Iteateo by the Jioaton Club. Epeclal to the JndlaoaDoiia Journal. Boston, Mass., Sept. 1. It was the same old story, with variations, and the Bostons, chagrined by three successive defeats by the Detroits, proceeded to get even on the Hoosiers. It was Boyle's torn to pitch, but he was not well, and Shreve went in. He wa3 very wild in the first inning, and three runs resulted, the only hit being a three-baser by Bornung. After that he was hit pretty freely, but kept Kelly's raeu from bunching their hits. Somebody must have an off-day in every game, and it was Shomberg's turn to-day. He distinguished himself by dropping two balls, that would have put men out, and making two awful throws. His errors let in four runs. It is not necessary to go into particulars. The Hoosiers played in bad luck aside from this. Once, with men on second and third.Brown bit, a hard line hit away out in the right field, and Wiee caught it on the jump with his left hand. Under similar circum stances Denny made a similar hit in center field. whicn Johnson pulled down after jumping about seven feet high. Keery and Hackett each made fine hits, and Dassett played second in fine style. Sbomterg probably had more chances than any other man has had in a nine-inning game this season. He put out nineteen men and missed five chances. The Hoosiers got their runs today by fine base-running by Seery and Brown, and not by hard hitting. Boyle will go in to pitch to morrow, probably against Madden. The core to-day was: BOSTON. 1 INDIANAPOLIS. B IB PO RlBPOA Kelly, c... ' Kash, 3... Wis?, r ... Sutton, a...

DETROIT, 5; NEW YORK, 1. New York, Sept, 1. Although the playing of the New Yorks to day was faultless, with the . exception of II ainoy, the new third baseman, ( they were defeated by the Detroits. Rainey, it can almost bo said, lost the game. Four errors he made, and the orjy ones made by the team. Keefe seemed to be a little off, and was hit quite freely. The feature of the game was the playing of Richardson and Ward, of the New York elub. Twice they doubled on the Detroits, but Rainey's miserable plays spoiled the entire game. Getzein pitched a ereat game, although wild at first, and he was ably supported by Bennett. In the seventh, Brouthers and Rowe got on bases by errors of Rainey. Thompson went to the bat cd drove the ball far out to center field, bringing home Brouthers, Rowo and himself. Attendance, 8,700. Score: NIW TORK. I DETROIT. U IB PO A E R lit PO A K Oore, m.....

CHICAGO, 4; PHILADELPHIA, 3. Philadelphia, Sept. 1. A fumble by McLaughlin lost to-day's game for the Philadelphias. The calamity occurred in the eighth inning. Two men were out, aud Darling and Ryan were on third and second, respectively. Anson bit a ball directly to McLaughlin, who first failed to hold It on the bounce, and then fumbled it three or four times, permitting both Ryan and Darling to score, and enabling Anson to reach first. The winning run in the 'ninth was made on Burns's double and Daly's hit to left, which would have netted three bases if necessary. Score: PHILADELPHIA.

In the first inning, through Gilmore's wild pitching and a few timely hits, the visitors seored five runs, which virtually sottled the contest Donnrlly played a magnificent game at third. Farroll made some Brilliant tops, but he also made the only errors of the home team. At critical points Galvin proved himself too much for the home team, who sacrificed several ruus through their inability to hit safely. Coleman was struck by a pitched ball in the fifth Inning, and was so seriously injured that he retired from the game in favor of Fields. Ecore: WASHINGTON.

Various other people and corporations are joined as defendants. Jeaks'a DreamJanks had a queer dream the other night. He thought he saw a prize-fighters' ring, and in the middle of it stood a doughty little champiou.who met and deliberately knocked over, one by one, a score or more of big. burly-looking fellows, as they advanced to the attack. Giants as they were in size, the valiant pigmy proved more than a match for them. It was all so funny that Jenks woke up lauehing. He accounts for the dream by the fact that he had just come to the conclusion, after tryinsr nearly every big, drastic Till n the market, that Pierce's tiuy Purgative Pellets easily "knock out'' and beat all the rest hollow!

Interesting? and Carious Features of His Home at Montlcello. Frank Stockton, in September Century. I think it is not generally known with what pleasure and zeal Jefferson brought his mind to bear, not only upon the development of his somewhat grand ideas in regar 1 to a home, but upon the most minute and pec'iar contrivances for convenience aud adornment. He drew plans and made estimates for nearly everything that was built or constructed on his place. He cal culated the number of bricks to be used in every part of his buildings, and his family now possess elaborately-drawn plans of such bits of household furnishing as 'curtain valences' and the Hue. Many of his ideas in regard to building and furnishing he brought with him from France; but more of them had their origin in his brain. There were no bedsteads in his bouse, but in every chamber there wa3 an alcove in the wall in which a wooden framework was built which supported the bed. His own eleepiug-arrange-ments during the lifetime of his wife were of a very peculiar nature; in the partition between two cnambers was an archway, and in this arch way was the double bed; one chamber was Mr. Jefferson'9 room, and the other was his wife's dressing-room; when he arose in the morning bo got out of bed into his own room, and Mrs.. Jefferson got out into her room. After hi3 wife's death bei room became bis study, arid tho parti tion wall between it and the library being taken down, the whole was thrown into the present large apartment. Over the archway in which the bed is placed is a lone closet reached by a step-ladder placed in another closet at the foot of the bed. In this were stored in summer the winter clothes of the family, and in winter their summer habilameuts. At the other side of the arch there is a small door, so that persons going from one room to the other had no need to clamber over the bed. "In the smaller chamber, whan it became his study, stood Mr. Jefferson's writing-chair, which was made to suit his peculiar needs; tne chair itself was high-baoked, well-rounded and cush ioned, and in front of it extended a cushioned platform, on which Mr. Jefferson found it very pleasant to stretch his legs, being sometimes troubled with swellings of the smaller veins of these limbs. The writing-table was so made that it could be drawn up over this platform, legs and all, and pushed down when not in use. The too of this table turned on a pivot; on one side of it were his writing materials, and on the other was tne little apparatus bv which ne made copies of all his letters. Bv his side was another revolving table.' on which his bootjs of reference lay, or were held open at proper angles. Near him also stood a pair of large globes: and, if he wished to study anything outside of this world, he had in the room two long teles copes mounted on brass tripods. Convenient, also were his violins, one a Cremona, and the other the bass-viol saved from the Shadwell fire. Besides the book-shelves and the somewhat simple furniture of the library, there were a number of oddly contrived little closets, in which were stored his multitudinous manu scripts. There is a writing-table now in the possession of the family, which was frequently used by Mr. Jefferson, and which is ingeniously contrived. Two of its four legs are hollow, and in these run rods resting upon springs by which the table can be easily elevated, the other two lees being also extensi ble? but in a different way. v hen Mr. Jefferson was tired of writing in a sitting position, ha could stand up and raise this table to the desired height. When he wished to use it as a readingstand, the top could be inclined at any angle, and a strip of brass was brought into use to keep the books and papers from sliding off. "Opening from the library was a large room inclosed with glass, which was intended for a conservatory, but was used by Mr. Jefferson as bis work-room. There he had a work-bench with all sorts of carpenter's tools, with which he constructed a great many of the small conveniences he invented." How the Habeas Corpus Act Passed. London Daily News. 1 he new volume of the reports of "The His torical Manuscripts Commission," just issued, confirms in a curious way an odd story told by Bishop Burnett in his "History of His Own Time" regarding the passing of the habeas corpus act. Burnett's words are: "It was carried by an odd artifice in the House of Lords. Lord Grey and Lord Norris were named to be the tellers. Lord Norris, being a man subject to vapors, was not at all times attentive to what he was doing. So, a very fat lord coming in. Lord Grey counted him for ten, as a jest at first; but, syeing Lord Norris had not observed it,
he went on with his misreckoning. So it was reported to the House and declared that they who were for the bill were a majority, though indeed it went on the other side; and by this means the bill passed." The manuscript minute

A FLY CORRESPONDENT. A Good Story Told About a Newspaper Traveling Man. Atlanta Journal. Col. Ed Calloway tells a good stpry on Mr. Gentry, the veteran newspaper traveling man. Some years ago Gentry, who was at that time representing the Savannah Morning News, came to Camilla at a time when Judge Peter Strozier was holdine court. He and another man were smoking as they talked at the court house door, and the probability is that the cigars were not of the best, as his honor caught an un pleasant whiff of tobacco smoke, and ordered the smokers into court. Gentry heard the order, and quietly extinguished his cigar. The other man still puffed away, and the sheriff brought him up before the Judse, who lectured him sharply and fined him $l. "Mr. Sheriff," said his Honor, "that other man in the door was 6moking, too; bring him into court." Gentry was brought in. and the Court asked him what ho was doing there, anyway. "May it. please the court." said Gentry, with great dignity, "I am here representing an institution which has a great and benificent influence upon the lives and characters of a large number of people throughout this section. It not only disseminates the truth on a great many questions, but performs the office of a moral educator of the people. Not only this, but it very largely increases the prosperity of this section, in that it furnishes information upon which those who sell cotton, naval stores, and other important commodities may safely act in marketing their products. This institution is a powerful auxiliary to the courts in maintaining the peace, good order, and dignity of the state and the majesty of the law. I refer to the Savannah Morning News, which I now represent, both in the daily and weekly editions. The daily is SIO per annum and weekly if l. I would be pleased to take your honor's subscription to either edition, and " "Mr. Sheriff, take this man out of court, he's crazy!" roared the judge. Gentry retreated in good order and established himself in the court-yard, where he did a big business in subscriptions. THE II A HA EDITOR. A Sample Column Taken from a Down-East Sheet. Tid-Dits. He is generally to be found In villages and rural localities in which people will stand more than they will in cities. Nerve is his chief editorial gift, and it takes a good deal of it for a man to spring such a column as this on his sub scribers: Hot! Hotter. Ha! Hottest! Ha. ha! How's this for heat? Ila, ha!

All our tony young bloods go there for their striped socks and biied shirts; but we won't give the boys away. Ha, ba! The Credit of Lincoln's Nomination. Klolay nnd Hay, in epteml6r Centurv. The credit of the nomination is claimed by many men, and by several delegations, but every such claim is wholy fictitious. Lincoln was choaen not by personal mtrigne, but through political nbcessity. The Republican party was a purely defensive organization; the South had created the crisis which the new party was compelled to overcome. The ascendency of the free States.not the personal fortunes of Seward, hung in the balance. Political victory at the ballotbox or a vital transformation of the institutions of government was the immediate alternative before the free States. "Victory could only be secured by held of the electoral votes of New Jersey, Pennsylvania, Indiana, and Illinois. It was therefore a simple problem: What candidate could carry tnese States? None could answer this question so well as their own delegates, and these, when interrogated, still further reduced the problem by the. reply that whoever else could, Seward certainly could not. These four States lay on the border land next to the South and to slavery. Institutions inevitably mold public sentiment, and a certain tenderness toward the 'property' of neighbors and friends infected their people. They shrunk from the reproach of being 'abolitionized.' They would vote for a conservative Republican; but Seward and radicalism and 'higher law' would bring them inevitable defeat. "Who. then, could carry those doubtful and pivotal States? The second branch of the question also found s ready answer. The contest in these States would not be against a Territorial slave code, but against 'popular sovereignty;' not with Buchanan's candidates, but with Douglas; and for Douglas there was only a single antagonist, tried and true Abraham Lincoln. Such, we -may reasonably infer, was the substance of the discussion and argument which ran through the caucus rooms of the delegates day and night during the lGth and I7th of May. A Complete Snccess.

Settling the Tariff Problem. Pucfc. Miss Lightweight Now, Mr, Tongly, I have a chance that I have lone been waiting for. I just want you to tell me all about that delicious tariff I read of in the pap-rs. What is it? do tell me! Congressman Tongly Indeed, yon must excuse me, Miss Lightweight. It ia too deep a subject to enter into Miss Lightweight (pouting) Oh, of course, you think I haven't got intellect enough to Mr. Tongly No, no 1 assure you Miss Lightweight Then go on and explain. Mr. Tongly (desperately) Well, you see. Borne people want to allow fereign goods to be imported free of dnty, or with a small tax, so that we could buy them at a lower cost Miss Lightweight Why, that would be just the thing! How could anybody object to it? Mr. Tongly On the other hand, if the tariff is reduced or abolished, some people calculate that our manufacturers, in order to compete with the foreigners, would have to reduce wages. Miss Lightweight That would never do! The poor workingmen could not stand it. What can be done? On, yes, I see! I understand it all now: You just get Congress to arrange things so that everything will be cheaper, and the working men will get higher wages, too. How much better that would be for everyone! Mr. Tongly (solemnly) I shall advocate your idea night and day during the next session. Now let us go put on the veranda and view the moonlight. Two Men of One Mind. Chicago Journal.
