The great national leagues of Amer- n the basebsil season today and from mow on the fans will be alert and slive to the game in all parts of the amery; and lot us say that sccurate reports will constantly be found upon The Bulletin's sporting page. The sixteen nines In the National and American leagues enermous Investment, and the large sums of momey expended on spring trips to the south, for nmew playe and those classed as veterans, and omier causes of expense, all g0 to show how much the American public will pay for its summer amusement, and pay for it willmgly. No other sport @raws so heavily on the finan- cial resources of the people, and no other game can thrill the citizens of all the states as baseball Americans must have their baseball end it Is significant to note that the game grows in pepulsrity each year, and that the grade of bell played is con- stantly improving. There ars more leagues than ever, and the clubs in the various leagues, large and small, are believed at this date to be better stocked with better playing material than ever. Basebail 18 a great game, for It makes members of congress run away from business as well as the kid rum away from school, and we suspect ed- ltors may be caught neglecting thelr business and doctors their patients in consequence of §t. The reports will be meat and drink to thousands until the end of the seasom. THE CENSUS ENUMERATORS. The census enumerators are to e let loose upon the eountry Friday and in the following two weeks a hundred thousand men will determine whether the population of this country 1is stghty-five or ninety million souls. The questions to be asked number about three dozen and are decldedly personal, and would be impertinent ir asked by any ome except a govem- ment delegate armed with power to collect the information wanted. Amn will not enjoy belng asked how eld she 1s and quite likely will give an evasive answer, and Jonathan is ifisely to winee when asked If there is any mortgase on his property—if there 1s one. ‘Those who own their places are net stung by such a question. ¥ Everybody will recognize the enwrm- srators and make their business emsy and plessant except the Ignorent—the ottizens who see mo sense in a censms =nd who @o not think thelr private affatrs are any of the governments business anyway.

S~ of the Bridgeport Tel- egram, & Norwich woman by the way, contributes to the woman's page of that paper dafly a readadle editorial under ghe captien of “The Daily Morn- ing CalL” and from the quality and charscter of her work, “the Morning Caller™ shows that she would have Nfe better and lovelier. She hgs this to say of pets and people “The devotion of a famfly to a pet is & stranze contrast to e neglect of the same ome to family relatives, old servants, or those whom for any rea- con they snould have a care.

The astronomers vary as to the chances of the comet’s striking the earth. Professor Pickering finds that, In the last half of the nineteenth cen- tury, 121 comets penetrated the sphere of the earth's orbit. From this he de- duces that we should expect to be | struck by the core of a visible comet |only once in sbout 400,000,000 years, | |but” we misnt expect collision with | some part of the larger hiead once in 14,000,000 years. He, however, doubles this frequency to once in 2,000,000 years, owing to the fact that the or- bits of comets are more frequently dls- tributed near the elliptie, the plane in which Whe earth travels. He believes that, during the great star shower of 1833, we passed closed to the core of an invisible comet, and possibly the same in the year 902, the “year of stare. Thare is nothing of a startling na- ture about these figures, since there is no proof that this is the year that | a collision is due, for it is known that | the eourse of this comet is 15,000,000 milas away, which is a safe distance for calm observation of the phenome- nom, THE MARATHON DANCE. | Tne Marathon dance has never | reached New England, although at the west it has become & fad which in some Instances has been interfered with by the police because the fools participating were in danger of killing themselves by excessive exertion. | The Marathon dance is made up of | & number of dancing teams, each con- | | sisting of 4 man and woman clad as | |Hightly as the police will allow, num- bered and tagged to facllitate betting. Hour after hour they dance, finally staggering about on the floor sus- tained only by stimulants, until one by one they drop completely exhaust- ed, the last glassy-eyed couple “up” winning the prize. Out in San Francisco a Marathon dance lasted fifteen hours and six minutes, or until stopped by the po- |lice on the recommendation of physi- cans. Thers is nothing God has ereated that can make a bigger fool of him- self than man when encouraged by competition and prizes. The Bulletin endorses this sentiment from the Kansas City Journal: “Thero are bets and purses upon this degradation of manhood and wo- manhood and it is dignified a8 a ‘sport’ But it is a ‘sport’ of harmful results and demoralizsing influence and should be forbidden by the police.” EDITORIAL NOTES. This wave of insurgency is regarded at the west as a cold wave for the ad- ministration, Happy thought fc# today: The two- faced Individual never has but one face photographed. The new mayor of Milwaukee makes no claim that he can make the city look like Paradise. Springfield, Mass., has invested in bloodhounds. It might lay in a sup- ply of lockets, too. Hven in Chicago, they see that mon- ey spent for the Y. M. C. A. is bread cast upon the water: When Roosevelt reaches New York, if asked what he wants, he is apt to reply—to be let alone. Now Britain has nine Dreadnaughts, and soon will have a few more. afloat in the interests of peace. “The early bird not only catches the worm, but he aiso has a chance to see the comet coming this way.

Milwaukee thinks the death note of graft has been struck by the triumph of the socialists. Time alone will tell. The New Jersey legislature is mow charged with having attempted to make all other legislatures look re- ®pectable.

Kince the earth is computed to be 400.000,000 years old, it must have been struck once or twice by a comet in its history, if we do not remember when.

Everybody must use hat boxes, 50 there seems to be no reason why they should not be made attractive. Select a large-sized pasteboard box and cover it inside and out with sat- een or cretonne. The inside of the box is first lined with cretonne or with sateen to match in color the outside covering, which is Pprettiest of cretonne. ‘The figured material is then fasten- o4 on the outside at the edges sewing with ciose, firm stitches. Cover the sewing with braid or a narrow strip of the material, whipped or pasted on A bond of plain material, hemmed arsrnd the edges, may be placed in the box, to be used to cover over the hat. For Cracked Skin. Try Irish moss mucilage for the brittle condition of the skin which re- sults in crackings that are painful. You can get one ounce of Irish moss for a few cents. If you take one- fourth of this and place it in a vessel with a quart of water and let it come 0 & §00d boil, you may use the strain- ed ‘mucilage resulting or even better, the cooked moss itself, and vou will be surprised at the relief given. To Sweep a Room. To eweep @ room s little, but to get it ready for sweeping takes some time. Each upholstereq piece of furniture should be carefully brushed and plain, polished surfaces wiped with a slight- 1y damp cloth, then rubbed with a dry One and moved out of the room. A paint brush is excellent to remove the dust that will lodge in carved parts or if in crevices a tiny brush or 2 wooden skewer can be used. 1f there are moldings at the top of the wall use a long-handled brush if it 1s perfectly clean. If it is not tie a duster over it. Brush the ceilings and walls In the same way. Beaded Bags. If vou happen to have an old beaded bag that belonged to your grandmoth- ( or her grandmother before that, you are particularly fortunate, for these bags are being revived one again. ‘The quaint old-fashioned designs are the mioat desired omes—little figures, | houses and trees, all worked out with | elaborate care in very minute heads. Sometimes they are gold or silver frames, and if your old bag is in good conditton, but Hias a poor top, you may have a new frame put on and at no great cost. The hand bags are most fashionable, but the little coin purses and fiat | purees are popular. Old oneg are shown in the antique shops, but one may procure new onie in more recent designs (mostly mede | abroad) for more moderate prices. Linen Cioset.

Fasten the lids with hinges and line the sides and bottom with un- bleached calico, in which, if desired, might be stitched pockets to hold | sachets of sweet lavender. The lids should be padded outside with horse hair and a permanent rough cover stitched on. Over all is fitted a neat eretonne cover, with a flounce hanging around the sides. If possible it is best to have three boxes, ome for the sheets, one for the tableclot! napkins, doilies, etc., and the other f pillow cases, bolster cases and towels. Shirt waist boxes may be construct- ed in the same manner. Creases in Fur Coats. Furs will soon have to be put away for the season and it is well to put them away In as good condition as posnible. ‘When a fur coat becomes creased, either from laying some article upon: it or from crushing, the best method of removiug such marks is to thorough- Iy dampen the fur. When possible the drying should be done out of doors, 50 the air will aid In the proocess, In no case shoul furs be placed for the dress. Care of Coat. “If anything distresses me,” said the particular woman, “it is to see a per- s0n, whether man or woman, hang up a coat by the collar, or even by a D in the collar. “There is nothing that so quickly destroys the shape of e garment and pulls the collar, be it ever so fitted, out of shape as this. f there ig not a coat hanger handy there undoubtedly is a chair over which the garment rest. If I were a man 1 should see to it that my business office closet were provided with coat hangers. Then, when I took off my coat and exchanged it for the office one I would be happy in know- ing that my coat was not getting out of_shape. “I believe I can tell at @ glance the men who are particular about hang- ing up their coats, for there is no tell- tale bulge at the back of the collar.” Brown Bread. Mix two cups of sweet milk with one cup of sour, add two cups of white meal, one cup of flour, one cup of mo- lasses, two teaspoonfuls of baking soda and a little salt. Mix well, turn into a mold and steam for three hours, then set in the oven for five minutes before turning out. Potato a la Hopatcong. Take a large potato. One from your own bin preferred. Thoroughly wash the same in running water. Place in the oven and bake. A gas oven is quicker. A good coal stove will_serve, however.

Remove the potato from the oven and turn Off the gas. Serve a la Hop- atcong. If too hot, hold in a napkin. Divile the potato as you would an orange. Do not remove the skin. Take a spoon and hollow out just enough to make a dent for a Jump of butter. Then rattle on the salt and pepper. Now pour the oil into the hemi- sphere and let it soak down out of sight. Dig into the mealy mees, and eat like a breakfast bread fruit. Keep on adding as much oil and butter as you like, and when you get to the bot- tom, eat the skin and all. There ain't no core to this delicacy. Try it. Custard Pudding. Mix together one cup of cooked rice, four well-beaten eggs, one small cup of sugar, & pinch of salt, and a little grated nutmeg.
