handful of dust at the official and, of
course, was at once banished from the
game. 1t is very true that there are
often very unsatisfactory decisions made
by the umpires. but 1t Is hard to see
where anything is gained by carrying
protests too far Usually the players
are banished and suspended and the team
is weakened, where there is not an in
stance on record where an umpire has
reversed a decision which involved moth
ing but judgment.
There was some brilliant fielding in

Of the most interesting struggles played
on the local grounds this season. Until
the eighth there was always a chance
for the Nationals to forge to the front.

sensational plays, preventing the Ath-

in April Ordinary hair sells for % to %
cents a pound. This common grade of
mohair. which commands no especially
high price, is that whose length Is less
than twelve inches; the ordinary fleece of
one years growth measures about ten
inches in length. The average mature doe
will shear from six to nine pounds of mo-
hair each year, while the full-grown buck
will yield from nineteen to fifteen pounds.
Previous to shearing, the flock Is graded
into classes of bucks. does, kids, and
wether. The fleeces are marked accord
ing to this classification. The American
Angora Goat Association maintains a spe-

KISS IN DARK FOR ECONOMY.
u Was Jersey Husbands Way, Says
Wife who sues.

From the New York Tribune.
A novel way for a married man to
solve the high cost of living problem
10 to avoid maintaining a home. leaving
his wife to live with her folks and he
remaining with his people. That is what
Edward Miles, of Jersey City, did. his
wife, Elizabeth. of Bayonne. alleges in
her proceedings for divorce.
They We're married in 1895 and parted
two years later. She declared he never
supported her. only kissed her in the
dark, and his idea of having a good
time with her was when he called Sunday
evenings and took her out for walk.
She even charges that when he invited
her to have an ice cream soda he always
first got the nickel from her. His mean
ness she averred. was shown only to
her in that he stayed out at nights and
that his bank account. started in 1sss.
had reached only s24e.5i. including inter-
est, twelve years later.
The husband insisted he had supported
her and that he had paid her doctors
bill. She admitted he had paid the ply
sician. but insisted the reason she re-
quired the services of the medical man
was that she had not had enough to eat.
The case is before Judge McDermott, of
Jersey City. who has directed the law
yers to file briefs.

Thus defeat followed defeat until we

out the operators side of the case before
we asked for 1 conference and prepared
ourselves to meet every possible argu-

A MILLION GOATS.

Funi 7 am md fHeslde.
There are a million Angora goats in
America and yet we import annually over
30 per cent of the mohair used In our do
mestic manufactures. There is no reason
why our farmers cannot maintain enough
goats to supply our domestic trade with
superior mohair.
The banner goat farm Of America is To-
Gated in Texas and numbers 1000 head

the owner of this ranch realized a net
profit of 81 an animal from his fiocks.
