there arose a discussion Of the work of
Umpire Hank O'Day. After doing a nice
Job on Thursday Hank cut loose all the
bad decisions In his system yesterday.
and unfortunately most OF them were
aired at the Giants. In fact. when all
was over. the Giants felt that they had
won as big a victory over O'Day az they
had v the Pirates.
The one bad break by O'Day hat al
most lost the game for New York arose
In the eighth inning-the same round In
which, they finally hammered out a vic
tory. Herzog was on first. n with no

the first two over for Fletcher. The next
one went II yard wide OF the plate and
the Giants were jumping up in Joy
when all of a sudden O'Day refused TO
call II either a ball or a strike. He had
been saying something to Arfe Latham
on the coaching ines and he claimed
hat he did not see the ball.
Fletcher got one more ball and thai

-.',- - - &c., -t.-.1 --"'
Worms holes are often dug three
or four feet deep, and, in cold coun-
I tries, as far as seven or eight feet
under the surface.
These holes go straight down or
in slightly oblique direction. At
the bottom there is a small. round
compartment with perhaps a few
small stones or pebbles in it, for the
worms do not like to lie close against
cold earth.
During hot summer weather or
in the cold frost of winter the worms
remain at the bottom of their holes
curled up singly or in balls of three
or four.
The whole length of this narrow
hole has a lining of dark mould.
Near the top, for a few inches, the
lining is made of leaves fattened
and pasted all round against the
earth. In that softly lined part the
worm likes to lie all day in damp or
cold weather with his head just con-
cealed beneath the level of the
ground or poking up from the sur
face. Through this habit of lying
at the top of their little homes, with
their heads stuck out at the door, the
worms are easily caught and pulled |
up by the birds.

HOW TO STERILIZE OYSTERS
Freed From All Germs o..
Of Disease. --

The danger Of eating oysters ia
ken from polluted sources has been
frequently proved by outbreaks of
typhoid fever and other intestinal
complaints among those who have
been unfortunate enough to consume
them. 1t now appears that there is
an easy and efficacious method of
obviating this danger. At recent
meeting of the French Academic des
Sciences NJ. Henneguy submitted an
account of experiments recently car
ried out by NJ. Fabre Domergue at
the Concarpeau laboratory, with the
object of discovering some means of
preventing the accidents which arise
from eating contaminated oysters.
As the result Of these experiments,
NJ. Henneguy was able to state that
oysters taken from beds reeking with
sewage and typhoid germs can be
rendered absolutely sterile by the
simple process of keeping them for
Is days in tanks of filtered water.
This treatment, while freeing the
bivalves from all germs of disease,
has no deteriorating effect upon the
oysters themselves. They remain
as fat and well favored as when !
taken from the parent bed. In view
Of the simplicity and efficacy of the !
method, we may expect in a couple !
of weeks to find the restaurants ma
king feature of sterilized oyst ).

An
awakening
BY MARY POWELL

mo, dear, / really do not want
you to go. You know l always main
tain that women are out of place at
political meetings"
l spoke with decision, although l
was very sorry to disappoint my
dear little Cousin Nell. She was
not my own cousin, but l always
called her Cousin Nell. But on this
point / felt | must be firm. 1t was
matter about which / had always
held strong views and l could not
allow Nell to act in opposition to
those views without uttering a pro-
test.
Nell was a dear girl and 1 intend
ed that one day she should be my
wife. That was why ! felt it to be
essential that she should share my
opinions. Lately had had some
reason to fear that she sympathized
with those misguided women who
demand the franchise, and therefore
l wished her clearly to understand
how much l disapproved of women
meddling with politics.
Fancy bothering this little curly
head about the difficulties the gov
eminent has to face in Ireland, the
form the new education bill will
take and a dozen other such dry-as-
dust topics. 1 wonder how much
you would understand and how
l should manage to wake you up at
the end Of the evening" 1 said, play
fully, as l pulled one of her golden
locks.
"I've read quite a lot about all
these things. Why, the vicar tells
me all about his fears for the future
of the village children. Poor little

self as to what may be in store for
them. But you'll be a nice boy and

The following up Of a report is
often as improbable as the search
for the end Of the rainbow, or the
childish attempt to scoop the moon

however, a satisfying exercise Of nat
ural instincts on the part Of born

Crockett gives an instance of this
readiness to take up a clew and fol-
low it TO the end.
A south country laird, with his
man John, was riding to market.
The laird and John were passing

turned his thumb over his shoulder
and said: "John, I saw to tod (fox)

John, all his hunting blood instant

having first, of course, stopped the

The laird rode his way, and all
day was foregathering with the GRO
MES at the market town. business
in which his henchman would ably
and very willingly have seconded
him.
1t was the hour of evening, and
the laird rode home. He came to
mighty excavation on the hillside.
The trench was both long and deep.
Very tired, and somewhat short
grained in temper, Joh= was seated
on a mound of earth, vast as the
foundation Of a fortress. There's
nae fox here, laird p said John. WHIP

The laird was not put out. He
was, indeed, exceedingly pleased
with himself.

WERE PROSECUTED IN JAPAN
Christians Of the Middle Ages Found
Dark Days in Land Of
Mikado.

There we're once a million Chris
tians in Japan. And what is still
more painful, there were a million
Christians there prior to the visit
OF Commodore Perry's feet in 1853,
which broke. the sleep of two centu-
ries and a half, William Frost Bish-
op, d. d., writes in the Christian
Observer. They were there prior
to the $50 years during which Japan
was tightly closed to the outside
world. Francis Xavier himself was
IN Japan for years, arriving there in
l549-Navier the mighty, Xavier
the earnest and successful. In little
over half a century the Christians
numbered a million. They were ex-
terminated and left no visible trace.
And it will never, never do to say
the work was not genuine, that the
priests were not noble, and that their
disciples were not self-sacrifcing
and true.
Read how they died; how they
met death in executions and battles
how they were mangled and cruel
fed. Nowhere in history have men
endured prosecutions and encoun-
tered death in forms more frightful.
In no land have Gods people died in
the faith with greater courage and
frmness.
This century Of Christianity
in the sunrise kingdom, with
its million members, extend
ed from 1850 onward. The
country was in a very unsettled state
and at length prominent Christians
were drawn into treacherous
schemes, which meant nothing less
than treason. The political form of
Aavier's Christianity was undoubt-
edly a peril to the independence Of
Japan. Hence his disciples were or
dered out of the country, and all
who did not leave were slain. Eu-
rope was doing much the same with
herlheretics through tortures and in
QUESTIONS. Religious liberty in that
age was known in no part Of the
globe. ---.----
