drugstore last evening and asked permission
to consult the city directory, which the
public has grown to regard as essential a
part of the pharmacopeia as the blue pill
or pain killer. The grave. gray-bearded
proprietor waved his hand sedately toward
the counter, where a brand new directory
embellished with some unfamiliar brass
mountings, awaited the gentleman's search.
He seized the top cover and tried to open
the book. He failed in his attempt, and
proceeded to discover the reason why. 1t
took him but a moment to find that the
book was fastened to frame, and that a
slight but strong brass arm exteaded from
the base of the frame across the top cover
and held it down. He tried to coax the arm
into submission, but it refused to yield to
his persuasions.
He looked around the store for assistance,
and the druggists pretty daughter ap-
preached and wanted to know what the
a yery simple matter to open the book when
you know how" and she glanced to the left
of the directory, where the gentleman's eve,
followed her, caught sight of the familiar
slot, with the words lone cent beside it.
The hint was sufficient, and in few mo-
ments the gentleman learned just where he
should leave his train in order to reach !, ,S34
Park avenue.
The druggist said that the city directory
slot machine had been in vogue about
week, and that he regarded 1t as blessing,
not on account Of the money gained, but
because it reduced business nuisance to a
minimum. The young lady took another
view of it. "Ob, no." she said, sit isn't
the profit care about, but you haven't any
idea what lot of fun there is in it"

ESPECIAL TELEGRAM TO THE DISPATCH,

ESPECIAL TELEGRAM TO THE prsPATcH.l
CLEVELAND, August with the pros
pect of greater sensations than those of the
first two days, more than 10000 people were
at the Driving Park this afternoon to see
what the programme of the third day had in
store. The conditions for fast time were
most favorable, with the weather warm and
the track in the very best shape.
There had been mistake in the announce
ment that Axtell would try to beat the
record for aged stations, as the colts owner
had only agreed to trot against his own
mark, 2:l51S, made at st. Paul several weeks
since Even this was great task, but Axtell
was equal to It and he has now a record of
2l4sz The attempt was made soon after 8
o'clock, the great 3-year-old having first been
given a mile or so to warm him up. He was
greeted with several applauses as Williams
logged him down to score John Splan was
waiting with runner in another sulky to help
the pace. After coming down at q 230 gait
on the outside, Axtell went up to the dis
tance and was sent away first. As he came past
the stand for the first time he looked the won
der he is. His big, powerful limbs were moving
IN perIeCt harmony, anu ne CoNefeu Inc ground
with the big. sweeping stride peculiar to the
Wilkes breed Of trotters When he reached
the quarter the official timers noted 1t in 33}S
seconds. With the same ease the colt went
along the back stretch and at the half the time
was 1071z. The third quarter was unchanged
as to rate as the time was 1:4l at that point If
he could come from there in 50 seconds the
stallion record would be broken, but that was
not to be expected. Down the homestretch
came the wonder with not q falter in his gait.
Williams did not urge him, for he carried q
watch and knew he could easily do what he had
attempted. Strange to say. Axtell trotted the
last three in at the same rate of 2l5. SO that he
made the mile in 2:l4A. A great shout went
up as 1t was announced, while the colt and his
owner went modestly away to the stable. Ak
tell was not a bit distressed, and could have
done faster.
Immediately after Guy started to beat his
record of 2:12 w. j. Gordan, His owner, had
decided to have him trot without the custom
airy toe weights of two ounces each. 1t was a
bad move, as Guy was unbalanced and be-
haved badly in scoring. Sanders at last start
ing him far up the stretch so that he had to go
an eighth of a mile before getting the word.
Even with this handicap he flew to the quarter
in 32L seconds; the half in 1:05x; three-quar-
ters in 1857 and the mile in 2l03<. Had he
been properly weighed Sanders says he would
have beaten 2l0.
The regular events were sensational, as the
performance of Jack being most notable; not
only did he beat a good field, but he trotted
three very fast heats. the first in 2155z.
Following are the summaries OF the other

EMANCIPATION CELEBRATION.

How IL Was Observed at Homcwood Park.
Piaces-The Colored People All Our.
Yesterday was day of days among the
coolred people. Next to the LIST of Jan uary
the anniversary of their emancipation in
the United States-the LIST of August is hon.
ored among them. On the 1st of August
they celebrate the emancipation of the West
Indian slaves-the earliest step which the
colored race on this continent made toward
freedom.
First among the celebrations of yesterday
was that at Homewood Park. Early in the
forenoon parade was held, and gallant
cavalcade proceeded from Liberty Hall to
Homewood Park. Ajax Jones was chief of
staff, and j. H. Coates officiated as general
manager. At Homewood a crowd had as
sembled to witness the fun. A pleasant
picnic opened the proceedings, and then
some half dozen cavaliers entered the lists
for the ring piercing contest. One after
another the horsemen rode at full gallop
down the course. and tried to carry off the
ring on the points of their lances, but the
only ones who succeeded in accomplishing
this difficult feat were J. D. Field on his
gray charger, and Andrew jackson on Mr..
Boucherel's bay horse "Cap."
The contest having lasted long time, it
was decided to settle it by one mile hat
race, and the result was that Fields horse
beat the bay all to fits, and carried off the
prize. During the day the band of the
Duquesne Greys discoursed sweet music,
and-tell it not in Gath-a free and un.
limited supply of lager beer was generously
contributed by the festive judges of the
course.
A grand banquet was held in Liberty
Hall by the same company later, and two
Queens were crowned. Speeches, songs and
dances sped the time merrily.
At McKee's Grove affairs bore quieter
aspect. The Homewood Band and the
Twelfth Ward Twilight Drum Corps sup
piled the indispensable music. Broadax
Smith and Johnston, who were adyer-
tised to speak, did not appear, but their
places were taken by Rev. I'm. Morris and
Mr.. B. f. Stewart. The Rev. Morris rose
at P. NJ. and made a very happy speech,
narrating the progress made by the Afro
Americans since the war. He was succeeded
by Mr.. Stewart, whose oratory was concise,
original and in the highest degree inter
esting.
Proceedings closed at McKee's Grove
about $50, when q very exciting baseball
match was brought to satisfactory conclu-
sion.
A third celebration came off at Aliquippa
Grove, the holders being the members of
B. 7. c. Lodge 38.
General j. X. Moorehead Camp 135, S. of
", held a reception and concert in Lafay-
ette Hall, which lasted until midnight.

Harry Lyons Wins His Suit Against Won
Der Abe.
PHILADELPHIA, August 1.-Hazry Lyons,
the ball player, to-day won his suit against
President Won der Abe, of the St Louis Base
ball Club. and received judgment for 81 40.
The suit was the outgrowth of the champion.
ship of the American Association last year. A
prize of 81 900 in addition to the pennant was
offered to the team that should win the cham
pionship. Won der Abe paid II of his IA play
ers, but refused to pay Lyons and Shortstop
White. In response to a summons President
Won der Abe appeared before Magistrate Dur
ham today. He said the prize was offered to
the managers of the various clubs, and not to
the individual players. He thought 1t was en-
tirely optional with him whether he should
divide the money with the players or should
keep it all himself. He thought Lyons ard
White did not play good ball during the Asso-
citation season.
Ex-Manager Sullivan and PLAYER McCarty
were called to substantlate Mr.. Won der Abe.
They said they thought the prize was given to
the management of the championship club
They both thought, however. that Lyons did
play good ball. The magistrate gave judg-
ment for Lyons

About II o'clock last night a report
reached the city that riot had taken place

There was no foundation whatever for the
report, as there had been no trouble at the
place. A crowd of about l50 Italians, who
had been employed on the road, struck yes

of them attempted to work, but the others
prevented them. The men are now camped

Inning Contest.

WASHINGTON, August 1.-The Boston team
proved themselves svery troublesome to the
Senators to-day, but were finally disposed of IN
the tenth inning, when the home club scored
the winning run by Hoy, who took first on
balls, reached third on two sacrifice hits and
then home when Wise made a two Dagger.
The game from beginning 20 end was replete
with brilliant plays. Haddock's pitching and
Tom Daily's gilt-edged work were the most
conspicuous features. John Irwin, Hoy, Will
mot and Richardson made brilliant plays-the
latter accepting II chances without an error
The Bostons had clear lead up to the seventh
inning, when after chances had been offered to
retire the side without a run, Nash gave
Beecher first on an error and he went to third
on John Irwin's two bagger. The greatest ex-
citement of the game prevailed when Daily
lined the ball to right center which enabled the
Senators to tie the game, which they won. as
above described. Score:

that prevailed at intervals all day rendered the
Athletic ground very soft. but, by dInt of hard
work by the ground keepers. it was got in
pretty fair shape by 4:3o. Manager Sharsig
then announced his willingness to play, but
Captain Comiskey refused. Umpire Goldsmith,
when appealed to by Mr.. Sharsig to give the
game to the Athletics. declined to make any
decision. He said that. if the Athletics had
announced their willingness to play at 4 o'clock.

play, but, after that hour had passed he
thought it was optional with the visiting club.
