The “hard times” smoker originated in Chi- cago, says Bearings. It has been eopied all over the country. Some goody-goodies, backed by the highest theories, say it is a degrading institution, because, forsooth, those who at- tend weer old clothes, smut their faces and in- duize freely in “horsing.” There is no use fighting a theorist with theory. The only thing that will scttle him is fact. The fact is, hard times smokers are porslar., | Mr. ‘Goody-soody, what are you jooking to do about it?

Good Smooth Streets, The Birycle World speaking of asphaltum de- posits in America says: Where is the wheelman who does not feel his heart beat in joyful an- ticipation of smooth, clean, axphaltum streets? The many readers of the Worid will therefore, no donbt, be interested to learn that in the ter- ritory of Utab, within a radius of fifty miles of Fort Duchesne, the richest and purest deposits of asphaltum in the world are found. The asphalt is found in true fissure veins from four ty feet in width a timated to be 1,000 feet deep. ‘Ihe Iougth of the larger clams om three to iles, In Utah is calle . in honor of who fir ed the bonanza Compared to the asphaltum this deposit stands it is within com- rinci six y jake at Trinidad as in ratio of tey"to 0: arative ex: ce of & cities.

The Mititary Cycle “Jeanne C..” in the last issue of Le Cycliste, writing upon the subject of the military cycle, says: “It was in 1891 that the question of the military cycle was seriously considered, and during the coming year it will be finally re- solved upon or rejected. The matter is not exactly in my line, but to my small common sense, it seems to me that this military cycle, very pretty in times of peace, will be useless in times of war.” ‘ibis comi trom France, a country noted for good roads, will present an opportunity for our milits ing enthusiasts to study the outcome of the same ogitation in these United States, where bud roads abound, and where realiy good roads are tew and fal between. Let us continue ou the road im- provement before we agitate a matter which above all things needs the roads. It is @ pretty rocky road over which a horse cangot travel, but the cycle—nay, nay. A Woman Physician and Her Wheel. The New York Commercial Advertiser speak- ing of a woman doctor who uses the wheel to visit her patients on, says: “She docs not think | it necessary to wear any p: cular dress, and appears neatly attired in a dark striped woolen costume, a small dark bat aud a fur boa. The latter, of course, she discards when she entera ahonse, nor docs she use her cycle when the weather is very muddy, because she does not like the idea of arrivi ana splashed and soiled condition at the house of her patients. But on fine days she is to be seen regulariy gaining not vnly health for herself but fresh energy to as- sist those whom she vi-its." There is ly one fault to find with this wheelwoman’s demon- strating to other women the advantages of the bicycle as a pleasant and bealthful meang of Jocomotion, for every woman she converts to the wheel +be loses a patient, 0, perhaps, from a seltish point of view, she is ‘unwise in thus practically teacbiag cycling to women. Spent for Good Roads. Says the official organ of the L. A.

PLAYERS AT PRACTICE The Washington Ball Club Getting Into Condition, AND FIELDING WELL BATTING The Men Are Making Friends Rapidly, and Savannah Will Follow Their Progress in the League With Interest—The First Game —Manager Barnie’s View. ‘Special Correspondence of The Evening Star. Savanwan, Ga, March 18, 1692. HE WASHINGTON Base Ball Club, which hasbeen in practice here since last Saturday, is rapidly getting into the best condition,and when the boys get back to the capital to begin the league season the lovers of the national game will see a team worthy of éarrying the base : ball destinies of Wash- — ington and one which Will make the inrger cities’ clubs move lively todown. The club, in command of Manager Barnie, arrived Friday on the steamer Decatur . Miller from Baltimore. ‘The passage was a rough one and all the base ballists experienced the inconveniences of sea sickness to such an extent that they were too groggy to practiceany that day. Next morving Manager Barnie got his men down to work and t @ day since then, except Sunday, be has had them batting the leather over the field and skirting around the diamond. The base ball park is about a mi from the Pulaski Honse, which the headquarters of the visitors, and the boys wall it every day four times, 80 as to keép them- selves limbered up. WoRKISO WELL TooETHER. The team is working weil together and Manager Barnie is delighted with the players he has secured. No lamencss has been e: perienced by any of them and, Savannah climate just now is of that balmy, even tem: erature, neither too hot nor too cold, which @ blood of a base ballist and inspires him to the activity which never would be acquired ona northern diamond at this season of the err. bs ‘The Washingtons are a fine lot of gentle- manly fellows and are making friends by the score. Everybody likes them and Savannabians will take great interest in the progress of the capital city team during the coming season. Manager Barnie has made himself exceed- ingly popular and the general sentiment here is that Washington has in him a ball manager of which it can be proud, a man who thor- oughly understands his business and one who will ~ ‘the city the best ball that can be se- cure THE PrITcHEns. Kilroy is rapidly getting back into his old form asa pitcher, and Wathington may expect to see sume effective twirling from him this season. Kilroy isa special favorite in Sava nah on account of having been a member uf the old southern league, in which organization he made his fame. Gastright and Dolan are showing up well also. Both are speedy and have excellent con- trol of the ball. Gastright's up-curves are especially deceptive. McGuire and Milligan are doing well behind the bat. Dattee’s batting capacity is great. He seems able to pound the leather almost where he pleases. Milligan, Wood, Shock, Radford, Mc- Guire and Hoy, the deaf mute, are also batting ay Hoy is the favorite with the team, and he puts in his spare time teaching his companions the deaf and dumb alphabet. THE FIRST GAME. Tuesday afternoon the Washingtons played their first game with the local club, the Catho- lic Library team. Over 600 people went out to the grounds and saw the home representatives practically wiped off the diamond by a score of 16 to 2. The library team is made up of the best amateurs in this section of the state and also has one professional, Curtis, who used to play with the Washingtong, but is now in busi- ness here. They played good bail, but were no match for the capital’s representatives, Up to the eighth inning, which was the last, the Washinetons bad the localn shut out, but in this inring Gastright pitched rather a high ball, which McGuire let pass, giving the C. L. A. boys the only two runs which they got out| of the game. Dolan ind —— pitched for the visitors and Milligan and McGuire did the catching. The pitchers showed up to great advantage, seemingly being able to strike out a man when. ever they pleased. More than half a doze tumes the C.L.A. filled the bases without out only to have the next three men “die” at the home plate on strikes. Duffee made a great hit in the fifth inning, driving the ball to the extreme corner of the It was the longest ball knocked om Savannah's diamond in many years, and Duffee, in making his home run, almost had time to walk around the bags. The crowd yelled itself hoarse. and Duffee had to respond to the applause with several doffs of his cap. In the same inning Delan made a three- dagger, followe:l in the next by two of the same kind from Milligan and Daffee. Milligan’ was a long ball in the same direction that Duf- fee had sentit, and if the big catcher had a little Jess flesh upon bit he wouid have been able to share honors with Duffee for home runs. The base running of the big blonde delighted the spectators in a great degree, and, as he moved i Soon with his flesh perceptibly shaking, the crowd guyed him and yelled, “Kun, fatty, run. Foreman umpired the game, and his deci- sions were so remarkab!y fair that there wasn’t even the slightest kick. Manager Barnie hasarranged two games with Philadelphia for next Monday and Tuesday, and is also trying to arrange dates with Brooklyn. ‘The Washingtons have become such favorites with Savannah that the park will be crowde. at the professional games. MAXAGER BARNIE'S OPINION. In speaking of his team to Tue Stan's corre- spondent Manager Barnie said: “Iam highly pleased with the club that will represent Wash- ington on the ball field this year. The players thoroughly understend their business and are @ gentlemanly and willing set of men. ‘There is zo request I make that is not cheerfully com- plied with, and there is g harmonious feeling between the players which denotes the finest ball for Washington during the coming season that it hasever bad. The club is a great ag- gregation of batters, and any of the big city wawe which think they will have an easy time with Washington this year will be badly mis- taken.” BASE BALL GOSSIP, A Recent Sermen on the Evils of the Game —Notes. A clergyman up in New York recently preached a sermon on the evils of base ball playing. The statements he makes sound funny toa “crank” ora “fan,” as the ‘opponents of the game delight to call the enthusiasts, and it may be of interest to repeat some of his argu- ments. It may be well to learn what can be said against the cleanest athietic sport in the country. “Lam opposed to professional ball playing,” says the reverend critic, “because 1t practically makes dwarfe of men.” What he means by brings the whole matter right down tothe utilita- rian basis—what's the good of any amusement or what's the use of any entertainers? What's the of the arts, he might also ask. A pane dscineucaneesaye ing, neither does ectatue. “A ‘B = A HF Hei ! i 5 t i i | : | te £ i Hi t i ud | hours of business. Some business men have even confessed to a benefit derived from sit in the open air for two hours, free from b nese cares, and enjoying a mental rest that has replenished the energies worn out by a day of exertion. Now, if bell games began in the morning and continued throughout the day, as do cricket matches, they might be looked upon as hostile to business. ‘As to desecrating the Sabbath that is not an Inherent evil of ball playing. | The National League has never played Sunday games and the present league has scheduled none. In deference to what appears to be the popular wish in gome western cities Sunday games will be played there, but the popular sentiment in those cities should be held accountable, not the me itself, Regarding Sunday ball playing Fecorously conducted religious cirelessare by no means ail agreed that it is reprehensibie. What is meant by “generating idlences” is hard to say. Only a small proportion of the work done by ball players is seen by the pub- lic. ‘The long hours of practice the people know nothing abont. It will be found that the vast majority of ball players are employed in the months from October to May, the reason when they are not pluying bail. Good ball players when they lenve the profession geu- erally become good business men. Al Reach and Al Spalding were leading players in their day and they work among the leading men in their present business. Does any one doubt that when Ward, Irwin, Keefe, Anson, Brouthers, Kelly and any number of others retire from base ball they will become active and success- ful business men? The fect is that the very qualities which go to make a successful busi ness man are developed by base ball. Good judgment, quickness in decision, enthusiasm in one’s work, patience under misfortune—these every good ball player possesses. One might indict the game of whist on all the counts that have been made against a game of ball. It cultivates gambling tendencies Now, if there is anything it does not do it is that. In fact, thereixs no sport so free from gambling as base ball, St is true that an occa- sional small bet is made, but even that is con- trary to the rules of base bail grounds, and is no more chargeable to the game ‘hana wager on the length of » preacher's sermon is to be blamed on the dullness of his discourse. The excitement of a base bail game is mough with- out the necessity of a bet to give it interest, There is no inducement for a player to act dishonestly. ‘There is every inducement for him to be For that reason the sport is 8 clean one—cleaner oven than rowing and athletic sports where prizes or stakesare rewarded. Victory is its own reward. ‘The reverend gentleman asks: “What is the ambition of a majority of the boy: ountry?” It is » conundrum, but he thinks to be boss pitchers and catchers” is the an- swer. Would he have them content to be poor pitchers and catchers? He goes on to say: The other day the president of one club offered 815,000 to the president of another ciub for the trans- fer ova player and the ofter was feyected thousand dollars was the rum demanded, in aMOUnt equal to the saiary of the immortal Lincoln. think of it! A provessional ball Salary as the itu mortal Lance. Here he has been getting beyond his depth and has things a little mixed. It isa piece of base ball news that £15,000 has been offered for a player's release and refused. Who is the layer? ‘The gentleman has been imposed upon ty a humorist paragrapher. As to any player getting $25,000 salary, the idea is ridiculous. No one ever heard of such a thing outside of Puck or Juiige ox Life. Complaint is also made of the space given by newspapers to base bali news. He says: T have seen five columns of ba-e ball in anewspaper. Let a g:eat statesiuan spe: Issties, the papers ive bint tiret getsa quarter ion tures inches. Now,in the very paper in which these extracts from his sermon appears just about one inch is given to base ball. His sermon is given three tumes as much space. And this is a sixty-four- column paper and one of the leading base ball papers of the country. In the same issue fiv and one-quarter columns are given to mon—which merely shows that a newspaper prints what it thinks will most interest its readers. The games being played in the sonth by the Brooklyn, Philadelphiw and Washington clubs bave demonstrated in the most emphatic manner that the kind of ball we will witness the coming season will be the very best. To be released or suspended means the almost ermanent retirement of a player from the Slamond. ‘To play good bells player ‘mast keep in first-class condition. The players have recognized this fact since the reorganization, and the way they are hitting and fielding down in the country of orange groves amply demon- strates that each and every one is playing for his life, as it were. Bench warmers. will be few and far between this season, as all will be in fine condition. Take a natural-born player who has but to keep in condition to play gilt- edged ball. He becomes careless, takes the crooked path, aud it is only his reputa- tion of what he is able to do that keeps him on tho mine. Then, again, a club that carries from twelve to fifteen players must of course have substitutes. ‘These sub- stitutes want tobe assigned to the regular nine permanently und will playa game that will make the regulars keep around the top notch of playing all the time. The case of Shock of the Washington club iliustrates this. He was understood to be a substitute for the intield, but the way he is hammering the ball and picking up hot grounders justifies the belief that he is back in bis 1890 form, and Manager Barnie will be very loth to assign him to the bench. Reports from the south speak very glowingly of the local team and those who have seen the three clubs tow down there get- ting into sbupe declare them to be the equal of any of them. This is saying a great deal when it is considered that the Phillies are out in their full strength aud the Brookiyns almost so. The games next week with the Phillies will demonstrate the falsity or truthfalness of these reports and afford lots of tood for thought aud speculation. “amateur Day” at Chicago. A movement in amateur base ball circles has taken hold in Chicago that should become pop- ular in Cincinnati and other cities in the big league. It is culled base ball day and is now considered a fixture in the windy city. The Chicago Herald, speaking of the movement, says: Saturday, August 27, will be cclebrated in Chicago as base ball'day. The Washingtons will pitted against’ Ansons colts and Manager Barnie has practically connented to the arrangement. As last year, every ama- teur in usiform will be admitted to the grounds free, the exst stand being reserved for their benefit. fast ax organized, will b ule games for August 27 az invited to participate in a preliminary » games, the two leaders of the series to piay off the decisive contest prior to. the calling of the regular league game and the winner to receive a handsome prize. It is expected that the visiting club will donate a staied amount and the firm of A. G. Spaiding & Bro. will add a contribution of 3100 or its equiva- lent. “Buse bali day” became a Chicago holi- day through the efforts of the Heraid. There wiil Le a parade through the down-town stree headed by bands of music, aud a special train vgllcarry the youngsters’ to the south side grounds. It is probable that New York, Boston and Philadelphia wiil follow Chicego’s example and set aside a day for the amateurs. ‘The W ‘mn Players.
