2 OUR DADDY DID THEM UP. The Apostles Played a Very Bad Gamo Yestorday. DIDN'T MAKE IT INTERESTING, The People From the North Made Such a Tiresome Exhibition That the Fair Spectators Got Awfally Weary. Omaha 5, 8t. Panl 2. The leaders in the Western nssociation pennant chaso, the Omahas and the St Pauls, met yesterday in their first game of the last series upon the local grounds, and the result was almost a walkaway for the White Sox. It was ladies’ day, and as has been the in- wvariable case on occasions of this kind aur- 1ng the past month, there was a very large attendance of the fair ones. The grand stand was a literal parterre of beauty. Notwithstanding this incentive to deeds of valor, the game was a loug drawn out one, with but few brilliant features to reliove tho wearisome monotony. From the paucity of ns scored one would naturally infer that nat the contest was of the short, shurp and decisive class, but it was not, but draggy, listless and unintoresting, To be sure, the Omahas put up their “usually fine game, yet scemed unable to infuse the spectators with any animation or enthusiasm. Dad Clark was in the box for the locals and did about what he pleased with the brawny sluggers from the north. They made but seven hits off of him, one of which was an accidental home run, The ball was hit by Carroll to center field, and just as Cooney was about to gather 1t up, 1t came in contact with some obstruc- tion and bounded clear over his head and on into the carriages. Nagle caught in his char- acteristic masterly fashion, Crooks lined 'em out like a Brouthers or an O'Neil, and Strauss made his customary error in right tleld, the muff of a fly oft Werrick's bat. Joe Walsh's game at short was one of those beautiful exhibitions of agility and skill that this doughty little player so well knows how to make. Andrews, too, was in Ligh feather, and the way he managed first was good for sore eyes, and Jimmy Canavan was a cuckoo in left. The play of the Apostles was rocky, but it is a well known fact that when the Saints do play & bad weame it is one of the rottenest kind, but they genamlly dump all the errors they bave on and for the next six or eight games, and to-day it is dotlars to doughnuts that they will acquit themselves brilliantly. Omaha's runs were made 1n this wise: 1n the tirat, after Cooney’s out, Cleveland made M ngle, Strauss got his base on an error of iller, and Crooks following with a single, sent Cleveland across the plate. Strauss tried to scoré on Walsh’s hit to the infield, but was caught between bases and run down. Andrews ended the inning. In the second Nagle made a hit. Werrick’s error let him to third and he crossed the plate on Clarke's sacrifice. In the next Crooks smashed out a clever home. run, and Wally Andrews a three-bag- ger, but thie latter was left. In the seventh Strauss’two-bagger, and errors by Werrick and Hawes produced a run, and in the eighth Nagle's second single and Canavan's two-sacker netted auother. St. Paul’s first run was Carroll's accidental homer in the opening innings, and in the eighth Hawes got to first by forcing out Milier, who had made a hit, and came home on Murphy’s smgle.

THE BURIAL OF JUDGE TERRY. Curious Orowds Gather to Take a Look at the Ex-Terror—His Wife Repeatedly Throws Herself on the Coffin, Sarah Althea's Blind Hatred. SAN FrANOrs00, August 16.—Justico Ste- phen J. Field, of the United States supremo court, was arrested to-day on the charge of being a party to the killing of David Terry at Lathrop. Application was made at once for a writ of habeas corpus, and the mattor was heard by Justioo Sawger, of the United States cireuit court, who granted the writ and released Justice Flield on $5,000 bail. The ‘warrant for Justice Field’s arrest was issued by a justice of the peace in Stockton on com. plaint of Mrs, Sarah Althea Terry. Sheriff Cunningham, of Stockton, arrived here with o warrant last night, and he applied 1o Judge Rix, of the police court, this morning to in- dorse it. Judge Rix took the mat- ter under advisement, and asked the advice of District Attorney Page. The latter expressed the opinion that the warrant should bo indorsed; that it was 1ssued in regular form and the judge should not consider the individuality of the person against whom it was directed, The counsel who appearod for Jusuce Field urged the judge to taie testi- mony to ascertain if the warrant should have been issued. He declared that the issuance of the warrant was nothing more than an at- tempt to humiliate a_justice of the supreme court. Judge Rix finally indorsed the war- rant and placed it in the hands of Sheriff Cunningham, who went at once to the United States appraisers’ building, where Justice Field’s chambers are located. Justice Field arrived at his chamber about noon, and, with Judge Brewer, of Kansas, and Ju awaited the arrival of the shenff. Cunningham went first to the marshal’s office and then, accompanied by Chief of Polico Crowley, Captain Lees and Unmited Statos Marshal Franks, proceeded to Justice Field’s chambers. Justice Field arose to meet tho party and Sherift cum:snam presented the warrant and formally made the arrest. Ap- m}lunuon ‘was made at once for a writ of ha- as corpus. Judge Sawyer granted the writ and retired to the circuit court room and took his seat in the jury box. District Attorney Carey announced that Sherift Cunningham had obeyed the writ of habeas corpus and produced the prisoner and that he now awaited the further pleasure of the court. Judge Sawyer set the case for a hearing next Thursday morning and ordered Justice Field released. The petition for the writ_of habeas corpus was made by Justice Field himself, and it is a very lengthy docu- ment. It sets forth 1n detail the facts al- ready known, and declares that at the break- fast table at Lathrop Justice Field was ma- liciously and wickedly assaulted from behind, ‘without any forewarning, by David S. Terry, which assault was not proved by any act, word or deed of the petitioner. The details of the contempt proceedings of September last, when Mrs, Terry caused s sensational scene in the court, are then set forth, and it is declared that at the time of the commis- sion of said contempt by Terry and his wife, and their arrest, conviction and sentence therefor, and at diverse times and places since the petitioner is informed and believes that the said Terry and wife have respectively threatened at the first opportunity thas they would insult, assault and kill the petitioner for and on account of the acts done in the discharge of his duties devolving upon him as an asso- ciate justice of the United States supreme court, and said Terry repeatedly and fre- quently declared and threatened that he would ‘‘get even” with the petitioner. The petition next sets forth that at the time of the shooting Justice Field was_accompanied by David Nagle, a deputy Unmited States marshal, who was acting under -instructions from the attorney general of the United States and Marshal Franks. The pe- titioner declares that he in no way or manner defended bimselt, or protected him- self, and was in no way responsible for any directions given Nagle or any other person; that he was merely present at the place o shooting, while en route from Los Angelos to San Francisco, in the discharge of his official duties. He further declares that he was not then, nor has he been at any time for many years, armed with any weapon whatever. The petitioner further alleges that Surah Althea Terry bas falsely and maliciously sworn out this warrant for his urrest. Justice Flield sets forth in his petition that he is now holding court in this city and his arrest and removal would seriously interfere with his official duties, such interfercnce being contrary to the pro- visions of the constitution. Justice Field further asserts that in the United States cir- Cuit court during the hearing of the Sharon case issues it was proved and held that the complainant, Sarah Althea Terry, was an “abandoned woman without veracity."

Terry was held here to-day. “The body was removed from the morgue at noon and taken to the Episcopal church, whore 1t lay in state for two hours ana was viewed by great. numbers of people.

St. Louis Republic: Among the wills recently admitted to record by Judgoe Myers, of the Hancock county probate court, in Findlay, O., was the testament of A, B. Arthur, an eccentric farmer of Marion township, who departed this life some time in June, and left behind him an estate valued at about $50,000. Arthur had never married, and his nearest-of kin living are a number of nephews and nieces, who naturally ex- pected that his earthly accumulations would be divid:d among them in an eqnitablo manner when he made his will. But after his death, when this impor- tant document was made public, none were more astonished than the expect- ant heirs when it was found that the old gentleman had devised and set aside his entire possessions to be sold by his executors, and the proceeds invested in the building and maintenance of a “home for indigent hackmen,” the institution to be crected on ground which he designated in Marion town- ship, remote from even a village, much less a city. In fact, the spot selected for the **home’ is seventeen miles from Findlay, in an open field, surrounded on all sides by large farms. Here he directed that a building capable of accommodating at one time fifty indigent hackmen should be er- ected and furnished, and appointed his exccutors as trustees to carry out his wishes and to keep up the establish- ment at an annual expense of #4,000, or until all his funds were exhausted, by which time he indulged the hope that other bequests will he made by parties in sympatby with fis ideas to carry out the freak to whick-he so freely donated his wealth, 3 What adds tethe queerness of this “last will and stestament” is the fact that there are novéa half-dozen hack- men in the courtry who are ever likely to need such a **home,” and none in the townshiv in which Arthur—who had always been a farmer—lived and died. Besides all thij, ,:2 such a home was provided, its pyopesed location is 80 re- mote from the natural haunts of hack- men that one wunfi% have to be in pretty bad shape financfally, physically and mentally if he aceppted the hospitality Mr. Arthur sozgenerously provides for in his will, @Itis hardly necessarvy to add that the ¥elatives of the dead friend of hackmér have already com- menced proceedings in the couws of common pleas of this county to have whe will set aside on the ground that the old man was not in his right mind when he executed the document, and the case will come up for hearing at the September term of the ecourt in this city. —————— Boston's Slow Growth, The new Boston directory for 1889, just published, contains 198,853 names, as against 191,758 names last year,show- ing an increase of only 1,100 names, e Phe Dog and Parrot Mourned.

CLARKSON HAS AN INTERVIEW. A New Batch of Postoffice Appointe ments Expected to Follow—Tan- ner Favora Alger For Grand Commander of the G. 4. R. 518 FourtrryTH STRRRT, WasniNGTON, D. C., August 16, ‘The president and his private secrotary, Mr. Halford, returned to Washington from Bar Harbor at 2 o’clock this afternoon. Both gentlomen seomed to have enjoyed tho trip to the coast and each shows some signs of meeting with the rays of tho sun. It was not many minutes afver they reached the white house before there was the usual nam- berof callers with all sorts of requests. About the first man to gain an audience with Mr. Halford was a gentleman from Phila- delphia, who said that he represented about four hundred who were [nterested in the oivil service rules. This gentleman was a lettor carrier and announced that thoso ‘whom he had the honor to represent were anxious to have the civil service rules still further modified. 'The particular object of the present mission was to secure the abro- gation of rule 10. This rulo applies to the restoration to theservice, without examina- ation, of persons who have been re- moved. It was recently modified by the president 80 as to permit the restoration of members of the G. A. R. without examination, but tho Piiladeiphia visitors desired to change it still further, so that there shall be no limit of the time dur- ing which the restoration of discharged civil service employes may be rostored. He did not succeed in getting any encourage- ment. The cabinet officers who are now in town lost no time in paying their respects to tne chief magistrate, and they all congratutated him upon his appearance, He certainly looks as though vhe trip had baen highly benefioial 1o him, but it has been no period of rest in the sense that rest means quiet. The whole journey was one round of receptions, but General Harrison seomed pleased to think that he had been able to see the people through New England who flocked towards the points were he stopped. Ha was not able to accomplish very much in the brief remainder of the official duy after he reached Washington, but his day is likely to extend into the night. Secretary Windom called with a batch of papers relating to places in and under his department. Se tary Proctor was on hand to consult hischief in reference to many things which pertuin to his department, and will dine with the presi- dent this evening. During the dinner the two gentlemen will talk over business. Acting Postmaster General Clarkson was at the white house at 6 o'clock when your correspondent cailed. Mr, Clarkson had a great many papers which required attention, and he had been with the president for some time then. The result of this visit will prob- ably be the announcement of a number of postofiice appointments, and it may have an effect upon the telegraph problem. Asked as to his plans for the next two weeks, the president said he proposed to leave to-morrow ufternoon for Deer Park. He has, he said, about determined to visit Indianapolis, to be present at the ceremonies attendant upon the laying of the corner stone of the soldiers’ monumentone week from Thursday. He said that he would start for Indianapolis on Tuesday evening or Wednesduy morning preceding the ceremony and that he will remain in Indianapolis only one day. He will then return to Deer Park, to remain a week or two longer, after which he will return to Washington and take up the routne work of his office here again, He said that the stay in Deer Park would not be altogether a rest, as he intends to do a great deal of work while there. As to the acceptance of other mvitations which have been tendered him to visit other cities, the president said that he thought that it wonld be ln:fouible for lum to get away. He inti- mated that by the time he shall have re- turnod from Indianapolis he will have had about all the traveling ho cares for this summer. Hewould like to be present at Bal- timore at the ceremonies attendant upon the opening of the new postoffice September 12, the anniversary of the battie of North Foint, but he said he wants some absolute rest bo- fore the important business of October is upon him, which will require all his timoe and attention. He had a great many schemes presented to him for trips to various points and would be pleased to accept them all, but this would be impossible and he thought it would be necessaay for him to forego the pleasure of accepting any of them. Mrs. Harrison will join the president here to-morrow and will accompany him to the mountains, TANNER FAVORS ALGER.

A Profitable Moonlight Pastime With Marooming Parties In Georg! Tartle-hunting and hunting turtle- oz*ln on the Veach is a favorite moon light pastime with marooning parties, says the Savanah (Ga.) News, and as profitable sometimes as it {s pleasant, lor turtles command a ready sale in tho northern markets and during the sea- son are shipped largely by the steam- ship lines to New York and other north- ern cities. The eggs are an epicurean dish and much sought after. . W. Buntz, an engineer of the Con- tral railroad, came up from Tybee last night with B, N. Elkins, Joseph Heintz and A. W, Clark from a maroon on Warsaw and brought a 500-pound turtlo, one of four which thoy turned on War- saw beach Friday night. In addition the hunters had 150 eggs. Two of the turtles were sent to Thunderbolt, one was butchered on the island, and the other was brought to the city and taken to Mr. Buntz's residence on York street, where, to gratify the curious, he will be kept to-day and to-morrow, Tts flap- pers were securoly bound with ropes. On the way over from Warsaw to the gouth end of Tybeo island it required fivo men to carry it from the landing and put it on board the train. The turtlos lay three nests of eggs 1n a season, depositing the eges in the sand, carefully covering them up and skillfully trying to hide all trace of the corawl when they leave the nest. The turtlos come out by duylight and moon- light when the tide is about three- fourths ebb and scoop out the nest just above high-water mark. The eggs, which are the s1ze of a hen’s egg, are hatched by the heat of the sun and sand in fifteen days, when the young turtles scratch their way through the sand ana make for the sea. No matter which way the little turtle isturned, if it is not in the direction of the boach it faces about and makes for the deep. The first nest of eggs is laid durin the full moon of May and the first 'ufi moon of June, and the two successive nests in the full moon of July and Au- gust. This is the last seen of the tur- tle on the beach. A nest ranges from 125 to 175 eggs, and as ail of them hatch that are not discovered and destroyed, 500 young turtles is the annual progeny of a single turtle. There are three species of deep-sea turtle. One. the loggerhead, weighs from 800 to 400 pounds. An expert can turn the largest sized turtle on his back by a dexterous flip, catching it by the shell aft and overturning it lengthwi Once on his back the amphibian is help- loss. The desire to escape predominates in the turtle, and he never shows fight. Colonel R. D. Walker tellsof a tur- tle hunt last season, where his party, having caught all they wanted one night, found a very large turtle, and two men steadied the colouel on its back and he rode in triumph to the water’s edge, where he jumped off and gave the turtle its freedom for the ride. The green turtle is another speci rarely exceeding fifty si ght. They are principally taken on the gulf coast. It is principally hunted on ac- count of the excellence of the soup, for which it 18 wused in hotels and restaurants, whereas the steaks from the loggerhead are considered to sur- pass choice northern beef in esculence and flavor. The soft-shell turtle does not attain a weight greater than twenty-five pounds, but is even more sought after than the green turtle and is considered quite a delicacy by opi- cures. - TRAIN BEATS THE RECORD. George Francis Finishes Ris Days of Starvation. “The Rev.” George Francis Train— for by that title he wishes to be known henceforth—has broken all fasting re- cords by successfully completing 100 days’ abstinence from food. He bas not been a total obstainer. for he has takeun a little chocolate and some fruit when he felt like it. George was about to start for Dock- stader’s, says the Now York Tribune, when a reporter found him 1 the Con- tinental hotel last night. Buthe didn’t mind being detained and cordially in- vited his visitor up to his room. There he discoursed from a psycho voint of view on fasts, national affairs, the international exposition of 1892, and many other sub- jects. He is still fasting. "He had nounced that he would eat a meal terday, but when the time camc he not feel hke it. *‘I am ruled by in- stinct,” he declared. “Instinet is everything, reason nothing.and mod- rn_science is a fraud.” That was to explain the chocolate and pear, on which the reporter looked with grave suspicion. Mr. Train eats fruitand drinks chocolate by instinet, but this does not affect his fast. To show how little he really cared for it, he pre- sented the pear to the reporter,and without displaying any emotion watched him eat it. The citizen has lost forty pounds of adipose tissuse and now feels confident that he will live for 200 years or so and be dictator of the United States. His head has shrunk, he savs, like the rest of his body, in consequence of his fast, and a hat that used to fit him is much to large for him. Mr. Train would not say when he would give up fasting. Ho is daily be- coming more and more convinced of the merits of starvation. He never drinks water. “I could never drink water as Tanner did,” he said, *“‘and my reason is that our reser- voirs are macadamizod with corpses.” “The Rev.” Mr. Train receives many letters, He got one the other day from Sophia Adelaide, who claims to be the daughter of Queen Victorin and the crown princess of the RRussian empire. She enthusiastically admires Mr.Train, and he firinly believes that she is a princess in hard. luck., A western woman wrote that she was a comfirmed invalid and wanted Citizen Train to heal her. George Francis says he can heal if he wants to, but he has not as yet exercised his powers. 160 e The Hudson River Tannel.
