THE LARGEST BRIcKFIELD.
British Center Makes EnOuSh Bricks EV0ry Year to Gfrdle the
 Earth Four Times.

z Peterborough, England. makes enough bricks in the course of a year to put girdle four times around the earth, says t44e Philadelphia Public Ledger. It is estimated that the busy brickmaking yards, which have grown up in great number round the ancient city in the last 20 years, turn out S00.- 100000 bricks annually. As the length of brick is about eight inches, then, if Peterborough's annual output were laid out in single line, it would stretch over 100000 miles.
 The brick industry has revolution ized the trade of Peterborough. Such is the wealth of clay and the profit to be drawn from it. that one part of the brickmaking district has been fitIy named .Klondike.'' It lies in beds of enormous area and depth. and some of the experts say they could go on taking out the easily accessible clay for the next century without talk ing thought as to where the next sup. ply of the material is to come from.

HOT-WATER FISH.
Curious Species Found in the BOiIins z Lake of Amatitlan in Guatemala i Other Instances.

M. Marcellin Pellet, French writer, who has recently returned from Guate- Imala, describes curious species of fish, the Pacilia dorri, which he found in the boiling lake of Amatitlan. It pass jes it's days literally t.in continual hot water" So hot is the water of this lake that it is said to thrust one's hand in it means scalded fingers. Ebuliition is. however, somewhat tempered, says the New York Herald, as the really boiling
 water rises to the surface, leaving a Temperature of S5 degrees ceutigrade at the level, where the fish are found, which is even then sufficiently warm for cold blooded creatures like fish.
 ] Frank Buckland states in one Of his
 works that the naturalist Brossonnet found by experiments that some fresh water fish would live several days in water so hot that 8 human being could
 not keep his hand in it for minute. q Dr. Saussure, the Swiss scientist, dis covered living cells in the hot springs ot Ak. the temperature of which averages 113 degrees Fahrenheit. Humboldt also
 saw living fish thrown up in 8 volcano in South America .'

PLAYED WITH SCRUB TEAM.

Philadelphia, Oct 9.-The scrub team yesterday afternoon furnished better practice for the varsity team than did Haverford. Had the men been called upon for anything beyond the ordinary they would perhaps put more life into their work, but Williams on account of the weather conditions only allowed ordinary work. He seems to be willing to give the men ample time to thoroughly condition them selves, thus getting them in shape for the big games by degrees. The one feature of the playing against Haver= ford that pleased the coaches more than another was the rapidity with which the plays were sent off. The team gave an inkling of what may be expected later, and with the speed dis played yesterday and the weight to back it Pennsylvania will be hard team for any college to beat this year
 The playing of Smith was the talk or the campus yesterday. He certainly did put up a star game, and if he can continue it Brooks will never be heard of again as Penn's star fullback.

 Tickets for S2.56O.

Lexington, Ky, Oct 9.-Fifty-eight tickets good for admission at the gate on Saturday, the, afternoon set apart as memorial day for the widow and children of the late Secretary W. E.. Shanklin, were sold last night previous to the pool-selling on the Great Tran sylvania. They brought a total of $2- 56O. The first ticket sold went to the local Elks lodge, of which shanklin was a member, for $1,OOO.
 The Lexington Driving club and T. c. Mcdowell, owner of Alan-a-Dale. each paid $1O for ticket. The absence of money from trotting horsemen was owing to $1,200 having been raised by subscriptions yesterday. The principal contributors to that fund were B. B. Smathers, S250 and L. V.

Each contestant must wear silk hat and either Prince Albert or an evening coat to participate in the golf tourney for the Billy King cup at the Glen Echo club in few days, says a St. Louis dispatch. It is said that sew eral members asked permission to play in opera hats, as they would, be less likely to suffer in a round of the links, but MT. King and Colonel McGrew refused to listen to the suggestion. The club members think it likely that a majority of the players will wear Prince Alberts, as the tournament can suits are worn. However. this point has not yet been finally agreed upon by the respective contestants.

New Weather Observatory.

Professor Willis l.. Moore, chief of the weather bureau, returned to New York recently on the Deutschland from the meeting of the international com mittee of directors of government weather services and the directors of private observatories held at South port, England. Secretary Wilson q year ago authorized me" saidE Professor Moore, ito purchase ground and build and install complete meteorological and scientific observatory. We have purchased sixty miles square of land west of Washington in the Blue Ridge mountains, 1900 feet above sea level. Buildings are in course of erection. In this observatory we propose to study the higher problems of meteorology, the various forms of solar energy, in their relation to terrestrial weather. One of my objects in going to Europe was to buy some special apparatus that would be useful to us in carrying on this research work"

An. Aut,,snna1 Memory.

 When the autumn skies are graying ana the earth Is turning brown And the leaves in golden showers from the trees are falling down, Memory on its silent pinions wings away toward the days When the sun of youth was shedding on our head its golden rays. We can see the shocks of fodder standing just as when we left, See,the chipmunks holding acorns in their claws so sharp and delft, Hear the hick'ry nuts come falling From the grand old sherlbark trees When their limbs were softly shaken by the fingers of the breeze. wercan hear the turkeys gobbling an che barnyard cross the lane. Hear the humming of the thrashers pounding out the golden grain, See the yellow old COW pumpkins lying thick upon the ground, With the stubble of the cornstalks sharp ly hedging them around, But the very sweetest music that came to our boyish ears Music that has chung unto us through tae intervening years, Was the music that was started by tho. antics of the breeze Hick'ry nuts a-rattling downward iron, the shaggy shellbark trees How us wild shock headed youngsters. hardy products of the farms Hastened to the nearby woodland, pillow slips hung on our arms, I.ading echoes with our laughter. answer ing the bobwhite's call, When the frost was on the fences and the nuts began to fall! Busy were our little fingers as we filled the muslin, slips, Rude at times the exclamations that would ripple from our lips As we'd guy the bold intruders, saucys
 well dressed boys from town Out among the shellbark hick'r1es when the nuts were falling down. Looking back OCT life so riddled with it's pleasures and its pains, With it's seasons glad with sunshine and its days of chilling rains. Like an ever sparkling jewel in the. n1em'ry crown ablaze Comes the joyous recollection Of those careless boyhod days; Comes a picture Of the farmhouse, of the
 crooked old rail fence, Of the saucy squirrels barking in the
 wood so deep and. dense, Of the leaves so softly rustling awhen dis- turbed by passing breeze, And the hickry nuts a-falling from the grand old shellbark trees. James Barton Adams in Denver Post.

Coffin also changed places. going from right to left half back. The work was a decided i'm provement over what has been seen for the past week. It may be that the presence of the president of the college had an inspiring efgsct. but, be that as it may. the men played with a spirit and dash very commendable. This. too, in spite of the weather con- ditions, which were simply abomina- ble.

Second Regiment Secures Permanent Possession ef Trephy.
 The annual state brigade rifle shoot was held at Westville yesterday under conditions far from favorable. The day was cloudy and the wind inter- fered with the shooting.

The Second regiment won the first prize, the second prize went to the Third regiment and the First regiment finished third.

ON THE GRIDIRoN
Yale Coaches Feel Encouraged as the
 Practice Proceeds.

New Haven, Oct 9.-Yale coaches feel more encouraged to-day than they have at any time this season. The work of the second team against Wes- leyan shows that the substitutes are not such weak lot as has been sup posed. The visitors were only able to, make a gain of three yards against it, and some of the men surprised the vets by the way in which they got into the plays. From now out no more will be heard from New Haven about the lack of substitute material. While not what might be termed footb all weather. it being too warm and damp, the men were sent along yesterday as if they had not played a game the day before. And considered from the standpoint of good practice, it was of less value than the scrimmages yester- day afternoon. The scrub made de- termined stand against their more weighty opponents and the first eleven had to work hard for all the gains it made The defense of the varsity was the stumbling block for the scrub. It was simply impregnable.

Pittsb11rg, Oct 9-Previous to the game here yesterday. Manager Collins asked Barney Dreyfus if he would agree to a special train to take the teams back to Boston. His reply was characteristic: You won't need it," be said, 'our team will take the next two, and that will be about all of it." Collins then dared him to send in Phil lippi, but Manager Clarke interfered, and Leever had his wish that he be permitted to pitch a game against the Americans. He is sorry now. Not that his work was not good enough, but that the men back of him had one of their of days, and thereby Boston was able to take another, making the series stand three all.
