them in shane for the next races.
The Breeders Association offers 54991

SAID SHE WAS A WRITER.
indiana Merchants Wife Has Been
Posing as Novelist to Her Friends.

Indianapolis, July 19.-For several
years Mrs. William Brown, wife of a
shoe merchant of Kokomo, has been
known among her friends as the au-
thor of the Grace Richmond'' stories
that have appeared in Eastern period
icals. Receptions have been given in
her honor and she has accepted and
appropriated the praise given the work
of the authoress and even discussed
her methods of work.
Recently Mr.. and Mrs. E. H. Potter
of F'redonia, n. Y, moved to Kokomo
and were very much surprised to learn
that Mrs. Brown was the author of the
stories in question. Mr.. Potter said
that he knew Grace Richmond as the
daughter of Baptist minister at
Fredonia. Friends investigated and
Mr.. Brown was also notified of the dis
covery, and said that he had always
believed that his wife wrote the sto-
ries. When confronted with the facts
Mrs. Brown admitted their correctness
and said that her conscience had
troubled her and she was glad the
truth had come out.

she earned and all that Mr.. Ross earned
she took and expended very prudently.
Economy was her virtue 1t eventually
proved to be good one for her hus-
band, for when she died she left him "a
property sufficient to comfortably care
for him for the remainder of his life.
George w. Cobb of Auburn, executor
OF her will, said this morning that quite

A Pretty Contest in siqht.

Il rather looks as il there would be
a lively contest when the value of the
plant of the Maine Water Co. in this
city and Fairfield comes up for discus
sion before toe appraisers for the Ken
nebec water District. Those who have
been appointed arc d. A. Powers, Houl-
ton, F. II. Appleton Bangor and p. NJ.
Blake. a well-knoWn engineer OF New
tonville. Mass. and their first meeting
is scheduled for oct. 6. Both sides
have been hard at work collecting Gata
all summer. Both have had experte
at work for many weeks and the Maine
Water Co. has had engineers employed
here for some time.
The typhoid fever situation of last
winter has been pretty thoroughly in
vestigated by both sides, this city and
Fairfield having been canvassed and
| histories of all cases in detail secured
so far as possible. The Kennebec Water
! District has had several possible
sources of supply examined and many
samples of water examined.
| The whole case has been fought ir
every possible point from the very start
and the final step promises to be b3
no means the least interesting.

Best of Season and Only Shutout tor
Several Years.

TO saw that the ball game which was
PLAYED in this city on uimby field Satur-
day afternoon. was good one, IS eN-
messing it very mildly, for the game
was the best one seen in this city, this
sea son and the only shutout game played
here for several years. In only one in
nin.e were any scores made, and that
was in Gardeners half of the first, when
two runs were scored by BeckWorth and
Munro hy good hitting and fine base run-
ming Nine times the PcttinSlll Corner
PLAYERS came to the lat and were as
many times retired with score to Their
credit. and after the first inning the
HON. team failed to score. one player
WAS seen in this game whose playing was
as pretty. clean and heady as any ever
seen in Gardiner, and who from the l.rst
gained the admiration of the audience.
This man was Beckwith, who certainly
wa Il star and rs good natured as he
was a capable player. His work behind
the bat was of the gilt-edged order and
he made a record As a batter by getting
four clean hits in being at the bat as
many times. Ills base running was also
an iuportaut feature. Lancaster, the
home pitcher t~ircd the ball in a most
crcditable manner and his support by the
entire team was what won the game.
Munro Oh first deserves special mention
for clever work. Morrell made his record
as a fielder when he put out four on high
| flies. ore of which was Il hard one. anc
was secured while on the run after cover

be made off his delivery and no hit fol
more than one base. jackson WAS very

POPULARITY OF DIAZ.
Ambassador Clayton Says That He is
Certain to Succeed Himself.

Washington, July 17-Mr. Powell Clay
ton, American ambassador to Mexico
who is on leave of absence from his post,
is in Washington and called at the State
Department today. He came north to see
his daughter, the Baroness Moncheur,
wife of the Belgian minister, depart for
Europe and will himself in a few days re-
turn to Mexico by steamer.
The ambassador says that Mexico is in
an eminently satisfactory condition and
that President Diaz has a wonderful hold
upon the affections of the people and is
certain to succeed himself. The work of
the American monetary commission in
Europe is watched with the greatest in
terest in Mexico, where the permanent adj
justment of ratio for exchange between
silver and gold IS probably more import
tant than in any other country.
