The annual cpening of Linthicum Insti- tute will be held Monday evening. October 11, at 7 o'clock. ‘The session this season is commencing ene week later than usual, opening heretofcre occurring the first Mon- Gay in October. The school has been run- ning regularly for over twenty-two years, and some of its graduates have made won- Gerful and praiseworthy progress in the world. ‘The course of studies for the session of 1897-98 will be practically the same as heretofore, though it is iikely that some minor cl wges will be mace. The opening night Mr. \C. Ballinger will be on hand to welcome the boys. The school is the only one of its kind in the District, and there are very few like it in the country. The tuition, bocks and material are fur- nished gratis; the only thing required of the student being regular attendance at studies.

Possibly the knowledge of the big fire in Washington may be responsible for the fact that, the employes of the contractor for sweeping the streets falled to properly perform their work last evening in this section of the city. The work is not half done, aud many citizens have complained of the condition of affairs this morning. While the sweepers went over the thor- oughfares in a way, the hand cleaners left an abundance of dirt lying in the gutters. Excellent for Fishermen, ‘The condition of the Potomac water is reported to be excellent for fishermen, and a large number have left for the upper por- tions of the stream in hopes of landing a fine catch of bass. The game fish are re- ported to be biting at a lively rate, and the early reports are very encouraging. Sev- eral fishermen at the police station hesi- tated to take a trip up the Potomac on ac- count of the muddy and dirty condition of the water which flowed through the fau- cets at the station, but it was found that this was not due to the general condition of the water, but to rust in the pipes at the place. Quality of Gas. There is considerable complaint over the quality of gas furnished by the George- town Gaslight Company. As Mr. George W. King expressed it, and his sentiments are voiced by a number of others, he “is paying more money, getting less light and more smoke” than he ever had since he has been burning gas, Rode Without a Light.

George Parsons Lathrop in Leslic's Weekly. Hawaii is undoubtedly one of the most remarkable instances on record of a small republic holding her own, with very slender military power, among the great family of In this respect she reminds one of Switzerland, or of the still smaller re- public of Andora, in the Basque provinces of northern Spain, which continues to this day as a self-governed territory, free from monarchism. The army of Hawaii num- bers only eight’ hundred men; but these troops are well equipped with modern weapons and: accouterments, oughly disciplined. Of the cight companies forming the army, or, rather, the regiment, iands, two—Company E and Company F—are regulars, always on duty and under pzy. Capt.

Of course, there are many natwe Ha- waiians who are white and are Americans. They were born in the islands, as their fathers lived there long years ago.

But Mac tcok his own counsel and dumped the ball in a way ihat the best third baseman in the business could not have got it. Tom Brown's catch in the first inning was worth the trip to Haltimbre. Kelley met the ball squarely on the nose as only Kel- ley can, and away it sailed toward center. Brown judged it nicely, turned his back on the ball and ran like a deer toward the fence. Just ag the little white sphere was going over his head he put out both hands and pulled it in, completing a beautiful play. The Baltimore people applauded as heartily as the Washingtonians. Catcher Clarke remarked to Manager Hanlon as he came to the bench: “The ball looks like a pea as it comes over the plate,” and the ather players backed up nis remark with positive shakes of their heads. - McGraw was on first in the fifth and tried to steal second, but was thrown out nicely by Farrell. Keeler refused to strike at the ball, and McJames assisted Farrell with a good throw. Jack Doyle slammed down his bat and said: “What do you tbink of that? Letting that pair of jays pull off a play like that on him. Take a brace there!” the latter injunction being shouted at McGraw at the top of his voice. And how the birdlets and audience did watch that Brooklyn score! Brooklyn had the best of it for two innings, but after that little consolation came toward the Baltimores. The Washington contingent yelled like Indians when the Bostons shot into the lead. Jennings’ stop of Gettman’s, hit in the seventh is one of Hughey’s copyrighted af- fairs and belongs to him alone. Every- bedy knows how Jake Gettman can get down to first. Well, Jake hammered a scorcher toward second and Jennings had to travel about twenty-five feet to get his hands on it, but he started with the crack of the ball on the bat and scooped it up on the dead run with one hand. A lightning throw completed the play, which beat Gett- man out by an eylash. Catcher Robinscn inquired of the iele- graph operator who was umpiring in Brooklyn. Turning to Hanlon, Robinson says: ‘‘What do you think of that, Lynch and Carpenter in Brooklyn. It’s a cinch Boston wins.” Wonder who Robby wanted to umpire in Brooklyn, O’Day and Kelley? As little pieces of yellow paper came fint- tering down from the press box telling of the battle in Brooklyn, Jack Doyle turned to the players on the bench and asked the Score. Receiving no answer at once, Jack said: “Never mind, I can tell the score by your fates,” and he could, as they were long and pinched. Mrs. Tom Brown acted the part of mascot for the Senators yesterday, occupying a front seat in the ladies’ section, but she refused to smile after the sixth inning. There was a large attendance of the fair sex at the game, but Mrs. Brown attracted unusual attention on account of her beauty and handsome gown. Joe Corbett called out to a friend in the upper tier as the club was leaving the field: “Cheer up!” But the case locks hopeless, as Boston seems able to take care of the Bridegrooms, while the indications have a contrary look at Union Park. The Washington “rooters” made so much noise that several of the Baltimore people remarked that they were worse than the Boston delegation. They had no band, but they yelled in unison and with voices that spoke volumes for the healthy climatic con- ditions of Washington. In the fourth inning McJames shot over one of his terrifying inshoots. Clarke was at the bat and made a quick drop, but the ball whizzed by, just nipping his ear. He went to first amid the laughter of the spec- tators; but nervy as Clarke is known to be, he had to pull away from the plate on the next turn up. Jennings was called out on strikes in the eighth. As the third strike came over and Hughey made no effort to hit, Hurst said: “What was the matter with that one, Hughey?” “I was looking at the Brook- lyn score board,” replied Hughey, and he walked away from the plate with a smile on his face and without a kick. Bresnehan and McGuire will probably be the Senators’ battery today, with Pond or Amole opposing them. Monday’s defeat seems to have taken all the life out of the Baltimore people, and the small attendance yesterday can be ac- ccunted for from this cause. The spec- tators will probably recover today and a big attendance witness the second game cf the series. The Baltimore people, as a whole, have great respect for the Senators, and the opinion was general yesterday that the Orioles would have to play great ball to get three out of the four games. the forest reservations to the United States, and numerous means for the protection of these forest reserves were suggested to him and have been embodied in his rec- ommendations to Congress, which are now in the hands of the Secretary of the Inter- for. A Star reporter talked to Mr. Hermann today regarding his observations on the business condition of the west and the recommendations he will make to Con- gress for the further protection of the forest reserves. Changes in a Year. “During my trip,” said Mr. Hermann, “I noticed a marked difference in conditions over the conditions that prevailed a year ago, when I went over the same ground. The industrial condition has changed rad- ically. Agriculture especially has received @ great stimulation within the past few months. The price of agricultural pro ducts.are 100 per cent in excess of those of the previous year. The wheat crop has not only yielded bountifully in comparison to other years, but the price of wheat is double that of last yeaP. California par- ticularly will be a great beneficiary of this increased price and increased yield. The Fruit Crop. “All other products of the soil are in sympathy with the increased price of wheat. Fruit upon the Pacific coast is this year meeting a remunerative market. With- in the past few years the prune industry has been of great interest to several of the states of the Pacific; to such an extent, indeed, that during the present year orders have been received by many of the prune growers for shipments to Europe. One skipper in southern Oregon received an or- der for twenty car loads of dried prunes, to be shipped direct to New York and thence tc Europe. This is a reversal of the traf- fic of this character, as formerly the prune ranked as an import to this country rather than an export. “The citrous fruits of California are shown to be very much more valuabie to the growers since the passage of the tariff bill increasing the duty upon such products. Another industry which seems to be greatly stimulated, not only throughout the Pacific coast section, but in many of the states east of the Rocky mountains, is that of the sugar beet product. Farmers are everywhere studying the economic side of this ques- tion, and those who have engaged in the sugar beet culture are showing that it wi!l yseld a handsome profit. It has been shown to be an industry which returns a larger profit then any other which pertains to the cultivation of the soil. Our climate has been demonstrated to be advantageous to the beet growth, and many portions of our Union contain vast areas of soil especially valuable for the growth of that product. In view of the fact that over $100,000,000 annually sent abroad for the purchase of sugar for our home consumption, this industry is now securing commendable at- tention among our people. Revival in the Lumber Industries. “I also discovered a great revival in the lumber industries. This is particularly ap- parent among the manufacturing and great milling concerns east of the Rocky moun- tains, especially in Minnesota, Wisconsin and Michigan. A great stimulus has also been given the wool-growing industry, a large part of the country through which I passed containing vast flocks of sheep, and I discovered a great interest in this industry. Everywhere wool growers are in- creasing their flocks and improving the quality of the sheep and the wool. “The mining of the precious metals has never before been so actively prosecuted, as I discovered in passing through the min- eral beit of our Unicon. The increase of the last year has been very much in excess of that of previous years on the Pacific coast and in many of the inner mountain states. Great attention is directed to the Alaskan gold fields, and a large proportion of the pcpulation on thc Pacific coast has availed itself of this opportunity to go to our northwest territory. Another effect of the Alaskan gold discoveries is the quickened commercial prosperity which is to be found in the larger towns and cities upon the Pacific coast. Manufacturing products, as well as the products of the farm, are con- stantly being called for from Alaska, and large shipments are being made direct to the Yukon. Thousands of horses have been sent forward as a raeans of conveying mer- chandise across the difficult pass of the Chilkoot and via the White pass. Already the banks and wholesale dealers are the re- cipients of large remittances in the form of gold. nuggets and dust, all of which is a forcible reminder of the truth of the re- ports which have come to us of the fabu- Icus yield of that precious metal in the Alaskan territory. The Interior Depart- ment has done much within the last few months toward accommodating the people who have taken part in the rush to the The game at Baltimore yesterday tween the Senators and Orioles was full of interest from beginning to end, the batting of the visitors being of such a nature as to make it so, while the fielding of the Birds was of the sensational order, and through this alone finally landed them the game by the score of 6 to 3. Fully 500 Washington enthusiasts went over on the noon trains, and throughout the contest made things lively with their yells of encouragement'and applause. Mat- ters had a very bluish tinge for the first four innings, as the Orioles had made four runs and not a Senator had reached home, but the Washington crowd kept things go- ing all the time, and when two runs were chalked up to the Senators’ credit in the fifth they made enough notse fer several regiments. In the sixth they had another opportunity to do a little cheering, as the visitors scored an adtifiional run, but after that enthusiasm came hard, and the last innings were played by the Senators with slight encouragement from their followers. Jimmy McJames was on the rubber for the Senators, and unforturately had one of his bad days, giving six bases on balls, hitting two batters and making a wiid pitch. Such work cannot win against a first-class club like the Baltimores, and although but seven safe hits were chalked down to the credit of the Baitimores, Mc- James’ erratic work was really more cus? ly than “safeties,” as it gave the fielders back of him absolutely no chance tu kill off safe drives. The Baltimore fielders did this act more than once, and for this rea- son the apparently hard-hitting of the Brownltes went for littl Jerry Nops did tapi viffling for the Palti- mores, and was at his it in tight places. Southpaw piteners -hava always been a terror to the Senators, and when they Pitch goed ball an2 ate given extraordinary Suppert it can easily be seen how the Sen- ators’ downfall was brought about. It would seem as if the Senators could hit the ball quite easily, unti] runners reached first and ‘second bdse,~and even nearer home, and then all the batting ability seemed to ooze out<at their finger tips. The Orioles beganscoring in the first in- ning. McGraw made a fifce bunt and beat it out, and the little thigd baseman landed on second when Keeler went out from third to first. “Mugsy” stole third prettily by a great slide, and then came home while Tom Brown was making a great catch of Kelley's long drive teeenter field. In the second inning two more came the birdiets’ way as a result of McJames’ er- ratic delivery. Doyle’singled to center and went “AH the way to third- when Jimmy made a horrible wild pitch. Reitz walked to first, but Clarke flew out.to Leahy. Nops surprised every oné by making a nice single to left center, scoring Doyle and sending Reitz to third. McGraw also walked. The Senators closed in, and DeMont made a pretty play by catching Reitz at the plate on Keeler’s bounder. McJames then soaked Jennings with a slow inshoot and Nops was forced home. In the third another_run ‘went for the Birds, and a base on balls turned the trick. Stenzel walked and went to third as Doyle shot a nice liner into right, and thea home on Reitz’s grounder to DeMont that forced Doyle at second. : In the fifth the Senators got into the game, making two runs and giving the Wasnington fans a chance to root in earn- est. Wrigley started off with a single to tight, and went to third-on McJames’ nice drive over Jennings’ head, the doctor going to second on the throw in. Selbach ham- mered a hard one toward McGraw and was out at first, Wrigley scoring and McJames going to third. Gettman also sent one ,to McGraw, and on his throw home to caich the physician, the ball londed on the Tun- er’s shoulder, and the second run was safely tucked away. In the sixth Tommy Tucker made one of his nice doubles, and after two were out came home on McJames’ second eafety to right. Then the Senators died away, and ciphers went to their credit for the re- mairing innings. Baltimore made two in the sixth on Keel- er’s double, a couple of errors and force out. The Birds then also died away, not being able to score a run in the next two innings. 4 Umpire Hurst's work was all that could be desired, the Orjoles refraining from kicking and permitting the-little arbitrator to attend strictly to business.
