AN OLD MANS LUCK AT NOME

Everywhere on the beach one con-
stantly met with surprises. Here a
former acquaintance, there a neighbor,
yonder a youthful college graduate,
while many Of the miners were over so
years OF age. An elderly man from
New York city, who was forced out of
employment by the organization of a
trust, scraped together enough OF this
worlds goods to purchase a good outfit
and reached Capc Nome early in the
season of 1899, leaving wife and family
at home praying for his ultimate sue
cess. After some considerable pros
pecting he finally located claim with
an excellent 'pay streak" As the gold
had accumulated in hts rocker in rather
large quantity, he was overcome with
feelings of gratitude and THANKSGIVING,
and his rugged frame shook with the
emotions within, tears of joy affording
q pleasant relief. For this moment he
had withstood unaccustomed hard
knocks. and suffered rennorse of con-
science in the thought that perhaps his
family werc by that time in rather
straitened circumstances. But now.
with full realization of all that his
newly-found riches meant to the loved
ones at home he could not contain
himself for joy. Many happenings of
this nature occurred at Cape Nome last
season, and will, no doubt, find repeti-
ton during the season of 1900 Some.

streak" threw their hats into the air

voices fer joy.-From Harper's Weekly

NEW LONDON y DERBY G,

New London, Aug. 9.-About 200 en-
thusiasts sat out a tedious game which
resulted in a victory for the home
team over Derby this afternoon. Derby
played good ball In the first few in
nings, and the locals put up an inferior
article for the time, the visitors thus
gaining lead which 1t was thought
would hold New London until the end,
But by hard, steady team work and
loose playing on the other side, New
London finally cut down the lead and
in the last inning scored two runs and
won the game. The feature of the game
was the batting of Keane. who made a
hit every time at bat. Score:

BRIDGEPORT s, MERIDEN 8.

Bridgeport, Aug. 9.-~Meriden gained
an easy victory over Bridgeport here to-
day. Giblin was put in to pitch for the
locals, but he was hit so hard in the
first two innings that six runs were
scored by Meriden, and Corcoran was
substituted. Corcoran did better, and
the visitors We're able to make only two
hits during the remainder of the game.
Bridgeport's fielding was wretched, and
the two runs after the second inning
made by Meriden were due to errors.
The feature of the game was the bat
ting of Conner, who made a hit every
time he went to bat-one three-bag
ger, but his exhibition with the stick
was somewhat clouded by an almost in
excusable muff in the field which was
responsible for two of Meriden's runs.

VIII be Here This Afternoon.


Waterbury, Aug. 9.--New Haven lost
to Waterbury this afternoon in one OF
the most sensational baseball games
ever seen in this city At the end of
the fourth inning the score stood, New
Haven G, Waterbury 2. Neither scored
in the fifth, but a batting streak in
the sixth enabled Waterbury to tally
four runs and the score was tied. Each
team sent one man across the plate in
the seventh, but in the eighth New
Haven was unable to tally and two
runs by Waterbury gave the latter a
substantial lead. In the ninth, how
ever, New Haven scored two runs in
the first half, again tying the score,
and the winning run for Waterbury was
made on q daring steal from third by
Fitzpatrick. Fitzpatrick started for
home just as the pitcher was about to
deliver the ball, and when the batsmau
caught the sphere and sent a little easy
grounGcr to second the runner was
within a few yards of home The ball
was fieldcd TO first and the batsman de-
clareG out, but Fitzpatrick reached
homo and the run gave the game to
Waterbury. The batting on both sides
wac unusually heavy, the grand total
Of hits numbering thirty five. Sensa-

ONE OF the plsnks in the plat
form adopted by the republican state
convention a. San Antonio points out
. way by,which purity of elections In
Texas may be assured. That way Is
to change the laws, and remove the
option feature. The Australian ballot
and registration should be made COM
pulsory by law in every part OF the
state. II the thing IL riRht-and no
decent Citizen will deny that-the law
in Its present form simply puts .
premium on lswlessness and politioa
crime. The republican party of the
state should stand as q stone wall for
purity Of elections, and the local party
ought to take leading part in the
agitation for q modification of the ex-
listing law.

MUSICAL PRODIGY
A Baby Who Plays Wonderfully On
the Plano.

|
| II the Figaro's musical critic has not
| been overcome by his enthusissm-as
sometimes occurs in the case of writer's
for the Paris press, as we'll as in other
parts of the world-the most wond erful
infant PRODIGY of ell has been brought
to light. This prodigy is a three .and-a-
hslf-yesr-old Spanish boy, named Pepi-
| 10 Rodrigues Ariola, whose specially
is the piano, and he was exhibited be-
was in SCI sion last week. The Figaro's
story is that when Pepito was
only two aud a half years old his
| mother, an excellent musician, one day
| heard some one plRyin on her plano in
an adjoining room, which she had in
left open after executing a piece of clss-
sical music. The music that WAS being
played was a repetition of that the se-
nora had been playing, and as he knew
there was no one in the room out her
baby, she was at fret somewhat alar-
med. Her fears, however, gave way to
surprise when she discovered that 1t
was little Pepito at the piano, who was
repeating from memory the notes he
had heard a few minutes before.
From that time on, says the Figaro,
the mothers piano became the child 8
daily and inseparable companion. He
gave himself up, heart and soul, to
music, without teacher, and the pro-
gress he achieved In elk months al.
most stupefed his mother. When
Pepito, still according to the same
authority. played before the members
of the congress o number of airs and
improvisasiOns, it WAS difficult to con-
ceive anything more astonishing, for,
though his little hand could not posi-
bly, stretcS over more than five notes
Of the octave, yet be was able, by q
series of most dexterous movements,
to strike the octave.
Further, his enthusiastic critic goes
on, he managed to infuse the greatest
warmth and emotion into his playing,
and, although he has never taken q
lesson In harmony or composition. he
can render with the utmost hielity
any unfamiliar tune that he may ear,
developing 1t and finding variations.
"At other times" says the Figaro,
'rhe child's beautiful eyes lost In
profound meditation, he oomposes aud,
although the baby knows nsught Of
over q sweetmeat refused or the dread
of swallowing nauseous medicine, he
evolves passages replete with passion
and melancholy, he has invented Q
little technique OF his own which the
most skillful harmonists could only
criticise in small points OF detail.
"When he had finished playing be-
fore the grave members OF the congress,
Petite turned toward them and burst,
into laughter, as though he had play.
ed some amusing trick. Strange TO
say, he is, nevertheless, a bright and
healthy child, and the prospects are
that he will one day be q composer of
genius. "-Exchange.
