SUMMER SPORTS.

The season of oat-door diversions is npon as. The subtle atmospheric influence that propagates the base ball contagion, which, like cholera and yel low fever germs, lies torpid during the winter months, has been revived by the betray breath of spring, and the fever rages throughout the length and breadth of the land with all its old time fury and deetructiveness. The national lunacy is coming to be one of the most unfailing harbingers of spring. The modest violet may appear prematurely end be nipped and frozen by the lingering frosts of departing winter. The swelling and bursting buds are not infallible in their indications, being ofton misled ty the seductive influences of a February thaw. Even the bluebird, brightest and most cheering figure in the poet's cal «ndar, is erratic in his indications and may stay all winter or delay his coming until mmmdr is well advanced. But when the quarters in which a company of raging maniacs of the diamond field have been confined for the winter show signs of swarming, when tfce still sod den and muddy turf cegins to resound to the tread of the canvassed heel, and the scene of coming bedlamitic exhibitions begins to ring with the strange jargon of this modern midsummer madness, the reign of winter is over and spring is surely at hand. There is this solitary •alueand merit in the nation al lunacy.

Somewhat later, the advancing year brings with it a summer sport older larger in extent and in the interests in volved, and more dignified and wortny in that it displays thd generous emulation Qf the npbjest of animals as well as the petty cupidity, trickery tod mean ne«B of often the most ignoble of men Differing in this respect from so called sports and contests in which the human animal alone is concerned, the turf can never entirely lose its interest for the general and philosophic observer un til tke caustic dean's satire is realized atod hordes become endowed with human qualities, sinking the brate nobility in manlike triokory deceit and falseness The simple honesty, noble emulation and unassuming brute dignity of Dexter and Goldsmith Maid, Aristides and Ten

Broek shine through all the small human meannesses of their drivers, owners and jockeys and invest the race course with a genuine worthiness and interest renewed with each recurring summer.

Bat the greatest of these shall be the last. -the moat perfect flowers end fruK ef nature's pjoduct-nre the slowest to ripen, so this highest rfesQlt of the American mania for physical training comes latest in the season. There are premonitory Indications earlier. .From a youthful stage of the growing year, the eyes of the nation begii} to converge with an anxious interest upon the glassy poidsjta^ quiet etreafns wWch have been Chosen for the site of the various national institutions ior the propagation and encouragement of college boat racing—Yale, Harvard, Columbia and Cornell. The brown-skinned, sturdy youth who are chosen out of the whole country to figure as heroes in this midsummer battle of the wafers are watched as they pursue their daily training with more interest than the gilded youth of ancient Rome bestowed upon their pet gladiators. As July draws near, bring ing with it the annual regatta on Saratoga lake, the interest rises to an effer vetting point. All other business is ne gleoted. Commerce languishes, trade is suspended and the nation awaits the wiiitilt with bated breath It is intimated that whan President Hayes propoeedto call an extra session of Congress in one, he was assailed with an avalaache of lettera from indignant members who wanted to go to Cfce Saratoga regatta, and from distressed con stituentawho did not want their atten tion distracted frofn racing bulletinsby reports of prosy debates. It Is |i bi of5 secret political history that this was the real cause of the postponement until October. Not until thj# event is at last accomplished, tke race Won and victory tory declared, does the nation's attention reluctantly turn into ordinary ohan nels—and even then it begins to think of next year's regatta. But it is not only by Interest in the actual contest, that the popularity of college boating is attested. The country is filled with costly and extensive institutions for its encouragement and msintainance. Public enterpri&tend private Htwraiity combine in the endowment of these astitutions for the training of our yox|th in the use of the conqueriug oar ,stately palaces some of them are, supplied with every means of comfort lalary. Another interesting feature la that most or, all of them, are furnished with libraries and museums and corpg gTpaid instructors, who while away toHnreary hours of winter, when the

THAT mythical personage, the happy bridegroom, so often apostrophised in prose and verse, bat so rare and elusive in real life, has turned up in Memphis. He is a disciple of the new faith of Home Slade and Katie King and his name is C. A. Stillman. His bride is, or was, or will be—the peculiar circumstances of the case make the tense a little doubtful. Miss Alice Roberts, a young lady whom he never saw in the flesh, but to whom he was introduced by mutual friends, "on the other side," and with whose invisible as well as materialized spirit he has long been in terms of intimate communication which has finally ripened into love and matrimony. The courtship was carried on and the marriage ceremony performed through a lady medium of Memphis and the young man declares both himself and bis spirit spouse, as happy as flesh and blood could be under such circumstances. Well may Mr. Stillman declare himself happy. He is the envy of all the newly wedded, and expectant lovers of the country. For him, marriage Is stripped of its terrors. He has found the thornless rose. A married man, he has yet escaped the worst of marital miseries and preserved the best of bachelorhood's delights. No wedding trip, no running the gauntlet of his wife's critical cousins for him. No blood-chilling enormity of endless furniture bills strikes terrer to his soul and no agonising experiences of early housekeeping make his days a weary burden and his nights a frightful dream. Then look at his future, no far reaching vista of perennial milliner's and dressmakers bills stretches before him hanging like a dark shadow over tbe whole length of his life's pathway. No lifelong succession of morning fires to build stares him in the face and, reversing the' ordinary nature of the element, sends a cold chill through his veins. No innumerable caravan of voracious and exacting visiting cousins of his wife troops before his perturbed mental vision, like the grisly procession that filed before Macbeth. On the contrary, his future glitters with a lifelong succession of bachelor pleasures, lodge nights, club suppers, bachelor friends and associations, undimmed by any shadow of con jugal oversight. Only one fact essen tial te his complete happiness remains in doubt. Is his mother-in-law also in the spiritf

1 ANOTHER HORROR. At almost regular intervals the ooun try is called to the contemplation of some new disaster. At one time it the sinking or burning of a steamer, at another, a railroad smash-up, then the burning of a theatre or hotel, a reservoir of water suddenly let loose upon the sleeping inhabitants of a valley, or some other catastrophe of appalling proportions. The latest horror is of altogether a novel character. The new court house at Rockford, Illinois, a large brick and stone structure, was in course of erection, and when the walls were nearly completed and tbe key stone just being put into the central dome, the whole suddenly oollapsed and fell to the earth a

of ruins, burying the laborers

beneath, and killing, mangling and maiming a large number of them. The scene was one that for a time beggared description, and the fatailies of the killed and wounded workmen were overwhelmed with tbe calamity that had fallen upon them. Henry L. Gay, erf Chicago, was the architect of the build iug, a mau who, it seems, has a formida ble list of similar mishaps and accidents to account for. It is the general opinion that tnere has been crlbrtiual incompetency somewhere and the coroner's jury are making a- searching investigation into the cause of the disaster. It is sincerely to be hoped that they will succeed in placing the responsibility for the accident where it justly belongs, and that the guilty party or parties will be punished to the full extent of the law.

A GOOD deal has been said lately in fa vor of the^abolitionqjf the death penalty and there is no doubt but public opinion is strongly tending*in that direction, but if the statements made by a writer in the New York Nation, in regard to the practical results of the experiment in Maine are true, it will not be best to proceed too rapidly in the direction of abolishing capital punishtnent. This writer says substantially that from her admission Iij,to the TJnion In 1820 Maine hid a capital punishment law which, in 1887, was so modified as to leave the execution of the law optional with tbe governor, who rarely enforced 4t» From 1881 to 1SG4 not on execution took place in tbe State, and, as a consequence, the State became notorious for the number of its murders. In 1869 Governor Chamberlain executed a negro for murder and rape, but his successor refused to enforce the law, and In 1875 mattetfc became so bad that the legislature passed a law restoring tbe death penalty without option and in June of that year Wagner sad Gordon were hanged for murder. During the year following but one murder was committed in the State and the murderer committed suicide immediately after the commission of his crime. In 1876 capital punishment was entirely abolished and within a year no less than eleven murders have tfeen committed in the SUte. In addition to this, the writer says, there has been a startling increase of high crimes not capital, •tisties like time axe well oalcuiited strengthen the opinion that the crimi­

AN English naval engineer makes some cuiaoiiit^^ic^on^iilojlhe probable changes to be wrought in naval architecture by the introduotion of the torpedo ihto maratime warfare. The stately battleship of our fathers, with her symmetrical lines and spread of snowy canvass hss already been strangely modified by the introduction of steam, big guns and iron sheathing but the changes now declared a necessity as such as to revolutionize ship building. The introduction of efficient torpedoes changes the point of attack "ftoih abbVe to below the water linK&ndrihiPr mtist be a change in form to meet the new danger. This writer declares that no more ships of the present long, narrow, boat-like form must be built. The bulk of the ship must lie, not above or below, but around the engine* and Vitkl parts, to protect them, from submarine attack so that the battle ship. of the, future will be a short iron

nearly as broad as long, with its vital machinery in the center of its bulk. Like the wise men of Gotham, our maratime heroes of the future will go to sea in a tub—an iron tub at that.

MR. A. R. SHEPHERD, a somewhat well known citizen of Washington, lately coined some of tbe superabundant snobbery of that republican court into shining ducats, or at any rate rustling greenbacks. He rented a iurnishoJ house to Count Hogos, the Austrian minister, for a few weeks, lately, and after the glory of the Count's title departed offered the furniture, largely pots and saucepans, at auction as the effects of the Austrian minister. It sold for enormous prices, the ladies of the capital struggling in generous emulation for the honor ef adorning their kitchens with the cast-offksttlss1of a titled foreigner. When it transpired that the pots were the property of Shepherd, and were mementos of a Washington ring, instead of an European court, there was wailing in the kitchens of the capital

CA£ WAGNER'S minstrel quartette sang in the Congregational church, at Kokorno, on Sunday evening, the 6th iBSt., and of course the church was peeked by the class of good people who look with horror upon a negro minstrel in an opera house, but are ever ready to attend a circus if it has a Texas cow and bull labelled sacred cattle attached. The minstrels concluded the services by chanting the last chapter of Esclesiastee, commencing "Remember now thy Creator in tbe days of thy youth," and In tbe course of which occurs "and tbe grasshopper shall be a burden." All were pleased with the tinging, and one young lady said "that gmhopper song wss just splendid."

GEORcTk H. BOKKR, United States Minister to Russia, is reported to have said in a reoent interview, that Germany is a vast camp, stranger than ever before and better fitted for war. It Is his opinion that this prodigious military preparation is for the purpose of utterly crushing France, so that all hope of revenge by that nation will be out of the question. Germany did not dare to undertake the job while Russia was disengaged, bat now that die hi involved in the war with Turkey, Mr. Boker seems to the suspicious hour for Germany draws on apace.

Still if Tennie did olaim f100,000 it is a little strange that William M. Vanderbilt should have been frightened off by that. Law suits are looming up around him, however, more than he anticipated. Some of the gilt edging has been rubbed off of Central with the general mangling of other stocks, and altogether since his father's death the Railway King's successor's head has lain as uneasy as any other's that wears a crown. *..fj If

AN elaborate carnival in Central park New York, in the month of May, may seem the proper thing to metropolitan citizens who have been treated to every other form of expensive absurdity, but to an inland inhabitant it appaars like a piece of snobbery and anachronism to which only the volubility and facial expression of a recently imported Italian could do justice.

NEW encouragement and inspiration comes to the weary wieldcrof the journalistic plumbago from an elevated quarter. It is said that the President is possessed of an abiding awe for the news papers, gets up before daylight to read them and preserve all articles about himself, in an enormous scrap book.

THAT "time makes wondrous chang es," was illustrated last week at Chattanooga when the United States troop joined in laying the corner stone of a monument to the confederate dead, and it must have been a pleasant sight to the better class of New Orleans citizens to see, on the same day, United States soldiers marching the streets with boquets in their muskets.

Since then this department of his house has been thronged with orders, and the large corps of milliners in his employ pushed to them utmost to meet the demand for the tasty and elegant head coverings, or rather adornments, for there isn't much covering to the head in the present styles of bonnets and bats, and of course Riddle's milliner's are up to the very latest styles.
