Another child was very painfully injured last evening at o'clock while celebrating the Fourth. Celia, the 10 year old daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Henry Fadden, 420 Eighteenth street, was firing blank cartridges from a small revolver when her brother attempted to seize the pistol. The weapon was just then discharged and the load of powder hit the young girt squarely in her left hand, which was terribly mangled and burned.

Dr. F. C. Hall was called in attendance and dressed the Injury. It was necessary to use anaesthetics so greatly did she suffer.

THE GLORIOUS FOURTH. The celebration of the glorious Fourth commenced in earnest on this side last evening. Rockets and balloons were sent up from various quarters and a continual roar of small cannon, firecrackers, torpedoes and revolvers filled the air. Dealers in fireworks did a rushing trade and more of those kind of goods were sold than in many years. Soda water fountains, ice cream parlors and other places of business did a rushing trade.

Iipmmp rnnnTP inn onnnTPHni HL inn urn vimi uiru IIIIIUIIU VI UIUV IIIIU VI VI1IUIII1.II JIM CORBETT IS WORKING TOO HARD Friends of the ex Champion Think He is Doing Too Strenuous Training, Friends and admirers of Jim Cor bett are beginning to feel a bit nervous about his condition for his coming fight with Jeffries. Jim came back about three weeks ago from Los Angeles and has been at the hardest kind ot work ever since. He is quartered at Croll's Gardens and has for his trainer Professor Dare, the man who had charge of his physical culture school in the East. Every day the big fellow runs ten or twelve miles on the road, and after that boxes four or five rounds with "Yank" Kenny and Sam Berger, his sparring partners. When he feels that he has not done enough he works on the rings and horizontal bars for an hour, or so more.

As any one knows, this is about, as much work as the everyday fighter does a week before his fight, and here is Corbett" working like a beaver two months ahead of his date. Corbett's friends call attention to the fact that he has been doing light work for over a year on the road, in anticipation of this "go," and that there is no need of the arduous campaign he has mapped out for himself. Corbett is a natural born athlete and of a very nervous temperament, and when he is not working feels that he is not doing himself The same thing happened to him while training for the memorable battle with Fitz simmons at Carson. Jim never would stop working, and Billy Delaney, who was looking after his training, begged him to lay off a couple of days before the fight for a rest, so that he would enter the ring full of ginger and ready for a hard go. The warning was of no avail, however, and Corbett kept up his work to the hour of the fight.

All know the result. When he had Fitz helpless on the ropes in the sixth round he hadn't the strength to finish him, and gradually weakened until the Jeffries will not begin working until the latter part of next week. He has secured El Campo, an old picnic ground north of the city, and has it fixed up with a hand ball court and big "gym." "Jeff" says he has secured these grounds on account of the surf bathing and also to keep out of reach of the crowds which always infest his quarters. Billy Delaney has been over to the new grounds daily watching the work being done. He will have trained him before, his brother Jack and Fitzsimmons to spar with him.

BASEBALL NOTES. MeGraw believes that In Gilbert, his second baseman, he has a wonder. It is reported that Sammy Strang is booked for trade or release by Hanlon. It Is reported that St. Louis intends sending Pitcher Mordecai Brown back to Omaha.

Frank Hahn's pitching this season has not been up to the standard of former years. Hans Waener is the most interesting player in the business to look at when on the field. Umpire Johnstone has doled it out that a majority of runs are made with two men out. Jocko Menefee has only pitched three full games this year, but he has won two out of the three. "There is no way of agreeing on a basis of merger with the American league," says Col, Rogers.

Mike O'Neill is now playing regularly in left field for St. Louis, in place of Barclay, the benched one. Cincinnati and Chicago have turned down requests for a trial from Roy Evans, just released by Brooklyn. Frank Selee claims that he has the deal clinched to get Walter Clarkson after the close of the college season. Dan McGann, of the Giants, still suffers as a modern Job.

No one knows how soon he may resume activity. Hanlon's men are picking up. It is safe to back a Hanlon team to got deep Into the race sooner or later. John T. Brush announces that he will make a hot and winning fight for Outfielder Jones, of the Chicagos, next fall.

Dunleavy, the new St. Louis rightfleld er, has lost three qut of five games, but Is showing himself the real goods at that. The addition of "Tom" Daly gives Cincinnati the greatest collection of infield Methuselahs ever associated on one team. New York has six men above the mark in the batting Mertes. Biesnahan, Browne, Warner, Lauder and McGann.

Elberfeld is at present the only member of the New York Americans who Is batting above Even Willie Keeler Is way down. Frank Owen, of the Chicago team, who held the Washington down to three hits the other day, pitched for Omaha last season. Another good pitcher Would be a welcome addition to the Senators. Tom Loftus has one or two in view, and will probably sign thera. Tom Loftus says he was only kidding Jesse Burkett when the row occurred between them Saturday, and that Jesse had no occasion to attack him.

Jimmy Callahan, manager of the Chicago Americans. Is heralded as another Wallace. He is in the same channel that carried the latter to fame and wealth. Pitcher Mullln, of Detroit, and Outfielder Hartsel. of the Athletics, were each fined $10 and suspended for three days by President Johnson for abusing Umpire Carruthers on June 25 last.

Things are not pleasant for Tom Loftus In Washington. The fans cannot understand why the team Is at the tail end and since his recent clash with Burkett and subsequent suspension, the feeling against him has been more pronounced. May Come Together Again. SAN FRANCISCO, July 3. Provided Yanger's condition will permit It, there will be a return match with Eddie Hanlon.

Morey Levin has offered the youngsters a date in September, but on the request of John Herts, Yanger's manager, the latter has been held open a week, so that the Chicago man's condition may be more surely determined. During his training Yanger complained of a lame back, and an examination showed a slight wrench, but the Slasher was told that It was nothing more serious than a cold which had settled there. Trainer Jack Hanley, however, is said to have declared that curvature of the spine is coming on. Local critics believe it to be the result of Hanlon's kidney punches. Herts wants this question fully settled before he Blgns articles.

Yanger Is also suffering from a sprained thumb, sustained, so he says, in the 'seventh round, when he caught Hanlon on the back of the head. Otherwise he showed no effects from his furious pace of the night before. StsntBS Bigaitu of BTORZA. The Ktiig Yw Har Always A "I DON'T THINK THERE WILL BE ANY WAR" So Says Dreyfus, President of Pittsburg Club, and One of Pulliam's Supporters. NEW YORK, July 3.

"The baseball public have had enough of war, and so have we. I don't think there will be any I sincerely hope not." This is what Barney Dreyfuss, president of the Pitttsburg National league club, has to say about the baseball sit uation. He has been in New York while his club was playing with the' Giants and the Brooklyns. "If the peace agreement made at Cincinnati is lived up to," continued the Smoky City magnate, "there will be no trouble, but it must be lived up to on both sides. I don't think ithe American league wants any more fight, and I am certain that the National does not." O'BRIEN WAS MUCH BEST.

Defeated Carter in Battle in Which No Decision Was Given. PHILADELPHIA, July '1. "Philadel phia Jack" O'Brien and "Kid" Carter of Brooklyn fought a six round draw here last night. O'Brien had the better of the bout all the way through. The light was a hard, clean and fast one from start to finish.

Both men took punishment, but neither man was badly hurt. O'Brien was able to avoid Carter's onslaughts by clever footwork and managed to dodge nearly a dozen blows, any one of which would probably have ended the tight. FITZ WRITES HERMAN. More tickets for the Root Gardner battle at Fort Erie on Saturday afternoon had been purchased by outsiders than by lo cal people. Evidently the prices of 'seats frighten the Buffalo fight fans.

One would naturally suppose that they would pay $.1, $3, or $10 to see a contest of the character that this battle promises to re suit in than to dribble away ti at crack seeing cheap affairs. The sale of seats Is good and the demand seems to be for the best in the house. Manager Herman yesterday received a letter from Bob Fitzsimmons in which the lanky boxer said: "We need two championships In the Joffrles Fitzsimmons combination, realize that I can never become heavy weight champion While Jeffries cares to retain the title. I am positive he will put Corbett away in their coming battle, and I feel young enough and frisky enough to take away that diamond emerald ruby studded championship medal from the winner at your club on July 4th. So, Herman, you can send along articles to me at any time after the Fourth, for a contest with the win ner, to take place any time within three weeks or so after the Jeffries Corbett fight.

"1 will get plenty of good, hard work training Jeffries for the Corbett contest, and my friends can depend on seeing me just as good as I have been In the last ten years, if the winner of the Root Gardner bout meets me at Fort Erie or any other place. I am in the best of health and feel equal to several engage ments in the ring before I stop for good, "Your contest on the Fourth should be a dandy to look at. If I was anywhere within GOO or 700 miles of Buffalo I would go to see it, for Root and Card ner are a great pair of boys and very evenly matched. Jeffries sends his best regards. He will be on hand to second me if I box at Fort Erie.

"Yours truly, BOB FITZSIMMONS." Jennings to Manage Baltimore. NEW YORK, July 3. Wilbert Robinson, manager and catcher of the Baltimore Eastern League team, came to Brooklyn today to consult Manager Hanlon. who owns the Orioles. Robinson was hardly recognized by his friends, The cares of management have so worried him that he has lost 23 pounds.

He resigned to Hanlon the management of the team, but will remain as catcher. Hanlon sent instructions to Outfielder John Hayden, of the Orioles, to report to the Brooklyns immediately. He ap pointed Hugh Jennings manager of the Baltimores. Jennings will go to Bal timore tomorrow to take charge of the team. He will take with him Pitcher Pounds.

NEW YORK, July 3. In spite of the injunction secured in Chicago against George Davis playing with the New York National League team, the shortstop will go West with the team. The injunction bars him from playing in Illinois, but does not reach to St. Louis, Cincinnati or any other city. President Brush would not discuss the Injunction.

It was hint ed that the New York club, which holds a contract with Elberfeld, Bhortstop of the New York American team, might retaliate by getting out an Injunction against that player.

Proficiency iri a foreign tongue is hardly to be attained without first making your quota of ludicrous mistakes, says Queen. These are to be expected when you launch yourself upon the unknown sea of foreign conversation, and one must treat them as amusing incidents of travel.

An elderly English lady, seldom allowed by her accomplished daughters to air her German, broke from their affectionate custody one day, sailed into a shop at Bonn and boldly asked the astonished shopkeeper for "a little devil for a boys' school." The man replied, depresatingly, that he did not stock the article in question. It appeared that what she desired was a slate tafel, not the other thing, teufel, which is certainly not required in a boy's school. Some people might say there are usually too many oi them at those establishments as it is. Of course, one way to make youisslf comprehended Is, as everybody knows, to talk your own language to the natives in very loud and masterful manner. Apropos of this method, which has Its drawbacks, a girl was going upstairs to her room at a French hotel when she heard her mother asking the chambermaid for soap.

"Some soap, please. Soap, my good girl. Soap, I say," her voice rising higher and higher. "Bring me some soap!" very distinctly. a spelling it as a final effort at the top of her voice.

A German girl who was learning English was a constant source of entertainment to some of us. She translated the sentence, "No man can serve two masters," by "No one can oblige two gentlemen," and. wrote in a letter that she washed her corpse every day with cold water and did not try to skate because she had' two weak uncles! "Unpack your trunk" became with her "pack out your chest," while she calmly announced that her sister had gone to Carlsbad to get thin, and had lost 18 pounds of meat. Upon one occasion her teacher gave her a dictation in English, the subject of which was, rather oddly, the making of apple jelly. The girl read aloud what she had written, and presently arrived at the lemons "now add the Jews (juice) and boll altogether!" English, as translated for the use af hotels, restaurants and shops abroad, is frequently quaint and worthy of notice.

For example, such advertisements as "In this hotel the wines leave the traveler nothing to hope for," "highly rennommanated breakfasts," "fourteen wainscoted rooms and forty wto beds, light lnclused (sic), and dinner at every o'clock of the day," "good, plain, second rate hotel, best entertainment, best keep." Then, as you take your walks abroad you maye have, unless you are wary, "traveling keepsakes of Alpine genre" pressed upon you, or "nice things In edelweiss, as also broocheja and needles In Alpine execution, and nice things of buttons." At Milan we saw a notice In a draper's shop of "Man and lady hosiery," while a furrier advertised "Sealskin confection, gentleman cloaks, rugs as Royal tigers, bears, Ice bears, etc." Visitors were also invited to view the battle of Weissen burg, as being a "colossal round panorama, curiosity of first rate." Virtues of Ivory. Ivory, jsays Stray Stories, was formerly used as a medicine, but this was discontinued about the end of the eighteenth or the beginning of the nineteenth century. It was certainly prescribed in 1746, the date of the last edition of Castello's "Medicae Compendium." In, Schroder's Zoology, 1649, translated into English by T. Bateson, it is thus described under the heading "His teeth are only used In medicine, vulgarly called Ivory. The virtues It cools and drys, moderately binds cuts, strengthens the inward parts.

It is good for the jaundice, it chaseth away wormes, it is good for Inveterate obstructions, it takes away the pains and weakness of the stomach, it heals the epllepsle, drives away melancholy, resists rottenness and poisons. It is used In infusions, and the powder is given in substances. The dose is half a dram. Preparation: I. Burnt ivory, called spodium, and to distinguish it from the mineral spodium, spodium of ivory.

Mr. Frederick Davis of 505 Sumnef avenue, engineer at the Lackawanna Iron and Steel company, nays: "For two years there was a gnawing pain across my back which bothered me af night more than any other time. I had to lie In Jutit such a position in order to take any comfort or enjoy my night's rest.
