the most part from the hands OF en-
inent composers, classic. modern and
contemporary. 'Carnavap and 'Papil-

for lie Spectre de la Rose is Ber-

Prince Igor Borodin's opera.
The mined scene in the watery pal
ace Of the river god and the mined
episode Of the melting Of the snow

Rimsky Korsakov's operas, 'Sadko'
and 'Snegourotchka.' Stravinsky wrote
the music for L'Oiseau De Ecu
and 'Petrouchka.' The Indian ballet.
lie Dieu Bleu' came from the Pari-
sian, Hahn, and the mythological Mar

two or three numbers at each per

Diaghileff proposes to bring to Ameri-
ca eighteen or twenty different pieces.
Two are mined scenes with incidental
dances from Rimsky Korsakov's
operas-one from 'Sadko' in the abode
of the river gods beneath the waters,

I, Hamilton won the championship of

game OF the Hamilton-Warsaw series

The game was one Of the best ex-
hibitions OF the national pastime seem
on the local grounds this season. Both
teams played In good form and some
pretty plays were executed.
Mekemson pitched q tight game Tor
Hamilton, allowing only five hits. one
OF which Hosford misjudged, but he
caught p. King OF third by an accur-
ate throw from the left field fence.
Hamilton team was strengthened by
the return Of Pat Hiser to the game.
Hiser has been out nearly al season

timely hits and scored from frst base

and to show that I was not above my
business, sometimes brought home the
paper I purchased at the stores through
the streets on wheel-barow. Merchants
began to solicit his custom and he began
to prosper until in ten years time he was.
as he expressed it, ''easy in circum-
Stances and able to give much of his
time to other things.
In these days the frugality Of Franklin
is apt to be looked upon as quite out of
made seemingly by chance. But where
one fortune is made in this way, thou
sands grow from little savings.
John D. Rockefeller, the organizer Of
the Standard Oil Company, has made
more money than, probably, any other
man Of his day. He has more than he
himself, il is said, can keep account of;
He Is rated as Millionaire. Yet, as we all
know, he began his business career as a
clerk in a small town in the rural section
Of New York. He practiced economy
and was not ashamed to do 80. His
theory is that one can only be ready for
the opportunities which come to the
ambitious and hardworking when the
habits of thrift and prudence in spending
have been cultivated.l
Mr.. Rockefeller still has the little
memorandum book that he kept when he
was 4 poor clerk, in which he kept
account of every penny that he spent and
thus knew Just what was going out. For
like other men whose wealth has been
amassed little by little, he realised that
what goes out 10 greater factor in &C!
cumulating money, than what comes In.

Work on the new sme1ter on the
Industrial tract will be given a de-
cided impetus the latter part Of this
week with the completion of the
branch railroad track from the North
Road line over to the site where the
buildings are to be constructed.
II the weather does not interfere.
the switch will be completed by to-
morrow night and smelter material
can be shipped up from the lower
yards.
The work Of constructing this
switch has been going on for several
weeks. A large gully had to be filed
between the Moth Road track and the
smelter site and Pile bridge con-
structed through the center OF the
gully for water drainage.
Until this switch was completed
very little real work on the smelter
could be accomplished because of the
difficulty in getting material to the
grounds.
There are seven car loads Of smell
ter material in the lower railroad
yards, Superintendent Of Construction
Medberry states, and this will be run
out to the grounds as soon as the
switch Is completed.
With the start OF active work on
the smelter buildings, more mon will
be taken on, It is stated.
