NORTH STREET
Before one of the greatest crowds that ever saw a base ball game at
New York, yesterday, the Cubs ral
lied and defeated the Giants 4 to 0
with Jack Pfeister doing the hurling
It was a great game and a great
crowd. The management closed the gates with 5,000 persona clamoring to
spend their money. A storm broke in the sixth inning and the game was stopped In the seventh and the Becond session of the double header called
off.
Following his exhibition of the day before, Walsh was back in the box for
the Sox and defeated the Highlanders again yesterday. He is one of the
best twirlers in the game and with out him, where would the Sox be?
Rube Marquard was in good form
yesterday and Indianapolis won from
St. Paul by a close score. Fans In the
flour town claim their team will improve under the direction of Kelley. Clarence Owens, the American As
sociation umpire has been offered a position In either of the major lea
gues. He is expected to go to the National.
A total of twenty-nine hits was
made in the Toledo-Kansas City game yesterday. Hickman was there for a couple.
Louisville certainly is going a lick
In the direction of the championship ladder. Remember the race of four
years ago between Louisville and Indianapolis for the bunting?
Tuckey made h's debut with the
Boston Nationals yesterday and shut
out St. Louis. He is a promising south side fllnger.
Donovan was not quite strong
enough yesterday and Washington
gave an exhibition of what the team is capable of doing when playine ud to
its standard. Detroit outhit the Nationals but could not win. Washington has a good team but plays good ball' very seldom. The pitchers are the strongest in the league.
Pittsburg continues at its mprrv
clip and will have to be watched in rounding the last turn.

Philadelphia and Cleveland split ev

knocked out of the box. As the result of Washington defeat

vllle Tiger rooter must go without a
shave for six weeks. He lost a wag er to this effect.
What do you think of Boston? Three straight from the hard hitting
St. Louis American aspirants for the
championship.
After losing the first to Dayton 8

Sixty-five horses are entered for the races which began at New Castle this

Saratoga's historic travers stake was won yesterday by Dorante. a For-

ft;yal Marriages. The English royal marriage act it
one of the time honored absurdities which survive In spite of common tense and enlightened public opinion. By it the matrimonial choice of the English princes is Dracticallv rest-riot
ed to the swarms of "the German
hive, and the proverbially handsome English women are forbidden. The legal prohibition was enacted in 1772 at the persistent command of George HI, he "being thereunto incited," first, by the marriage in 1776 of his brother, the Duke of Gloster, to the Countess Waldegrave (Maria Walpole), and, second, by the taking to wife by a young brother, the Duke of Cumberland, in 1771. of the widow of Colonel Christopher Horton. The first provision of the act forbids to the descendants of George II. matrimony without the consent of the crown under the great seal, necessary exception being made to cover the marriages of princesses abroad. The second provision has been the especial mark of raillery. It enables marriage by one above the age of twenty-five against the will of the crown under certain conditions. Westminster Gazette.
China, a Collection of Nations. China is not a nation in the sense In which we ordinarily use the word. If we picture to ourselves the countries of Europe, with their different languages and different customs, drawn together into a loose confederation under the government of a conquering race, we shall have some small conception of what this Chinese "nation" really is. The peoples of these different European countries are all Caucasians. The different peoples of China are all Mongolians. These Chinese peoples speak eighteen or twenty distinct languages, each divided into almost innumerable dialects and subdialects. They are governed by Manchu. or Tartar, conquerors who spring from a different stock, wear different costumes and speak among themselves a language wholly different from any of the eighteen or twenty native, tongues.

He will take it to his home for funeral and burial. The deceased was an Odd
Fellow and member of the Maccabees. Webster became 111 soon after arriving in this city. He wandered about the station in a semi-distracted manner and attracted considerable attention by his actions. He became too ill to arise from his seat and attaches at the station summoned the ambulance and he was taken to the hospital for treatment. Physicians give uremic poisoning as the cause of death.
WADE IMPROVING. Injured Man Will Soon Be in Custody . Of Police. After his precipitation from the C, C. & L. railroad bridge to the rocks beneath, Monday afternoon, and his subsequent removal to the hospital, William Wade, colored. Is reported as improving rapidly. He will leave the hospital to fall into the hands of the police upon an old charge.
The Pipefish. The pipefish take care of their young in a manner that Is entirely peculiar. The newly laid eggs are taken care of by the male, which has a sort of fold on each side of Its body. Beneath the "flaps' he keeps the eggs until the youag are hatched and sufficiently grown to take care of themselves. While in the "flap" they are fed by the mother, upon whom falls the duty of foraging around for food.
