for the first time in the race he won. He
is a great big colt, by Isonomy, out OF
Thistle, so is appropriately named. His
owners are Sir Frederick tombstone and
Lord Arlington, both ''pals" of II. r. H.,
the Prince of Wales. Albert Edward
threw in for good stake, as he is very
fond of bit of a flutter when he has
dead cinch," and this they had proved
Common TO be.
But il is over the Derby that the big
haul will be made by England's heir
apparent. The stables are not nearly so
confident of winning the Two Thousand
as they were of the Derby. No one had
ever heard of Common until one day
the unknown'S name appeared in the
betting quotations. 500 to l against
Common (taken.)" This was speedily
followed by so to l and 80 to l, until, on
the eve of the "GuineaS," he stood at 20
TO l.
Then, after he loped in an easy win
ner, making hacks of the best three
year-olds in England, what rush these
was TO back him for the Derby! But
there was no 20's to l to be picked up
at this time. The best offer was 5 to
against him and the chances are that
there will be odds on him when the day
of the great carnival on Epson Downs
comes off.
They say the prince has backed Com
mon to win him an ordinary mans for
tune, and it is TO be hoped for his sake
that the good thing will come off, as our
future king is all but ''stony broke, "
and if he wasn't to be our future king
he would be absolutely so. If he wins
over Common he will only get back some
of his own money, as the bookmakers
have had bushels of his in the last few
years. The poor prince seems to get
landed over every ''dead-Sure-thing-and
can't be beat unless he falls down
dead" that has gone to help to break
the talent in the last ten years. He
wins at baccarat, but loses at racing"

WASHINGTON. d. c., May 22-Unless the
Secretary of the Treasury decides to con
tinue the A. per cent. bonds beyond the
date of their maturity, September first
next, without abatement of interest it will
be necessary for him to give notice to the
bondholders of his policy in regard 10 that
loan. This will have to be done under the
law. either in case he decides TO redeem the
bonds at maturity or in case he decides il
nest to extend them at reduced rate Of in
terest.
A circular on this subject will be issued
bv the Treasury Departmental few days.
1t will announce that the present rate OF
interest on the ~ per cent. loan will cease
September 1st, and will probably say that
he holders of such bonds as do not desire
their redemption at that date my secure
he continuance at the interest rate of , PEI
cent, thus allowing the owners the option
of retaining their bonds at a lower rate i
thew desire to do so, without placing The
government in the position OF asking fol
more time.

DIAMOND DUST.

In 81 games the Chicagos knocked out
- home runs. Ryan leads with four,
and Dahlen aud Wilmot are credited
with three each.
Latham was never in better form. He
bats terrifcally, runs like Sprlnter
and gets away with about everything
that comes into his territory.
The Chicagos are playing a great
game lust now. Arson is fortunate In
having no cripples TO depend upon.
When the "Old Man" comes east he
may be given a few surprises.

sentiment still holds sway. Ward shook

aggregation in the history OF the game.
Since they struck PittSburg and landed
in Cincinnati they have only won three
games up to Fridays contest in the
Queen City, one each from PittSburg,
Cleveland and Cincinnati. and lost seven.
In each case of defeat they have out
batted their opponents, and in many in
stances have made fewer errors. But
the errors that were made were most
disastrous. The secret of their trouble
lies in the fact that the team is crippled
for catchers. And right here is good
chance to show off the erudition Of
some of the base ball writer's on the
PittSburg press. The sporting editor
of the Commercial Gazette, without
cracking a smile or winking an eye,
writes:
Many of the base ball scientists have eX-
pressed an opinion that the New Works
would head off Chicago in the race for the
championship. They have played in hard
luck so far, because of the catcherS being
crippled. Keefe has done great work for
them behind the bat, out Timothy cannot
support some of the pitchers as the regular
catcherS of the team can. When they get
strengthened behind the bat you can look
list.
This is enough to make base bag
laugh. Timothy Keefe never caught a
game in his life. His occupation has al
ways been to bore holes in the air from
the pitchers box.
Wheeling people are interested in
three League clubs, the New Yorks.
because our tOwSman, the King of Short
stops, GlaSScock, is member OF the
team: the BoStonS for the reason that
their peerless fielder, Walter Brodie,
once played with the Wheeling nine;
and the PittSburgS because Miller and
Calvin are well known in this city.
Chicago still keeps a strong hold on
first place, with PittSburg close at her
heels. New York has moved up from
seventh to sixth place, not because she
has won games, but on account of others
losing. Following is the record Of games
nm m Friday.

Eleven Miners Killed.

BIRMINGHAM, Ala, May 22-At the
Pratt mines to-day an explosion of gas in a
shaft where convicts are worked, killed
ten negro convicts and one free miner
named Tom Moore. 1t is believed the men
had in some way knocked off plank from
door which stood across an old chamber
on which the wood gas" was written.
The gas rushed out and caught fire from
the lamp. Officers of the company went
TO the rescue and worked to save the men,
but were themselves suffocated and mar
rowly escaped, being dragged out uncon-
scious. The bodies of the dead have all
been recovered
