Ochs Drafted.

President George |. Hammonds, oi
the Blue Grass League, has received 9
letter from James E. Farrell, presi.
dent of the National Association, en-
closing a check for $500, draft money
for the Paris Base Ball Club for
Ochs, the crack center fielder of the
Bourbonites during the last season,
who has been drafted by the Norfolk
Club of the Virginia League.
During the season Ochs was one OF
the most brilliant fielders in the Blue
Grass League and led the whole league
in run-getting. far in advance of ssme
of the old players who have been in
the big leagues. Ochs will report at
Norfolk in the early spring for prac-
tice.
Following is the record Ochs made
during his stay in Paris after coming
from Dayton: Played in 112 games,
at bat 476 times times, IA runs, 1877
base hits, put out 286, thirty assists.
eight errors, batting average 288 and
fielding average of 976.
With this record it is no wonder that
the Virginia League picked up the
clever little fielder and placed him in
class B. The many admirers OF Ochs
from the Blue Grass League will
watch his career in the higher leagues
with interest.

To Collect Taxes.

While the Burley Tobacc Society re-
mained in Winchester the question of
municipal taxation was allowed to re-
main quiescent. Since. however, the
Society decided to move to Lexington
in defiance of every instinct of graft
tude or appreciation for help rendered
in time of need, says the Winchester
Democrat. and added insult to injury
by saying that Clark county was a
"short horse and soon curried,' it has
been decided to lcok into the matter
and see if there is not something due
in the way of taxation. These taxes
60 back at least four years and during
some of these years there must have
been considerable money iE the various
banks of the city belonging to the So
ciety. The officials of the company will
be cited to appear at the next meeting
of the Winchester Council in order to
disclose what property they had on
April / of each year subject to taxa
tion and which was omitted by the As
SCISSOR.

TO PROMOTE GOOD
ROADS

Topeka, Kas.. Dec. 14.-If the
good roads cause is to be promoted
by earnest and Intelligent discussion
of the subject by men well qualified
to speak on various phases of the

impetus as result of the tenth an
nual convention of the National Good
Roads association, which convened
in this city today. Nearly one thou
sand delegates were present at the
opening. including state and city Of
ficials, engineers and good road ex-
perts from all sections of the COUNTRY.
Prominent among the speakers to be
heard during the two days session

BASEBALL MEN N
SESSION

New York, Dec. 14.-Major league
baseball owners and patrons will be
particularly interested in the meet
ings of the two big organizations,
which will hold the boards here dur
ing the remainder of the week. The
magnates of the National league went
into session behind closed doors at
the Waldorf-Astoria shortly before
noon today The meeting opened
with the avowed conviction on the
part of all concerned that some excit-
ing discussions would occur before
the session closed.
The election of a president of the
league is the most important bust
ness of the meeting. For weeks past
the baseball atmosphere has been
tinged with war talk and much has
been heard of the fight to prevent
the retention of Johnny Heydler in
the presidency. John NJ Ward. the
former manager of the Giants; JOS
eph d. O'Brien, head of the Ameri-
can association; James A. Hart, for
mer head of the Chicago club, and
several others have been mentioned
as probable successors to HekdIer.
Today. however. it looked as if
Messrs. Murphy of Chicago and Eb-
bits of Br oklyn were destined to
fail in their efforts to GUST Moydler
and that the latter undoubtedly
ganizatiOn
Several other matters in addition
to the election of president are like
ly to make things lively at the meet
ing. Among these are the alleged
plans of Murphy and Brush to make
the National league a syndicate" by
taking over the Philadelphia club.
and the effort of Garry Herman of
Cincinnati to cut short the league
schedule and provide for a series of
inter-league games at the conclusion
of the National and American lea
CUES playing schedules.
In comparison with the National
league session the meeting of the
American league tomorrow promises
to be an exceedingly harmonious af-
fair. The meeting will be devoted to
winding up the affairs of the past
season and to an informal discussion
of the schedule and other plans for
next year. When the two leagues
have finished their business the mag
mates will come together in joint SEES
sion TO consider the advisability of
changing the 154-game arrangement.
On this subject wide variety of
opinion exists. President Johnson
and other leaders of the American
league believe that the season should
be reduced TO 40 games, while the
National league magnates. on the
other hand. are understood to be in
favor of frightening the season to
16S games.

Illinois Legislature in Extra Session.

Springfield. ILL.,. Dec. 1.-THE Il
linois general assembly convened in
special session today, pursuant to the
call issued last week by Governor
Deneen. Direct primaries and deep
waterways are specified in the gov
ernor's call as the chief subjects to
be considered and acted upon by the
legislators. A direct plurality prim-
airy law is designed to take the place
of the old Oglesby law. which was
declared unconstitutional by the
state supreme court In addition to
the direct primary and deep water
ways legislation. it is probable that
the session will give it's attention to
an industrial insurance measure. re-
quiring employers to pay indemnities
to widows and orphans following
such disasters as the recent Cherry
mine disaster.

THE old SPINSTER
PRAYED TO SAINTS

BALTIMORE, Md, April SIN de-
spair yearning French spinster wrote
out this prayer to several saints of
the calendar:
st. Mary, let me marry.
st. Privet, let him be soldier.
st. Augustine, or doctor.
St. Anatole, or a schoolmaster.
st. Roman, or his assistant.
st. Blaise, l shall be pleased.
st. Nicholas, don't forget me,
st. Irenoeus, | am the eldest.
st, Colette, don't let my younger sis
ter marry first.
st. Simon, l should like him to be
fair.
st. Amateur l will take him, what
ever his complexion.
st. Fabian let him have a bit OF
money.
st. Pretexatus, let him have a good
position.
st. ANGELA, let him be faithful.
st. Leander, let him be tender.
st. Apollinarius, let him be good
tempered.
st. Gregory, don't let him drink.
st. Thomas, don't let him smoke.
st. Philomena, let me be the master
st. Madeleine, don't put it off to
next year.
st. Ferdinand, l have waited so long
st. Eucharius, let me have this win

But the remarkable thing is that
this written prayer which, by the way
is rhymed in the original, but no more
poetic for that, was produced in the di
vorce court. After having waited sc
long the despairing spinster, who was
governess, did marry at last a flute

DOESN'T BELIEVE 32OOO,OOO
ACRES COTTON WASPLANTED

NEW YORK, April S.-A prominent
member of the cotton exchange, with
experience in the South as well as in
the local market, says: "They are
talking about an acreage of 32,O00,000
1t is claimed that there was that much
planted last year and the year before
last, but l do not believe it. l do not
believe that there was ever 32,000,000
acres planted in this country. l do
not think that it would be possible to
raise only 11,5OO,OOO bales on $4,000,
900 acres. The trouble is that the new
land is counted in but the land that
is abandoned is never taken out OF
the count. The acreage figures are,
to my mind, always incorrect and mis-
eading"

VERTICAL TRANSPORTATION.

Vertical transportation in New York
has reached enormouss proportions,
and according to a paper recently
read before the Electrical Engineering
society of Columbia university twice
as many people are carried vertically
as are carried horizontally every "a
hours.
Taking twenty-siX of the large Of
flee buildings in the lower part Of
the Borough of Manhattan, all of IS
floors or over, this authority states,
we find a total of 572 floors in all,
aggregating a height of approximately
one and one-third miles. In these
twenty-six buildings there are 116 ex-
press elevatorss travelling an aggre-
gate distance of 275 miles an hour and
averaging 243,OOO passengers a day.
These same twenty-siX buildings have
115 local elevators running approx
mately the same number of car miles
per hour, but carrying about $4,000
passengers per day This makes a
total of 231 elevators running 4,400
miles carrying total of $4,000 pes
sengers per day.
Taking the 5000 elevators used ex-
clusively to carry passengers in the
Borough of Manhattan and dividing
them into groups, allowing for the
number of persons carried We find
that they transport approximately g.
100000 passengers per day. From the
last report of the public service COM
mission we learn that only 100000
are carried per day by surface, ele-
waited, and subway cars in the entire

is no need of internal treatment in
any case of muscular or chronic rheu-

one or the other of these varieties.
