SoRRowFUu SIMEON.

Sim Griggs is always frettin'; he's never
Unless he's tellin' people about how hard
he's tried
To be patient Christian. and how 1t
hasn't paid:
He thinks the Lord Is always upsettin'
plans he's made;
But, as fer me, reckon that greater
things than Sim -
Are claimin' Gods attention and maxim
work fer Him.
Sims always sure in April that frost'n
kill the fruit;
He always counts on missin' before he
aims to shoot:
Before he starts to poundtn' he's sure
he'll hit his thumb;
He frets in pleasant weather about the
storms to come;
He thinks the Lord is watchin' him al
ways, everywhere
And schemin' to keep sendin' more cares
fer him to bear.
Now, I have learned this lesson from
hearin' Sim complain:
To yell before you're hit brings double
dose Of pain;
The man that's always losin his crops
before he sows
Does very little reapin', and any man
that knows
The Lord keeps busy tryin' to push him
to the wall
Must have a sneakin' notion that God is
mighty small.

llFEf ON oRPEDo BOAT.
The Mem Have TO Take Their Sleep
and Food in g Catch as Catch ::z
!. S z5 q. t.5 4. Can" Fashion. ss3s a. !

"A man on q torpedo boat has to.catch
his sleep ION the dy and he becomes
exceedingly expert, being !, young and
adaptable, at making UP the required
amount of slumber in little mosaics of
an hour now, half an hour then and ten
minutes later on. He becomes accus-
toned to drop into doze whenever q
favorable minute arrives and he is not
on duty, and to stay in that condition
until sudden lurch of the boat shakes
it out of him. Never at sea does he ex-
pect to be able to turn in for a full
nights sleep, says writer in the Boston
Globe. - - ~ -
+ This: difficulty of sleeping ON torpedo
boat at sea is one of the principal rea-
sons why the feet of destroyers sent to
Manila had an itinerary arranged for It
which provided for 80 days spent in port
and only 20 at sea. This 80 days of rest
against 20 of active seagoing is calculat-
ed to be about the limit of endurance of
picked crew on torpedo boat. A de-
stroyer. it must me remembered, is only
torpedo boat of a larger growth, and
not so much larger as to make any mate
rial difference in the amount Of discom-
fort and strain put upon the crew, espe.
cially where the theater of action is the
open ocean.
A man who has had much service on a
torpedo boat said to the writer:
1T is not only sleep with which you
have to play catch as catch can on board
a torpedo boat, but you have to play tag
with your food as we'll. If there was
anything like sea on. we never used to
think of sitting down to table, but took
such food as we could get in one hand
and ate it while we held on with the
other
IA great part of the time cooking was
next to impossible. and cold canned
stuff, or what was left over of the stuff
which had been cooked in port, had TO
suffice us, and we grabbed that as we
could and. when we could
"The cook always; or almost always,
used to make coffee for us, though how
he managed it was a mystery, for:
though he used to lash the coffee pot
to the top of the stove and toe down
the lid, the pitching and the rolling of
the boat in heavy 5seaway would spill
large portion of the contents of the pot
out through the spout.
''Then cookey would put cork in
the mouth of-the spout, and when the
boiling coffee generated steam enough
the lid would blow off, or the cork would
fly out. Altogether, it was only by the
exercise of indefatigable energy amt
skill of the sort which ought to have
been recognized in general orders that
finally enough coffee would be manufac-
tured to give each man cup"

THE SYRIAN BARBER BOWL,
A Novelty in Tonsorial Utensils That
Is Popular with Some New
Workers..

Il have quite a number of novelties
from my country" said the Syrian bar
Der in Washington street, relates the
New York Times, 'but keep them for
my American customers. The Syrians
want the latest Yankee notions. Of
course, once in awhile an old mountain
eer happens in who longs for the ancient
customs, but he is only a. bird of pas
saga maker of laces or peddler of
saddlebags-going through the metrop-
oils to some other city.
"The Syrian bowl seems to please New
Workers most. A number of artists come
to my shop just to have it used on them
Here it is. Quite ornate, isn't it They're
not all alike, but 1 keep this one because
my customers admire the inlaid work on
it, and while I'm shaving them enter
tain them with the story of it or the in
dustries of the villagers who produce this
kind of merchandise The shape is the
egs-basin. The semicircular brim fits
the neck of the customer. and if he likes
he can use silver wire clasps about the
ears. In Syria the lather is made right
in the bowl with the hand and applied
by the hand to the face of the customer,
but New Workers won't have that, they
like the brush dipped in.. The native
brush is unique, made of soft split grass,
but only my people stand for it; the
smooth; tender skin Of Yankees can't
stand its harshness of fiber.
My people like plenty of perfume put in
the bowl, but perfumes and scented
soaps make Anglo-Saxons mad. We use
moistened, scented clay after shaving
as a sort of powder for the face. 1t is
splendid for the skin and acts as a disin-
fectant, but though import quite a lot
of it from the mountain country, have
a hard time to get rid of it among my for
eign clients Lately some ladies have
been buying 1t to use in their cosmetics
They are finding out it's medicinal auali-
ties, and they don't have the prejudice
against it that the men seem to have.
A society woman happened into my shop
day or two ago and bought "a Syrian
barber bowl and an ear razor for shaw
ing the inside of the ear. These razors
are fine things, and all the nobility use
them at home: I showed her how to
handle the blade and told her to be care
full and always employ the tiny ear-mir-
ror with it. - Il :.s<>zS s:s. -

thing for any horrid purpose like that.

THE PUGILISTS. TWO FAST
 LITTLE BOUTS
Philadelphia Sees Another Six Round Batfle--Private Fight and a Knock Out in it-Other News.

Philadelphia, Sept 2 Jack Will Hams, the clever middleweight, who has been knocking out his opponents with great frequency of late, met his match last night in Ed Denfass. All Williams's cleverness and hitting abil- ity were of no avail, and at the end os the bout 1t was an even thing. In the second, Williams became the aggressoq and for minute had matters all his own way, but Denfass again turned the tide, this time with a swinging left to the jaw. Denfass fought carefully in the third round, and Williams was seldom able to reach him. After near ly two minutes, in which neither land ed h solid punch, Denfass opened uu and the fighting was lively for the re- mainder of the round. The fourth round was taken up more with wrest- ling and clinching than boxing. Will Hams had all the better of the fifth round. He caught his opponent with right upper cut at the start of the round, and the round was almost fin ished before he recovered from the et- fects of the punch. Tn the last round it was give and take. The honors i'll the early part were all with Denfass, but Williams gained 1t all back in the last two minutes.

RUHLIN AND MuNRoE.

Gus Ruhlin is only too willing to fight Munroe. Harry Pollok's chal- lenge to the burly Swiss has been ac- cepted by Billy Madden, Ruhlin's man. ager, who said that he would consider any reasonable offer from a responsi- ble club.
 Munroe is foolish to take on Ruhlin, who can assuredly beat him. As Bat Masterson says, Ruhlin took ten times more beating from Jeff before stop ping than did any other of the heav- ies, and when the miner couldn't even tickle the champion with his punches, what is he going to do with a man who stood up under fusillade of the boilermaker's mightiest blows ana fought him back?

Auruma.ter at sheepshead Bay.

NEW YORK, Sept. 2.-Aurumaster at 20 to l won the Reapers' stakes for three-year-olds at Sheepshead Bay, de feating the odds-on favorite Ormonde's Right by q head. Lyme rushed Or monde's Right into the lead and led to the stretch and was apparently win ming easily when Crimmins brought Aurumaster up and won by catching Lyme off his guard. Wild Mint won the Dash stakes in a driving finish by half a length from Councilman, with the favorite, Dreamer, third. Libretto in the Hampstead cup steeplechase was the only horse to successfully cover the full course. The others ap fell, but Horizontal and Daffodowndilly were remounted and finished second and third respectively.

THREE GAMES YESTERDAY
Waterville Beaten by Bris. tolEddy Mann Wins for Manchester Rockville is Badly Whipped.

Bristol, Sept 2.The game of base ball between the Bristol and the WN- terville teams yesterday afternoon on the Center street grounds proved to De a good one, but there were-not many out to see 1t. Up to the ninth inning the Brdstols held the visitors down to three hits and none of these, scattered as they were, could be turned into runs. Tn the ninth hit by the visa itors, followed by some wild throwing around the bases, resulted in another man getting first and both men ulti- mately scoring. It was largely a pitchers battle except for one inning on each side with the odds all in favor of Hogarty, the Unionville boy, who helped last Saturday to shut out the Willimantics, a feat which would have been repeated yesterday but for the errors of the Bristols. Hogarty had seven strike-orts to his credit, al- lowed two men to walk to base and hit a man with the ball, and there were four hits off him. Allen. who was sub pitcher on the Yale nine and for two months was one of Jim IO'Rourke's pitchers, did good work, but did not show up as brilliantly as did his opponent He had four strike outs, allowed one man to walk to base and there were eight hits made off him. The score:

BAsEBALL NOTES.

Umpire Charlie Kennedy Is in New York awaiting assignments from President Pulliam He will do spare work untll the close Of the season.
 The Boston Americans will make quick work of getting beyond reach if the team continues the assault on pitchers which was begun this week.
 Connie Mack, the Philadelphia man ager, has purchased Pitcher Fred Ap- plegate of the Toronto Eastern league team. Applegate has only three fin gers on his pitching hand.
 Jack Deering, the big pitcher, was heading south when intercepted by New Haven. Manager Canavan would probably feel as well satisfied if Deer ing had continued beyond reach.
 The New Haven Register says that no one can begrudge Springfield its lead in the race. The team has won cleanly and fairly. 'It's different with Bridgeport" concludes the Reg ister.

RAGING.
WATERBURY HORSE LOST
 IN PECULIAR WAY

Holyoke, Sept Yesterdays card of three races, each decided in straight heats, closed the meet of the Holyoke Driving club. The failure Of. entries i'll the pacing events for to- day, the 2:22 and 2:29 classes, to show on the grounds, caused the program of sport to be clipped.
 Rather than drop from the standard set in the three days by putting on an inferior card, with small fields and re- duced chances of keen racing, the pro- moters decided to store their energies for another meet which will probably be arranged for the last week ill the month or early in October.
 The unfinished 2:1S pace, five heats of which were contested Wednesday, was cleaned up yesterday. Edith J. and McGavock, each with two heats, and William F., winner of one, were the starters Edith T. won heat and race, but not until there had been some judicial consideration of the conditions McGavock, tho bay stall lion that showed speed in the early heats of the race. came out cold. The fact that the stallion hadn't been warmed up was noticed in the judges stand, but no driver was substituted. Edith J. won in 2:1S with William F. second and McGavock third.

THE OLYMPIC GAMES.
Chicago Athlete Won the Interna-
 tionaI Foot Race.

taOnaA Foot Race.
 ST. LOUIS, Sept 2-American ath. Ietes held the center of the stage here in the fourth day of the Louisiana Pur- chase exposition revival of the Olym- pic games, and to their pluck and grit belongs the credit for creating one worlds record and three Olympic rec ords.
 One of the greatest races of the 1904 olympiad was the 800 meter run. The distance in American measure is S74.S9 yards. Entered in the race were repre- sentatives of the United States, Ger many, Canada and New Zealand, but the first four places were claimed by men running under the colors of Chi cago, New York and Milwaukee ath- letic clubs.
 Not only did James D. Lightbody of the Chicago Athletic association lower the Olympic record by 2-5 seconds, but he ran the legs off the German representative, who collapsed at the finish.
 The race also proved to be heart breaking for D. w. Breitkreutz of the Milwaukee Athletic club, who after crossing the tape m third place fell exhausted on the track, and it was several minutes before he could leave the field.
 M. Prinstein of the Greater New York Irish Athletic association broke the Olympic record in the running broad jump on his fourth trial with distance of 24 feet inch. The rec ord was formerly held by A. O. Kranz- lein, University of Pennsylvania, who jumped 2a feet 6R inches at the Paris olympiad fin 1900
 H. l.. Hillman of the New York Ath- letic club maintained his reputation as the fastest man in the world over the hurdles by breaking the Olympic rec ord of 25 2.5. seconds, made by A. 0. Kranzlein, University of Pennsylva- nia, at Paris in 1900. Hillman went the distance in 24 B-5 seconds.
