ABOUT GOLDFISH.

II may be mentioned as a strik-
ing illustration of the law of heredity
that goldfish seem to be quite con
tented in captivity. This is not the
case with other varieties OF FISH
which have not been bred In aquarl-
ums. When first confined fish are
likely to be wild, though sooner or
later they quiet down and often be.

The greatest trouble the goldfish
farmer has to contend against arises
from the snakes. cats, frogs and in.
sects innumerable, which all yearn to
destroy the goldfish. A constant
watch for these pests must be kept.
The sting Of some insects will kill
goldfish In almost every instance.
Snake feeders" and other insects fly
close to the water In summer, and,
when the tiny fish rise 10 the surface
OF the pond as in their habit, an egg
is laid, or sting insered, by one
OF these watchful insects. Either OF
these infections - fatal.

A NEW GAME.

A NEW GAME.
II was Saturday morning and the
twins stood hand in hand, looking sor.
rowfully out OF the window.
Its going to rain?' with a sob,
said Sue.
ITS raining now!" with a wall,
said Lou.
Then together they said, what
shall we do?"
Now big Brother Hugh was homo
from college on n vacation and when
he saw how disappointed his little
sisters were at staying IN for tho
rain, he said: Come here, girls!
I've a brand-new game for you Here
are some paper and pencils. Who

"Mr. Brown" answered the girls

Brother Hugh, with twinkle in his
eye: "Mr White is blacl, as Snow"
taking the paper from her.
The girls squealed in unison, "oh,
how funny"
you need not conflne yourself to-
colors. There are other qualities
quite as amusing and quite as true.
You both know Mr.. Savage; there
never was a gentler. kinder man.
Now am going TO leave you. In an
hour come up to my room and show
me what you have written"
The two girls had an exciting
time In imagination they travelled
all over town, and visited everyone

wondered what made them 50 indus

and never once thought OF the rain

Storz Trlumphs

Prize Aggregation of Colored Ball
Tossers Loses Great Contest to
the Local Stars.

The Omaha Giants, the crack colored
team that made a tour of Nebraska, Iowa,
Minnesota, North and South Dakota and
only lost fourteen games out OF l29 played,
met defeat yesterday at Vinton Street park
when they locked horns with the Storz
Triumphs. The contest was very interest
ing and exciting from the minute the dis
pute clerk called play ball" until the
last chocolate drop entered the put out
column
Many stunts that bordered the phenom-
email were pulled off during the melee.
For the Storz Triumps, Hall was the
that looked impossible. The colored war
riors scored the first pearly when Pierce
got first on an error, then Coe heaved
over second and the pill got by Quigley,
Pierce scoring on the play. The next in
ming Quigley hit, stole second and third
and then Quigley and Fox worked the
squeeze play, Fox laying down a pretty
hunt along the third base line, Quigley
scoring by hairs breadth
In the eighth inning Coe hit, went to third
when the Giants twirler attempted to
catch Drummy off second, Coe sneaked In
home with the winning tally.
Lott, DOR the Storz Triumphs, heaved ele-
giant bali, striking out fourteen and only
allowing the hard-belting Giants two hits
Only three runs were scored during the
entire contest, the final score being to
in favor of the Triumphs This game was
the end of most successful season for
the brewery aggregation. They only lost
five games out of tbirty-six played, which
is not only a remarkable record, but some

COMING CUBAN ELECTION
WILL TELL CUBA'S PROGRESS
Hope Expressed that IL May he
Accomplished without Fraud
by citizens.

HAVANA. Oct s-with the approach
of the elections on November 1.-THE second
held by Cuban government without
American supervision-there has been per
ceptible a growing hope that what remains
of the campaign and the electoral struggle
may be passed without serious disorders.
The first Cuban election, that of 1904, at
which President Estrada Palma was
elected for a second term. was confessedly
carried by fraud. This led directly to the
revolution Of August 1906, the overthrow
Of the Palma administration and the second
American Intervention, which continued
under the governor generalship of Charles
f. Magoon, until General Jose Miguel
Gomez, who had been elected president at
an election hsld in 1908, under the supervis-
ion OF Colonel Crowder and other American
officers of Governor Magoon's cabinet, was
inaugurated president of the restored re-
public on January 2S, 1909.
Most of the candidates for the various
offices have now been nominated and in
Havana alone there are no less than five
parties in the field. These are the liberal
party (zayaists), the historic liberal party
(Niguelsts), the independent liberal party
(headed by General Nunez), the working
mems party, and the party OF young Cuba

Explosive Used for Powder May Have

Rescue work Proceeds slowly BeA
cause of Poisonous GRses-NO
Hope of Men Being Yet



MONTERREY. Mex. oct. S-Latest
news from the coal mine at Palu where
the explosion occurred Friday night, indi-
Gates that the loss of life will probably be
seventy-two miners mostly MeNicans and
Japanese. Only two bodies have thus far
been recovered. owing to the presence Of
poisonous gases.
The cause OF the explosion has not yet
been accurately determined, but the indics-
tons are that 1t was caused by miners
smuggling in some common dynamite in
stead of using the safety powder furnished
by the company.
The force Of the explosion blew down all
n the timbers in the stope from the sixth
lift to the surface. IL blew out the mouth
of the stope, lifting twenty feet of surface
and closing the mine. The fan house was
also blown down, but the fan and engine
were not injured.
Entrance was made to the mine through
the second opening, but all the ventilatinR
currents and air stepping being destroyed,
it was impossible to penetrate into the mine
far enough to reach any of the miners,
The first rescue party was overcome and
a second party had to go In to relieve them
They were overcome by after damp. but
were brought to the surface and recovered
in a few hours.
The work of restoring the air currents is
proceeding as rapidly as possible with all
the men that 1t is safe to work. Two bodies
have so far been recovered and there are
about seventy more men in the mine. There
is no possibility of the men being recovered
alive, as it will be forty-eight hours more
before all the bodies can be reached. The
neighboring mines have all sent their
superintendent with picked men and all
have aided faithfully in the rescue work.
The rescue helmets, Of which the COM
pany has fun supply, could not be used,
as they were so heavy and the space left
to crawl through small that the men
could not got through with them on.
This mine was the largest producer of
the Coahuila Coal company and has been
shipping about $4,000 tons Of coal per month
for some years.
