THE SIRANGE STORY OF A WILL RECEIVED IN ‘THIS CITY. Mr. John F. Jarvis, the photographer, re- ceived u few days ago a package which had been taken from one of the water-soaked mail bags of the lost steamer Oregon.

Mr. Jarvis made affidavit to the condition of the will when received by him and then sent it on to the attorney in Olean, N.

The Washington Team and Their Game with the “Mets.” LACK OF PRACTICE CAUSES A DEFEAT FOR THE HOME NINE — SOMETHING ABOUT THE PLAYERS—THE NEW GROUNDS—NOTES FROM OTHER CITIES, The management of the new league ball team in Washington should feel highly gratified and encouraged with the interest displayed by the base ball contingent in the inaugural game yes- terday afternoon. All the outside seats were filled as well as most of the seats in the lower grand stand. It was perhaps somewhat unfor- tunate in the eyes of some that the home team was beaten by the Metropolitans by’a score of five to four, but those who have studied the ins and outs of base ball and realize its uncertain- ties will attach but ttle importance to yester- day’s game. The principal cause of the National's defeat was the lack of practice. ‘This is particularly the case with regard tothe battery. M. Hines made his first appearance here as back stop to Barr, and, although he may not nave given Universal’ satisfaction, he should not be con- demned. It was the first game of the season, on new grounds, and on a new team. The catcher is more apt to be affected by such cir- cumstances than any other player, because he realizes how much is depending’ upon him. The men on the team appeared to good advan- tage and deserve credit for playing an up-hill game. The score at the end of the sixth inniny stood five to one, a pretty large gap to be closed. The same clubs play again to-day, when the home team will produce its new battefyof Shaw and Glligan. % All the old members of the Nationals were roundly applauded when they stepped up to the home plate yesterday. Force, who is re gafded as a Washington player, was given & earty reception for old times sake, That Paul Hinesshould strike out three times yesterday surprised the audience more than anything else. No money need be wasted over him. Wait till he limbers up, Ut Davy Force continues to handle himself as well as he did yesterday the Nationals will not regret having secured him, He used to be a territle batter in the days of straight pitching, but of late years his batting has not Kept pace with his fielding. Last year, however, he hit the ball much beiter than in’several that pre- ceded it, and it is hoped that he is still on the improvement. There never was any question about his fielding abilities. ‘The’ lightning double play of yesterday showed what he can do nearly every time. ‘The outfield of the Nationals shows up well. Hines is well known here, while the other two, Carroll and Crane, are as likely looking a brace of players as can often be seen. All three are fine ball players, and compare well with any outfield in the country. Carroll dropped a fly ball yesterday, whieh surprised those whoknow im. ‘The new ball grounds came in for unlimited praise. The seating arrangements are firstrate, and there is plenty ot room for players and Spectators. Orr, of the “Mets,” however, did manage to knock a ball over tlie left field fence for a home ran, It is very unfortunate that the piteh of the grand stand seats is not greater. Unless a spec- tator gets a chair in one of the ‘first three rows he has great difficulty in seeing the batter. If the detect is not remedied in some way the open seats will be the more popular, at even prices, President Young, of the league, said to a Star. reporter that he thought the Washington club is 2 strong one. “I don’t know much about the old players that have been kept trom last year's team,” he said, “but the men from the league are ail good ones. There is no drift wood among them. The team is a strong one, and if the boys get to play well together, they will sur- prise some of the other clubs, I see no reason why they should not win tle majority of the ames on the home grounds. If they do the at- endance will continue good and no money will be lost this year. Of course the plant at the grounds can’t be paid for right off, but the run- ning expenses will be covered. ‘The Cincinnati Enquirer says that Kansas City has the weakest batting team in the Teague tis sald that Carruthers, the famous pitcher St. Louis Browns, will receive $3,000 for this season’s work. All the recent accessions to the ranks of the nerican association are men of wealth. John Hauk, the new proprietor of the Cincinnati elub, is worth more than a million; Mr. John Abel, of the Brooklyn, can sign his check for many thousand doilars; President Nimick, of the Allegheny club, is ohe of the richest men in Pittsbu id Mr. Erastus Wiman, propric- tor of the Metropolitans, is worth $4,000,000 or $5,000,000. ‘There is the most friendly feeling between the the players are jealous of each other and not Tauch good feeling exists between them.

Prof. Simon Newcomb’s Views on the Subject—His Lecture at All Souls’ Churen, Prof. Simon Newcomb delivered a very inter- esting lecture last evening at All Souls’ chureh for the benefit of the free night schools, on the subject of Practical Socialism and the Labor Question. The recognized ability of the speaker, the unusual importance at this time of the subject treated and the worthy object tor which the lecture was given all combined | toattract a large audience, who evinced ab- sorbing interest throughout. Prof, Newcomb began by claiming that noth- ing in the world is more practical in its nature and objects than science. A hundred years ago an Italian professor was experimenting on the | contractions produced in the leg of a frog when touched by two diflereut methods. The look- er-on would have regarded his experiments as too childish to be seriously consiaered by a sensible man, yet out of that beginning has grown the telegraph, the telephone and the electric light. But these inventions could not have been developed as they now are without mathematies as well as experiments. Ohin, the German mathematician, was the first t6 explain the laws of the electric current by a very profound and Intricate mathematical ex- | periment. The speaker claimed that as be- tween theory and_ practice it was the common man who was the theorist, and the sefentifie man was reailf the practical one. ‘The latter is practical becanse he found all his conclusions upon facts, and recognizes no statements which do not refer to facts. ‘The common man is the Victim of theories, “Country furmers still be- Heve that the quality of thelr pork will depend upon the time of the moon at which they’ kill their pigs. Coming’ then to socialism, it was declared that modern industry isa great communistic system, in which everybody is working for everybody else in the best way he knows how. Hundreds of people are engaged in making the shoes and clothing tobe worn and the food to beeatena year hence. Railways are engaged in transporting the necessaries of life to people in every part of the country. It would be tine possible to invent any system by which these Services should be better rendered than th are on our present system, The speaker di clared himseifan ultra believer in our indus trial system of free labor and free exchange as itnow exists. He spoke rather lightly of the railway trouble, believing that time would at ford the best remedy, and that no legislation except what is bad could be expected. ‘The trouble arose in great part from educated n who ought to know better, telling laborers that the industrial improvements in modern times had made the poor poorer as well as the rich richer, He drew an amusing picture of the bricklayer of to-day, with his finely dressed Wite and ehildren, as'eompared with his tellow ofthe last century. A rich man of 150 years ago could he have Seen the house of a modern bricklayer to-day in Washington would have thought that it belonged to a very wealthy man, rolling in luxury. It was claimed that the best way to improve the laborer in the future Was ‘to let things take their natural course. A strong appeal was made for sympa- thy between the laborer and his employer, Where this exists strikes and other troubles are unknown. As soon as employers find It to their best interests to treat their employes not merely. from a business polnt of view but as fellow men, with whom they have common ine terests and'common sympathies all trouble of the kind now experioticed would cease, Milwaukee Lager Beer.

During the past two or three days the police have notified the proprietors of barber shops throughout the city of the Commissioners’ order closing the shops to-morrow. Nearly all of the Proprietors have signified their intention ofcom plying with the order. Some of them say, how- ever, that they will not close their shops, and will risk the payment of a fine if there is any law under which they can be prosecuted. In compliance with an order of the Barbers’ union, @ majority of the barbers have inscribed on their windows (as a means of ORvInE: their pen) the following: “We close at 8 p.m. after April 4th”, and “Closed on Sunday.” “Maj. Dye said toa Stax reporter this morning that the police department would enforce the law in reference to the Sunday closing to-morrow.
