changes in the constitution. The play
for the Hamilton trophy began tonight.

each represented by team of four. AS
soon as team loses four matches, it

A sorrowful Absentminded Man.

While-luckily for the world-all
clever people are not absentminded,
nevertheless an absentminded person is
almost invariably clever person, and
very often is a really intellectual man
Or woman whose absurd alterations are
therefore all the more laughable and
conspicuous. One of our prominent
men who is noted for his urbanity and
easy way of dealing with 1.-THE boys y
had a call a week or two ago from a
local politician whose influence WAS
more or less important in his ward. AS
he was leaving, Mr.. - accompanied
him into the hall. and picking up his
own brand new spring overcoat, with q
polite "Let me aid you," helped the man
into it despite the latter's rather feeble
protestations
"You will need it; the air is so keen,
Haid Mr.. -- blandly, as the man, ac-
cepting the situation, walked away,
doubtless thinking it delicate way Of
procuring vote. A few minutes after
wa1d Mr.. - discovered his mistake,
but his new eighty dollar top coat was
gone forever.--New York Tribune.

Fresh Cuoumbers Are Healthy.

"Cucumbers are greatly maligned
vegetable" said man who insists upon
having vegetables freshly picked every
day from his own garden during the
summer. 'They are considered by the
majority of persons to be unhealthy;
whereas if eaten within few hours
after they are gathered they are, ON the
contrary, very wholesome quite as
much so in my estimation as lettuce.
My family are all fond of them, and
partake of them freely throughout the
season; but l should not allow them to
eat them at all, unless l was sure of
their freshness.
1t is just that that makes all the diff
ference. My great-grandfather was hale
and hearty at ninety -one, and Isremem-
Der being told that his diet consisted
chiefly of cucumbers and tobacco. But
l won't recommend this menu as a rule
for old gentlemen; l only cite it to show
that my favorite vegetable has its sani-
tary value in some cases. New York

A Summer Girl.

She had been reading lovely adver-
tisement of a summer resort as the young
man sat by and listened.
"Didn't you ask me to marry you,
Dick?" she said, turning to him.
"Pve asked you that forty times" he
replied in rather Respondent tones.
"Do you really mean it?'
Certainly do" he asserted emphat-
ically.
"Then, Dick, we can only be friends;
at least, for the present. | wouldn't
think Of really and truly engaging my
self to man just at the opening of the

He looked very much hurt and il
touched her. ~s

REoENT REAL1zATIoNs

or the California Turfmen's Fondest
Hopes.
Capt. Millen Griffith OF San Francisco
is probably jubilating at his breakfast
table this morning over the performance
of his great pacing horse, Flying Jib.
purchased by him as a roadster in 1889
for something like 5000. Yesterday at
Detroit this horse won in three straight
heats, getting record of 2:15 for this
his second race He will pace in 2 10
or better before the close of the season.
*x*
Yo Tambien is probably the greatest
mare ever foaled in this state. The only
doubt we have in regards to this matter
includes mare bred by the same man
--Mollie McCarthy-and the flying filly
Sinaloa, bred at Santa Anita, in this
county. Sinaloa ran great mile and a
quarter in her 3-year-old form and died
in the following winter. As Yo Tambien
is undoubtedly the best 3-year-old in
America, there will be curiosity to see
her meet the great Tammany. She COW
cred this distance at rate inside of :39
to the mile, and, while that is a faster
fight than Tammany has yet accom-
plished, we believe he will beat her
whenever they meet. Yorkville Belle
was considered great 3-year r-old till she
met Tammany, and yet he squandered
her in the first five-sevenths of the Real
ization distance.
x*x
Is a man faster than a horse? That
is the question which will naturally
suggest itself on reading that bicycle
has travelled mile in 2:17 2 5 and five
miles in IL minutes 56 1-5 seconds. The
fastest five miles by trotter is by Nor
rissey at Detroit in 1871, and by the pa
GER, Lady Mac, in 13 100 at San Francisco.
The one mile record is not yet down to
that of Sunoi, 2 :0S14, but it is visibly
decreasing. Ten years ago it took a
great bicycle rider to get in a mile in
2 80, and now that is regarded as a
clever flight for an amateur.
NV
1t is said that the Santa Anita mill
ionaire has for the second time dis
solved business relations with the little
colored boy, Barnes, known as ''Pikey." I"
The cause of this is that Mr.. Baldwin, q
colt, Galindo. ridden by Barnes, was
beaten head in race at Chicago the
other day by horse called Springaway.
Mr.. Baldwin has since obtained positive
proof that Barnes owned Springaway
himself, and deems the way the race
was run very good cause for dismissal.
