of actual low life" No matter what the causes

A remarkable story comes from Los An
geles. 1t is told by an old prospector. He
says he has seen living descendants of the
ancient clif.dwellers in mountain cave in
New Mexico. His statement is corroborated
by others who have seen one of these links
between the present and the prehistoric past.
A party will shortly start out for the pur-
pose of further investigating the matter,
and if they capture one of these pygmies it
will afford the chance of lifetime for
some enterprising museum manager.

A COSTLY MISTAKE.

The Brooklyn- Baltimore Game Postponed
on Account of Threatening Weather.
NEW YORK, April 2S-One of the largest
crowds Of the season-between 900 and Il, 900
persons, Manager Wallace says-went to-day
to Ridgewood Park to witness the scheduled
game between the Brooklyn and Baltimore
teams. Neither team appeared and the vast
throng, after much grumbling, melted away.
The grounds were in good condition, in spite of
the recent rains. President Byrne, Of the
Brooklyn club, was seen at his Office at Wash
ington Park, and said: "At noon the weather
was so threatenin: that did not think game
could be played. and so notified the Baltimore
team and our own players"
The mistake cost the home team several
thousand dollars. The Giants tomorrow open
their season at st. George, playing the Wash
ington team.

ESPECIAL TELEGRAM TO THE DIsPATcH.i
BRADDocK, April 2S.-The mysterious
disappearance of 1S-Year-old John Turney
at the Carnegie blast furnaces last Wednes-
day night is matter that furnishes consid-
able gossip among the workmen there. At
nearly midnight he was at his post of duty
wheeling brick from car to some bricklay-
ers who were repairing break in a smoke
fue near the stack of furnace A. His route
was over the top of one of these hues. and at
The hour stated it caved in and young
Turney has never been heard of since.
There are many conjectures offered as TO
what became of him. Some think he left
his work and ran away, while others say he
was swallowed up in the fue and cremated.
The latter appears to be most probable, as
the circumstances surrounding the case in
dicate. Your correspondent visited the
father of the missing lad at Port Perry to-
day. In speaking of the sad mystery, that
gentleman said:
1 am satisfied that my boy was burned to
to think that such was the case, but l am more
fully convinced now than ever, since strips of
his clothing that were picked up about the fur
mace have been brought home aud shown to
was pay day and my boy brought home his
wages in the evening. This satisfies me that
he did not go away. He was wheeling
brick across a smoke-hue which, in my
opinion was not safe for anybody to tread upon.
Underneath them is roaring flame of gas con-
tinuously, which leaps out from the top of the
stack with pressure that is amazing. When
the explosion occurred the men working near
\ it ran away. When they returned there was a
wheelbarrow standing on one side of hole
{ where the cave-in had occurred The handles
Of the wbeelbarrow were partially burned,
and my son has never been seen since that hour.
When he did not return home in the
morning I went over to the works and discov-
cred that the blast was still in the flue and no
attempt had been made to find out whether he
had fell in or not. When 1 complained of this
how. replied that his bones could be. They
finally concluded to investigate, but it was too
late. He must have had an awful death, and
when think of it it almost staggers me. But
had only gotten portion of the poor boys
remains would not feel so badly as Inow do.
