Derby Wins an 11-Inning Game.

berDy " HE HI 1ane.
 Derby Sept. 10.-The Derby "rooters" outrooted themselves this afternoon when the Angels" won from Water bury in an eleven inning game Mans field was in the box, and though he has proved puzzler to the champions of Meriden, he has been Derby's mas cot, for in the three games that he has been in the points against Derby, the latter team has won out. Waterbury s defeat to-day is, however directly at tributable to Catcher Donahue, who let in the winning run on passed ball. Kennedy went In to pitch for Derby, but after two home runs and a single were made off of him, Captain Denny thought 1t was time to make a change and Brown was put in, and he kept the visitors down to four hits for the rest of the game. The game was one of the most exciting played on the grounds this season, and as usual in the Water bury games, had Garrison finish. The score:
 Derby ......2 0 0 1 1 001 1-8-S-3 Waterbury g 3 0 1 0 0 % 0-7-9-5

PERIODICAL EARTHQUAKES

The investigation of small periodical changes is rendered difficult chiefly by the doubt which so often exists, wheth- CT the results obtained by the ordinary methods are due to accident, or prove some real periodically acting cause. Attention need only be drawn to the many calculations which have been made to trace the sun-spot period in terrestrial phenomena, such as rainfall or temperature, to show that widely different conclusions may be drawn from the same evidence according as greater or smaller value is attached to the element of chance.
 I have been engaged for some time in applying the theory of probability to in- vestigations of this nature, with view if possible in every instance to'assign a definite number to the probability that any periodicity which may be found in the record of some physical phenome- non is of an accidental nature. In a paper recently communicated to the Royal society, have applied the re- suits obtained to the periodicities of earthquakes. MT Knott has recently published some investigations, conduct ed with skill and labor, which in his judgment were favorable to the exist ence of a true lunar influence on earth quakes. The theory of probability. however, does not support that view. The table may be considered as conclu- sive that if a lunar effect exists, it must be so small that 1t is quite hidden by accidental effects. For the present, at i any rate. the evidence Is against such a lunar influence. A discussion of the pe- riods, coincident with the lunar months leads to the same conclusion.
 It is otherwise with the annual and daily periods, which have recently been discussed by Mir. Davidson. Here the amplitudes found are decidedly toe large to be due to accident: and we may therefore say, with a degree ot
 probability amounting practically tc certainty, that there is a yearly period giving a maximum of earthquakes in | December, and daily period giving a ' maximum some time between ter , o'clock In the morning and noon.-Pro- l lessor Arthur Schuster In Nature.

Brooklyn Defeats the Reds.

Brooklyn, Sept. 10.-Breitenstein pitched anything but $10,000 ball for the Cincinnatis against the Brooklyns this afternoon and as result the troll ley dodgers are entitled to the series, having scored seven victories against the Reds five. Chauncey Fisher fooled his former pals, and the four runs cred ited to them were due more to luck than good playing. The score:
 Brooklyn .....2 2 1 0 0 9 4 "-11-15--1 Cincinnati 10 0 0 1 0 6 O. 4-12-3

NEWS OF THE NORTH WOODS.


 The sunset shot and the early morn ing shot will be more than ever resort ed to. In such cases the hunter lies in wait near the known feeding places of the deer, or paddles noiselessly in a canoe up and down the streams that are their haunts. This last method of hunting demands great skill In padding as we'll as fine marksmanship. The hunter must be dressed In dark clothing and must be accompanied by man who knows how to paddle canoe with out noise. Both must be we'll acquaint- ed with the habits of the deer, and must know when to shoot and when to reserve fire for better opportunity The sunset shot is a favorlte with those hunters who hunt before the legal season opens. The deer are then less timid than In midseason, so that the chances of success are much greater than after the season of legal hunting has opened.
 It Is believed that the law against bounding will not be broken, because 1t is difficult for a hunter to use dogs without being detected. It Is easy enough to hunt out of season with safe ty and to kill more than the allotted number of two deer in a season to the hunter, but there will be hundreds of ears and eyes to detect violation of the law against bounding.
 Meanwhile guides and hotels keep
 ;taf I of the law at the next session of the Legislature. It should be the duty of every true sportsman to exert every effort not only to retain the law, but to extend it's period for all time. Stop the bounding of deer forever is the way to do it.-Union Observer.

PHILADELPHIA, May 2i.-After being
twice chased by Spanish gunboats and
passing through n perfect stt rm of shot,
which splashed i'm the water across the
vessels bows, the British fruit steamer
Ethelred passed through the excitin
ordeal unscathed and arrived at this
port after five days run from Port
Antonio, Jamaica.
When the Ethelred left here May ~,
IL was the intention of Captain John
ID. Hart to accompany her, but he was
arrested as he was about to step on the
gang plank to go aboard. As it was
his invalid daughter was passenger.
1t is supposed that agents of the Span
ish government in this city had notified
the Spanish authorities at Havana that
Hart would be on the vessel, hence the
effort to hold up the Ethelred in Cuban
waters.
The first encounter with the Spanish
cruisers occurred off Cape Maisi, on the
trip down. Just after dusk on Sunday
evening May lG, gunboat without any
lights shot out from under the Maisi
capes, and crowding OH all steam
steered directly for the fruit vessel.
After stcaming for an hour without
gaining an inch the gunboat turned a
searchlight on the other vessel.
All steam was crowded on the Ethel
red, which was beginning TO show the
Spaniard clean pair Of heels, when a
cloud of smoke belched fIom the
cruisers side, and second later a
solid shot cut the water half mile
ahead of her Lows. Then came Sec
ond and third shot, each nearer than
the others. Captain Israel kept on his
course, and after another hours hot
chase the Spaniard dropped from the
race.
The second chase happened last
Thursday afternoon, in almost the exact
spot in which the first attempt to hold
the vessel up occurred. Just as the
Ethelred rounded Cape Maisi big
Spanish gunboat of the newest type
started out from under the cape and
gave chase TO the Ethelred For two
hours the chase was kept up, enlivened
now and then by a solid shot throwing
up sheet of white spray just ahead of
the swift vessels bow.
1t began to look as if the Spaniard
meant to chase the Ethelred clear to
the Delaware capes, when another
steamship was sighted and the gun.
boat sheered oil and gave vigorous
chase to the newly discovered steamer.
