The two ends in the National Base Ball League met yesterday afternoon at Na- tional Park and as a result the percentage of the Pittsburg club is increased, while that of the Washingtons is lowered. Charlie Esper returned to the fold, reaching Wash- ington at 3 0’clock. Manager Schmelz put him in to do the twirling, and for eight innings Esper pitched winning ball, but in the ninth four doubles, three singles and a home run, which resulted in nine tallies, six of which were earned, tell the story. Three old Washington players are with the visitors, Connie Meck, Donovan and Killen, the latter two or the team of 1892. For eight innings it was a toss up as to who would win, and therefore the game proved unusually close and interesting. In the first, Washington made one run, and in the second the “Pirates” scored two. They increased the lead by one more in the third, but in their half the home players tied the secre. Both sides got a mam around in the fifth and ciphers ensued until the eighth, when Donovan's boys made two. Then came the slaughter in the ninth, which wearied the Washington fielders. Washington was clearly outplayed, but they fought hard for victory. Tebeeu made @ brilliant running jump catch, and Smith, Donovan and Sugden also gathered in flies that appeared to be safe.

Unscrupulous dealers are trying to sell ordinary Glauber Salt or & mixture of Seidlitz Powder as “Artificial Carlsbad Salt,"* “Sprudel Salt," “Ger- man Salt’? or “Improved Carlsbad Salt,” and under other similar names. The Natural Remedies of Carlsbad cannot be imitated. “What nature makes man cannot improve." Artificial made wines will never replace the natural Juice of the grApes. Neither cam the natural wa- ters of Carlsbad mor the Carlsbad Sprudel Salt be replaced by the choap substitutes offered to a guileless public for the sake of the larger profit made thereon, by these unscrapulous dealers. No one would ‘buy artificial wines knowingly. Why buy the imitations of the Carlsbad products, when your health is at stake? The Carlsbad Sprudel Waters are a specific for all diseases of the stomach, liver and kidneys, and have been used with great benefit by hundreds of thousands of people. ‘The Carlsbad Sprudel Salt, vhich 1s evaporated from the Sprudel Water at Carlsbad, 1s an excellent Aperient, Laxative and Diaretic; is an alterative and climinative remedy, which dissolves tenacious bile, allays irritation, and removes obstruction by aiding nature, and not by sudden and excessive irritation, as most cathartics do. ‘The summer months, when plenty of out-door exercise can be had, are the most desirable for the “Carlsbad Cure.” Use the imported Carlsbad Waters, or if it is not convenient to use the waters, or when # more decided laxative effect is desired, use the Carlsbad Sprudel Sait.

Many Graduates From the National University Law School, ‘The annual commencement exercises of the National University Law School will be held at the Academy of Music on the evening of Monday, June 4, and, as in previ- ous years, they will be of an extremely in- teresting character. The honor of receiving @ diploma from this famous institution is difticult to obtain, as the curriculum of its studies is of a very high character and the young man who sucessfully meets its re- quirements must devote all his energies and vigor to the task.

Prominent Representatives From All Parts of the World—Great Gather- img in Exeter Hall. The international conference of the Young Men’s Christian Association of all lands, in Exeter Hall, London, is the thirteenth of its kind. These conferences are held triennial- ly. The first was held in Paris in 1855, and the last in Amsterdam in 1891. Intervening conferences were held in Geneva, London, Elberfeld, Hamburg, Berlin and Stockholm. The basis of representation is one delegate for each group of five associations. Exeter Hall on the Strand is in the center of London, and it has been, for many years, the center of religious and benevolent move- ments touching all parts of the world. It is the central building of the London Young Men’s Christian Association, of which there are seventy branches in the metropolis. There are about 200 celegates from Amer- ica, nearly many from Germany, 100 from Sweden and Norway, fifty from Holland, and about as many from ce. Nearly every civilized country in the world will be represented in the conference. Most of the American delegates will entertain them- selves at hotels. By special permission of the council of the city of London, a large pavilion has been erected near Waterloo bridge on the Thames embankment, and in it all the dele- gates will be served each day with lunch and tea. It is handsomely decorated with the flags of all nations. The Jubilee Celebration. This conference is called the jubilee cele- bration, because it commemorates the fit- tleth anniversary of the organization of the first Young Men’s Christian Association, by George Williams, on June 6, 1844, The most important meetings will be held in Westminster Abbey, St. Paul's Cathedral, and Albert Memorial Hall. The languages of the conference will be English, French and German, and many of the papers to be presented are printed in these languages, and will be distributed be- fore they are read. There are already about 1,000 delegates there. Of this number 100 are Americans. Prominent among the American delegates are the Rev. Dr. Theodore L. Cuyler, John Wanamaker, the Rev. “Dr. Henry H. Steb- bins of Rochester, Warden King and Her- bert Ames of Montreal, F. H. Revell of Chicago, C. J. Dockstader of Cleveland, Qhio; G. N. Bierce of Dayton, Ohio; W. W. Smith of Poughkeepsie, Lewis E.

A conference of the English committee and the representatives of the American in- ternational committee was held yesterday afternoon, with Sir George Williams, found- er of the Young Men’s Christian Associa- tion, in the chair. Sir George said that he felt great pleasure in extending a welcome the formal opening of the confer- ence tO his American brethren, whom, he new, all the members of the Young Men’s Christian Association in Great Britain Would learn to love. M. H. Hodder of London moved that the meeting congratulate Sir George upon his new knighthood and the freedom of the city of London. H. Thane Miller of Cincinnati, in second- ing this motion, said that in behalf of 250,- 000 members of the Young Men's Christian Association in America he wished Sir George happiness in the merited bonors which he had recently received. The motion was adopted by a rising vote. After a brief response from the chairman, W. H. Mills of London moved an expres- sion of condclence to the American associa- tions upon the death of E. B. Monroe of New York,the chairman of the international committee. Mr. Monroe, he said, had shown a strong grasp of the world-wide work of the Young Men’s Christian Association. He had intended to come to the jubilee meeting. The meeting adopted the resolution of con- dolence. Mr. Milis they asked the Americans many questions concerning the association’s work in America, eliciting detailed expianations from Thos. K. Cree, Robt. McBurney and Geo. A. Hall of New York and Robt. Wei- denhall of Chicago. The meeting was har- monious and interesting. see Norwood Institute. Rev.

The June pilot chart issued today by the naval hydrographic cifice forecasts the weather on the North Atlantic ocean dur- ing the present month as generally fair in |the central and southern parts. A few southwesterly and westerly gales may be expected along and to the northward of the transatlantic steamer routes and near the American coast. There will be consid. erable fog on the Grand Banks and to the westward as far as the coast, and also in the vicinity of the British Isles.

Trouble which had existed between the white union grain trimmers and the col- ored non-union men of Chitago culminated yesterday when John Church, a colored contractor, was shot by James McNamara, a union man, at the entrance of the board of trade. Meeting McNamara, Church started to’ run and dodged under a carriage, where his | assailant caught him, firing two shots.

Square Said to Have Been Bought for the W. and G. R.R. Public Printer Benedict yesterday appear-| There was placed on record yesterday @ ed before the House appropriations com- mittee, in response to the request of Chair- man Sayers, to give his views on House resolution 190, which proposes to authorize him to pay accrued leave of absence money to the employes recently discharged from the government printing office. Mr. Bene- dict believes in the justice of the claims of the late employes to that money, and he frankly told the committee that in equity they were entitled to receive it. He said the govertment voluntarily obligated it- self to give every employe two and one-half days’ leave with pay for every month of service, and then Congress failed to give the public printer the power to discharge that obligation. He recommends that the public printer be given the authority and the means to discharge the obligations of the government to the ex-employes, and that the law on the subject of leaves of absence be so amended that whenever, in the future, an employe’s connection with the office shall be severed, by whatever treans, his leave account may be settled in full. The committee requested Mr. Benedict to ask the first controller of the treasury to construe the leave of absence law, with a view of ascertaining clearly whether an obligation rests on the government to pay these The public printer will, ac- cordingly, ask the controller for a construc- tion of the law. In the meantime the ap- propriations committee will defer action on House resolution 180, If the controller's opinion shall sustain Mr. Benedict's view of the government's obligation to pay those c‘aims, the appropriations committee will no doubt report a deficiency appropriation to settle those accounts; and then in fu- ture the public printer’s authority to pay discha: and resigning employes for all leave due them will be clear. If the de- cision should be to the contrary, the dis- charged employes will have to look for re- Nef to House resolution 190, or to an amendment to the sundry civil bill, which will cover their special cases. ANTI-OPTION BILL. Delay Probable in Getting Action on the Measure. It will probably be two or three weeks be- fore the Hatch anti-option bill is taken up in the House. Mr. Hatch, who has been pressing the matter earnestly, found him- self in conflict with the committees having appropriations in charge, and it was the judgment of the managers that the appro- priations should first be disposed of. Mr. Hatch, after being in West Point for about ten days as one of the board of visitors, will go to Missouri, and it will be nearly three weeks before his return. This will put the matter off so late that it is prob- able that, while the anti-option bill will pass the House this session, it will not be con- sidered by the Senate before next winter. ————-2-—_ 21 __ Needs Looking After. John Cleary’s strange conduct near Fior- ida avenue and 7th street last night at- tracted the attention of Policeman Harro- ver, who questioned him concerning his identity and apparent troubles. “Oh, I'm a little nutty,” he said to the officer. “You know I jumped over the canal about a year ago.” John spent some time in the police station this week and when accused of being insane he generally says it's whisky that causes the trouble and wants to go. In the court cell this morning he spent his time looking through the skylight, say- ing he wanted to find his wife. Judge Kimball — the man need ae after and him for his rela- ves. work resulted yesterday in the dismissal of sixty-six clerks. Three hundred more will go by July 1.
