AN EAST VICTORY. The Phoenix Ball Team Puts It on the Woodlands. In the ball game at Woodland on Sunday the Phoenix team of this ci tJ had everything their uwn way. After the first inning up to the finish the result was never in doubt. When the last run had been chalked up the score s-tood 22 to 9, with the Phoenix on the long end.

Fitzgerald was a puzzle to the Woodlands, and up to the end of the fifth inning they had not connected safely with the ball, while the Phoenix found Clark an easy mark. Cowdtn, who caught for the Phoenix, held Fitz down in fine style, and at critical stages had him under his thumb. This was proved when In one inning the Woodlands haa three men on bases and only one out, he struck out the next two men to the bat. The millers played good ball, but neiar the end they were careless and the Woodlands, taking advantage of this, piled up runs with the help of a few hits and a number of costly errors. The battery for the Phoenix was Fitzgerald and Cowden, and for Woodland Clark and McNeil.

OFF FOR THE HILLS. Departure of the First Camping Pax-ty of the Season. A jolly camping party, composed of employes of the State Printing Office, left on Sunday for a ten days' trip through the mountains to Lake Tahce. They went by the "Lightning Mule Express." P.

The demurrer was interposed on the ground that the plaintiff had not complied with the provisions of the contract with the city, in that there was nothing to show where the.

wells alleged to have been sunk by him were situated, nor whether or not they had been so placed as to avoid pollution of the water. C. T. Jones and Edwood Bruner presented the argument for the city, and Grove L. Johnson and R.

T. Devlin represented the plaintiff. Judge Hughes took the matter under advisement. PERSONAL MENTION. Al LAndley of Son Francisco is vifliting the city.

WONDERFUL RECORD. That of Jay Hughes, the Ex-Sacramento Ball Twirler. That the work of Jay Hughes, "Our Jay," is appreciated in Eastern baseballdom ia evidenced by the following from the pen of A. Yager, clipped from the St. Louis "Sporting News" of the 17th: "The Brooklyns made a clean sweep 11 games in the series against the West, and have thus far a record of 12 straight, with more looked for at Baltimore.

They have won the last 18 games played at Washington Park and with New York next on the list, it is confidently expected that the string will be played out indefinitely. "The secret of this success lies in the effectiveness of the three star pitchers, Dunn, Hughes and Kennedy. This trio has pitched in 39 games of the 47 played thus far and have lost just 7. Of these, Dunn has won 12 and lost Hughea 10 to his credit out of 11 pitched, and Kennedy has 10 out of 15. The average of hits scored by oppon.

ents off the three has beeri as follows: Dunn, Hughes, 7 4-11; Kennedy, 9 9-15. That's the pitching that wins, particularly with a team of hitters and fielders such as this trio of twirlers have behind them. "Jimmy Hughes has certainly shown that it was worth while to bring him across the continent. He has been compelled to bow to only one team thus far and that was Boston, but the balance Is in his favor so far as the champions are concerned. Last week he had the Reds guessing all through the game, shutting them out with six hits, only four of which were clean drives." A BURGLAR HELD.

A. Resales Bound Over by Judge Henry. A. Rosales, who burglarized Schaw, Ingram, Batcher store in April, and who has served two terms in the penitentiary for burglary, was examined in the City Justice's Court yesterday morning by Judge Henry, acting as Township Justice.

Three hundred years ago, on April 25, 1599, Oliver Cromwell was born In the good town of Huntingdon, England. His father, Robert, was the second son of Sir Henry Cromwell of Hinchinbrook and grandson of one Richard Williams, who hadi risen to fortune under the protection of Thomas Crom, well, Earl of Essex.

Cromwell went to the grammar school at Huntingdon, a very Interesting institution, where the first seeds of puritanism were sown in his mind, and hia old schoolmaster, if he did not send Cromwell to Parliament, certainly influenced the future lord protector's Parliamentary career, says "Sketch." The sohool stands in the High street," opposite All SaiAts' Church, where the register with the entry of Cromwell's birth may be seen. Cromwell was born in a housa. in Ermine street. This housS has been rebuilt several times, so that, unfortunately, nothing of the original structure remains. A good many legends have grown up about the boyhood of Oliver Cromwell, but one thing is pretty clear, from evidence which looks that he was but an indifferent pupil.

It may be that Dr. Beard, who was one of the greatest scholars and divines of the time, was rather exacting. Cromwell left school when he was 17, to continue his education at Sidney-Sussex College, Cambridge. He remained, however, under the religious influence of Dr. Beard, who was a.

zealous puritan and closely associated with the Cromwell family. When Charles I. granted Huntingdon a new charter Dr. Beard and Oliver were made the first two magistrates. The only speech which Cromwell made in the first Parliament in which he sat contained a reference to his old schoolmaster.

Later on master and pupil joined in maintaining the freedom of the pulpit against the pretensions of the Bishops. What remains of the school is a small part of a larger building, which dates from 1187. Its full name was the "Hospital of St. John the Baptist," and it was an institution founded by David, the first Earl of the Sir Kenneth of Scott's "Talisman" the purpose of providing relief and maintenance fcr poor people, giving hospitality to the pilgrim and the wayfarer, and at the same time carrying on certain educational work. In medieval times it was no doubt the onlj educational institution, hospital and charity in the town.

All that is left now is a small building, which looks as if it had originally been a chapel attached to a larger edifice. For. some reason or other the building was incased in an outer shell of Elizabethan design, and it was only in 1874, when this outer shell was removed, that the original Norman structure was discovered. Almost the whole school was then taken down and carefully rebuilt, as nearly as possible after the original The late Dion Boucicault undertook to defray the expenses of restoration in memory of his son, who was killed in a railway accident near Huntingdon. As a matter of fact, Mr.

Boucicault paid the amount, nearly $4,500, so that it had to be made up by local subscriptions. The gable of the school fronts on the High street, and contains a fine Norman doorway, now bricked up. Above this doorway there is an arcade with two window piercings, and in the gable of this end appears a symbolic device of the vesica piscis. The front Is terminated by the addition of a bell gable. There is a bricked-up arch in the outer gable, and the outer walls consist of two great bays, also bricked up, except for the modern windows they contain.

Each of these bays and arches is in ai somewhat different style, dating from the Norman period. Indeed, the whole building as restored still retains its Norman expression. The interior of the building is only twentyfour feet long and twenty feet wide the smallest grammar school in Great Britain. The institution has a representative body of governors, of which the Earl of Sandwich, who is also Mayor of Huntingdon, is Chairman. The governors are just now appealing for funds to obtsin additional buildings, increase the endowment and establish scholarships.

Huntingdon is more divided about the merits of Cromwell to-day than it was when he represented it in Parliament. To one party he is the murderer of Charles 1., a traitor, a hypocrite; to another, the savior of his country, the Christian soldier, the national hero. When a few weeks ago it was proposed to get up some memorial of Cromwell, a member of thfi Town Council raid he could take no part in commemorating a regicide. It has been decided at a town's meeting, however, to erect a statue. The governors of the grammar school have a scheme of their own, and the free churchmen are satisfied by participating in the former proposal.

Various memorials of Cromwell are to be found, notably the one in the Houses' of Parliament, but London might easily raise a great statue of the protector. It is curious to find the references to him in Sardou's now being played by Irving at the London Lyceum. There he figures as a sort of splendid News.

No Male Descendants to Represent Many Illustrious Englishmen. No direct male descendant of the Lord Protector, survives to enjoy the tribute paid to'the memory of hia epoch-making ancestor, the last well in a direct line from "Old Noll" having been one Oliver, an attorney, the son of a worthy grocer of Snow Hill. In this connection it is interesting to note how many of our illustrious dead are now unrepresented by direct male descendants. Here Is an ample list of names of light and leading in literary history: Chaucer, Shakespeare, Spenser, Milton, Cowley, Butler, Dryden, Pope, Swift, Addison, Cow per, Goldsmith, Dr. Johnson, Scott, Byron, Shelley, Keats, Tom Moore, Charles Reads and R.

L. Stevenson, and of not one of these (and doubtless there are others) does a direct male representative exist. Turn from literary celebrities to naval and military heroes, to statesmen and to politicians. Sir Philip Sidney, illustrious in and in war, left but "one fair who died without issue. Sir Walter Raleigh's male descendants have long since died out; or have descended to such social depths as to be untraceable.

Sir Francis Drake and Nelson, the naval heroes of two great fighting epochs, died childless. The patriot Hampden's last male descendant passed away "a lonely bachelor" In 1754. General Monk, Duke of Albemarle, had but one son, and with him expired the hardly earned and newly acquired family honor. Though it is not infrequently assumed that the Dukes of Marlborough of our day are directly descended In the male line from the great Churchill, this is not the case. That splendid soldier's only son died in infancy, and his honors and possessions passed to his daughters.

The great Lord Peterborough had; sons, but no grandson. Illstarred Strafford married thrice, but each of his sons died without issue. The celebrated Duke of Ormonde's direct line ended with his grandson's death at Avignon. Clarendon, famous historian of the Rebellion, though he left four sons, had but one grandson, who died without male issue. Horace Walpoletvas the last male descendant of Sir Robert, the famous Minister, and he never married.

Bolingbroke twice made matrimonial venture, but had no child by either wife. The historic family of Pitt in respect of direct male heirs ceased in 1835, while the rival house of Fox lasted but little longer. Charles James Fox left no heir, and the only son of his nephew, the third Lord Holland, died childless at Naples just forty years ago. Edmund Burke had but one son, who died in early manhood, leaving his broken-hearted father to exclaim, "Mine is a grief that cannot be comforted!" As with the statesmen, so with the philosophers and scientists. Neither Bacon.

Newton, Locke, Davy nor Stuart Mill left a son to inherit his fame; while of historians, Hume, Gibbon and Macaulay were never married. Among our gTeat painters, Reynolds, Lawrence and the late Lord Leighton were bachelors. Hogarth perpetrated a romantic love match, which was fruitless; and Turner, the great magician of color and canvas, twice soured by early never married. Handel, who may almost be claimed as an Englishman, had no wife but his art Braham, perhaps our greatest singer, whose daughter some of us remember as Lady Waldegrave. I believe left no son; while of the giants of the footlights, Davy Garrick and John Kemble died childless, and the direct male issue of Edmund Kean ended with the death of his son Mal! Gazette.

From the day 'that a young man starts out to seek his first position to the end of his business life, his health has a world to do with his success. When a young man applies to a business man for a position, his personal appearance has a deal to do with the outcome. Personal appearance" does not mean dress alone. It does not mean exterior cleanliness alone. A young man may be clean, so far as soap and water will make him, but be disfigured by unsightly pimples, eruptions and ulcerations on the skin.

These are due to impurities in the blood. The blood becomes impure because it is improperly nourished. iMtead of receiving the life-giving elements of the food, it receives the foul emanations of indigestion, bilousness and costiveness. The reason that Dr. Pierces Golden Medical Discovery is the best remedy for disorders of this description is that it goes right to first causes.

It gives a man an appetite like a horse." It facilitates the flow of digestive juices. It corrects all disorders of the digestion, and makes the assimilation of the life-giving elements of the food perfect. It invigorates the liver. It purifies and enriches the blood. It makes the muscles strong and active.

It tones and steadies the nerves. It makes a young man look as he of body, alert of brain and clean and wholesome of skin. Medicine dealers sell it, and have nothing "just as good."
