Kentucky horse in a blue velvet riding
Jacket he had just taken his cap of his
head and was resting, for he had apparently
been riding fast. His white beard shone out
the more like silver against the fresh green
leaves Of the spring, and he sat more like q

him on his knees and hands across the car

since 1t has been in continuous motion There
Is not much fat about Bancroft-he is
made up of skin, bone and sinew. He still
works, and walks as well as rides, and he
seems to have the perpetual motion Of the

GRATUITOUS ADVICEJ

Ex-Secretary Samuel Fessenden Talks
 About the Letters He Received.
 Samuel Fessenden, who was secretary of the last republican national committee, and is stil member of that organization for this state, tells some odd stories about letters he had received since the adjourn ment of the national convention. The men with propositions are innumerable in every campaign, but they seem to have begun early this year. He was offered by cranks whole states for merely nominal sums, while a number of countrymen, who seemed to have been dazed by the cry that money is all there is in politics, demanded small fortunes for carrying towns with less than 300 voters all told. Mir Fessen- den says he also received over 100 letters from persons applying for work at the national headquarters, where less than twenty men ordinarily comprises the en- tire force. One proposition made by an enthusiastic young man, who is not yet a voter, was that his expenses be paid to go to England and ferret out the Golden clubs disbursements to America to sell their country to English free-traders This was not considered bad idea for a young head.

WORLD OF SPORTS.

The Buffalos have released old Jack Remsen.
 In four games last week Joe Battin made nine safe hits.
 That '.boy" Joe Battin has his eye on the ball beyond doubt He not only cracks out singles, but occasionally in dulges in home run and a three-bagger. It is said on the best of authority that prominent national league managsr is casting longing eyes at Sir Joseph. His third base work is wonderful.-Sportlng Life.
 Corcoran, of the Jersey City club, says that if the Chicagos were transferred to Jersey City and given the name of the place, Newark, with its less skilled players, would deseat them right along. It ''goes" now that Newark is Jersey Citys Jonah. The two teams are evenly matched, but often right in the face of victory Newark steps in and secures the game. The news papers and people of the two cities quarrel over the merits of their respective teams, and the games are always for blood
 President 4. G. Spalding of the Chicago club, has now fully decided upon the trip to Australia this winter. All the arrange ments have now been made, except the signing of the full list of players, The idea is to take two clubs composed of the best ball players in the League and Association. The two clubs will be under the personal management of Capt Anson, and will start west immediately upon the close of the league season. After playing a farewell game in Chicago they will go to Denver, and thence to San Francisco, playing in each city. The first practical steps in the scheme were taken Friday, when Pfeffer, Williamson and Burns signed contracts to make the trip. The contracts date from the close of the league season to April b, 1889.

Campana plays base ball as is base ball, he does there are no flies on that player; he don't allow flies on him; no sir-ee. It takes pretty tight pinch to get Campana rattled, it does. No, sir; he don't get rattled. It also takes a hot, hard and rapid moving ball to get past him, too, and when he goes to bat he is a terror to most pitchers. Yes, sir, he is.

All of the Catholic societies, accompanied by the Tingue man ufacturing company's band, marched to the church and took part in the ceremo- nies. The Rev Fathers Zones, of this city, and Kennedy, of Birmingham, were the chanters; Rev Father Curtin, of this city, cross bearer, and the Rev Father Kelly, of Ansonia, master of ceremonies.

B. Shoninger & Co.

Some of the things we do for the improvement of Trade; keep only First Class Pianos and Or gans, known everywhere as Standard Goods. We sell them at the lowest possible prices and most favorable terms. Weber, Shoninger, Emerson < Wheelock are our leaders any one of which will in every way give satisfaction and prove a source of joy in any family. Among the things we do not do is this: Never annoy people, who are not ready to buy. or lie about our neighborS goods, but willing to accord all a fair valuation in the market. Neither do we have one price to of fer and another to sell by as in the case of the Shoninger Piano offered for $50 by JIM. Kellogg, who, when the sum was rendered him refused 1t on the plea that some one in the country had promised to look at it in the future. Shoningef Pianos being in such demand, and his supply linn
 ted with poor chances of duplication, we sug- fact remains that one minute it was for sale and the next it not. The public left to judge of the business integrity of such dealings. Lastly we manage our own business honestly, fairly and le ultimately; pay dollar for dollar promptly; fur nish our own Bank Vaults for Leases taken from Installment Customers without the aid of Sher ifs to collect the same. Thirty years standing guarantee of our stability. Those Shonnger New Style Upright Pianos are elegant in design and finish. We make them and get the price way down. Warrant them tirst-class. All the rest of the dealers are blowing about them which proves that they are A No 1, otherwise no abuse would be necessary Remember an agents nev- CT runs down a Piano to you unless it is a source of sharp competition. Examine our Shon- inger.
