Big Funeral Demonstrat ton.

ST. PETERSBURG, May 5.--The fun
eral of Schelgonow, the well-known
Russian political economist, was
made the occasion of great demon

demonstration, and several of them
were afterward dismissed from their

How the Wheeling Boys are Hustling in
Oregon.

Oregon.
In a recent game between the Port
land, Ore, base bail team with which so
many Wheeling boys are cOnnected) and
the Seattles, the Seattle Telegraph says:
The Portands presented rather new
makeup. Abbey was in centre, OS-
borne in right, Darrah in short, and
Lytle behind the bat. And it ought to
be said right here that although Mr..
Lyle may be catcher he could not
have caught trout with dynamite yes
terday. He only had seven passes in
one inning. Darrah and Motz also did
some very nice work, and Glenalvin
made a great running catch. 1t was not
their day and they were not in 1t. SANDY
McDermott was abused a little by Glen
alvin, but he umpired IA nice game. The
Portlands were knocked out. They
only made three runs TO Seattle's seven.
These three runs were made by Lyle,
George and Osborne.
Jesse Burkett, late of the disbanded

4 Pottery Achievement.

Miss Helen NJ. Harper, a Lonhuda
Art Pottery decorator, has just taken
from the Steubenvile Pottery compa-
ny'S rose kiln the most beautiful piece
of decorated pottery ever produced in
that city. The piece is a jardinier OF
Haviland china. but the decoration is
after the Royal Worcester order. The
piece went through the fire three times
and came out perfect. The decOratio Is
are chrysanthemumS and wild asters in
enamel (overglaze) colors and are put
on so delicately that there is not sim
gle bad line TO mar the ensembled
beauty. And it all comes from Miss
Harper's excellence in drawing, which
degree of perfection she has reached
only by persistent effort from childhood.
The most delicate line is perfect, the
coloring sweet and tender, while the
composition. a factor in art in which
Miss Harper excels, displays spirit
that obtains in all her work. This jar
DINER is her masterpiece and she spared
neither expense nor pains in its produc-
ton. The GARDINER will be placed on
exhibition,
