THE SEASON AT NEWPORT.
Yachting Events Attracting n Great
Deal of Attention

NEWPORT, r. l.. June 9.-The season
at Newport is in full blast and next week

before at this time of the year. This
fact may be due to the races OF the New

templated meeting of the Constitution
and the Columbia, in order that some
idea might be gained as to the superiority,
if any, of the new boat over the champion
Of two years ago. The unfortunate acci-
dent to the Constitution has removed this
element of interest from the races. but
appears TO have had no effect upon the
arrival OF summer people
The entire spring has been devoted to
landscape gardening, and the surround
ings Of the handsome villas are more
striking than ever. This is especially true
of the lawns of Rosecliff, Mrs Hermann
Oelrichs' cottage on the Cliffs, which has
the most beautiful collection of shrubs
and foliage plants to be found in New
port. The sunken gardens of Wakehurst,

unsuccessful attempt to commit suicide at
an early hour yesterday morning by
drinking from a vial a quantity Of tine
ture Of arnica and spirits Of camphor
She had requested her mother earlier in
the evening to allow her TO go out to a
party, and upon her parents refusal to
do so became morose. She then went up-
stairs and nothing more was heard from
her until 10 o'clock Sunday morning, when
her mother after having called her for
some time and receiving no answer, went
to her room. There she found her daugh-
ter lying on the bed fully dressed and in
an unconscious condition. Word was at
once sent to the Eighth precinct station

INJURED IN A RUNAWAY.
Mr.. Marchand, of the Interstate
Commerce Commission, Hurt.


John T. Marchand, a prominent resident
of this city and a member of the Inter
state Commerce Commission, was serious
ly injured shortly after O'Clock last
evening near the corner of Fourteenth
Street and Florida Avenue by the fright
ening and running away Of his horse
Mr.. Marchand and his wife had been
out enjoying a drive and were about TO
turn the corner of Fourteenth Street and
Florida Apenue when they eollided with
two boys on bicycles. The col
lision frightened the horse so that he
made dash up Fourteenth Street throw
ing the occupants out and creating great
excitement among the many citizens who
were at that hour pTomenading up and
down the streets in that section Of the
city.

ans in charge, took the injured couple
TO their home, 2003 Fourteenth Street

Upon an examination being made by
Drs. Harding and Burton, it was discOy-
cred that Mr.. Marchand suffered from a
broken shoulder. besides being severely
bruised about the head and body. Al
though his injuries were of a very pain
ful nature and win cOnfine him to his

AN EDUCATED CANARY.
4 Bird in Chicago Said to whistle
Yankee Doodle.

CHICAGO, June S.-Twelve hundred dol
lars seems to be an extravagant sum to
pay for a canary, but Louis VI. Hedges,
of 50 Warren Avenue. does not think
so, as ne considers that a bird sufficiently
patriotic to whistle Yankee Dooule," con-
tinuously and without losing a note, is
worth even more. Mr. Hedges has just
purchased a two-year-old canary. known
as Mississippi Dick, from an old shoe
maker named O'Brien, In St Joseph, Mo
This bird has been astonishing his war
ren Avenue neighbors for the last two
days with it's rendition of the national
air.
II appears that O'Brien, while sitting
at his bench, varied his peg driving by
whistling Yankee Doodle" while the
canary sat perched in its cage directly
over his head. O'Briens surprise may
well be imagined about four months ago
when he heard the bird whistle discon-
nected parts Of the tune and eventually
render il as perfectly as O'Brien could
whistle il.
The canary, which Mr.. Hedges considers
a great find. viii probably be presented
10 one OF the city hospitals for the
amusement Of the inmates later on.

New York Gets Thirty Hits and Gin

CINCINNATI, June 9.-Over 1900 per-
sons saw the game with New York today
and so limited was the playing arena
that the players could do little fielding.
Two-base hits into the crowd were so
common that nearly every player got one
or more, the New Yorks touching up
three Cincinnati pitchers for thirty safe
hits, good for a total of forty bases.
Cincinnati took Phyle's measure handily
to the extent of eighteen safeties and
twenty-three bases in all. In the end the
crowd seemed to consider that it got its
moneys worth in totals of % to 13. In the
last half of the ninth inning the crowd
had worked its way so close to the dia-
mond that Emslie had to stop the play
ing while he tried to urge the crowd
back. His efforts were useless, and the
multitude soon swarrned over the whole
field, and the game ended with two Reds
out and two waiting on the bases. The

The score board erected in the centre

usually gives the results Of the other
games in the American League before the
finish of the local contests. This is due
TO the fact that in most Of the American

about an hour earlier than in this city.
Washington is the only city in the league
that has such a substantial following as

account of these patrons that the games
