where they will practice until March 10
when they go to Jacksonville and NEE
the last squad.
The great national pastime has com
menced in earnest in some of the base
ball camps, the members OF the New
York Giants camp being the first to get
into hard and earnest training. Nearly
all the players have arrived at Marlin
and McGraw was expected TO reach there
last evening or to-day.
"Shoeless' Joe Jackson of the Chicago
White Sox was the hardest slugger in
the major league last season. Jackson
who batted for .34l, led with total OF
293 bases, leading Speaker, the Ameri.
can league premier batsman, by 10
point margin, and Cobb, who batted for
80 points better than jackson by q
margin of 25 for total bases. jackson
led Zach Wheat, the National league pre-
mier batsman, by a 3l.point margin.
The Tufts baseball team have com
menced practice in earnest, starting yes
terday afternoon in the baseball cage
under the electric lights.
Ad Santell, the Pacific coast wrestling
wonder, has been offered guarantee OF
$500 and round trip ticket to appear
in Boston.
Jawn McGraw's little conference with
Dave Robertson seemed to bring results,
as the snappy little fielder is to report
at Marlin next week.
1t is stated that it was mainly through
the pleadings of iris Speaker that Cleve-
land magnates gave Wood his old pal,
the chance to wear the Indian Toga.
Although the salary of the Brooklyn
Robins will amount to 100000, there are
eight of the National league champions
still holding out for money.
From all accounts, Scout Gilks has
picked out another wonder for the New
York Americans behind the bat, in JUL
an Olsen, who caught semi professional
ball in Florida last season. 1t was
through Gilks that the New York club
secured Walters, the star catcher who
was found wandering in the bushes last
summer. Through Manager Donovan's
faith in Gilks' Judgment OF ball play
er, the young recruit OF the Florida
bushes will be given thorough tryout.
Olsen il six feet in height and tips the
scales at $50 pounds. His throwing arm
is like iron and he has a wonderful wal
lop in his willow.

New York. March brig. Gen. A. l..
Smith, chief OF the supplies division OF
the United States quartermaster's de-
partment, was in New York yesterday
instructing officers of the local depart
ment in new methods of purchasing sup
plies. The present plan for assembling
in few months Sl5,000000 worth OF
clothing and tents for the regular army
is designed, Gen. Smith said, to furnish
a practical lesson in industrial prepared
ness TO merchants and manufacturers all
over the country.
Distribution of orders is to be made
from depots at New York. Philadelphia,
Boston, Chicago and st. Louis in com
paratiyely small lots among the widest
possible number OF the industrial con
Germs. Previously bids for army supplies
have been received only in Washington
and it is said that only small percent
age OF those able to compete have entered
the market for army business.
In working out the plan it is expected
that concerns able to supply the neces-
sary material will come into close con-
tact with army requirements and meth
DDS Of doing business, and that direct
dealing between divisional depots and
sources of supply win be established
Bids for present orders will be opened
March 5.

FOUR-FOLD BENEFIT
From Two Grand Medicines-Hood's Sar'
saparilla, Peptiron Pills

You know that physicians often give
two prescriptions, perhaps more, Tor
medicines to be taken together, or alter
nately, or at different times
One reason may be that the medicines
are "incompatible"--d do not agree when
closely mixed in taking--or that desired
results cannot be secured by one medi-
cine alone.
The most successful combination med
icine treatment that we know of is in
Hoods Sarsaparilla and Peptiron Pills.
The former expels impurities from the
blood, creates an appetite and promotes
digestion and natural action of the kid
news and liver, while Peptiron Pills give
the powerful tonic-they literally put
iron into your blood''-that Just balances
the requirement of perfect health.
Patients taking both report the benefit
is four fold prompt, positive and per-
manent. Sold by all druggists.--Adv.

"Lie down forward!' shouted DOdd,
through his trumpet. 'Bayliss, give
him q shot,"
The carronade was fred with a
tremendous report, but no visible et-
feet. The pirate crept nearer, steer
ing in and out like q snake to avoid
the carronades, and firing those two
heavy guns alternately into the devot-
ed ship. He hulled the Agra now
nearly every shot.
The two available carrOnades replied
noisily, and jumped as usual; they
sent one 32-pound shot clean through
the schooner's deck and side; but
that was literally all they did worth
speaking Of.
Course them!" cried Dodd; 'load
them with grape! Aley are not to be
trusted with ball. And all my IT,
Founders dumb! The coward won't
come alongside and give them a
| chance"
At the next discharge the pirate
Clipped the mizzen mast, and knocked
q sailor into dead pieces on the fore
| castle. Dodd put his helm down ere
the smoke cleared, and got three
carronades to bear, heavily laden with
grape. Several pirates fell, dead or
wounded, on the crowded deck, and
some holes appeared in the foresail !;
this one interchange was quite in favor
Of the ship.
But the lessons made the enemy
more cautious; he crept nearer, but
steered so adroitly, now right astern,
now on the quarter, that the ship
could seldom bring more than one car
ronade to bear, while he raked her
fore and aft with grape and ball.
In this alarming situation, Dodd
kept as many Of the men below as
possible; but for all he could do four
were killed and seven wounded.
Fullalove's word came too true; it
was the swordfish and the whale.
At last, when the ship was cloven
with shot, and peppered with grape,
the channel opened; in five minutes
more he could put her dead before the
wind.
No. The pirate, on whose side luck
had been from the first, got half
broadside to bear at long musket shot,
killed midshipman by Dodd's side,
cut away two of the Agra's mizzen
shrouds, wounded the gaff, and cut
the lib away down fell that powerful
sail into the water and dragged across
the ships forefoot, stopping her way
to the open sea she painted for; the
9hnorn6
stoutly, as British tars do in any great
disaster; the pirates yelled with fero-
cious triumph, like the devils they
looked.
But most human events, even calam-
tiles, have two sides. The Agra being
brought almost to standstill, the
pirate forged ahead against his will,
and the combat took a new and ter
rible form. The elephant gun popped,
and the rifle cracked, in the Agra's
mizzen top, and the man at the pirates
helm jumped into the air and fell
dead; both theorists claimed him.
Then the three carronades peppered
him hotly, and he hurled an iron
shower back with fatal effect. Then
at last the long 1S-pounders on the
gun deck got word in. The old Niler
was not the man to miss a vessel
alongside in quiet sea; he sent two
round shots clean through him, the
third splintered his buiwark and swept
across his deck.
"His masts! fire at his masts"
roared Dodd to Monk, through his
trumpet; he then got the jib clear
