GRAND CIRCUIT RACES.

HARTFORD, Conn, September s.
The big event in the racing in the
grand circuit to-day was the trial of
Cresceus, owned by Ketcham farm, To-
ledo, Ohio, to beat the worlds stall
lion record by Directum of 2:05A.
Cresceus was driven by George Ketch-
am and was urged by Joe Patchen,
driven by Dickerson, and by runner
driven by Walker. Dickerson coached
the horse to the half alone when Walk
er came in with his runner, both push
ing him at the flank to the wire. Gre
sceus did not make skip in the mile
and the time by quarters was BIN
1:02%, 1881. 2:0434, beating the rec
ord with apparent ease, finishing very
strong and not in the least blown
Cresceus was Drought back to the
stand amid the greatest enthusiasm.
The management gave $1,000 for the
performance.
The other events went to the favor
ties adj along the line and the racing
was not up to Tuesdays mark. In the
2:10 trot, Charley Herr was sent back
TO 2nd place after crossing the wire
in the second heat, Kelley fouling Pill
ateus on the stretch. In the 2:09 pace
the crowd was impatient over a decis-

THE RIVER.

With the river at its present stage,
river travel is very unsatisfactory and
uncertain. The Telephone left at
noon yesterday for Marietta, and the
Goebel got away at for Darlington.
To-day the Cricket will come up
from Parkersburg, and on her arrival
here it will be decided whether she will
continue up or not. The Goebel will
leave at $3.50 on her regular trip. To-
morrow the Telephone will leave at
1870 for Marietta. The Goebel will
probably be able to get up to leave on
her regular trip.
The marks on the wharf at midnight
showed feet and falling.
The Joseph B. Williams has been let
into the river off the marine ways at
Cincinnati, and is about as good as
new
Many tow boats along the river are
resting on the bottom and rivermen are
estimating the cost of repairing leaks
when a rise comes.
There are fifteen cases of sickness N
the marine hospital at Pittsburg.
The improvements on lock No. G,
which were started last winter, and
left unfinished, will be taken up again
when lock No. 7 is finished.

SOMETHING ABOUT THE STORY

THE ORDEAL OFsFIRE" is
story of battle with strong love
interest running through it.
Ernest Vaughn is engaged to Ger
trude Lydeard, and he is anxious
for the wedding to take place at
once. The girl is in no hurry for
marriage. Thereupon Vaughan sus-
poets that she has formed an at
tachment with a young Greek
named Theodore, who is about to
leave London to fight In the Turco-
Greek war. He is greatly distress
cd with his suspicious, and ultf-
mately he breaks off the engage
ment. He is heart-broken and he
determines TO go abroad. He vol
unteers for service in the Greek
army, and on the way out he meets
his supposed rival, young Theo-
dore.
From this point the story becomes
very complicated. Vaughan and
Theodore have some thrilling adj
ventures. The most thrilling cpl
sodes of the war are graphically de-
scribed by the writer, and he works
up his story to most exciting
climax.
THE ORDEAL OF FIRE" will
be read with special interest at this
time when wars and rumors of wars
occupy so large a share of putlic at
tention.

locals were she only interesting features
81 the game. me visitors played list
lessly in the field, and at the bat Eddie
Poole had them completely at his
mercy
Wheeling began her run-getting in
the second inning scoring enough runs
to win the game. After Lytle had been
retired on foul fly, Ritter singled into
left field. He was caught mapping on
the initial sack The decision was ques-
tionable, but it carried through. Boyd
drew base on balls. Johnny Skopeck
singled, advancing Boyd to second.
Taylor's double scored Boyd, Scopeck
going to third. Congalton hit what
should have been a single into left.
Bay was playing close, and the drive
went through him, cutting across the
grass to the fence. Con stretched the
hit into home run, Sopeck and Taylor
leading him in. Lyons strike-out re-
tired the side.
In the fourth Boyd got life on
Wright's error. Skopeck hit to left. Tay-
lor's hit sent Boyd home, and Johnny
to third. John came home on Bates
first wild pitch.
In the fifth hit by Cockman, sacri-
fee by Poole and a double by Lyle,
added another.
In the seventh Cockman led off again
with a single to left Poole was saved
by Wright's error. Lytle went out AZ
first, but Cockman and Poole advanced
to third and second. Ritter doubled,
scoring both men. Boyd's single scored
Ritter, and then the side went out
Wheeling concluded her getting
in the eighth. Con. led off with dou-
ble Lyons singled, scoring Con. Cock
man tripled, and Denny came home.
Poole was an easy out. Lyle hit a
slow one to first, scoring Cockman, Ly-
tie going out on the play. Ritter's fly to
Bay retired the side.
The visitors did not succeed in get
ting a man across the safe side of the
plate until the eighth. Up until that
time, however, they made eight hits, but
Eddie kept them few and far between.
In their half of the eighth Wright led off
with a hit over second. Delehanty few
out to Skopeck. Middleton walked. DAN
iels hit to Taylor, who retired Wright
at third. Kellner hit to centre and
Middleton came home. Bates hit to
Cockman retired Daniels at second, and
the side. In the ninth hit by Gilbert,
a sacrifice by Bay, hit by Lynch and
a long fly into center by Wright scored
their second run.
Wheeling plays Marion again this af-
ternoon at the Island park. Guese, one
of the leading twirlers OF the league,
will probably go on the rubber for the
visitors. In case he does, Wheeling had
best look to her laurels. Turner and
Meaney were both out Of the game yes
terday on account of illness.

CINCINNATI. Sept. 5.-John Elsbree

Nesbit. The machinery will be taken
off and brought here. The wreck is al
most entirely out OF the water. and
they will experience little difficulty in
carrying out the task of removing the
machinery. The Nesbit was sunk last
winter by floating ice, and several at
tempts have been since made to raise
it, but owing to the fact that she sank
in an out-of-the-way place, the boats
that attempted to raise her experienced
great difficulty in getting near enough
to work.
