In each of the plays Osteen. who was
again sent to short by Manager Bres-
nahan, figured very prominently. Os-
teen also raped out two hits out of
twice at bat, he being hit once by
the pitcher, and his other time at the
plate being given a pass to first.
Jack O'Connor chose Buchanan,
the pitcher formerly owned by the
Browns. to work against the Cardinals
in the last game here. Three runs

nation, blem.shes, or discolorations,
its presence cannot be detected. IL

PRICE OF LAMARrlNE's POEM.
Pecuniary Value Which the French
Poet Put Upon His Work.

The Paris GauIois tells q good story
Of Lzmartines estimate o. the pc
cuuiaEy value OF his poetry.
It was in 1s4s, when he was at the
acme Of his glory and cabinet min
lister. He had jugt contributed La
MarsefIlaise de la Paix' to the Revue
des Deux Mondes. and Buioz, the
editor, called on him at the ministry
Il believe owe you ESQ. Here is the
money" said Lamartine. producing
a bundle OF banknotes.
Pray deduct the amount Of the
Pevue's Indebtedness to you for your
poem,y said the editor.
Il meant to make you a present OF
It," rejoined the poet
Not at all; insist upon paying
you"
How much?"
Your own price. whatever it may
be-"
''Ah, we'll; if you will have it so I
must obIige you" said Lamartine; and
with a magnificent gesture he swept
up the whole bundle of notes repre-
senting the ESQ and restored them,
with solemn dignity, to his pocket.

AL MATTER OF pRoPlNoulTH
Il Is the Event Near At Hand That
Counts Nest In Everything

The Seath OF hundreds Of people IN
a distant part Of the country from
where we live hardly arouses more
than passing interest, and the more or
less sudden taking away Of thousands
OF lives In some far remote land
eyokes no more than a word Of sym
pathy from those a long distance
away. But the single death near a
hand, the funeral across the street
makes the strongest possible mark On
the mind.
Propinqulty, in that as in everything
else, is what counts. The death IN the
family cuts into the heart for years
II accompanied by details that make it
a horror, the shock often remains with
the survivors to the end OF their own
lives. II the lost relative has met a
violent death, by accident OF other
wise, the anguish OF those left behind
Is all the more poignant and endur-
ing. Worst Of all, and most lasting in
its effect upon the survivors. is the
death where unexpected financial dis
tress or ruin follows the loss OF the
family head. It is a wretehed home
circle for many a year when the chief
is taken away. leaving only debts.
with no property, not even a little in
surance policy, behind.

Beneficial sneeze.

There is no more sure cure for an
attack Of faintness than a hearty
sneeze. 1t Immediately stimulates the
blood vessels of the brain. In many
persons fainting never goes so far
as a loss of consciousness or loss Of
control Of the limbs And in these
the sudden weakness is often brought
to an end by a sneeze caused by. ma
ture herself without any external aid.
A grain or two Of pepper, snuff or to-
bacoo introduced into the nose or tick
ling its interior lightly will usually
insure a sneeze. These simple proce-
dures o. others similar in character
may prove invaluable when smelling
salts and other elegant aids are abb
sent.
