The apparatus in question is q very
simple one, being made on the same
principle as the cutter Of q mower or
reaper, and tl% knives are worked By
means Of rods within the handles, these
in their turn being moved by a core
within long flexible tube, which is kept
In a rotary shaft, and wheels driven by a
stationary engine. The comb IS in the
form Of a segment Of a circle, about
three inches in diameter, with eleven
conicai shaped teeth. Each machine is
worked by shearer, and as the comb is
forced along the skin Of the animal the
fleece is cut. The machine can be run
either with steam or gas engine, or by
ordinary horse power, and does not easily
get out Of order.-Nev York Sun.

Gossip Concerning the Great
lightweight Match Thursday
Night.
The Needham-Myers twenty-round
contest at Washington rink Thursday
night is the chief topic of conversation
in sporting circles, and is attracting
good deal of attention throughout the
country, as the winner is to be backed
for 5000 for the lightweight
championship of America. Myers has
for some time had an open challenge to
meet any one, McAuliffe preferred, for
$500 to $1,000. If McAuliffe defeats
Dacey he can hardly afford to ignore the
challenge that will be made to him.
Meyer is expected to arrive Tuesday
with Alf. Kennedy, his hacker. Need
ham yesterday weighed 1921 pounds,
so he will be in condition to meet the
requirements of the articles of agree
ment that the men must weigh in Oh the
morning of the fight at 1873 pounds, give
or take three pounds. He has reduced
his weight about twelve pounds by the
careful system of training he has been
following for several weeks. The de-
mand for tickets indicates that there
will be a large attendance from other
cities. In addition to the delegation,
Kennedy will bring with him from
StreatOr, ILL.,, Meyers home, Parson Da-
Wis and party of board of trade men
and one from Chicago. j. d.

SHEEPsHEAD BAY, Sept. S.-Just a
sprinkle of rain, not enough to more
than moisten the track, scared lot of
owners into scratching the fields down
to raceable sizes. Starter Caldwell rein
stated Jockey Taylor before the first
race. The fayorite, Swift, got the first
race handily. The Haggin pair, Sal
fvator and Fresno, were most fancied
for the first of the stake races, the
3 Flatbush stakes. Salvador waited until
well into the home stretch when he
came away and won handily by
I. length, but failed to give Fresno the
place, Maidstone being head too
good for the colt. Prose was the most
! fancied in the Reaper'S stakes, but Mr..
Walden's My Own, 10 to l shot, who
was let in at ninety-nine pounds at the
last moment, made runaway race of it
: and won by four lengths, Santalene
getting the place, the same distance in
: front of Prose. 1t began to rain Just
after this race. EuruS, who likes heavy
going, was we'll backed, though Exile
was the favOrite for the New York
handicap. Exile gave EurnS a good
fight at the finish, but Eurus won by a
neck. Web-fOoted nags were needed
for the fifth race, when the rain
descended in torrents, and it grew al
most too dark to see the race. Garrison
dressed and weighed-in to ride Fresno
in the Flatbush handicap, but he was
three-fOurths of a pound overweight.
j. B. Haggin, however, would not per-
nit him to ride ''if he is an ounce over
weight" The troubles between the
Haggins and the Snapper" daily in

neither will be sorry when their bust

KANSAS CITY, Sept. S.-The game be-

very effective. Only two hits were
made by the Apostles, but they came at
a time when they were needed.
SoWders, too, pitched a great game,
the seven hits OF the Blues
being scattered through six innings.
The Kansas City players had no tiouble

corking two-base hit and Corbett's sin

five innings only fifteen of the visitors

CHICAGO, Sept. S.-Bustle and excite
ment prevailed at Washington park to-
day. 1t was the opening day of the
autumn running meeting. The weather
was simply delightful, vast crowd of
turf enthusiasts was present, the track
was in perfect condition and the bet
ting was spirited, while the racing was
far above the ordinary. The pro-
gramme consisted of five events,
one of which was a stake.
In only two of the races were the favor
ties successful. There was one unfOr-
tunate incident. 1t was in the fourth
race. A start had just been made.
Rhody Pringle, one of the competing
horses, stumbled and fell to his knees.
Moving like the wind in the rear of
Pringle was Glendelia. A collision
was inevitable, and both horses
were thrown to the ground. Mona
han, the boy who had the mount on
Glendelia, was badly injured, his collar
bone being broken, and, beside, he was
hurt internally. Matthews. the colored
lad who was astride Rhody Pringle, was
stunned, but quickly recovered. Mona
han was taken in carriage to the Mon
tana stables, and doctor was soon at
his bedside. He will not be able to don
the colors again this season.

Nothing but the worst kind of ball

team for the National league pennant.
1t has lead of nearly 100 points over

to grow wider than narrower. In fact,
it may be stated that the Windy City
nine will have to play pretty steady ball
to keep second place, on which Detroit
