TO STOP RUNAWAYS.
Councilman Water man Gives Chief
Baker a Suggestion.

Councilman Waterman called upon
Chief OF Police Baker today and told that
official that each team in tho vicinity of
the depot should be ia charge of one man
so as To prevent runaw8ys.
nlr. Waterman was led to make this
suggestion owing TO tho fact that -
noon today "a four horse team ran away
from Exchange place and had gone some
distance before IL ws secured. and not un-
til one man had been quite badly iDjuret.
The horses had been eating their mid
day meal. and none of the four had on q
bride. Escaping steam from locomo-
tive frightened them. AS soon as they
started dozen or moro men started after
them, and as there was nothing but the
feed bags on the horses heads TO get hold
of the men experienced considerable
trouble in bringing them TO n standstill.
The chief ordered Superintendent of
Hacks No-cross Co notify all OF the team
ters not only on Exchange place, hut all
over the city that when they feed their
horses at noon that they must make them
secure, and unless they do, the owners
will los held responsible.
10 is suggested that the wheels Of the
carriages be tied or "staked" so that
when ths brides are taken from the
horses they cannot run.

Second Day OF Championship Golf
Tournament at Manchester.

Manchester. Mass, Aug. % Tho SEQ
ond day Of the Ladies' Championship Golf
Tournament at the Essex County Club
brought much moro favorable weather
conditions than those which prevailed
yesterday. The early hours were not
promising. tut during the forenoon the
sun came through the clouds an! hy the
time play began the weather was all that
could be desired. There was little delay
in starting tie match and 10 was about
10 O'Clock when the first play was made.
The official drawings for the day s
matches were as follows: Miss. {. II.

Her first stroke was unfortunate. tho ball
landing on tho edge OF tho woods out of
bounds. Her second stroke was a beauty.
however, and started the ball in tho right
direction, and although Mrs. Merrill was
more fortunate at the start, Miss Long
worth soon had a good lead.
Miss Hoyt. as on yesterday, attracted
much attention. Miss Curtis, who had
drawn Miss Hoyt as her partner, started
the seconu matgn. she made good drive
at the outset. Miss Hovt's initial stroke,
though a good ore, was not up to expecta-
tons.
Miss Curtis, Miss Griscom and Mrs
Hooper in the third match were each very
unfortunate in their start each making
poor strokes
Miss Sargent, who opened the fourth
match won tho first distinct applause.
She made beautiful straight drive of 230
yards. Her partner was less fortunate, the
ball landing in tho brook on the opening
stroke.

Suzerainty of England in
South Africa
Remarks of President Kruger
May Cause Excitement.
Does Not Admit the Claims Made by
the British Secretary.

Pretoria, Aug. 25.-At meeting of tho
Volksraad today President Kruger de-
liyered "a speech which is likely tn cause
great excitement in Great Britain. The
president said shat the relations between
Great Britain and the South African re-
public were regulated by the convention
of 1854.
He added that in the convention ut
November. 1881. reference TO the suzer-
ainty of Great Britain did appear, but
that in the next convention, that of 1854,
not single word occurred bearing pre-.
cisely upon that point and since then tie
suzerainty had ceased 10 exist
This, no continued, did not do away
with the fact that the south African re-
public and the whole nation recognized
the convention and would endeavor to
maintain il entirely, but they could not
recognize the suzerainty of Great Britain,
because t was entirely opposed 10 that
convention. They wished 10 maiutuin
friendly relations with the whole world
and in this way race hatred would grad
ually disappear.
President kruger's remarks were
greeted withthe ioudest applause from all
present
President Kruger's remarks formed a
reply To the statements OF joseph Cham
berlain, colonial secretary, made some
time ago iu the House of Commons, 20
the effect that Great Britain exercised
suzerlan rights over the little South Afri-
can republic and which were the occasion
OF considerable debate.

Of these annual fairs there can be no doubt.
Results far greater than were anticipated

immense number OF useful inventions, val
uablo improvements In agricultural imple'
mcnts, farming tools and dairy appliances
have been successfully brought 10 the notice OF
the farmers, and made use of by them in the
prosecution OF their work. Great as have been
tho advantages Of these improvements, they
have undoubtedly tended 20 depopulate the
farms and 20 increase the population of the
cities IL is estimated that from 1870 TO 1890
no less than 100000 men in this country
had left the farms for mechanical and other
pursuits. Tho work OF farming hitherto per-
formed by man was now being done in great
measure by machines. This condition of
things gave rise 10 "A decided change in the
character of the farm labor that remained.
The ordinary farm laboror disappeared, in a
measure, 10 rcappoar as the gardener, the
florist and the sraIsers Of vegetables and

TURNING WHITE.
Change of Color in the Skin of
MulattO Barber in Progress.

Trenton, n. u, Aug. 25.-Iiarry Cole, n
negro barber at West Hanover and Chancery
streets. is greatly puzzled now. TO-. his skin is
changing its color.
4 little less than two years ago Cole, who is
a mulatto, noticed on his right arm some little
white spots. Thoy gradually spread and ran
together until they formed large white spots.
Then the same thing occurred on his chest,
legs and hands, until now he is more than
two-tlirds white. Strange 10 say, the change
of color Is less noticeable on his face. while
the only portion of tho body which Is un-
changed is from the ankles down.
Phvsicens have decided the change is due to
n gradual absorption by the blood of the pig
meut that colors the skin. What is the cause
of the absorption is unknown.
