The attendance at the Rigby races was
not equal to that of Thursday. But from
one to two thousand spectators saw and
enjoyed the races. i There were some
tedious delays in getting off caused in
measure by an unusual succession of ac-
cidents. First, suiky tire burst, then a
trotter cast shoe, and then there was a
collision. There was also some criticism
of the starter, some of the crowd think
ing that he did not discipline the drivers
enough. Col. Edwards said in re-
gard to this that he intended that every
horse should have as nearly fair show
as possible and that they must score un-
til this intention was realized as nearly
as possible. In the first heat of the 2. Is

But in spite of the delays in starting

horsemen that Rigby is phenomenal

standing the remonstrances of his com-
panion, the gentleman. who was a ait

game.
Now, would the gent like to wager
a crown he could find the pen?' re-
marked the expert.
Eyes. was the reply.
The money was on both sides depos-
tied, and the pedestrian, lifting up the
thimble. pointed out the required pea
and took the stakes.
A second bet, double or quits"
ended. 10 the surprise OF the expert, in
the same result.
Then a third wager. "a pound or
nothing. steadied the nerves Of the
loser. and the trick was accomplished
with great caution. The gentleman
lifted up thimbie and showed the pea.

Autumn Millinery.

lmpOrtations Of millinery for autumn
and winter are very attractive. They
are made up of round hats of medium
size in proportion of two-thirds of the
stock TO One-third of bonnets that are
extremely small. The shapes OF hats
are most varied. For the demi-season
are sailor hats of new shape in felt
and in black beaver of satin-anti que
10 be worn yachting and in the country.
These have the brim turned up in the
back and the crown slanting 10 the
front. The Napoleon hat introduced
in the spring with the brim turned I'D
straight in front is modified in smaller
imported shapes, and this turned-back
front is part OF various hats. novel
walking hat with rather high crown
has the left side turned UP even higher
than the crown and very close against
it An odd shape has the brim wider
on each side than in front and back.
Cooked hats remain in favor. There

Couldn't Fool S.im,

a farmer went into a store in Albany
and asked the proprietor if he wanted
to buy some fresh butter. The mer-
chant told him that he would ask his
wife if she needed any, SO he stepped
to the telephone, called up his wife,
and talked to her few seconds through
the phone, then turning to the coun-
tryman, who was standing with his
hands in his pockets, his eyes stretched
and his face ,very red, told him that
his wife said She did not need any but
ter. The indignant countryman blurt-
ed out:
Look here, mister, II You didn't
want any butter why didn't You say 50.

think that you've got your wife shut up
in that little box"

Another striking feature of this rude

picture gallery is the number of times
that the mysterious Biblical number
seven occurs. On the verge of the
sAnon, as approached from the south,
Sven powders stand side by side. On
the east end of each bowlder are the
PICTURES of seven animals, while on ths
south side are hieroglyphics arranged
b rows, of which there are seven on
each stone. Down in the canon, near
the river, is bowlder with a fat top,
On which are the pictures of seven
snakes. A rude attempt was made to
supply the rattles, of which each snake
IS supplied with seven. A few miles
from the Colorado river, where the
canon is not more than eight hundred
Or one thousand feet from wall to wall
and where the walls are perpendicular
and smooth, on the right wall are the
pictures of seven warriors with bows
drawn to the last notch, while across
the river on the opposite side are the
pictures of seven antelope, apparently
in full run to escape the hunters.
These pictures are we'll executed and
are in the most inaccessible places.
Evidently the artist was lowered from
a ledge, hundreds of feet above the
picture, and held suspended while he
performed his tedious task.-St Louis

THE EEL KILLED POOR "NIG."
Now Tommy Hopkins Mourns His Cat,
Who Died Glutton.

Old Tommy Hopkins, the eel catcher
of Pleasure Bay, is mourning his pet
eat and life companion Mig" who has
died from the effects of an encounter
with a big eel last sunday
The tide was running favorablv for
cells Saturday night. and Hopkins
and his partner, Bill Archer. planted a
wire pot in the surf near their house
After putting piece of liver in il to
attract the game they went to bed, in
tending to visit the snare the next
morning, when the receding tide would
leave it high and dry upon the sand
Mig who had reached the age OF
eighteen. was noted for being as fond
of fish and cells as a cat brought up or
the seashore could be. He had often
gone out in the boat with his master.
and. was considered part of the fam
lily.
The cat happened along the beach
Sunday morning before Hopkins was
up and saw the cells squirming in the
pot. He forthwith slid through the
prongcd trap-door and began to break
fast off the slimv denizens. All went
well until he tried to bite a morsel out
OF the back of big conger. Then the
poor cat wished he hadn't come into
the pot, since being in he could not get
out
Tho old eel. with the quickness of a
flash. threw his tail over "Nig's" back
and instantly wrapped himself around
his body. They rolled aud tumbIeG.
Mig scratched and the old eel
squeezed. Then the cat tried 10 bite
its antagonist through the head. but
couldn't because the eel kept MS head
close 70 ''Nig's' neck.
1t would have been battle to the
death then and there had not Hopkins
heard the cats cries and hurried down
to the beach in his stocking feet As
il was, Mig was almost lifeleSs when
extricated from the pot, and died the
next day.
Hopkins killed the eel and threw il
into the surf. He alleges that i was

Til all his pain is fed,
