In their game with the Active A. G.
of Kearney, last Saturday afternoon at
Franklin Field the Pastimes found
Dougherty's delivery hard to solve ex-
cept in the fourth and fifth innings.
In those innings six hits, three Of
them two baggcrs, one sacrifice, two
bases on balls and two errors netted
them seven runs, which the Actives
were unable to catch up to. The Wis
itors found Brown even more difficult
to understand. In five innings they
did not make a hit and only one in
each Of the other four, except in the
sixth when they succeeded in getting
two. Doyle had the majority of as
|sists to his credit and handled them in
his usual quick manner, which has
made him SO popular at short stop.
One of the errors marked up against
him was because he failed to hear the
captains call for Kelly to take fly
and in endeavoring to take it himself
he interfered with Kelly's play. Ma
loney played in place OF Studley at
first, and covered that position we'll.
West was well enough to appear in
uniform again and took care OF left
field during part Of the game.
Following is the score:

The imperial eagle, the largest Of
the species known, flies to height of
from 10000 to $4,000 feet 1t is ma
tive of South America, and Its habitat
Is among the lofty mountains of that
country. Its power Of flying to high
attitudes is only exceeded by the con-
dor Of the Andes, which is said to have
attained the height of six miles, or
within one mile of the greatest height
ever attained by balloon. The eagle
sails in the air at heights ranging from
three to five miles and when seen to
soar upward by an observer on the
earth's surface disappears from sight
in about three minutes.

FIRST PIANO MAKER.



Two specimens OF Cristoforf's Work
stiI1 In Existence.
1t was harpsichord maker, Cristo-
fori, in the employ of the Duke Of Tus-
cany, who in It'll made the first sue
cessful piano. AS curator of Ferdinand
de Medici he had splendid collection
of Belgian. French and italian instru-
ments to look after, and this undoubt-
eddy aided him. though the model was
so crude that the inventor could never
have dreamed monument would ever
be erected in his memory. There are
only two grand pianofortes Of Cristo-
fori in existence.
One decorated in gold and Chinese
figures is In Florence, and the other is
in the Crosby Brown collection in the
Metropolitan Museum Of Art. Three
documents attest the authenticity of
this last instrument, which was pur-
chased from Signor Diego Martelli.
From this feeble beginning long list
of names could be mentioned of men
who helped perfect the piano. But fac
tories alone could never have achieved
without royalty to encourage and vir-
tuosos to play. Frederick the Great or
dered Ave pianos for his palace, where
they can be seen at the present day.
Marie Antoinette was a patron Of the
art, and Clement in England and Mo-
Fart in Germany introduced the instru-
ments, so it became part of life 1t

FALL OF A GRIZZLY BEAR.
without Warming Trnctable Beast
Kills His Trainer.

without Warning a Trnctable Beast
kills His Trainer.
A distinct type of zoo rogue is the
beast that goes wrong owing to acct
dental temptation, like Shaggy, an ex-
ceedingly intelligent, tractable Rocky
mountain grizzly who reverted to saw
agery and turned man killer in twin
king owing to the unfortunate misstep
and fall of his trainer
Shaggy was big, handsome, gray
old fellow, with jungle thick coat
and numbering. awkward gait and a
funny twinkle that made him particu-
larly adaptable for his part of clown in
remarkably trained group Of fourteen
bears. He had come under the hands
of his teacher when but helpless cub,
had never lost his liking for caresses
and, although the mightiest beast in
the collection, was least suspected Of
being dangerous. Once when striped
hyena hung to the ankle of his friend
he had run to the rescue, had cut loose
right and left with his ponderous fore
paws and had bitten and torn and man
gled the ugly beast to death before he
could be beaten off. Among his accom-
plishments were that Of turning admi-
rably grotesque somersaults and the
more difficult feat Of balancing him
self on his hind legs on a three foot
wooden sphere
Not scratch or scar had his train
er to show for the years of work he
had put in with the bear, and yet,
without an instants warning, this
same beast attacked and injured his
master so that when rescued he was
semidemented and SO dreadfully cut
and Iacerated that the surgeons decid-
ed it useless to try to save his life

toy gardening is Of all sorts the most
pitiful and ridiculous. "No true art"

than the reality it Stimulates. In other
words imitation should always be in
the nature of an amiable condescen-

or even mere frailty or smallness sug-
gests to the eye. the Intellectually of
toy is out Of place in any sort of gar
dening. We do not actually speak all
this. but we imply it, and we often find
that the mere utterance of the words
"toy gardening has magical effect

CLASS MUSICAL.
Miss Mary McKinnon's Class in Music Give Creditable Re-
 cital at Hirsch Home.

{ A recital that reflected credit upon both teacher and pupil was given Thursday evening at the Hirsch home by six of Miss Mary lMcKinnon's pupils, which was listened to and enjoyed by quite d party of interested ones. This sthe first of a series of musi- cales to be given by this class, an announcement that will be well received.
 The opening numbers Bar chetta, Nevin, and The Brook, 1" Gautice, by Miss Irma Hooker were beautifully inter- preted and proved much study upon her part.
 Miss Ellen Jones followed with the Lullaby" by Bloch. Of a musical temperament, she prom ises to be a mistress of the vio- | lin and even at her young age, ten years, is capable of much expression.
 Miss Bertha Hirsch, who out ranks Ellen but one year, is also deserving of special mention and her rendition of the Spinning Song" by Ellmenreich was high ly complimented and well worthy of a pupil of three years instead of one.
 Miss Della Bernstein sang "Du bist me elm Blume' by Kullak and "A Dream by Wright, winning much applause. Her voice showed strength, carrying power and pathos, three needed qualities in a really good voice. The first selection is an exquisite little poem and was sung in the original German.
 Miss Hilda Bailey played Beet hoven's "Adieu to the Piano. with much feeling, also Gretchen am Spinwad,o by Harmston in . nasterly manner, 1 the left hand bringing out the melody particularly well.
 Miss Jennie McCauley on the violin gave the concluding num- bers, Thorne's Confession" and Prayer and Air from Frei- schutz" by Weber in very ar tistic manner. Both pieces were very difficult, but Miss McCau- ley's technique was smooth and flexible.
 Miss McKinnon, ~whose music has too many component beau ties to individualize among them, closed the evenings entertain ment with a number of selections that met with vigorous encores.
 Those present were: Mes danes E. Mcdonald, l.. McCauley, R. M. Johnson, J. H. McI1ugh, R. T. Simmons, Gustave Jones, I. Goldman, Wm. Hooker, Vim. Bailey, J. w. Stayton, Vim. l Mosby, A. J.
