THE NEW RULES FOR 1875.
Section 4 of rule 1, amended to read
that whenever a ball, in the opinion
of the umpire, becomes ripped, cut,
out of shape, or in an unfit condition
for use, a new ball shall be furnished,
on even innings, by the club furnish
ing the first hall.
Section 6 of rule 1, amended to read
that one corner of the home plate shall
touch the foul lines to third and first
base.
Sec. 1, rule 4. No part of the pitch
er’s person must be outside the lines
of position while delivering the hall,
and the delivery must be perpendicu
lar, and not by a round swing or
thrown from the wrist.
[If this rule is strictly observed, it
will cause a radical change in the style
of pitching, and do away with a large
number of «dodges” resorted to by
pitchers to increase the speed and ef
fectiveness of their delivery.]
Sec. 4, 5, 6, rule 4. Amended so ns
to call every third an unfair ball, the
first hall delivered to count, if an un
fair pitch.
[This throws out the reference to
“wides,” and is merely a return to
the old rule of «called balls,” with the
addition of counting the first pitch, if
unfair.]
Sec. 10, rule 4. “Passed halls” that
should happen to strike the umpire
are not to be considered “dead.”
Sec. 1, rule 5. This amendment is to
the effect that the position of the strik
er shall show a length of two feet front
and four feet behind the striker’s
“line,” with a width of three feet.
Sec. 3, rule 5. Two foul strikes to
put out a player, Instead of three.
Sec. 1, rule 7. Umpires not to be
residents of the city in which the vis
iting club plays. Five names to be
furnished by the local club visited, five
days prior to the game, and if a choice
is not made within forty-eight hours,
one of the five names of persons fur
nished by the local club to be selected
by them, which name shall be selected
by the opposing club, and the person
authorized to act.
Sec. 11, rule 7. Amend to read:
“The umpire shall not enter the in-
field while the hall is in play.”
Sec. 14, rule 7. It is the duty of the
umpire to call “dead ball,” when the
ball is stopped by an outsider, &c. ., as
provided in the section.
Sec. 15, rule 7. The last sentence in
this section is stricken out : “But no
game shall be forfeited by the failure
of the umpire to discharge his duties.”
I ts M oney V alue .—When a deal
er in farm produce receives shipments
in good order and of first quality, he
takes as much pride in showing them
as the farmer did in sending them ;
and he does not hesitate to ask from
10 to 20 per cent, extra because he
knows he can get it. Besides, it is
really to his advantage to have such
produce, because it helps him to se
cure the best customers and 1 hereby
to build up his business. This is plain
enough. The same advantage accrues
also to the farmer. For assorting po
tatoes and apples, for neatly dressing
and packing poultry, for sending onlj’
choice butter and large, fresh eggs,
time and care are required, and that
which is kept at home inay seem to be
a loss ; but in doing this wise, addi
tional care will be taken afterwards to
provide against anything that is not
saleable, so that a real money value
comes from being a better firmer.
The farmer who has a right idea of
his calling will aim to supply only
such customers as are particular and
who are willing to pay extra prices for
extra products. There are plenty of
such customers, and the demands they
make are far In excess of what farmers
are likely soon to supply.

A n I mportant I nvention .—Wil
liam L. Powleson, the engineer in
charge of Xhe boilers and machinery in
the Cosmopolitan Hotel, has lately re
ceived a patent for an improvement
in smoke-consuming furnaces. The
invention is attracting much attention
among furnace men and others, and Is
destined to exercise an important in
fluence upon all interests identified
with steam engineering. The inven
tion consists simply in carrying steam
from the drum through a pipe Into a
super-heater and conveying it thence
through smaller pipes under the fur
nace to four nozzles which are set in
the front of the fire chamber above the
burning fuel. Each of these nozzles
discharges a fan-tail Jet or spray of
hydrogen gas, spreading horizontally
across the burning fuel. Thus a com
plete mixture of the smoke and steam
is effected and the carbon in the form
er while burning intensifies the heat.
No smoke escapes, It being all con
sumed by this process. The flow of
steam is regulated by a stop cock to
the amount desired for burning the
smoke. Mr. Powelson having been
placed in charge of a furnace In which
he could get little or no draft, went to
work a year ago and made some ex
periments to remedy the difficulty.
While thus engaged the idea of intro
ducing superheated steam into the
furnace occurred to him, and after
several attempts to do so he at last met
with success. A saving of nearly
thirty percent, in the amount of fuel
required the absence of all soot from
the flues, and the rapid creation of in
tense heat are among the principal
fruits of this invention. Its applica
tion to the smelting of ores will great
ly cheapen the cost of reduction. The
patent is to be applied to the boilers
in the Palace Hotel and also in the
Mint.— Ch ron icle.
R ev . I. I). D river .—This divine,
who formerly resided in Jacksonville,
has again got his name before the pub
lic in connection with a matter of not
a most enviable character. According
to tho Willamette papers, it .seems
that his two daughters were out walk
ing one night last week with a couple
of Salem youngsters, when the latter
concluded it would be fun to burn
down an old tannery, so they set Are
to It and it was consumed. A reward
of $300 was offered for the apprehen
sion of the culprits, and it is said that
the son of Mr. Driver, who had learned
through his sisters of the matter, in
formed on the young men, in order to
secure the reward, and they were ar-,
rested and the Driver girls subpoenaed
as witnesses. Their father, hearing
of the matter, and learning that his
daughters had been in the company of
the young men at the time of the com
mission of the crime, flew into a ter
rible rage and most cruelly and hru-,
tally beat the girls with a large stick
until one of them was laid up from the.
severity of the punishment. The Sa*
lem community, according to the
Record, are highly incensed at the
conduct of Rev. Driver, and if all the
facts aro as stated he deserves the
fullest condemnation.
• -> »
T omato C ulture . —Au agricultural
exchange gives the following directions,
for the culture of this fruit: «When
about two inches high, and the danger
of frost Is passed; plant them out In a
sheltered situation, where they may
have the full influence of the sun. To
hasten the maturity of the first fruU
that sets, pinch off the extremities of
the tops, and all the secondary shoots
which afterwards appear above tho
flowers. When the desired number
are about half grown, commence strip
ping off the leaves, cutting off the new
shoots, so that, at length, the plants
may be completely bared of their
leaves, and the fruit left fully exposed
to the sun.”
O nly two Speakers have been long
er in the chair than Mr. BWae.
Henry Clay served tn the Twelfth,
Thirteenth, Fourteenth, Fifteenth, Six
teenth and Eighteenth Congresses.
Andrew Stephenson of Virginia was
Speaker of the Twentieth, Twenty-
first, Twenty-second and Twenty-third
Congresses. Two Speakers have ser
ved equal terms with Mr. Blaine—
Nathaniel Macon of North Carolinr,
who served In the Seventh, Eighth
and Ninth Congresses, and ex-Vice
President Schuyler Colfax, who served
in the Thirty-eighth, Thirty-ninth and
Fortieth Congresses.
How to S ucceed .—If your seat is
too hard to.sit upon, stand up. If a
rock rises up before you, roll it away,
or climb over it. If you want money,
earn it. If you wish for confidence
prove yourself worthy of it It takes
longer to skin an elephant than a mouse,
but the skin is worth something. Do
not be content to do what another has
done—surpass it. Deserve success and
it will come. The hoy was not born a
man. The sun does not rise like a
rocket, or go down like a bullet from a
gun; slowly but surely it makes its
round and never tires. It is as easy
to‘ be a leader as a wheel horse. If
the job be long the pay will be greater;
If the task be hard, the more compe
tent you must be to do It.
