A GUNPOWDER STORY. t Hast rid Ion of lion IHfflcnH It Ik to Work » |*atrinil<* IVnr Claim Thrmiitli ronitri>ss, Nkw York. July 18.—A speeinl dispatch Jfront Portland, Maine, says: A case lias .just been revived in this city which Illus trates in a striking way the difficulty ex perienced in petting the attention ol con gress, or of properly presenting even the 4>est possible claim. Captain L. \V. Tib- hetts, of this city, conimn’iilcr of the bark ■Oelina, of Portland, is interested in a •matter that has been before congress since 1872 when it was first introduced by Janies G. Blaine, t hen a member of the house. It was favorably reported in sub- -committee, about 1874, and was introduced ill the senate by Mr. Hale in 1881, and again by Mr. Frye in lSS'i. The bill, in sub- stance, is a jirayer that the secretary of the treasury be authorized to pay flOO;) to Cap tain Tibbetts as a satisfaction tor losses sus tained by him in trying to serve the gov ernment during the war. The facts con nected with the claim he row brings be fore congress make a very interesting •story, mm they are as follows: In lSfiO, tiefore the ai t of the secession, •Captain Tibbetts, being in command of l lie brig Tornado, accepted a freight of 800 Jcogs of gunpowder, consigned to New Orleans parties. Captain Tibbetts was not only roaster, but also managing owner of the’ Tornado. He encountered a gale, was --dismasted, and bore away for Ht. Thomas. While at St. Thomas making repairs, he received the information that Louisiana had passed the ordinance of secession. •“This powder will never be used against the union,” he said, and so returned to New York. Of course, his return •with what was regarded as a precious freight both to nortli and South was regarded as being an event of no small importance, and numerous references to the return of the powder were made in the New York papers. At the time when Cnptain Tibbetts reached New York in April, 1881, the government at once took the powder, and settled with the insurance company, to whom the cargo had been abandoned, and who bad privately settled with the owners. Captain Tibbetts, by this act of the government, was left in the cold, and he has remained there ever since. He had not returned his freight, but had the government let the cargo alone, ne might have kept the 800 kegs of powder on board and have defied the insurance company. Captain Tibbetts, now having waited for twenty- six years for his money, and after having, since 1872, been trying to get the govern ment to pay him, feels that 81000 is none too much to ask at the hands of congress. Disloyalty is beyond question. The pa triotism that prompted him to turn back is admitted, and now he asks that the gov ernment, having by its own act,in taking the powder, prevented his obtaining his pay, perform a simple act of justice by paying the bill. V Ilia ■il. Texas Siitin;;s ■Some people are very sensitive about .'their names, particularly if they happen to -ov a a name that is susceptible ol being twisted and distorted oul of shape by the humorist who plays on words. Such per sons, even when they were originally very good humored, become morose and crabbed. From the time they go to school until they are wheeled out to their open sepulchre, they have the same atrocious puns perpetrated on their names, and as continued hammering on one spot is apt to make a sore place sooner oi later, tin victim of his own name becomes a danger ■ ous man to tackle. An Austin gentleman tells us the follow ing good story about a man who refused to all-,i>v anybody to take improper liberties with his name, which was A. Gourd. He . belonged to a Virginia regiment, weighed about 200 pounds and would light a cross cut saw at the drop of the hat. He had bei-u badgered so much in early life about his name that it was not safe- to mention it. even respectfully, in bis presence. His .fei ow-soldiers knew and appreciated his Weakness, or rather his strength, and gov- •erened themselves * accordingly; but when a new recruit, who was given to putting on airs and whom at was desirable to take down a peg. was mustered in, Gourd was utilized for the pu'-pose. The soldiers would discuss gourds O ', general principles, and the following Conversation would lake place: •1 say, Mr. Hoc mil. how big was the big ot- -t gourd you ever saw ? ‘ ) saw one once about as big as u water melon.” -‘We have got a gourd in tiiis company the is as big around as a barrel.” ‘•Oh, shavv !

As far as we can judge the majority of ’those engaged in tin- cotton trade still cling to the idea of a continuation of lower pri, , s as strongly as they did to higher ones (say BJd> this time last year, but if it was strong the:’ it must be much stronger Jto-day. Comparing Liverpool's figures to day with tiiosi of the same time last veur, we find a detieieuey of some 150,000 bales American in stock and at sea, a shortage of 70,000 bales Egyptian equal to 110,(KK) American weights, and from this time last year to end of the season a saving of 250,- 000 bales American through a thirteen weeks'strike, so that in all we have a total deficiency of some 500,000 bales, with only some 100.000 American on the other side in excess of last year as a set off and prices Id lower. ‘ Further coni( arisons show that although this crop is one million bales lnrgirlban last, tlu exp,, 1s to England only correspond to those of last year. Therefore, under the existing circumstances of supply and de mand, we think we shall see dearer prices before vve reach our minimum stocks in November; while if speculation, manipulu- fcioi■ or bad crop accounts reach us, wo might see a rise similar to that of 187!>, 1881 and 1883, ail of which years were anal ogous to this; and the advance of Id. to 2 3:16fL, caused by commencing the season with small stocks, backed up by an expan sion of trade, and the prospects of a crop insufficient to fill the gaps made bv the previous ones, and therefore vve estimate that a crop ol six and a half to seven million bales would be required to keep prices down to the average of 5d. per pound next year. A Kim* Point In l.aii. The ideas of the colored man in the south are somewhat confused on some subjects. An old negro from Onion creek applied to an Austin lawyer to bring suit against Uncle Mose for 810, borrowed money. “You must have a witness who saw you lend him the money.” “Boss,” replied the colored agriculturist, after a minute’s pause, “ef I brings two witnesses what seed me loan him de 810, kin I make him pay me back #20 7”—Texas Siftings.

Fly one manufacturer alone 1 . t.onBofynrn an used a year for the lies of base balls. The hide and skin .vil is perfectly white, being alum tanned, i ! ootnes from Philadelphia. Out of one ii I'-e’s hide the coverings for twelve dozen buds are cut, and out of one sheepskin throe dozen. Two str.ps of the leather are |nircd for each bull, cut wide and re.ir.nl- ...g at. each end so th.it they Ht into each i.i. er when put around tile yarn ball. Each piece, for a ltugue ball, is seven inches long by two inches wide at the rounded (-ml. The pie, i s are cut with a die. Old fashioned blue Shaker yarn is used for the inside of a league bull, which is wound tightlv around a small rubber hall weighing exactly one ounce. The im proved league ball has now double cover ings of horschide, which is regarded as n great improvement. It is also stitched with ’gut. The balls are made entirely by band, and it requires no little skill to shape them perfectly round. This is done by placing them in an iron cup about tlvi' size of tnc nail anil striking it with n mallet at different stages of the winding. Men do this work. They easily make ten dozen League balls in a day and from forty to fifty dozen ordinary base balls in the same length of time. Their wages are f2 50 a day. Women sew the covering together on the ball. This requires con siderable skill and strong finger muscles. They can sew from two and a half to three dozen League balls in a day, and front four- ' teen to sixteen dozen of the cheaper grades. I They are paid by the piece, ninety cents a dozen for the others. They earn about 812 :i week. The balls are sewed with what is known as Barker’s tlax, j which comes in red, blue, orange aim 1 pink colors. The finest balls are sewed with pink. Horschide covered balls are made in fourteen different varieties. The, - , are named the Extra League, League. Pro fcssional Dead, League Junior, Amateur Dead, American Club, Atlantic, Star of the West Bed Stocking, Cock of the Walk, j Bounding Rock, Star, King of the Dia- I mond and Metropolitan Club. in the : sheepskin covered there are fifteen vari- ! eties. They are named Dollar Dead, Half- dollar Dead, Champion Bovs' League, Prac tice, Casino, Quarter Dollar, Atalanta, i Boys' Dead, Reliance, Little Star. Boss, None Such. No. 25 White, No. 211 Fancy, j The latter are covered with four different colors. j Mr. S. W. Brock, a veteran authority on | the subject, from whom the above facts I | were obtained, said: “People have the idea that the baseball business don’t amount to anything. Why, I remember j that those who started to go into it a few ! years ago were hooted at as throwing their time and money away. They were told ' that there were not enough baseballs used I in the whole country to make it pay. But ! you may be surprised to know it, yet it is I ; a fact, that one house alone in this city ! dots a business of $50,000 a year at it, mnli- 1 ing nothing else. There is a large demand j for them, especially from the west and south, and they are sent frome here to Canada, Omaha, New Orleans and Cuba iu j large quantities. It is an interesting fact that in Cuba the baseball fever ! is on the rapid increase, though j as yet they they buy only tlie i cheaper grades. In the height of the sea- I son the largest house here employs sev enty-five persons and turns out 300 dozen , halls a day. This year the manufacturers have more orders than they can fill, and I the demand is far ahead ot any previous i ; year. An interesting fact about base balls is that in the past fifteen years the only ! important change in the professional dead ‘ball is that of a double cover. Of course fifteen years ago they did not have every- j thing quite so fine about a ball, for there were no professional clubs then, and play ers were not so particular. No patent was i ever obtained on the shape of the cover ing to a base ball, though there have been a numbi r of claimants to its invention.** 1 St o n sinviiihiridp-.
