FIRST REGULAR GAME Senators Will Play the Norfolks This Afternoon. + LOCAL TEAM RECEIVING INSTRUCTION es Catholic University Defeats Johns Hopkins. CURRENT SPORTING NOTES Yesterday’s full game gave the Senators enough practice to last them until this evening’s game with the Norfolks, and this morning the entire aggregation was again lined up in the dressing room to listen to a lecture from Manager Schmelz upon the technicalities of the national game. ‘This afternoon's game between the Sen- ators and Norfolks promises to be an ex- tremely interesting one. Both clubs are in prime condition. Several promising yeungsters are on the Norfolk team and one or two veterans have been signed to steady the unbroken members.

Mercer, who will start the ball rolling in this afternoon’s game, is in fine condition, but perhaps a little too hght, but Manager Schmelz says he will be in perfect shape before the season begins. One of the most remarkable things about Mer- cer’s ability as,a,pitcher is that he is as gcod in the spring as any time of the year, and the batters that go against him the first month of the season nnd him ai- mcst invincible. “That stow bail of last year, which did so much execution, has been improved, and Mercer's winnings should increase about 15 per cent over last “Win.” has been in the gymnasium e past six weeks, ard his good condi- tion is attributed to this preliminary work. ‘This season wil] make the fourth fdr the OFio boy with’ thé ‘Washington geam, and as he has continually improved, it will be a herd matter to place a limit to his ability the coming season. Another remarkable thing in connection with Mercer's jong stay with the Senators is that he has failed to fall a victim to the many bright eyes that have smiled on him almost continuously since his inaugural ap- pearance in 1804. The Regulars’ First Game. For the first time this season the Sena- lors’ regular team was on the diamond at National Park yesterday, going against Charley Abbey's ‘‘Yanigans,” an organiza- tion made up of the extra men of the regular team and several local players. From a senatorial point of view the game was a beauty, not an error being made, and every player on the regular team get- ting in one or more hits with the exception of Selbach. As Al. can hit the ball almost any time he wants to, it is a good guess that he took pity on the opposition pitchers and refused to slug the ball, especially as base hits were so common. : The playing of the intield was worth go- ing miles to see, everything being done with a@ precision and quickness that con- tinually called forth applause of the sey- eral hundred spectators. Owing to the ef- fective pitching of Mercer and Swaim the outfield had very little to do, but to be in the swim with the infield, everything was gobbled up that went outside the diamond. Mercer was in the box for the first six in- nings, and owing to that puzzling slow ball, deftly mixed with speedy in and outshoots, but three hits were recorded against him, and those were made by Abbey, Wrigiey and Ashe. Hillary Swaim came into the game in the seventh inning, and but one hit, an infield bunt by Hodge, was all the opposition could do with the big boy’s de- livery. This boy Swaim will fit in very nicely with Mercer and McJames when the regular scason opens, and the indications are that he will be one of the regular trio throughcut the season. Bernard and Mace were on the rubber for the “Yanigans,” and met the fate of all pitchers» that are not in first-class condi- tion. Both these boys are local players of reputation, and have done commendable work at different times, but jumping into a game without practice against a band of players keyed up to the top noten es the Senators now are was bound to tell against them. Of course, the support given them was something horrible, as Abbey, Wrigley and Hodge were the only players in their home positions, but twenty-one hits, with a total of thirty-two bases, is a strong proposition to explain away. Abbey and German were the only “Yanigans” who failed to get into the error column. The batting of the Senators was the exhilerating part of the game. Everybody is fully posted on the fielding ability of the club, but an improvement is looked for the coming season, and from yester- day’s game it c&n be seen that the boys are making an «arly start in the batting DeMontreville led off with the first home run of the season, and, besides, secured three singles. Lush came next with a triple, a double and a single. This player has been, batting in practice from the left side, and had become almost dis- couraged over the results of his efforts, but yesterday’s exhibition immediately Placed him on good terms with himself. Johnny O’Brien secured two doubles and a single, while Mercer rapped out three nice singles. Cartwright made a double and single, and Charley Reilly got into the push with two singles. When the finalinning was completed it was found that the score was 2¢ to 0, a remarkable showing, when it is taken in- to consideration that seven out of the nine “Yanigans” are professionals. LOCAL GOLLEGIANS WON. The Catholic University Team Opened Its Season With a Victory. The Johns Hopkins University bese ball team does rot seem to be in the class with the college nines of Washington. It wes administered a crushing defeat by George- town, and the Gallaudet team also showed the Baltimore boys that it must improve greatly in its playing before it could hope to get a game. Yesterday the team was beaten by-the Catholic Univeraity nine by ®@ score of 12 to 6, partly on account of er- rors and partly on account of the bunched hits of the local team. The game was the first of the season for the Catholic University boys, and was played on the grounds of that institution. ‘The weather was a little cold for snappy (Continued on Eleventh Page.) HOW THE HEARING So That the People EARING IS RESTORED as Well as the Doctors May Understand the Seeming Miracle That Has Banished Deafness, Or. E LEADI If you will look at the above picture very closely you will see that it is taken from a section made by sawing right through the temporal bone of the | skull, which contains the structures that go to} make up the ear. You wili see that nearly all the parts of the ear are situated within this bony mass, and the bone, being a hard substance, does not yield when the car tubes become ingamed and swollen. This accounts for the intense suffering that gees with ear disea If you feel right back of your ear you will notice an enlargement or bump on the bone, and I want to tell you that this : bump fs porous and is connected with the middi car cavity by several channels, When the middie ear becones diseased the disease often © along these channels ara into this cavity, where abscess forms, and the disease is called mastoiditis. The Ear and the Brain. Any diserse that Ks the middie ear or mastold cavity 1s very grave and dangerous, be- cause these parts a ted so close to the brain. Inflammation in these st able to extend to the brain, and ev ot up in the middle ear causes the death of 30,000 people in the United States lor » serious ig disease of the middle ear cons‘dered, tt arness of parts of the brain, that life insurance companies refuse to insure those persons so afflicted. Tt was such a disease that destre the late Roscoe Conkling, and the y of Germany's erratic and peculiar actions at times are attributed to a chronte disease of the middle ear from which he suffers. What Constitutes the Ear, While cvery one knows that situated inside of the head is the organ of hearing, few understand what this structure is really like that grasps the sounds of nature and bolds these expressions of life and :tetion in its embrace until there is molded on the substance of the bram an exact copy of the sound as is mokled the mass of putty to the inner surface of the hand which grasps it firmly. ‘This fixing of sound upon the brair fs called hearing. ‘The various parts taken together which grasp, re- peat, and hold the sound ure called the ear, What is usually styled the ear is but a projection to guide sound into the organ of hearing, which is pearly two inches insite (be head. The various parts of the car are auown clearly im the large engraving, where they are seen to consist of the external ear and @ tube thot leads from it in- wardly to a curtain that entirely blocks the end of this tube—the ear drum. The drum and three little tones that connect with it and the cavity immediately behind the drum constizute what fs called the middle ear. ‘Those various channels, some resembling bulf circles and othe are filled with fluld into which dip the nerves of hearing, and these parts, taken together, cre called the internal ear. If you wili take the trouble to look you wil notice that there 4s a tube which passes from the cavity of the middle ear down into the throat. This Is called the eus- tachian tube, and it carries air into the deeper recesses of the ear. Without afr in the middle car po sound can be heard. The car neods air to convey the sound to the parts which imprison it and repeat it to the brain, the sume as electricity requires a wire upon which to travel when It 1s sent in the form of a message.

The most popular of Doctor McCoys writings on those dixen: the cure of which he hax become famous have been for the be tients condensed into « This Mitte book co: MONOGRAPH on DEAFNESS, MONOGRAPH on CATARRH, and bis MONOGRAPH on the SKIN. From a reading of the MONOGRAPH on the SKIN, the patient may all that he needs to k diseases of the ise throat, or the disease interfering with the drum of the middle ear, When, from any cause, air is « the Inner parts of the car the bei fered with, and the first sizn that a person warning him that his hearing is falling is tb notices that he hears slowly, then sounds muffled, become indistinct and gradually are lost altogether. With this there are often heard an. noying sounds as of steam escaping, or of bells ringing, or of water falling, which frritate and annoy during the day time and prevent sleeping at night. Such a sensitive structure as the ear, guard- ed as carefully as nature could cuard it against accidents and disease, is still quite subject to dls ease which impairs its famction. Careful statistics show that one person out of every three is nore or less deaf as a result of accident or disease. The closure by disease of the tube which leads from the throat to the middle ear is what produces nearly all cases of deafness, and the reason why so many remain deaf has resulted from the in- ability to reach the disease in the decp parts of the head with anything that could cure {t, and at the same time would do no harm to the ears. For centuries the doctors have tried in vain to ac- complish this result. They have devised all man ner of aparatuses and Instruments to cpen up the closed tubes, but the majority of these with af- fected cars who have submitted to the ear de measures have suffered considerable but in a few instances obtained benefit, w4 experience of most sufferers has been that treatment, instead of doing good. has c to grow worse, and has increased the deafness. How the Cure is Accomplished. All this talk about the ear, while very interest- ing and instructive, would amount to but little did ft uot tell that there been found a way at last of removing the cause of lost hearing and of restoring In the majority of cases the lost sense of sound.

Mrs. Besant de- lineated the distinction between evil and happiness. She said that man invariably seeks the forms of things rather than the spiritual originals that lie behind them. The forms of happiness and evil fill the world of life. The office of evil is to afford a comparison for happiness, which man is constantly seeking as the object worthy of his nature. r GG609S0006 0000008008000 00000 ———— “want” ads. in The Star pay because they bring unswers. iad eee Major Willoughby Released.
