Rich Trent.

Society is on the tiptoe of excitement looking forward to the PaderewslSi plano recital at the Hyperion next Tuesday at 2;sO p, m, The Philadelphia Times says; Paderewski has at no time been heard to- a greater advantage than last evening at the Academy of Music, when he played with Walter Dam rosch's orchestra the F minor concert of Chopin, Liszt's concerto In 10 flat major, and his own Fantasle Polonaise. He and Damrosch had already played this unusual program i'm New York, and understood one another and the rela- tions of the piano and orchestra were safely maintained. PaderewsA senti- mentalizes the Chopin andante after his own manner but the allegro was very brightly played with delicate feeting and fiuency and exquisite skill, aud the Liszt concerto was quite masculine performance, without the largeness of style that some I4iszt players have giv- en 1t. but firm and clear and finely ef- fective, The Polish fantasie is a sort of echo of the others, with some Chopin, and good deal of, Liszt, and bits of Wagner and Saint Saens, with a run ming pianoforte obligato and much noise in the orchestra. The pianist has slightly reduced the redundancy of his hair and appears less oppressed by It's weight than before. He made his entrance to a fanfare from the or chestra, and after each composition the audience, which filled the house, in- sisted upon his coming back to the piano to give an example of what is unquestionably his distinctive genre, the lackadaisieal lyrics that die away upon the air. leaving the breathless au- ditors overwhelmed, not by what they hear so much as by what they can't hear.

The Stoddard Lectures.

The announcement of the return to this city of John l.. Stoddard to begin another season of his illustrated lec- lures which have now such a claim to permanency that they appea}nto the children of those who first enjoyed them, cannot be regarded otherwise than an important occurrence of the week to come. Following custom which has become time-honored with him, MT Stoddard has prepared him. self for the lectures of this season by further observation and study in Europe, whence he has but lately re- turned. One of his most enjoyed rest ing places was in and about Naples, and it is to his experience there that he invites attention in the opening lec- ture of the course, to be given on Thurs day evening next, at the Hyperion the ater. It is unnecessary to state that the lecture will be finely and fully H. lustrated.

The regular monthly meeting Of the
Capital City Cycling Club was held on
Tuesday evening last and was one Of the
most enthusiastic meetings the organ
ization has held for year. Thirty four
new names were added to tbs roll OF
membership. two OF them being ladies.
The subject OF evening runs was taken
up and the touring committee was in
structed to appoint regular weekly runs
the first taking place on Thursday
evening OF this week, the start being
made at 7:30. The time for the re-
ception Of new members at the reduced
fee for admission was extended until
Tuesday, June 18th. at which time the
fee will be permanently placed at the
regulation figure and no more oppor-
tunities will be given for at least year
for admissions at any reduced figure.

the national circuit meet in October and
later committees will be appointed to

The run has been widely advertised
among the wheelmen OF the city, and
they together with a number Of ladies,
have signified their desire and intention
OF accompanying the club, and were
greatly disappointed at the enforced
postponement OF the run on last Sun
day and the Sunday previous. These
are considered sufficient reasons for the
postponement, indefinitely, OF the Roca

woman in the city who can ride seven

With Mr.. Grubb it was entirely diff

chances for first place were fiattering,

SURVIVES A BROKEN NECK
Peculiar Case That Is Pulling
the Physicians at
Omaha.
Mrs. Stewart Has Lived for Six
Days With a Fractured
VertebrB.

OMAHA, NEBR., Oct. 2.-Mrs. Dudley T.
Stewart is lying at the point of death with
broken neck. On Thursday evening last,
during Mr.. Stewards absence from the
city, young man who enjoyed the ac-
quaintanee of the family called at the
house with his carriage and horses and in
vited Mrs. Stewart to go driving with him.
After some persuasion Mrs. Stewart con-
sented..
Hardly had the couple driven few
blocks when the team SHE'D, the carriage
collided with the curb and the occupants
were thrown to the pavement. A crowd
of neighbors Immediately gathered at the
spot and the wreck was gathered up. The
young lnan escaped without serious in
jury, but Mrs. Stewart was thrown upon
her head and rendered unconscious. She
was taken back to her residence and q
physician summoned.
An examination disclosed the fact that
Mrs. Stewards neck had been broken.
Her entire body is paralyzed from the
shoulders down. Mr.. Stewart was notified
at once and returned to the city Friday.
The physicians have expected Mrs. Stew
art TO die at any moment since the acci-
dent. That she has lived six DAYS is con-
sidered remarkable and unaccountable.

TRIAL OF THE ST. PAUL,
Slow Time Made in the New
Liners Race for
Record.
The Messrs. Cramp and the Naval
Officers Chagrlned Over the
Result.

MARBLEHEAD. MASS, Oct. 2.-The
new American liner st. Paul, the twin ship
to the st. Louis, now in regular ocean
traffic on the same line, was given her first
trial trip to-day. The course selected was
the regular Government course from Cape
PorpoIse to Cape Ann and return.
The st. Paul is the latest and most costly
addition to the merchant marine, and for
months past the result of her trial has been
theme of speculation among all naval
men. 1t was expected that she would equal,
if not surpass, the record made by the St.
Louis over the same course-22.03 knots per
hour. She does not receive any bonus for
reducing this record, but was to receive as
subsidized cruiser so much for carrying
the mail for every mile that she made over
the st. Louis time.
The weather was perfect for the trial,
and 1t was expected that the st. Paul would
make very high record, but for some un-
explainable cause she did very poorly and
could not go faster that 81 knots. She will
be given another trial Saturday.
The Messrs. Cramp and the naval Off
GERS who witnessed the trial were very
much chagrined, but laid the fault to her
machinery being new and her crew unac-
customed to neI movements.
