Directum Defeats Saladin In the Match

Sahsbury's gallant Directum defeated J.

day for side bet of $500 and a purse of
1900, the winner taking the entire purse
The sun shone brightly, with little or no
wind blowing. The race was called for 2
o'clock, and when that hour arrived it
was found that the warmth of the sun
had brought out the frost from the top of
the track making the going fully three
no one looked for record breaking, al
though the racing was as good as could
be seen.
In the first heat Saladin got the pole.
They made pretty race all around. Ten
yards from the wire the California horse
was head in front, but in the last three
strides .Saladin got up and passed under
the wire first by a short head. The game
horse's victory was received with ap-
plause, which was redoubled when it
was found that SaIadin had stepped the
last quarter in thirty seconds. Time,
2:l0l.
In the second heat Saladin made the
pace, being a length ahead just after
rounding the lower bend. Directum soon
along the back-stretch like a team.
Twenty yards before the half post Sala-
din broke, and Directum led by three
lengths. When he was down at the
three-quarters Directum had clear lead
OF four lengths. Saladin then again began
his wonderful rushing in the stretch and
got within length of the leader, when ne
broke, and Directum won the second
heat by two lengths and halt. Time,
2:104.
They got away at the first trial for the
third heat, but Directum at once went out
to make the pace. He led by half
length at the lower end. and by length
and a half at the quarter. Going to the
half Saladin held his own, but was un-
steady. The three-quarter-p was
reached by Directum three lengths ahead,
and Saladin was sent out as they reached
the stretch. His unsteadinesS was fatal,
however, destroying whatever chance he
had, allowing Directum to win by two
lengths. Time, 2:ll4.
Saladin attempted to overhaul the
Western Cyclonein the last heat, but Di-
rectum was moving as evenly as ma
chine, and won by three half lengths.
The winner did not make a skip during
the entire race.r Time, PIP
Flying Jib was sent to beat his record
of 2:04, and although accompanied by a
running mate was unable to do better
than 2:09t, which beats the track record
by two seconds.

MADAM NIODJESKA.
"When a Woman Will, She Will,
You May Depend Ont"

"WEen q Woman Will, she VIII,
You May Depend Ont"
Helcia Benda was born in CracoW,
Austrian Poland. The aspirations of
her childhood were for the stage, but
her early efforts met with such discOur-
agement that she abandoned all hope OF
ever attaining recognition. While very
young she was married in the willy
nilly fashion of that time and people to
man named OdrZjewska. the name
which we have shortened to MOdleSka,
SAYS John w. O'keefe in Donahoe'S
Magazine. He recognized her talent,and
organized company or StrOllIng players,
putting her at its head. TWO OF her
brothers and one sister were members.
The parts that Helcia or Helena was
called on to play were great in number
and difficulty, but she was happy. be-
cause at last she was following the life
of her choice. The company made no
profit, for the unhappy Poles, fighting
for their country, were in no hum0r for
plays. She had an offer to play German
tragedy in Austria, but she could not
bear to leave her country i'll its Crisis.
SO strong was her patriotism at the
time that she was called the Polish
Joan of Arc.
Returning to Cracow she secured an
engagement at the theater there, and at
once her genius began to make itself
known. In a few months her fame had
spread all over Poland. Alexander Du-
mas heard of her and asked her to come
to Paris to play in his "Camille," but
the notoriously corrupt stage life OF the
Paris of that period appalled, her and she
refused to go.
In 1866, while she was playing in
PoSen, her husband being dead, she
met, loved and married Charles BoZenta
Chi apowski. On the day OF her mar
riage she began an engagement at the
Imperial theater in Warsaw. Her tri-
umph was the greatest ever known,
aud thenceforth she was accepted as
the most foremost representative OF
Polish dramatic art.
1t was purely by chance that America
ever saw her. Her doctor had advised
a sea voyage for her health. and 1t was
decided that the family should visit the
centennial. They did SO. and IN 1877
went to California. where BoZenta
wished to found Polish Catholic com
munity. The effort failed, despite Nine.
ModjeSka'S hard work, she cooking,
Scrubbing, milking cows, and making
butter; and, BoZenta's money being
gone. they said: What are we to do?"
But one resource remained-Helena's
acting. But she could not speak En-
glish! Oh, well! she must learn. And
she did. Six months from the day of
her resolution she Llayed -"Adrienne
LecOuvreur" i'll San Francisco-and
triumphed. An energetic impresario

A New Use to Make of Faded
Flowers and sweet as Well.

Flowers ana sweet as w ell.
Almost every woman, be she maid,
wife or widow, has flowers sent and
given to her during the winter. A
pretty and easy way to preserve both
the blossoms and the remembrances
connected with them is to make them
into pillow or char rest. After the
flowers are faded strip Off the petals,
sprinkle them loosely upon newSpa
per or towel and dry them in front of
the fire, over the steam register or in
the sunny window of warm room.
When you have thus saved enough
! flower feathers to begin pillow, make
square or rectangular case, china silk
| on one side, white, pink. blue or apple
green, and fine strong silk bOlting cloth
on the other, the edges finished with
lace, ribbon or any pretty device. Fill
the case with the dried flower petals,
whose varied tints will show beautifully
through the boiling cloth against the
background of color.
Now comes the delicate and endear-
ing part OF the work.
Write upon the bolting-c cloth, with a
camel's hair brush and sepia or water
color, the name or initials of the differ
| ent giVerS of the fioWerS-or the date OF
any little word or hint connected with
the incident. This will dry quickly and
will make pretty network of spider

the dried flowers are not as fragrant as
! you wish add to the collection package
of the pot-pourri bought in drug stores
"a bunch of sweet lavender or even
some tiny sachet bags of soft ribbon to

tree in the autumn, and will "l asst"
