The Newport miner. [volume] (Newport, Wash.) 1899-current, 1910-07-28

There is good prospect that the
Newport ball team will be given a new
lease on life and started forth much
stronger than early in the season. Mike
Fox, the speedy pitcher, who last year
developed from. an unknown into the
best local man that has eyer donned a
uniform, is expected hack in week or
two from the Montana prairies. Mike
has been pitching great ball this season,
and has become the terror of the catch
ers. His terrific speed fractured the
wrist of one catcher, broke two fingers
for another, and the third lost his nerve
when he got behind the bat and started
to run, the ball hitting him between the
shoulders and he had to be carried off
the field. Harvey Slack is expected to
be here soon and will undertake to do
the backstop work for Mike.
EColville's ball team has made great
record this year, and after losing the
first game 70 Chewelah. has garnered an
unbroken string of Is victories. They
want three day series with our boys,
and If Mike and Slack get here soon the
date may be arranged.

The Last of the Rufus.

In 1862 the rage for ruffs. such as are
seen on many monumental efagies, be-
gan to decline A writer In the Lon
don Chronicle Of that year says Of gen.
tlemen's dress, Their cuffs entirely
cover their wrists, and only the edges
Of their ruff1es are to be seen." 1t Is
said that a distaste for runs was first
created so far back as 1913, when a
woman named Turner wore them on
her trial for the murder by poison Of
Sir Thomas Overbury. The French
revolution Of 1889 much Influenced
British fashion, and the picturesque
cooked hat and ruff1es then gave way
generally to round hats and small
cuffs. The period Of their final dlsuse
cannot be easily determined, as men
Of old fashioned or eccentric habits
have worn ruffled shirt fronts within
quite recent memory similar to those
which, according to Planche's Ellis
tory Of British Costume" originated
in the seventeenth century. .e

WHIPPED BY MACHINERY.
Automatic Fiosgsrs Ussd by ssvsra
European Armies.


European Armiss.
Automatic logging machines are in
use among the military forces Of sew
eral European nations. For many
years the whipping was always done
by soldiers under the command Of an
officer. and the punishment varied, &C.
cording to the personal relations sub
sisting between the soldier and his VIC
tim 1t was to correct this disadvan-
tage that the fogging machine was In
vented.
The machine is automatic in action,
and as soon as the culprit Is fastened
In position a spring is frightened or
loosened to gauge the exact force Of
the blow. A pointer is moved over a
dial to the requisite number Of strokes
and the mechanism is started.
With perfect regularity the victims
back is scourged by the throngs, the
handle Of the whip being moved by
screw device after each stroke 80 that
the lash does not fall on the same spot
throughout the punishment.
Each blow Is Of uniform severity.
and as soon as the required number
has been given the machine comes to
a rest, and the offender is released.
with the assurance that the exact pun
ishment ordered has been meted out
to him-Harper's Weekly.

According to the investigations Of a
Frenchman, the credit Of inventing the
conductors baton belongs to Lully, the
composer. who eventually had cause to
regret his invention. Before he adopt
ed the baton conductors were In the
habit Of pounding on the door with
their feet or clapping their hands TO
mark the time. Lully found 1t wearfs
some to keep his foot constantly In mo-
ton and so used stick to strike the
floor and beat time. He used q pole
six feet long. One day he brought
down the pole with such force that It
struck his foot and made q deep
wound he paid no attention to the
matter. The wound grew worse and,
ultimately caused his death. After
his limo conductors tried more and
more to improve the baton, and 1t was
ultimately brought to Its present form.

followed by the we'll to do classes it
Involves the wearing of special gar

BURNING THE DEAD.
A Custom That Can b Traced Sack
70 the Earliest Ages.

a Custom That Can b Traced Sack
70 the Earliest Ages.
Cremation has been practced By
most Of the nations OF the earth from
the earliest ages, and, although IN pa
gan countries It may have taken the
form Of fire worshiping, there can be
no doubt that its adoption by the an
clients was for the most part prompt
ed by other than religions reasons.
Greeks ascribe its Introduction to Her
cules, who, having sworn to transmit
the body Of Argus to his father,
thought this the most convenient way
Of fulfilling his promise. According to
Homer, the burning of the dead was
common practice among the Greeks
long before the Trojan war. but the
earliest record Of 1t Is among the
Scythians, who inhabited the vast re-
gion known under the name Of Tar
tary. Slender accounts handed down
concerning the manners Of some Of the
ancient natives of Hindustan also al
Jude to the custom. The idea Of puri-
fication by fire was In all ages univer-
sal, and with good reason. Some be-
lieved that the body was unclean after
the departure Of the soul, and it was
therefore deemed necessary that 1t
should be purified by fire. Ovid ex-
pressed the general opinion Of his time
when he said that the soul was not
completely separated from the body
until the latter was consumed on the
pyre. The Athenians invariably after
q battle burned the slain.
