LADY AND HER MASTERS.

Two cars were loaded with sheep, some of which began to bleat. Lady pricked up her ears and at once started for the train, the children following in amaze ment, for their pet had never acted in this way before. Lady led them down the track. The boys did not notice the express train that is due at 4:20. The engineer whistled and put on his brakes.
 Lady, with all her barking and ex- citement at the sight of the sheep, was the first to notice the express. She ran back across the track in front of the train. The boys took a short cut to head her off. The train caught the tail end of the cart and tumbled Lady and the fragment of the broken wag- oninto the ditch. The boys were off the track and the express whisked by, harming neither of them nor their play mate, but Mrs. Hess has her doubts about letting her little ones out of her sight in sole charge of even so faithful 3 friend as Lady generally proves her. self to be.

< CAT THAT SHED TEARS.
She Had Passed Through Terrl- flying Experience and Had Reas
 son for Feeling sad.

sDo animals ever shed tears ?'' is q question frequently asked, but never satisfactorily answered. Henry Har- land tells of COW that wept freely when separated from her calf. In one of the large buildings of the city the other day many people were witnesses of weeping kitten. The wee mite had st-ayed into the building and there had encountered fierce, bark ing dog of the fox terrier variety, She had run to escape him into a TOOL in which was the roar of much machin- cry, had been shouted at, had had a piece of coal thrown at her, had been caught by the nape of her neck and flung to a giant, had been taken up in anleievator and had had the tip of her tail pinched by some laughing men.
 When She finally reached her des- tination, a quiet spot at the top of the tall building, she was palpitating mass of fur more dead than alive, with no fight left in her and with tears streaming from her eyes. Indeed, . more lachrymose sight was never , seen.
 It took a good IS minutes of betting and cajolery to induce her to stop cry ing, too, and to lift her head. But
 finally, like the COW in the story, she became consoled. Then she washed her face and forgot her troubles in frivolous pursuit of piece of paper tied to a string. Chicago Chronicle.

WITH THE WRESTLERS.

Prof M. J. Dwyer of Grand Rapids, Mich, who not long ago defeated Leo Pardello in Scranton, and Dennis Gal lagher in Newark, will meet Harvey Parker at catch-as-catch-can style, best two out of three falls,. in Newark next Tuesday night.
 Carl Schmidt was one of two local wrestlers who met Harvey Parker of Brockton at Bowery theater last night. Schmidt persisted in getting off the mat, but Parker threw him with a half Nelson and hammer lock in four minutes. Jack Halpin of Harlem was the second man to tackle the Broekton wrestler. Parker had his rival down on both shoulders in forty-fve sec onds.
 Nouroulah, the Terrible Turk, made his initial appearance at Buffalo on Tuesday night and threw three Amer ican wrest1ers with comparative ease. Nouroulah's opponents were Dennis Gallagher of Buffalo, Edward Ather- ton of New York and Otto Felton, a young farmer from Syracuse. The three men received two chances, as Nouroulah agreed to throw them each twice in an hour. Gallagher was first on. He was downed in 8 minutes and 40 seconds the first time and 6 min utes and. 90 seconds the next. Ather ton $ showing was aisapp pointing. Nour- Oulah put him on his back in min utes and minutes respectively. Eel ton tried to make a running match of it. The Turk, however, gained the first fall in 6 minutes and the second in three minutes.

Young Horan will do the twirling for Waterbury to-day, and the lad has some good ability. He will do his best to be selected as the third of the trio of twirlers that Manager Connor has been looking for. Let us hope that he will be successful.
 Before the game started yesterday Manager Connor said to Waller: T want to have you put the balls over the plate and let them hit if they can, and we will try and take care of them in the field" Walters reply was, 'I will not give one man his base on balls" and he proved himself correct.
 There are two more places on the team that need to be strengthened, and unless the players who are now filling those positions get hustle on they will be driven to the brush with the rest. There is good base ball ma- terial in the players in question, but they seem to lack the ability to bring 1t out.
 Norwich drops in here tomorrow with Piggy Ward, Jack Tighe, Garry Wilson and the rest< of that crowd of kickers. Clancy will be in the box, and that means corking good battle. We would not be a bit surprised to take the game very easily, but those who attend can rest assured that Wa terbury will try to win from the for mer champions.
 Doyle, who was released by Man. ager Connor, wanted his expenses and car fare, although coming here on his own proposition. He was told that he could get neither and wanted to be sassy" but thought better of it. Doyle agreed to come here on trial at his own expense. He was not allowed to pitch in game, but was tried out the morn ing after his arrival He proved use less and was told so, and that ended it.
 Manager Kairns> of the High school base ball team received, to-day, chal- leage from the Waterbury High school team to play game of ball. The man ager of the Waterburys said that his team had defeated Naugatuck and see ing that Shelton had also done the same he was anxious to get game on between the two. 1t is probable that after the Interscholastic league season ends the Brass city lads will be ac- mmodated=AnSonia Sentinel

WISDOM OF ANIMALS.
Monkey Is Considered the Most In- telIigent and Sheep and Buffalo
 the Most Stupid.

s -- M
 The monkey is the most intelligent animal. Poodle dogs come next; then in order the Indian elephant, bear, lion, tiger, cat and otter. Ants, bees and spiders are more intelligent than horses and goats, and the wild rab- bit has considerably more brain power than the camel Tame rabbits come almost last in the list, and have less than the frog. The low est form in the a1fimal school is occu- pied by the nautilus, octopus, python, tame pigeon, deer, sheep, buffalo and bison.
 \ The spider, for instance, will con- struct it's web in almost any position, and if it cannot find any natural object to which it can attach the supports it will construct little weights of mud, and place them at the lower parts of the web to keep it in position.
 Bees will construct their honey combs in any place regularly or ir- regularly shaped, and when they come to any corners and angles they seem to stop and consider. Then they will vary the shape of the cells, so that the space is exactly filled. It could not be done more satisfactorily if the whole thing had been worked out on paper beforehand. Ants will construct hard and smooth roads, and will drive tun- nels compared to which mans efforts in the same line are insignificant.

NE MIN ANOTHER.
Bristol is Defeated in a Fast
 and Clever Game.

Waller, the New Twirler, Proves
 Himself a Good One-He Strikes
 Out Six of the Bristols and Gives
 No Bases on Balls-Bristol Scored in
 One Inning by a Fluke-Results of
 Games in This and Other Leagues.
 Frank Waller, the new twirler for The Waterbury team had his first ex- perfence yesterday in the box in the State league and he made so good that even the Bristol fans were forced to give him credit. He had great com mand of the ball and he had the heavy hitting Bristol players guessing what curves were coming their way. Six of the Bristol leather pounders were sent to the bench after flaming the air. Waller had great command of the ball and not one man walked free to first. He felded his position out of sight and when 1t was necessary for him to hit the ball he placed one in the right gar den that counted for his team. He proved himself the best man so far se- cured and should make it interesting for all the teams that face him. He received the best kind of support, too, and not an error was made by the Wa terbury players. The hit that brought in BrostoPs only run was made by Owens and on any other grounds but the Bristol play yard.would have been captured by Weisbecker. It was made when the men were out also and with two men on bases. It was good game to win and well deserved victory. The score and summary:
 Waterbury.

GREAT SHOOTING RECORD.

Springfield, III, May 23.--W. R. Crosby of O'Fallon, III, yesterday won the championship shooting trophy and a purse of $1 ,000 oil the grounds of the Illinois Gun club and established a re- cord that is believed to be without pre- cedent. Crosby killed 109 birds straight, The match, which was commenced Tuesday showed three men tied We'd nesday night with 100 birds each. Gil- bert missed his 1OSth bird yesterday, while H. J. Sconce failed to get his 1O3rd. When Crosby killed his 1O9th he was declared the winner.

Nine Hours n Dny's Work.

Maggie, mare belonging to Aaron Yocum, merchant of Reading, Pa, would make a good member for a labor union. Maggie is not remark able animal in any way--with one ex- ception, she positively refuses to work more than nine hours a day. Maggie is now 33 years of age, and is only worked occasionally, but even in her old she remembers the principle which governed her in early youth, and hangs on to the nine-hour sched- ule. When she is hitched up in the morning at seven o'clock she will work hard all morning. When noon comes, however, Maggie insists upon going to the, stable. At one o'clock she is ready for the afternoons work, but at five o'clock positively refuses to go anywhere but to the stable.

cocoANUT HANDcUFFs.
Singular Methods Employed by south American Indians in Capturing
 Monkeys.

The Indian of South America em- ploys this peculiar method of captur- ing monkeys: x
 Taking a cocoanut he cuts hole in each end just large enough to enable a monkey to insertits paws; puts some lump sugar inside, then places it in 2 promising spot and awaits the capture of his game.

Norwich here tomorrow.

Norwich here tomorrow.
 That was our claim from the first. All We needed was a few good twirl- CTS.
 Waller is a peach, according to all accounts of that game yesterday. He made the 'swoodchoppers' look like a dead cock in the pit.
 If the Waterburys would keep up their good work to-day at Bristol the New Haven would stand in first place to-night-New Haven Register. Wise prophet thou art.
 That was support of the right kind given to Pitcher Waller yesterday, and every man seemed to be in the game for keeps. Old Peter at second was onto his job from the first to the last and let none get by him.
 Roger Connor ought to have slept well last night. He managed to beat Derby yesterday.-New London Day. H eis not sleeping day or night now He is hustling to get out of very un- desirable position in the State league standing.
 Jerry Denny has signed new short stop. His name is Hafford, and he comes from Tufts college. This prob ably means the retirement of First Baseman Sprague, and Bob Drew to take the position, with Denny at sec ond.-New Haven Register. What a mistake was there in that change.

WITH THE WHEELMEN.

The racing team of the American Bi- cycle company is almost complete, the only additions being the signing of a number of foreigners who are expect ed here within a few weeks. The big aggregation of speed merchants, except the pace followers, numbering eighteen in all, will follow the entire circuit of the National Cycling association. The riders signed to date include the follow ing: Jimmie Michael, John Nelson, Al Newhouse, Robbie Walthour, John T. Fisher, George Leander, Tom Cooper, Hardy Downing, Edward Taylore, Ho- ward B. Freeman, George Collett, J. F. Jacobson, Floyd McF Farland, O. s. Kim ble and Lester Wilson.
 Concerning the defeat of 'Major'' Taylor by Jacquelin and subsequently, by the Italian riders, an interesting dis cussion was held yesterday between some of the racing sharps of the city. An outsider began it by asking why Taylor could not have won if he had made 1t a "ding-dong" race with Jac- quelin and beaten him fairly in a hard ride because of superior staying pow CTS. He was answered by q profession al rather scornful1y, g"NVhy, you should know that if the Major, tried to make a sprint of it from start to finish, he would have been simply pacemaker for Jacquelin and would have been beaten worse than he was. The French man would have taken his pace all the way and beaten him out at the end af- ter Taylor was all out. That sort of tac- tics would do for first-rater to use in a ride with a second-rater, but not between such couple as Taylor and Jacquelin." Another man, and prac- tical one, here broke in, saying: q don't know but what Blank is correct. after all, because Taylor can last lon ger than the Frenchman, I think, and could afford to give him pace and yet be able to beat him through sheer vii tality and condition.v The first speaker asked if Jacquelin was a good stayer behind pace and the others agreed that he was. He then hauled in his horns as far as the French cham pion was concerned, but insisted that with others Taylor should force first race for the entire distance. The racing men agreed with him, but they were in minority, and the majority was composed of men who had seen races in Europe. They made the interesting declaration that European rider can force his style of race on an American successfully, but that rider who at tempts to force the American style on European has no chance Co win. The importance of pacemaking could not be more strongly emphasized The man who makes the pace must almost certainly lose. The only way out of the dilemma for Americans is to make the race a fast one by having single pacemaker. Taylor's manager has asked that this be done when he meets Jacquelin for a second time on next Monday but it is uncertain as yet whether it will be agreed to.

GOVERNED BY INSTINCT.
When Collie Heard Sheep She Forgot Her Training mud A1inost
 Caused Tragedy.

Even such intelligent animals as collie dogs will forget domestic train ing when instinct gets the upper hand. Monroe Hess, of 300 IndianQ Queen lane, Philadelphia, owns a handsome collie named Lady, who is the constant and watchful playmate of his two little boys. The children have wagon and harness for Lady and spend hours daily carting dirt from one place to am other. Last week they were busily en- gagged in this way when a cattle train slowly passed on the Reading road.

 Much interest is being taken regard ing the result of Terry McGovern's s contest with Aurelia Herrera, the Mexican lightweight, whom he is matched to meet in twenty round bout at San Francisco next week. Herrera is not novice. He has been fighting many years and is con- fident that he will whip McGovern. Despite his assertions Terry Is the fla VOflI6 III the UellluS dC D lO ].
 "Stilf' White, who has quite fol lowing among the sports of Brooklyn, and who declares that he is the man .swho once had his face punched in,'' writes that he has unearthed a new pugilist who, may make his mark in the ring. Whites protege is a 135- pounder who enjoys the sobriquet of "Bronz Patton" White is ready to match his man against all corners.
 Abe Willis of Australia, who was defeated by George Dixon for the ban tam championship of the world at San Francisco in 1881, says that he will visit America again in few months. Willis, who is now a lightweight, de- clares that he is in fine condition and will be ready to meet anybody ill his class.
 The twenty bout between Tommy Feltz of Brooklyn and Austin Rice, which was scheduled to be de- cided at the National A. C., New Lon don, last night, has been postponed until Decoration day. Feltz has noti- fled the club that he is not in the best of shape and Rice consented to the change of date.
