without endangering his hold on the throne
is a remarkable fact, and affords a strong con-
trast to the former situation. During the first
two years of his reign, as the Times CORES
pondent. reminds US, the Prince never quilted
Bulgaria, His visits to Austria and England
are. considered by the Bulgarians as most sue
%oessfui, and his reception by the Queen and
by the Emperor Of Austria are looked upon
as almost equivalent to the formal recognition
which is so a%rdently desired by Prince Ferdi-
nand's subjects. 1t will be curious to see
whether the Russian intrigues in favour of his
deposition viii be continued. We fear that it
Is only too likely. Not only the Car but all
Russians feel about Prince ferdinand as a rich
msn feels about a beggar who sits at his gate
and defes him every time he goes out. The
more the rich man is in the wrong, the greater
hls rage and his determination to drive away
the beggar.

It has become known that the purchaser of
the Althorp Library is Mrs. Rylands, the
widow of the millionaire of that name who
died IN 1879, and that she intends to present
it to Manchester. During the last two years
Mrs. Rylands has spent some 820, 900 in buy
ing books with a view to founding a great
library, and these added to the Althorp col
lection will make a magnificent gift. We are
glad that Manchester rather than London is
to get Lord Spencer's books, for We dislike
the centralisation of all the great treasures
in the Capital. The more great pictures and
great libraries there are IN the provincial
towns the better. A house is spoilt by hav-
ing all the books or pictures in one room,
and SO is a country. It is curious to think
that the sale Of Lord Spencer's books would
have made him fairly q rich man even il he
had been penniless. He will nave $4,000 a
year more with his shelves empty than he had
whom they were full. In the case of a great
proprietor, this extra 500 a year, not
from farms, may mean the difference between
riches and uneasy position

A SuSDiCiouS Case

WILLIMANTIoyA Aug 24.-Advices just received in this town state that Mrs Or. rin N. Young, who caused a sensation in Plaintield few weeks ago, by elop. ing with John E. Paine, is dead at Napoleon, o. The couple had frequent jars and soon after their arrival in Ohlo, Mrs Young was taken violently i'll. Paine declared that his companion was suffering with rheumatism, and after turning over all her jewlery and per sonal effects to Paine, Mrs Young died, An investigation was made by the au- thorities and the result is that Paine has been arrested for causing the death of Mrs Young by method of slow poison ing. The couple went under the name of Mir and Mrs w. H. Browne.
 Paine was greatly disliked in this place. He secured a considerable amount of insurance money on very suspicious fire in his variety store and decamped with Mrs Young. It is not known whether the family of the woman will take any steps to bring the body. of Mrs Young east, as at the time of the elopement they publicly de- nounced her.

 Hartford Races,

The Opening Day Good One at the
 Hartford Races.
 Fully $500 people saw the races at Charter Oak park yesterday. The weather was pleasant, the track was in splendid condition and the racing was interesting. All three of the races Were captured two of them. His Nightingale won the 2:19 trotting race and his Robert J. won the free for all pace. The third race, the 2:25 trot, was won by Darlington, after that horse had been knocked out of the first heat by an ac- cident. Darlington broke at the first turn in the first heat. Guy Miller, the driver, tried to get out of the way of Jessie Sheridan, but i'll some way they got together and Jessie's foot struck into the wheel of Darlington's sulky. The wheel was WTenched off, Miller was pitched out and the horse was thrown down. Nandenburgh, who was driving Jessie Sheridan, had to bring her to a standstill. Only RoS9 Filkins and Ship man finished the heat. Clay Forest was taken from the track before the heat was started, on account of his bad be- havior in scoring. As the accident seemed due to no ones carelessness or bad intent, both horses were permitted ny the judges to start in the next heat. Grants Abdallah lowered the track record by taking the third heat of the pacing race in 2:11. The best previous performance on the Charter Ook track Was by Little Brown Jug about ten years ago, when the mile was done in 2:114. Many of the finishes were close and exciting.

'OId Sports" Sorrow,

There were traces of sorrow mingling with those of hardship and age on the face of "Old Sport" Campana as he made his customary rounds of the Clark street resorts yesterday. He dld not push the sale of his stock of chewing gum with hIs wonted activity and per slstency. Occasionally he brushed away tear from his eyes with his rough and wrinkled hands. Tears are not rare with "Old Sport" but it was evident that those he was brushing back yester- day were sincere expressions of sorrow. "What's the matter, ''Old Sport ?'' more than one of his customers asked.
 "Old Sport" placed his stock of gum on the sidewalk. He drew little bundle of paper from one of his pockets, and carefully unfolding it, drew from its folds bit of yellow paper-a clipping from an eastern police journal It told of the sudden death in Bridgeport, of Alexander Campana, Gj years old. He was ''Old Sports brother. Of his death the veteran pedestrian knew nothing until he was handed the clipping yes day.
 No grave was ever dampened by warmer or more loving tears than those shed over the bit of yellow paper that conveyed the message of sorrow to poor "Old Sport. Chicago Tribune.

 Selling Liquor On Sunday.

U
 Selling Liquor On Sunday.
 Mrs John Deferari who lives on Phoenix avenue, was charged with breach of the peace. The testimony as it was brought out by Attorney Holo- han, who appeared for the accused, was to the effect that it was a neighbors quarrel, and Judge Bradstreet sus- pended sentence.
 Attorney Lowe secured signal vic tory this morning in his case against Attorney Colley. The case was that of Edward Wagner for selling on Sunday, which was continued from yesterday. Patrick and James Shanahan and James Wagner were present and denied the whole story that Byron, Colley witness, had told yesterday. Wagner said he has not tended bar for anyone since early in May, and therefore could not have been in the saloon on June 5. The two Shanahan's did not know Byron and never drank with him. Byron himself testified that he never said yesterday he drank with Patrick Shanahan. He said he drank with a man named Shanahan. His testimony as taken down verbatim by a DEMO GRAF reporter and as heard by many witnesses in the court room, was that he drank with Patrick Shanahan and James Wagner. Judge Bradstreet in rendering his decision said that Byron's stories were so improbable that he would find the accused not guilty.

The Ogdensburg, N.

The company is refined in tone and char acter, their wardrobe elaborate and as musicians they have few equals. They were all worthy of especial note. At the opera house Friday evening.

Despite the thrilling saw mill scene and the realistic railroad effect, Miss Griswold holds her own and is one of the hits of the per formance.

New Britain Excursion Party Badly
 Frightened.
 The steamer Bay Queen, which took about 900 young people from New Bri- tain on Coney Island excursion yester- day morning, did not return until 2:3O this morning and some alarm was occa- stoned. The boat did not reach Coney Island at all. The Bay Queen is an old tub and slow, and the start was very late. New York was not reached till 4:55 p. m. and then it was seen that the Coney Island trip would have to be given up. Some of the passengers came back by train, the Bay Queen being so heavily loaded, and the boat herself started back at s p. m. The Bay Queens previous office has been towing barges at New York and she will probably not figure as an excursion steamer very soon again.

A JUGGLER'S TRICK,
He Pretends to Kill a Man and Deceiye
 All His BehoIders,

He Pretends to Kill a Man and Deceives All His Beholders. The wonderful feats of east Indian jugglers have formed the theme of
 many letter from travellers in the Orient, but none are more surprising than that for which an old sen doc vouches. While he was an officer on board the P. and o. steamers, two na- tives came aboard at Madras, he says. They were juggler and his assistant. After they had performed a number of minor feats and gathered quite a crowd around them, they called for a sack and piece of sail cloth.
 These having been provided, the chief Juggler, made a small, tent-like struc- ture with canvas and some stools. He then placed his assistant in the sack and allowed a sailor to tie the knot which bound him fast pris- oner This done the chief carried the sack into an open space, warning the people to stand back some distance, and then carried on an animated conversa- ton with his assistant, whose replies could be distinctly heard coming from the sack. Suddenly the chief rushed forward, picked up the sack and dump ed 1t overheard, where, to the horror of the passengers and crew, it sank out of sight.
 Immediately the captain rushed for ward and seized the man, under the full belief that he had murdered his companion, but the juggler only smiled, and, pointing to the canvas, asked that it be raised This was done, and the supposed drowned man was discovered squatting on the deck. So realistic had been the throwing overheard, however, that it was some time before the sur prised passengers could realize that a murder had not been committed. .-Sap Francisco Call.

POLITICAL POINTERS.
The Fourth Ward Clubs Have Reached
 No Agreement Yet.

No Agreement Yet. A joint committee composed of mem- bers from the Pleasant street, Washing ton street, River street, and Young Mems Democratic clubs met last even ing at the request of the town con- mittee at democratic headquarters. The object of the meeting was to effect if possible a uniting Of these organi- cations so that in local matters as well as in state and national politics all might work together in harmony. In all parts of the ticket an agreement could be effected, except in the naming of the alderman. The Pleasant street clubs delegates would not be satisfied without Eugene Sullivan for alderman, while the delegates from the other clubs wanted John Altman. Nothing was effected towards the. desired end of the meeting, and as things now stand it looks as if there would be two tickets at the primaries.
 A number of Third ward democrats met last evening and prepared a ticket field Friday evening. The complete ticket has not reached this office at pres ent. There is little doubt however that there will be two tickets in this ward as in the fourth ward.
 The North End Democratic club will meet tonight at the rooms on Cherry street. All who want to see fair play are invited.
 It is said that man in the interest of the republicans, is making a house to house canvass inquiring the names of voters and where they are employed and in some instances asking who is the foreman that the men work for.
