BASE BALL.

The Kansas, 111., Club's Great VictoriesGames Yesterday. Bert Seldomridge has returned from a week's playing with the Kansas, 111., club. He pitched for the club and covered himself with glory.- The Kansas club and the Charleston club have been great rivals all season. Recently the Charlestons beat the Kansasites and the latter secured Seldomridge to pitch for them to retain their good name as ball playere. Having practiced for a few days they challenged Charleston and won by a score of 24 to 1. Their joy over the victory was unbounded and Seldomridge was a hero. They then playec PariB, 111., on. Saturday and van quished the Parisians by about the same score. After this victory nothing was too good for Seldomridge. His admirers were as many as the lovers of the national game in Kansas, 111., and they showered upon him compliments and silver dollars and half-dollars until he was burdened with coin. Oae of his admirers asked him if he would smoke and, receiving an affirm btive answer said: "I'll give you enough cigars to last you for a week." So saying the young pitcher's pockets were filled with cigars. He was offered $40

?11.,month

er to remain with the Kansas, club, but being only 16 years old he did not desire to become a professional, and will play with the Kansas club only when they need assistance.

Schultz will lea\% to-day to catch for Wabasb, where he played a part of last year. He has been playing at Effingham.

The Browns \nd the Clippers played a very exciting game, of eleven innings, at the park yesterday morning.

The features of the game were the pitching by Laudermilk, of the Browns, and Holmes, of the Clippers. Laudermilk struck out sixteen and Holmes struck out thirteen. The catchers were Shannon for the Browns and Fuller for the Clippers. Umpires, Dragman and McCarty.

THE DETROIT TBOTTING MEETING

There Are 130 Entries In the Various Classes For This Week. DETROIT, Mich., July 21.—The great trotting and pacing meeting of the Detroit driving club commences Tuesday, the 231 instant. There are 129 entries in the various classes, and as fine a lot as ever were brought together at a trotting meeting. Every state in the union is represented by one or more flyers. The track is in magnificent condition. Electric bells have been placed in the judges' stand communicating with the various stables for the purpose of calling up the horses instead of the old way of ringing the bell or tapping the drum. All the horses that are entered are here and more, and everything is in readiness for the opening day which will be called Blue Ribbon day, when the I gates will be thrown open to the public free. President Campau will ring up the horses Tuesday at 2 o'clock for the first grand event, the 2:33 trot. There are three events for the opening day—two trots and a pacing race. There are thirteen entries in the first, fourtqpn in the second and fourteen in the third. With good weather the meeting will be by all odds the greatest ever given under the auspices of the club. Johnston, the great pacer, will give exhibitions during the great meeting. The $10,000 stake race, with fifteen nominations, takes place Thursday. Prominent horsemen from all ports of the country are here. A big attendance at the meeting is assured. Guy, the great wonder, will give an exhibition one day during meeting.

The Scent of Centuries.

The Egyptians have always been recognized for their ability in the manufacture of perfumes, but due credit was never given them before a vase containing some Egyptian ointment was opened at the museum at Alnwick. The perfume it contained still had a pungent odor, although- it waa more than a thousand yeans old.

THE TERRE HAtJTE EXPttfcSS, MONDAY MORNING, JULY 22,1889.

STRAY INFORMATION.

A citizen who know* from actual experience considerable about police and fire department matters, offered the proper remedy tor the top-heavy departments of the city recently by reiterating what THE EXPRESS had urged sev eral times. The fact that there is no money in the treasury and the fact that there is muoh talk of reducing the members and salaries moved him to speak as he did. He said: "There are too many men in the office of the police department. The superih tendent of polioe is supposed to be in the office in the day time, but he is not very often. But if he were there as he should be he would not need a secretary and he could attend to the telephone himself and superintend the de partment better than now. Then if he should attend to the telephone he would need but one man in the office to accompany the wagon runs. He and the office man and the driver would be three at the office, while there are now five men. At present the superintendent, the secretary, the office man, the wagon and the driver are supposed to be about the office every da^. There would be two men less. Then at night the captain belongs in the office instead of on the street. He could su perintend the night force from the office, and attend to the telephone as well as act as night secretary. Instead of that, there are two men in the office every night, the driver and the captain making four men, when but three men are necessary." This was sensible talk, and if put in execution would result in great saving to the city—and saving money for the city is now the leading question. As to the fire department, the same gentleman recommended the reduction of the force by reducing the high salaried men. He believes strongly in commencing at the top.

Mr. John Bell, the veteran employe of the court house, said yesterday that all real estate in the city had been appraised too low and that this had been true for several years. Speaking of this matter he said: "The property here is assessed at virtually the same as it was sixteen ears ago. Additional values have teen added by way of improvements, but the appraisements of lands in the city have remained virtually the same. To prove that the appraisements are too low it is only necessary to refer to the prices at which property sells. It always

sellB

for

double and very often more than double the appraised value. When the board of equalization was in eion in 1873 property on the corner of Siqth. and Ohio streets sold for $200 per foot. At that session of ther board the raise was made. I have a good illustration here. I was looking up this matter in connection with a piece of property which had been appraised at $5,700 for several years, including 1872. In 1873 its appraised value jumped to $14,120. The latter valuation still maintains. The personal property of the same man jumped from $7,555 in 1872 to $16,010 in 1873. It might be said that these valuations have not increased since 1873. Of course they were too high then but they are too low now.

The bustle has passed almost entirely out of use in this city. This fact was more noticeable yesterday than on any previous day this season. At any rate he attention of the men was more generally attracted to the fact yesterday, and their comment seemed to favor the new style. Of course the transition could not be made suddenlv, so pretty sashes, arranged in large bows, are worn. The chief cause was said to be that the style had ohanged, but "What caused the style to change?" was often asked. In this connection it may be remarked that the wearing of the Spanish sash by dudes, which is becoming the rage in the East, is being considered here. Sev eral members of the LotuB club were speaking of the new craze in a jocular manner yesterday, and the result may be the introduction of the sash in Terre Haute.

POLITICAL 60881P.

Worcester wants the Massachusetts Republican state convention. Kentucky Republicans think they have a fighting chance to elect a state treasurer next month.

Governer Larrabee, of Iowa, will conteat for the seat of Senator Allison. He has back of him the almost solid granger vote.

The son of Senator Brown, of Georgia, is ah ardent protective tariff advocate. He is a lawyer with a large practice in Atlanta, and is of the opinion that protection is the hope of the New South.

The New Tork Republican state committee is understood to favor Syracuse as the place of holding the state convention, but there is a difference as to the time. Probably it will be the last week in September.

Officeseeking has broken out with peat virulence in the D&kotas. According to the Aberdeen (Dak.) Republican, one building in Aberdeen is known to have nineteen candidates for office under the new statehood privileges.

They are troubled already by the debt question in South Dakota. The constitution, as it now stands, provides that the indebtedness of the state shall at no time exceed $500,000, but South Dakota's share of the present territorial debt will not be lees than $650,000. .Only eleven states elect state officers this year. Kentucky will hold a general election for state treasurer on August 5 Elections in ten other states will take place on November 5. On that day Iowa will elect governor and lieutenant governor Maryland will elect comptroller and attorney general Massachusetts will eleot governor and state officers Mississippi will elect governor and state officers Nebraska will elect a supreme court judge and two regents New Jersey will elect governor and stpte officers New York will elect state officers, except governor and lieutenant governor Ohio will elect governor and state offioere Pennsylvania will elect state treasurer Virginia will elect governor and state officers.

The terms of no United Senators exlire next year, so the election of memiters of the legislature this year is of interest as bearing on national politios only in cases where members of the legislature ohosen this year hold offioe for two years. The senate elected in New York state will vote for a United States senator in 1891 to, succeed the Hon. William M. Evarte.

Pastures for Colts and Cattle. It is important that these be properly I chosen, especially for growing colts. If this is on very rich land, or watery, the I rass will be too rank for the growth of 1 ine, strong bonea and firm, enduring I muscle. Colts grown upon such will be pretty sure to be wanting in apirit, alow

lot movement and deficient in wind, muoh so that when in harness if put up to a moderately tost pace which can only be done by a repeated application of the whip—they breathe gainfully, sweat intolerably and soon tire. The I beat pasture ground for oolts is such as is well drained, or naturally rather dry, and if it abounds with scattered rooks a foot or mora in diameter, theet not objectionable^ but small stones are, for the colts in running about are liable to atrike on them to the injury of their hooEa, while they avoid the larger ones and rocks in their exercise. The grass on auch lands is sweet and tender, highly reliahed by colts, and very nutritious. Growing upon auch. pecially limited to it, the feet and lege and the bones of the whole body become extra strong, more like ivory than com mon bone grown on quite aucculent pas tore. For cattle the pasture need not be so select in quality, for they will do well on wet meadows when the water is generally a little below the surface of the soil, only occasionally overflowing for a few hours and then drying off well.
