In the recent unpleasantness at Hono lulu, it was desirable to dislodge the in surgents who had their headquarters in a bungalow. Dynamite bombs were at hand, but no gun3 to fire them with, but in a happy moment the king's guards secured the seryiees of Henry Woodbouse, pitcher of the Honolulu base ball club. Woodbouse stood for a few moments with a bomb in his hand, as though he were in the box waiting for a. batsman. He had to throw over a bouse to reach the bungalow, which he could not see. The first bomb went sailing over the wall, made a down curve, and struck the side of the bun galow about: a foot from the roof, and a terrible yoli followed, xhe bomb had reached them and hurt a number of in surgent .'. Woodhouse coollv picked out another bomb. Then he took a step bJick and made a half turn and sent it whizzing. It landed on the roof of the bungalow, smashed a hole that four men could have dropped through, and scattered old iron among the rebels until thev thought they were in a boiler explosion. The base bail pitcher was too much for rebels. He threw one more bomb and Wilcox came out and surrendered. After this exemplification of the utility of pitching, as applied to oilensive warfare, we may expect that the base bail drill will constitute an im portant part of army training, and that the war recruit will not be considered worthy a place among the effectives un til he can plant a ball withersoever he is ordered, has compassed all the myster ies of curves and twists, can stop hot grounders with composure, steal bases aod wield the willow as he now has to handle the musket. Therefore, let no body scoff at the national game. It has vindicated itself. The coming Napo leon will be a fancy curve pitcher, or all signs fail.—Boston Bepublic. Benefits of Sinking. The time wili soon come* says the Boston Musical Herald, when singing wili be regarded as one of the great helps to physicians in lung disease: more especially in their Incipient state. Almost every branch of gymnastics is employed in one way or another by the doctors, but the simple and natural function of singing has not yet received its full meed of attention. In Italy some years ago statistics were taken which proved that the vocal artists were especially louglived and healthy, under normal circumstances, while of the brass instrumentalists it was dis covered that consumption never claimed a victim among them. Those who have a tendency toward consumption, should take easy vocal exercises, no matter bow thin'and weak their voices may seem to be. They will find a result at times, far surpassing any relief afforded by medicine. Vocal practice, in moder ation, is the best system of general gymnastics that can be imagined, many muscles being brought into play that would scarcely be suspected of action in connection with so simple a matter as tone production. Therefore, apart from all art considerations, merely as a matter of health, one can earnestly say to the healthy, "sing I that you may re main so," and to, the weakly "sing, that you may become strong." A Gentle Sport. No gentleman admires a pugilist, and -it is not stretching the truth very far to say thai no gentleman will attend a prize fight There are gentler sports more in keeping with refined instincts. i)o6 of them is fishing.

Chief Inspector Clausen was here Monday Jof last week to confer with the graiu men regarding the re grading of wheat that has been raised in grade by cleaning in elevators. Heretofore no such change has been allowed here, where all eleva tors are public, though carried on reg ularly at Minneapolis. Clausen says there is no provision in the law to stop the regrading of cleaned and improved wheat. It will, therefore, be done here hereafter. The decision is of great im portant^ to grain and eievator men. Dr. A. B. Lynde came herefrom Mil waukee about two weeks ago and regis tered at the Hotel St. Louis. He was of pleasant, though somewhat erratic, aadress, and as he apparently had plenty of money attracted but little at tention outside the hotel. Monday noon os last week he was found in his bath tub with his throat cut from ear to ear, and had evidently been dead for some time. Though he had an abundance of bag gage, little could be found to tell any thing of his antecedents beyond the fact that he had been a practicing physician in Milwaukee, and that he had a brother in that city. It was evident that he had been addicted to the opium habil, but how badly no one here knows. Bismarck. Special Correspondence to the Irish Standard. At Friday night's session when the article locating the public institutions was reached Messrs.

Hats were thrown the air, ladies waved their fans and handkerchiefs and rejoiced over the settlement of the vexed question. Bismarck is jubilant. The North Dakota constitutional convention completed its work Saturday of last week. A telegram signed by Geo. B. Winship announced that the young Republican club of Grand Forks had passed resolutions of censure on the convention for passing the public insti tution article, and had decided to do all in its power to defeat the constitution. Saturday afternoon was passed in considering the section providing a sys tem of railroad taxation. The conven tion previously adopted the section pro viding that all property shall be taxed alike. But the advocates of the gross earnings system, which favored by the railroads, carried a motion to recon sider the section, and after one.of the bitterest fights of the session they sue needed in so amending that the legisla ture may provide for a gross earnings tax on all property "used exclusively in the operation of the road. Ashland. Special correspondence to the Irish Standard. What appears to have beei a fiendish murder occurred Monday evening of last week abont 5 o'clock a few miles outside the city limits on the line of the Omaha rail road. While the St. Paul passenger train was running towards the city En gineer Douty saw a man lying across the track a few rods ahead of the train. Before the train could be stopped the unfortunate man had been run over and, cut in two or three portions.

The whole affair is a mystery, but the theory is that the man wbo was killed was intoxicated, and bis com panion seeing the train approaching, laid his body on the track pur posely, that he might be killed. This theory is strengthened by the fact that the supposed murder escaped to the woods. The body, which was so horribly mangled that it had to be placed a barrel, is in charge ot the Ashland county authorities, and an inquest will be field. 5 FIVE HARVEST EXCURSIONS 5 HALF FARE.
