CYCLOMERE PARK RACES
George Martin Comes in a Close Sec
Ond to Jones.
Fair Attendance in Spite Of InClement Wea-
ther-Time Races Declared or on
Account Of Damp Track.

The attendance at Cyclopere
park last night showed that rainy
weather could not dampen public
interest in the events. The
National band was present aud
kept up the spirits of the crowd.
The race of the evening, of
course, was the two thirds of
mile professional, in the first
heat OF which Martin and Sylvia
We're pitted against Whitman,
Martin winning in LAS 4 5 with
Whitman second. In the second
heat Jones, Sbarack and Sylves-
ter were the contestants, Jones
taking II big lead and maintaining
1t to the end in l:50 fiat. La the
final Martin, Jones and Whitman
contested, and to add interest to
the race were paced by Lishman
and Harvey on u tandem.
Whitman fell in the first
lap but there was a beau
tiful race between Jones and Mar
tin for first place, the Coast boy
being little the speediest and
taking the race in l:31.
The mile greenhorn race went
to q. Erickson in 2:45 3-5; Tom
LlOyd second.
In the final heat of the one
third. mile amateur, Damon, King,
Giles and Walker lined up, the
latter winning in SO seconds; King
second.
The half-mile amateur handi
cap went to Arthur Giles, Damon
second. Time lib | 5.
The track being damp and heavy
from the rain that had fallen, the
two races against time were post
poned until Saturday.
Trilby Fowler gave his usual
exhibition of fancy riding, which
pleased all. There is general
desire TO see him enter in some of
the races.

DON'T Start Rumors.

Damaging truths are bad enough.
Damaging untruths-or truths PERM.
ciously exaggerated or purposely col
ored-are worse still. In these times,
when business confidence Is none too
firmly established, 1t i'll becomes any
man to endanger by word or insinua-
ton the confidence that may exist be-
tween creditor and debtor. Many a
bank has gone down in consequence
of a run excited by false alarm; and the
shores of commercial history are
strewn with the wrecks of countless
firms whose downfall was brought
about by the sudden commercial de
mands of suspicious creditors
business is built on credit.
Credit is built on confidence.
There is no surer way Of undermin.
ine a mans business than by giving
crpdence to and circulating rumors
ahout him. The man who stealthily
anplies the torch to a building is no
more despcable than he who applies
the firebrands of distrust to the repu-
tation of a business establishment. 1t
is with this thought that we say that
those men who indiscriminately dis
seminate incorroborated rumorS are
guilty of an act for which there should
he a fitting punishment.

GIObular LIGHTNING.

Lightning balls" are comparatively
rare phenomena, although there are
many recorded instances Of their ap-
pearance during thunder storms. The
cause of their formation Is more or less
a mystery, but some light has been
thrown upon it recently by the expert
ments of Signor Righi at Bologna. He
has succeeded in producing artificial
lightning balls with powerful Holtz
electric machine and battery of Ley
den jars, and has made photographs of
them in various stages Of their exist
ence. The conditions under which he
produces his mimic lightning are: high
resistance in the discharging circuit,
great capacity in the condenser, and a
rarefaction of the air through which
the discharge takes place.

Extensive Good Fortune,

The following story Of a ''great f1nd''
"a five-dollar bill-and It's greater con-
sequences is reprinted from the New
York World. 1t bears very plainly the
marks Of eXaggeratiOn, but there must
be many Of our readers who will know
by their own experience that it is based
on one Of the facts Of human nature.
Paxton found five-dollar bill on the
sidewalk the other day, and If he
should find another it would probably
bring him to the poorhouse.
'Hooray!" he said, as he jammed the
bill into his vest pocket. "Now I'll get
that derby hat I've wanted so long. I
saw one yesterday that this bill will
just pay for"
The bill did pay for the hat, but not
for the two-dollar pair Of gloves that
went with 1t.
When he went home to dinner he Laid
a two-pound box Of Huyler's best can
dy on his wife's lap, and said, with a
kiss such as he had not given her since
the days Of their honeymoon:
"Guess what found to-day"
81 couldn't, my dear"
''No, l don't suppose you could. Well,
found five-dollar bill, and l thought
l could afford to be little extravagant
on the strength Of it. paid two dollars
for that candy, box included. Then l
got two Of the best seats for the thea
ter tonight, and couldn't we afford q
little supper afterward? Bought me an
elegant new white silk necktie and the
cutest and neatest little pearl pin, and
if you want new pair Of evening
gloves you may have them. 1t isn't
every day l find a f1ve-dollar bill"
''No, thank heaven, 1t isn't" said his
wife to herself, and she said still more
fervently when he added:
81 bought the loveliest bit of bric-a.
brac at an auction sale 1 happened to
run into. 1t was a big bargain at five
dollars. I'd had to pay at least eight
dollars for 1t at regular sale. 1 found
that five dollars just in time"
"How did you happen to buy that lit
tie sewlng-chair you sent home to-
dayW
"Oh, that? Well, heard you say the
other day that you wanted one when
we could afford it, and when saw that
In window to-day with card on 1t
saying that it was only five dollars, l
thought If we couldn't afford it when
I'd just found five dollars we never
could afford it, so l ran in and bought
It,"
And when he had bought ninety
three dollars and sixty-four cents
worth Of things with that five dollars,
his anxious wife brought him to a halt
by saying one evening:
"Where did you find that five-dollar
bill, George"
"On X street"
"Well, here's an advertisement in the
evening paper stating that poor wild
ow lost FIVE dollars on X street Tues
day morning. l haven't doubt that
the bill you found was hers, and the
poor woman must have it back again"
And she got it, to PaXton's disgust.

MRS. PINKHAM'S STANDING
INVITATION.

Women suffering from any form of
female weakness sareinvited topromptly
communicate with Mrs. Pinkham, at
Lynn, Mass. All letters are re-
ceived, opened, read, and answered by
women only. A woman can freely
talk of her private illness to woman.
Thus has been established the eternal
confidence between Mrs. Pinlham and
the women of America which has never
been broken. Out of the vast volume
of experience which she has to draw
from, it is more than possible that she
has gained the very knowledge that
will help your case. She asks nothing
in return except your good will, and
her advice has relieved thousands.
Surely any woman, rich or poor, is very
foolish if she does not take advantage
of this generous offer of assistance.

Varying Power of X-Rays.

At recent meeting Of the Royal So
ciety in London a description was Civ
en- of the change that occurs in the
penetrative power of the X-rays in pro-
norton as the air Is more and more
completely exhausted from the vacu-
um tube In which the rays are pro-
duced. At certain degree Of exhaus-
ton the rays penetrate the flesh and
show the bones of a human hand in
shadow With greater exhaustion of
air the flesh becomes almost perfectly
transparent, while the bones remain
opaque. With still higher degree OF
exhaustion the rays begin to penetrate
the bones; and with the highest vacu-
nm through which the electric dis
charge will pass, the bones them
selves become almost as transparent
as the flesh. Similar variations In pen
etrative power can be produced by in
creasing or decreasing the power Of
the current, or by varying the electri-
cal resistance Of the tube.

Curious Copper Mining.

The United States Consul at Santi-
ago de Cuba reports that about nine
miles from that town there are copper
mines, having shafts from 900 to 1,2OO
feet deep, which were regularly work
ed until 1867, since which time they
have been abandoned and have become
filed with water, all but 300 feet of
their depth being below sea level. But
in later years copper was obtained
from the drowned mines In an interest
ing manner. The water with which
they are filled holds a considerable
quantity of copper in solution, and this
water was pumped out into tanks.
Scraps of iron were then thrown into
1t, and the dissolved copper became
deposited on the iron. When the de-
posit grew sufficiently thick 1t was
broken off, and the iron was thrown
back into the water to gather a fresh
,ncrustation Of the red metal.

Treatment.-Justa as the treatment OF
the physician must be regulated by the
character of the patient, so must diff
'erent methods of treatment be used in
attempts at fostering the religious de-
velopment.-Dr. D. S. Jordan, Unita-
rian, Oakland, Cal.
Purpose In Life-We must have a
distinct purpose In living and we cam
not put that purpose too high. A man
only becomes what he makes himself,
and we rarely reach the goal without
eXerting every energy.-Bishop Whit
taker, EpiscOpalian, Philadelphia, Pa.
Punishment.- has said that as
surely as we die in a state of sin we
shall be condemned to eternal punish
ment. This alone is enough to make
one shudder, and, therefore, many re-
tect the words, allowing fear to blind
heir reason.-Rev. NJ. Otis, Catholic,
SAN Francisco, Cal
Duty.-The climax of a human career
IS reached not necessarily when what
The world calls success comes, but
when, in the presence Of probable de-
Feat and surrender, the resolve is made
to walk alone, If need be, and do ones
duty-Rev. L. A. Linkeley, Lutheran,
Philadelphia, Pa.
War.-War is terrible from anv stand
point, and when carried ON for the per-
sonal qualification of pride Or avarice
In the whole catalogue of human
crimes there is none blacker. But there
are times when war Is grand and when
Gods sanction rests upon it-Rev. S.
g. Weiskotten, Lutheran, Brooklyn,
N. Y.
Duty Of Life.-To do good to others,
10 relieve suffering, to nurse the sick
to save young lives by education, and
all similar efforts carry their rewards
with them, and may be practiced for
the pure enjoyment which they afford !;
then they are defensibie ON rational
yrounds.-Rev. G. Gottheil, Hebrew,
New York City.
The Book of Books.-I lean upon the
Did book. and l challenge those who
doubt its words to show me where It's
words are wrong The word is right,
interpret it as you may. 1t is Gods
word, Interchangeable, unalterable 1t is
his work, and shall stand from ever
lasting until everlaSting.-Rev William
Ramsay, Methodist, Philadelphia, Pa.
Sense.-Our bodily senses are the
axles ON which character turns to and
fro. A man with no senses Is a man
without sense, actual or possible. Each
man will be judged by what his eye
saw or refused to see; by what his ear
heard or refused to hear; by fhat his
sense did or refused to do.-Rey. G. d.
Boardman, Baptist, Philadelphia, Pa
The Old and the New.-There has al
ways been change and evolution in re-
igion and religious circles. Nothing
can remain stationary. The old wine
skins must allow the new to have u
place in the preservation and distribu-
ton of the Wine of life All that is true
In the old endures. Truth cannot die.
Falsehood, whether Old or new, cannot
die too soon.-Rev. H. T. Shepard, Con-
gregationalist, San Francisco, Cal.
Gods Giving.-God is the source Of
good. His nature is to give. Outpour-
ng, bestowing, making better and more
blessed-that is the way love, his be-
Ing, expresses itself. And he is the
only source of good. Every gift that
IS worth having, every true joy, every

session is ours, not through our earn
ing, but from his giving G. A.

Says Priests May Marry Soon.

A French ecclesiastic has written to
the London Times saying that the next
great change in the Roman Catholic
church will be the repeal of the law of
clerical celibacy. The movement, he
thinks, might well start III this country,
under the lead of Cardinal Gibbons and
Archbishop Ireland, but will take time
The present pope will hardly indorse it,
nor can the French ecclesiastics take it
up just now. When it does come, how
ever, the writer prophesies large exc
dus of Anglican clergymen to join the
church of Rome.

A Birds, Sea Resort.

Naturalists consider it wonderful
fact that the Bermuda Islands have
only seven native species Of land birds,
while no less than a hundred and
twenty-eight other species pay visits
to the Islands. Many Of these visitors
are birds which pass the summer In
the United States, and utilize the Ber-
nuda Islands as a convenient winter
resort, thus initiating some Of their hui
man compatriots. Even some Ameri-
can bats follow the example Of the
birds by wintering in the Bermudas.

Great Heat in Tupn.Js

One Of the most difficult problems
connected with the construction of the
proposed tunnel under the Simplon
range in the Alps is that of keeping
down the temperature. The deeper
we go under the surface Of the earth
the greater the heat bcomes, and since
the new tunnel will run not much less
than 1000 feet beneath the summit of
Monte Leone, 1t Is anticipated that the
temperature will be as high as 104 de-
grees Fahrenheit. During the digging
of the st. GOthard tunnel the tempera-
ture rose to SO degrees. The heat af-
fected the health of the workmen,
more than half of whom were attack
ed by disease. The still more intense
heat to be encountered in the Simplon
tunnel can only be reduced by care
ful system of ventilation.

Gifts to Universities.

The rapid accumulation Of large pri-

ia ces of this tendency have been fire.
ouently set forth. The principal COM
pensation lies in the occasional exam
ples of philanthropy on a large scale
The Winslow mail., 1897-09-11

which is made possible by this con.
centration Of wealth in the hands Of
individuals.
Not long ago Columbia University
made an appeal for four million dollars
to erect new buildings. The responses
were such as to show that the loyalty
and the resources Of the friends of the
institution had not been overestimated.
The University of Chicago, but a few
years old, has received gifts to the
amount Of twelve millions. Harvard.
Yale, Princeton and other old lnstitu-
tions record from year to year benefac-
tionS running up into the hundreds Of
thousands. President Eliot in a recent
report, states that within three years
Harvard has received nearly six hun
dred thousand dollars, but that within
the same period at least FIVE other uni
verslties have had their endowments
increased by much larger sums.
The endowment of universities Is. of
course, but one of the forms which pri-
vate munificence takes. It is how
ever, In one respect particularly wise
form. Ihe common schools may depend
for their support upon the general feel
ing that they are necessary. No COM
munity can afford to be without them.
But ;he value to the average man of
the university is not so palpable. The
higher learning Is the possession of a
few; it's benefits reach the great ma
1orlty indirectly through the advance
Of science and the increase Of knowl-
edge.
The university, therefore, cannot
count upon an effective popular sup
port. In all ages 1t has had to rely very
largely on the patronage of the very
rich. The great English universities
have owed their strength to kings and
earls and bishops. In America the
place Of these titled givers is taken by
the successful merchant or manufactur
er or railroad builder.-Youth's Com.

Seeing by Night,

Nocturnal creatures assume night
activity for some other reason than
that they cannot see by day or that
they see better by night. The BAT sees
admirably in the brightest sunlight, as
any one knows who has ever teased one
by boxing a stick at it. 1t will open
its mouth and make an angry grab at
the stick, when it is several inches dis
tant from it. Prof Bolles says it is the
same with the owl. They see perfectly
in bright sunlight. and better at night
than most creatures.
