experience of Mr. F. Eaton, the
winner of The Youth's Companion
prize of for the best story for
girls in the recent competition, is a
illustration of the successes that
are occasionally won at a bound by
wholly unknown writers of fiction. His
prize story, Out the
which appeared in the me-
day issue of The Companion,
was second short story he ever
wrote and the first one that he ever
submitted to a publisher. Mr. Eaton
is years of age, married and a law-
by vocation. He enjoys a
practice at N. Y., the place
of his birth, and is now serving his
seventh term as city attorney.
In his fifteenth year Mr. Eaton re-
a severe gunshot while
hunting pigeons, which deprived him
of the end of one finger and filled an
arm with bird shot. At the age of
thirds that distance. After the nine
has begun to work in the field it is not
advisable for the catcher to throw to
second anything like the number of
times the majority of amateurs attempt
daily. Only after the nine has been
Ont of doors for two or three weeks is
so much of the full distance throwing
safe for any catcher who wishes to have
his arm in condition.
The position of the feet in throwing
is all important. If he be a strong man
of moderate weight he can and should
throw without the position of
the feet. To this object his gymnasium
practice should be devoted. Standing
steadily upon his feet in the exact
assumed at the moment of catch-
the ball, he should, with a slight
swing at the hips, able to send the
ball down. Throwing in a cage
a low ceiling is the best thing possible
for him, as it forces him to throw hard
and on a line.
A point of catcher's practice, which
I does not enter into the work of the
I pitcher, is that of toughening the
hands. Rowing on the machines, climb-
the rope, swinging on the flying
j rings and handball, if there are any
courts for that excellent game, will all
tend toward this end. He should con-
sider, however, that it is not merely
I toughening the skin of the hands that
is desirable, but also hardening the
I flesh so that it is not easily bruised. For
i this reason he should with-
out gloves regularly every day.
At the outset he should receive no
; swift balls, and should stop at the first
feeling of anything beyond a moderate
tingling of the palms. His hands should
i receive their full preparatory hardening
i before he goes out into the field, for
i ordinary carefulness that he
, should do no catching behind bat
after the season commences except with
hands thoroughly protected by well
padded gloves. What is called a stone
bruise is one of the tenderest and moat
lasting of carelessness in this
respect. In his gymnasium practice he
should wear the mask This seems to
most catchers a useless bore, but the cap-
or coach should insist upon it, and
the mask should become almost a part of
catcher himself. AU his throwing
and catching should be performed with
his eyes behind its wires, in order that,
from becoming thoroughly accustomed
to it, it may add no inconvenience to
his work.
The breastplate need not be so rigor-
insisted upon, but even this
should be worn frequently. The right
hand glove must always be worn when
practicing throwing, in order that this
also shall offer no unusual difficulty in
the later work. Many a catcher may
think that it looks silly to stand up
with a musk and glove on to throw
at a mark; but there is every reason
for doing this, and he will himself
the value of such practice
when he stands accoutered on the field
behind the batsman and with a runner
on first.
As often as it is convenient the
catcher, particularly if a novice, should
have some one swing the bat before
him while he is in the
gymnasium, By the time he gets
of doors he should be thoroughly ac-

Two Amiable Friends That to He
In San Francisco Together.
There were many other
in San Francisco in those early days,
but I will simply allude to. two four
legged celebrities who will easily re-
membered by the early residents. Bum-
mer and Lazarus were two dogs that
were as thorough vagrants as any old
tramps. Just when It was Bum-
mer made Ills first appearance I cannot
say, but when I first knew him, in 1880,
ho was recognized as a kindred spirit
by all the bummers in town, which
gave him tho name he wore with so
much credit to himself. He was a
mongrel, having evidently a mixed an-
noble Newfoundland blood
coursed through his veins, mingled with
that of the brave but somewhat vicious
bull. He could not be termed a
dog, for he would recognize no mas-
nor would he respond to any
paid but treated all with the
most sublime indifference. He

though he was never known to emu-
late his namesakes. He was always a
come guest, however, and never failed
to have abundance to cat. He never
was known to snarl or bite, and was
never ill used; indeed, it would have
been a bold man who would Undertake
to offer him insult, for the freedom
of the city had been granted him by
the board of supervisors, none but
friends were to be found wherever he
went.
On one occasion he found a mangy
cur dog, who had been stoned by the
boys and generally maltreated. The
poor dog had come sadly to grief,
Having his leg broken and being entire-
disabled. The sympathies of Bum-
mer were roused. He took the poor
dog under his care, supplied him with
food and acted the
toward him until his leg had healed,
when he adopted him as his com-
and thenceforward wherever
one dog was seen the other sure to
be seen also.
The intimacy was noticed, and the
name of was bestowed on the
newcomer. ordinance relating to
Bummer was revised, and Lazarus was
included in the general freedom of tho
city. No dog catchers could in any
way reach them. No licenses were re-
quired from them. Thenceforward
life was n picnic for them But
in 1865, I am sorry to say, mis-
took advantage of the confidence
displayed by the dogs and gave
some poisoned meat, and Bummer
remained alone. A cry of indignation
went up from the entire city, and the ;
newspapers were outspoken in their
opinions of the action. In what year

A for Gum Arable.
M. a Polish chemist, has
discovered what he claims to be a sub-
for gum by boiling one
part of flaxseed with eight parts of
luted sulphuric acid in eight parts of
water until the mixture, which at first
thickens, becomes quite fluid. The
compound is then strained through
muslin, and four times its volume of
strong alcohol is added. The
after being filtered, washed with
alcohol and carefully dried, produces a
clear gum devoid of all taste or odor.
Thirty grains, it is said, are a sufficient
emulsion for an ounce of cod liver oil.
The value of this invention will, of
course, depend on how far this new
can be relied on as a substitute for
the original, and the cost at which it
can be produced for tho
change.
Sea for Diabetic Patients.
Another very delicate question arises
that of deciding whether, yes or no,
we can recommend sea bathing to
patients. As a general thing sea
baths are useful, but only as an
means, in diabetic patients who,

of reacting vigorously, and for
whom we have specially in view a
building up of the general condition.

Canadian farmers, having been
bled sorely for many years by wolves
and coyotes, are taking determined
steps toward ridding of
these pests. The Canadian wolves are
not particularly ferocious, but they are

ace to the flocks and herds. Digs have
been utilized for the protection of the
sheep and cattle, but it remained for
Sir John to import a
of Belgian, French and Scotch
hounds for the special purpose of hunt-
exterminating the wolves. The
experiment has been attended with
fair success, but It Is discovered
more effectual service would be done if
the dogs were capable of greater speed.

A police officer of Chicago has de-
vised an ingenious mode of signaling
for the patrol wagon. He has a
plate fixed in the end of his club,
an opening of suitable shape to
respond with and act as a key or wrench
to turn the lever that sends in the
alarm. This opening also serves as a
mouthpiece to a whistle set tn the base
of the club. This is a most practical
device, for the subjects of arrest are,
as a neither very obliging nor
amiable, and certainly not prone to-re-

C. Sept. 5th,
Harmony of monkey and par-
rot kind is that which now prevails
among the republican Senators, and
the closing debate on the tariff hill,
particularly the reciprocity
would have been mans-
were it not fact that the
prosperity of this country for some
years to come is involved therein.
This way Senator Edmonds
paid his respects to Mr. Blaine's
to reciprocity with Central
and South America, demand of
a country for commodities does not
depend as much upon members as
upon the state of its its
wealth and its civilization. When
look at any Central American or
South American State, I think that
any one average people in
North America have, during the
last year, consumed more of the
products, merchandise, food and
clothing that go to make up the
comfort, luxury, and happiness
of mankind than one thousand
average people in the Central or
South American States.
the expectation of the United States
being able to dispose of a large in-
crease of its products there, is, in
my opinion, one of the greatest
that brilliant men or sober
statesmen have fallen
Senator Sherman in advocating his
Canadian reciprocity was
equally in condemning the
Blame idea. It is not that these
gentlemen anything specially
against reciprocity, bat hate
Blaine, in the republican Sena-
tors all seem to hate each other
anyway.

Greenville that people living outside
