PATHOLOGICAL CONGRESS.
Rough Riders from Everywhere and Host
OF Military Heroes.

Never before in the history of Buff
falo Bill's Wild West and congress Of
Rough Riders has it's success been SO
pronounced as during the present sea-
son.
This can be accredited in a measure
to the unique general Characteristic Of
the entire entertainment, which is. in
every respect different from any other
show presented to the public. One
strong feature which has added mate
rally to the drawing qualities of the
exhibition is the timely production Of
the battle of San Juan hill The de-
tails of the original being so recently
and firmly impressed upon the minds
and hearts Of the American people,
that they welcome the enterprise Of
the management OF the Wild West in
affording them an opportunity TO see
this wonderfully realistic representa-
ton of that famous battle, and at the
same time allow them to give express
sion Of their patriotism almost directly
to the many score Of heroes Of the
Spanish war y
Col. Cody buffalo BID is as active
in his part Of the exhibition as ever
before, and his every appearance in the
arena is a signal for large expression
Of approval from all parts Of the
house. The Wild West and Rough
Riders will give performances after
noon and evening, July l.

A SERIOUS CHARGE.
Young Herbert J.Ste-
vens Arrested for
Manslaught ter.
THREW IRON WHEEL AT PLAYMATE
1t Struck Oscar Pratt and
Probably Caused
His Death.

Herbert ]. Stevens, son of William
Stevens, employed at the Worcester
Electric Light Company, and residing
at &c Dix street, was arrested yester-
day afternoon by Inspector Stone and
booked at station l for manslaughter.
1t is alleged that he caused the death
of Oscar F. j. Pratt, a young fellow IA
years of age, who lives at Il Home
street.
According to the story told to In
spector Stone, number Of young fell
lows were playing at the corner OF
North Ashland and Dix streets, last
Wednesday, and for time amused
themselves by throwing things at each
other. Some one Of the boys picked up
an iron wheel of toy wagon with the
axle attached to it, and hit young Ste
venS in the back
He picked it up on the street, where
it had fallen, and turning to young
Pratt, he said oscar, did you throw
this?" Young Pratt laughed and said
no. He started to run across the
street and Stevens threw the wheel at
him with the intention of striking him
in the back. Young Pratt saw Stevens
throw it, and attempted to dodge 1t.
The wheel struck him near the base of
the brain. He put his hand back and
felt the blood trickling down. He
walked home unassisted, and his
mother bathed the wound. Since that
hour he has complained of terrible
pains in his head, and his folks think
ing it nothing other than headache,
did not send for doctor until Sunday
evening, when Drs. o. H. Everett and
]. c. McKeon were called. After a
night of terrible suffering, which the
physicians did their best to alleviate,
the boy died at $50 a. m. yesterday
morning.
Medical Examiner f. II. Baker per-
formed an autopsy on the body of
young Pratt yesterday morning, and as
result Stevens was arrested. His
mother has been dead for number of
years, and the little fellow has been
allowed to run around for hours at a
time without being interfered with. His
father was at work at the Worcester
Electric Light Company, yesterday,
when the boy was arrested. He will be
tried at the juvenile session of the CEN
trail district court this morning.

GREATEST ATTRACTION.
That's What One Canadian Thinks About
Our Own Major Taylor

Mai. Taylor Of this city bids fair to
eclipse all other bicycle riders the COM
ing season as an attraction. 1t does
not look as if the N. C. A. riders will
be in it for a minute with him. The
N. C. A. men are making a strong bid
TO be represented at the international
championships in Montreal this sum
mer. but Maj. Taylor is the man the
Canadians want
H. b. Donly, secretary Of the Cana
dian Wheelmen's Association, recently
said: Give us Maj. Taylor and we can
run the meet without any Of the other
American professionals. / consider
him the best attraction we could secure
and with him as an American repre-
sentative, I do not fear that our cham
pjonships will not be representative"
The outlaws get it on the point OF the
law from a statement Mr.. Donly made
He SAYS racing men under suspension
cannot hope to compete at Montreal IN
less as. nominees of the i. a. ".
Men under suspension will have TO
hustle to get in the list Of nominees OF
the l.. A. w for the international races.
Chairman Fred Gelach recently an
nounced that he win not name anybody
unless he has competed in at least three
national circuit races. The circuit
starts at Indianapolis the latter part
of this month. The chances for sus-
pended professionals close July 90

HIGHER TAXES POSSIBLE.
The Happy News That Is Staring Citizens of
Worcester in the Face.

1t is generally conceded that Worces-
ter's tax rate will be higher this year
than last. The expenses this year will
be much heavier than last. Just what
the rate will be can not be stated de-
fnitely, but will probably be in the
.neighborhood of ST per $1,000, as against
SIG. 20 per $1,000 last year,
The assessors found $1,000, 900 worth
of new buildings last year, while this
year they have discovered only about
81 800 900 worth, which represents a
failing off of S100O,00O. The assessors
have not made a general increase Of
valuation for the CITY, and the only
way the expenses can be met is to tax
more for each thousand dollars worth
of property.
The running expenses Of the city
have been kept within reasonable lin
its this year, but the interest on loans
negotiated to meet extraordinary ex-
penses is beginning to pile up. The
sewer department is eating up a lot
of money and the Kettle brook loan
lis to be negotiated soon.
The assessors are making good prog
ress and hope to get the rate figured
out and the lists made up earlier than
in previous years. A new map book
lis being made to cover the section of
the city west of Park avenue and south
of Chandler street, and an equalization
of valuation will be made there next
wear
