THE HIGHER EDUCATION.
Hiss Marie Richmond Found It Was
 Not a Bread Winner

Higher education as bread winner has one count againsl it in the personal experience Of Miss Marie Richmond, the Junoesque "Beauty Fairfax vino E pleasing the Tabor audiences with l2!' personal attractivenesS. and incl dentally, with a stunning importa ad gown which represents many months salary in the reckoning of the humble Workingman."
 Miss Richmond is one of the most aighly educated women on the Ameri- can stage. but when unexpected finan- cial trouble came sne found that the cultivation and mental development which she had attained through .le acquisition of book learning would not help her to earn d living for those te- pendent upon her.
 As graduate of Darlington collaSe and Swathmore. q finished musician and q clever artist, Miss Richmond thought that with her two years study in Berlin, where she pursued her must cal education and mastered the intri- racies of the Teutonic tongue, sne could command q good income through jne work of her intellect. Mothers however, did not care to place thair daughters under the instruction of a young girl; they preferred a native German to introduce their ofspring into the linguistic requirements of the aaisers domain. There was the choice between q life of drudgery and small rrcOnpense and the opportunity of 8 venture Miss Richmond chose the lat ter. Her beauty of face and figure proved to be of greater service in the struggle for existence in this great
 Wonan's country" than the superior ity of brain. A position was imn4Ii- ately obtained with Hoyt's "A Black Sheep" Later she joined the chorus tt Weber & Fields. and then cast her lot with iurtig & Semans forces.
 Five years ago she started out to try fortune at the shrine of Thespis.
 T started as a chorus girl" said Miss i;ichmond, but l intended to be some hing higher. l am very ambitious and mean to make my way into legitimate
 work. if determine ton has anything to do with the molding of our careers. When I received the offer from MT. | 2osenthal to play Beauty Fairfax. i was delighted, for it is my first real rart.''
 It is safe to say that it won't be ner last. however. for if Miss Richmond
 were utterly lacking in talent, which is far from the case, her ability to de ort herself in imported gowns would lcapture the aesthetic tastes of any manager.

The Countess Tolstoy, in her way, says Mainly About People, ''is almost as wonderful as her famous husband. whose severe illness is at present caus- ing such grave anxiety. Her indiyidu- llity and her theories are as marked and distinct as are his. Nor does she always agree with him in his views. Tn fact, she most strenuously opposed his tirade against the copyright system Neither is she blind adnnirer of the counts style and stories, but often freely and somewhat warmly attacks both, the result being rather heated argument. The countess is woman of broad training and ripe education Strong in her character and great i'll her ability. she is the type of woman who would best understand a man of her husbands kind. one who would be able to further the best in his and both their lives.

J. W. Bailey. is an interesting one.
 My father and Mir. Bailey were great friends" said Miss Richmond. "and when I was very young he took a great fancy to me. Il is to him that l owe my education. which I attained through the opportunity Of studying at American colleges and in Berlin
 Miss Richmond has the distinction Of being one of the few women who has travelled over nearly every point on the globe. Wherever the big Barnum t Bailey circus went, this young girl went also. Nor was this all. for wher- ever the prospects of finding freaks ii rected the personal attention of the great circus man. there too went the American girl. Africa is q country about which Miss Richmond can tell you q thing or two, and there is very little on the subject of zoology that she does not know. The years she spent under the care of Mir. and Mrs. Bailey Were full of valuable impress sions. and the Knowledge which she lpossesses of the customs and habits CT different nations, vas attained through 1 this medium of extensive IraTel.

Mr. Bailey. after her ! marriage. which. incidentally. turned out as he prophesied, decided to with draw his interest. An unsa tisfactory matrimonial alliance. followed by the death of her father, found her with the l necessity of supporting herself and mother staring her Tn the face. "Of course AIr. Bailey mas always 1 been our friend. said Miss Richmond, but I wanted to be independent. never dreamed but what my knowl- | edge of German, my art and music 1 would bring me in the required finan- 1 Ces. It was q great disappointment and was a severe blow to my conf 1 dence in the appreciated value of edu- cation which I had always looked upon as the great attainment of q woman s ! life.

GHETTO MIsREPREsENTATION.

The writers who have turned an honest penny" through their ignorance or islander of the ghetto (aEd these ot- lenders are both Jews and non-JeWs) care nothing about the real ideals, the real ambition. the real romance. and less even for the thrift and industry, prosperity and frugality of the SO called ghetto To write of these things is to write of the commonplace. And who is interested in the commonplace? TO tell the world at large that the ghetto Jew is in all essentials not un- like his Gentle neighbor: that he has the same civic domestic. and spiritual virtues and weaknesses: that he IS doing what every other human being is doing and has right to do-making a mighty effort to get the best out of iife-well. why should the ghetto eT- ploiter write of these things and set the mind of the world at large alright as to the Jew? That will not pay.-- A. H. Fomenson in Jewish Comment.

BICYCLE RACES AT vAlLssuRe.
rive Thousand Spectators Witnessed
 Some Very Exciting Sport.

Newark, N. J., August 24.-Five thou bicycle races at the Vailsburg track to- day The weather was perfect and the finishes close. The entry list was heavy, which caused crowding in some of the contests and many bad falls. One man was carried from the track unconscious.
 The five mile race for professionals was unique in that no similar event was ever held in this country. The contest was arranged for gruelllng battle and such 1t proved to be. There was prize of s5 each for the lap winners and prize of $50 for the leader of each mile. Thirty one started and the pace was so fierce that only sixteen were left at the end of three miles and only ten finished the five miles.
 Champion Kramer and Floyd McFar- land composed one team. Martin and Beauchamp another and the two Bedells a third Kegan and Butler also teamed, as did Kurlke and DePalma. Kramer captured the prizes of the first second, third and fifth miles, while Armbruster won at four miles. The time for the race was 10:45 1-5.
 The half mile consolation handicap for professionals was won by Butler after stirring finish with Sullivan and Stevens His time was 1:05 1-5.
 In the amateur half mile. Hurley seem- ed beaten, but he sprinted in the stretch and managed to beat out Ellington at the tape by about two inches in 1:16 1-5.

FOOD FOR THE FANS.

Gradually the true inwardness of the FrankzFisher combination is coming to light It is stated on good authority that Saturday Newt Fisher stated positively that neither Memphis or Nashville would be in the Southern league next season. He also stated that both towns would be found in the ranks of the American association. This throws light on an oth- erwise cloudy situation. If the statement is true, and there is no reason to doubt 1t, the reason for Charley Franks err ratio conduct can easily be explained. He was shrewd enough to understand that if he stepped quietly out of Memphis the Southern league would put a team in that city and he would De confronted with opposition fully as strong if not stronger than he now experiences. He therefore concluded the best thing to do would be to get rid of the Southern league, and went out strong with that object In view. There were others in the league who were just as good fighters as Charley Frank or Sam Carnes and Frank has very materially subsided. One thing can be relied on and that is If Frank does step down and out of the Southern league and joins the American associa- tion the Southern league will still be represented m MempnlS. The reason TOT Fishers conduct Judging from his own words is just as plain. Las, season he came very nearly being the whole thing in the Southern league This year others have had something to say regarding the conduct of affairs and Newt Is not at all pleased with that state of affairs.
 This is the way the Nashville papers figured out the result of the recent trip before the team left homei
 At Chattanooga. two victories and one defeat.
 At Atlanta, three victories and one de- feat.
 At Birmingham, four victories.
 Total claimed, nine victories and two defeats.
 This is the way the games actually re- suited.

The fans of Birmingham were grievous- ly disappointed that New Orleans lost yesterdays game to Shreveport as it gives Nashville another chance at the pennant. The Birmingham rooters felt that by taking the double header from the Fishermen the Pelieans would have a good chance to win, but Powelrs men couldn't do the trick yesterday and it looks as if the Coal Barons can't help her
 The New Orleans team come here to- day for a series of games and If the Barons appear in the form they showed against Nashville the Pelicans will be knocked down several more points in the percentage column. The New Orleans Rooter's club has offered an additional $500 to the 5000 offered by the owners of the franchise to the Pelican players if they will win the pennant. With the money looking them in the face they will do everything possible to beat Birming- ham. On the other hand the Barons have struck a winning streak and as they are anxious to pull up from the bottom hole there will be a royal battle at West End every day this week

 Government Disbursement.

London. August 24.-The supply of money continues to he limited, although the market was considerably assisted by government disbursement The principal adverse feature was the weakness of consols. The weakness of discount rates. in spite of the growing bank reserve, re- fleets the general expectation that gold will be shipped to the United States. Shares were dull and neglected during last week and the attendance at the stock exchange was small. In view of the indisposition to buy or sell, prices are holding we'll
 The present apathy Is partly due to the holidays, and is chiefly attributed to the uncertainty of the outlook.

 The election takes place Monday next,
 Judge William Richardson, the present congressman from this district, will be nominated for congress again without op- position. He has made one or the best if not the best congressman this dis triet has ever had and the fact that he will have no opposition speaks volumns for his popularity.

Pittsburs, s-4; Cincinnati, s.s.

Cincinnati, August 24.-The Cincinnatis and Pittsburgs broke even in the double header here today. The former lost the first game through their errors at criti- cal stages. The largest crowd eyer present at a ball game in Cincinnati was on the field, the attendance being nearly 25,000. The crowd surged upon the field and ground rules were in ef- feet. Phillips pitched good ball in the first up to the sixth inning when the errors rattled him. In the second game the Cincinnati team landed on Cushman for nine hits in the third inning and thiis combined with three bases on balls gave them a good majority. The game was called In the seventh on account of the Pittsburg team having to catch a train. Scores:

SIX PLAYERS REMAIN.
One by One the Tennis Experts Have
 FaIlen-Doherty Will Win.

Newport R. l., August 24.-One by one the four score tennis players who last Tuesday began the national championship singles have fallen before superior play CTS and only six now remain in the tour nament Tomorrow the fifth round in the tournament will be played and it is expected the winners will meet on Tues day or perhaps Wednesday to battle for the honor of challenging the present champion, W. A. Larned, for the na- tional championship
 The indications are that M D. whitman of Boston will be one of the players in the finals, and that one of the Doherty broth CTS will be the other, while one of the latter has not yet been decided. The feeling among the tennis experts here seems to be that the championship is in grave danger and that Whitman alone stands between 1t and the Dohertys. The English players have been playing strong CT and stronger and it seems almost inn possible to defeat them. Tomorrow the younger, H. l.. Doherty, will play l.. E. Ware of Boston and this match will be the feature of the days playing Ware has shown considerable ability this year and 1t is expected he will put up a strong fight against the Englishman, but very few believe he will win.

Manchester cloth Market.

Manchester, August 24.-The cloth mar lSet last week was dull and business was meagre. This condition is attributable, to a certain extent, to the approximate exhaustion of orders at current prices. and the absence of new orders on the same basis Considerable business is wait ing for easier terms than sellers are in position to accept. The late weakness of cotton has strengthened the position of buyers. There were a few transactions last week in bleaching cloths and vari- ous classes of greys to India. There was occasional trade with China at lower rates and rather more was done with South America.
