AN EMBARRASSED YOUNG MAN.

He had been invited to dinner, and was fearfully embarrassed and shy. When the meal commenced his agita- tion began. Sitting opporsite to the mirror he discovered, to his horror, that he had forgotten to comb his hair.
 Lifting his hand to arrange his hair he knocked his neighbor's elbow and spill
 ed the spoonful of soup which she was just carrying to her mouth all over he1 dress. As he arose to help her he up- set his glass of water into his other neighbor's lap and tipped over his own plate plate of soup all over himself Finally, matters were strengthened out, but few moments afterward, on put ting his hand underthetable to feel whether the soup had dried on his trousers, he felt-yes it was! How i
 could have happened he could not tell All during therestof the meal he sur Ireptitiously but firmly worked hard fast with his hand under the table
 His embarrassment was painful to be- hold. When the dinner was over
 as hearose, the whole tablecloth and everything on it came crashing to the floor while the young man pulled foot

THE FUTURE OF NIAGARA.
In Some Few Thousand Years It Will
 Have Disappeared, Anyway.

In Some Few Thousand Years It Will
 Have Disappeared, Anyway.
 The earliest discussions of the reces- sion of Niagara Falls led to apprehen- sion of danger and disaster, because the continuance of the present gorge erosion must eventually extend to Lake Erie, the reservoir whence the river flows. It was thought, therefore, iii the excited imagination of many ignorant readers, when the early geo. logical discussions of the history of Niagara were published, that des- tructive flood would thus be let loose from Erie and the upper lakes and would deluge the Ontario Basin and the St. Lawrence Valley.
 Prof James Hall, in 1S49, endeavored to allay these fears. The increasing southuard dip of the rock strata be- tween the present falls and Lake Erie will cause the Niagara to cut into sof- ter and easily eroded beds along that distance, so that it's great cataract, which depends on the thick and hard N Niagara limestone overlying soft chale can no longer be maintained. The river will then run, as Hall declared, in a series of rapids along it's course, from Lake Erie to Lewiston, with perhaps a low fall at the outlet of the lake.
 Another anxiety has been raised more recently by computations of a probable tilting of the land which would slightly change it's inclination in all the region of these great lakes so that ultimately the mouth of Lake Erie would be lifted higher than the very low water divide close to the southwest of Chicago. From computa- tions of the heights of beach marks above the surface of the lakes, deter mined at successive dates separated by periods of from twenty to thirty seven years, Gilbert computed in 1898 that this lake region is being tilted to- ward the south-southwest at the rate during a century, of five inches in q hundred miles. He therefore con- cludes that Lake Michigan, if such tilting continues, will begin to overflow across the natural watershed to the Illinois rlc'er within a thousand years from now this flow will take away half of the volume of the Niagara River, and that after thirty-five hun dred years there will be no Niagara The basin of Lake Erie would then be tributary to Lake Huron, the curren of the Detroit and St. Clair Rivers be. ing reserved.

the track and went one mile and an

Ascot experienced its banner day yes

In addition to the Hollywood handi-

was away in a poor position and did
not make a move until entering the
stretch, when he chased out to over
haul Big Ben, but found the task
an impossible one, as has many of
the best sprinters of the country.
'Domo never lost heart and continued
his efforts until the end, finishing four
lengths in front OF Valencia, which
was third, and two lengths behind
Big Ben.
Fireball was in the race, but never
received a call, running as If yet sore

his previous out
Firm Foot and Sir Brinkley were
also in the "also ram division, but
Sir Brinkley made an excellent show
ing for his first out, running in third
position until the final stretch, when
he tired.
Good Luck Repeats
Good Luck won his fifth straight by
taking the sixth race on the card,
which was at one mile and seventy
yards.
So consistently has this high class
colt performed since arriving at Ascot
that he was made faVorite over a fair
field and was the medium of a heavy
play.
El Otros raced out in front at the
start and led the procession into the
stretch, where Good Luck, which had
trailed easily in second place to this
point, came ON and ran to the front.
Good Luck opened a small gap in the
run home, but Jockey Buchanan drew
the finish fine by easing up the son
Of Sandringham, being content to win
by a head.
May Lowery finished in third posi-
tion, which she held all the way
around, beating out Bill Curtis half a
length.
Cutter ran her first race for Boots"
Durnell in the final event, making q
runaway race of 1t from flag fall to the
wire, easing up with daylight extend-
ing eight lengths back to the next
nearest horse.
The performance was remarkable In
that the good fllly merely breezed all
the way and negotiated the mile

done over lightning fast track IL ex-

an imitation Of a timber-topper going
over the hurdles and tried to clear the
barrier once, unseating Jockey Preston.
This is the time of the year to give
tWo-year-olds some consideration in
races again older horses. The babes
are practically three-year- -olds nor. or
will be full size specimens within a
few days, and the weight allotments
make them dangerous in any company.
Good Luck, which has won every
start at Ascot this season, is one of the
best bred colts at the track. He is by
Sandringham, which was owned by
King Edward VII and afterward sold to
John E. Madden and which is the sire
of Jubilee and Persimmon, both of
which have won the English derby.
Twenty-seven books are now in line
at Ascot. This includes twenty-four 50
hooks, two field books and a combina-
ton book. The new ones are losers, but
to the extent that the regulars are re-
ported In the hole. The talent gave
them n hard jolt yesterday when five
favorites and two heavily backed long
shots speeded across the imaginary line
first.
"Puddin" Mcdaniel was plastered
fine yesterday, Starter Dwyer penaliz-
ing him $50 worth for breaking up starts
in his zeal to get Big Ben away to IA
good start AS further penalty,
Dwyer ordered him to take a three
days vacation. "Puddin" Is always
trying at his best with his mounts. and
this has won large following for the
little crack
Boots" Durnell declined the issue
in the sixth race yesterday and
scratched both his entries. New Mown
Hay and Prince Silverwings. On her
eastern performances New Mown Hay
had nothing to fear from Good Luck,
but the scratches spoiled what was ex-
pected to be great contest between
these two speed marVels.
The formful running of horses at AS
cot is the subject of much comment
by horsemen and the public. The per-
centage of winning favorites during
the twenty-one days of the meeting
has been greatly i'm excess of that
shown by any other track, not ex-
cepting the metropolitan courses of the
east. and only in exceptional cases has
there been performances OF suspi-
cious nature. With these the Judges
have dealth promptly in most cases.

as champion sprinter of the coast II
an exciting race duel at six furlongs
Never has a prettier contest between
thoroughbreds been witnessed on any
race course, and as the trio of speed
marvels thundered through the stretch
to the wire the thousands in the grand
stand and on the walk in front were
shouting in enthusiastic praise and en-
couragement of the racers and their
riders.
Bearcatcher won in comparative easy
fashion, although the big bay son of
st. George was last away from the post
and seemingly hopelessly out of it in
the stretch.
AS the barrier raised after several
Intellectual attempts at getting the field
away from the post, Bearcatchers nose
was seen in front, but only for mo-
ment
Handzarra rushed to the front with
the speed OF a bullet and set sizzling
pace for the first quarter. with Cru
zudos closely following half q length
away and Bearcatcher trailing.
AT the half Cruzados was half a
length in front of Handzarra and Bear.
catcher was four lengths behind. Cru
zados increased his lead TO nearly two
lengths at the head of the stretch, Bear
catcher yet trailing and five lengths
behind Handzarra.
In the stretch Handzarra moved
quickly to the front again and Cruzados
began to tire, while Mcbride sat
motionless astride the big bay four
lengths behind
Here "Puddin' Mcdaniel began to
urge Handzarra, and the good filly
opened up a big gap which seemed to
be too great to be overcome.
Mcbride shook Bearcatcher slightly
and loosened his IRON grip upon the
relns. allowing the Ferguson colt to so
at will. 1t was all over then.
Bearcatcher began to run some, and
as he bounced down the center of the
track like a rubber ball, his forelegs
moving like piston rods on a runaway
engine, it seemed as if the earth was
quaking with the force of the impact.
