THE FIELD OF SPORTS.
The Visit of the Bostou Champions
Here Yesterday.
The Home Team Makes a Good Showing
With the Champions—Nine Hits Of
Lampe-The Score Was Boston^, Port
land 3.
Of course the Bostons did not try very
hard, yet they couldn’t hit Dolan without
trying and some of them couldn’t when
they did. His strikeout of big, skilful
Tucker, after the latter had called the
chaffing crowd’s attention to some point
over in the city where the ball would land,
was a very clever thing to do. Dolan dem
onstrated yesterday that he is a pitcher,
and batter and ball player in general who
belongs to the same class as the very best
men in the league.
The big visitors had no need to bat Gan
non, when he took Dolan’s place in the box.
He was either afraid they would or was
rattled, or is incapable of putting the ball
over the plate when he wants to. Five
bases on balls in one inning caused the
audience to call for Dolan, It was certainly
significant enough of a pitcher's ability to
call for special mention and ^suggestion as
to how valuable such a man is.
Z The home boys played a good game and
better still they batted Lampe just as if he
wasn’t in the box for the world’s champions.
Nix* hits with a total of eleven and two of
the three runs earned is a record to be
proud^of, snd it’sjdollars to doughnuts that
Dcmpe was pitching for business most of
the time.
The great superiority of the Bostons was
shown in the ease with which they can
work together and take advantage of every
opportunity to get runs and prevent runs,
regardless of the luck, (for there is luck)
as well as merit, of base hits and errors.
To the on-lookers it was apparent that
they won the game with little effort* yet the
score, with the exception of Gannon’s
bases on balls, doesn’t indicate any great
superiority on their part. But every man
was so thoroughly at ease in all con
tingencies of the game that every point was
played right, when emergency demanded.
It would have been more satisfactory to
the on-lookers if the Bostons had played to
. win by as big a score as possible, and It
would have been more courteous for them to
have done so. Tickets were sold to people
who wanted to see the champions play b ill
as well as they could. Of course a glimpse
of their skill wasobtaineSr^ut a full "view
was wanted. Also it was to be desired that
our boys should benefit by contact with the
champions in all their aggressiveness. But
they are a fine looking, good natured, gen
tlemanly set of men for all that.
Shumway played a good game. He had
some hard ones to handle add he grappled
with them in a highly satisfactory manner.
His two bagger, also was a beauty and came
as naturally as if such things are not going
to be infrequent with our third baBeman.
Slater’s two bagger wus just what was to
be expected, when there were men on the
bases. Keep on with that kind of stick
work, old man. It’s the kind that counts.
Of course we know that Captain Bradley
can runjup on a slow grounder; as well as
anybody else, and we like to see him do it,
too, whether he is playing with the Bostons
for fun or the Lewistons for blood.
Smith accepted all of his six chances.
He's all right, if Lampe’s long arm and his
short body were a disastrous contrast the
first time at the bat. He hit the ball after
that.
That Larnpe should strike out but one man
ia’very graftfying. Following is jthe score:

WELL PUT.
How Yoorliees Strained at a Button and
Swallowed a Shirt.
[From Senator Hoar’s Speech.]
“A specific duty ou pearl buttons bas
so filled the imagination of that hou or
able senator (Mr.Voorhees )as to kindle
in him an unwonted dramatic genius;
he has discovered that a specific duty ,
under the McKinley till, has actually
increased their, price one-sixth of a cent
a button. He forgets that while the
workman and the poor people Jjf the
country are to be relieved olja cent a
piece, if they have six buttons on their
shirt , he proposes In the same paragraph
to put ad valorem duty of BO per cent on
the shirt itself, or of 55 per cent, on the
ouffs and collars. He says that ail
duties are a tax and that ever duty
raises the price to the consumer lo the
full amount of the tax. His tariff bill
and his whole scheme are based ou that
theory.
“Now, we will suppose that of our 65,
000,000 people 11,000,000 are of the shirt
wearing age and sex and we will allow
them on an average four shirts apiece
ayear. I am told ou good authority
that the fair avrage cost of a shirt, with
the bosom and the cuffs and collars of
linen would be SI each. So we have
*44,000,000 a year expended in that arti
cle, which, 1 trust, the honorable senator
from Indiana will agree with me is a
necessary of life. Fifty per cent, ad
valorem will lie *22,000,000.
“The Senator proposes to celebrate the
birthday of Thomas Jefferson by increas
ing this burden, which be calls a tax,
and every cent of which, according to
his theory, is added to the original cost,
from 35 per cent., as it was in the House
bill, to 50 per cent. adSvalorem. Sixteen
million dollars was the House plan, and
the Senator of bis own motion, without
even taking counsel from a single Repub
lican associate, piles on *6,000,000 more.
“Of course this is not as the whole
country knows, for the sake of buying
some doubtful vote from some displeased
Democratic Senator. JThe chairman of
the Finance Committee of the Senate
of a great nation never would do that.
If he would, he would never get the in
corruptible patriots of Texas and Arkan
sas and Missouri to join him in a scheme
so nefarious. It is the doctrine of the
Democratic platform and the inexorable
Incrin nf nnliticftl pnnnnnm. hr.
influenced the senator from Indiana.
“I have heard of ^Pharisees, who
strained at a gnat and swallowed a
camel. But this is the first example 1
ever knew of a financier who strained
at a shirt button and swallowed a shirt.”
The Dam Went Out.

that the dam will be rebuilt.
There is more Catarrh in this section of
the country than all other diseases put to

supposed to be incurable. For a great
many years doctors pronounced it a local
disease, and prescribed local remedies, and
by constantly failing to cure with local
treatment, pronounced it incurable.

Mr. W. Hawxes,for the school commit
tee, reported estimates of $8000 for
the coming year, with a request that it
be made $8500, the extra $500 to enable
the.sohool board to begin instruction
in music. The $8000 is $500 more than
last year, but there is a new school
house.
Alderman Redlon advocated the $500
for music, and so moved. It was voted,
4 to 2, Aldermen Berry and Gould vot
ing no.
When the committee reported the
electric light appropriation as $1000 more
than last year, there was some objection.
The committee said that 69 new lights
had been asked for, and they thought
the $1000 extra was needed. The $16,000
for streets, etc., covers the snow bills
and takes in about $1400 of the expenses
of last year.
HORSE RAIBROAD EXTENSION.
Pemission was granted to the Port
land Railway Company to' use tue street
for an extension of the horse railroad
Irom Ocean street to Bunt’s Corner, in

to make the extension at this time as
l’ukey’s bridge will be closed this sum
mer. Work will begin Monday.
THE HOUSES TO BE NUMBERED.
Alderman Berry read an order that the
houses of the city be numbered. He
said that one of the assessors said that
he thought that in four years the cost
of numbering would be saved by the
decrease in the work of the assessors.
This was passed.
THE CITY ENGINEER.
The ordinance for the establishment
of the office of city engineer was Jtaken
from the.table, and given a second read
ing. It was then passed to be engrossed.

A similar petition was signed by Mrs
s-mmner Lbby and 49 other ladies. This
was referred to the committee of the
n hole because the government has as yet
no committee on public grounds.
TO SAVE THE CITY’S SAND.
Alderman Hanson called attention to
the fact that sand was being taken from
the city’s sand pit at East Deering. He
said that Contractor Shannnhan hauled
sand and gravel fiom there over to the
Falmouth bridge, and he had yet to
learn that any permissio i to do so bad
been granted. He thought the city’coun
cil should lake measures to prevent this
as the city owns no more sand than it
needs. He also said that the Eastern
Forge Company had hauled sand from
there. He thought that to instruct the
constable to arrest two or three of them
would be more effective than a fence
as was suggested by the mayor. ’
The matter, of a lot for a fire engine
house"went over in the absence of Alder
man Small, chairman of the committee
The exemption of the New England
Silver Company from taxaton was made
to apply to the entire plant.
Alderman Pierce Was appointed to look
after the city’s interests in the sale of
tax deedsjin East Deering, at 10 o’clock
a* next Thursday.
great meeting of Women.
The Federation of Women’s Clube Has a
Large Attendance in Convention,
Philadelphia, May 10.— The second bien
nial meeting of the General Federation of
Woman’s Clubs in the New Century Club’s
rooms looked like a sea of bonnets—not
frivolous little bonnets with pyramids of
hair rising through their crowns, such as
one sees on Broadway on a fright day, but
sombre bonnets, and all serene in their sim
plicity. But, looking back from the front
of the house, the scene was vastly different.
The bonnets, so conspicuous from the rear,
seemed little more than the spray from an
ocean of intellect.
Women’s faces rose above each other in
tiers, each face bearing an expression of
thoughtful solemnity. The delegate^ were
clearly not there to discuss bonnets.
It was shortly after 10 o’clock when Mrs.
Charlotte Emerson Brown of East Orange,
N. J., the President of the Federation,
called the'eonvention to order. At that hour
the hall was filled almost to suffocation,
and the six meek looking men, with pads of
paper were evidently there to stay.
There were women to the right of them,
women to the left of them, women in front
of them, and women everywhere. There
were fleshy women and tliin women, vener
able Women and young women, tall women
and short Women, homely women and wom
en not so homely.
There was no tittering. The delegates
were ttiere on an important mission. The
morning session was taken up by the reports
of the various officers and committees, and
during the afternoon the reports from chair
men (the printed programme gives the mas
culine gender) of fctate committees were
read.
During the evening a reception was
tendered the delegates ;by the members! of
the New Century Club. And, although the
Convention's being held within five squares
of that ultra-aristocratic coterie of blue
bloods, the Acorn Club, it was a?noticeable
font flul f flirt ('ll _
-- HUD' AUUXU UXUU
seemed totally unaware that a Convention
of Women’s clubB was being held in Phila
delphia.
The interest manifested in the proceed
ings was evident by the large number of
delegates who took copious notes of the
various speeches and reports. The frequent
preface of the speakers. “Mr. President
and Ladies,’’was noticeable.
On the platform, when President Brown
rapped for order, were such prominent wom
en in the club world as Julia P.Harvey, Mrs.
Annie Palme*, Mrs. J. C. Croly (Jennie June)!
Mrs. L. W. Bates, MIsb May Rogers, Mrs. Har
riet H. Robinson, Mrs. Julia Ward Howe,
and Mrs. Jane 0. Cooper.
After Mrs. Edward ILongstreth had wel
comed the delegates to Philadelphia on be
half of the New Century Club, and Mrs.
Brown had neatly responded, the reports
of the various officers and committees were
read by Ms J. B. Crowley, Miss Mary B.
Temple, Mrs. Jane 0. Cooper. Mrs. Julia
Plato Harvey, Mr3. Fanny Purdy Palmer,
Mrs. Jennie de la M. Lozier, Miss Ootavia
W. Bates, and Mrs. Liden W. Bates.
President Brown said the present mem
bership in the federation was 850 clubs, and
that at the next biennial she predicted a
membership of 500.
At the afternoon session letters of regret
were read including one from Mrs. Potter
Palmer of Chicago who was hot able to come
owing to the Illndss.of her husband.
Mrs. Miller, on tfefalf of the New Century
Club of Wilmington, Del.,.extended an in
vitation to the delegates to attend a recep
tion and tea on Saturday afternoon, which
Was accepted. The balance of the session
was occupied by the reading of reports
from the State committees. These were
limited to three minutes each, and in quite
a number of instances the most eloquent
flights of rhetoric Were cut short by the
tinkle of the Secretary’s bell.
Mrs. Etta H. Osgood, who read the Maine
report, Btarted in a business like manner,
holding her manu Script in one hand and
her watch in the other. She forgot all a
bout the watch, however, and when the
bell tapped sue gave a startled look at her
timepiece ,and, with a reproachful look at
the Secretary, Mrs. Croly, oegged President
Brown for a few moments more, Which were
granted. During the reading of Mrs. May
Wright Sewell’s report from Indiana, an
elderly lady in the gallery interrupted the
proceedings by gazing at the six meek-look
ingmen and calling out: “There’s too much
whispering down stairs. I can’t hear a
thing."
With no indication of embarrassment, and
with that savoir faire which distinguished
her entire bearing, President Brown arose
and remarked: “ I appoint every woman
in the audience a committee of one to see
that she does not whisper,” There was no
further cause for complaint, and Mrs.
Wright proceeded.
Mrs. Lucinda H. Stoneof Kalamazoo, Mich.,
was introduced by President Brown as a
woman known and honored in our own
country as well as across the sea.” Mrs.
Stone is President of the Twentieth Cen
tury Club of Kalamazoo, which organization,
she said had made a special 6tudy of the

Resolved, That the Federaiton of Women's
clubs, declare its belief that one standard is
equally binding upon men and women.
At the morning session yesterday, Mrs.
May Wright Sewall of Philadelphia raised a
storm of debate by the Introduction of a
proposition that the convention should
settle at once the question of affiliation
with the national council of women, which
was refered to it from the last session at
Chicago.
Mrs. Edna D. Cheney of Boston at once
moved that the question be laid on the
table, but the president, Mrs. Charlotte
Emerson Brown, appealed to Mrs. H. R.
Shattuck, president of the Boston
Political club, for instructions regarding
the disposition that could be made of the
business in hand. Mrs. Shattuck stated
that a note must be called for on the ques
tion ot afflliiion, and it was defeated by a
large majority, a motion for ^consider
ation was lost.
