London, July 2T.-An engagement between Austrians and SerVians is re- ported to have occurred on the Dan ube, but no details are available and it is not considered to have been of importance. As far as the censorship permits, it is known that Austria has not yet opened her military opera tions.
 Meanwhile diplomacy is proceeding with energy along two separate lines to avert, if possible and. if impossible, to localiZe the war. First, Sir Edward Grey. the British secretary of state for foreign affairs has proposed to the powers a scheme for joint mediation which it is stated. France and Italy have already accepted. Germany has not yet replied and her acceptance Is regarded as doubtful.
 For the Four Powers. Sir Edward Grey explained in the house of commons his Idea. which was that the four powers-Great Britain,
 + rance, Germany and IJaiy-shouid cooperate in an endeavor to ar range the dispute between Austria and
 Servia on the basis of Servia's reply to the Austrian ultimatum. This re-

 First BIoodshed.
 These were the outstanding features of the day which, despite the first bloodsned Tn the Austro 'Servian con- fiict registered a slight but distinct gain in optimism regarding the situa- tion.
 The British ambassador made no concrete proposals. It is understood he told the German foreign minister that Great Britain's object was not to intervene in the Austro-Servian con- troversy which, he declared was not England's affair. but to endeavor to France and Germany, by action at Vienna, and St. Petersburg, could prevent the spread of the conflict.
 The French ambassador proposed that Germany use her influence at Wiz enua in favor of moderation.
 He was informed that Germany was perfectly willing to let the other pow . CTS try. but. as Austria's ally, could not interfere with Austria's freedom of action.
 Troops Withdrawn From Frontier.

THE NATIONAL GAME

There are few people in this
try who do not understand baseball.
There are few who know it's history.
The game will be IS years old to-
morrow. On June 10. 1886, the first
match game of baseball on record was
played by the Knickerbocker and New
York clubs at Hoboken, N. j. 1t was
a pastime sport. The players were
members of leading New York fami-
lies. That fact impaired to the con-
test a social tinge.
The diamond was the same as that
seen today. but the game was strik-
iugly different. The batter said when
he wanted the ball thrown. The de-
livery was always an CUMBERLAND"
toss. No gloves. masks or protectors
we're used. The catcher stood well
back and caught the ball on the
bound. II he caught the third strike
the batter was out, otherwise he had
TO put him out at first. The scouts, >
or fielders, were allowed to catch the
ball on the bounce. The team that
first scored 81 runs. or aces as they
were her called. won the game. The
defeated team bought the dinner for
all hands at the tavern"
The development of the game to its
present professional and immense pro-
portions is more familiar to the N
eral public. Its scope is indicated by
the fact thai 5000 professional ball
players draw over 5 6 10000 a year
and that 10000. 900 fans pay rel
$40. 900. 900 a year at the gates. Popu-
lar interest in the game is denoted
by the fan fever that RACES every
where. from the sand lots OF village
and city lots to the grand stands of
the major leagues.
Baseball is distinctively an Ameri-
can game. but 1t is rapidly assuming
an international character. 1t will
soon hold the world in its grip
