 Good Sport With the Young Horses
 Yesterday. I New York. Aug. 16.--Ideal weather prevailed at Brighton Beach to-day and although the crowd was small in com parison with that of yesterday, there was a fair attendance and the racing was high class. The best race of the afternoon was that of the three-year- olds. In the first heat at the end only one head separated the leaders, and the second heat was such a fast one that |sthree fell by the wayside, including the winner of the first heat. Each of the other heats was equally as interesting and the finish was so close that the | judges hesitated for a long time before deciding it in favor of Carrie Bel, The daughter of Lynne Bel got the finish | ing heat but only after hard struggle with RoWellan.
 Betting was decidedly lively in the 2:1S trot, and with eleven starters Iva Dee was strong favorite. Juno T, managed to secure the first heat and | in rattling finish in the second Mau- l rne was first under the wire, but for I breaks was placed second to Iva Dee. I The latter lost the third heat through | break at the start, and this and the i fourth went to Maurine. Iva Dee won | the next two heats and the race. | The great betting race was the 2:0S pace, and in the early pools Dan Patch brought $1.300 to the same amount on the rest of the field. Another of S1,000 against an equal amount and one of $900 on similar terms were recorded. There were seven starters and 1t was very evident that Dan Patch was not driven to win in the first heat as he finished well back in fourth position. It was quite different in the second, for he was sent from the start and negoti- ated the first quarter in 30k seconds, made the half in 1:01 and finished his mile in 2:04Ea, after which the race was postponed.

INDUSTRY OF A TINY BIRD.
Its Enormous Appetite Keeps the Little Wren Busy. During Itr
 Waking Hours.

One of the most industrious of birds is the wren. Its industry is probably due to it's appetite, which is seemingly unsuitable. It seems to be always hungry and is ever on the alert for means to satisfy the crav- ings of it's appetite.
 This is the season of the year when the city man returns from his two weeks outing in the woods, primed up with more accumulated knowl- edge than the good old sman with the hoe' has been able to acquire in lifetime. One of him, who has been spending the vacation time in Vir- ginia, furnishes details as to the abnormal cravings for food displayed by young wrens. He found nest and took up position where he could watch at his leisure. The moth CT wren made no trips to the nest within four hours and half, and this was the bill of fare which the three baby birds consumed:
 Twenty green caterpillars, 16 May flies, 29 unidentified insects, II worms, two bugs, ten grasshoppers, seven spiders and chrysalis or two.

ROSE COGHLAN.

A rarely attractive performance is slated for Wednesday evening at Polls when the famous Rose Coghlan ap- pears in her brilliant creation of the title role in Charles Reade's comedy. Peg Wellington Excellence of cast, richness of costumes and slight modi- fcation in the customary division of scenes combine to greatly enhance the value and interest of the presentation. Both the entertaining and serious qual- ities of the enduring comedy are brought out with telling effect. Miss Coghlan herself is in the height of her power as a comedienne. and her Wolf fngton lacks nothing either in high spirits or in the tender strokes of art which show Peg in the flesh as Reade described her with the pen. She is surrounded by an exceptionally good cast, so that the performance will be a most finished one. The sale of seats opens tomorrow morning. and after much effort the local management has persuaded Miss Coghlan's managers to play at the regular dollar scale. At this rate she ought to pack Polls to the doors.

REMAINS OF MONSTER BIRD.
Valuable Discovery Iade in Southern Part of Argentine Republic
 larger Than the Dodo.

Brief information of the discovery in Patagonia, or rather, of the south ern part of the Argentine Republic, of part of the remains of an. extinct bird that, in size, outrivals any of the forms known to science, either living or extinct, has just reached the chief ornithologist of the Smithsonian in- stitution, who regards the discovery as one of the first importance. The details thus far received are to the effect that scientific party explor- ing along the eastern foothills of the Andes range unearthed from the strata of the tertiary age the skull of what they at first took to be gigan- tic bird of prey, but on subsequent examination they unearthed other parts that caused them to change their first view and reach the conclu- sion that the bird must have been a water fowl The size of this extinct bird, which the discoverers named the s.phorarachis,' is, according to the reports, something amazing, it having been at least fourth larger than the ssdodo" of Madagascar, q bird now ex- tinct, but which until the finding of this Patagonian monster held first place for size in the list of birds liv- ing and extinct The government or nithologists are anxiously awaiting further details of this interesting dis oavoTr

 Charming in her personality. enjoying an enviable position in exclusive social circles and urged along by powerful influences. there nevertheless remained for her to make good'' to the public in searching glare of the lime lights focused on the center of the stage
 And nObly she triumphed. No such success has been recorded in recent years as was reached by Miss Barry more In Captain Jinks" last season. She appeared in MT Fitch's comedy 200 times at the Garrick theater. The play is essentially comic one. but there is very strong situation when the actress and the woman fight for dominance and of course the wornanly emotions prevail It is in her treat ment of this situation that her ability is most pronounced The daughter of the Drews and Barrymores can now be considered a full fiedged star. The production of sCaptain links" this season is exactly the same as at the Garrick and the New York produc- tion will be given complete this even ing at Polls. Prices are 25 cents to &7 Sn -

Modern Time system.

Compressed air under electrical control is the agent employed in a clock system just established in Paris. The whole area of the city is divided into sections about two miles in radius, and in the center of each section is a station, with a reservoir of compressed air, from which pipes lead to all the clocks of that section. At the central station is master clock controlling a commutator, by which electro-magnets are energized every minute, thus internationally connecting the air pipes with the reservoirs, the effect being that the hands of the clocks are driven for ward once minute.

Cannot Re Initiated.

A French writer, Henri Coupin, says that. notwithstanding the fact of their simplicity, the birds of song cannot be initiated with musical in struments because of the impos sibil- ity of reproducing their peculiar tim bre. The notes of birds, while core spending with our musical scale, also include vibrations occupying the inter vals between our notes. The dura- tion of birds songs is usually very short, three or four seconds for thrushes and chaffinches, four or five
 seconds for blackcaps, but from two 70 five minutes for the lark.-Nature.
