D. AND D. GAME.

Shakespeare and Murphy
started the game for w. NJ. A.
with Fucker and Downey for the
visitors. The first inning the
visitors got a man as far as
second. Wood was walked,
Winbburn famed, Wood was
caught stealing second, Shakes
peare walked and Erwin went
out on a short fly, In the
second the carnage began. The
visitors got a man on first, he
stole second and third and came
i'm when Wood missed an easy
grounder. Shakespeare got a
trifle wild and filled the bases.
The next two men went out in
order. Warren started the
inning for W. M. A. with a
two base hit over third, Bugs
was out on a bunt to third,
Ewing beat out a grounder to
and Hartzell brought in
Wentworth first run when
Warren crossed the plate. The
rest Of the game was simply a
bat feast by Wentworth. Meser-
ole and Thomas were given a
chance to perform on the mound
and Barnes as catcher. The few
scores that the visitors got
were collected in the last few
innings.

safety Of the ship itself or the
honor and dignity of the service.
1t must be remembered that if
an officer be reported for drunk
enneSs the action originates from
his shipmateS and not in the
Navy Department, and nearly all
such cases arise from convivial-
ity ashore, practically never

guard, too, against any excess
in the careful scanning by the
captain every month Of the
wine mess accounts. 1t is i'm
possible for any officer to show
want Of moderation at mess,
where often weeks pass in many
ships without any wine or beer
being drawn, without such want
Of moderation being known to
the captain.
1t is true that Immediately af-
ter the civil war, now nearly half
a century past, there was a good
deal of scandal, but much is to
be pardoned men who had just
gone through years of war and
four years of blockading duty.
1t should be remembered, too,
that the very large increase,

No Verifioation of Report.

Washington, May 29.-An official
statement Issued at the navy depart
mant late last night said:
After making every effort to verify
the reported landing of arms by the
steamers Bavaria and Ypiranga ct
Puerto Mexico, the department has
been unable to confirm the rumor, and
in view of all the circumstances, is
disposed to await a confirmation that
the landing of arms actually took
place.
The only facts known to the de-
partment in regard to the Ypiranga,'
the statement added, "are that the
steamer arrived at Puerto Mexico in
the regular course of her itinerary and
landed a considerable cargo of some
sort during the day. Admiral Badger
has been requested to obtain more
definite information"
The war and state departments also
are without definite information as to
whether the arms were landed.

in that section. We have with us in
addition especially in Latah and Bon
ner counties, a very large number Of
earnest believers in our national plat
form. Taking 1T the district over, there
is more sentiment for us in the north
than in any OTHER part of the state, and
good working organizations in the diff
ferent counties will harvest a tremend-
Gus crop of Progressive votes These
organizations we have not at the pres
emit time, except in two counties, but
we are taking the necessary steps to
remedy this condition, and 1t is the
hope of the state committee to be able
to give a great deal of time to this
question during the coming months.
1T may be seen from this analysis,
without taking into consideration the
errors of commission and omission
which both Of the old parties in this
state are certain to make in the writ
ing of their platforms and the selec-
ton of their candidates, due to the fact
that both old parties are reactionary
In their leadership, 1t is apparent that
the Progressives have most excellent
chances in Idaho this year. 1t is my
firm conviction, and the opinion of
many well-inf0rmed men who do not
belong to the Progressive party, that
Martin has by far the best chance of
being our next governor; and / think
that an efficient organization in the
state will return our full ticket with a
very comfortable plurality"
