Four Heats at brighton.
Aside from the record breaking perfor-
nance Of Dan Patch at the Brighton Beach
Grand Circuit races yesterday. described
elsewhere, there was little in the days sport
| to entertain the spectators. Two three-in-
Eve races were prolonged until the sun went
down, and many In the crowd expressed
q wish that It might be the last Of the old
system brought out to entertain Grand
Circuit assemblage.
In the Kentucky Stock Farm purse Of
eS. 600. for three-year-old trotters, Dr.
J. c. McCoy's good FLY Ethel's Pride won
after a contest Of four heats. Mary Gage,
the fleet daughter OF Orc Wilkes, won the
| first heat and second money. She was
! second in each succeeding heat in faster
time, but the daughter OF Directum had

The Metropolitan Stake of 81, 900, for 2:2O

| there was n feeling Of relief when II was
over Dick Wilson, the favorte, was un-
! steady and lost three heats from this cause.
He won every heat in which he did not
make break.
HE Boy was made the favorite in the 2:ls
class trot and lot of money went into the
booksellers strong box for him to win.
Why any man would back such a bad actor
IL one Of the mysteries Of the betting ring.
In the first heat he made a break in the
homestretch. and before he stopped jump
ing and swerving he had hit competitor
and knocked the wheels from under his
sulky. The judges allowed him to start
again and put UP Ben Walker to drive,
but he Jared no better and this time the
horse was sent to the stable. Dillon Boy
won the race.
The card for to-day is from a racing
standpoint the strongest Of the week.

days of record trips and short cuts most of the passengers prefer that he should.
 But the sociability of translantic voyages has gone with the old ships. Few travellers wait nowadays for any particular vessel, and especially for a particular captain. Most of them take the first ship sailing to suit their con- venience, and care as little for the cap- tain of her as they do for the cook. The new way is a saving for ship owners, in enc way. It used to be the custom to make the last dinner of the voyage the captains personal dim ner. The company supplied the wine for it free Of charge. The captains table was full that night, and cam pagne passed freely. It was one way the old shippers had of repaying so- cial courtesies extended to them on shore. I don't know that this custom was ever exactly abolished. It simply died out, like a great many others, with the advent of greyhound steam CTS, suite cabins, heavy passenger lists and a disinclination on the part of the rich men and women to get into more mixed society aboard ship than they do ashore.

In running she was swift of foot as Atlanta. and skating came as natural to her as waking Never" writes an enthusiast admir- CT SS her. the mother of the then rector of Sandringham. did our dear princess look more graceful or fairylike than when skimming over the ice on her skates.

Driving was at one time favorite amusement of hers, and people living around Sandringham used to watch for the pretty pair of grays she fooled along so deftly. On one of her birthdays a little carriage, with four ponies was given. her by the emperor of Russia. and she drove these either four abreast or in the usual four-ia- hand style.

 The question on one occasion was: If you had a daughter in good trade. able to support herself, would you wish her to marry" The remarks made were of deep interest from the light they shed on the speakers inmost feelings.

Verde mine was opened last week and the level explored, and found entirely free from fire. As to fire the mine is said to be in better condition than for years. With the fire under control, an abundance of coal and coke. and the increased capacity of the shelter. the company's pay roll should soon be much larger than ever before in its history.
 Never before in the history of Jerome has 1t been so dull in a mining way, especially so as to the development of prospects. The Cleopatra and Eureka are the only properties on which de- velopment work Is now being carried on Tn this district, but things will be different after January first, when q number of companies owning proper ties in the district will again take up the chase after ore. The News is in- formed that the Decatur. Apex, Black Hills and Mingus companies will start up shortly after the first.

JEROME AND VICINITY.
Mining News From the Big Ones in
 Black Hills District.

The Jerome News of this week has the following items concerning mines there and thereabout:
 At the Iron King everything is ready for a blow in just as soon as the pres ent coke famine can be overcome.
 If the present deal for the Copper Chief goes through, and if there is truth in reports it is almost a certain ty it will be closed, Jerome will expert ence some of her old-time prosperity.
 During the past week an expert ex- amined the Joe Larsen properties In Mescal gulch, and agreed with all for mer mining men who have been on this group, that it Is one of the best prospects in the district.
 The grading being done at the Uni ted Verde works, south of the smelter Is to make room for a large building to be used In conjunction with the large pipe in saving the precious dust from the furnaces. Two pipes will be run from the stack to the building, one to carry the smoke and dust in. the other to allow the smoke to escape,
 The Iron King working with force of between 250 and 300 men, the United Verde employing more men than ever before, and the Copper Chief with a force of from 100 tG 150 men. That looks good to the Jeromite who has past though the past two years of local business depression.
 Sunday there were eleven cars of coke at Jerome Junction for the Uni ted Verde Copper company. This coke comes from Pennsylvania. At the smelter Superintendent Taylor has ev- erything ready to start up just as soon as he receives instructions to do so. The smelter will undoubtedly be again in full operation within the next seven days, with enough coke ahead to guard against a compulsory shutdown for many months.

But this explanation involves enor- nous improbabilities, while it is un- likely again that the conjuror manag- ed to insert a duplicate ring into the dispatch beforehand Lord Lytton then asked the juggler if he could re- peat the trick. He replied in the af- firmative and q woman lent another ring. Another officer took it. and with the seeds as before, dropped the ring into the well. The countenance of the iuggler altered tn the pause which fol- lowed. Something, he said, has gone wrong, and he seemed agitated. Turn ing to the second officer he said. Did you arrange the seeds as I bade you?" No" said the office, thought that was all nonsense. and> I threw them away" The juggler seemed mortified. Do you think l do this by myself?" he said. and packing up. he departed.
 The we'll was carefully dragged and at last the ring was brought to the surface. That ring at least had been in the water. But had the first ring been as faithfully consigned to the depths?

SHIPPERS ONCE LloNIzEo
But Times Have Changed on Ocean
 Steamships.

Sea captains on Atlantic liners not not get social ivitations ashore as they did in the old days" said one of those who has been ferrying between Liver pool and New York for eighteen years, while entertaining two friends in his own cabin. When I first went on the bridge it was the custom Of the com mander of the big steamship to make the personal acquaintance of nearly all his cabin rassengers, to be at table every meal, with the most distinguish ed of them around him and to accept invitations to visit them at their homes when ashore.
 A captain on a popular liner like the old Alaska or the City Of Rome, in their day, would find ten or a dozen in- vitations awaiting him every time he came to port He could choose his sc'- ciety, and it was of the best. Persons who knew him would wait a week or two, if necessary, fer his steamer. They did not feel at home on any other ship or with any other captain. The cap tain was put up at the clubs. He knew everybody. It was his duty to see that proper precedence was given to per sons of distinction in assigning them to places at the table. Tn coming from England he was likely to get in serious trouble with his owners if he did not do this.
 Nowadays all such matters are left tC' the purser and head steward. The captain has nothing to do with them. Sometimes he neves sees his passengers from the beginning to the end of the voyage. He need not Go 30 unless he wishes to. If he makes the round of the promenade deck once day and speaks affably to women who are well enough to be on deck in their steamer chairs, it is about as much as is ex- pected of him. He seldom goes near the smoking room. In rough weather
 he sticks closely to the bridge, has his meals served in his cabin, and is never seen in the dining saloon. In these

STORY OF INDIAN MAGIC
Tricks That Defy Detection and Mysti-
 fy All Who Behold Them.

The following story of Indian magic was told me by the person to whom 1t was told by the late Lord Lytton. l give it in my own words for the ex- cellent though humiliating reason that l have mislaid the manuscript. When in India Lord Lytton often sought out conJurers but never saw any but the usual feats. such as the mango tree trick and basket trick. The method in each case is known. or at all events plausible explanations have been given by MT. Maskelyne and other experts. On one occasion Lord Lytton liked something in the looks of the coniuror who was performing in an open space before his house. After the ordinary exhibition. his lordship asked tn. magician if he could not do something more out of the common way The man said he would try and asked for d ring, which Lord Lytton gave him. he then requested an officer to take in eith- CT hand hanful of seeds: :one sort was sesame. the name of the other sort my informant did not know. Holding these seeds and having the ring be- tween his finger and thumb. the officer was to go to a well in a corner of the compound. He was to dispose of the seeuS III d Ceftdlh way, tnlnk on the low wall around the we'll into the depths of which he was to throw the ring. All this was done and then the magician asked Lord Lytton where he would like the ring to reappear. H. answered lin his dispatch box" nf which the key was attached to his watch chain. or at all events he had i, with him on the spot. The dispatch box was brought out. LoTy Lytton opened. and there was the ring.
 This trick would be easy if the Bri.- ish officer was q confederate of the
