The Talent Badly scQOped in Trotting
Race-Drivers Unseated.
There was about the usual attendance at
the races yesterday afternoon. The Gay
was a delightful one, with a fresh, cool
breeze from the south, which added greatly
TO the comfort of all present. There was
music by the First Artillery Band between
the races and heats, the contests were spir-
ited and interesting, and there seemed to
be nothing wanted to make the afternoon
one of pleasure to all. The judges for the
dav were Directors LaRue, Green and
Boggs Timers, L. J. Rose, H. J. Agnew
and C. S. Crittenden.
Before the races the fast pacing mare
Cricke which swept the boards in the
Eastern circuit, was speeded around the
track, but no effort was made against time.
FIRST RACE.
The afternoons sport opened with the
trot for three -year-olds eligible to the 2:40
class Tne starters were Gregory's LyDeite,
Tietjen q We,son's Frank B., Funk's Lot
tery Ticket, and San Maieo Stock FARMS
Millie Wilkes. The lone hlly, Lynette.
was a great favorite, selling Just before the
race at 500 10 S35 for Frank, and S27 90 for
Lottery and Wilkes as a field. Lynette
made her debut at the beginning of the
circuit this summer, and won her races
right along but yesterday proved disap
pointment to her hackers.
First hest-The horses were sent away
on the second score. Lynette at once NOV
ing TO the front. She lost her feet on
rounding the turn, however. and fell away
back, Frank B. taking the lead. Between
the quarter and half he broke ard Lottery
Ticket passed him with a rush, Lynette
going up to third place. Then Lynette and
Wilkes also passed Frank, and on the far
turn Lynette closed the gap between her
and Lottery. bat she was eased up coming
down the reich, Lottery winning in 2:30
by about fifty yards, Wilkes third and
Frank distsnced.
Second heat-Lynette now brought $40
against $40 for the field. After three at
tempts the horses got the word. They
went together for about hundred yards,
when Lynette broke and fell back, Lottery
going TO the front, as before At the quar-
ter he led Wilkes BY a length, Lynette
thirty yards in the rear. Lottery widened
the gap to the half where he had four
lengths the best of it, Lynette still last by
six lengths. She did not better her posi-
tion much coming down the stretch, and
was pulled up at the drawgate, Lottery
winning, Mile Wilkes four lengths be-
hind. Time 2:3l3
After this heat the field brought $50
against 50 for the whilom favorite
Third heat-The horses got away to 8
good start, Wilkes taking the lead going
around the turn. Here Lynetie broke, as
usual, and fell out of the race, being left
thirty yards behind. at the quarter Millit
Wilkes led by two open lengths, which
Lottery reduced to half-length before iht
far turn was reached. Wilkes increased
her lead into the stretch to two lengths
and it looked as if the heat was hers to {
certainty, but when half way to the wir..
she left her feet and Lottery forged ahead
winning easily in 2:321. Lynette wa

mis- art, the Boston Herald says;
As a representative Irish comedian, de-
voting his attention mainly to those dramas
which deal with certain phases OF LIE IN
Ireland, he has now no superior. He has
youth, fullness of life and spirits, musical
voice, an unusually attractive personality
and rare powers OF dramatic expression.
He not only sings stiuely, but he has the
gift Of song, and can compose his own bal
lads-songs of sentiment and of homely
and domestic character, which appeal di-
rectly to the heart, and with much effect
iveness. His personal magnetism is ire
sistible. The tone and character of his
performance is as pleasing and as agreeable
as his acting is commendaole Heis never
coarse or vulgar. In his hands the Irish
character is never permitted TO descend to
low level in order to catch the laughter
or the applause of the unthinking. There
is no buffonery, no burlesque, no misrep-
resentation in his characterizations. His
points are made by the exercise of legiti-
mate comedy methods; his fun is pure and
invigoFsting, and his wit has the flavor of
the soil from which it springs. When he
began his career in this kind of work he
discarded the conventional Irishman of the
stage ano went to the original, as he is seen
in his native land, and studied him care
fully, with view of representing him with
accuracy and fidelity to nature

ToaoAlns Old Crock to Modern Greelss.

TeaoAins Old Greek to Modern GreelOs.
The most interesting part Of our con-
versaSion with the head master Of the
Chalk school was on the subject Of tho
GLASSES and tho course Of education p,lr-
sued. It was amusing to investigate how
a Greok teaches Greek and how Greek
boy learns the first clements Of that COM
merce in which he will doubtless become
80 expert in after life.
There are eight separate classes at
Chalk, Of which the most elementary,
for boys Of s, teaches only modern Greek,
prose and poetry, besides the elements Of
mathematics, French, geography and the
fine arts The second class introduces
some simple phrases in ancient Greek for
parsing, commences natural science and
teaches Roman and Byzantine history.
The third class aspires to Xenophon and
the fourth brings into the course of stu
dies elementary Latin phrases and Greek
history. On reaching the fifth class the
pupil is introduced to Plato, and com
mences his commercial education with
bookkeeping, and also adds Turkish 10
the list of his studies. The sixth class
learns Demosthenes, Thucydides, Herod-
otus and Homer, also logarithms and
shorthand. The seventh class conposes
Greek verses in the ancient tongue, and
adds to the other abtruse subjects phys
ical science, dynamics and modern his
tory with special reference to the eastern
question.
l was beginning to wonder what could
possibly be left for the top class to learn,
when the head master abruptly con-
cluded by stating that his finished schol-
airs aimed at perfection in the foregoing
subjects, and only added to the list logic
and political economy. l expressed sur
prise at the little attention given to
modern languages, except French and
Turkish, in the course which processes
to be commercial, but the master told
me that the young Greeks of CONSTANT
nople are born polyglots. English and
German may be learned as extras, but
French was the only language they cared
to teach classically and accurately

HAVE you ever thought that your
time is your capital? Our perform
ances are measured by the time that
we have. And the fruits of our
labor is really to be compared to the
interest on our investment. If we
place our money in reckless way,
we are liable to lose not only the
interest but the principal. And so
if we waste our time, what can we
produce The value of a man in
his relation to society is measured
by his usefulness. Ii he does moth
ing. he is worse than useless, be-
cause he becomes burden that the
other members must support. If he
is self-supporting, he rises in the es-
timation of the community. But is
is not until he becomes a producer
and helps to strengthen the edifce
that he is of real value to his fellows.
This maxim is true as the day is
long: That to utilize Our lives to

A MISER'S DRESS.

A SHABBY MILDIoNAIRE.-Mrs.
Hetty Green has enjoyed the repu-
tation for a long time of being the
most shabbily dressed millionaire
who wanders within the precincts of
Wall street, says the New York
World, and any ono who has seen
her and made comparison mental
y with the appearance of mechan-
les wife going to market Saturday
is convinced that her reputation is
well deserved. Russell Sage wears
inexpensive clothes, but they are
not only neat but usually have the
appearance of being recently pur-
chased. The only millionaire rival
Mrs. Green has in..point Of shabbi-
biness is old Joe Robinson, who was
one of the contractors engaged in
the construction of the Union Pa
cifc railroad, and is said to be worth
100000. He was down in Wall
street yesterday progressing along
the thoroughfare with the assistance
OF his crutches, as the genial old
fellow is lame, dressed IN an old
suit OF gray clothes and without an
overcoat. He doesn't wear any over
coat because it represents an expen-
diture of money he is not willing to
make. His whole outfit, including
hat and boots, would not command
$3.50 at any well regulated pawn
shop. He is one of the few stingy
millionaires who are perfectly good
natured in their stinginess. He il
not cross or grabbed, but greets
everybody he knows with the ut
most geniality. He and Sidney Dill
lon are very good friends, but Meth
er the arguments of Mr.. Dillon nor
any one else can spur him on to in
vest money in wardrobe. The
story is tod of his seeing friend on
the street not long ago in converse
ton with a gentleman whom he did
not know. He went up to the two
men and was about to speak, when
the man who was stranger to him
turned and said he was very sorry
he had no small change. The friend
explained the situation, although he
was somewhatsembarrassed, and the
stranger extended profuse apologies
to the millionaire whom he had mis-
taken for beggar.
