Harry Wright,s Monument.

"Thcre has been criticism of the Ma

Young recently, "about tho games for the
Harry Wright monument fund not being
championship contests, and therefore I'M
likely to net as much money as there
should be for this purpose. AS matter
of fact, the Philadelphia game for this OBJ
ject the 18th of next month will show re-
ceipts sufficient to build the proposed
monument without counting ON other
cities in the League circuit. We made q
calculation during our recent meeting at
Now York, and it was figured out that six
championship games would bring in
enough money to build half q dozen mon
umonts in honor of genial, clever Harry
Wright. Nobody thinks more Of our for
mer associate and comrade than tho mag
mates of tho National league, and we do
not propose to do anything by halves in
honoring his memory"

said Mr.. Kearney Of the Saratoga Racing
association recently, Twas the readiness
with which some of tho bettors grasped
the full meaning of the situation. THEW
began the season by holding one finger up
in modest way when they wanted to bet.
But they soon began to hold up ten fingers
at time, and their only grievance was
that they didn't have four hands. 1t was
all right when they won, but after losing
race the bookmakers never saw ANYTHING
hut their feet rapidly disappearing over
the fence. This game of the stiff finger
and tho flying foot is tho worst drawback

Ee Has Made Grand Opera Profitable In

khc raCo VI OoeeAohcss
Walter Damrosoh is just bringing TO
close the German opcratio season for 1886.
Instead OF opening in New York and going
to tho country afterward with the prestige
of New York engagement and success,
he took tho hazard of making tour first
and returning TO New York. If tho result
of tho experiment was not all that could
be wished it was moro than was to be OK
pected, and it has demonstrated tho fact
that tho young manager has established II
reputation all over tho United States which
guarantees him hereafter respectful hear
ing wherever he may go and with what
ever musical attraction. The season, fol-
lowing the successful experiments of last
year, has demonstrated, too, tho possibility
of making grand opera sustain itself in
this country-something which many
managers before Mr.. Damrosch have pro-
nounced impossible.
In Europe operatio organizations are
subsidized by governments. The tradi-
tional prodigality of Americans would off,
