The work of both teams was wretched; one club seemed to be irying to outdo the orher in poor plaving. The Bostons seemed to be sure winners until the ninth inning, when, after two men were out, the Washingtons made four runs. In the last half of the ninth, after two’ were out, Boston got two men on bases, with Tenny at the bat. )[t was only a wonderful stop by O’Brien that prevented’ Boston from ‘scoring, giving the gauze to Washing ton.

The story js repeated by responsibte persons, who give the name of the student. The young woman in question had intelligence, tact and ability. ‘she had a roommate, to whom she spoke of the wealth of her parents and their style of living. who in turn re~ peated the conversation to her father, a man of extensive business connec: tions. He made inquines and found that the only man in the place named bearing the name she’ gave was a negro. This information he commu- ~-picated to his daughte> and, acting upon his advice, she, under some pretext, secured another roommate. A few days before commencement this girl told her history to one of the faculty, She eaid that es a little girl she was clever and bright beyond the average of her race, and strangers were attracted to her, A woman cf wealth and pésition saw in her possi— bilities of a noble womanhood if ‘properly ttuined and took her into their own household and gave her all the education which money and refine- ment could command. She passed the required examinations, entered Vassar College and completed the prescribed course of study. In a Bad Fix Suid a gentleman yesterday just re- torned from a trip in che eastern part of the State: “I feel sorry for the people of that section. The other day I was at the largest store in a good sized town when a young lady came in and said to the propritor of the store that she had $86 “in county scrip in her Sand, wanting to knew if she could buy some things at the stor, Ihe man told her that he weuld sell her anything he had on as long time as. she. desired, but .that. lie evuld not take the scrip, for not a dollar was in the treasury, and he did not know when there would be. ‘The lady said she was a teacher and had just been paid. She did not know what to do, for she said she had to Eve and look after ber mother and she had no other means of support. I find.in many of these eastern coun- ties just such a state of affairs, Things are in control of the worst element, of politicians of the Republi. can faith—negrogs and illiterate: whites+who have brought things io a pretty pass.” ao This is bad, but the people in that section brought it on themselves, In 776 the west came to their relief, In 794 they kicked out of the traces ale now they are reaping their reward.

It used to be tought necessary when eny one got sick to bleed the suflerer as a preliminary to the restora- tion of health, We now know that this was a delusion and @ mistak e. But there are thousands of credulcus persons who think that the passage of a law increasing Federal taxation and vleeding the pockets of the people will cure the business sickness which which | afflicts the country. In due season this delusion will also passaway- But the good tame will never come if the schemers who profit by po pular super~ stition can prevenv it. The toreign demand for our grain, the new dis coveries of gold, the abuzdance of our harvests and the general growth ,of confidence in the ability of ‘the Gov- ernment to maintain its credit and pay its debts have filled the hearts of the people with hope. But those who are making unearned millions of dollars out of the changes in our taxes point to the newly smoking chimneys and whirring whee's and cry: “Great is thr tariff!

Mii Good One on Hawthorne It was Georgia day at the Tennessee centennial and Dr. J. B. Hawthorre was asked to deliver the address cf welcome, In doing $0 he said : “A manly man ie the noblest work of Gud.” In his response Governor Atkinson t2ok issue with him and said: “Down in Georgia they believe that woman is the noblest work of God.” ‘The audience applauded the: sentimen: vigorously. Dr. Hawthorne rose and remarked: ‘1 thought I was understood that the men embrace the women.” It was some little time be- fore Governor Atkinson had ain op- portunity to reply, owing to the violent laughter of the audience. When he did, he said, “That may be t rue, but ] ‘did not expect a minister, to acknowl- edge it publicly.” The papers stated tiat it was three minutes before he couid proceed with his speech. —— Don't Tobacco Spit and Smoke Your Tite Away. — If you want to quit tobacco using easily and torever, be. made well strong, magnetic, full of mew life and vigor, take No-To-Bac, the wonder- worker that makes weak men, strong, Many gain ven pounds in ten days. ‘Over 400,000 cured, Buy No-Io-Ba guarantee a cure.
