terest was manifested on both sides and
eTTusidcra'i le money changed hands. One
peculiar feature of the game was that
some of the leading lights of the "West

and others, were very active
in guying and showing unpardonable
discourtesy to the visiting club. Dur
ing the progress of tlte game a regular

trouble was avoided ouiy by the coolness

Judge Wakefield announced that sen
tence would be pronounced Monday,
Sept. 20. Mimchrath received the verdict
calmly, lie remains at liberty on the
bond. The jury took but two ballots on
the question of guilt, the remaining ballots
being on the degree of guilt. The ver
dict, while somewhat unlookcd for, is
received here twith genenl approval.
j There is a great probability of further
developements in the great case soon,
and it is not improbable that Munchrath

now certain that others of the defendants

IT'S THE UNDERWEAR'S FAULT.
(V Thyslcian Who Cures isorderg by
I'rescribins AVooleu Underclothiug.
'Bad cold?"
"1 tv.ouhl say I had, doctor," responded
the reporter as he smothered a cough.
"What kind of underclothing do you
wear?"
"The same kind I woro all summer."
"L.inen or cotton:'"
"I really can't say. Cotton, I believe."
"Did you sutler from the heat much
during the summer?"
"Sutler? I should say I did. I nearly
melted."
"And you are a trifle chilly, now that
the cold wave has come?"
"I am, indeed; but what have my un
derclothes to do with that? I have always
worn the same kind in summer."
"So does almost every one. The use of
linen and cotton for underwear is one of
the commonest of all errors in this coun
try. Now in Germany we have a move
ment which is called the German school
of clothing reform. It aims to replace
cotton and linen with woolen goods.
There are many reasons why this should
be done. AVool exercises a stimulating
effect upon the skin, unlike linen and
cotton, and consequently promotes the
proper action of the pores, glands and
superficial tissues. It is a nonconductor
of heat and preserves th normal temper
ature of the body. It allows a freer es
cape of the perspiration, aVd thus lowers,
by evaporation, any abnormal tempera
ture of the body, and facilitates the loss
of excessive heat. Also, through its non
conductivity of heat, it preserves tho
normal measure of warmth. Hence it Is
a better protection against the extremes
of either heat or cold than linen or
cotton."
"Well, those certainly do seem to be
reasons enough."
"Indeed they are, but they are not all.
Wool is electrical, while linen and cotton
are not. Wool can excite electricity, but
does not conduct it. Therefore a body
clothed in wool loses less of its ani
mal electricity, while fresh electricity
is excited on the surface. The intimate
relationship between galvanic, nervous
and vital forces render this peculiarity of
the greatest importance to the wearer."
"Why doesn't every one wear wool
then?"
"Because," answered the physician,
"the old idea of having something flumsy
and gauzy next to the flesh is too firmly
instilled in the minds of the manufac
turers of underwear for them to experi
ment with woolen materials. I have cured
a large number of sick men of seemingly
incurable disorders by simply prescribing
a change in their underwear. While it is
not an infallible cure all." added the phy
sician in conclusion, "it certainly is of
much benefit, and its general adoption
would result in great permanent good."
Always Get a Check.
Thieves are np to a new trick. A man
sends a valuable watch to a jeweler for
repairs. A messenger boy goes after the
watch, pays the charges and brings the
timepiece to the man who sends for it,
but who is not the owner. When you
have your watch repaired get a check for
it. New York Commercial Advertiser.

The True natch Calslne.
Pooplo generally ask as to another
country, "What sort of food did you
have?" Well, to choose out tho nioHt
genuinely Dutch dishes, we Jiad, ixThajw,
potato puree, or Inmillon, llavorcd with
chervil, and containing balls of veal forco
moat. 1 no fish might be soles or plaice,
but, to give mo kindly a more national
delicacy, we had water bass from the
canals sonietimoa. These are about the
r.izo of our trout, and are served up, half
a dozen or so, in a deep dish, swimming
in the water they are lioiled in, flavored
with "Hat leaved parsley." (The Eng
lish name for this plant I cannot say, it
lieing strange to me, but my cousin lingo
declared it unknown to us.) Water bass
are eaten with thin sandwiches of rye
bread; but without tho latter, and the
bread ami butter only, I thought them
excellent.
Another night wo had a jack, done
Dutch fashion. When boiled, all the
small lionos were removed, and the fish
chopped up and mixed with butter, pop
per, onions and savory herbs. Then,
rolled back into fish like shajie, tho jack
ts browned, bread crutnbed and eaten
always with salad. It was really very
goxl. Next came generally roast or
stewed veal or beef, mutton leing so
poor it is rarely eaten. For vegetables,
invariably iotatoes, excellently cooked,
with butter, and besides thoso we like
wise uso boiled endives and broad
crumbed cabbage. Partridges followed,
sometimes au choux, or other game.
Wild ducks were plentiful and some
neighliors had just had an early dawn's
sjKirt out in the dunes, getting ninety
four birds to four guns. "Not so bad,
but still not very good," said the Irre
pressible. Of sweets and savories I need
give no hints, liecauso they were mostly
of French origin.
Dessert over, both ladies and gentle
men return together to the drawing room
for coffee, which is drank in the smallest
and most precious of handleless old blue
china. Such a set with U3 would tie be
hind a glass case. Then come liqueurs
cognac and aniseed, tho latter being a
favorite. Tho gentlemen went out this
warm evening to smoke their cigarettes
on the terrace for a little while. Then
they dropped in again to the cherry an
tique room for chat and tea. The ma
hogany peat bucket and its kettle had
been placed by tho footman, as usual,
beside tho table, and very old Chinese
little teacups, almost as valuable osjj the
blue iorcelain, were ranged on a wooden
tray truly Dutch. English Illustrated
Magazine.
During: the French Revolution.
An English witness relates how in Oc
tober of 1794 sho was one day standing
at the door of a shop to which a begerar
came to buy a slice of pumpkin. The
shopkeeper refused to let it go for less
than tho price she had originally fixed,
whereupon the beggar insolently told her
that sho was gangrenoe d'aristocratie.
The unhappy shopkeeper turned pale and
cried out, "My civisme is beyond dis
pute, but take the pumpkin!" The beg
gar's reply was, "Ah! now you are a
good republican!" The muttered com
ment of the shopkeeper was, "Y'es, yes,
'tis a fine thing to bo a good republican
when one lias not bread to eat."
When the threat of a beggar could
make an honest and insignificant person
like tliis old market woman tremble and
turn pale, it is not surprising to find that
for many months after the actual reign
of terror was over, people very generally
went about under a continual sense of
apprehension. Tho Parisians of thoso
days are said to have habitually worn a
"revolutionary aspect. " They had been
at one time the frankest and most viva
cious people in the world gay, open,
cheery and polite. Tho terror had made
them morose and suspicious. They walked
with their heads bent on their breasts,
and many of them had contracted a habit
of looking from under the lids of their
half shut eyes before speaking, especially
to strangers. Tho bolder and more reck
less spirits swaggered about in ultra revo
lutionary costume; carmagnole of rough
cloth, leather breeches, top boots and a
bonnet rouge with a preposterously large
tricolored cockade at the side. Temple
