THE BASE BALL TKOPHV.
It Arrives and Is on Exhibition in Phelps'
Drug Store.
Yesterday's scheduled game In this
city between -the Wilkes-Barre and
Scranton base ball clubs In the trophy
cup series had to be postponed on ac
count of wet grounds. The rain during
Tuesday night and Wednesday morn
ing thoroughly drenched the diamond
""d.made it a mudpond, which the
or rue u.ternoon could not dispell.
Today's game is scheduled for
Wilkes-Barre and begins at 3.30 o'clock.
Meaney will twirl for Scranton and
Delaney will oppose him. TPhe first
game scheduled was prevented by rain
here Monday, and on Tuesday Scran
ton lost in Wilkes-Barre the Hist gam-?
played. Today's contest will either
make the games won a tie or will place
two win to the credit of the Wilkes
Barre club.
The trophy cup offered by The Trib
une reached here yesterday, and Is on
exhibition In the window of I'helps'
drug store. It Is of silver and is nearly
two feet high. In design It is quite
appropriate and represents a player
In uniform supporting a huge base
ball, the whole surmounted by a
wreath and a pair of crossed bats.
The final games In the series will be
played next week as follows: Wednes
day, In Scranton: Thursday. In Wilkes
'Barre. and Friday, In Scranton. It
Is probable that two games will be
played each day In this city In order to
make up for the postponed games of
'Monday and yesterday.

STATE LEAtit'K MEETIXU.
Possibility of an 8-ciub League Puring
Next Year Philadelphia. Wilmington
and Shamokin Want to Try the tiperl
mcnt. vMlcntown. In.. Sept. IS. The Penn
sylvania State leuguu held a meeting
here today and wound up ItJ business
for the season of IS'.'i and discussed the
prospects for next year. The pennant
for this season was awarded to the 11a
zletou team, which defeated the Head
ing club 1 formerly 'Allentowni, the win
ners of the llrst series.
The league reserved all tho players,
Including the men who deserted, nnd
the suspension of the hitter will be eon
tinned so that they will le compelled
to pay the penalty for -their desertion.
The 11 nances ,f the league were found
to be in good shape, 'but all the clubs
lost money during the season just
ciosen.
William Sh.ir.-alg made application for
tin- franchise of a team to be located
In Philadelphia next season, and It w
awn rued to mm. lie has secured 1111
option on the Philadelphia league club
grounds for dates when the Phillies
are away, nnd will call his tenm the
Athletics in honor of the old Amelcan
Association team, of which he was
mannger.
Wilmington, Del.. Shamokin nnd sev
eral other towns also asked for fran
chises for next yehr. but It wus decld
ed to admit no others unless the ".ii
lorteit to play out the season is de
posited in cash with the application
Preferences will, however, be given to
cities where tile team will be barked
by street railway companies and the
promise to play out the season. Potts
Vllle, Heading, Carbondale. iKuncaster
and Hazlcton all want to be In the
league next year. The interstate league
Idea was not In much favor at the
meeting, and It Is probable that there
will be nothing more than a state
league next year.

Justice Hunt's Decision .Mokes the Corfcctt
and I Itslminons .Match Assured.
Dallas, Texas, Sepit. 18. Chief Jus
tice James M. Jlutrt. tTie highest
Judicial authority In Texas, decided,
after -a two days' hearing of arguments,
that there Is no law In TVxns prohibit
ing pugilistic exhibitions, except the
state occupation law.
He discharged Clark and Cavanagh,
the prize lighters arrested on the night
of Sept. 1,
His decision Is a sweeping victory for
the attorneys of thii Florida Athletic
rlub, who have contended all along
that the -payment of a license, of $500
was all that was necessary to pull off
the championship contest or any other
pugilistic exhibition.
Tho court room was crowded when
the decision wan announced. Some of
tho spectators started to applaud, but
were sternly rebuked by the Judge, wh.i
threatened to have them committed to
Jail. ,
Dan A. Stuart said tonight:
"The contractors will put two hun
dred additional men at work tomorrow.
and the amphitheater will be completed
by Oct. 26. We had Intended to man
damus the comptroller, but this de
cision makes easy sailing. An adverse
decision would hnvesent the fight else
where, ns I would never have given
Governor Culberson an opportunity to
Btop the fight.
"Ho did his duty as he rnncelved It.

general. Corbctt nnd Fltssslmmons will

TIIE HUMAN FACE.
Study and Profit by the Wisdom Thus
.Acquired.
From the Philadelphia Call.
"Isn't she lovely!" exclaimed one
lady to nnother recently. "She has
such candid. Innocent, large blue eyes
that one rtiust take to her at once."
The lady uddressed made no reply, for
none was needed, but she felt that
tluise same blue eyes were of a type
that. Innocent, candid, childlike, soul
ful ns they might seem, always Indi
cated a lack of truth In t'hc owner. "I
would not trust those eves anvwhere"
said she to herself, "but I shall say
nmning. j ney are or the type known
as 'the lying blue eye,' but it is not for
me to Judge." Nevertheless, her diag
nosis of the case was entirely correct.
wun a race or candor and blue eyes
that would melt a heart of stone tho
owner, nevertheless, proved utterly
iinreiiunie in ner word In every way.
Precisely the same thing happened In
relation to a man having the same kind
of soulful blue eyes. It Is not neces
sary that every one with blue eyes
should have a propensity for untruth,
nor that all owning eyes of other col
ors should be truthful, but so far it
has been proved that those, to whom
nature has given eyes of this peculiar
blue she also gives a vivid Imagination,
to put It delicately. "What do yoii
think of So und So'.'" was asked by a
man of another woman In relation to
some one with whom he would have
close dealings. "I ,do not like his
square Jaw. You will have trouble
with him If you run up against his
opinions or Judgment or If you give
hlrn any hold. Give him an Inch and
he will take an ell." "lie hns been
very pleasant so far." "That may be,
too, and I may bo mistaken. Try him."
In three months or less the square Jaw
had asserted Itself and the close rela
tions were abandoned.
There Is no study which nays better
In the long run than that of the human
face.
SOME ANCIENT CLUBS.
From the Chicago News.
Clubs ure not modern Institutions, In
the undent days of Graven the men of
Athens combined for social Intercourse.
In Home the earliest clubs were the trade
guilds founded by Numa Pompillus In 720
II. C, similar to the guilds of the crafts
men which played so linportnnt a part in
the history of the middle Hges. At one
time there were eighty of these guilds In
Itomn alone and they were not cunllned
entirely to the metropolis, either. Very
closely allied to the .Masonic society of
our day were theaouietles formed through
out the Kuirfan empire for the practice
of religious rites unknown to the statxa,
except thnt our Masonic societies violate
no laws, liven the slaves In Rome formed
clubs of their own, which somewhat re
sembled trude unions. Although military
clubs were prohibited, yet they were tof
e rated utnong the "Ulcers of regiments In
foreign service. Tho rules of a club In a
regiment on duty In Africa have been dis
covered on the site of ft Woman encamp
ment. They showed that the annual dues
were about $1 25.
Kven women s clubs are not of recent
dale. The Roman matrons had many
such gatherings, some for religious, some
for soclul purposes. Tho most celebrated
of these was the "Senate of Matrons."
Connected with It was a debating society
In which momentous questions of dress
and etiquette were discussed much as they
are at tho present time. In both Greece
and Rome political clubs were common and
the aristocrats and democrats advanced
their views much ns thny do today. Club
houses were few In number because the
meetings were usually held out of doors.
From the time before Christ to the time
of Henry IV Is a long steu. but Investigii.

clubs during that period. The first defi

Refore the altar of the Washburn
Street Presbyterian church yesterday
morning a pretty wedding ceremony
wus performed at 10 o'clock, und the
principals, R. W. Walker and iMiss
.Maud Mary Vlpond, were united in
bonds matrimonial. R was a brilliant
affair and has been anxiously antici
pated by the select circle In which the
contracting parties moved. No invita
tions had been Issued, but when the
nuptial hour arrived the church was
comfortably tilled wltli friends. To the
strains of Mendelssohn's wedding
march, played by .M'iss 'Margaret (libbs,
the bridal party cutered and ap
proached the altar. The ushers led the
way. They were: 'Assistant Cltv Soli
citor D. J. Davis, Attorney K. W.
Thayer, Attorney C.eorge VV. Peck, nnd
It. W. Luce, Jr. The bridesmaid was
Miss Hcrtha Jenkins. The bride was
accompanied by her mother, 'Mrs. Mar
garet Vlpond. Her dress was a becom

handsome In detail. The groom was
attended by iFrank iManslleld. With
an impressive precision -the divided

altar and the ceremony was performed
by the Tcv. W. I. Stearns, of Dan

prominent society young ladies and lias
many friends. Mr. Walker is also a

A Professional Nurse Afflicted
"right's Disease of the Kidneys
Finds a Cure.
with
(From the Buffalo Nuws.)
Mrs. A. E. Taylor has resided in Buffa'o
for over forty years; her address Is 250
Herkimer avenue; as a professional nurso
sho has nursed back lo health many a suf
ferer. Disease In all Us varied forms have
become ns familiar to her as to tho regu
lar practitioner. Her occupation Is onii
thut taxes the strongest constitution, but
the fatigue of long watching and mus
ing at last brought her to a bed of sick
ness. Mrs. Taylor speaks of her com
plaint and cure as follows: "Arter being
confined to my bed for some time my dls
ease assumed such a serious aspect that a
doctor was called. He pronounced my
ailment Hrlght's disease of tho kidneys In
tho third degreo'ond a very bad case, My
limbs swelled up so that I could not wnlg
acress the floor, or. Indeed, help myself In
any way. My fare bloated up and my eyes
swelled so that the sight was badly Im
paired, This condition continued for near
ly two months without any marked Im
provement from the doctor's treatment.
I have taken quarts of liuchu and Juniper.
I tried buttery treatment, but all with
out any lasting boneflt until t felt llk'i
finally giving, up In despair. Hearing ct
Doan's Kidney Pills I gavo them a triul,
and after taking three boxes I was able
to get up without assistance and walk,
something I had not duno In months, i
continued steadily to Improve with their
use. The swelling In my leg left,' the odlor
returned to my 'fnce, changing; from a
chalky color to a healthy bloom. I now
consider myself entirely cured and I shall
never rest praising tho little- pill that
saved me. . ,
"Doan's Kidney Pills am certainly a
surprising discovery for kidney ailments.
I shall be glad to tell anyone of the won
derful cure they performed' on me."
