The loss will be at least $200,000. Samuel R. Van Sant of Minnesota, was elected commander-in-cliief of the Grand Army of the Republic at the reunion held in Salt Lake City, Utah. Alonzo J. Church, former librarian of the United States senate, died at the home of his sou in Newark, N. J. He was eighty-one years old. Mr. Church was a graduate of the Univer sity cf Georgia, • and was for many years general counsel for the Chicago and Alton railway. The will of Theodore Harris, a Louisville, Ky., banker, directs that a gift of $60,000 to the Baptist Theolog ical seminary be completed, that SIOO,- 000 be given to a university in Luais ville under Baptist control, provided $900,000 more is raised within five years, and directs ihat after the pay ment of the bequests the remainder of the estate go to the Kentucky Bap tist association for a fund to aid needy churches. It is estimated that $200,- 000 will be available for this purpose. At Cincinnati, while on his way to the Chautauqua meeting at Kankakee, 111., W. J. Bryan denied a persistent report to the effect that he was about to transfer his legal residence from Nebraska to Texas. Tne steamer Jeanie, in command of Captain Samuel W. Bartlett, sailed from St. John, N. F., for Etah, on the northern frontier of Greenland, laden with supplies for Lieut. Robert E. Peary, which will enable the explorer to spend another winter is the far north if necessary to demonstrate his plans for reaching the pole. The death of an 18-year-old girl in Cincinanti, alter an operation for what was supposed to be appendicitis, has attracted general attention be cause of the unanimous opinion of the attending doctors that her death was caused by the wearing of tight cor sets and dresses in the height of the style. The victims of fashion was Miss Elsie Gasser. Ten thousand pumpkin pies were consumed at Longmont, Col., in tha observance of Longmont's annual pumpkin festival. For weeks wagons filled with pumpkins have come in from the surrounding country, which is famous for its pumpkins, and every oven in town has been running to its capacity in baking the golden discs of spicy pie. The pies were served free to everybody and excursions were run from Denvpr and other cities. William A. Rublee of Milwaukee, the retiring American consul general in Vienna, Austria, who was operat ed on last month foi stomach trouble, has left the sanitarium cured. Mr. Rublee will stay in Vienna for a few weeks so as to fully regain his strength before proceeding for Hong Kong, where he has been appointed American consul. The Southern Soft-Yarn Spinners’ association, which assembled in Ashe ville, N. C., in called meeting, gav*e out a partial statement of the results accomplished. The statement is very meagre and about the only thing indi cated by it is the fact that there is to be a material curtailment in the output of soft yarns within the next month. Washington. The three soldiers at Fort Omaha who were inoculated with the new ty phoid serum have ben pronounced im mune by the garrison doctors. The men developed the fever in a mild form in seves days. When fully re covered from this they were vacci nated again, but no typhoid symptoms appeared. Then they drank freely from water into which millions of the typhoid germs had been placed, but so far with no evil results. Secretary MacVeagh of the treas ury department said that no determi nation had been reached as to the time of the issuance or amount of the 3 per cent one-year certificates re ferred to in announcement by the treasury department recently. The is suance of the certificates will depend entirely upon the receipts of the treas ury from customs, internal revenue and miscellaneous sources. No more of the certificates will be issued than may be necessary to maintain a com fortable cash balance in the treasury. Dr. Harvey W. Wiley, chief chemist of the agricultural department and guardian of the pure food laws, has started a crusade against embalmed cucumbers and ghernins inoculated with alum. He asserts that withered and half-spoiled cucumbers are given generous hypodermics of alum and under its magic influence the once soft, soggy and generally disreputable pickle of commerce is plumped out, rejuvenated and becomes so pleasing to the eye that few' persons can resist its alluring attractiveness. Although the board of food and drug inspection has had the question of the use of alum as a preservative under consid eration for several weeks, no decis ion has yet been given out. CASTOR IA For Infants and Children. The Kind You Have Always Bought Bears the Signature of (-*uzS~/y. l/N THE WORLD OF SPORTS Batting in the Southern League ap pears to be a lost art. The foul strike rule, the spit bill, better play in the field and all around general team play have done more to offset the work of the batters in the fastest minor league i- •’' > world than anything else. Not a player in the league rs waning ... select .300 class, and only sixteen men are batting .260 or over. This is a horrible state of affairs and shows conclusively that the pitchers a,re having all the edge on the bat ters. Bill McGilvray, the Birming ham first baseman, is the real leader of the league, with an average of .290. Hart of Montgomery, with .299, and Daubert of Memphis, with .293, top him, but they have not been in the number of games that the Baron has; hence his real leadership. Noah Henline, the fast Baron, left fielder, oomes second in tho list of batsmen, with .279, and Paul Sentell of Mobile is third, with .277. Dick Bayless, tho fast Atlanta cehter fielder, leads the players in scoring runs, having 65 trips to the plate to his credit. Daley of Montgomery comes second, with 60, and Persons of Little Rock third, with 56. Henline has made the most number of hits, having bingled safe ly 117 times. The other players who have made 100 hits or more are as fololws: Weimer, 108; Molesworth. 107; McGilvray, 104; gentell, 101. Immediately following his forfeit ure of the game to Macon, Umpire Gifford was surrounded by a crowd of several hundred angry spectators at Augusta, and narrowly escaped se rious injury. Before the police could ward off the people, Gifford was struck in the fact, and hit on the head with pop bottles. A Birmingham fan picked an all- Southern League team. This is his team: Catchers, Tonneman of Nash ville and Casey of Little Rock; first baseman, Robertson of Nashville; sec ond baseman, Walter East of Nash ville; shortstop, Paul Sentell of Mo bile; third baseman. Walker of At lanta; center fielder, Molesworth of Birmingham; right fleldlcr, Cocash of Little Rock; left fielder, Dick Bay- Ices of Atlanta; for utility man, Kirkpatrick of Atlanta, and Pitchers Case cf Nashville, Scliwenck of Mem phis, Robinson of Birmingham and Fisher, Bartley aqd Atkins of Atlanta. Jack Johnson declared that he would demand a forfeit of $20,000 the day that the final articles are Signed by himself and Jeffries. “You see, I don’t believe that Jeffries means to fight,” said the champion. “He is sim ply look for more advertising at my expense, and if he wants the publici ty he is going to have to pay the price. It would be the simplest thing in the world for Jeffries to sign up to fight me within six months, post, a forfeit of $5,000, and then go on the stage and make so many times that amount.” An odd incident occurred in a semi professional baseball game in Chica go the other day. The umpire had a hole in his blouse so that it, would not hold extra balls not in play. Therefore, lie placed a ball on the ground back of the pitcher. A bats man drove a hit through the pitcher’s box, and the batted ball hit the one on the ground, with the result that one ball bounded to the shortstop and the other to the second baseman. Both fielders threw to the |rst base man almost simultoneously, and lie, seeing two balls coming, dodged out of the way. The senior champion field events of the Amateur Athletic Union were contested in the Alaska*Yukon-Pacifie stadium and some sensational per formances resulted. Ralph Rose broke the world’s record for putting the 16-pound shut, held by himself. His put was 50.26 feet. Forrest Smithson of Multomah Athletic Club equaled the world’s record for 120 yards over high hurdles, when he beat A. B. Shaw of the Chicago Ath letic Association. Very fast time was made in the five mile race, which was won by a dark horse, Harry McLean, an Indian, of Arizona. Seattle Ath letic Club won the meet by a good margin, being 16 points ahead of the San Francisco Olympics. McLaurin, Augusta’s star batter and base-runner, is one of the most graceful players in the League. Jack Johnson and James J. Jeffries have signed articles of agreement for a fight of from' 20 to 10b rounds for the heavyweight championship of the world. Five thousand dollars, to op erate as a side bet, is to be posted by each of the parties with Charles A. Comiskey. The contest is to be held before the club offering the best in ducements, the decision to be made within 60 days. The fight is to take place within six months after the se lection of the club. Whether or not Atlanta wins the pennant this year, it will certainly be handed to the team on the count of gamensss. No matter what hard luck the Crackers butt into they keep right on butting and winning. Ed Abbattiechio, the former Nash ville idol, has been putting up such a stellar game at shortstop for the Pittsburg3 during the absence of Hans Wagner that Manager Fred Clarke has decided to give the Dutchman a rest. There is no truth in the stories that Honus is seriously injured. He could be playing, but Abby was go ing so well that Clarke kept Wag ner on the bench. Theodore Breitenstein, “grand old man” of the Southern Baseball League, gives out an interview in which he says that this is his last season as a pitcher. “I do not think I have lost my grip as a twirler.” Breitenstein says, “but I believe it’s time for me to look for easier work. ( want to get into the outfield. All over the country there is a movement on foot to put a stop to gambling on the ball games. In New York there are arrests being made daily, and the same is true in bad Chicago. in Boston there was so much said that the police wanted the license of the National League Ball Club held up. At the Buffalo Veledrome, in Paris, France, Migiet. the French pace fol lower, met and defeated Bobby Wal thour, the American cyclist, in a 30- kilometre motor-paced match. The time was 24 minutes and 3 1-5 sec onds. Some one has suggested picking out the umpire baiters and bad actors iu the minor leagues and publishing a list of them, so they may be followed about the country, as many of this style of player work for several leagues during a season. The Hoffman bill, relating to Sun day baseball, which has been advers ed in the Alabama Legislature, seeks to amerd the code so that Sunday ball could be played in coast towns and cities between the hours of 3 and 6 in the afternoon, it being a move to help Mobile secure Sunday ball. The fiist offer-tor the Jeffries-John son fight came from Nick Aprea, the president of the Southern Athletic Club of Savannah. Mr. Aprea offers $30,000 for the match with a privi lege of 70 per cent of t lie gross re ceipts. Aptea says that when the auto races are combined with the big fight in March the pugilistic attrac tion would draw at least SIOO,OOO. Aprea says he has a ball park under contract which wil seal at least 30,- 000 people. The promoter is bank ing ou over 30,000 colored people attending. It is the intention of Mr. Aprea to put on a carnival of attrac tions for the auto week, and Mr. Aprea has Battling Nelson’s assur ance that he will box Bert Keyes at the time providing the Jeffries-John son match is made and secured for tho southern club. There is little like lihood that Mr, Aprea will get the match, as the limit of rounds in Geor gia is 25, and although Jeff has no doubt he can put Johnson away iu less than that, would hardly consent to fight on those conditions. The plans of promoters promise to make New Orleans a center of pugil istic interesting during the coming fall and winter. Present tentative schedules call for the carrying out of twenty bouts at the West Side Athletic Club at McDonoughvllle, La., just across the river from New Or leans. Booker T. Washington and Jack Johnson, the intelectual and physical giants of the negro race, met face to face at Quinn Chapel in Chicago, while more than 2,000 colored men cheered until they were tired. Uhe educator had come to Chicago to tell the men of his race to be clean and strong, talking from the platform, while the pugilist sat in the front row, a living example of the doctrine of health and strength that was preached. The Germans are certainly doing things in baseball. Not so many years ago the Irish had the call in the great national game , but the Dutch have come to the front with rapid strides. Take the leading bat ters in the National League, for in stance: Honus Wagner, Hoblitzel, Bescher, Zimmerman and Lobert are among the first twelve, and in that list there are but three with Irish names, Donlln, Doyle and McCormick. If two teams of Germans and Celts should meet it would be a great strug gle, and it might not come true that “it takes the Irish to beat the Dutch.” The Germans have come to the front rapidly on the diamond, and have giv en the lie to the theory that they are a slow-moving race in athletic sports. : Captain John Moren, the rich Pitts burg boat owner and father of Lew Moren, the Philadelphia pitcher, de nied a story that ho had promised his son SSOO for each game he won from Chicago in order to help out Pittsburg in the race. “A tale like that is sinful,” said Captain Moren. ‘I never promised my son anything like this. Once when he was doing well at Philadelphia I sent him a letter of congratulations and a check for $500.” An Aid to Reporters. When baseball writers run out of ,synonyms for referring to a hit, here is a list to which reference can be made; ‘He stung, slugged, lined, smote, smacked, spanked, soaked, smeared, swatted, slammed, scorched, knocked, crashed, clubbed, lammed, lunged, laced, burned, bored, flayed, punched, pelted, hammered, pounded, pummel ed, walloped, bahged, whacked, whaled, splashed, spilled, slapped, dumped, dinged, plunked, plastered, planted, pumped, plugged, swung, sunk, shot, swept, switched, pulled, percolated, brushed, landed, laid,whip ped, thrust, carved, caromed, careen ed, uncorked, produced, discharged, put, cut, emblazoned, ejected, emp tied. festooned, pickled, aimed, regis tered, heaved, roled, divulged, poured, scratched, sizzled, bounced, glanced, flicked, flipped, bumped, pealed, crowded, jammed, trundled, trickled, forced, sailed, soared, lifted, lobbed, rached, forked, popped, pushed, wing ed the pellet.”—Toledo Blade. Recognized the Umpire. “Charley, dear,” said young Mrs. Torkins, “I am learning a lot about baseball. I can pick out the umpire every time.” “Oh, you can!” “Yes. He’s the gentleman with the marcel waves on his chest.”— Wash ington Star.
