The Montreal cricketers won the opening match of their Philadelphia tour, when they defeated the Merion Cricket club's team by three runs and five wickets. Bob Ingersoll, regarded as one of the best pitchers in the 'Northwest league, has been sold by the Van- couver club to the Cincinnati Nation- als for $3,000, delivery to be made next fall LE At St. Thomas Frank Shiughnessy manager of the Ottawa team, was fined ten dollars by 'Acting Magis- trate Sanders on a charge of using abusive language towards Josesph Coffey, of Port Stanley, who was a spectator at Monday's game in St. Thomas. Second Baseman Thompson, who was sent to Peterboro on option by Toronto, has been cast looses by the Petes. Toronto has also given him his unconditional releases. Winnineg Wanderers cricket club PROTECTORS OF PLANT LIFE Figures That Support The "Plumage ; Bill. James Buckland read a paper be fore the members of the Royal Co lonial Institute at the United Service Institution, in which some notable statements were made as to the dan ger to plant life throughout the world -which is being caused by the wanton destruction of birds for the sake of their plumage. Few people, he said, know how vast are the tumbers of insects, how a mazing is their power of multiplica tion, and how insatiable their vor acity. The hop-bine aphis, for in stance, produced thirteen generations in one year, and the average num ber produced by each female was 100 Assuming that every female at ma turity produced its full compliment of young, it has been computed that in ope year this inseét would have multiplied to the inconceivable num ber of ten sextillions of individuals.' The unvestricted increase of the gypsy moth would be so great that a single pair would produce caterpillars enongh 'in eight years Lo devour all the foliage of the United States. A single pair of Colorado beetles would, without check, increase in one season to 60,000,000. insects, Mr ! has decided to go to Toronto to try again for the J.

McCafferty last year, and his good work this season under Jimmy Hickman, Tnanager of the =. A. C> team, led to his being secured by the Toronto outfit. A hitch has arisen in connection with the proposed disposal of the Ottawa Amateur Athletic club It appears that there is a dispute be- tween the association, which owns the bullding, and the club itself, as to how much stock the latter con- trols. The meeting scheduled for last evening was postponed until Friday, and it is likely that the *ourts will be asked to decide the question of ownership. Meanwhile the club is still running and the sit- uation, has reached a deadlock. Yesterday J. R. Binkley was unan imously elected manager of the Ar- gonaut senior foctball team, and A D.

ALLEGED 13TH WIFE. Charge Against An Actor. New York, July 10.--Lionel Law- remce, a great-grandson of a naval captain whose words, "Don't give up your ship," are inscribed in every American school history book, is the defendant in an action for the annul ment of his marriage with Mrs. Ernes- tine May Doychart. The marriage was celebrated on August 13th last. Five months lajer, Mrs, [Lawrence declares, she discovered that she was the thirteenth wife of the defendant. She gives the names of ten of his alleged wives, declaring that he married in 1889 Jessie Cun ningham at San Francisco; in 1891, Dorothy Drew; in 1895, Leddy de Vynne; in 1896, a lady named Brinker- hoff; in 1897, Jessie Barnes and Ernes tine Kingston; and in subsequent vears Lilltan Bond, Carrie Rudolph, May Heldon, Reta Winfield, and three others. ent "] am bringing this suit," deéTared Mrs, Lawrence, "to exonerate myselt in the eves of the world. After we were married | read that he bad been married five times and asked his fam- ily abou. it. They said it was merely newspaper talk. I investigated the matter and found that I had been greatly humiliated in marrying a man who was virtually a polygamist. 1 am, therefore, suing for an annulment of the marriage." Mr. Lawrence admite three of the marriages, but says he is totally un able to recall the other all alli- ances. He is fifty-five years of age and adopted a theatrical career after an injury to an eve had compelled him to leave, the American navy. Perhaps if we knew what was in store for us to-morrow we would be much more miserable to-day.

It is bird life which, by its predom- jnating insect diet, is the most in dispensable balancing force in nature (Titmice have been seen to make forts fo sixty trips an hour to their nests with their begls filled with all kinds of insects.

Methods of a Fast Disappearing Tribe | of Vampires. | The loan shark is being rapidly driv- | en out of Canada. The newspapers have forced legislation making him | practically impossible. Yet in some | of our Canadian centres these nefar- ious persons still flourish. Once in their clutches, it is an almost hope- less struggle. They use an elaborate system of spies to get their victims. Spies everywhere! Spies who are well-dressed and spies who are ill dressed! Spies who look like gentle men and spies who are obviously not! And the clever moneylender knows exactly whether he can "fleece" his customer, whether he can safely lend him money or not, or whether the transaction is likely to turn, out a bad bargain. ese spying touts work on a com- mission basis. Some of these money- lenders' spies move in good society. One hears that an acquaintance 1s hard up and wants to borrow some money. In casual conversation he lets it be known that he can oblige his acquaintance with an introdue- tion to a moneylender. As a matter of "business" he hints at a commis sion, which is willingly granted by the impecunious one. A letter having been drawn out and signed, the pr. who, of course, knows all about his acquaintance's finances, makes his way to his moneylending employer from whom he gets another commis- sion on the loan. The tout gives the moneylender a full account of his prospective client, his family, their position, and the likelihood of his being able to "touch" the father if the son should refuse ot be unable to pay up. And it is sur- prising what large sums parenis pay in order to keep these matters quiet. Suppose the sum borrowed is $2,000. The spy gets Spying Soom $300 to $400 out of it, all of whi f course, the unfortunate borrower to pay by way of interest, He si a prom-+ issary note for $3,000, and in return gets about $1,600 cash! And the $3,000 bas to be repaid in three months! But sometimes a man comes inte the office straight away, with no such introduction, asks for a loan. That is never a very pleasant busi ness when one has to face an experi- enced moneylender. You relate your biography, your debts, say' where you are employed, what salary you are getting, and, in fact, lay bare half the secrets of your existence. You go out feeling jaunty, for the oblig- ing gentleman has told you "if every- thing is all right you will get the money to-morrow." Here steps in another grade of spy. He is not well-dressed enough to pass as a gentleman. He loafs after you, verifies your address, gets into conver- sation +with neighboring tradesmen, and even has a chat with your ser- vant whenever it is possible. He sees you then as other people see you and not from your own self-satisfied point of view, which you have given to the moneylender. If you have a reputa- tion for being slow in paying your bills, for dodging your just debts, and so on, the spy knows it and your loan is refused. "In order that the spy's expenses shall be found in any case, you will probably have already put something down as a preliminary fee. Needless to say, you never see'that fee again. The spy is as wide awake as they make them, for if you manage to beat him and get a loan when you are not capable of paying it back, it is the spy who suffers, and so he takes very few chances. Now and then people who get into the clutches of the moneylenders are pressed into his service as spies. He is mercifu! to them as long as they can introduce new custom. If a friend, who is also on his hooks, con- templates a "moonlight flit," then the usurer knows it and the borrower is surprised to find that his new address is perfectly well known, One class of mgneylender deals chiefly with wary women. Loans are apparently willingly lent them, but not without an inquiry before hand by the ever-useful spy as to the status of their husbands. These poor women are harassed right and left by the spies when they cannot pay up. They are followed about have to put up with all sorts of menaces and insults, under threats of telling | their husbands. They will call at the house, they will meet her casually in the streets, and everywhere at all times she will feel that she is in their grip, and will make the utmost sacrifies to pay extortionate sums to keep things quiet. Many s home has been ruined in this way. There are, | € of course, many moneylenders whe are straight and who do their best to their elients. Bui there are many black sheep im the flock, the moneylending laws will have to be made considerably stricter before this system of blackmail is done away | with. --Montreal Standard. adians.
