RECORDS BROKEN.
Sensational Features at the L. A. w
Meet Races At LOuisville...A
Serious Accident.

Louisville. Aug. 14.-The races Of the
l.. A. w. meet today in the finishes and
the time made bordered on the sensa-
| tional One of the most important
worlds records. the one mile competi-
tion was broken. The one mile national
championship was decided SO far as the
present progress Of the circuit is con-
| cerned 1t was won by Tom Cooper.
Arthur Gardiner did the record-break-
ing in the mile open, paced by John >.
Johnson and j. w. Parsons, the Aus
tralian champion, with thirteen starters
in the race. Gardiner rode the mile in
2.0l, beating the record Of 2.Ol 4-5. es-
| tablished by Bald just week ago at
Buffalo. He won by a phenomenal
sprint in the stretch, which he entered
ten lengths behind Sanger, who led the
| field. Chairman Gideon stated after
| ward that it was the most rapid burst
of speed that he had ever seen or heard
of. Cooper was not entered in this race.
In the mile national championship
Cooper. who won, had the closest call
OF the year. He beat owen Kimble
across the tape only half the diameter
of his front wheel. Bald was third, a.
length behind Kimble, the others being
punched behind.
The first serious accident of the meet
occurred in the five mile state champ
oinship, G. Mitchell's chain broke and
he fell. Karl Thome. the Kentucky one
mile champion fell over him. and three
other riders landed on Mitchell before
he could rise. The latters collar bone

TORONTO GETS WARD.

with the Canadians--.HutcliinsOn
May Go to Paterson.

Frank Ward, the second baseman re-
leased by Scranton Thursday night. was
signed for Toronto by Manager Buck
enberger last night. He will play
against Scranton today.
Wards engagement is mainly due to
Truby's injured ankle. which was badly
wrenched again yesterday. and it Grip
pied him so that he could not have
played for some time. Piggy's friends
will probably turn out in full force to
see what he can do against his old
loves.
Hutchinson, who also was released
Thursday night, is negotiating with
Paterson. of the Atlantic league. A
question of salary Is all that prevents
his being signed.

HARDNESS OF ELECTRICITY.
The Ingenious Ways in Which It Is
Being Used.

Electricity, light, heat and chem
ical action are all in essence motion;
electricity is the most desirable of
them all, because it can most readily
and fully become the source or issue
of any other. The preeminent SEN
sitiveness of electrical apparatus
makes it a surprising means Of meas
uring minute portions of space or
time, of light, heat, chemical activ-
ity, or mechanical motion. Hence a
brood of telltales of widely contrast
ed purpose. Selenium, metalloid
Of the same lineage as sulphur, and
betraying its descent by striking
family resemblance, has the curious
property of transmitting electricity
more freely in light than in dark
ness; a stick of selenium, therefore,
is the pivot of device to give warn
ing when extinction befalls a lamp
charged with important duty. In
thermometers circuit broken or
completed acts as a fire signal, or,
on shipboard, heralds the approach
of an iceberg. Electric fingers
sound a gong when the water re-
cedes below the safety level in a
steam boiler, or report an attempted
breach of bolt or bar by the burglars
jimmy. Each of these warnings can
be registered at a distance, so that
in case of neglect by an attendant
there can be no disputing the fact.
Now, if an electric alarm can sum-
mon a servant to duty, why may not
the inventor 60 further, and so add
to his device that it shall Of its own
motion do what needs to be done?
Accordingly, we find furnaces fitted
up with electrical control, so that
the draft is opened or fuel added
when the temperature falls too low,
or the reverse, when the fame is
too fierce; when the fuel is gas this
stoking leaves nothing to be desired.
New mechanism Of this kind is con-
stantly being contrived. The in
ventor who began by comforting
electric nerves on muscles of brass
and iron has, thanks to electricity,
gone the length Of combining his
wires and magnets into something
very like a conscious and responsive
brain: his intelligence eliminates in
duplicating itself.-George lies, in
Popular Science Monthly.

AIN ITALIAN OFFICER.
Hsw They Conduct ths Financial End
of Their Establishments.


The Italian officers (and speak,
Of course, of those destitute of for
trne) are in continual need of money.
They begin by making debts and
this is not so easy as in France, the
trades people of the peninsula being
distrustful Thanks to their uni
form, however, they do succeed in it.
In their slang this is called driving
nails. But debts are inconvenient
in that there always comes a day
when they must be paid. Creditors
show their teeth, write letters and
make visits oftencr than politeness
demands. The notes, Endorsed many
times, are renewed at greatly in
creased. interest; then when they
fall due, as it is necessary to pay
something on account, the debtor
borrows right and left, wherever he
can. An officer of a high family,
who was received in princely So
ciety, secretly borrowed of coach
men, domestics, and even of grooms
in the houses where he was invited.
Some give themselves furiously to
the game of baccarat, and, as ! am
told, it sometimes happens that the
cards have little marks on them.
But soon these receipts are not
enough. The end Of every month
becomes maddening. The debtors
avoid everybody; some suddenly fall
sick and remain at home with doors
and windows closed others run
hastily to the Jew money lenders
and make all sorts of promises.
They sometimes end by paying 300
per cent.
In short, the life of italian officers
is, according to the phrase OF Jules
Lemaitre, Almost as well worth liv-
ing as the life of Don Juan. Their
successes are immense, but it is not
to the brilliancy of their intellectual
qualities that we must attribute
them. Ten times out of twenty their
conversation is wretched. They
hardly read at all; they have forgot
ten what they learned, and occupy
themselves very little with superior
truth. If ladies are present, an
artificial vivacity excites them.
They repeat WORKOUT compliments,
tell stale stories and city gossip,
often in a very caustic manner. On
the whole, Italian officers are charm
ing fellows, courageous, sufficiently
civil and moderately Intellectual
