.ho Christian hosts Jumped onto thu
Ilrummngcms yesterday afternoon with both
fcot and they never lot tip until they had
driven thorn way up Into Egypt somewhere
near the source.
It was thu third game for the city cham
pionship and makes the second bunch of
curls Captain Abbott has dangling from his
bolt.
bolt.And
And of course ho Is correspondingly happy.
The secret of the whole affair was the
utter Inability of the brawny North Knden
U ) connect with Hector Connor's Woopmg
Water slants , that Is at the right tlmo ,
whllo ontho ether hand , the boys of the trl-
nnglo swatted L-iwlor hard and opportunely.
They look the load in tha second Inning
and were uovor boadod.
"Jjost again , Artlo I" yelled a bleacher to
Captain Crcjghton , as Stonoy tapped I/xwler
'
on tha wish'boiio In tbo ninth Inning and
ended the fray.
"Yes , " responded Artlo , " but you know
that old gap about the blackest cloud hav
ing a Gcrimin siver ! lining , don't yout Well ,
wait till next Saturday. "
But this Is the way it happened :
Opnliod I.lko n Ilnll < lnmo.
The flrst ball pitched Paddy Dolan pushed
out to. Mt-Kclvoy nnd was sidetracked at
llrst. I awlcr made a single , went to second
on a wild pilch , and slaved there , forMcKol-
voy throw Artlo out to the Cherub , nnd Old
Jack. Carrlg.in boat the ethereal black and
blue. ,
Fet ; th * Christians Stonoy sent a bashful
little grounder down to Robinson , und Hob-
Inson seized It by the slack of the panu and
flrod It a- rod or two ever Boman'a head.
When a incssanecr boy brought tbo ball
back Stonoy was on third.
Still it wiis hardly tlmo for any haltolu
Jabs , for "tho next thrco men , Tufllold ,
Abbott nnd McICelvcy , were retired In speedy
succession.
The second was another blank for tbo
Conventions , hut a windfall for the Young
Men's Christian associations.
Hector Connor smashed the sphere for
i two sacks , mid after Angel had reached first
on balls , that llttlo Wilklns boy hit her for
ft couple himself.
Thou everybody shouted , for on this grand
swat both.tho Weeping Water represcnta-
tlvo und the Cherub camoliomc.
A moment later Mr. Wllklns joined them
as Mike ICullov Iloblnson made another at
tempt to throw the ball out of iho lot.
Hut U Availed 'Km NiuiRht.
From this on to the close Captain Artlo
nnd his sturdy Drums were on the defensive.
They fought inch by Inch for the ground
the furious nnd repeated onslaughts of the
indomitable Christians compelled them to
give up , but they made but feeble attempt to
regain the ground lost. That is until the
last .Inning , when they made a brief but
ilerco rally , and in a measure chocked the
onrush of the hosts. , _
Up to this Juncture the score stood 9 to
in favor of Captain Abbott's baud , and U
looked as if it was all over but tbo shout
ing.But
But right hero Lyslc missed Kollov itobln
eon's third frantic stab , and Mike saved his
bacon by a speedy run to first. Ho stele second
end , but immediately developed symptoms o
paresis , for a moment later the Hector
caught him napping.
Then Bomnn happened along with a two
cushion punch , Kennedy with a single , Davis
with another , and so did Miller and Dolan
too , and the result was three runs for thu
Brums , und un awful scare for tliowayfarors ,
in the narrow path ,
1 'And that was all.

For time' ' the Calluna appeared to hold her
own fairly well , but us soon as the vessels
came on a wind the Navanoo bogau to draw
away perceptibly. The latter , however , was
not ilearly so stiff us the Calluna , which
stood up llko a house , whllo every llttlo puff
laid the Navahoo wo.l down to'her rail. The

Both made two or three tacks under iho

made , however , the Navahoo gained rapidly

[ COXTINUED rnoM FIIIST PAOE. ' ] ' '
n round numbers the sum of' $1,000,000 were
Irawn from the banks , ana all by tha minors.
While these men with money left the coun
try , tbcro are today many hundreds who
: iavo not a cent in the world und must bo-
jomo objects of charity before tbo.beglnultlg
> f winter. Even at , this time they uro llv-
, ng on dry broad and the berries which they
gather in Iho valleys along iho rivers and
small streams.
Very Liberal Mlnori ! .
Right in this connection it is 'due to the
miners to say that they are not beggars.
They arc not men who prize a dollar very
highly and will divide their last loaf with
any person who is In need. While they may
bo upon the venroof starvation , they will
; iot visit the back door arid , importune the
loiiso wife for a cold lunch'vajid a hind out.
Such being "tbo case , it is a" matter ofjus'tlcp
to state that in the relief camp at Denver ,
whllo the occup.ints nre'brandod ' as miners ,
but few , li any ot thorn , belong to the vast
army.of men who have spent years.in dig-
Ring the . precious ores from the bowels of
the mountains.
As the revenues of this city nro indirectly
derived from the income of the mon who
work in the mines , the outlook for the fu
ture Is very dark , for with tlio mills nnd
mines closed no taxes can bo levjod and col
lected , which means that the municipal and
county governments must bo , abandoned ;
that the schools and academic's'must , close
ami that Iho churches must do' < away with
their preachers , who for -years huvi

AGAINST THE SHERMAN ACT
Illinois' Junior Senator Annouhtbs His
Attitude Plainly. ,
SENATOR PALMER IN FAVOR OF REPEAL
Not Think ThcroVIH H Any ( Iront

TnrllT "Hunk" Kllgofo Again
on.llnek.
WASHINGTON. Aup. fi. Senator John
M. Pulmor of Illinois has arrived huro
from Springfield. The senator talked
freely concerning local and national pol
itics. "Tho first thing to bo done , of
course , " ho said , "is to repeal the pur
chasing clause of the Shormnn act. I
am for the repeal without any condition
attached. After wo got repeal there
iv111 bo time to talk of something to tuko
the plnco of the Shormnn not. I have
mndo It a principle of my llfo never to
swim a river till I got to it. The dis-
ouHslon of substitutes for the Sherman
act can only complicate the question ,
and wo want to got rid of the main ovlls
before getting into any complications.
Ono thing is sure , I do not bollovo in a
return to state banks as n moans uf in-
roasting circulation. It is suggested that
FO allow national banks to Tssuo notes
p to the full amount of their bonds. In
oct , every man who comes to Washing-
on will have a financial Bchomo to pro-
out , and I huvo concluded to wait and
ook at the schemes iuatcad of ndvo-
iiting ono. "
The senator was asked if ho antlcl-
lated a speedy revision ot the tarilT.
"I afraid"said ho "tho
am , , country
rill bo disappointed in not seeing much
peed in anything. It is not generally
iipurcclatod that the nilvor'states liuvo
Ixtoen votes in the senate. This , is n
romondous power in delaying action on
ho financial , tariff Or any other meas
ures. The great states of Now York ,
llinois , Indiana und Pennsylvania , with
in aggregate population of nearly
20,000,000 , have not as much voice in
ho United States senate as those littlu
ilvor states with an aggregate popula-
ion of about 2,000,000. This Hhould not
bo forgotten by the people who expect
Miat congress is going to do something
ight off. In duo time I expect to'see a
uroful revision of the tariff and the
iiuuiciul distress of the country will
irobably complicate , and delay.- the
ivork. "
Congressman "Buck" Kilgoro reached
, own last night , and at once began buck-
ng with liis customary oiiergyr. Ho is
, ho champion illtbustoror of thd'houbo ,
and ho says with frankness that lie ex
pects to topoll his record asnlllibustoror
by lighting to tho'last ditch against the
repeal of the silver purohaso'olauso of
ho Sherman law. Kilgoro comes from
Texas , where ho has a free silver con-
tituency. Ho said today with much
Texas bluster that ho did nofcarpyhat
loveland wanted. " Uis constituents
ivanted free silver or the present Sher
man law retained. Ho proposed , how-
jvor , to exhaust every device of parlia
mentary obstruction before permitting
the repeal to pass. Ho was confidant
that the democratic house could not
adopt a cloture rule , us they had so long
denounced "gag-rule. " And without
cloture Kilgoro smilingly asserted that
" 10 would bo able , with the assistance of
a few other filibustering silver men , to
the country a very interesting
spectacle of delayed legislation.
Four Consiilcuoiu KuctH.
WASHINGTON ; Aug. 5. Four fuots nro
conspicuous in-tho statements of all the
congressmen who bavo arrived : ] . That
they are unwilling to commit them
selves dotinitcly as to the coin-so which
they will pursue with regard to silver
egislation until they shall have read the
resident's message. 2. That it is'in
evitable that tarilT as well as financial
egislation must bo considered. 3. That
there is little doubt that the extra ses
sion is simply the beginning of the
regular session of the Fifty-third con
ress und that it may bo expected to

( iooil rrospoctH for u Strike.
EVANSVILI.K , Ind. , Aug. fl. Thpro is
pretty good chancp for all the train
men of the Evunsvillo k Terre Haute
road to go out on a big strike. Trouble
has econ brewing for some time .since
President Grammar expressed his inten
tion to order a general reduction of
wages. The cut has never bcon enforced ,
as the movement mot with unanimous
disfavorwhen the matter was flrst men
tioned. The .officials of the road mot
witli the men ono night this week and
came very near convincing thorn that
the cut was absolutely necessary. The
road had bcon paying fair wages to its
employes , but * since the . Jlnanuial
stringency and the reduction in rates it
is argued that wages will 'have to bo cut
to make things oven up.
It was learned last night that a com
mittee of railroad men had boon Hint to
Evansville from Terre Haute to consult
with the local employes. 1 AVliatcvor
passes between the c mmittco and the
local committee will not bo known nn-
loss a strike is declared. No dcjlnlto
action is likely to bo taken in the matter -
tor , should tilings develop unfavorably
for th'o men , until Sunday , when Mcssi-h.
Eugene Dobbs and Eugene Howard
with other railroad leaders will bo huro
to address the workingmon.
An loirn Mini' * I'liin.
CHICAGO , Aug. C. An Oscoola , la. ,
man writes to the Inter Ocean a plan to
solve the vexed question of bimetallism
as follows : "My plan would be a coin
consisting of pilro gold wortli fiO cnnts ,
188 grains of pure silver worth f > 0 cents ,
which , amalgamated , would make a dollar
lar of 200 grains. This Hhould bo the
standard dollar or unit of value and a
full legal toncior , which would bo nearly
the si/o of oup prusont half dollar. Free
coinage should bo authorized in this
proposition , nearly 10 to 1 , which would
establish bimetallism in fact and not in
name only. Our present output of $ , ' ) ! { , - "
000,000 of gold pop year would thus absorb -
serb an onuul amount of silver , and there
is no reason why such coins should not
pass around the world , Doubled , a 82
coin would still not bo as big us the
present silver dollar , which could o re
tired. This would beat the Sherman
experiments and could easily bo made to
dilTor in appearance from the present
coins. "

On Thursday evening , December SO , 1807 ,
Dr. Duryoa , having resigned the pnstorshfp
of the Marble Dutch Reformed church , Now
York , wai Installed pastor of the
Clnsson avenue 1'rcsbytorlan church.
Services were nt that tlmo hold In the
chapel on Monroe street. On Dpuomboi * 1
of the following year the corner s'tono of the
present handsome and snug odlllco was laid.
Ilov. William 11. Uooth of Now York , Uov.
Dr. Theodore 1 * Cuylor and F.Uhor Ulonsrin
participated In tbo exorcises. In Ih7l ) Dr.
Dur.vea. whose health w.is somewhat Im
paired for lack of needed ret. foil compelled
to retire. Circumstances led. him to accept
n call to ono of the leading and wealthy Con
gregational churches in Boston , under , a
promise that his pastoral duties would bo
light. This deprived the people of this , city
of much Instructive nroachlng and lecturlnif
nt the hands of ono who \\us to thorn a veritable -
table schoolmaster. When worn out by
domestic nnilction in Boston Dr. Duryoa was
ready to abandon scenes and associations
which had all been pleasant to him , and so
when Omr.hu stretched out its hands to him
with an ouruest uial unanimous call to
como over and help thorn , ho no-
coptuil , and has now for n number
of years boon rendering valuable sory-
Ice indoors und outdoors in that .Nebraska
Hold. _ At the close of the Sunday services
during hH temporary stay In tins neighbor
hood ho bus boon the recipient of ovations.
The congregations , despite the intense boat
of the weather , have boon largo and atten
tive. The sermons have been eloquent , ear
nest , sympathetic and full ot educative
power. Old parishioners from Now York
have bcon to hear him and to speak with
him , and it has been an Interesting spectacle
for an observer to witness the irleiully
Hashes , the quick Identifications , the splendid -
did memory of faces evinced by tha pre.ich-
or. Young people become mature have boon
most readily recognized by the pnitor of
their youth. Then there Is an exchange of
remembrances of events in which all were
mutually interested 10115 ago. There has
bcon the kindly , fervent words'of consolation
in eases where bereavement had douo Ita
work. Old men who have grown older have
also Hocked around their former pastor to
test nlm , but the names are on his lips
the instant hands are cl.ispcd. Mothers
have introduced their sons and daughters ,
whom Dr. Duryoa baptUod , und these young
pcoplo nave shared with their parent s the
happy reunion with the pastor of their in-
fancy. Dr. Duryoa never manifests hurry.
Ho seems to enjoy the friciu's ' who hnvo the
longest stories to tell him , and ho listens to
reminiscences with n gusto which shows
that bo enjoys it. Ills present visit has
beou a source of great joy to hundreds who
have grasped his hand and poured their ex
periences of years into his willing oars ,
while it has enhanced to him the memories
of tlioso whom ho has scon us well as of
those who have taken their departure since
18TU , when ho loft the city.
Recently Dr. Dur.vea has boon taxing his
powers by out door preaching , and us n
result his voice is strained , and bo has
been ordered , after the services of
today , to close his mouth for nome tlmo
to como , and to remain perfectly quiet , und
subsequently to bo moro moderate in the ox-
pen Jituro of bis spoalcing powers. The con
tact of Dr. IJuryoa with his old frlstids has
been : i very refreshing spectacle to these
who have scon it , without having previously
known him. With tha exception of bolng a
llttk gray , the doctor appears but llttlo
changed from the times when his face and
form were familiar in our streets. The im
pression nmdo by this visit and by his 'pulpit
ministrations during the last three Sundays
of July Is a wholesome ono , andJms given
birth to a longing for n Brooklyn reunion of
a moro permanent and lasting character.
Ouo mrcil man said last Sunday night in a
very calm tone , "Brooklyn is where Dr.
Duryo.i has got to-fotch up. "

DBS MOINKS , Aug. fl. Governor
Boies' letter declining in udvanco tno
nomination for a third tonn , continuing
his recent interview , has caused consid
erable excitement und activity in demo
cratic circles. The party bosses who
had determined to nominate him despite
his positive verbal declination ave now
compelled to reconstruct their slate ,
and there are indications of a very
lively scramble for the leadership.
Judge Allison of Sioux City appears to
have the largest following , especially in
the northwest. The Mississippi river
counties are likely to come in solidly for
John C. Bills of IXivunport , who hud
boon slated , for second place on thn
ticket with Holes. Mr. UlHs is a strong
man and a linn democrat , but ho would
bo handicapped by his record in Iho
Htato senate , where ho championed u hill
for the taxation of church property.
Llnutonnnt Governor Uostow lias many
friends among the rank and Illo , but the
loaders will not accept him. Oolonol
Charles A. Clark of Cedar Kupids can
have a largo support in the convention
if ho Is willing to outer the race , and
probably ho would make the strongest
c-andidato that could bo named. Having
boon a prominent railroad attorney ( or
years , he Itt especially well qualified to
load the party which lias so long plumed
itself as the champion of unti-moiiopolv.
W. W. Witmor of Dos Moines is being
strongly urged by the local democrats ,
and ho would make a very strong can
vass 'f nominated. The situation grows
inton-Hting.
