How the Washingtons Lout the Game
in Boston Yesterday.
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

"Ve7" . "l" "ncffceefe each hit rifely

SOME ROYAL BEDS.
Two Princesses Wliu Like Their Sheets
to be Without Creases.
From Modern Society.
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.

uncertain, and they live in a fine old honse of
tlteir own in the west end. Not long ago the
city dug a ditch down their street to repair
the sewer, and as it was an unnsual event the
good ladies were, of course, telling about it.
"And do yon know," one of them wound op
with unconscious humor, "they have put a
man-trap right in front of our house!"

TYPOGRAPHICAL CONVENTION.
A Home for Invalid Printers to be Es
tablished In Colorado.
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.

A Reception to Americun Engineers.
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.
