Tho Speed of a Cricket Ball

The speed at which cricket ball is de-
livered by q fast bowler may be roughly es-
timated at mile minute When Mr.. G.
T. B. Turner, the Australian bowler, Wis
tied Woolwich arsenal, he was requested
by an official to bowl through the electric
screens in use for measuring the velocity OF
projectiles. 1t was found that, at point
representing half way between the wickets,
the velocity of Turner's ball was 81 feet per
second, or SO miles an hour. At this rate
the sail would traverse the pitch in 2-27ths
of second. Several bowlers, however, as,
for instance, Mold, the Lancashire profess
SIGNAL, and fortnight. the Essex marvel,
bowl faster than Turner, and this would
bring the pace to the mile per minute. 1t
may be well understood that a batsman
has to keep all his wits about him to guard
bis wickets and his body from such at

Wather OhrwaIder.

At the central entrance OF the Refuge
home we were received by an Austrian
priest and conducted into spacious apart
ment with whiteYashed walls and marble
fpor. Scarcely had we seated ourselves
before a tall, thin man, with sunken cheeks,
long black hair and Struggling beard, en-
tered ths rocu, and greeted us kindly.
Il was hard to realize at first that this
was really Father Ohrwalder; that there
before us in actual flesh and blood was the
patient, noble, heroic martyr who had en-
dured such tsrribsa suGxriags for the last
1Oyears; who had been Intimately acqualnt-
ed with the mahdi and the khalifa; who
had enjoyed the personal friendship of Cen
eral Gordon, Eani1 Pasha, Slatin Bey and
nacgt of those whose names are as house
hold words in connection with the Soudan;
who had actually been at FL Obeid at the
time of the humiliation of Hicks Pasha's
army: who was familiar with every nook
and corner of Omdurman and Khartoom
and who had SO lately emerged from what
had been in literal truth 1.-THE valley Of the
shadow of dasIth."
Plain, simple, straightforward and unaf
fected, without the slightest trace of self
consciousness on the one hand or of mock
modesty on the other, ready to answer all
inquiries fully, freely and without exag-
geration OF reserve, Father Ohrwaleler
might have been the most commonplace of
individuals for all the pretension which he
made to the contrary.
And yet as the conversation deepened in
interest and intimacy one became gradu-
ally more sensible, not only from his words,
but from the expression of his countenance
and from his general deneanor, that he in
whose presence we were was no ordinary
man. -Blackwood's Magazine.

An Exhibition Race.

An exhibition race was made up for
the gray mare Maud Berry and the
chestnut stallion Goldbeater, by Alcanta-
ra. Both horses are PAGERS. Maud Ber-
nv had the pole and took the lead, and
a pretty race resulted, the gray leading
handsomely. On the second half Gold
beater was sent along and by some skip
ping took the lead on the home stretch
and went under the wire first on the
lump, carrying the gray mare off her
feet as he ran by. The heat was award

1t proved more of a race in this field
if it did not afford SO much fun as that
made by the second class. Eight horses
appeared and drew positions, viz: W..
Soule's Daisy S., A, A. Chase's Tom B.,
F. NJ. Libby's Mollie, Alonzo Jellerson's
Gen. Knox, Jr., Frank Murrays Black
jim, Simon Aroesky's Tom A., }. Clay's
Harry L., and A. A. Traftons Minta t.
For the first heat, Daisy S., with the
pole, went ahead, easy and level. Dan
b. followed closely, and Minta L. was
good third. Daisy S. won the heat with
out hurrying, jogging home in 2.55, and
could have easily made it better than
$50. Minta Il. and Tom B. had it red
hot for second place, and the others were
well strung out. The finish was Daisy
S. first, Tom B. second, Minta I. third,
Geo. Knox, Jr., fourth, Harry L., fifth,
Black Jim sixth, Tom A., seventh, Mol

The girth of the last horse broke on
the second half, and the shafts going into

cart backwards. Wescott, however,
pluckily held on to the mare, and he es-
capped injury and no damage resulted.
For the second heat Daisy S. had it all
her own way in front, but Minta T. and
Tom B. again had a rafting fight for
second place, and Tom won it, but it was
nearly nose and nose between them. The
| balance of the field were strung out as be
fore and had some good scrub racing all
to themselves. The places won were
Daisy S. first, Tom B. second, Minta T..

This ended the race, and also the sport
of the afternoon. First money to Daisy

SPORT AT aoRHAM.
Rafting Good Races in Road Carts and
Plenty of Fun.

There are many good horses in Cor
ham, Westbrook and vicinity, compare
lively unknown to track fame, though
representing fine breeding. The owners
of nearly twenty of these horses recent
( ly made a pool stake. secured the Nara
| gansett Park at Gorham, and yesterday
I afternoon the races came off in the pres
ence of goodly crowd of spectators.
The horses were divided into two
classes, without regard to any previous
performance, and they could trot OF pace.
The bike and sulky were banished, and
the horses hitched to road carts, best
two in three heats, catch weight and no
distance.
THE. horses were rungup at /. 45 o'clock
and the judges in the stand were Messrs.
G. E. Batchelder, starter, c. E. Davis
and Charles FL. Leighton.
| The first field of horses called was the
second class. Seven horses were entered
i'll this class. viz: William Raymond's
Buck; Nelson Libby, Westbrook; w.
Kennedy, Frank K; W. S. Spiller. Dan
dy; Fred Aver, Ben Hur; Alonzo Libby,
Pat; F. W. Lamb, Death; Frank Ray
monds Mollie.
For positions, Death drew the pole,
with Dandy next. This is not the
Bylrnham & Morrill, fast Norway Knox
colt, but another Dandy.
At the third attempt they got the
word for the first heat, and Death with
the inside went to the front, the balance
of the field gradually stringing out into
a very long procession. Buck, an old
timer and well bred horse, just settled
to his work and took the heat with ease
| in 3.O7. The finish was Buck first,
Death second, Mollie third, Frank <.
fourth, Westbrook fifth, Dandy sixth,
Pat seventh, Ben Hur eighth.
There was lots of sport in the second
heat. Buck had the lead, with Death
I second. On the second half, the grey
mare Mollie passed Death, and went up
to second place. The balance of the
| field were strung out and having lots of
| fun. Little Pat at times showing good
| speed. He is a finely bred horse by
L'Empereur, and is better known as
Maine Patriot. Mollie continued to
push on, and passed Buck on the home
stretch, the latter either quitting badly
OF being pulled up. The places were:
Mollie first, Buck second, Westbrook
third, Death fourth, Ben Hur fifth, Frank
K. sixth, Pat seventh, Dandy eighth.
Time. $40 1-2.
In the third heat Mollie led to the
homestretch where both Buck and Death
poked for the first place and the three
got nearly neck and neck. On the turn
Mollie broke and Buck took a good lead,
winning the heat by several lengths.
Mollie and Death had a good wrestle for
second position, and it was very close,
Death finishing a trifie ahead, but it was
given to the gray mare. The finish was
