PROVIDENCE FRANKLIN SOCIETY.

At the regular meeting of the Franklin
Society Tuesday evening lecture was
given by Mr.. James M. SouthwicK, on
Rhode Island Birds" OF which the fol-
lowing is a brief synopsis: He said that
his lecture had been originally prepared
with reference TO the relation OF the
feathered tribe to agriculture. Within
the borders of our State go species had
peen captured out of the whole number
OF 40 TO be found in the whole country
104 have proved residence as they have
nested with us. He divided the go into 8
classes, (a) 100 beneficial because valuable
for food or as exterminents OF small
rodents, noxious insects lfrv9, etc. (b) 81
species, indifferently valuable, such as
petrol, gannet, gulls and terns (c) 2S
species that are Objectionable, and some
Others like the heron, bittern, some
sparrows and finches that do not seem TO
fit any class.
Interesting descriptions were given of
the Icon and various water fowls and the
wood duck, also their food and habits.
Then reference was made 10 thorough
ly misunderstood group-the hawks
and owls, who by their destruction
OF "vermin" were far greater
benefit to the agriculturist than
a damage. A careful examination of
the stomach Of what is known as the hen
hawk, 500 in all, showed only two per
cent OF fowl as food, twenty per cent. OF
birds, fifteen of insects and sixty-five per
cent of mice.
But the cooper's hawk and the sharp
Skinned hawk arc pair OF vandals and
robbers. These hawks are quite similar;
when adult they are bluish-brown in
plumsge, and all white below, barred with
handsome, buff brown. Both have long
tails and slim, piraticai build. They
feed almost entirely on small birds, with
large proportion Of game and poultry.
Many good words were said for the
owl who destroys many beetles, mice and
rats in his voIacious feeding.
Mr.. Southwick's lecture on April %,
will be devoted TO "Song Birds" etc.
The subject of birds is now attracting
much attention, particularly with women,
many OF whom were present last evening.
Next lecture, March II, by Mr.. Levi W.
Russell; subject, "Among the Pines"

" Peaceful Valley,n which Mr.. Sol
Smith Russell presented for the first time
in this city, is about as thin a piece OF
stage construction as anything that Mr..
Russell has ever produced. Although
playwright kidder has given the quaint
comedian some bright lines TO read, he
has furnished him with only the most
paltry situations, and a plot and story,
so flimsy, with motive so commonplace,
sentiment so threadbare. and effects so
strained, that even so independent a fur
nisher OF monologue as Mr.. Russell finds

of the character, raw but studious
country boy who, like the college men,
tries his hand at being waiter at a sum-
mer hotel in order to get means to prose-
cute his studies, distinctly suggests
pleasurable development at the hands OF

A Small Audience Listens to an Excellent

A small audience gathered at the Music
hall last night to hear the Torbett Con-
cert company, and were we'll entertained
by hearing some very excellent music.
The Luttemann sextette of male voices
sang we'll, being an evenly balanced
chorus of very good voices. OF the
pianist it must be said that her solos
were indifferently rendered, showing sma.l
knowledge of LISTS peculiarities. Her
ompaniments we're good.
Miss Ollie Torbett played with spirit,
developing dainty, delicate. touch and
excellent bowling. Her pianissimo is
slightly inclined to scrape in forte
passages. She has the common fault
of female violinists, lack of strength
to make an even loud tune without
scraping. But none the less she is we'll
worth hearing. The next concert will be
on Monday evening and larger attend
ance is looked for. Following is the

NEW YORK, Sept. 28.-Although the

come to an end until Monday. the des-
tination of the pennant OF 1895 was de-
cidsd by the result of this afternoons
contest between the New Yorks and Bal
timores. The Orioles won the game and
the pennant in the eighth inning by a
combination Of hits and errors. If nine
ball players even worKad hard to keep the
question OF the pennant in doubt today
1T was the New Yorks. They played at oil
stages. but still the Orioles were too fast
for them.
Jennings really won the game himself,
his phenomenal catch of Batton's fly in
the eighth inning, when two were OH
bases. in which he completed double
splay unassisted. was all that saved the
Giants from tieing the score, as the hit
went on straight line for right field.

EXAMINATION OF PAYNE
The Defense Will Introduce Testimony To-

The Defense Will Introduce Testimony To-
morrow
The examination of ]. r. Payne,
charged with assault with deadly weap-
on, was held before Justice Morrison yes
terday afternoon, and at the time of ad-
iournment the testimony for the prosecu-
ton only had been given. That of the
defense will be introduced tomorrow.
Payne is the man who stabbed tho
livery man, Duren, with knife on Re-
quena street last month and made his es-
cape. He was captured recently at
Truckee. and while en- route to this city
attempted to escape by jumping from the
car window. He was caught after short
run by the deputy sheriff.
The testimony yesterday went to show
Payne. During the alteration Payne
applied an ugly epithet to Dufen. who
picked up char. intending to strike
Payne. The latter grappled with him
anu took the chair away, and in the
melee stabbed Duren.
