Although the Statesmen fielded the ball in pretty style in Boston yesterday, they could '10'ba'- while ?n the other hand the Bostons fielded just as well, and batted twice as hard. The result was a victory for the League leaders by the score of 7 to 1. Keefe and Mack and Clarkson and Bennett were the batteries. While Boston had no difficulty in hitting Keefe's curves, the Senators were powerless before the erratic delivery of Clarkson. The Bostons hit so hard and so evenly that they earned 6 of their 7 runs. The feature of the game was the great field work of Wilmot, who made 7 put outs and no errors. He also made 2 hits. Mor w.trc K'ven a rousing reception ^e-v m*de their appearance on the field. "Ve7" . "l" "ncffceefe each hit rifely once.

Clareuce house, the residence of the duchess I of Ediuburgh, is one of the most comfortable houses in Loudon, and is famous for its good ? beds, for the only daughter of Alexander II of | Russia is, like many Muscovite ladies, verv par ticular about her beds, and will tolerute in her i house none but the very best. Even when a | mere child, and long before her marriage, she was so particular about this very important , item in domestic comfort that, to insure the I sheets being tightly stretched over the mat tress, she used to have them sewn down, for even the slightest crease or wrinkle would en tirely destroy the repose of this imperial spoilt child tor the night. Her royal highness used to be greatly chaffed about this weakness by members of our royal family-when first she came to this country, but the qucin. who is also very particular about her beds, stuck up for her, and although now the sheets are no longer sewn down to the mattress, they are composed of the most ex quisitely fine linen that can be procured, and stretched like a tight-rope over the most per fect mattresses that can be manufactured in Paris, in which capital the making of mat tresses has been brought up to the level of a fine art. A curious and amusing chapter might indeed be written about the beds of Illustrious person ages. The ex-Empress Eugenie is quite par ticular about her beds as the duchess of Edin burgh or our gracious sovereign, and quite agrees with the first-named lady as to the fine ness of the linen and the tightness of the draw ing of the sheets, but her imperial majesty has an odd fancy to have her bed so low us to give a visitor to the imperial bedchamber the Im pression that the widow of Cesar is almost sleeping on the floor. It is indeed hardly ele vated more tLan a foot from the floor, as all who have .visited in old days the private apart ments at St. Cloud, Compiegne and the Tuil eries will remember.

At the third day's session of the International Typographical convention in Denver, Col., the matter relative to the sending of a delegate to Paris during the international congress, which convenes next month, was referred to the com mittee of the whole. Considerable discussion was caused by the receivingof a communication from the Knights of Labor in the matter of using plates in the government printing office at Washington. The subject was referred to a committee comprising Sutton, of Washington; Cassidy, of Trenton, N. J.; Iteicbel, of Bloomington, 111.; Metcalf, of Duluth, Minn., and Richards, of Waco, Tex. Several propositions for the establishment of a homo for invalid and indigent printers wero then submitted to the meeting. The commit tee to which they were referred reported unan imously in favor of accepting the proposition submitted by citizens of Colorado Springs, who offered eighty acres of land near the city as a free gift, ou condition that a home be started within two years and completed within three years. The* convention adopted the report of the committee. The reports of the various committees wero then taken up. the consideration of which took up the remainder of the day. The president ruled that there was no vacancies, and conse quently no election of officers will be held until next year. An appeal was taken and the ruling of the chair was sustained. ???

The London institute of civil engineers gave a reception yesterday in honor of the visiting American engineers. President Goode warmly welcomed the guests, and said that their influ ence had been one of the principal factors in raising the United States to the place of fore most nation of the earth. Mr. TLurston. in be half of the visitors, returned the heartiest thanks foe-ihe cordiality with which thev were received. A banquet wan given at the Guild Hall last evening in honor of the visiting engineers. ! The use of the hail was granted by the lord mayor in view of the international character of the assembly. President Goode, United States Minister Lincoln, the Dean of Westminster, 1 Archdeacon Farrnr, and a number of the most ! eminent engineers were present. President Goode. in proposing a toast to America, said that the Christianity of the Pilgrim Fathers jvas the foundation of American prosperity. Mr. Lincoln, in a felicitous replv, said he would refrain from referring to America, be cause in the presence of so many American friends he would be compelled to tell the truth. [Laughter.] Engineering, he declared, surpassed diplomacy in cementing the unitv of nations. Messrs. Whittemore. lowne. Hunt, and Thomson responded to a toast to American engineers' societies. MINISTER LINCOLN 8 SPEECH APPRECIATED. A London cable to the New Yofk Ifaald says: The Post says: "Mr. Lincoln's speech at the engineers' banquet last evening recalled the happy tact and graceful good feeling of Mr. 1 Helps, the late United States miniver. Wbat ?vcr.?e American engineers' criticism mav be. it win not interfere with the friendly feeling with which they will be received everywhere in the kingdom." \V hut Editors Pay for Copy. From the New York Star. "I notice." said a well-known journalist at the Press club the other evening, "that al though a good deal has been recentlv written about the various polite terms in which manu scripts are declined by editors in New York, lit tle has been told of the rates paid the unknow n writer who gets his stuff printed. All the Harper s publications pay one cent per word. 1-rojik Ia.site's half a cent per word, the Cosmo politan one cent per word, the Epoch *5 per column, the American Press association syndi date v 10 per column, De Grimm's syndicate *10 per column and liatchellor's one cent a word. The Xorth American Iieru-ic, fhitinq, Vrak($ Magazine, Jialfour's Magazine, and the Home Malar pay each three-quarters of a cent. ??The weekly story paper? do not pav well to outsiders. The l^lger is the best, ft pavs *10 a column. Munsey's Weekly pays e5. (hicr a pays $6. the Xeic York Wiekly *3. and the Famuy Story Paper *3. McLoughlm's paper, the Metropolis, pays *4 a column, the Mercury pays and the two society papers, -/own Topics and Truth. 45 a column each. Of course, these are the rates for men and women who have yet to win their literary spurs, and they certainly vary within wide enough limits. Letter-Currier Arrested for Theft. W. Edgar Phillips, chief letter-carrier at the post-oftice in Fall Biver, Mass.. was arrested and taken to Boston yesterday by Deputy t. nited States Marshal McDonald on the charge of embezzling trom the mails.
