struck the ground lite was gone.
There was a chorus of "Abs !" and the
crowd dispersed.
Ilosv a. "Cupper" Plava 1'pan tbe Feellnaa
of Would. lie Pnrchnaera.
A shoit, stout, pudgy individual, with
crossed eyes, occupied tho sidewalk of John
street, near the corner of Broadway, this
morning.
He wis peddling little glass leather-covered
flasks at 10 cent apiece. Business didn't
seem to be vi ry brisk, and he called a friend
over from the other side of the street and
whispered a few words in his ear.
The friond walked away, and the peddler
proceeded to Pulton street aud began busi.
ness anew. A crowd gathered, but there were
no buyers among them.
Pretty soon the young man who had hung
around on John street walked up and bought
a flask, remarking what a hargaln he was get
ting. He said be was going out fishing, and
the flask would come in naudy to carry bait
Several bystanders wore urged to bur, and
then came a rush of dimes from people who
ssere eager to obtain a reccptaclo for " bait."
Af 'er the wants of tbu crowd had been fully
supplied the pair ot sharpers moved down
Nassau street and the operation was con
tinued. By the timo tho peddler bad moved a half
doren times tho capper bad on baud a supply
of flasks sufficient to fit out a whole fishing
club.
By this clever (?) little soheme two sharpers
are enabled to make a good living aud wear
good clothes.
WAR ON ICE MONOPOLISTS,
EFFECTIVE MEA8DRE8 AGAINST EXTOR
TION A!D SHORT WEIGHT.
It seems likely that tbe ice monopolists are
not going to havo it all their own way after
all.
Their set plan of raising prices and giving
short weight has got well uuder ssay, but
there are signs that iu their avarice they wtll
proso to have overreached themselses.
One great factor the extortionists have
overlooked, and that is tbe force of popular
indignation when thoroughly and widely
aroused.
It has not needed mass-meetings and mani
festoes to mako tbis apparent in the question
of tho increase iu price of wbat is tbe peo
ple's greatest necessity in hot weather.
In tbo face of a charge of 50 cents for a
few morsels of frozen wa'er that could be
had auy prosious year for half that sum, and
that, m view of tho overstocked ice-bouses
and tho ease of gathering tbe harvest, ought
to bo bad for a dime, tbe nublio has found
two remedies.
One is to bo self-sacrificing and do with
little or no ice until the hottest weather com
pels surrender: and the other is to form
small co-operative associations in the pur
chase of this one domestio necessary.
A boycott has been quietly declared, and
icemen already complain of a great falling off
in the demand-among their former custom,
ers iu the tenement districts of the east aud
west sides.
Housewives have reasoned that ten pounds
of ice is a mighty amall piece for 10 cents
anyhow, but that when the " ten pounds "
weighs but six or seven pounds on delivery
and melts down to five or four pounds before
It gets into the ice-box, it is hardly worth
having.
Consequently they have begun to keep
their hard-earned money and do without tbe
iie.
Tbis plan of itself promises to reduce tho
icemen to some sort of terms in the near
future, but the other scheme is ten times as
good.
The families in a single tenement block in
the crowded district, and (sometimes the fam
ilies iu but one side of a long block, have
found that by combining for tbo purohase of
Ice, they are able to get it at a third of tbe
icemen's price and baffle tbo monopolists
into tho bargain.
Fifty or a hundred families base found that
they can pool their needs aud get 500 or
1,000 pounds of ice daily from tho boata at the
foot of West Tenth street and Houston street
at a great Easing, besides having the great
conhoutiou of knowing that they arc not
cheated in weight, and are dealing mighty
blows at tbo root of tho svstem of extortion.
Besides this, a sharp lookout is being kept
upon those who are suspected of using unjust
scales.
Inspectors are abroad on routes whore
there presence is littlo suspected, and the
culprits are likely to find themselves pulled
up svlth a sharp turn and vigorously prose
cuted by indignant citizens.
Tbe fight is not won yet, but a good begin
ning has been made.

abandoned, and then turning, Whitnev chucked
tho sphere to Illchardsnn and Sullivan was
caught ten feet ftom second.
In the third inning a corking three-baser by
Gore, and Dennj'a interference with a grounder
meant for Glasscock yielded the first run of the
game for tho Giants.
Errors by Denny and Baisett and a clever
steal of home wern the factors in the Giants'
second run. scored by Bichardson in the fourth

Tbe Hoosiors in a pert snd cheerful way tied

gles by Sullivan and Buckley and a wild pitch.
Illness single, an error by Waid, a wild throw
to third hyBwing and a safe lilt by Sullivan
added two runs to the Hootier score after two

CAMPBELL'S A1R-81IIP PROMISES TO REF- '-
OLUTIOMZE AERONAUTICS.
Peter Carmont Campbell's air-ship, the)
most w ondrf ul invention of the age if it can
do all he promises it cau. is attracting a great
deal of attention tbes-e days, in view of tha
near approach ot tho date when Prof. Hogaa
will take her up in tbe air for her trial trip.
At present the ship is on exhibition in a)
spacious hall on Fourteenth street, near
Sixth avenue, and Mr. Burrill, who is
director of tbe Company in charge there,
says that many prominent people are going
there and asking questions about the ship.
"I only mention the fact," he said to an
Evemi.vo Wobxd reporter this morning, "to
show you what an interest the publio is begin
ning to take in this invention of Camp
belPs." ' ' Are many of these visitors anxious to go
up in the ship on her trial trip ?" asked tha
reporter.
' Well, not many; but we have had sev
eral applications, somo of them from
aotressas with a desire for notoriety.
" Bach ren.netts havo been refused, as this
ship, which was built merely as an experi
ment, is only ntted to carry two passengers,
and Prof. Hogan has already, with Mr. Camp,
bell's assent, agreed to allow a mutual friend
of theirs to go with the Professor on the first
voyage.
r If the trip is successful, as I am sure it
will be, other ships ssith a larger seating
capacity will be built iu rapid succession,'.'
concluded Mr. Burrill.
The date fixed for Ibe trial trip is June 19,
and tbe ascent will be made from tha Man- ' '
hattan Athletic Club grounds in this city.
If the 19th of June should be stormy, the
ascent will not be made until the first fine , ,
day after that - .. ' - .. '.
Mr. Campbell, the inventor of tbe ship - 1
which may revolutionize tbe navigation of
the world, keeps n jewelry store at 155 Fifth
avauue, Brooklyn. ,
Ho was found there this morning explain
ing the merits of his machine to a number of
scientific men. who had called to examine it. I
Thev seemed to tblnk that it was a flyer
and would be successful. n. :: mi
Mr. Campbell said: " I claim tbat my air- '
ship can be steered, raised or lowered, sailed
w tn tbe wind or againM tbe wind, and, in
fact, sail the air.
" That is all I care to say abont It at pres
ent, but it will show for itself on the 10th ef
next June." i
lie showed several letters from Prof. !
Hogan, who is one of the foremost aeronauts 1
in this country, and he is cuthusiastio in
svriting of the new thip.
"I am sure she will be successful, and ant
anxious for the dav to come when I can take
command of her," be says tn one of bks
letters. j.
No belter man to sail tho ahlp can be found s&
than Mr. Hojau, who has made a National vf
roputatlou as a balloonist He is at present &
in Jackson, Mich., making final preparations W
for hit great trip, but is expected by Mr. .f&
