From the letters read at Thursday evening's joint meeting of St. Paul and Metropolitan lodges the indications are that the grand lodge will bring to the city a large number of people. It is estimated that no less than 1,500 delegates Knights and ladies will he in attend ance. The time being the first week in October, the session lasting four days, and the Bock Island Knights realizing the task before them in entertaining so large a number of people, hare appealed to the public for cooperation and aid in the under taking. That the response will be general is conceded and that the peo ple of Beck Island will show their accustomed spirit of enterprise and hospitality there is no doubt.- . y The local Knights have now gotten the matter fairly in hand and in a few days Chancellor Commanders C. J. Searle and Lee Plan, of the two commmanderiea, will designate the committee on delegates. The occas ion is one which will interest all oar people and enlist their efforts to make it all that it shonld be a credit to the Pythians and to the city. They are as strong as they are simple.

Whether Surratt was in the dry on the day of Lincoln's si a i nation will probably never be positively known. Daring his trial be attempted to 'prove that he was in Elmira, K. Y.,- doing special service for the Confederacy, and tne proor wnicn ne xnmiabed was suffi cient to convince 8 out of the IS jurors gnat ne was not present and took no part in the plot. Surratt claimed to have first learned of he murder on the morn ing following the assassination from the newspapers while in Elmira and on the next morning, while en rente to New York city, of bis suspected complicity in the plot. He fled immediately to Canada, where he remained concealed by Catholic priests for nearly five months. Leaving Cmada, he went to England, t hence Vo Paris, and thence to Rome, where, under the name cf Wat son, be enlisted in the aonaves of the pope. While in the Papal aonaves he was recognised by a Canadian acquaintance. who betrayed him. On the day follow ing his arrest, while under the guard of six men, he leaped blindly from a rocky precipice over 100 feet in depth, and, alighting by chance on a projecting rock 90 leet below, ciamoered quickly down the abyss, escaped, reached Naples in the coarse of a week and sailed to Al exandria on the same vessel which car ried the instructions to the consul there that led to his capture. He was finally brought back to the United States and tried at Washington by a civil court. The trial extended over a period of two months, and more than 200 witnesses appeared' on the stand. The jury dis agreed, as above stated, and the govern ment did not prosecute the case further. "Four Lincoln Conspiracies, " by Vic tor Louis Mason, in Century. Let Da M Tocathar.

Appetite as s'cen are greatly imcroved by (-. "Before X joined the Boston Bed Stockings,'' said A. G. Spalding re cently, "I used to go np to the bat with the sole object in view of hitting the ball from the shoulder as hard ae I could, without any idea as to what part of the field it would so or on the gromdorin the air. All I thought of waa to 'knock it out of the lot, as the boys say. But I soon found that there was something more in batting than that. I think X got my first idea of what batting shonld be from defending my wicket in cricket when we went to England on that baseball tour in 1874. At any rate, I got into the habit of try ing to place, the ball, instead of hitting at random, and from that time. I real ised that to try to tap the ball to right field over the heads of the infielders and short cf the catching reach of the outfielders was about the right caper. "The new method of handling the bat, 1 remember, came to me all of a sodden. I bad been for some months batting very poorly while hitting from the shoulder, a base hit being the result in about eight of ten times at the bat, and even less. One day I thought I would try something different, and, get ting some one to pitch swift balls to me, I went in for tapping them to right field so that they would fall safe, and after a few trials np went my batting average of base hits at a jump, and especially did my hitting prove useful when run ners were on the bases. The boys be gan to want me to follow them at the bat, because I hit bo as to bat them round toward home. Then it was that I first practically realised that a swift ly pitched ball to the bat which was just tapped by the bat that is, hit lightTy, but not like a 'bunt 'would go to the field, sharp from the bat, with surprising speed; besides which, I could govern its direction better than it was possible in hitting it from the shoulder, as before. "Talking of swift pitching, " contin ued Mr. Spalding, "I used to think that we old time pitchers could send in a pretty speedy ball nnder the rale of the undernana tnrow, but none of us ever equaled the speed of the cyclono pitch ing ol tne. present time winch comes from the regular overhand throw. Then, too,- with all oar practice, we could not command the ball in delivery, as is pos sible in. overhand throwing. "New York Times. 1 fcf' . , , "A Bicycle Buflt for Two."
