P. Surface, Fawn Elvor, who vrrltca under date of Feb. 14, 1893: WARD ON BASEBALC The Great Shortstop Talks of the Essentials of Great Team Work. "There are many elements essential to the composition of a winning baseball team, says John M. Ward ia the New York Journal.

"Mere ability to hit and run and catch and throw is not enough, neither will the greatest pitching strength be alone enough, and add to all these the highest perfection of discipline and team work and there may (till be some things lacking. "A baseball team is an intricate combination and all its parts must work smoothly together. Eor the management it is a trying feature that to win every detail must be in perfect accord, whereas some apparently trifling defect will demoralize the entire team. There to what had "been done. Really, Governor Bradley's most intimate friends have no hope of his being nominated, and are only urging him in order to increase his opportunities at some future time.

Ever since his candidacy began there has been an indication of lukewarmness in the support accorded him and at no time haa the claim been made that he had a possible chance of It is the old "favorite son" racket worked over, and like the boom of Cullom in Illinois, has fallen as flat as Cleveland's third term scheme. Mr. Roberts is an Ohio man. He came from Governor McKiniey's home, and 1 went into Kentucky several years ago, where he has since Conducted an energetic and hustling Republican paper. He is a power in the political world and has made himself felt in many ways.

It is quite natural that coming from this state he should indorse Governor McKinley, but it is not this alone which induces him to support Mr. McKinley. He does it because he believes that the good of Kentucky and of the entiro country depends more largely upon Governor McKiniey's election than anything else. He was the first to espouse his cause in the state, and no one has clung to it more tenaciously than he ever since. Mr.

Roberts does not hesitate to express himself, and declares that Governor McKinley is certain to be nominated and elected. He has figured it out and knows the personal choice of every delegate who has been elected. To hear him talk one would think both the convention and election had been held and it was all over but the inauguration. Practically that is so, and Mr. Roberts is not alone in his belief, as a i rift-, 4-7'lis-7 I I iipia Kentucky Will Be Added to trie list of Supporting State WHAT TEOMINENT MEN SAT.

Mr. Tod is a yonng man and a good man, and although raised in the bluegrass region of Kentucky, is as genuine a Republican as can be found in the granite-ribbed hills of Vermont, where Republicanism has flourished ever since the party's organization. When the presidential campaign first opened Mr. Tod announced his intention of supporting Governor McKinley, GOVERNOR and though besieged by the overtures of the Bradley followers, has clung to that determination: ever since. When he found time to talk with me, after answering the questions of a half dozed callers who were in the office, he said "Though a number of the delegates of this state have been instructed to support Governor Bradley, nevertheless the sen-1 timent of the people is overwhelmingly in favor of the Ohio candidate.

Kentucky has undergone a great change within the past few years and is now a Republican state. I have letters from leading members of the party in all parts of the state, and they assure mo that 90 per cent of the Republican voters honestly desire the nomination and election of Major McKiuley." The people of this state aro tired of being represented as long-haired citi zens, who go around in heavj boots and carry revolvers in their belts. That was all right 20 years ago, but they have outgrown it and are now on tho 1 level with the people of other parts of the country. This is tho reason Democracy has declined and anism flourished. Great mauwf actur- iug industries have sprung up with a 1 mushroom growth, and the thousands of i employes who find work within their walls are McKinley men by instinct.

They know tne good results which, fol-; lowed the inagnration of his tariff policy, WtllkiVh -sSi- iJsSr feauy what it ig. Iti3 attached to the of. the bicycle in tho cnUnarypo- The Bard of Avon Plainly Knew All About the Modern Bicycle, Shakespeare, it would seem, must have known something about the bioy-cle, for throughout his plays he makes frequent references to the wheel. It must be that Hamlet's father had visited a bicycle academy, where beginners on the wheel were plenty, for his ghost laid, "What a falling off was there!" This moat excellent description is par- Blleled by another in the same play, in Which reference is made to an accident, the new woman of the early sixteenth century being evidently the greatest Buff erer. The First Player says "Break all the spokes and fellies form her wheel.

Then the Fool in "Lear" gives advice to coasters of the merits of which the modern rider may judge for himself. He says: "Let go thy hold when a great wheel runs down hill let it break thy neck with following it" Even Cleopatra had her wheel. Antony advises her to mount it and seek Saesar, when he says "Of seek your: honor, with your safety. There were evidently bicycle tieves in these days, and owners had to carefully guard their precious wheels. In "The Tempest" Alonzo says to the King: Wo, too, my lord, Will guard your person whilo you take your rest And watch your safety.

In that same play Ariel undoubtedly heard the King and his attendants coming on their wheels vhen she sang: Hark! Now I hoar them; ding dong, belli There is no doubt that Achilles, in "Troilus and Cressida," traveled on a bicycle, for he says to his myrmidons: Attend me while I wheel. It is safe to assume that, as today the wheel is a never ending source of conversation, so was it at the time of Titus Andronicus, though the listener was more patieut then. Aaron says to De- metrius Now talk at pleasure of yotir safety. It appears from a quotation made by tho "king fn "All's Well' That Ends Well" that the law reauired lamns to he carried at night, and that a violation of it was followed by death. He says Let me live after my flame lacks oil.

i Chains were not noiseless, and bells were used in the days of tho "Comedy of Errors, as is shown by a conversa- tion hetween the Dromio of Syracuse and Adrians, which runs thus A cboiu, a chain I Do yoa not hear it? What, the chain? No, no tho bell. The availabilit of wheels in ange.r-ons service is illustrated in "Coriola-nus," when the winded messenger says to Cominius: Spies of tho Volscos Held me in chase, that I was forced to wheel Three or four mi lea about: else had 1. sir, EM an hour since brought my report. The tiro of which Shakespeare wrote was evidently filled with hair instead of air, aud even its color was of importance. In Ado About Nothing" Margaret says: I like the new tiro within excellently, if the hair were a thought browner.

Puck's prophetic remark about placing a girdle round the world in 40 minutes is fully equaled by that of Launce in "The Two Gentlemen of Verona" when he says: Then may I set the world on wheels. Surely this prophecy has been fulfilled. New York Herald. CELEBRITIES WHO CYCLE. Lady Brassey is an enthusiastic cy- clist.

The czar of Russia, it is said, is privately practicing on a bicycle. M. Zola advises all brain workers to take to cycling, and some of them have obeyed his behest. i Tolstoi, now 67 years bid, is a -wheelman. He has applied for permission to rido in the city of Moscow.

Baron Rothschild has had a six lap cement track built for the use of himself and guests when taking exercise on a bicycle. Mrs. U. S. Grant, Mrs.

Har risen, accompanied by their wives, will sail for Southampton on June 4 for tour awheel through Europe. The wife of Senator Elect Foraker of Ohio and her three daughters are en thusiimts on the bicycle. They will take their wheels with them to Washington when the senator's official term begins.

Royal Phelps Carroll," owner of the p.mous racing yacht Navaho, divides his love of sport equally between sailsig and cycling, says The Wheel. When off on a yacht cruise, wheels for his wife, himself and his captain are always a part of his boat's equipment BASEBALL BREVITIES. Umpire Tim Keefe's wife is a sculp Catcher Simmer rides to the Cleve land ball park on his wheel every day. It looks as if New York has unearthed a star pitcher in the Vermont lad Do- heny. Umpire Tom Lynch docs not permit players to address him on the field by his Christian name.

That Boston infield seems a trifle and the Beaneaters are sighing for the return of Jimmy Collins to third base. Manager McGunnigle of the Louisville thinks well of "Roaring Bill" Hasamaer, and will keep him on first base. Anson's Willie Bill Jdutchinson is pitching great ball for Minneapolis. It is thought that ho will shortly be recalled. First Baseman Goeckel of the University of Pennsylvania team has Bigned With the Springfield club of the Eastern league.

According to the Pittsburg baseball scribes, Denny Lyons ia playing the game of his life at third for the Pirates at present. Kid Gleason says that Frazer of Louis ville is the most promising pitcher in the League, and he is as game as they make them. A Boston enthusiast has offered a box of cigars to every Providence player making a home run on the Providence grounds this season. Lew Shreve, he of the bewildering drop ball in the old days of the Indianapolis Maroons, has a clerkship in a civil engineer's office at his home in Louisville. Joe Sommers, who was a star fielder for the Cincinnati Reds in the early eighties, has been appointed an umpire in the Western league, filling the place made vacant by the resignation of Sandy McDermott.

No Carrying. The fond father, the admiring uncle and -the doting big brother, who have been in the habit of strapping baby into basket or other contrivance and giving the youngster a ride on bicycle, must forego that sort of amusement hereafter or incur the liability of prose-cution. Such is the edict of the Illinois Humane society of Chicago. Medical experts, they say, are convinced that the rapid and unnatural motion affects the child's brain.

Saved Her Fnplls and Then the Brave Teacher Fainted. At Midland, a village in tho Rockies, a few days ago. Miss Edna Booker, who taught in the echoolhouse of the place, performed an net of heroism worthy of the highest commendation. One of her gcholars had a pet antelope, a sweet, doc ile little creature that followed ita mis tress to school, remaining quite near the Boor during class hours. One day it lay; as usual, near the door, lazily basking in the snnligbt, while the children pored over their stnd- ies.

Suddenly there came a light thud 2nd a Ecream. There, with his forefeet crushing tho little creature, crouched a hig mountain lien, savagely switching his tail from side to side and eying tha children. The littlo tots, wildly, ran to the farthest ooruer, huddling there in a heap. The teacher, although pale with fear, did not for a moment leso her nerve, bnt searched the room for soine means of rescuing her little scholars. Hanging on the wall near tho dcor was a shot gun, and she determined to obtain it, although to do so she had to pass the lien.

Summoning oil her courage, she advanced down the facing the savage beast, who stopped tearing at the antelope and growled ominously. Nothing deterred in her purpose, however, she passed ty him and took the gun from the pegs. The lien turned his head and curiously watched her as she retreated np the room again. The gnn beinpr empty, it was necessary to return to her desk to prccure some shells and load it. Savage from its taste cf blood, the lion left the antelope and prepared to spring upon the group of children.

He made one leap over the benches, which landed him in front the teaefcfir's desk, and, his eyes-catching sight of her, he changed his purpose, and swinging around was about to spring upon her. Noticing this, the teacher, who had been watching cr a good opportunity to shoot, instead of waiting for him to make the leap, "walked quickly np to him, and Eef ore tho astonished brute conld recover she placed the muzzle of the gun in his ear and pulled the triggers. The recoil knocked her over, and she fell to the floor senseless. The gun did its work, however, for tho lion's head was "almost blown to pieces, and the brute lay a quivering heap npon the floor. The children ran screaming down the road, and men hastened to the school-house to find the brave girl recovered, bnt wildly trembling.

After- learning the circumstances they seized a chair, and seating the. girl in it carried her, with the dead lion, through the town, cheering and praising her bravo act. Big Timber (Moii. Herald. PEARY'S NEXT ENTERPRISE.

He will also steam farther north and nndertake a series of investigations.

He will be accompanied by a party of scientific men and natnral history students, who will work in various parts of southern Greenland."

New York Sun. Bicycle Accidents In Londoaw Bicycle accidents in the crowded streets of London for the first three months of 1896 were but 184 altogether, 10 being serious and nono fatal. This rate of accidents, as compared with riders, is very much less than accidents occasioned by horse and carriage traffic in the metropolis.

This good showing gives point to the request made by tho wheelmen of New York that the drivers of heavy wagons and carriages be compelled to signal by bell or whistle when they are about to swing around a corner, as it is through the sudden turn of a heavy "wagon, that so many accidents have occurred. As it is the law in some continental that no vehicle may swing around a corner without giving warning, the absence of this precaution in American cities- may explain tbn great number of accidents both to pedestrians and wheelmen. Every great city should adopt all the precautions that have been found of value elsewhere, in order to preserve the right of all in even balance. Philadelphia Press. Shakespeare Up to Date.

"Why man he doth bestride the narrow wheel like a colossus, and we petty men walk under his huge legs and peep about to find ourselves dishonorable graves. Thus Shakespeare should have written, only he mistakenly used "world" instead of "wheel.

-f Gold sens. Beacon Office. Charter Members of Trinity Lutheran Church. Have Seen the Congregation Grow and Flourish. The observance of the quarto-centennial of Trinity Lutheran church was continued last evening by another interesting gathering.

The exercises were conducted by William Schroeder, who in opening the proceedings expressed the pleasure he experienced in being called upon to lead in such a meeting. With some preliminary exercises and the rendering of a vocal solo by Mrs. E. P. Otis came the presentation of the htstory of the church by J.

F. Soiberling. The giving of this history occupied just 53 minutes, but Mr. Sei-berling, by reason of his familiarity with the and the deep interest he has always manifested in tho church's welfare, was in no sense wearisome, but on the contrary it secured tho undivided interest of his audience from Beginning t) end. ome parts of it read more like a romance, with its lights and shadows.

While time had wrought so much in tbe growth and useiulness of the church, it bad also its pathetic side, for of tho IS charter members who first saw the venture permanently organized, only seven are living to-day. Of this number five were present la3t evening in the persons of Mr. and Mrs. J. F.

Wil.iam Sjhroeder. The other two, Mrs. William Schroeder and Mrs. John T. Good being unable to attend.

The zeal with which the work was prosecuted and the love and devotion to tha cause of its friends of 25 years ago can best be understood when it is stated that the beautiful structure as it now stands cost its friends the princely sum of $37,000, while the church a nee the wiping out of its first debt has been kept free from incumberance of any and every kind, and to-day stands lasting monument to the sincerity and fixedness of purpose of its early promoters, whose interest lias never waned, whose love has never grown cold.

Be aeon a I by aro faotors in team nnil individ- -I nal play without which no set of men can hope to win, though some of these may not be always apparent to tho pub-lio or even sometimes to the players themselves. One of the most important of these is known among players by tho somewhat fantastic name of A team as well as a player must first of all have 'ginger' before it can hone to add many victories to its credit Teams, like players, have distinct individualities. One ia a wide awake, lively, hustling fellow, playing- ball every day from the call of play until tho last man 48 out Another is a big, lazy, lumber ing chap, capable of great deeds when fully aroused, but losing many points by his lack of energy. The former kcep3 hustling just tho same, whether ahead or behind, and so saves many a game that might otherwiso have been lost, cr pulls many another ont of tho fire after it seemed hopelessly gone. The other plays by streaks.

"Today he hit3 the ball all over the lot, and wins with ease then tomorrow and the next day ho goes peacefully asleep and permits hi3 livelier opponent i-to walk off with tho game. And yet perhaps from a playing standpoint alono he may bo greatly superior could easily win if there wero only someway to keep him awake. But gin ger' in a team means that the players aro thoroughly imbued with a desire to win, and that there is perfect accord among the players and between them and the club management factor of successful team play closely allied to 'ginger' is enthusi asm. Indeed it is generally a result of the former. When a team of hustling players once get things going their way, they will often work up such a feeling among themselves as makes every man play as though inspired.

"How do you account for 'rallies' at the bat? A team that has not touched nn opposing pitcher for six or seven or eight innings will all at once get started, and then, urged on by the excited cries of the players and aroused by the aging cheers of tho rooters, will muke hit after hit, such as they could not duplicate if they were to take the ball in their hands to hit it. The weakest hitters become sluggers and every player seems transformed. It is not because tho pitcher weakens, though that, is often thoughtlessly given as the cause, but it is the result of the intense enthusiasm which they help to create and by which they are then seized and transported be yond themselves, nntil they play, not of themselves, but with the inspired and resistless force of its lufluenoe." Professional Golfing. The growth of golf in America is something astonishing. A few years ago a golf links was something that lovers of sport traveled miles to see, merely out of curiosity.

Today a country club is not considered in any sense np to date if it is not equipped for golf playing. In England, whence we borrowed the sport, the number of golf profession als has been multiplied tenfold within a decade. As at every links the su pervision of agreenkeeper is a matter of ludnie necessity, the number of these professionals has grown accordingly. Adding together the income ho derives from all sources, an English golfing au thority estimates that the respectable professional, on a good links, can some times earn as much as 250 or 300 a year. A few doubtless make more, and there is at least one crack professional whose income from all sources can hard ly be less than 600.

This is not a bad salary for a few months of work. "Don't let tho Baby Die from want of I Thousands of them succumb from this cause daily.

It is gratifying to ascertain the splendid condition of the Republican party in this hitherto Democratic state. A few years ago the man who dared to assert that Kentucky would ever be anything but Democratic was treated with scorn and laughed at as a poor political guesser, but now with a Republican governor in the chair and the party on equal terms with the opposition in the legislature, it can no longer be counted as a part of the "solid south." The glowing victory of last fall has led the Republicans to strengthen their organization and fit themselves for the contest of next November. They propose to increase the majority -given Governor Bradley, and so entrench themselves in the good graces of the people that Democratic victories will be as scarce here as the games won by the Louisville club. There was some Harrison sentiment here a short time ago, and, indeed, had the ex-president announced his candidacy he would no doubt have received a most liberal indorsement, but his re-r nsal to run only strengthened the candidacy of Governor and made him more than ever the first choice of the people. Kentucky the blue-grass state, is another which will help swell the majority for the Ohio man at the St.

Louis convention. George U. Martin. AN ELECTRIC LAMP-. to That Is Said to Be Thoroughly Prc tical ami Efficient.

A western firm has begun tho maim- factnre of an electric lamp that is war- I ranted, to burn, to give a light and to last. It is also claimed that it will not go out when a policeman happens to be around. -In its general appearance the new limp does, not differ much from, the oil liinps, except that it is narrower and fie tube which holds the glass projects farther from the surface. Tha body of the lamp resembles a small electric cell mere than anything else, and that is sition. Tho power which supplies tho light indicates how common, and handy electricity has become.

The current is bought in a solid package, and is known a3 a charge. Tho construction of the thafc onfl can ro Jt without difficnlty. The light is famished by a small in- fcandescentr lamt) backed by a powerful reflector. annoyances occasioned by grease, oil and: gas are done away There ia no smell and no smoko, and one charge of the battery is said to be sufficient to maintain the light for ten. hours.

Witch, and it IS asserted that llO road. When the. lamp is not burning, there is said to be no loss of electrical energy, and it is calculated that a charge, the price of which is small, will last a week.1 If the lamp is all that the promoters ib to be, it will supply, as the "a long felt want" New York. World. ODD WHEEL NOTES.

Ten tandems hava been sold in 1896 to every one sold iiv 1895. It. at the Seine and Buffalo tracks, Paris, that all competitors must wear black breeches. Syracuse has a.336 pound wheelman, who declares he never knew before what joy there was in life. Tho checking of bicyeles to prevent their being stolen during church services is distinctly a Chicago necessity, according to The Wheel.

A New York boy committed suicide by jumping in front of an elevated railroad train because his uncle would not buy him a bicycle. Golf stockirga lined with silk aro an innovation i hat will appeal to the wheelmen who cannot bear tho touch of wool next tho skin. There is a wheelman at Wabash, named Walter Swearingen. His tire was punctured, observes the New York 'elegram. At Pisa, Italy, two lamps are required for every cycle, and after dark a machine without light may not even be walked throngh the town.

Bicyclists in Paris are now enjoying the novel pleasure of riding to the top of a building 80 feet high. The track consists of a special gallery constructed by very small degrees. It is easy for a bicyclist to make the ascent over so smooth a floor. There is country where pacing is carried out upon such a scale aa it is in France. Ona firm alone has about 40 quads and triplets that are used exclusively for this purpose, and a whole army "of pacemakers, who receive $4 or so for each meeting.

WHEEL WIT AND WISDOM. For many people tho hardest part of learning to ride is the procuring of the bicycle. The cycle police put it in this fashion "While the lamp holds out to burn the vilest scorcher may return not too fast." The soul of the romancist Cervantes lives again in the writer of the yarn about equipping Cuban soldiers with bicycles. Somebody has said, "God might have created a prettier sight than a pretty woman riding a but he -hasn't thought it necessary. The free use of hot water will help a man in getting into condition.

A glass it before meals is a great assistance digestion, and another drink before retiring induces sleep. You can make the enemies of cycling more miserable by tickling their feet with the feather of satire than you can pounding their heads with the sledge hammer of coarse abuse. WheeL as This So, How?

i UVJ stronger argument- than this to con; vinco tnem that tueir prosperity de- pends upon his success. One of them said to me "Of course we want McKinley for president. Gov-: eruur Buu iiMu, UUU matt a gooa cmer executive people of Kentucky -will not give" him their support in his camnaiyii." in a room just oft from where Mayor Tod stood talking was Dr. D. Godfrey1; Hunter, congressman, politician, and physician between times.

It is he who-came within one vote of being, chosen United States senator at the recent ses- sion of the legislature, and he is promi- nontr. not rrnlv ammifr thfi mnnntaiim in the eastern part; of the str.te, where he lives, bnt in the other sections of this great common wealth as well. Governor Bradley is indebted to Mr. Hunter for much of his political success, and his riso from obscurity to bis present ex- alted place was in no small way the re- suit of Dr. Hunter's support.

But in-! this fight Governor McKinley is the Kentucky congressman's choice, and he is snpportiiig him more ardently than he ever espoused the cause of Governor I Bradley. i When I foxmd him at leisure he was i fatigued with the duties Which have been, heaped upon him ever since the campaign began, and felt more like rest ing than answering the questions of newspaper correspondents. It did not' take him. long to warm up to the subject, and Governor McKinley never had kinder words said of him than were spoken by tliis man in the private office of Mayor Tod. Hunter was but a few days back from Washington, and had made the trip purposely to assist in the canvass being fhade for his Ohio friend.

"You see that grer.t heap of letters?" he said, pointing to a half huiv dred opened envelopes lying uponhi.1" desk. "Every one of them is from som'i friend and admirer of Governor McKin- ley. I never saw such cnthnsiasin as there is for him among our people here, are singing his praise and urging his: nominatiou.V "It is not any one class of people, but 1 AWuwiiutun, uuu ucmiA'iALa Wt7ii, all grades ot society represented. It is a matter of dollars and cents, and.j a question of btismess and sound jndg-ment can not but impel any man to en- dorse his The effects of a Democratic-free-trade policy have been felt fully as much in Kentucky as in any other state perhaps in the TJuiou. Our great tobacco crop, always a source of support ami revenue to our people, has fallen olF until now it is but a sem--i blance of what it was under the last Republicau administratiou.

in order that it may be restored, tha people desire a returu of the protective policy, and they feel that In no better way can it be secured thaa by tho election of Governor McKinley." "But what effect will the candidacy of. Governor Bradley have upon chances in this state?" I think, or practically none. Of course Governor Bradley has many, friends in Kentucky. He has lived here many years, and is the first Republican who has ever been elected to the high office he holds. This in itself would naturally give some eolor to his candi-liacy, and make him much stronger than he might otherwise be.

But Governor McKinley is either tho first or second choice of every delegate elected in the state of Kentucky, and when the fact develops itself at the convention, as it will, that Governor Bradley can not be nominated, the Ohio candidate will receive the solid support of the state. I make this assertion upon gained from a careful canvsws and review of the situation, and I feel that Governor McKinley will be the choice of Kentucky at the St. Louis convention. Governor Bradley "was In Louisville the night that I reached there. On the same train with him came Mr.

Samnel Roberts, editor of The Leader at Lex-ington, and a stanch McKinley man. This may not have been the reason, but somehow or other they did not occupy the same seat, and there was no exchange of courtesies between them as they stepped to the platform. Governor Bradley was whirled away in a carriage, and Mr. Roberts went to the home of his friend. Mayor Tod.

The visit of Governor Bradley to the city was said to be in the interests of his candidacy and to ascertain the exact feeling here. He attended several conferences and talked over the matter with his friends. Evidently the outlook was not the most encouraging.f or the next morning he left for the capital giving out any HUlliurupiu wbiuv days of labor which have icome since I- of to by.
