In August the Philadelphia club made its
brilliant spurt and wen 1(1 game out or 2T1.
This placed it ahead of UoMeii. Had Phila

The percentage of Irteries of these three

Infield of Chicago and the twirling work of
Pitcher Clnrksen, of that club, that enabled
It te make as geed n show lug as was the eaw.
After losing 15 out of the first CD plaj cil, the

opened well.
It should have tnaden far Mtcr showing
than was the com?, but there were lacking the
coherency and harmony that weivi-ible in

were a pair of pitchers who should licve
taken the championship for any club. There
were two newcomers in the Lcague race the
PitUburgs and Intlianaielis and Iwth fell

MODEB.N SPIRITUALISM.
It Originated In the United States forty
one Year Aue Its I'reirrest.
Speclal Correspondence
New YertK, Sept. 10. Spiritualism, as
It U commonly called, which, Jias found
such he6ts of believers threiujwiut civil
ization, is generally EupposeeTto have
originated in the United States about
forty-eno years age. It is rare that any
doctrine or philosophy lias gained se
many and se doreted ndhercnts in se
short a time. Spiritualism has made
ceuverts In all conditions of society
and In every part of the world. Iiut,
strictly speaking, the philosophy is,
as It9 advocates claim, very old,
elder than history. What is recent
about it is the spirit rapping phe
nomena, which began in 18-18 in the fam
ily of Jehn D. Fex, at the little illage
of Hydesville, Wayne county, N. Y.
Fex and his wife and their daughters
Kate and Margaret, 0 and 13 years of
sge, were startled by strange rapplngs
in different parts of their house, partic
ularly at night. In a short time these
rapplngs, though still unaccountable,
were made Intelligible. They assumed
te come from spirits; they told the age
of the Fex children; they answered
questions negatively by ene rap, aflinna
lively by two. They disclosed, it is said,
that tbe remains of a murdered man
were buried in the cellar of thn Fex res
idence, and, search being made, a skel
eton was found lu the identical spot
indicated. Tbe name of the victim w as
rapped out, and inquiry revealed that,
Eve yean before, such a person had vis
ited tbe beuse, and never been Been or
beard of afterward.
Tbe Fex family went te Rochester,
where tbe raps occurred at the command
of Kate and Margaret only, aud clair
voyance, the moving of chairs, tables
and ether heavy pieces of furniture, w ith
ether phenomena, were manifested with
out visible agency. These drew atten
tion, and fertr years age in tbe autumn
r4 of IBIS the Fex sisters nDDeared In a nub-
, r?'" lie ball; tbe phenomena were submitted
T , te auny tesu, but could be traced te no
i bwaan aeurce. Public curiosity and in--?,
tenet were gradually aroused, and when
v - tbe girU gave en exhibition of their
' peculiar jewer the year following, in
f& New Yerk, the newspapers dUcu&ed the
i ewjeci, nuu u wuu uwuiuu vi uuiiuu-
at aifniAcance, Endie contrerenleg
..
were etartetl; mctliuiiis, Alireugh whom
the phenomena were presented, sprang
tip nil ever the land, nnd Spiritualism
Rrew te be the burning question nf the
hour. Slnce then the new philosophy hn
been debated by the ablest minds In every
quarter of civilization, nnd it hn un
settled te an extraordinary degree the old
beliefs, rationalistic as well ns orthodox,
of the whole world.
Csen before the spirit rnpplngs In the
Vex family the s-icictles of SlmLcra ut
New Ix-banen, Wntervllet, N. V., nml
clsowhere had at the s.-itne iline startling
jwyclilcal exjKricnccs, wherein certain
members of the fraternity would lese
their proper consciousness, nnd the de
parted spirits, ns was maintained, of er er
sens of vnrleus nationalities would occu
py their bodies nnd pcnk through them.
Almest simultaneously Andrew Jacksen
Davis, r shoemaker's apprentice nt
I'euglikeensie, iloveleped threugli mes
merism wonderful clairvoyant nbllities.
Albeit uneducated, he was qualified, by
report, te speak freely and eloquently
en medical, spiritual and scientific top
ics. Wlille In the mesmeric state he de
clared he had lntcrcour9e with Invlalble
beings, nnd was Instructed as te his
place nnd duties ns n teacher of the new
tenets. He likewise dictated, under the
same conditions, litindredsnnd hundreds
of pages en a diversity of suprnmundane
theaes, nn odd comiteund of eloquence,
fustian nnd absurdity. Tliese were nf-
terwards published with the title, "The i
Principles or Natuici tier uivine iwvo iwve iwvo
latiens nnd a Veice te Mankind." The
work had an itnincnse snle nnd met with
the most contradictory criticism. Davis
thereafter wrote, In his normal mind,
many volumes of n similar character
(they all denied the supcrnntur.il author
ity of the Scriptures), the "Ore.1t liar liar
inenia" nnd liNautoblegrnphy nttrnctlng

curred recently. He 11 ed In New Yerk
state nnd in New England up te 1855
he wns then 20 doing, beside the things
that general mediums de, ninny notch

During the last thirty years of his life
he made Curope his home. In Paris,
Reme, Berlin, Vienna nnd St. Peters
burg he created a great stir. He was
presented te the emperor of the Trench,
the czar and the pope, and received
many superb gifts from crowned nenits ns a member of the

THE GREAT GUAY OWL
"A cur'ue feller" was Clay Cele, the neigh
bors cold. "Ever' minute be can git from bis
work he's allays wanderlu' round through tbe
weeds with bis gun, n-thoetln' Innocent bird
in a most triflln' way. It dece teem m cf a
dead bird was worth mere te blm than Its
weight In dollars, the way be takes en ever
'cm sometimes, an' smoeths tbelr fcatbert, an'
grins, an' carries 'em off home a-whUUln'.
Uncle F.zry eughter put a step te bis triflln'.''
Clay was misunderstood. The "Innocent
birds'1 were net killed wantonly nor In Idle
amusement. Clay was thoroughly a student
of nature; be loved the feathered songsters,
nnd It vans for this love that he sought te ob
tain and te study them. Clay was an en
thusiastic ornithologist.
In the rough neighborhood In which he
lived the pcople did net appreciate his pas
sion, ilew there could be joy and triumph
In the "discovery of an unusually bright
breasted oriole or a peculiar colored warbler
was entirely beyond their somewhat dull
comprehension.
Clay would bave explained these matters
hail any ene among his neighbors cared te
1x3 informed, but he did net seek te force in
formation upon them, and their ignorant re
marks did net disturb bun In the least. Only
ene person wa able te annoy him by criti
cising his pursuits; that was Saul Bbedes, a
boy with whom Clay thought it a dlsgrace te
have words of any kind.
A book en ornithology, which in hi early
boyhood bad fallen into Clay' possession,
had started him In his favorite study and was
asourceof constant reference and pleasure
te him. He called It bis "field book," for be
f frequently carried it about with him, and
every new bird be secured was by Its aid
identified and named.
Clay was an orphan liey, about 17 years
old, aul his home was with "Unde Ezry" en
a farm near the banks of the Missouri river.
IIe had never been nble te get the "book
learning" he desired, nud about the only
things he could call his own were the clothes
en blj back, his beloved field book and his
specimens, liven tbe old shotgun be used be
bad found stewed nway In the farmhouse
garret, wbcre Uncje Ezry bad put It when
his squirrel hunting days were ever.
The old man bad as little sympathy for
Clay's study as bis neighbors had, and he
w as a se vcre taskmaster, who made tbe boy
work as bard and as lengas the "hired man."
But when there was no work which was par
ticularly pressing, be was net se illnatured
ns te refuse bim the gun and a little time te
himself, for all that it was te "carry en fool
ishness." Clay had filled bis little sleeping room in
the old farm beusa with many specimens of
the birds of the country. Ua bad studied
taxidermy, aud bad mounted many of his
speebnens lit a careful and praiseworthy
inauner. There woresome rare birds hi his
collection and these he secretly hoped one
day te sell, nnd thereby gain seme money te
enable him te go te school.
Ha bad also corresponded with the author
of his "field book," who had given him the
natne of every rara avis which was likely te
xi found In bis vicinity, together with the
cash price n professional bird fancier would
pay for cacli. Se lie w as always en the look
out for unusual birds te add te his collection
or te sell at a bargain.
One cold April evening Unde Iizry sent
Clay te the ferry en an errand, nnd of course
the boy carried the gun along. Tbe distance
was about three miles, and inn walk et this
length it was net at all Improbable that he
would see some deslrable specimen, either an
early spring adventurer or a winter laggard.
Tbe read lay ter the most part along the
bank et tbe river, and as tbe wild gecse were
new flIng north, be thought be might get a
shot nt seme of these birds, which were fa fa fa
vortte feed at his uncle's table.
He did succeed, very seen after he started,
in bringing down two gecse, which he left in
a covert of bushes until be should return;
but he saw no ether birds of any kind worth
sheeting en bis way te the ferry.
Hore be met Saul Bhedes, overgrown, slov
enly dressed and loud mouthed, who Informed
him that he was just ready te go borne, and
w euld walk w ith him.
This was unpleasant Intelligence te Clay,
for he bad no Interest in common with bU
rough young neighbor, whose company was
very distasteful te htm; but he could net well
refuse te walk with blm, se, having deliver
ed his message te the ferry master, Clay, In
company w 1th Saul, started en the return
home.
As the yeuug naturalist had expected, be be be
fere they had geno half a mile Saul began te
sneer at bis habit of hunting birds. " Wnstin'
se much geed powder an' shot," he saliL
"What'd ye bring cr gun fer te-night P
he went en te say. "Ye can't kill no robins
when It's this cold, an' at dusk, tee."
"I don't want any robins," Clay replied.
"I cot two geese coming down, and I'm lia-
bla te get seme night birds about this tlme."
"Night birds, haw! bawl" laughed Sauk
What you need Is a eight cap nn' a w Ig."
Saul burst Inte a second cearse rear of
laughter, which was cut short by the sudden
explosion of Clay's gun, as the ever alert boy
caught sight of a large bird as It flew across
the read Just in front of thorn.
It was a snap shot, and Clay feared that be
bed missed; but as the smeke cleared, be was
surprised and elated te see the bird fluttering
in the middle of tbe read. v.
He ran forward, followed leisurely by his
companion, and perceived that the bird was
nu immense ew 1, and that bis shot had wing
ed anil partially stunned It.
IIe we3 t wise te take held of it with his
liaru Augers until he had completely disabled
it, se he placed a feet en each wing, aud thus
held it firmly te the ground.
Then he examined It closely, for be quickly
recognized that It was a new species, oue that
he bad never seen before. Tbe light wus fad
ing, but be bent down nnd, without difficulty,
made out its distinguishing features.
All at ence the young ornithologist gave an
excited exclamations "It's a great gray owl I'1
"Det ell I" said his companion, with mock
concern. "A great gray owl I Waal, waal,
who'd 'a' thought It?"
Clay said nothing. With eager eyes he
scanned the owl from beak te feet and tip et
talk He noted the great yellow eyes and
bill, the dark brew n of its back, mottled with
gru Uh whlte, and the broken barred wings
mid tall, with grayish white marbling. The
under parts were dark brown and pale gray,
and the great facial disc was marked with
dark brown and light gray rings concentric
with each eye, and below them was the
ragged whlte cellar.
Clay had fully acquainted himself with the
characteristics of this rare member of tbe
owl family, and after his scrutiny be bad no
hesitation in positively declaring it te be In
deed a great gray ewk
"The only thing I see cur'us "bout it," said
Saul, sarcastically, "Is thet It ain't a great
red, whlte an' blue owl, Itn euld be purtler,
don't ye think se, CeleP
Clay was se delighted w ith his prize that
Saul's sarcasm fell en his ears unheeded.
"Yeu see, Saul," he said, ns he nrose te bis
feet, "the great gray owl, as it is called, Is
I
ene of thoinrest birds I u the United States.
Its hdlne Is lu the Arctic regions, and believe
it or net, as you please, tlint bird under my
feet is worth a hundred dollars, at least."
This last statement called forth a loud guf
faw from Saul.
"A hundred dollars! hnw Ye'r' ns crazy
as a June bug, Clay Celol It balnt worth
the powder e wasted en it."
Clay did net attempt te argue with the Ig
noramus, but felt in Ids K'Let fur u cord
w 1th w hich te secure the feet e' hU pi Ue and
thus escape the sharp claws.
"What are ye gelu' te dn" Saul Inquired
us he watched the movement
Clay informed lilm
"Gobi' te carry thet old screech owl homer
Saul exclaimed " ual. ef you ain't get 'em
badl Sea hycr, de ya knew e'r n feulf"
Clay made no answer, but made u uoeso lu
ene end of the cord, slippisl it ever one set of
the vicious cliwsund Ugun te fashion a
second noeso in thn opposite ind for the ether
set. He meant te curr thoewl as lie would
a basket, with u cord for n handle
Suddenly be was shoved back ward se for
cibly that l.e almost let liU Uil nice, and his
tars were assailed by a loud eatk
Saul Rhodes meant trouble for lilml
"This blamed fnetUlnicsx of yeurn might
as well be stepped right hert" the young
ruffian cried. "Illameef I ain't tick e' yer
crazy (loin's, an' I'll put n step te 'em when
I'm around. This el uln't dead, I guess,
an' I'm n-gein' te turn It loesu er ef It can't
fly I'll threw It iu the river''
Clay knew that be meant nxiYiuiutt tu
aid, for he was a notorious and hearties
bully, and the young naturalist was for a
moment spellbound at tbe thought et lectaf
bis precious capture.
Saul was larger, and evidently considered
himself stronger than be; It was certain that
If Clay Interfered with his dastardly plan It
would result In a band te band difficulty.
But tbe smaller boy bad courage as well as a
lore of nature, and be determined te defend
nlspri with all his power.
Be bad scarcely an instant in which te con
sider bis action, for Saul wa proceeding at
once te carry ent his threat
Just as the rough steeped te pick up the
string which was attached te tbe owl, Clay
launched 'himself upon him with righteous
fury. Saul wa burled backward several
pace, but recovered himself and get bold of
his antagonist, and then the two boy en
gaged In tbe fiercest rough and tumble strug
gle of their lives.
Saul was bent en giving his fee a sound
drubbing for daring te resist him, and Clay
knew that unless be mastered hi enemy be
wenld suffer net only a whipping but the le
of hi great gray ewb
First up and then down tbe two wrestled
and fought, their teeth set and their breath
coming in bard gasps. Presently, locked to
gether, they began te roll ever and ever each
ether and approach the banket the river.
The bank at this point was high and steep,
atad en the very edge of it the two ceased te
roll, and Clay, who had slightly the advan
tage, tore himself suddenly from bis enemy'
clutches; then, exercising all his force, he
shoved tbe recalcitrant rough ever the edge
of tbe bank, down which be went luce a eo ee
end Temmy Twist, turning and tumbling
with amazing rapidity until he reached the
bottom.
He stepped, within a yard of the water1
edge, se dizzy that be did net knew what had
happened te bim, and with hi eyes full et
dirt. Clay could net resist a laugh, nervous
though he was, as be viewed him.
It was well for Clay that tbe fight lasted
no longer, for during its continuance the owl
had been doing its best te escnpe, and, ham
pered as it was, had already get a consider
able distance away.
After a little cliose Clay secured it, and
lifting it by tbe loop et tbe string that fast
ened its feet, he shouldered his gun and with
no further attention te the discomfited feo,
bore bis treasure te bis home in high elation.
IIe paused a moment en bis way te pick up
the two wild geese be had left la tbe bushes.
Tho-lctery ever the bully of the neighbor
hood was a signal one, and ever after Saul
treated Clay with the utmost deference.
The capture of the great gray owl was re
ported te his friend and adviser, tbe author
of his book, who Immediately replied te con
gratulate him, and te state that he bad writ
ten te a professional dealer in Kansas City,
who would probably visit bim in tbe course
et a few days.
The dealer came and examined the boy's
collection with manifest delight Before be
departed he gave Clay tl35 for the owl and
$100 mere for a number et ether specimens
in his collection.
Happy Clay I New he could get the school
ing he bad se long dreamed of; new he could
make a man of himself, and new "Unde
Ezry" and the neighbors would no longer
sneer at his proclivity for bird hunting.
Be It said, iu conclusion, that all these
things were realized, and mere. Tbe finding
et the great gray owl whs the beginning of
a new llfe for Clay Cele, and he has se for
progressed in bis ambition that bis real name
is new familiar te all dovetccs of bird lore.

Te Keep Trim Figure.
Women who wish te preserve the slimness
and contour of their figure must begin by
learning te stand well. That is explained te
mean the throwing forward and upward of
the chest, the flattening of the back, with the
shoulder blades held in their proper places,
and the definite curving in the small of the
back, thus throwing tbe whole weight et the
body upon the hips. Ne ether women held
themselves se well as the aristocratic English
women. Much of their beauty lies in their
proud carriage, the delicate crectness et
their ugures ana tne line poise or weir neaus.
The some aristocratic carriage is within the
reach of any American girl who takes the
pains te have It; it is only the question et a
few years et eternal vigilance, never relaxing
her watchfulness ever herself, and, sitting or
standing, always preserving her erectness and
pose, the result being that at the end of that
tlme it has beceme second nature te her, and
she never afterward loses It This, in a great
measure, preserves the figure, because it keeps
tbe muscles firm and well strung, and pre
vents tbe sinking down of the flesh around
the waist and hips, se common In women ever
Be, nnd which Is perfectly easy te escape.
Anether thing te avoid is a bad habit of go
ing up stairs, which most women de, bent for
ward, with the chest contracted, which, as
1 well as an indolent, slouchy manner of walk-
tug, is injurious te the heart and lungs.

"I ence saw something when n small boy,"
said an old stager esturday, "that i never

built of legs in Indiana county. The black
smith was working at his anvil when a
squeaking sound was heard, at ene side et the
shop which attracted attention.
"Turning te leek, the blacksmith and the
narrator saw a large toad dragging himself
into the iuclesure, with a fifteen inch garter
snake following. The snake bad the hind
leg of a toad swallowed. With a pair of het
tongs the blacksmith caught the snake,
which released its bold as quickly as possible.
Instead of hopping away, as was te be ex
