Chicago 'Wins a Game That Seemed Surely Lost Washington Defeats Pittsburg St. Louis Champions Shut Out by Cincinnati. Chicago, Aug:. 5. Chicago won the game rith New York to-day, after all hope seemed one. For fire innings the score was a blank, nd then New York made three runs by virtue f four hit and Ryan's error. This seemed to jettle things, but in the seventh Connor's error gave a man a base, and a single, a double and a triple yielded three runs. This tied the score, and In the eighth Chicago managed to secure a base on balls, Ryan was hit with a pitched ball, and a two-bagger was obtained, all followed by a home run. This made four runs and won the game. .Score: CHICAOO. I IflW TORS. BlBPO 12 2 Kl BIB FO A Yanflaltrn,r. JFiyan. m .. Sullivan, 1 Anson, 1 ....

Foutz, on the other hand received miserable support. lie pitched much the bet ter game of the two, but four clean hits being made off his delivery. Not one of the runs was earned, bad muffing allowing runs to score after two men were out Baldwin supported Smith superbly, and when a foul tip cut a deep gash in his forehead, in the ninth inning, he pluek ily continued to catch the game out. Boyle also caught beautifully, holding Foutz's hot shot in fine style. The game was interesting through out, and was a splendid victory for the Red Stockings. Carpenter and Latham made sev eral brilliant plays. A long running catch by Sylvester, effecting a double play, was a pretty feature.

A rain and wind-storm interrupted the Cleveland-Louisville game twice ihls afternoon, and wretched ball was played on muddy grounds. The visitors batted Chamber lain hard, and were assisted by the poor fielding of the home team. Morrison's arm gave out in the eighth inning and he was bit hard, the Lou lavilles scoring six runs. The Lonisvilles had a chance to win in the ninth inning, but the game was called on account of darkness, after Mack had reached first, with the heavy batters to fol low him.

Umpire Mcljuade. July Hatting Averages. The July batting averages of the League ahow that Anson leads, closely followed by Brouthers, Thompson, and Twitcheli. Van Haltren, of whose batting qualities so much was expected, is way down among the tail-end hitters. Darling is batting very hard for Chicago, a surprising fact, as he ranked 82 in the International league last season. Shindle's average is also better than his average in Utica. Compared with the averages of Anson, Brouth ers and Thompson, which are .449, .442 and. 422, respectively, the batting rank of the Indianapo lis plavers is as follows: Glasscock is eighteenth, with an average of .374. Shomberg is next, in the twenty-sixth place, with .347, an average also held by Williamson, of Chicago, and Rich ardson, of Detroit. Denny is twenty-eighth with .341, Haekett twenjty-third with .325, Seery thirty-sixth with .321, Boyle forty-ninth with .294. Bassett fiftv-second with .286, Polhemus fifty-fifth with .283; McGeachy fifty eighth with .280, Myers sixty-second 'with .261, Healy seventy-first with 237, Ca bill five points less, in seventy-third place, while Arundel is only a point below CabilL Gilmore is at the bottom, with .172. The Philadelphia Game To-Dsy. The threatening clouds early yesterday after noon and the fall of rain about 3:30 o'clock led to the taking down ot the base-ball flags which meant that the Philadelphia game for the day was off. The first game of the series, which will be limited to two, will be played this after noon, when it is probable Buffinton and Gun ning will do the battery work for the visitors, and Bovle and Mvers are expected to do the pitching and catching of the home team, who will be strengthened by Denny's return to third base. 'Base-Ball Motes. Denny is the fourth League player to make his 100th actual hit. Mack, of Washington, recently bought a block of houses in Worcester. The Pittsbnrgs lead the League in one thing postponed games. They have eleven to play off. Anson wouldn't let Newark put in the colored battery iigaidfct Chicago in their recent exhibi tion game. Muldoon, the once popular third baseman of the Baltimore team, is playing second for the Jersey City nine. The Delaware-street nine failed to score against the Young Clippers yesterday afternoon, who made nine runs. John Brennan returned home last evening. He has closed his connection with the North west League as umpire. Dascomb, of the Dartmouth College nine, is trying the "Brewster' dodge. He is playing un der the name of Edmunds in the Burlington (Vt)nine. Jim Hart, of the Milwaukee team, is said to have been offered the managerial reins of the Athletics since Bancrofts release. President Wikoff, on the assumption that they belong to the Association, has suspended Beatin and Kinslow. the Allentown battery. This means trouble between the League and the As sociation. Boston has onlv won three games since leav ing home. They lost two in New York, only failing to lose three because the third one was postponed on account of rain; two in Chicago, and one each in Indianapolis and Detroit. In the game yesterday at Bloomington. 111., between the Bloomington Reds and the Cham paign Clippers, the Champaign club forfeited tne game in the seventh inning, their claim being that the umpire was unfair towards them. The score stood thirteen to eleven in favor of Bloomington. The game with the Pittsburga scheduled for Indianapolis on Aug. 16 has been changed to the 12th inst The postponed game yesterday of the Philadelpnias will be played here on the loth of September. ()n the morning or ben. 22 the Indianapolis and Washingtons will play the game that was postponed on the morning of the 4th of July. Aug. 1. 18S6, the Bostons were 26 games be hind the Detroit, and their record was 29 won, 33 lost; percentage, .432. At the same time the Washingtons had won 11, lost 53, with a per centsge of .171. The Detroits had won 55 and lost 14 to 45-23 this year. Aug. 1, last year. they had a clean lead of five victories. This year they naa a lead of three games. Von der Ahe has furnished a Post-Dispatch re porter with his usual string of chaff as to what he intends to do if the Association does not sub mit to his terms. In regard to the Detroits he said: "I cannot speak decidedly, but I am sure the Detroits will die next year unless they get the percentage allowed them, which they do not get now. So I wouldn t be surprised to see them in our camp." "Who would go out to make room? "They would not play as the Detroits. If they enter the Association it will be as the Mets. Wiman would buy them up and play them in New lork; so no club would have to go out." The State Chess Tournament. Special to the Indianapolis Journal. Marmont, Aug. 5. The fourth tourna ment of the Indiana State Chess Asso ciation was held at Maxinkuckee, as per call issued in July by the secretary of the Association. There were present: Paul F. Kuhue. champion of the State, as determined by the winter tourney; Chas. Kuhue, A. C. Kiel, Oscar Toesset:, S. B. Sweet, Dr. K K. Wheelock, Herman Franze, of the Fort Wayne chess cTub, and Dr. T. F.

Leach was declared champion of the State, as determined by the summer tourney. and the Fort Wayne chess club voted him a stand folding chess table and a set of Staunton boxwood chess men as a trophy. The winner is not subject to challenge. A resolution was passed by tne club, to the ettect that, since clause 7 of the report of committee on winter tournament of 1886 and 1887 was not submitted to the Association, the clause was not binding, and though the winner of the major prize and championship of the State was not subject to challenge. The matter between W. H. Ripley and Paul F. Kuhue, as relating to their late private match at Fort Wayne, was not discussed. since it had no connection with the Chess Asso ciation, and could not come under their con sideration. A committee on winter tournament was appointed, and the time for the match was fixed for the week beginning the second lues- day after the first Monday in January. Racine at Brighton Beach.

HOPEFUL M'GAKIGLE, He Is at St. Catherines, anajThinkthe Prose- cations Against Him Will Be Dismissed. Chicago, Aug. 5. A special to a local paper from St. Catherines, Ont, says: "Your corre spondent has again seen McGarigle, and deliv ered him the telegrams received to his address. He is very hopeful on account of the refusal of the Ontario authorfties to entertain the Baxter warrant, and seems to think that the attempted prosecutions will soon be abandoned. There are so many reports going over the wires as toMc- Garigle's present whereabouts that I wish to state, directly and unconditionally, that Mc Garigle is in St Catherines, and was seen and interviewed by tho writer, at 12:30 o'clock this morning. When told that the city was full of detectives hunting for him, he said: 'I hope they enjoy the search. I am be ginning to think it a little funny, myself, that only newspaper reporters can find me. It has been a case all through of detectives following correspondents." He is changing his biding place so often that it is almost impossible to keep track of him. There is no use making an appoint ment; he will not keep it He most positively refuses to see a party the second time, and 11 he does so it is through his friend St John, ana never in the place of the previous interview. Considering that there are some thirty detect ives and reporters in tbe city, and that McGarigle has been all day within a mile or two oi them all, it does not speak very well for their shrewdness. He will evidently remain here un til a warrant for his arrest arrives, of which he will be advised as foon as anyone, and should it be forthcoming, it is doubtful if he will change this city for another as a hiding place. It is tbe belief of your correspondent that there is not a detective force in the United States that can find him except by the search warrant system. McGarigle is busy to-night writing letters to his friends in Chicago, with whom he is now in communication. He is practically the guest of Fred St John, who seems to have taken legal advice, and makes no excuse for providing the fugitive with shelter. Now He's Gone for Good. Quebec, Aug. 5. A prominent Chicago gen tleman, on a pleasure trip, said here to-day that be had met McGarigle in this city. A man sup posed to be McGarigle, it is said, took passage here to-dav on a sailing vessel bound for Gib raltar, passing himself off as an invalid, al though it was well-known that he was in perfect health. CHRISTIANIZED) HAWAII. A Honolulu Divine Tells What Gospel Teach ing Has Bone. Ban Francisco Examiner. At the usual Sunday meeting of the Young Men's Christian Association, yesterday, the Rev. E. C. Oggel, pastor of the Bethel Church, in Honolulu, Hawaii, delivered a lecture on "Christian WorK in the Hawaiian Islands." Seventy years ago, he said, that land, with its loudless sky and clear atmosphere, its refresh ng showers and gkrious rainbows, its brill iant moonlit nii:ht3, lofty mountains, perennial springs, beautiful cascades, and active volcanoes, was sunk in all the degradation of heathenism. In 1809 the entire group of islands were under complete submission to the rule of the king, and when he died in 1819 a historian states the people shaved their heads, knocked out their front tenth, broke througn all restraint, practiced all manner of crimes as if they were virtues, and all ages and sexes gave rein to their worst passions committing self torture, robbery and murder. The lecturer added that polygamy abounded and the mar riage relation was unknown. One child was usually raised in a family, and others strangled or otherwise killed, especially if delicate.- The land was filled with idolatry and superstitious customs. In 1820 the first missionaries were sent to the islands, and sixty-seven years ago the natives committed their idols to the flames, and the smoke of the sacred temples of paganism arose and polluted the air. The teaching of the gos pel was accompanied by great revivals of re ligion and great and good men sprang up. Mr. Oggel admitted that the Hawaiians would have been better without opium and liquor, which are the mightiest obstacles to true progress and have done immense damage to the Chinese resi dents, but the Christian religion has always been a boon to the islanders. Now, the sacredness of marriage is established; the Sabbath as a divine institution and the family altar are noticed among them: and instead of being naked and living in grass huts, being without a written language, and addicted to every imaginable vice, they are to-day clothed, have a written language, secular and religious newspapers, good schools, and other advantages of a Christian civilization. Before concluding Mr. Oggel referred to the late revolution on the islands and the effort to establish a stable government. The reform so quietly and honorably effected was largely due to the secular institutions in Honolulu, who have long desired an effeotive and economical form of government Subscribe for the Journal. Central Christian Advocate. What we greatly need in this country, es pecially as we are soon to pass through another presidential corapaign, is a large increase in the number of clean, honorable, political newspapers newspapers that, while they are loyal to tbe parties they represent, are above littleness, and that make no compromise of principle or truth. No one who is not blinded by partisan zeal can faii to mark the insincerity of the average poli tical paper. It makes no attempt to enter into an honest discussion of tbe political questions of the day. but forces upon its readers its own opinions and conclusions, without giving them a fair opportunity to pass their own judgments upon public measures. Its policy is one of mis representation, ridicule, and wholesale denuncia tion of political opponents and their policies. In a countrv that prides itself upon the general intelligence of the people it is indeed strange that such papers ean have any considerable patronage. By Rail from Tien-Tsin to Takou. Fall 31 all Gazette. A placard fixed within the last few days on the walls of Tien-Tsin has brought home to the people of China for the first time in the history of that empire the democratic doctrine of ex propriation. The placard announces that a rs4' way is to be built between Tien-Tsin and T&uou. and" it is composed with a view to give some confidence to the panic-stricken inhabi tants brought face to face with this dire calamity of modern civilization. Their first care is for their lives, their next for their property. They are assured that when the line goes through a village foot passengers need have no fear. A fair price is to be paid for whatever land is re quired, and the land itself is to be released from the payment of all taxation. And the railway, moreover, is not to be a curse disguised 'as a blessing. It seezis the heathen Chinee is sus picious, and so he is assured that the object of this new venture is not merely for war purposes, out that it is to serve lor traffic and for com merce. The Chinese, for all their blandness, might turn out in their thousands and impede or destroy the works. Such things have happened in the history of railway enterprise in countries much less dense in population and much more advanced in knowledge. So the poster goes on to assure them once again that all the land that's taken .will be paid for, and that opposition to the decree involves risk to the obstructors. Pen alties are hinted at, and peace and obedience recommended. It makes strange reading for the year 1887. And this railway is only to b-3 forty-four miles long, passing through a flat country with no engineering difficulties.. One feels that a breach is at last made in the wall of China, and that a great deal of light may be let in where it is very mueh needed. SOME ADVICE TO CAMPERS. How Life in a Tent May Be Made Comfortable for Women. Bnth Hall, in Good Ilousekeepine. Those who expect to spend a season in the woods expect too. of course, to be deprived, for that season, of many comforts and to depend on makesh.fts in their place. But there is a right way and a wrong way of camping, as of all else. and it is astonishing how easy the work can be made, and how pleasant tbe surroundings, when the right way is chosen. It is an axiom of out ing that one must go once to find out how to go again ; but, when the wisdom comes at second hand, it may prove just as profitable as that bought by experience. b irst. then: Don t renounce all luxuries. A steamer-chair won't take up much room in packing, and in a week or two of wood-life you will grow very tired of sitting on tbe ground, or even in hammocks. That hint is more especially for the chaperon's benefit Further (if you have no man-servant in ordinary), don't let all the women get all the meals! It will not only prove "confusion worse confounded," but very confin ing to the ladies as well. If there are six of them in the party (if not, eke out that number with some of tbe men), let the three couples take a meal each day, the entire charge of providing aud setting it upon the table and let it be a progressive service, where the care of breakfast one day means dinner the next, with tea the next, with a proviso that those who get a meal do not wash its dishes. This plan reduces the hardest work to a verv simple fashion. If it i3 possible, have one of the men knock np a table and benches tor the mahlzeit Take dishes enough to set this table decently, and, except in case of rain, they can be kept there when not in use. Should one of the party be ingenious (and if you camp in NewEnrland, he is sure to be!, be might make a stove, which seems truly much more formidable in telling than the deed; one of which I wot was a square, bottomless box of sheet-iron, with an opening in front for feeding the fire, and another in the back for stove-pipe. The top was removable, and had two round holes, on which we set our kettles or gridiron, and were able todo all things but bake ns easily as on the home range. A soap-box, with partitions run in by way of shelves, makes a capital cupboard to bold salt, sugar, flour, etc. A small, low table, to stand near the stove and hold cooking utensils, is a help on the - slippery wood ground, where every Btep seems to tell. In the ladies' tent. I should strongly advise one of those folding sewing tables, which can be easily transported, and will prove invaluable where there are several women and their be longings packed in together. Don't forget a smali hanging mirror and pin-cushion, nor some of those little wall bags which are used for "catchalls" at home, and will wonderfully economize space and time in searching hero. If two or three will carry a small trunk together, instead of a num ber of satchels, it will prove much better in the same way, and the trunk, closed, also serves as a seat by day and a repository for one person's garments at night You will probably be made to understand at the outset that nothing should be bung or pinned up about your tent which touches the canvas, if you wish to preserve it water-proof. Still there will be available places, and to each of these should be appended receptacles for the thousand and one trifles a woman has need of, and which must be, at such a time, kept in as small a space as possible and out of the way. Take plenty of blankets and pillows, if possi ble, and don't forget the pillow-cases nor the sheets; but folding cots are not expensive nor very cumberson, and, having tried both kinds, I would advocate this last sort of couch, certainly for ladies. Of course, the men know what to wear, and ' will wear it For women an iron-gray flannel is by far the best thing, with, if convenient, one entire change of dre3s in case of need. A box of tourist ruffling is tbe concisest lingerie, or a long, black lace scarf wound about one's neck looks pretty, and is handy. A soft cap (Tam o' Shanter, or the like) is the most appropriate and convenient head-gear. Don't carry a lot of pretty things with you, for tney will only be in the way, and if your heart is set on "dressing up" you had better stay at home. If you camp near enough'an ice-house to get a supply once in a while, a covered barrel, sunk in tho ground, make a refrigerator for butter, etc. Unless the expedition is to be into verita ble wilderness malice prepense and if it be more for the fact of camping than for any par ticular situation, let me strongly urge that you pitch your tent not too far. from some farm bouse, where fresh food may be obtained once in a while. If the deprivations are necessary and some are bear them with all grace, but make the holiday season as easy as is possible for a holiday season to be. A few glass lanterns will be needed, and then as many of the Chinese variety as you have a mind for will add much to the beauty and pleasure of the evening. JOHN BEAN'S SUIT. The Hero of the first Coachman Marriage Seeking: Damages. Troy (N. Y.) Press. John Dean, a traveling salesman for a New York wool brokerage house, has instituted through James Lansing, his attorney, an action for $10,000 damages against Peter McCarthy, of this city. Dean alleges as his cause of action that Mr. McCarthy wrote a letter to the house which employs Dean, stating that the latter had prevaricated in his method of business, and that he was not a fit character to travel for any re spectable business bous9. This is not denied by Mr. McCarty. John Dean, the plaintiff in the action, has had quite a romantic career. About tbe year 1860 Dean was employed as a coach man by a New York manufacturer, named Boker. linker had an only danghter, Julia Ann Boker. This daughter was about twenty-five years of age, handsome, and well educated. Dean, who was about thirty years of age at the time, was frequently brought into contact with Julia Ann. The close relationship caused a feeling to spring up between the couple which soon ripened into love. Then came the climax. They both well knew that Papa Boker would never give his consent to their marriage. They eloped and were married. For a time all ran along smoothly. They were happy and contented and envied by many. Meantime the news of the elopement had been spread throughout the country, which resounded with the popular applause of John Dean and bis bride. Songs were written, one of which bore tbe appropriate title of "John Dean and His Own Julia Ann." and they were the hero and heroine of the hour. But life, especially mar ried hfe, is fraught with vicissitudes.- Julia bad been reared from childhood in luxury. Her parents disowned and disinherited her. A longing for the joys bad comforts of the parental home returned to her. She be came displeased with her life with John Dean. He was poor, and they ws;e necessarily deprived of many of the luxuries of life. The more she pondered on tha subject the more cis contented with her lot it made her. At last she returned to the home of her parents, who will ingly received her. Dean wandered away from the scene of his adventure and the elopement was forgotten. Mrs. Deari shortly after went to Paris, where she now resides. Dean has since then risen to a higher position in the world than he occuDied as a coachman. He held various positions, and for the past several years has traveled as an agent for wool commission houses m New York citv. He is widely Known through out the country and has the reputation of being a reliable cotton and wool expert Cooking in the Public Schools. New Tork Letter. The attempt to induce our public school com missioners to consider cooking classes as a part of the regular course of girls' schools in New York took serious shape when Mayor Hewitt ap pointed Mrs. Agnew and Miss Dodge members of the board of education. Both these ladies have ben crominent in New York cooking schools, and they began at once to feel the way for the introduction or a cooking class ior gins oetween the ages of twelve and fifteen. Several of the ladies who are most earnest in their desire to thus revolutionize our public school system, so far as the girls are con cerced. tell me that without exception work of cooking schools in this city has been eminently satisfactory. In the New New York Cooking School, for instance, where several hundred children are taught every year good plain cooking, the parents come by the dozen to thank the managers, ana a powerrui preventive of intemperance has been found in many homes in better cooking. This is not only a movement for better cooking, but for economy in cooking, which is almost the same thing. Tbe French, who are notoriously good cooks, spend far less than we do upon their cooking and achieve SE3BBB30 GO CO Fuchsia BudS: A GUARANTEES SPEUIHC COR ALL DERANGEMENTS 0T TWC STOMACH, NERVES.

French eookine is not elaborate, and is simplicity itself, so simple that it may be easily taueht to intelli cent children. The experience at our cooking schools has shown that in a very few months a girl can learn, by attending two lessons a weeK of two hours' each, how to cook the ordinary dishes in common use in a proper fashion. The question, therefore, comes up as to whether it will be wise for the board of education to spend a large sum of money $85,000 in order to fit up the apparatus for teaching cooking in public schools, and to incur the annual charge lor teachers. Of course, such enthusiasts as Miss Dodge believe that it will be sufficient to make the experiment ior one year in order to prove its wisdom. But it is rather an expensive one, and the theoretical teaching of cooking is of no value whatever. What It Costs to Raise a Boy. Buffalo Express. "My father never did anything for me," re cently remarked a yomg man who a few weeks ago finished his school life, and is now seeking a good business opening. Judeing by the words and the complaining tone in which they were uttered, tbe member of the firm who heard them is prone to believe that the young man's idea of "doing something" is an outright gift of a thousand dollars in a lump," or the purchase of a partnership in an established concern. This young man, to the knowledge of the writer, has never done one month's actual work for others in his entire life. His life has been passed in the pleasant pastimes of the home circle, in reading, study, hunting, fishing, ball-playing, yatching and other employments not particular bene ficial to others, tile is a type of that class of boys whose parents are sufficiently well-to-do to keep servants to attend the household drudgery, and whose fathers follow vocations in which no use can be made of the boy's spare hours. Like most boys of his class, he looks upon his board and clothes for twenty years, together with hia pony, jeweJry, bicycle, etc., as matters of course. The writer, while the complaining remark was still ringing in his ears, had the curiosity to make a conservative compilation of what it costs to raite an ordinary boy for theArst twen ty years of his life, and here it is: 100 per year for the first 5 years..? 500 150 ' econd 5., " .. 750 200 " " - " third 5 " .. l.OOO 300 " next 3 " .. 90O 500 " ' " " next 2 .. 1,000 $4,150 Yes, this is a moderate estimate of the finan cial balance against the boy who complains that his father has never done anything for nim. Why lie Is a Heathen. Wong Chin Foo, in North American Ueview. The main element of all religion is the moral code controlling and regulating the relations and acts of individuals towards "God, neighbor and self;" and this intelligent "heathenism" was taught thousands of years before Christianity existed or Jewry borrowed it Heathenism has not lost or lessened it since. We heathen are a God-fearing race. Aye, we believe the whole universe creation what ever exists and has existed is of God and in God; that, figuratively, the thunder is His voice and the lightning His mighty hands; that every thing we do and contemplate doinp is seen and known by Him; that He has created this and other -worlds to effectuate bene ficent, not merciless, designs, and that all that He has done is for the steady, progressive bene fit of the creatures whom He endowed with life and sensibility, and to whom as a consequence He owes and gives paternal care, and wiil give paternalj comnenjavion and justice; yet His voice will threaten and His mighty band chastise those who deliberately disobey His sacred laws and their duty to their fellow man. "Do unto others as you wish they would do unto you," or "Love your neighbor as yourself," is the great Divine law which Christians and heathens alike hold, but which the Christians ignore. This ia what keeps me the heathen I am, and I earnestly invite the Christians of America to come to Confucius. IIow a Dog: Went Mad. New Tork World. The famous bull-terrier which has been tha pet and pride of the Fourth-district prison for the past two years, yielded ud his life yesterday morning under the persuasive influence of Court-officer Cox's pistoL Tha dog was a famous ratter. Yesterday morning a prisoner who was in the yard cried "Rats," and made a faint attempt to turn over a pile of logs. This was enough to start the dog. True to his in stincts he endeavored to make ti way into the wood-pile, and failing, made a frantic effort to tear the heavy sticks apart. He could not be coaxed or forced away from bis futile labor, but kept it up hour after hour until he actually went mad. and then, frothing at the mouth, toe ran round and round the prison, driving every body to positions of safety. Finally, he took possession of the kitchen. There was nothing left but to kill the brute, which was done. In place of any preparation sold under the name of "baby powder" use some fine starch. Put a few lumps in a cup and pour over it enough cold water to dissolve it After you are sure it is dissolved let it staud until the starch is settled and the water is clear, then turn the wa ter off. Let the starch dry, and then powder it and put it in a soft muslin bag. through which it will sift out This is very healing, and an swers admirably any purpose the powder is sup posed to eerve. It may be perfumed with a few drops of any good extract put into the water in which it is dissolved. ism r aces;,?! 1 GAS STOVES r sTs -1 I. ,.4 a-j l r IV L ri3 - 52; o H o No kindling required; no coal to carry; no ashes to remove.
