Great Diamond

1t was not the perfection of island weather
Saturday, but the Great DiamondeI's had
a delightful afternoon as well as their
friends. First there was boat race, and
the prizes were won by Carl Doten and
Robert Chapman. In the three legged race
Carl Doten and Henry Kinds secured the
prizes. Then followed the potato race, in
which Carl Doten was again the prize win
ner, and in the sack race Robert Chapman
secured the prize. In the meantime tables
had been arranged in the grove and a clam
bake was cooking on the shore. On the
arrival of the AIS boat from the city the
bake was opened and more delicious one
was never served. Everyt hing was cooked
to a turn. There was an abundance and
plenty of walters served it promptly.
Delicious coffee, fruit, etc.. added to the
feast. There We're about one hundred and
seventy-fve present, many being from the
city. 1nsthe evening the last dance of the
season was held. The matrons were Mrs.
Lamb of Brooklyn and Mrs. H. ". Brainard.
The ladies were in evening dress and looked
most charming. 1t was delightful close to
the series of dances held this season,

1t was at first though that ChoraIist, who
was taken lame in the third heat of the 2.35
class, had broken q tendon. but it is now
very evident that it is only very severe
sprain. AS he is very speedy and finely
bred horse, it is to- be regretted that an
accident befel him, when he was in the
pink of condition, as he would have taken
the lead among the speedy ones.

Lightning,

Ships at sea formerly were in great dan
ger during thunderstorms, and much dam
age to property and great loss of life are
recorded in Shipping ACCOUNTS. Within
half century tqf time there were in the
British navy alone nearly 800 instances of
vessels being struck by lightning, involv-
ing loss of almost $1,000, 900 worth of
property and hundreds of lives. Modern
science has, however, entirely removed the
probabilities of disaster by arranging con-
duetors from the highest points on the
masts down through suitable passages
into the sea, where the water dissipates it.
So certain are the results when these con-
ductors are properly arranged that the Of
f1cers go about their duties with very lit
tie apprehension even in severe electrical
storms In a somewhat similar manner
the Washington monument is protected
from lightning, to which, by reason of it's
great height and exposed situation, it is
peculiarly liable. A metal cap covers the
apex of the obelisk, and from this there
are conducting rods to point below wa
ter level There are occasional storms
when the electrical display around the top
of the monument is most interesting, but
aside from very slight crack in one Of
the capstones no harm has been DONE

BETTER GAME SATURDAY.
But We Won 1t Just the Same.

Him But Too Late-Slater Batted Ire

About 1000 people saw Fall Rivers star
pitcher Line oln hurl his first ball at the
plate Saturday. Garry raped it for a fine
single. Slater tried to bunt, which he
ought never to do, for he can't successfully,
and both Garry and he were caught. Port
land was the first to score in the second
inning on Burns single, Flack's sacrifice
and Edgar's single.
In the fifth, there was sport. Lincoln was
pulverized temporarily. Edgar, Charlie
Smith and Dolan singled and Slater cleared
the bases with a fife two Dagger, as he had
done SO many times this year. Hit EN- out
Slate and stop bunting At the end of
the inning the score was Portland 4, Fall
River 0. Up to the seventh there had been
but one hit off Dolan. Then the Fall Rivers
had sport. Ladd, Rupert, Klobedanz, Nc
DeImott and Brady singled and Lincoln
doubled. They tied the score with four
earned runs.
In the ninth We won the game. The Fall
Rivers made bad eros. Slater's fourth hit
brought in Dolan, the sixth and last run of
the game. The score:

The Power o. a yoice.

Stories abound to is;rate the power
possessed by great speakers and actors to
stir the emotions by the tones of the voice.
1t is said of the elder Booth that he brought
tears to the eyes of company upon one
occasion by the way in which he uttered
the opening words, Our Father" of the
Lord S Prayer.
Whitefeld, it is said, could SO utter the
word Mesopotamia as to startle his hearers
into tears. A story is told of the great
Irish orator, O'Connell. An attack had
been made upon him in the house of COM
mons. When O'Connell rose to reply, his
lofty brow was black with thunder and
his arm uplifted as if to strike. Then,
checking himself, he said:
But the gentleman says he loves Ire
land
Lowering his tone to the ripping muir,
muir Of summer brook, he continued,
Il have no words of bitterness or reproach
for any man who loves Ireland"
The pathos in the fragmentary utterance
of the last word brought tears to the eyes
of many veterans of the house.-London

HAY FEVER.
The Malay Almost Exclusively Confined
to the EIuc.ted Glasses.

AauuCdCeO Sie-'S'
1t Is curious circumstance that hay
fever should DO almost exclusively confined
TO tne educated classes, but SO IL IS AS
an American writer humorously remarks:
ne complaint is not met with in the
pleps, the commune vulgus hoi polloi, but
is patrlclan and aristocratlc, and occurs
mainly among those high in rank and So
cial position and eminent for mental and
literary attainments. William ~ of Eng
land, an English duke, Southey, the poet,
several learned divines, lawyers, medical
men and their wives, ex-mayors, bank
ers and ladies of fashion are among the
select few on whom it bestowed it's favor"
Farmers, who are of necessity constant
ly exposed to the influence of pollen, rare
ly suffer from it. 1t is difficult to &C
count for this immunity. BY some it has
been supposed that it is owing to the alb
sence OF the predisposition which mental
culture induces, while others think that
they are rendered insusceptible to the &C.
ton OF grasses by their constant exposure
to It's influence. However that may be,
there IS no doubt that an attack of hay
asthma is great trial of faith and pa
thence, religion and philosophy, and enough
at times, as some one once said, TO make
man curse his mother and turn Turk"
if that be the ultima thule of human tur-
pitude.
The great Daniel Webster secluded
himself every autumn at Marshfield to get
through his season of trial, with what pa
thence he could muster and the distin-
guished Henry Ward Beecher annually
vacated his pulpit for season from the
same cause, and certainly if ever preach
er had good excuse for doing so it was
he. Preaching even such as his would
fail in its effects Ii interrupted at inter-
walls by succession of sonorous sneezes,
paroxysms of cough, and asthmatic utter
ance, and persistent aspersion of eyes
and nostrils 1t would seem probable
that the condition of the nervous system
engendered by mental Trainings especial
ly favorable to the development of hay
asthma
The man who could bear with equa-
nimity the annoyances of hay fever would
rival the fortitudc of Guatemozin himself,
who, when stretched upon live Goals by
his brutal conquerors, rebuked the COM
plainingsof his fellow sufferer by gently
reminding him that The, too, was not up
on bed of roses" The first attack often
begins in childhood and rarely occurs late
in life. The complaint appears to be more
frequent in men than in women, and there
is reason to believe that the susceptibility
to this troublesome affection runs in fam
lilies. 1t is probably more common in this
than any other country. Family Physi-
