There were at least 6,000 , people plo present ut the park yesterday afternoon a grand assemblage. They all wont out to sco the Whlto Sox Bet In their I'onoy-moniKomory for the third consecutive tlmo upon the Apostles. But they were woefully disappointed , for tha visitors were on their mottle , nnd they gnvo the locals such n smash ootwcon the eyes that they won't forgot It for many and muny a day. It was nn off day with nearly the entire team , Walsh , Cannvnn and Clarke being the only ones who escaped without an error. It was the yellowest game of the season , and is to bo regretted , inasmuch as it was witnessed by fluch a magnificent crowd. Just think of itl St. Paul piled np no less than eight great big corn-fed runs in the llrst inning , by the graca of four bits and lour errors. It seemed for a tlmo as if the Omahas had lost their senses , and they floundered around the diamond and in the field like a lot of fish out of wntor. Muffs , wild throws , fumbles and other cbolco uric n-brao ornamented their every move , and It looked as if they never could put the side out. ' Clarke , who was In the box , -was not him self. Ho WAR suffering from a strain lu the side sustained in Thursday's game , and should never linvo gene In to pitch nt all. Still , Clarice's work was not accountable for the defeat by any moans , for had his col leagues played with u semblance of their normal form , another scalp would bo dang ling ut their belt. Ho batted beautifully , securing - curing two corking singles and n homo run , nnd ns it wns , the Saints got but ono moro hit off him than the Whlto Sox did oil Willie Mains and Old Dan Tucker. Tlio boys knocked Willie out of the box in the fifth innlnc. and had they had another whack at him , they would surely have won the CTUIO. Hut TucKer displaced him , nnd the chance worked well , for at critical times ho was a tower or strength. The score , however , will supply all nccos- Bar.v particulars. Hero it is : OMAHA. SUIIHAUV.

Eloctrlo motor street railways - ways nro being built and will bo In operation tins fall , Omutm people and papers who persistently fought the network of wires which Mercer's uiolor spread over the city would bo astonished to see the methods in use hero as well as lu other const cities. The -polos are placed in the center of the street , between the tracks , and the wires suspended from Iron arms. The result n destructive to the appearance of the street * , seriously impedes traUlc , and endan gers life and limb. But the people cnro not for appearances. The chief ambition is to build a town without regard to consequences. The Polouso valley and the Coour d'Aleno mines to the southeast and the Colvllle valley loy to the north , furnish the cpmtnorcial strength and sustenance of Spokane , I was deeply impressed 'with ' tha energy and libor- ullty displayed rocoutly by the moneyed uion of the town. It is in sharp and choortul con trast with the parsimonious ' SNAIL PACK OF OMAHA In matters of supreme importance to the commorclnl growth of the metropolis. For flvo years or raoro Omnha has stretched and strained her lungs and shed u nullpond of ink discussing and arguing thoibullding of a northern railroad That long feit wnnt- still remains unfilled , the trade pf South Dakota is gravitating to other channels , , and millions of idle money is gathering rust in the vaults of the city. SpTikano jolt the nec essity of a railroad to the north. The rich Colvillo valley , with its abundance of timber and rapidly increasing agricultural products , demanded railroad facilities. The business men of the city did not waste time and breath discussing wavs and moans. They planked down thocash for preliminary work , organized a company , placod'their ' paper on the market , and in three days $500,000 was put up. The road is now being built , and soventy-fivo to one hundred miles will bo in operation this fall. Such enterprise and promptitude cannot 'fail of success , find Spokane - kane is bound to prosper while her people possess the means and vigilance to grasp the ruuiu chauco and turn it to account. Tacoma and Seattle are active rivals for the supremacy of Puget sound. The former is the foster child of tno Northern Paciilc. It is located on the southern extremity ot the sound , with acres of swamp exposed at low tide. This Rives the iilr that rich , luxuriant aroma peculiar to a group of ' nrNDKllINQ FAOTOKIES ON A HOOM. The town Is perched on a plateau fifty to one hundred foot abdvo the bay , is compactly built , and bustling With business.

The 11 ro which swept Seattle last May was n blessing in dlsguiso.

Hundreds of those shells wont down in'tho bosom of Uamo"car- rylng with thorn many flno business blocks. Scourged By flro , the city is now rlslnjjfrom its ashes In substantial and magnifleont pro portions , and in a 'few ' weeks will be one of tbo best built and handsomest cities in tbo "west. It has one of the tiAitnoits ON and enthusiastic residents cherish the hope that it will soon rival San. Francisco in the trade of the orient.

Cut ripe poaches into thin slices and simmer tnom slightly in n syrup made of half a pound of sugar to every pound of penchos. Remove from the syrup and lay in shallow dishes in the sun , and every day pour ever them a portion of the syrup , which must have boon boiled down very thick after the ponchos were cooked in it. Turn the poaches over from time to time. Covet * them with thin muslin tacked to a frame so as to protect thotn from dust and insects. When all of the syrup has boon used up and the fruit is well dried , pack away closely in boxes lined with thick paper , sifting sugar on each layer of puachcs as you pack .them.

The Ebony Damsels Whom linn Knllntod in His Army. The war In TInytl , whore the alleged rightful ruler Legitlmo is being driven into his last ditch by the alleged revolutionary loader Ulppol.vto , ha * developed an interesting Jonturodn the drafting of women into the army of the formorf says the .Now Orleans Picayune , liogltlme has boon worsted on every flold nnd driven back until his domain Is limited pretty nearly to his capital citv of Fort uu Prince. As his army has dwindled away largely bv desertion to the other faction , ho found himself without troops to man his forti- -flcations , for his city was long ago strongly fortified by the Spaniards and French who hold at nt different periods. In this extremity XiOgltiine has hit upon the plan of filling up his do plo ted ranks with women. There being a sur plus of the softer sax in the capital of the negro republic , it has boon possible to enroll quite a number of these ebony amazons , -who are not embodied in ox- cluslvo battalions of their own sex , but are distributed among the men. These women are dressed in masculine coa- tumos , nnd said to look very much like negro youths of the miilo persuasion. The tfoytiun negroes , where they havp been nnmlgamatod with the native Caribs , have become almost beardless , particularly when the men are young , and bonce those Haytiau amazons are said to bo distinguishable from the males when all are standing in line to gether , chiefly by the fact that the faces of the women are more pleasing and less hard and brutal than are these of the men. Every portion who has scon our own fair amu/.ons on the stage or engaged in a broom drill will have noticed that in the peculiar conformu- tion of the sex the superior swell at the haunches and the lessor breadth of shoulders combine to oxnrt special ef fects upon the manual of arms. When the guns are brought to a "carry , " being rested against the hip and upon the shoulder , they do not stand erect , but incline at an angle to- wnrds the head of the fair soldier. Moreover , when the trdopsuro aligned in "position of the soldier" it is more easy for them to touch hips than elbows as required by the code , und should the time ever come when the armies of the white nations are to bo made up of women , it is to bo hoped , in the interest of grace and symmetry , that somebody will design special arms and a munua. for their use suited to the conformation of the beautiful sex. "Whon the mascu line creature takes up the trade of a soldier ho goes pi for show aud gets himself up as gorgeously as possible. If wo are to have hereafter an army of amazons , thov should bo matlo up altogether lovely. Fortunately , the ancient style of excision of the breast will not bo perpetuated. That was done to enable the fair warrior to draw the bow to its utmost roach. Now , the drawing of the bouux is done in quite a different munneras the ancient weapons of barbarism have all boon discarded. But to return to the Haytinns , these sable Moll Pitchers nnd maids of Surii- gossa have not yet done any lighting ; but should they ho driven to it they will probably display as much bravery as women do in nn emergency. It seems n brutal outrage to drive the softer Sox into battle , but If wo arc to credit ancient traditions , it has boon often done , and in view of the fact that the entire civilized world is accumulat ing a constantly increasing deficiency of men and a corresponding excess in the number ot women , it is not out of the reach of possibility that the myths of the Old World anw/ons may bo re alized in fact as time advances. What has been will bo again. WHERE DOGS ARE DOOMED. Tlio tiatcst Mode of Kllllnt ; Gotham OlIfH. Those nre the dog days , and ns n con sequence of the cherished superstition pertaining thereto many dogs have a day at the pound. The pound is now situated nt the foot of East Ono Hun dred nnd Socoiiil street , and the gas-producing neighborhood ot East Sixteenth street , whore the yelp of the imprisoned cur was wont to Dreak the stillness of the aummor sol stice , knows it no moro. The custodian is Mr. William Finn , and ha has under Ills care on the average about sovontv- flvo dogs a day. The inalo and female dogs are kapt in separate apartnunts and are given forty-eight hours proba tion. Mondays , Wednesdays and Fridays uro the days of doom , and unlucky criminals not rescued on the intervening days are summarily sout to the happy hunting grounds. The ignominious cur is by no moans alone in suffering this enforced retire ment to his last sloop. Rare and costly dogs go down with him. A few days ago there were under Hontcjiico of death in the pound several flno collies , fox terriers and setters. The surprising thing is that these valuable dogs should bo allowed to dlo when anyone can tuka them out and ncqulro absolute owner- shin on the payment to the poundmnBtor of S3 a Jioud. The method of killing the dogs nowin vogue is much more humurio than the old ono of drowning , says the Now York Times. They are put into an oblong covered box lined with zinc and largo enough to hold forty-eight. The dogs nro admitted through a vortlcally-opon- ing door at ono end , As soon as the box Is full the door is closed and ordi nary illuminating gas drawn from a street main ia turned on by a valve in the top of the box. The doga fall asleep without pain , and In n few minutes nro dead. Then the pas IB turned into the river by a valve In the bottom of the box. A door ut the end of the box oppo site to that uy which the dogs entered Is raised , nnd the bottom of the box , which travolb on rollers , is drawn out with the carcasses.

After this important feature of the day's attractions was performed satisfac torily , the other pleasures wnro given their meeil of attention. To s.iy that there was a large crowd in attendance is putting it mildly. The Immense grove was fniiiy tlirongod with visitors from all parts of the state , all moot ing with the common purpose of having a good timo. A largo platform was eroded iu the center of the park for the accommoda tion of lovers of the dunce , while tables and benches were placed here and there.
