WORLDS RECORD BROKEN
Prince Alert Paced Mile in 2:O2 Flat
 Great Race

Cleveland, O., July 2S-The last day of the grand circuit meeting was marked by another sensational performance. The worlds record for pacers in Hopeless, which was broken on Tuesday by Coney, when he went mile in 2:02A, was again lowered by Prince Albert today, when he covered the mile In 2:02.
 The 2:04 pace was the great race of the meeting. The ten entries dwindled to three when the starters were called out. The most important withdrawal was that of Searchlight, whose owners were given rea- son for their action. The only starters were Anaconda, who was a prohibitive favorite in the polls, and Books, Indiana and Prince Alert. In the first heat, after repeated scoring, Anaconda went away in the lead, and broke badly and fell back. Prince AL ert then won with ease. Anaconda was so Tar back that McHenry was forced to drive nm th elast three-quarters of the mile in l:So to say ehis disgrace. Walker could easily have distanced him as 1t was, but he held Prince Alert in finishing the mile In 2:B. In the second heat the three horses got off on even terms. Prince Alert rushed to the front, going to the quarter in thirty seconds and the half in 1:01A Then Mo Henry began to drive Anaconda The three- quarters was reached in 1:31%. Both horses came down the stretch like the wind. Walker did not touch Prince Alert with the whip until he was within four or five lengths of the wire. On the other hand. McHenry was doing everything in his

of Europe, Africa and America with over whelming success. MT. Hesselberg has a very large repertoire of the classic and modern composers, and over 100 original compositions of his own for piano, voice and violin. His talent Is inherited from his mothers side; his uncle, Charles David- off, being the worlds greatest cellist, and his youngest sister, Miss Retia Hesselberg, yet only 16, is at the present time one of the best pupils of the great violinist, Joa- chim, Berlin"
 Newspaper notices of Prof. Hesselberg from European papers:
 St. Petersburg, Russia-"Possesses great power and delicacy of touch and ranks among the greatest pianists of the day'
 Moscow, Russia-.To be able to perform as he did, one must have perfect technique all qualifications of touch, and artistic temperament"
 Berlin, Germany-"Carried the entire au- dience by storm Never has a more finished player appeared In our city"
 Paris, France-"Such work as that of last evening bids fair to soon place him on a level with Paderewski."
 What American papers say:
 New York World-"E "Edouard Hesselbers (pupil of Rubinstein) received a perfect ovation.
 Chicago Inter-O -Ocean-'The feature of real musical merit was furnished by Ed ouard Hesselberg. He has great technical skill and fancy in phrasing; plays octave passages with remarkable speed and with out apparent effort, unconsctously following the model of Rosenthil."
 Philadelphia Inquirer-"Hesselberg's com- mand of the keyboard Is almost beyond belief His work has never been excelled in this city"
 New Orleans Picaynue-"His success was phenomenal and the large audience was lavish, and justly so, with the applause"
 Kansas City-"Excellent technique and colors we'll Follows Paderewski's phras- ing closely"
 San Antonio, Tex-"Edouard Hesselbera was encored again and again. His touch Is wonderfully masterful, and yet as soft as 1t is strong''
 Little Rock, Ark.-"Equal, if not superior, to Paderewskl."
 Fort Worth, Tex.-"He Is one of the finest performers that ever visited our city"
 Dallas, Tex.-"Hesselberg' playing, to those who have not heard Paderewskl, ex- cites credulity as to the possibility of Paderewskl's ability to excel him."
 Portland. Me.-"Artist of the very best ability; no criticism is possible and no praise necessary"
 Trenton, N. J.-"Proved himself a thor ough master. and held his audience nearly two hours in close attention proving his genius"
 Auburn, N. Y-"At the close of his double number, MT. Hesselberg was re- celved with storm of applause"
 Hhica, N. Y-"Mr Hesselberg's playing last night brought down the house.
 Denver, Col.-"Hesselberg Is a pianist Who mas mastered the technique and in- fuses the poetry of Paderewski into his playing"
 The Wesleyan College and the people of Georgia and of the South are certainly to De congratulated on having such musical talent and advantages in this section

NORTH CAROLINA RESULTS
Democratic Ticket Will Win as Will
 Constitutional Amendment

Charlotte, N C., July 2S.-The Observer tomorrow will print special dispatches from every county In North Carolina forecasting the result of the state election next Thurs day, showing that the proposed constitu- tional amendment and the Democratic state ticket will have over 10000 majority. These estimate, 1t Is claimed, are unbiased and forecast of the correspondents in the e5 counties believe will be the actual re- suits.
 The figures show that the Republicans and Populists will probably carry 20 coun- ties, while 75 will give Democratic majori- ties ranging from 100 to 2,S0O. In sum- mary of It's forecasts the Observer says:
 Among other things brought out by a study of the specials from all over the state is the indication that the appeal of the Republican and Populist campaigners to the white voters of the middle western sections of the state to go against the amendment for fear it would disfranchise those of them who cannot read. has utter ly failed. The only evidence of the success of the work on the illiterate white voter Is given in few counties where the expecta- tion is that the amendment will run slight ly behind the Democratic state ticket. This loss, however, is probably offset in Republican counties in which the amend ment will lead the vote"

New York, July 2S.-At the Brighton Beach track today the Neptune stakes of 5000 for 2-year-oldS and the Peconic stakes for 3-year-olds were the features. kenil- worth and Water Color were scratched from the Neptune stakes but seven good youngsters accepted with Tommy Atkins, topweight and a hot favorite at to D. Alard Sheck, the fast Western horse, made his debut in the East with Tommy Burns in the saddle. He was held at s to l. They were off on the first break from the start and King Pepper rushed out to make the running. King Pepper showed the way by an open length into the stretch with All Green, Alard Sheck and Hard work heads apart behind him, while Tommy Atkins was closing fast. When strengthened out the favorite galloped over his field and won easily by two lengths. King Pepper stopped badly and in hard drive All Green beat Alard Sheck head for the place.
 The Prince of Meybourne was scratched from the Peconic stakes as were also Confalon and Motley. Yoloco was added to get third money. Brigader was a l to 3 favorite, but threw the boy at the post and ran the circuit of the track the wrong way at top speed. He stopped at the judges stand and managed to get short rest by consent of the stewards on the plea tbat new bride had to be obtained In the meantime the boys on James and Yoloco dismounted. The betting changed, Brgadier going to to and from l to 8 and James from Il to to even money. When they were finally sent off James rushed to the front, made all the running and won cle ,fly by three parts of a length from Brigadier on whom McCue rode very bad race. He rated along be- hind James and Yoloco to the stretch and then tried to come through the rail and was shut out. If he had gone on the out side he might have won even then Sum maries:

THE WESLEYAN
 FEMALE COLLEGE Something About Its Strong
 Music Faculty A NEW MUSICAL DIRECTOR Professor Edward Hesselberg, One of the Worlds Greatest Pian-
 ists, Elected to That
 Position
 

The Wesleyan college at Macon Ga., now has what is probably the strongest music faculty in the South. At the recent com mencement this department was almost en- tirely reorganized. Prof. Edouard Hessel- berg was elected director, and of the eight teachers under him in this department it Is said that every one has had the best advantages that either Europe or America could afford. Miss Kate Vail King for in- stance, a lady of national reputation, was chosen as teacher of voice culture Miss F. Eva Massey was elected one of the piano teachers. She first graduated in music at one of our southern colleges, then spent four years in the New England Conserva- tory and graduated there. She next taught three years in Converse college, and after wards went to Europe, where she has been studying music for the past two or three years under the great masters of Leipzig and Berlin. She comes immediately from Berlin to Wesleyan.
 The other teachers have had similar ad- vantages. Of Prof. Hesselberg, the direc- tor, we clip the following from the Macon News:
 This distinguished Russian piano vir- tuoso, composer, conductor and instructor, laureate of the Royal PhiTharmonique Con- servatory of Moscow, honorable member of the Liszt Society, began to study piano when but 51s years of age. receiving his first instruction from his mother First public appearance at the age of Koe- nigsberg.
