when he dropped a thrown ball which |

1t seems impossible for Buck to go
through a game without chucking in
at least one weird .heave. Until yes
terday none of the cratic pegs prov
ed costly. To the layman it looks as
though Buck is trying at times to
play too fast. On slow grounders,
with a fast man Logging it for first |
a hurried throw is imperative, and |
no one can make the play better than |
Weaver. --....
But Buck also has a tendency to
hurry his throws when he has plenty |
of time. This was in evidence in one |
of the Cleveland games last week.
Lelivelt burned a grounder to short |
which went to Weaver on the first
bound. He had the runner by at least
twenty feet. Instead of straighten-
ing up and making a sure throw,
Weaver cut loose with a hurried shot
and the result was a two-base error,
the ball travelling past Chase to the
visitors bench.
This is fault that can be easily
corrected. 1t is much better to have a
man too fast than too slow. But there.
is a happy medium.
Joe Tinker's team was forced to
take an even break with Kansas City,
but madeEthe Stovalls travel Is in

three of his pitchers, Fisk, LANCE and
Watson, and discovered that the lat

with the class of batting displayed in
the Federal League. The former Cub

seventh, after six runs had been
knocked out of the first two beavers.

Watson's work was the best of any
Chifed hurler so far displayed.
The game once more proved that
Tinker has fighting crew, which
never gives up until the last man is
out. Four runs behind at the start of
the eighth, they counted three, and
in the ninth Art Wilson swatted a
home run to knot the count. 1t was
his second four-baser of the game.
The links attacked Vengefully, but
as yet their onslaughts are not well
organized. Fifteen hits were regis
tered, but careless baserunning kept
them from amassing more runs.
Wilson got four hits for ten bases,
Beck got three safeties, as did Chad
bourne and Goodwin of the Kaws
StoVaII seems to have a good ball
team, which knows a whole lot about
the game. 1t is not an aggregation of
stars, There are enough old men to
balance the inexperience of the
youngsters, an ideal combination, and
one that will cause some trouble
throughout the league.
Today Tinker's team opens series

augurate the local season on the
North Side against the Kaws.
Main strength gave the Cubs
victory in st. Louis yesterday. They

batsmen. They hung up 13 hits, sew

Good, Sweeney, Zimmerman,

work, and Cheney was again wild,

May Go With A Parcel

Washington, March H.-fost-
master General Burleson to-day
signed an order which will permit the
attaching of a letter to a package
when both bear their respective rates
of postage and are addressed to the
same individual. The sending OF a
communication with a parcel post
nackage has not been permissible
heretofore.
Postal officials pointed out to-day
that it is often of utmost Importance
that the sender of an article OF mer-
chandise write a letter concerning II
and that, in order to avoid delay and
facilitate the transaction of business,
If is highly desirable that the parcels
and communications be delivered at
the same time. 1t was with this in
mind that to-day's order was issued.
The letter or communication is not
to be inclosed in the package, but is
to be tied or otherwise fastened to
the outside in such manner as to pre-
vent its separation from the package.
The new order is expected to enlarge
considerably the parcel post service.

GOld6eld Con. Statement

The report of A. H. Howe, secre-
tary and treasurer of the Goldfeld
Consolidated Mines Company, sub
mitted to the stockholders of the
corporation at their annual meeting
at Evanston, Wyoming, shows the
gross production up to January l of
this year to have been 1,778,30 tons
of ore of an average value of 1894
and total gross value of $50 .475, 201-
.O2. "Of this production, says the
report, $11, 200. 900 was made by
leasers in the early days and So, 70O,-
900 was made by the constituent
companies prior to their acquisition
by this company. The gross produc-
ton by the company itself, therefore,
has been approximately $45, 575, 900.
To date, the company has made divi-
dends amounting to S26, $50, 470.6O.
Since the compilation of Mr.. Howe's
report, the directors have declared
an additional dividend of 80 cents
per share, payable on April 80 to
stockholders of record March 81,
which will bring the total distribu-
ton paid in dividends up to the ST.
1893, 215, or a total of $7.70 per share.

kineranf Legislators
Reno Gazette: From nearly every
county in the State comes expression
of a real and genuine interest in the
selection of men for the next Legis-
lature who will represent something
besides a desire for a 60-day job with
travelling expenses.
1.-THE last Legislature of Nevada
probably had a larger percentage OF
jobless members than any recent
Legislature of any State. 1t also
had a very large percentage OF tran
sients, men without a fixed habit at
and without interest, Of incentive to
interest, in the communities or on
stituencies they assumed to repre-
sent. 1t would be of interest to
know how many of the members Of
that Legislature are no longer even
residents of the communities they
represented at Carson.
"a mar without a job is the last
man in the world to send to the Legis-
lature. If he hasn't the ability, the
stability, the gumption to fix himself
in some honorable business or en-
ployment, to keep himself employed,
he is infinitely worse than no repre-
sentative at all. The man who seeks
membership in the Legislature for the
money there is in it, is by that very
fact disqualified for such service.
There is hardly a community in the
State that has not suffered through
representation - or misrepresenta-
tion-of this sort, and the people are
becoming keenly alive to the effect
of their own indifference in previous
campaigns.
1.-The election of United States Sem
ators is no longer subject to Legisla-
tive action. 1t used to be that men
we're elected to the Legislature be-
cause they would support this or that
candidate for the United States Sem
ate. Their qualifications as law
makers, their ability to promote the
material interests of the State, were
seldom considered. That condition
is now removed and the people of
Nevada are pretty apt to scan and
scrutinize this year, both in primary
and in general elections, the candi-
dates for Legislative honors and
emoluments.

larkspur loco weed, death camas and

and is particularly bad for cattle.
Ordinarily. horses will not eat lark
spur, and sheep can eat it without
apparent injury.

WILSON'S ANNOUNCE ENGAGEMENT
President Al First Objected to McAdoo's
Are. Il IL Rumored

Washington, March 12.-Just as
society was despairing of an official
announcement from the White House
about the reported engagement of
Miss Eleanor Wilson to William G.
McAdoo, Secretary of the Treasury,
a statement was given out tonight
by the Presidents secretary, Mr..
Tumulty, to this effect:
1.-THE President and Mr.. Wilson
announce the engagement of their
youngest daughter, Eleanor Ran
dolph, to William Gibbs McAdoo."
Various rumors were in circulation
to-day as to the inception of the ro-
nance. One was that Secretary Nc
Adoo's great proves at dancing won
the hand of Miss Wilson and that he
danced his way into her heart. Sec
rotary McAdoo does the hesitation
waltz and the tango better than any
society man in Washington and Miss
Wilson and he were frequent and de-
voted partners.
The old adage that Love laughs
at age, race and creed" is borne out
in the engagement, as Secretary
McAdoo is 26 years older than Miss
Wilson, the father of six children
and the grandfather Of two. He
has been a widower for several years
and devoted to business projects.
Friends of the couple say that the
President rather deplored the differ
ence in their ages at first, but as
soon as he realized that this was an
obstacle that could not be eliminated,
but must be met, he gave his con-
sent. Secretary McAdoo is very
youthful in appearance and DISPOSE
ton, however. 1t was pointed out
today that one of his sons is older
than his intended bride and that his
daughter, Miss Mona McAdoo, is OF
the same age as Miss Wilson.
This morning Miss Wilson. accom-
panied by Secretary McAdoo's little
daughter, Sally, one of her dearest
little friends, went shopping. They
rode down town in Miss Wilson's
electric runabout and little Miss Nc
Adoo drove the car in the less
crowded streets.
An unusual situation will arise
when Miss Wilson marries the secre-
tary. At the age of "a she will be
wife, stepmother, stepgrandmother
and mother-in-law.

BULLETIN OF NEVADA
EQUAL FRANCHISE SOCIETY
c.or.. WINFIELD and Su~ffrsgists Agree

George WINFIELD and Suffrssists Agree
George Wingield is quite widely
quoted in the Nevada press as hav-
ing said in a speech at the recent
Cattleman's banquet in Reno, that
seven members of the last Legisla-
ture left the State within 80 days
after the session ended. He went
on to say that the interests OF the
State could not prosper unless those
interests were safeguarded by the
selection of men who have the per-
manent interests of the State at
heart. Mr.. Wingfeld and Nevada
Suffragists agree precisely on this
point.
Scattering of Nevada Legislators
Miss Martin, the State Suffrage
President, in her speech at the Miss
issippi Valley Suffrage Conference
in St. Louis last April, at the Nation
al Suffrage Convention at Washing
ton in December, and at the State
Suffrage Convention just held in
Reno, made a similar statement.
She added that when a special SEES
sion of the Nevada Legislature was
called, its members had to be sum-
moned from New York and New
Mexico, from Alaska, Canada, South
America and South Africa, to come
back and make more laws for Ne
vada men and women.
Nevada Has Highest FLOATING" Vote
She went on to say that this state
of affairs must necessarily exist as
long as the law-making power is in
the hands of the men only, as Nevada
has the highest floating" or tran
sient population in the United States.
A prominent socialogist estimates
that it is at least so per cent tran
sient. Men come to Nevada in large
numbers to mine, to scratch the sur
face; they are here to-day and gone
tomorrow, and they make laws for
US.
Nevada Women Are Stable Element
The population of women of Ne
vada, largely engaged in the voca-
ton of wife and mother, on the farm
and in the homes of the State, is es-
timated to be only 20 per cent tran
sient. We have right at hand in
Nevada a potential voting population
that is incorrupt and incorruptible,
that is at least 80 per cent a perma-
nent population, as compared with
the possible so per cent of perma-
nency of the male population; a pop
ulation that will protect the home,
schools, children, make this State a
better place for men, women and
children to live in if given the direct
means of protecting and conserving
our permanent interests through the
vote.
Mrs. Gilman and Woman's Vote
From the observations of the re-
suits of Woman Suffrage in western
States, Mrs. Charlotte Perkins Gil
man, the noted writer who lectured
through Nevada last year, refers to
woman's votes as that element
which is so strongly in the side of
peace, economy, order, health and
virture."
She says in a recent article that
eff the women gain the ballot in Ne
vada it will tend to develop the State
in its homes, its schools, and its set
tied agricultural development"
