so much objection to
lying as there is to lack of art in
the telling of lie. 1t is no use to tell
q lie unless you are going to ac-
comphsh your purpose Lies can do
the work whether they are discovered
or not. 1t is all in the manner of tell
ing them. In the first place never tell
lie when the truth will do just as
well. This serves to establish your
reputation ana gives your lies a stand
ing they could not otherwise gain.
Never tell big lie to gain a small
object, nor tell a little lie to gain a
big object Let all your lies be big
and lusty fellows, and let them have
some big business in hand. These two
rules are really imperative if you ex-
pect to become a successful and pro-
ficient liar. Little lies for little things
are not worth telling.
Finally, always have the courage of
your lies Stick to EN-. If you are
not brave enough to stand by your
own lies, why send them out only to
be betrayed? A man is the rankest
sort of a coward that refuses to give
his lie any support when it crawls
back to him from the buffetings, beat
ings and rough usage of the populace.
Brace it up with manufactured cor
roborative evidence and artificial con-
f1rmation and send it out again re-
newed in spirit and vigor.-Washing-
ton Times.

Killed 1ss Ducks at One Shot.

Harry Malcolm, ex-deputy game
warden, sends to the Sun a photograph
of remarkable nine-barrel gun with a
single trigger, which has the effec-
tiveness of Gatling gun in slaughter
ing ducks. A single pull of the trig
ger fires off all the barrels, and one
discharge is said to have killed 1S9
ducks.
Mr. Malcolm, assisted by Messrs. r.
H. Cox, w. M. Lyon and Sidney Bar
Der, arrested party of hunters who
were using the gun to the great detri-
ment of the wild duck hunting sport
on the Potomac river. Seven men
were taken along with the gun, which
is of a type forbidden by law. Mr..
Malcolmn says that ror years they
have been unlawfully killing ducks
ana driving others from the Potomac
river and tributary creeks.
The capture of the outfit, he says, is
a great relief to the owners of lands
in the neighborhood. With the gun
were captured four sloops, seven big
guns, 100 decoys, seven skiffs, $50
pounds of powder and IS dead ducks.
