Even the improved state of civilized society has not HUMAN CARRIERS are still numerous. Hod-carriers have but re- cently, and, indeed, but partially, been super- seded by elevating machines. The great progress of the time has been such, continued Prof. Mason, that no one walks nowadays, un- less it is a preferred exercise; horses, steam, and electricity lend their aid to whirl people to their Sa Ps + Repeat gd to carry a parcel; the a peice | arts, aay howe) pe etd en home in a special delivery wagon covered with forty coats of lacquer.

HANDS AND FINGERS, The paper then erjumerated the various methods by which the human beasts of burden perform their carrying tasks. First of all the hand, the right hand. In speaking of this Prof. Mason said that he has examined a great number of savage implements designed fo be carried in the hand, and that the proportion of those shaped for use by the left hand was not frester than 1, to 50; in no case did he find « ft-band female implement. Then both hands are used, after which the fingers come into play. Asan illustration of the use of the fin- gers in carrying Prof. Mason mentioned the summer-resort waiter, who bears his tray aloft on three rs. The baldric is next in order, slung over the shoulder by a strap the showider and hanging on e hip. way hunters carry game and travelers satchels. Then, still gfessing, goods to be carried are hung toabelt. ging on the arm may be called the retail method of carrying, and is used by farm ds, servants, Peary fact a large _ rtion of the people we mest in any place. hile a civili: being will twist his form so beset. geet that is hung on his arm su; ted by his back, a savage will never bo found doing so. Next comes the hang- ing over the shoulder, of which a good ex- ample is the universal sack of the negro vaga- bond, containing unclaimed pro) and other people's chickens. This met ‘is used by grain porters and hod-carriers, THE ORIENTAL PORTERS carry almost exclusively on their shoulders. A coolie’s average load is 100 pounds, with which he can make 30 miles a day. It is estimated that there are 1,000,000 tons of material moved by coolies in China each = Then both shoulders come into use, the 1 being placed around the necks, after which an easy progres- sion is to the back, which is the natural carry- ing-place of the burden. The soldier, carrying his knapsack and rations, is ‘a g example. Then loads are carried on the head, a process called “toting.” The negro isa domestic example and dairymaids are reputed to carry their milk pails on their heads, and there are many other illustrations of this mode of transportation. Certain tribes of Indians wear straw rings on their heads to aid in bearing and balancing these great loads. Pockets, remarked Prof. Mason, are scarcely worth gene Hie trans- portation, 101 e flowing robes of a China- man are cay ie al concealing at least half o bushel of pla ving cards, ‘acapacity that Laeoerres passing notice. carrying power given by these various modes is sagmented COMBINATIONS OF MEN, in illustration of which the vast worksin Egypt and other eastern countries were cited. Men also carry goods by traction, that is, by draw- ing over the ground. First, the arm alone is used, then a line is fastened to the object and to the person. It is held in the hand over the shoulder, wound around the waist or over a pole. The hunter drawing home his game is 1 et example of this means of carrying. Throwing is sometimes resorted to as a mode of trans ition, of which the negro method of han watermelons by tossing them from hand to hand is a fair sample. Dirt and exca- vated material were at it carried in sacks, which have been superseded by shovels. The great necessities and the differentiating pro- cesses of civilization for rapid and safe trans- portation give rise to the professional carriers, among whom may be mentioned carriers, mes- sengers, mail-men and peddlers. Insanity Cases. Yesterday Judge Cox, on the petition of the District Commissioners, directed a writ de lu- natico inquirendo to issue in the case of Daniel Luther, a well-known painter. Luther had ac- cumulated some property, but recently, it is said, by speculation, lost almost all he had and then showed signs of mental derangement, Judge Cox also directed a writ to issue as to Elizabeth Howell, who, under @ similar writ, was, in January last, declared to be sane. ‘The tition in this case is filed by Merrick T.

The course will be 3 miles over the national course, from a point near the foot of G street down to a point near the Long bridge and return. THE CONTESTANTS. Both Teemer and O'Connor have been hard at work since their arrival in Washington, tak- ‘ing long practice pulls twice a day. They are both in fine condition, and will enter their boats on Saturday as well matched in size, weight, and strength as it is possible. They will each weigh within a pound of 164 pounds. They are both young men, with a wonderful amount of skill and endurance. Teemer claims the cham- pionship, but O'Connor holds that he has no ight to it until he has rowed and defeated him (OConnor). Teemer could not go to Australia and row for the world’s championship under the circumstances without meeting O’Con- nor, and hence Saturday's race. Those who have watched the two men at work say that it is the toss-up of @ penny who will win, O'Connor appears to be in the best form. He has the grace of a Hanlan and like all Canadian oarsmen has a peculiar feather, not ei? turning the blade apparently until it en- ters the water. If ey did not know who Teemer is and what he has done they would be inclined to ick O'Connor as the victor, but they know ‘eemer generally “gets there.” He rows at least two strokes to the minute faster than O'Connor and is not as graceful in the boat. But practice pulls and a boat race are two very different things. Both men are con- fident of victory, and yet neither underesti- mates his opponent. WHAT O'CONNOR'S BACKER SAYS, A Staz reporter met O'Connor this after- noon, accompanied by his backer, Mr. Rogers, of Toronto. The latter expressed confidence in his man by authorizing Tue Stan man to announce that as the articles of agreement provide that the stakes of $1,000 a side may be mutually increased if desired, he is perfectly i to double the stakes at any. time before the race. Mr. Rogers arrived here Monday night. He said his man was a couple of pounds light, and had been working too hard, but that he would take easier until Saturday. He said thata bun ‘and fiftymen from Toronto would come to Washington in a private cars to see the race, and that anybody who wants to bet on ‘Teemer can be accommodated to any amount. Mr. Morris, one of Teemer’s backers, is here, and Mr. St. John, the other backer, is expected to arrive before Saturday. A large number of sporting men from other citics is expected ee Pees Mr. Willet’s Money was Gone, 3 AND JOHN SMARB AND JOHN NORRIS ARE ON TRIAL FOR LARCENY. ‘The Criminal Court, Judge Montgomery, yes- terday took up the case of John Smith, alias Smarr, and John Norris, two young white men, charged with larceny from the person of Joseph F. Willet, on May Ist, of $25, Messrs. Edmund Burke and A. B. Williams for the defendants, Willet testified that he came in from Prince George's county, Md., April 30, and solda horse to Officer Slack for $35, and afterwards went to the American House, where he got incompany with Smarr; tkat they were drinking and Smarr took him out to have some fun, and on a dark street Smarr seized him while the other man took his ket book and ran up some high steps, and to the best of his recollection, Norris was the y who took his pocket book. On cross-examination witness acknowledsed that he was quite drunk, and some things he remembered while others he did notremember. George Lackey, a messenger boy, testified | to seeing Willet at the American house, where Smith, or Smarr, joined him, and he went with them to various places, and finally left them on the Avenue. Officer J. D. Sutton testified that Willet com- | plained to him at 6th street and Pennsylvania avenue that he had been robbed; that ihe de- feudants and two others were arrested, and that defendant picked out Smarr and Norris as the parties who had robbed him. For the defendant L. E. Burkhart testified to Smarr being at the Baltimore and Potomac depot on the night of April 30. 5 The defendant, Smart, acknowledged that he was with Willet that night, but ed that he had anything to do with any robbery. [ie was arrested for disorderly conduct, and at the sta- ‘tion Willet said that he was not the man who had taken the money. At the American house Willet dropped some money on the floor, On cross-examination witness said that he waa arrested about three years ugo for robbery, but when the complainant became satisfied that he was mistaken he paid witness €1,000 and made a retraction in the papers, The defendant, Norris, testified that he was drinking that night at De Atkey’s, Godfrey's, and the American House; then started home, He denied that he saw Willett till the latter, at the station, accused him of the robbery. Never knew Smarr till he met him in the van. After arguments, the jury took the case and found a verdict of guilty as indicted, Not Wanted in Washington. “Jack” FARRELL, A YOUNG BALTIMOREAN, SENT HOME BY THE POLICE. John Farrell, a young Baltimorean, who is familiarly known in sporting circles as “Jack” Farrell, was in the Police Court this morning charged with being a suspicious person. Mr. Carrington pleaded not guilty for him. Ser- geant Diggins testified that the defendant has the reputation of being a professional thief. He has been in the city for about fifteen or twenty days and has made bis headquarters in the “division.” Witness said that he had re- ceived some of his information from sporting men. He objected to giving the names of any of his informants, but when pressed by Mr. Carrington he said thata man named Galway was one of them. “Who is this man Galway?” asked Mr. Car- “He keeps a club room,” was the answer. “Does he aot keep a gambling room?” was the next question. “They call it a club room,” replied the wit- THE EVENING STAR: WASHINGTON, D.C., WEDNESDAY, NOVEMBER 21, yur | while graund is cheap a site should be r, | Ottendorfer, who headed the ticket, the low- estat Takoma, The committee on city mis- sions recommended the establishment of a Sunday school and mission station in the north- east section of the city, near the terminus of the Columbia street railroad, and also estab- lish a like interest near the intersection of New York and New Jersey avenues. Mr. 8. R. White, in accordance with this recomm: had endation, been appointed missionary to examine the | cation field and recommended that the northeast sec- tion first be given a mission house. He had examined that part of the city and found that there was no accommodation for the chi to attend Sunday school, and thought that bought. He favored aa location the intersection of A street and Maryland avenue northeast. The report concluded by stating that more mission- ary work had been done im any previous year. A resolution was adopted favoring the pur- chase of a lot in the northeast section and the erection of a building, and this resolution was referred to the executive board, The report of the committee on education was presented by the chairman, Dr. J.

WHAT WAS DONE AT YESTERDAY'S MEBTING It NEW YORK. Mesars. Walter Hewett and L. A. Burket'rep- resent the Washington club at the meeting of base ball men in new York. The joint rules committee, consisting of C. H, Byrne, of Brooklyn; Wm. Barnie, of Baltimore, and Gus. Schmelz, of Cincinnati, for the Association, and Walter Spatilding, of Chicago; J. B. Day, of New York, and J. D. Rogers, of Philadel- phia, for the league, completed the larger part of its work yesterday afternoon. An endeavor was made by some few delegates to reintroduce the high and low ball system, but the majority | were against the idea. One of the most im- | portant subjects discussed was the position of the pitcher. During the past season some players complained that the pitcher was not far enough away from the batsman, and that a | Seg 3 or 4feet back would be more suita- { ble. A motion to that effect provoked a warm discussion, and was voted down. Since it was decided that an umpire should stand behind the pitcher he has interfered with rather than helped the batsman. When abats- ; man has hita fair ball, sending it over the pitcher's head and hitting the umpire, he has |no allowance and is compelled to run. The pitcher bas only to stoop and pick up the ball | in order to.throw him out at first. To remed: | this the committee decided that the atruck ball | constituted a base hit and gives the bateman a base when it hits the umpire. In order to improve the order of pitching | the committee has reduced the balls to four for jnext season. The three strikes remain as heretofore. The rule compelling a base-run- ner to run back to a base in case of a foul ti was abolish It was decided to allow eac | club the privilege of having on the grounds a | tenth player in full uniform, ready.at the end | of an even inning to take ‘tho place of any | player. At 9p. m. the committee met in conference with the scorers’ association, to embody in their report to-day to the convention, sug- gestions about scoring changes given by the newspaper men. The main subject discussed was simplification of the tabulated scores, It was generally ngreed that the stolen base col- umns be dqne away with and its record included in the summaries. Mr. Byrnes’ suggestion that stolen base should be credited wien a player succeeded in securinga base after a fair ball had been caught on fly was generally approved, sn agemgnise, A tore suman Election Figures.
