The value of the eveving newspaper is not exhausted when it has given the news of the hour, or has helped the business man over the tedium of travel from his office to his home. Copies are seldom found littering the seats of steam or electric cars, 4s it is taken to the househoid for perusal by the whole family. Of course the even- ing is the time when it can be most thor- oughly read and discussed. Moreover, so rapid has become every medium of intelli- gence from world’s end to world’s end that the evening paper is more favorably cir- eumstanced than its morning contempora- ries for keeping pace with the genuine news of each day. The facilities for extracting the best essence of the world’s history for the day, and the world’s thought upon pass- ing events, have been brought to such a high state of development that it is enabled to keep even pace with daily events, fur- mishing a brief resume of such morning mews as may have been expanded by other sheets beyond real value and keeping the record clear and unbroken. When it takes its readers Into its confidence it is at a time when the cares and worries of busi- ness have been put aside for the day, or if not it helps to put them aside and enables the reader to keep in ‘eisurely touch, not only with the current news, but with art and literature and those other larger and deeper interests of life for which most busy people have small inclination as they @re about to plunge into the work of the THERE IS A CLASS OF PEOPL Who are injured by the use of coffee.

Until the sixth inning the score stood 5 to 1 in favor of the Wash- ington push, but the Pirates in that inning tell on Evans and sent four men across the plate. The game remained a tie until the last inning, when Selbach’s drop of an easy fly permitted a man to run home. The Senators made a great bid for the game in their haif of the ninth inning. Farrell Was sent in to bat for Evans, and, with two strikes against him, knocked one over Mc- Carthy’s head in left, easily making third. Doy! se of the Duke's lameness, put Mercer in to run for him, and then Selbach popped up a little fly, on which Ely settled. tuman, batting right-handed, next sent a liner into Davis’ hands at first, and Mer- cer, who had started for nume on the crack of the ball against the bat, was caught off third, the double play ending the contest. Killen, the ex-Washington twirler, pitch- ed for the visitors, and although hit hard, particularly in the earlier part of the game, settled down thereafter to such an extent as to prevent a run being scored after the fourth inning. He gave but one pass and struck out two men. Evans, on the other han@, gave three passes, hit a man and struck out one. In the fifth inning there were three Pi- rates on the bases with one out, when O'Brien drove a liner to left field. Selbach, after a hard run, dropped the ball, but, picking it up, shot it to Myers at ‘third, forcing Ely, who was on second, and then Myers passed the ball to McGuire, who ran down Brodie, who had started for home. The scoring was started by the Senators, who made two runs in the second inning, after two men were gore. Myers singled to right and Reitz, who had reached first, ran ali the way home on Donovan's throw to the plate, the ball bounding over Bower- 's head. Myers, neantime, had gone to third, and he scored on Wrigley’s single to right. The home people put two more runs to their credit In the next inning. Gett- man sent one to the left-field fence for three bases, scoring on Ely’s throw to the ¢ on Doyle's grounder. Doyle was de- clared out on an attempt to steal second, and then Anderson sent the ball to left center for three bases, running home on McGuire's single to right. The Senators’ last run was made in the fourth inning. Wrigley hit past second, but was forced by Evans. Selbach's single to right placed Evans on third, the local twirl- continuing when Donovan's throw svt past Gray. The visitors also got a run is inning. Donovan given a pa’ econd and, going to third on O' Brie1 single to center, went home on McCarthy's fly to Selbach. In the sixth the Pittsburg people tied the core, scoring four runs. Gray placed a ingle in left and went to second on Mc- Carthy’s single to the same locality. Davis" sacrifice advanced both runners, and Bow- ermun sent Gray and McCarthy home with a single over second. Wrigley then missed an easy chance for a double play by fum- bling Brodie’s grounder, Ely sending the two runners home by a double to right w center. in the ninth inning the Pirates scored the winning run. With two men out and O'Brien, who had singled to right, on sec- ond, Davis sent a fly to left center, for Which Selbach and Anderson both started, Selbach dropping it, allowing O'Brien to score. Then came the great effort to tle, ne by Farrell, which went for naught. ore: Washington. R.H.

Anson Manage the has been engaged manager of the New York Base Ball Club, and took charge of the team today. Pittsburg Lends in Snecrifices. Watkins believes in sacrifice hits. His Pittsburg team has made more of them then any team in the league. The Cincin- nati team is second on the list. Up until Sunday the Cine! ati team had only made one home run this season, while the Cleve- jand team, up to that time, had not made one single homer.

In Baltimore today. A great game all through. Evans ard Killen were hit hard. Swaim or Dinneen will pitch today. Being overanxious had a great deal to do with the loss of the game. Out-of-town papers charge Wrigley with Icsing the game. How about “soaking” the pitcher? Yell when you go for the ball, Anderson! Seil will go over into right after a ball if not stopped. There is nothing of the rec- ord-player about the German Senator. The Senators had the luck the first part of the game, and then it went Pittsburg’s way in chunks. Wasn't Farrell's hit a corker? McCarthy is a fast man and went after the ball with great speed, yet it got over his head. But for Charley’s lameness he would have scored a homer. Myers played another good game at third and batted well, but his being caught at third was a calamity. Bowerman’s experi- ence in Baltimore made him take the chance of a throw to third and the play was a great success. Baltimore plays here Monday and Tues- day and the games should be corkers. Weyhing and Dinneen should be in great skape for the two battles. The Pittsburg players said Selbach pur- pesely dropped the fly back of third base that made the sensational double play, but from the stand it looked like a big piece of good luck and a muff by the left flelder. He made a great try for the ball at any rate, and he received his reward by being charged with an error. Those two speedy ball players, O’Brien and Bowerman, lately secured from Balti- more by Manager Hanlon, contributed about 80 per cent toward throwing down the Senators yesterday. Their hitting was timely and fielding sensational. ‘The only criticism that can be aimed at Manager Doyle is for not taking Evans out of the box in the sixth inning. He had about decided to replace the new twirler, but Evans put on steam and seemed to re- gain his cunning. Big chances are taken when a new pitcher is put into the game. He may be good and then again he may not. Cimeinnati club returns home in first Place and can be depended upon to strengthen their percentage in that posi- ticn.

The ex-Reds' who have become famous in their own peculiar way of cap- turing the nimble penny at every: turn were Frank Foréman and George Hogriever. On the first eastern trip of the Reds in 1895 the Reds came to New York from B ston by way of the Providence line of boats. Foreman and Hogriever kicked on receiving only 75 cents for their supper. “Manager Bancroft.indorsed their argu- ment and raised the ante to $1 each. Ten minutes after the boat started Foreman and’ Hogriever were discovered eating a sandwich each and drinking water in an obscure part of the lower deck. On the trips east on Sunday Manager Joyce allow- ed every man on the New York team— about twenty In all—$3 for their meals for the day. “Did the Pennsylvania Railroad Company get all of the $60? Not by a jugful. About four members of the team ate three meals. About four others ate two meals and the rest made a peaceful raid on the several lunch coxnters along the road, eating the fare dished out in a hurry and planting about $2 each in their jeans. The hottest man in the party was Bill Joyce. The Giants’ manager could not contain his dis- gust over the conduct of his players. “There'll be no money making of this kind on the next trip we make,’ said Man- ager Bill. ‘I'il pay for the meals in the future, and those men who don't eat will n- receive a cent. I'll bet that on our next trip the players will spike themselves get- ting Into every dining car or lunch room we ace scheduled to play.’ ’—Cincinnati Times- ar. The uncertainty of base ball was well ex- emplified yesterday. The game was won and lost several times by the Washington team, and the contest was one of the most exciting seen here this year. A retrospect- ive glance will show several tricks that might have been easily turned in favor of Doyle's men, but they all went against them. For instance, Wrigley’s fumble of Brodie’s grounder in the sixth cost two runs. In Washington's half of that inning it looked a sure thing for Washington, with Wrigley and Myers on second and third, respectively, and no one out. If Myers hadn't been caught off third, by taking an unnecessarily long lead, the chances were almost sure for a run. Evans was at the bat when this disastrous mistake was made. If he bad been replaced by Charley Farrell that reliable player would have stood a good show of bringing In a run by knocking the ball out of the diamond be- fore Myers was caught. But Evans struck out and Wrigley was caught trying to steal third, and a cipher was scored against the home team. In the last ‘inning the Sena- tors might have robbed the visitors of vic- tory but for Selbach’s;bad judgment. But all these ifs are what,makes the game of so much interest $ LADIES ¢ ER THE LINKS.

The fashionable world was largely in evi- dence at the golf link#'of the Chevy Chase Citb yesterday afternoon, the feature of attraction being the ‘ladies’ medal handi- cap match for a handsome cup over a nine- hele course.

Steps Being Taken Preparatory to the Woman's Congress, After the adjournment of the woman's ecngress in Philadelphia many of the prominent women teachers and players of the country visited Washington. After be- ing entertained by the Washington Whist Club, .Dr. and Mrs. Walls and others, they left the city with a different impression of the game as played in Washington, and which is constantly misrepresented by many whisters throughout the country. Mrs. Jenks, the justly celebrated writer, had an interesting column in last Sunday's Chicago Inter-Ocean,":in which many prominent persons were mentioned as playing good whist, among them Senator ‘Thurston, Mr. Gage, Secretary of the Treasury, Chief Austin of the bureau of statistics, and others, and yet Mrs. Jenks has not struck the keynote of the Wash- ington game as played and taught by ex- ample and analysis, by such players as Wooten, Barrick, Low and Bingham. Their furnishes so many chances for bril- liant underplay that it is only players of high caliber who know the defense of their game intimately and can place the last four cards as accurately as the regulation long suit player, when their game is play- ed. Mrs. Jenks met Senator Gallinger, Gen. Grant, Gen. Saxton and many rep- resentative players and is loud in her praise of the play of the Washington whisters. This is evidenced in the lesson she gives which is based on one of the hands played at one of the meetings in- augurated by Mrs. Hawley for the purpose of bringing together the strongest women whist players of Washington, preparatory to the meet of the next congress, to be held next April, Miss Clapp, Mrs. Waldo- Adams and other visitors have compli- mented the move made by Mrs. Hawiey, and with such able assistants as Mrs, Leech, Mrs. McCrea and a score of others, including the Baltimore players of both sexes, Washington will be able to offer the best services ever tendered a whist con- vention, and the committee which will meet at Boston July 9 will be favorably impressed with the initial steps to make the third woman's congress a great suc- cess. The eighth congress of the . American Whist League meets at Boston July 11, and will close the following Saturday. No doubt the largest attendance that ever greeted a whist convention will be pres- ent. Washington wil},be,weakened by the loss of Capt. Carr Hut. Wooten of the signal corps, but the C. Bi.

THE DISTRICT BOYS AT TAMPA Pleasantly Situated in Camp on the Beach. 2 es officer of the Ist Regiment of Infantry, District of Columbia Volunteers, a few mo- ments ago. His face was beaming. The reference was not to the weather. The officer's expression was due solely to the fact that the paymaster was in camp. Further than that the important individual was doing business, assisted by his clerk. It is indeed-a happy day for the Wash- ington representation in the volunteer army, for most of the officers and the ma- icrity of the men had reached that state mcst clearly expressed as “dead broke.” The expenses of all, particularly during the Gays of organization, muster-in and prepa- ration to leave home for an indefinite per- lod, were by no means small. Therefore, the distribution of crisp new treasury notes and shining silver coin had the ef- fect of making the 8th of June a gala day in the camp of the Ist District of Colum- bia. For a short period at least the regi- ment will be on easy street. INTERESTINGINCIDEN1TS —_—_>+—_—__. Special From a Staff Correspondent.

WEST END CYCLE CO., Karl Von Rodenstein, Manager, 730 15th St., above Riggs’ Bank. ; CLL LLL LLL LALLA POC ot being Work of the Paymaster. ‘The paymaster had been expected to put in an appearance for three days past. The pay rolis, signed in triplicate, were realy the first of the week. {t was hoped that the eagerly swaited official would call yesterday, but durirg the afterncon a com- ruunication was received at headquarters annourcing that he would be on hand, without fali, this morning. Promptly at 9 o'clock a wagon, drawn by two crew up in front of Col., Harries’ te passengers were the paymaster, h’s © rk and two enlisted men of the regular sery- ice, armed with lcaded Krag-Jorgenson rifles and provided with belts that bristled with czrtridges. On the floor the vehicle rested a steel safe. A wall tent was pitched in the shade of a iree just as the bugier at headq ters sound: recall from morning drill. The payma: estabtished his headquarters in (Lis and opening the Piled a with packages cf In less than five minutes twelve compar the men wearing belts and bayonets, in line as near the tent as was po: Col. Harries and the officers of the regi- mental and battalion field and staff were first paid. The regimental sioned staff was next in line. Then followed the companies in the order of seniority of the captains. Each captain called his men to the tent in alp’ order. The money was first counted paymaster, next by his clerk, after which it was handed to the recipient. The paying off consumed several hours, the pay being only to cover the time from the date of muster-in to May 31. After receiving their money many of the officers hastened away to send remittances home and settle obli- gations. The wish of all is that the next pay day may not delay unnecessarily in reaching the Ist District of Columbia Regi- ment, wherever it may chance %o be. Pleasantly Situated. Prepared to proceed anywhere on an hour’s notice, the regiment may be said to be pleasantly situated here at Tampa. On the supposition that departure from the shores of the United States was to occur ere this, shelter tents—commonly called “dog” or “pup” tents—were pitched, the standard canvas being made ready for im- mediate shipment. i Say what you may, dog tents are not as| $ comfortable as they might be. The camp is located in the sand, within fifty yards from the shores of Tampa bay, and practically the city limits. It requires a walk of only five | % minutes to reach the Tampa.

A Glimpse of Social Life. The regiment reached Tampa late Jast Saturday afternoon. During the evening Colonel Harries and several of the officers visited the superb Tampa Bay Hotel. This hostelry is the center of the social whirl. General Miles and staff and the military and naval representatives of foreign gov- ernments have established headquarters there. For several hours the District regi- ment officers mingled in society. They rubbed elbows with major generals, con- versed with beautiful women and were in- troduced to foreigners of prominence, at- tired in gaudy uniforms. The contrast to this splendor and elegance struck me forci- bly some time later, after the officers had returned to camp and retired. Colonel Har- ries and his adjutant, quartermaster and chaplain were stretched on an improvised couch made of several narrow bales of hay in the open air. All alone, on another bale of hay, was Major Hine. Others of the officers were reclining on piles of straw near the horses. Thus they passed the night. It is said that the popular chap- lain, Captain George F. Dudley, stirred about daybreak, raised on an elbow and, after realizing where he was, remarked aloud to himself: ““This sporting life is not what it’s cracked up to be.” Wall tents were pitched Sunday for the regimental staff officers, while the shelter tents for the battalion field and staff and line officers were placed in position as soon as they arrived.
