Wilmington Defeated

The Wilmington Military
Academy football team played
at Port Deposit on Saturday
and were defeated by the jacob
Tome Institute by the score
of 30 to ).
The local boys secured the
kickoff. and by means OF a
series of line plunges and end
runs tie ball was speedy taken
over Tones goal line. The
trial for goal failed.
Tome began to be alarmed,
as this was the first time they
had been scored on during the
season. They also began to use
their hands in an unnecessary
manner and to hold when they
had the ball in their possession
The cadets demonstrated with
the officials, at this sort OF
treatment, but the officials,
who were instructors Ct the
institute, refused to penalize
the offenders. In the second
half tie Academy ;ook the ball
away from Tome, and III a few
rushes carried it nearly the
whole length Of the field within
striking distance of their opro'
nents goal line, but the referee
took the bill from them and
fer time itappeared as ii the
game would end at this point
as the cadets we've entirely d is
hearteued by the decision.

BLIND TOMS MEMORY.
Remarkable Faculties DispIaysA by
the Famous C0lOrcd
Pianist,

Atlantic City continues to wonder
over Blind Toms wonderful mem-
ory. The fame of it has gone abroad
in the land, SO that not only at some
OF his concerts, where an opportunity
has been given, but in the informal
crowds that occasionally gather
around his chair there ia a manifest
tendency to test it pers onally
Naturally the only subject on which
the casual stranger can verify the ac-
curacy Of Toms memory is that
Of previous performances. So the
questions that are asked are all on
that subject, and Toms memory is
apparently infalible. He has never
yet failed to tell upon what date he
played at a given town: or, II he had
played there several times, he knew
IL; and he knew when. After a con-
cert career extending over nearly 40
years, one which has carried him over
all the continent, such a memory
seems almost superhuman.
When one considers further that
this is an absolutely uneducated man.
with an absolutely unframed mem-
ory without any great natural I'm
telligence, except in his unexplain-
able musical instinct, and that one
cannot call it heredity rising SUI
perior-to circumstances, but one cir
cumstance rising superior to hered-
ity, it becomes still more remark
able.
After one of his recent concerts,
says-the Philadelphia Inquirer, Tom
sat for some time as target for
questions. They came from all over
the house and Tom answered them
without hesitation, except for GER
tain hesitancy which evidently be-
longs TO his speech rather than to
his memory. He speaks two or three
words and q pause, two or three
more and another pause-rather au-
tomatically, and never is known to
fail to tack civil Sir" on to every
one Of his replies.
A man from Richmond, Va. asked
Tom when he had given concert
there. And Tom answered readily
enough: "Tn 1865, sir" But in his
next question the man made the mis-
take of saying: Now. Tom. I'm 60
ing to fool you! Where did you play"
explaining to nelghbors that he
probably thought he played at a
theater. whereas he had played In .
church. But Tom was silent as tho
grave until his manager said:
tom, you know where you played
at Richmond; tell the gentleman"
And Tom promptly answered: Il
played in the African NJ. II. church"
''He did. indeed" said the ques-
tioner, "and we were the only two
white people there, believe"
One OF Toms most exciting recent
experiences was his first encounter
in the North American reading room
with graphophone and large mu-
slcal box known as a regina The
latter particularly reduced him al.
most to a dslirium OF ecstasy. He
had his chair rolled up close to it, and
insisted upon hearing its entire roper
toirc, and astonished his manager and
his audience by giving some selsc'
tons from that repertoire in his nexs
concert. Blind Tom rattling on the
latest popular marches, Blind Tom
playing "Florodora" was novelty.
