It is the fel- low who rides faster than you do who is a scorcher—and the one who rides a little bit slower who is a slow poke. But, then, even if you are not a scorcher, you want that bicycle of yours to run just as easily as pos- sible--and of course it must run easily if it runs fast. Probably, after all, it is just as well worth your while to ride a “scorcher’s tire” that holds world’s records, and consequently must run easily. There are all kinds of records, but there are just a few that are records, and they were made on Dunlop tires. For instance: 1 mile, by JW. Stocks, in 1 minute, 35 25 seconds." (That is faster than a horse can run.) 1 hour, by the same man, 32 miles, 1,086 yards. (Shows he can keep it up.) th Se Le Cy ot aimee asc And mir record, by M. Cordang, 616 rds.

LOCALS AGAIN QUIT After Having the Game Won They Lost It. ERRORS OF -JODGMERT AND PLAY The Catcher to Captain the Team 2 Hereafter. CURRENT SPORTING NOTES Today's Schedule and Weather. Philadelphia at Washington—clear, Baitimore at Boston—clear. Brooklyn at New York—clear. Cincinnati at St. Louis—clear. Cleveland at Chicago—clear. Louisville at Pittsburg—clear. Record of the Clabs. Clubs. Baltimore. The Washington team in its game with the Phillies yesterday demonstrated that, in the words of the turf, it does not care for a distance. Its forte is sprint races, and if the umpires and the opposing club had not insisted upon at least seven in- nings being played all would have heen weil for the locals, an@ they would have had four victories to their credit in the fifteen games they have played this sea- son. The local team started off a length ahead, increased its lead to five lengths at the close of the fifth inning dropped back three lengths in’ the sixth, and in the seventh was running five lengths to the bad. In that order it ran to the wire, the other team winning with great ease and pulled up. Errors, both of judgment and of play, were numerous on the Washington side yesterday, the greatest error perhaps be- ing the faflure to take Mercer out at th end of the sixth inning, when it was al parent to about every one that the Phillies had taken his measure and would flatten him out in the next inning. Other errors which were exceedingly costly to the home people were the seemingly senseless at- tempts to steal third on at least four occa- sions, the runners in each instance being easily thrown out. In fact, the coaching vf the home club was as far from good as is conceivable. Then, Wrigley, Reitz and Leahy made errors of play which were hardly less cost- ly. On the whole, the management of the local players was very discouraging, par- ticularly so when they had the game ap- parently well won at the end of the fifth inning. The Phillies, on the other hand, not only hit the ball hard, but their manager dis- played excellent judgment in replacing Pitcher Dunkle by Piatt at the close of the fourth inning. During the four innings he pitched Dunkle gave six passes to first and allowed seven safeties to be made off him, netting the ‘ocals six runs. His successor gave three passes and allowed but two safeties, not a run being scored during the five innings he officiated. Mercer began the game by striking out Cooley, Douglass and Delehanty being thrown out at first. Gettman, Selbach and McHale went out in order, and in the sec- ond Thompson hit to center for two bases, went to third on Wrigley’s fumble of Cross’ grounder, scoring on Nash's single to cen- ter. In thelr half of the second, Doyle sin- ged to center, and when Farrell had been given a pass, they executed a neat double steal, both scoring on Leahy’s double to center. The home people got two more in the third on a pass to Mercer, Gettman’'s single, Selbach’s sacrifice and McHale's hit to right. They got as many more in the fourth on Reitz’s two-bagger, Wrigley’s scratch and Gettman’s sing!e to left, Then they were ‘heard from no more, as far as scoring was concerned, Piatt, a left-hander, having them completely at bis mercy. In the sixth the Phillies began their on- sleught on Mercer, three runs being scored on Keitz'’s fumble, singles by Nash and Ccoley aad a two-bagger by McFarland. The fun was continued in the seventh, it being commenced when Gettman lost Deéle- hanty’s fly in the sun. Lajoie then hit to left for two bases, Thompson went out on a fly, Cross struck by Mercer, Nash singled to center, scoring Delehanty and Lajoie. McFarland got in another two- bagger, but was thrown out in attempting to make third. Piatt was then passe. Cooley sending him home with a two-ba: Douglass hit to center for two buses, going to third while Wrigley wu doing a juggling act with Delehanty grounder, and coming home while Doy! stood with the ball in his hand on first. McHale made his first appearance on the heme team, and made a favorable impres- sicn. He got ore safety out of four times at the bat, striking out once. He made one error, and did not appear to be so fast on his feet as Brown. He seems to be a comer, however, and eppeared somewhat nervous. Hereafter the catcher will captain the home club, Doyle having declined the cap- taincy. Score: ington.

Te What Frank Hough Says About Yes- “é terday’s: Game. Frank Hough, the ell-kpown base ball representative of the Philadelphia Inquirer, is with the Quaker aggregation, and sent the following notes of yesterday’s game to that paper: we “The Senators were gltogether too gallus in the matter of runntng the bases. Base stealing is one of the #ttrattive features of the game, but there are times when it is better to subdue the d@sire to shine in that particular. The going between bases was entirely too heavy for speed, and in addi- tion the throwing wing of;.Mr. McFarland had the propelling speed amd the accuracy of ono of Uncle Sam's twelve-inch guns, as is evidenced by his #éven fssists. “Billy Nash was a big factor in the run getting. He made three sifgles out of his Hive times up and “d¥ported himself like a gentleman anda seholar in the fielding ne. = “Barring third base,’ whete they look to be weak, the Senators have,a great infield. Make no mistakeabout that. When Doyle, Reitz and Wrigley get going right they will take no wash. from any of them. “The general opinion of the boys in the Press box was that Platt was about the right thing for a left-hander—and that's no wag. He had everything in stock that was asked for. Only two hits were made off his delivery, one by Mercer and one by old reliable Jim McGuire; who batted for Mer- cer in the ninth. “Wheeler and McFarland will probably do the heavy artillery work for the Phillies tomorrow. “There were four double plays, the last of which—Nash to Lajoie to Douglass—was a clinker. “It was rumored tonight that Earl Wag- ner was making a play to secure Joe Mul. vey to plug the hole in the Senatorial in- field. Sir Joseph has been in almost daily practice at Philadelphia Park since the Phillies have been at home, and he can play better ball on one leg than Leahy, who just now is the leak In the Washing- ton’s infield.” EARLE TAKES THE GOLD MEDAL. Spring Tournament of the Chevy Chase Golf Club. The Chevy Chase Golf Club began its spring tournament on the grounds of the club at Chevy Chase yesterday morning.

How It Robs the Stomach and What Follows the Robbery. Accordiug.to De Quincey, the supreme prize in life is the union of a fine intellect and a healthy stomach. Why this combination of blessings is s0 rare is exsy to see. The brain is selfish and the more active it is, the more blood it takes from the stomach. That the stomach may need the blood for the digestion of a tough, intractable dinner makes no difference to the brain. Hence #0 many clever men are more or less. dyspeptic, and some of them say, with Alexander Pope, ‘my life is a long disease.” The whole bodily machinery is thrown out of kilter by « disordered stomach. Sedentary habits, nervous stress and strain and careless living make matters worse. Doctors agree on some things, a Popular proverb to the contrary, notwithstanding. ‘They agree that the best medication for a feeble stomach is a stimulant free from any of the thou- sand and one mischievous substances that make so many “liquors” dangerous. The king of medicinal stimulante is Duffy's Pure Malt Whiskey, which you can obtain from grocers and druggists. It is immediately beneficial in cases-of impaired digestion, for it promotes the secretion of gastric juice and expands the net- work of tiny bicod vess:1s in the stomach so that ‘he rich blood fills them. You can get rid of that stuffy, heavy after- dinner feeling if you use Duffy's Pure Malt Whiskey. EQUIPMENT REQUIRED. War Department Gives the Mimimam of the Supplies. The War Department has learned with some dismay from the reports of its officers engaged in mustering and recruitiag the voluntesrs in the different states that very few of the National Guard officers have ideas as to the equipment required for troops in the field that conform in any measure with the standard which hard practice and experi:nce has established for the United States army. It has been found that in some cases a battalion was laying up enough equipment to load an entire freight train, while on the other hand som2 of the more enthusiastic and hardened vol- unteer troops proposed to go to the front emitting from their equipment many cf the things that are absolutely nacessary not only to comfort in camp but lo health and life itself. Therefore Gen. Miles has caused to be prepared by the d2partment exper:s a table showing in concise form exactly whut is necessary in the way of equipment of every organization in the service from a company to an army corps. This information is em- bodied in the following gencra! order issued today: ‘The following standard of supplies and equipment for field service is publisned for the information and guidance of troops in the military s2rvice of the United States. The allowance is regarded as the minimum for field service: Headquarters of an army corps—Three wagons for baggage, etc., or 8 pack mules, 1 two-horse wagon, 1 two-horse spring wagon, 10 extra saddl2 horses for contin- gent wants, 2 wall tents for commanding general, 1 wall tent for every two officers of his staff.

Headquarters of a brigade—1 wagon for baggage or 5 pack mules, 1 two-horse spring wagon, 2 extra saddle horses for contingent wants, 1 wall tent for the com- manding general, 1 wall tent for every two officers of his staff. Allowance of transportation for regiment of cavalry—49 wagons or 144 pack animals. Allowance of transportation for battery, light artillery—4 wagons. Allowance of transportation for regiment of infantry—25 wagons. Suppli2s to be carried in wagons per com- pany—1lU days’ field. rations per man, 100 rounds of ammunition per soldier, 250 pounds of officers’ baggage and supplies, tentage, grain for animals, utensils for each company mess not to exceed 350 pounds for each troop, battery or company; horseshoes, nafls, tools and medicines for cavalry horses, not to exceed 300 pounds; ta each soldier or civilian employe (com- pactly rolled in one piece of shelter tent) 1 blanket, 1 poncho and 1 extra suit of un- dergarments. Whenever the amount of rations or grain varies from the above, the weight to be carried per six-mule wagon may be in- creased or diminished, but should not ex- ceed 4,000 pounds, and for four-mule wagon 3,000 pounds, and, if possible, should be less per wagon. Whenever obtainable on line of march, full forage will be allowed all animals, th rate of purchase to be regulated by the quartermaster’s department. To be carried on the person or horse: 1 overcoat, 1 piece of shelter tent, 50 rounds of rifle or carbine and 24 rounds of revol- ver ammunition.

ON THE POST OFFICE BILL. The Senate Agreed to Vote at 2 P.M. Today. After The Star’s report of the Senate pro- ceedings was closed yesterday afternoon speeches in support of the amendment to reduce the compensation of railroads 20 ber cent for carrying the mails were made by Mr. Allen (Neb.) and Mr. Pettigrew (8. D.) Mr. Quay, in charge of the bill, moved at the conclusion of the debate to lay the amendment on the table. Th’ motion was agreed to—ayes, 40; nays, 8 Mr. Butler offered an amendment pro- viding that the government should own the railway mail cars and that it should pay to the railroad companies only such a sum as the railroads receive for similar service. Speaking upon the amendment, Mr. But- ler declared that the railroads ‘were maintaining a “crowd of lobbyists’ around the Senate, and even the Presi- dent's room had been used as a lobbying place by the railroad attorneys. The amendment was defeated without division. Mr. Allen offered an amendment author- | izing the Secretary ‘of the Treasury to ac- cept a lot and building in Wymore, Neb., to be presented by certain business men. The amendment was agreed to. A committee amendment was offered by Mr. Quay appropriating $50,000 for the es- tablishment of*post offices in military posts and camps during the present war. ‘The amendment was adopted, 7 AN AGGREGATION OF BARGAINS: At prices that will conquer competition.
