SPORTING RESUME.

(By B. B. Bug.)

Saturday’s Results. National League. Chicago 6 . New York 5 11 innings. Philadelphia 2 Pittsburg 0 St Louis 3 Boston 2 Cincinnati 4 Brooklyn 3 American League. Chicago 5 Philadelphia 4 New York 16-7 St. Louis 9-3 Boston 6 Detroit 4 Washington 4 Cleveland 1 The Monon*ball team defeated Battle Ground last Sunday by a score of 1 to 0. The game was played at Battle Ground and it was a pitcher’s battle from start to finish. Monon secured its only score on a single by McDonald, who went to third on a scratch hit and scored on a wild pitch. About five hundred saw the game. Lacey, of the St. Paul league team, pitched for Monon and never permitted a man to get past second. Hand did the twirling for Battle Ground and was just about as effi-

cient, finally losing his game on his own error. —Francesville Tribune. . The final game of the Cub-Giaifr series went to the Chicagoans by a 6 to 5 count after 11 innings of desperate fighting. Mathewson opposed Lurid Lew Richie on the slab. Honors were about even in the hitting line, the Cubs getting the most extra base drives. The New Yorkers scored first in the third inning when they pounded Lew rather hard and scored three runs. They came back with one more in the fourth and, with the score 4 to 0 against them, the Cubs suddenly came to life and hammered-Mathew-son and coupled with the errors of Fletcher —and Becker counted them three runs. In the seventh the Cubs tied it up on Saier’s single, Ever’s double and Archer’s single. Both teams scored once in the ninth and the tenth passed scoreless. The Giants went out easily in their 11th and in the Cub half the three Cubs, Saier, Evers and Archer repeated their trick of the 7th inning and the Windy City lads had taken the final and deciding game of the series. The Cubs are but 5 games behind and have the better of the schedule from now on. The work of Red Murray of the Giants, Saier, Archer, Richie, and John Evers of the 9ubs, were the features of the series. Konetchy, the big first baseman of the Cards, is pounding the leather at a 341 gait and is playing the best ball of his major league career. The Yanks and Browns are scrapping t© see who gets the cellar position and the Browns went into the lead by dropping both games of tlje double header by 10 to 9 and 7 to 3. Caldewlh held the Browns to two scratch hits in the first game, while Napier? a recruit, was pounded hard by the New Yorkers. In the second game the Browns took an early lead but the Yanks came back with 9 runs in the 7th and followed it up with 4 more in the Bth. The White Sox trounced the Athletics, putting a stop to the winning streak of the Macks. With men on third and second in the "ninth Walsh whiffed Baker and Mclnniss, both three hundred hitters, and let Strunk roll to Weaver. The defeat sent the Athletics back into third place as Washington was defeating Cleveland. Lew Richie was slipped SIOO by Manager Chance after the game for the great work he did in the series. Lew said it was a shame to take the money as it was as easy as beating the Bostons. The Phillies again gave the. Pirates a trimming 2 to 0. But six hits were made off the offerings of.Camnitx, allowing 4, and Moore 2. The contest lasted but one hour and twenty-five minutes Boston trimmed, the Tigers by scoring 5 runs in the Bth. Cobb and Speaker, the two leading American league hitters, failed to connect.

ANIMALS’ EYES ARE MIRRORS

Reflected Light le What Causes Them Glow In Dark, Not Occult Agencies. It lo well known that the eyes of animals glow like coals in the dark. The reason for this is commonly believed to be because there Is phosphorescent matter fifths eyeballs. There are many, too, who attribute it to some weird occult agencies. But ft is all perfectly natural The light does not come directly from the eyes of the animals, but indirectly. That is, it is a reflected light. Let an animal come out of the forest and approach a camp fire. His byes glow like two balls of fire. This is because his eyes are mirrors and reflect the light while the rest of him Is in darkness, making the spectacle all the more wonderful If you go in a dark room with a light the animal will look directly at the light Then his eyes will reflect that light The case is somewhat similar to the way the moon borrows light. The moon Itself is an opaque body without any Inherent luminosity, and consequently it has no power of emitting light of its own. But when the shafts of light from the sun fall upon the surface of the moon they are reflected back, and it is the sun’s light that brightens up the surface of our celestial nightly attendant and makes it visible to us.

WHALE BOAT CATCHES SHARK

Marine Monster, Weighing Approxl* mately Eight Tone, Harpooned Off Vancouver Coast. While scouring the ocean for whales one of the little steamers working from the K yuquot station landed a thirty foot shark. The "wolf of the sea” is claimed to be one of the largest ever seen in northern waters and weighed approximately eight tons. The whaling steamer had been searching vainly for whales for several days and the lookout had grown tired of scanning the surface of the ocean. He was suddenly aroused to action by observing the dorsal fin of a monster shark cutting the water about 200 yards on the port bow. As the big sharks yield considerable oil, the ship’s officers decided to try for this one in view of the lack of whales. Running to within thirty yards of the shark with the boat, the gunner fired the harpoon from the gun and struck the monster at the first shot After a terrific fight to hold the struggling sea animal it was hauled aboard and cut up, the steamer resuming her search for the larger mammals. Officers of the Tees declare that the shark was the largest they had ever seen. It was of the species, common to the Pacific coast, but not quite so far north. —Vancouver Sun.

Old Charcoal Burner.

The charcoal burner may still be found, and that within 30 miles of London. This writer knows a charcoal burner who has carried on his ancient trade for 40 years in Surrey and Sussex. You come suddenly upon the piled dome of fine earth on hearth or in woodland and near it is his neatly constructed hut of withes, fem and heather, with its rough corner posts and little door. There he lives during the whole period of the calcining process, keeping a sharp lookout to see that inquisitive passersby do not push an injuring stick into the mound which might result in a sudden burst of flame and the ruin of that particular lot of wood. This ma nis his own master; he knows his markets and ’he makes a decent living. A curious, solitary life —but he knows all about the birds. —London Chronicle.

Work Was Remedial.

The following report from the rec* ords of a probation officer is significant: "M. Z., of German descent, graduated from grammar school. Parents neat, respectable, and thrifty. Germana Girl wanted to go to work. Parents would not allow this, as they did not need her wages and thought she should stay at home and help about the house. Girl became unmanageable, and stayed out several nights, whereupon her parents brought her into court as incorrigible. The probation officer urged that the girl be allowed to go to' work. The parents agreed, the girl was placed on probation, and found work for herself in a department store. From that time she gave no trouble."

The Marseillaise.

There is a certain irony in the fact that the town which produced the “Marseillaise” is now German territory. The song dates from April 24, 1791, when Rouget de Lisle, then quartered at Strasburg as captain of engineers, composed it in response to the mayor of Strasburg's reguest for a patriotic song. * At Strasburg the song was printed under the title, "Chanty de Guerre pour I’Armee du Rhine." It owes Its present title to the volunteers from Marseilles, who sang it as they marched on Paris.

NATIONAL TRIBUNE STILL FAVORS PRESIDENT TAFT.

Soldiers’ Paper Praises Executive for Consistent Friendship to Civil War Veterans. The National Tribune, published at Washington, has the following to say concerning President Taft’s part in the recent pension legislation: “It is impossible to give President Taft too much credit for approving the pension bill. Never before in the history of pension legislation were such extraordinary efforts made to prevent the passage and approval of the bill. Never before was there such well-organized opposition, embracing such powerful persons and influences. Never before had there“beeff an organized campaign waged for years against any further liberation of pension expenditures. The money power was never so much in evidence as in the organization and venom of the anti-pension campaign. The money power viewed with the utmost alarm the diversion of from $20,000,000 to $30,000,000 a year from its purpose toward a great act of noatianal justice. In its fight it showed a solidarity and command of resource such as has never before been exhibited in any congressional contest. “In the first place, substantially all the southern senators and representatives were solidly arrayed against the bill. “Next, every great metropolitan paper, without exception, the leading journals of all the great cities and all the big magazines were in a steady fire against any pension bill. Hired muekrakers industriously defamed every pensioner on the roll and assailed the character of the manhood of the soldiers who put down the rebellion.

“Next, influential senators and representatives of both parties were suborned to attack the pension bill. Thurs the strongest political, financier and editorial influence was constantly brought to bear upon the president to get him to withhold his signature. For more than a year before the' bill was actually passed- the newspapers, magazines and public speakers were greatly injuring the president’s popularity by their constant assertion that he was hostile to any pension bill, and his veto would be certain. “President Taft has all through his official life shown a most admirable talent for rising above the clamor of selfish interests and demogogic appeals to do that which he has conceived to be right. Vastly more of an upright judge than an artful politician, he has acted according to his convictions, with absolute disregard to real and manufactured clamor. He never showed to better advantage in this respect than in resisting this immense pressure to sign the bill which commended itself to him as recognizing a righteous debt of the nation to those who had saved its existence. His approval will be to his high and lasting credit when, all pension-hat-ers are forgotten. “Every veteran and relative of a veteran owes President Taft a debt of gratitude for his approval of this bill. They should —understand, how much it cost him to withstand the pressure and sign the bill. It is conclusive testimony that his heart is true to the men who saved the union, and that all the injurious allegations set afloat to the contrary are slanders and intended for his injury.”

More than one attempt has been made to improve the conditions existing under republican rule, and at times succeeded in overthrowing republican supremacy, but the condition of the people lacked a great deal of being improved. In tlyis state, for example, the county unit prevailed, and the great majority of the people favored it, but for some inconceivable reason the people were not satisfied and they overthrew the party that gave the state this beneficial law. The first thing under the new administration was the repeal of this law in behalf of the liquor interests. Instead of getting better under a change of administration they got infinitely worse. So it was in the nation when the people hoped to improve upon republican conditions by substituting another party. So it has been iiivariably when the people have sought to improve upon the republican party by substituting another. Experience . ought to teach us something.— Lebanon Patriot. “So you took your wife to the baseball game?” "Yes,” replied Mr. Meekton. “Did she enjoy It?” “Only part of it She thought they wasted a great deal of time running around the lot but she» thought the arguments with the umpire were quite interesting.”—Washington Star. ' A negro named Julius Smith took a drug to give him courage and fell asleep while attempting to rob the home of W. W. Rockhill, at Ft. Wayne. He was betrayed by his snoring. Mr. Rockhill was awakened by the noise and found the negro asleep on the floor just outside his bedroom door.
