.FFCCXJU. TELL.GKAJI TO TXH DIBPATCR.1 "
Boston, July S. Dull, listless and'W
interestine was to-day's game between Bos
ton and Pittsburg, of the National League.
Baker started in to pitch lor Pittsburg and
Hitched fairly steady, but in the second in
ning he gave way to Bowman, because his
pitching hand was disabled by coming in
contact with a batted ball. Bowman was rather
wild, but the Bostons had a batting streak, and,
with the perfect helding which they did, could
easily have shut out Pittsburg. Getzein was
in prime condition, and in the last half of the
seventh inning he gave way toTaber, nboal
lowed the Pittsburgers but two hits and struck
out three men. Long played a remarkably fine
fielding game, and Berger covered the ne
territory for the Iron Cjtv lads with almost
equal brilliancy. These two'men had the lion's
ehare of the infield work. The Plttsbures were
very weak with the stick, while the home team
piled up hit after hit. The score:

AH0THEE LEAGUE QUITS.
Ko Game Played in the International
Lescne Y'eatcrday.
rCrlCUi. TTLZOBAM TO THE DISPATCH.1
BmTALO, J uly 8. No International games
were played to-day, and the league is on the
rocks. Hamilton is practically disbanded, but
an effort is being made to keep the team to
gether. Saginaw-Bay City has quit, the Lon
dons are all being sold by Manager Kcssenden,
who is working lor an umpircsnip in one of the
major leagues. Grand Rapids and Saginaw
claim that they have been treated unfairly.
Toronto, Detroit and London lot a large
amount of money on the Buffalo club and it is
believed that they tried to bleed the rest of the
clubs to meet this lo's. The management of
tSasinaw has in two months of its existence
been assessed 720. which is far in excels of the
requirements. All outstanding indebtedness
has been paid and the players received their
salines. This team is anxious to stay in the
Ieacue, but, believing that they cannot get a
fair show, ant to disband. Stein will go to
Anion's Chicago club. It is tb ought the i est of
the players are well provided for.
Another Bnll Team In Trouble.
Nkwaee. O., July 8. There is trouble in the
ba-eball association here now. Friday and
Saturday the Cleveland Star club played two
games here. They were paid by the Secretary
ana Areasarer, iks a. cjamueis, lor rriaay.
Saturday they did not receive any pay, and
they ere obliged to remain here over Sunday,
as the Secretary left town. To add to this
dissatisfaction over such proceedings, the
Newark boys kicked because they had received
no monoy for two weeks, and tbey all threatened
to quit. It is now thought that the club will
So to pieces.
IN FOURTH PLACE.
Unnlon's Men Unable to Hold Tbeir Position
In tbe Kncr and Drop a Pee The Cnptala
Ordered Off the Field.
Philadelphia, July 8. There were no
cases of sunstroke reported .at the Brother
hood grounds this afternoon, although there
was some evidence of the sun's rays having
affected Captain Hanlon, of the Pittsburg
club, for he forgot himself on several occasions
and made bitter attacks on Secretary Brunei's
umpires. In the third inning-Mr. Hanlon took
exceptions to one of Umpire Knight's decisions
and the latter removed the Captain from the
neld, , ,
Knell and Staley were the pitohers, and, al
though the former was wild and uncertain in
his deliverv, he kept the visitors' hits down to
two until the seventh inning, when tbey lit onto
him for six singles and a home run. Tben Bnf
finton exchanged places with the Californian,
and the side was retired. Staley, who had
proved a puzzler for the local batsmen, was an
easv mark for them to-day. From the second
Inning they banged the ball right, left and cen
ter, until the visitors panted for breath. Tbe
fielding of both teams was poor, but the in
tense heat was an excuse for every poor play

First round Connors had the longest reach and
Weir seemed likely to fall an easy lctim. Con
nors went for Weir, who whirled and clinched,
spoiling the professor's attack. Then he gave
some ugly blows on the body, one In the face and
took a smash on the nose. That's good, "said
Weir, smiling and backing toward nle corner.
Connors began a rush, llo did not finish It.
Weir went :it him suddenlv hammer and tongs,
punching him In the face and rlb. and as Con
nors recovered and let up a lefthander, the
Spider ducked and the glove slid upblsback.
Connors only got In one telling blow In this
round.
Hot sparring occupied them In the second and
the bell rang Just as Connors received an ugly
smash on the nose.
Third round Weir was playful, Connors mad.
Connors followed up a feint rush by Weir with an
ugly attack, which Weir ducked so quickly that he
went into the ropes. A becond later he planted
his hot left on Connors' eye. This rushing, bitting
was repeated three times. Then Weir made a
double feint with his leit and cross countered
with his right on Connors' Jaw. As he went back
Connors fell like a log and never really recovered,
though be was put un again.
Tbe match money was awarded to Weir.

Escapes a Serious Accident,
NEWS GLEANED FROM THREE STATES
7SPECIAL TELEGRAM TO THE DISPATCILl
Canton, July 8. A terrific cyclone
struck the southern portion of the city at
6 o'clock this evening, wrecking one house
completely, and b&dly damaging several
others. The storm was accompanied with
heavy rain and hail. It came very unex
pectedly, and before its approach was
known, it had passed, leaving a path of ruin
in its wake. The greatest damage done was
to the house of Conrad Shode, on Navarre
street. This was a new frame structure, all
but completed. The slaters nnd carpenters
expected to finish the work within the
present week. The wind cut it open as if
it had beeu cat with a knife, leaving noth
ing but a few feet of sidewalk and the
foundation. The workmen had left but a
few minutes before, thus luckily escaping
injury.
In the track of the storm, the house of E.
Bachert next suffered. Here the chimney
was blown off, the wind seeming to rise, and
only strike the upper portion of the bu ild-
ing. The house of a man named AValter, waB
the next to feel the fury of the storm. A por
tion of the roof was taken away, chimneys
blown down, and the house was damaged botb
inside and out. Henry Hull's place was then
visited, and quick as a flash the plastering was
torn from the walls, though strangely enouzh
there was no other damage dono here farther
than scattering furniture and household fix
ings all about. Other damage in the way of
fences and out buildings, and trees blown
down, was reported, but not of as serious a
nature as tbe above.
Fortunately tbe storm passed only over the
southern portion of the city, or tbe damage
would have been much greater. The oddest
part of this storm was the suddenness with
which it arose, and the wonderfnl power it
exerted within a half minute of time. A great
loss must have been inflicted in the country
beyond, but at this writing no reports are
obtainable.
A special dispatch from Meadville says that
a terrific storm of thunder, lightning and rain
visited here about 730 this evening. The light
ning played havoc with the electilc lights and
telegraph wires, cutting tbe postal line out en
tirely. Trees were blown down in all directions, and
the roads blocked in many places. No fatali
ties are reported, but the damage must have
been serious.
Dispatches from Oil City say that the
heaviest storm of the year has been prevailing
In that region during the evening. Impossible
to get details of damage.

their dyspepsia.
"Many business men, too, who move out
walk part of the way down town in the

another road. The man who takes walking
exercises seldom needs a doctor, and the
man who moves out into the newly-developed

rSPECTAL TZLBGBAK TO THE DI8PATCU.1
New Yoke, Jnly 8. Only twice in the
last 19 years has the weather been hotter in
New York than it was to-day. Hudnut's
record shows that Sunday, July 9, 1876, just
14 years ago, the mercury rose to 101. The
day before the maximum register was 99,
and the following week it kept np in the
nineties, climbing on the 12th to 96, and
on the 13th to 99. That made a very hot
week for the town, and the day of 101
seemed' worse, probably, than it wasbecanse
of the prostrating heat of the previous day.
In 1879, on July 16, the maximum of 101
was again reached.
Since those two days in 1876 and 1879 New
York has not known a day when the mer
cury got past 99 until to-day, when on
Broadway and other places uptown 100
was registered.
MIGHT HAVE BEEN "WOESE.
It was fortunate tbat the humidity was
not high, for waves of heat swept down
upon the city with fierce force. Mercury
boiled and struggled in its efforts to get out
of its confining tube: shirt-fronts wilted and
collars dangled broken-heartedly abont the
heated, oozing necks of their wearers. The
streets, blistered and dnsty, seemed to act in
concert with the snn, both striving to ren
der surface travel impossible.
There were few who ventured to brave
this condition of affairs, bnt those who did
give their experience as having been
"roasted." Even in the upper stories of
high buildings, where there wonld be
breezes if there were any to be had, em
ployes almost dishabille leaned over their
tasks, their energy and vitality streaming
out in perspiration from every pore.
LIKE A METAL SEA.
The harbor, as seen from one of these ele
vations, as far as the eye could reach,
seemed like a sheet of bnrnished metal,
While immediately above it a line of misty
vapor resembling steam, hung steadily in
the motionless air. Toward the afternoon
there was a breeze, bnt such a hot, unsatisfy
ing breeze that it aggravated rather than
relieved. The thermometer started off at 8
o'clock with the merenry at 75 degrees, at
noon it was 89 and at 3 o'clock 100 degrees.
There have been some prostrations to-day,
pnt not many, as it is the first day of suffer
ing and people are not yet greatly weak
ened. Eighteen cases of sunstroke were re
ported np to midnight.

Effort! to Provoke a Qcinrrel Between tbo
Doc D'Orleana nnd Ills Fiancee.
Mrs. Emily Crawford In London Truth.l
The Comte de Paris' speech, delivered al
Sheen House, was an answer to the cry of
alarm raised by Le Monde. Le Monde is an
old-fashioned, religious paper, Eoyalist as it
can be, and for doing everything decently
and in order. I believe it was put on to say
what it did by an intimate friend of the
ComtedeParis. Whatdidit say? you may
ask. That young and turbulent and in
triguing Royalists were egging on the Due
d'Orleans to separate from his father and
set up as an independent Pretender; that
they were trying to de-Christianize him, to
plunge him into dissipation and to get him
to break oft his engagement witn tne
Princess Marguerite.
What Le Monde said was perfectly true.
The noblemen in question are very intrigu
ing, fussy, greedy of lucre, and some of them
have lives of ratfierfunny pedigrees. Three
of them were partisans of General Boulanger
while his boom lasted. Two other impulsive
ones, the Due d'TJzes and the Due de
Luynes, are thoroughly honest and have no
settled plan of campaign, but think the
Comte de Paris too correct in bis methods.
The others are what Le Monde says in
triguers: The idea was to obtain the Czar's
only daughter for their young pretender,
and for him meanwhile to amnse himself
with yopng married women. It is notorious
that a charmer of very high rank followed
him to Switzerland "when he was there,
turned up again in Brussels and got up
quite a cabal against the Princess Marguer
ite, who, the caballers complained, protitted
too much by the Due being in prison to pa
rade her engagement, which the Comte de
Paris never officially announced until the
other day in answering Le Monde.
The Princess Marguerite has her mother's
even temper and qniet cheerfulness of dis
position. She takes her inoffensive man
ners and disposition and her talent for
water-color painting from her father, the
Prince de Joinville, the most popular of
Louis Philippe's sons, in that King's life
time, and in all respects a man of blameless
life. The Due de Chartres has also good
qualities. He has more engaging qualities
than the Comte de Paris, and affability a
quality I never met with dissociated from
a courageous disposition. But he has the
family incapacity to get out of his small
circle. The D'Orleans have friends, but
keep too m ch in their shells ever to be
popular.
THE TEXAS COWBOY.
Small Temptation to Disorderly Conduct
Since Whi.ky flaa Been Banished.
Harper's for July.
Cowboy life has in the last few years lost
much of its roughness. The cattle barons
have discharged most of the men who drank,
and have frowned so persistently npon
gambling that little of it is done. Cards
and whisky being put oway, there is small
temptation to disorderly conduct; so it is
only when they reach some large city, and
are not on duty, that they indulge in a gen
uine spree. On the ranches kept under fence
they have little to do when not on the
drive or In the branding time, the cattle
being all safely enclosed, But they
must take their turns at line, riding, which
means a close inspection of the fences, and
the repair of all breaks and damages.
Where night overtakes them, there they
sleep, staking their horses, and rolling
themselves in their blankets. These rides
of inspection take days to accomplish, for
there are ranches in Texas which extend in
a straight line over 70 miles. 'J.nose
ranches which are not kept under fence
necessitate more work. The boys must then
keep their cattle in sight, and while allow
ing them to graze in every direction,
must see that none in the many thousands
stray beyond the limits of their own par
ticular pastures. It is not a life, of hard
ship, and pays well enough. Everything
Is furnished to them free and or the very
best, and they are paid besides $30 per
mouth. Each party stays out from two to
three weeks at a time; but they take with
them the finest of camp wagons, with beds
and bedding, cooking utensils, the best of
groceries of all kinds, and as excellent a
cook as money can employ.
These men are exceedingly chivalrous to
all women; this seems to be a trait born in
them, as mnch apart Of their moral nature
as it is of their physical to have small feet,
for it is seldom that a genuine Texas cow
boy can be found who has not the distin
guishing mark of a handsome foot, and his
boots are to him all that the som
brero is to a Mexican. He will
deny himself many pleasures, he will
co without a coat and be seen in
most dilapidated attire, but his boots must
be ot the best and most beautiful make that
the country can afford, high of heel aud
curved of instep, a fine upper aud thin sole,
fitting like a glove and showing the hand
some foot to perfection.
CITY MEN ON FAEMS.
All the Romance and Profit Vanish With
a Single Season.
Dr. Talmaze In Ladles Home Journal.
Jnst at this time of the year there is al
ways a number of city men who get an itch
ing desire to be farmers not farmers for
health or pleasure, but farmers for profit.
Now, farming is a grand occupation; but to
the average city business man who goes into
it for profit, it holds out nothing but failure.
Tbe city farmer, for example, never consid
ers, as does the wise and knowing farmer,
that there may be disappointment in crop.
He thinks whatever he sows will come up
and yield profit.
Even a stupid turnip knows a city farmer
as soon as it sees him. Marrowfat peas
fairly rattle in their pods with derision as he
passes. The fields are glad to impose upon
the novice. Wandering too near the bee
hive with a book on honey-making, he gets
stung in three places; his cauliflowers turn
out to be cabbages; the thunder spoils his
milk; the grass-butter, that he dreamed of,
is rancid; the taxes eat up his profits; the
drought consumes his corn; the rust gets in
his wheat; the peaches drop off before they
ripen; the rot strikes the potatoes; expect
ing to surprise his benighted city friends
with a present of a few early vegetables, he
accidentally hears that they have had new
potatoes and green peas, aud sweet corn for I
a fortnigbt; the bay mare runs away with
the box wagon; his rustic gate gets out of
order; his shrubbery is perpetually needins
tbe shears; the hogs destroy tbe watermelons
and the gardener runs off with the chamber
maid. Everything goes wrong and farming is a
failure. It always is a failure when a man
knows nothing about it; if a mau can afford
to make a large outlay lor his own amuse
ment and tbe health of his family, let him
hasten to his country purchase. But no
sensible man will think to keep a business
in town and make a farm financially profit
able. Miss Mary Lee, who came from Egypt
to witness the unveiling of tbe statue of her
father, is continually meeting people whom
she only casually knew years ago, but she
never misses a name or fact, it is stated, and
can oven refer to details of a former meeting
wholly forgotten by tbe others. Hor memory
in this respect is said to be remarkable.

Do not tax the system with any excesses.
Avoid draughts ( whether of air or ice water)
when perspiring profusely.
Remember tbat the heat is debilitating in
effect and that the Life forces must be sustained.
Draw moderately on the water cooler. Drink
slowly, in small quantities and not frequently.
Remember that when perspiring you ara
liable to catch a chill by sudden change of tern,
perature. A summer cold is more annoying
than a winter one.
When you fee! the weakening effect of the
heat, take a drink of pure whiskey in water. Ic
is wonderfnl what a healthful and sustaining

Remember tbat only pure whiskey should'un
