ras the Motto Of the French Horse Racing
Association, Yesterday.

WArERvILLE, Oct. l1.-(SpeciaD The
third meeting of the French Horse Racing
Association was held at the Fairfield driv-
ing park, this afternoon, and proved sue
cess, although it had been twice postponed.
A good crowd was in attendance and all
enjoyed the sport to the greatest degree.
The object of this association has been
fulfilled to a certain degree, at least, that
in getting the drivers accustomed TO track
driving and the handling of horses on the
track. A great improvement in
this direction was plainly to he
seen over the race of last
fall The races today were all started
promptly and trotted honestly, each horse
being driven to win if possible. In the
stand were G. A. Alden, starter j. b
Gilman, Fred Pollard and Fred Pooler,
iliges, and Chas. b. Sherman, inner.
Three events were trotted. In the
matched race between Philios and Barber
Boy the former had an easy victory, and in
no race was he obliged to pace within 10
seconds of bis record.
There was fnn in the As class and it re-
quired FIVE heats to decide the winner.
From the start Happy Jack seemed to be
The favolite ith the crowd and this horse
finally carried off the honors.
The thr minute race was void of ex-
citement, as the horses were in no way
evenly matched. The summaries:

Then followed the most impressive part of the cere- mony, viz: the admonitory and part ing address and benedctoin of the confirmants by their teacher, Rev. F. Becker, and when he closed the beautiful ceremony by handing the confirmants their certificates and sending them to their parents and friends to receive their blessings and good wishes, many eyes were filled with tears. The services were then closed in the usual manner.
 The choir consisted of the follow ing ladies and gentlemen: Mesdames Maggie McCord Hill, organist; L.. Mehlinger. Clara Russell, Misses Mona Andrews and Fay Mehlingel. Messrs. Parker and Campbell Es- p,cial praise is due Mrs Hill.

Confirmation Services at the Temple.
 Yesterday was gala day among our Jewish friends. They celebrated the feast of Sheyioth--the feast of weeks. On this day t is the custom to receive and confirm i'll the Jewish faith those children who have at tained the thirteenth yearand shown enough proficiency in the truths of their religion to entitle them to con firmation.
 The services are always beautiful and impressive, and yesterdays was no exception to the rule, The Tenn pie was crowded and chairs had to be placed ill every available nook and corner to accommodate the expect ant congregation.
 Promptly at 9:45 the services were opened by an appropriate and beau tiful violin solo, Prayer and Air from the opera Freishutz which was very satisfactorily rendered by Mir Eisenkramer and followed by the opening song.
 The services proper were then read in the usual and impressive style of Rev. Dr. F. Becker and were grandly supported by the well trained choir.
 At the proper moment the con- l firmants were led into the Temple by the President and Vice President of the congregation, Messrs Charles Well and l.. F. Goldsmith. They were greeted by q NV leone song by the full choir They were: Miss ] Claudio Well, Masters Seldon Rosen- berg, Harry Hanf, ,Gabe Blnthenthal, August Thalheimer. Upon their faces one could read that they were fully impressed with the solemnitv of the oeeasiol All of the confirm ants acquitted themselves well in the examination whic Il followed and in the prayers and recitations assigned to each of them Claudia Well, who had the valedictory ad- ] dress, deseIves to he specially com melded for the self-possessea and beautiful manner in which she de l livered the same

a LOVE SONG.

Where have you been today, Annie Smith,
Where have you been today?
BY the shore where the river becomes firth
Or up on the hills away,
BY purple heather and saffron broom.
Like clouds at the sunset hour,
And ell the well kenn'd flowers that bloom
In each breezy hillside bower?
Were you there, Annie Smith, that your face
is so gay
And your eyes so laughing and blue?
Was it there that you spent the whole of the
day?
Or, tell me, darling, were you
In the leafy wood where the grass grows thick
With the fairies at their play?
Did you f1irt with Oberon, dance with Puck,
That your face, Annie Smith, is so gay?
Where have you been today, Annie Smith,
That you smile SO gayly on me?
By the shore where the river becomes firth,
Or were you upon the sea2
Did you sail in a pearly shell, Annie Smith,
With your hair flying free?
Do your laughing blue eyes tell, Annie Smith,
Such happy tale of the sea?
Or were you down in the caves, Annie Smith,
With the mermaids under the sea2
Did the mermen beneath the waves. Annie
Smith,
Try to catch and keep you from me?
Or did you fly through the air all the day?
Did you frolic with the wind2
Did you dine with the man in the moon, I pray,
That your face and your eyes are SO laughing
and gay?
Come, Annie, Annie, be quick and say
Where have you been the whole of the day
In your body or your mind?
From Plays by John Davidson.

Gas lamps as weather propnet..

II beg leave to explain to you and the
public generally method of weather fore
casting, which discovered about eight or
ten years ago, and have since elaborated
daily. 1t is done by closely observing and
understanding the various shapes and
shades of the gas flame as visible in a street
lamp about a hundred yards off. The fol-
lowing prognostics will speak for themsel-
yes:
with centre bright as silver. And. as there
is generally frost when snow comes it is
indicated by tail from the bottom of the
light, resembling wine bottle turned up
side down. The size of tall will show the
degree of frost.
'Prognostic for sunshine-The frost tall
is solid, but for sunshine it is made of rays
closely pressed together. There is very
particular point to be deserved here. The
moment the ray tall is seen, a similar
is not to be seen if there is to be no sun
shine next day.
s'Prognostic for rain-Rays out from the
sides and bottom of the light candle flame
shaded. The rain will be in proportion to
the rays.
.'Prognostic for haze or fog-Haze has the
white flame, and the fog has the same
shade toned down nearly as the candle
Hame.. Cloudy and dull is indicated by the
pressure of the atmosphere.
Prognostic for thunder-A very small
flame, but bright as silver, with the slight
est touch of mauve tone.
Prognostlc for wind-The reflection
around this light, and in proportion will be
the wind or storm.
The prognostic for heat-A hay fur
hundred yards distant from you."- (Will-
lam Elliott in Invention
