Mr. De Lane, who is to appear at Bunnelps Museum this week, is certainly prodigy in his way No matter what subject is pre- sented to him, he will at once respond and without the least apparent effort, always rhyming whatever he has to say. It is not what is known as machine poetry,' but the formation of lines and sentences is cor rect, the words are we'll chosen and tho rythm absolutely perfect. He is really al intellectual wonder and gave great pleasure to the audience last evening. Next Satur day the Good Samaritans will have an ic' cream and strawberry festival, the admission to which will be free

was known all along the Mississippi and His plantations extended for miles along the river and were titled by thousands of slaves.
 When he died his estate was worth $3, OOO,- 900. His only son inherited this vast wealth. Like all young men of that day who had rich fathers he was given the benefit of Europe an education and for years travelled on the continent with 8 private tutor. He had been bountifully supplied with money, but when his fathers death threw all his wealth into his possession his extravaganza knew no bounds. The scion of the rich Southsrner, he had carried letters which placed him on terms of intimacy with the nobility. Few men of title could boast as ample fortune and none could excel him in lavishness. It was in the theatrical world, however, that he attracted most at
 tention. The leading lights of the Parisian 1t meant valuable presents. Costly gifts of diamonds and jewelry to some favored ar tiste were a common thing, while his ex- travagant dinners astonished even the gay French capital. One supper in particular which he gave to the art world of Paris is said to have cost between $S,OOO and $1O;- 00O With Patti and other famous singers he was on terms of familiarity, and in his later days nothing gave him more pleasure than to recount anecdotes of his social inter. course with them. Few men were more competent critics in matters of music and art. Even his colossal fortune could not stand such drains, and when the war came it swept away the remnant. From mil lionaire Major ''Jimmie" Dick Hill de- scended to dependent upon his relatives for the absolute necessities of life. In his wild career of extravaganza he met and married an actress, an Italian lady. The union was not happy one. She was a Catholic and three years ago instituted proceedings in New York for separation. The case attract ed great attention at the time and column after column of the press was filled with ac- counts of Major Hills romantic life. He be- came writer for the papers, particularly those of sporting proclivities. His nom de plume ttClimax'' in the Turf, Field and Farm made him familiar to turfmen all over the country. Nearly two years ago he received one day telegram stating that a gentleman had died suddenly in Memphis and left him his sole heir. This proved to be his old tutor, on whom he had spent thousands while in Europe. The bequest erty in this country and England and placed him again in comfortable circumstances. Major Hill was a familiar figure on the streets of Nashville and was exceedingly interesting in conversation. He would never express 8 regret that he had squandered his millions, but was exceedingly bitter when speaking of friends in his prosperity who had deserted him when his money was gone.

STCUK FAST IN QUICKSAND. Seven Hours i'm a We'll And no One to
 Think of a Rope.

BosToN, June 21-Archie Dunton was digging a we'll at the Highlands yesterday morning, when he struck quicksand about four feet below the surface. In second he was stuck fast. He cried for help and pc liceman appeared. The officer hunted up an old oyster can, and with this attempted to dig the helpless man out. Finding that his efforts were useless, and that soon as the sand was removed Archie sank the deep CT, he went for assistance, and soon returned with five brother officers. They held long conversation and crowd began to gather. No one seemed to know what to do. gang of city employees working near were called on for help. When they arrived there were several hundred people gathered about the we'll Various means for saving the man from his terrible position were suggested and tried without avail. Finally some one thought of a rope. It was 8 stroke of gen. ius They lowered it down and Archie tied it about his chest, which was above the sand. Six strong men grasped the other end, and by exerting themselves to the utmost finally extracted him after he had been in the we'll for seven hours. He was not in jured and walked to his home.

Exceedingly interesting services were held at the Church of the Messiah yesterday. In the morning special service was held for the children The pastor, Rev.

After his address the beautiful service of conservation was engaged in and twenty-one little ones were baptized. In the evening the Sunday school gave a con cert. Mr. Ames, the superintendent, con - ducted the exercises. After singing and a prayer by the pastor the children recited All the pieces spoken were admirably ren- dered and the entire exercises were unusually interesting. The audience was large one and filled the church. Inside the chancel there was 8 profusion of beau tifuI flowers artistically arranged On the left was cross and anchor four feet high of solid pinks and tipped with jacque- minots In the center large bank of ever greens and wild running vine out of which rose cross pointing up to a large star of field daisies.

A NOTED WILL CASE.
4 Woman Loses a Big Stake After
 Long Suit.

MUsKEGoN, June 21.-The celebrated Hackley will case came to an end last evening by the jury finding verdict against Hattie Williams, the claimant. One year ago Por- ter Hackley of the lumber firm of c. H. Hackley & Go. died and left an estate worth between Sl50, ,OOO and $2O0, ,OOO, which was willed to his niece, Mrs. Read Davis, of this city. Suit was commenced by Hattie Will Hams in the circuit court to break the will, but the case of the complainant broke down and was taken out of court before it reached the jury. The present suit was begun about ten days ago in which the woman set up the claim that she was the widow of Porter Hackley. The case has been watched with great interest and over ons hundred witnesses were sworn. The best legal talent was en- gagged on both sides. The case went to the jury Friday evening at 5 o'clock. On the first ballot the jury, it is said, stood to 3 against the claimant. After the jury had been out twenty-four hours they reached a verdict on the 120th ballot that the claimant was not the wife of Porter Hackley in life, and is not now his widow. This verdict de- feats the claimant out of her dover interest in the estate, amounting to 10000, and probably ends the case.

 HARvARD,S. VICTORY.
 The Contest Saturday with Colum bta.
 NEW LONDON, June 21.-Harvard varsity won the four mile. straightaway over Colun- bia Saturday on the Thames by nearly a third of mile. The crimson crew seemed to have it all their own way. Their time for the four miles was 24 m. 27 s.; Colum- bias 26 m. g s. The time was better than that usually made by the crews on this wa ter. The race was rowed at slack tide with very fresh head wind blowing for the first two miles. Harvard took the water first and from the start began drawing away from Co., lumbia, putting in stroke at the rate of Al for the first minute, Columbia making 34 in the meantime. Although a crowd of the Columbia students on the steamer Cygnet yelled themselves hoarse with "Columbia ) their crew seemed steadily dropping astern. The Yale crew followed the oarsmen in their launch.
 At the half-mile flag Harvard had dropped her stroke to 39, while Columbia had run hers up to 36, yet the crimsons were by this time fully four lengths of open water in the lead. Harvard continued to pull 39 strokes and Columbia had run frantically up to 40 The race was now conceded to be over. Co lumbia's work grew poorer and her No mar fouled his oar and wabbled in his seat badly At the mile and half Columbia was pull ing 36 and Harvard 34 strokes. Columbis spurted to 40, but her No. 3 was again of and there was no gain.
 At the three mile stake Harvard was al of a quarter of mile ahead and she crossed the finish line fully third of a mile in ad vance. Columbia stuck manfu1ly to a 3 stroke and came in amid the piercing shriek | of number of yachts around the course Following is the time of the race by miles: Harvard Columbia
