Tho Bpanrntem Ones Aore Artistically Do Up Onr Own Slngrsers. jFrrnAt. tfi.fgp.ai to the dirpatctt.i Boston-, Sept 13 Pittsburg 501 badly trounced again by Boston to-day in a game full of lively batting and at times brilliant fielding. The element of luck entered largely into the contest, and Dame Fortune smiled only on tho Beaneaters. The most popular feature ot the game was Donovan's desper ate effort to score for the Pittsburgs. Four times he went to the bat, and each time a good clean hit was recorded. Three times in succession did he dash for the plate only to be beaded off by marvelous throws from the outfield. Although the score was very ne-sided, the contest was lull of interest. The first inning didn't give the Pittsburgs much cornlort. Soran Costly Mistake VTrrt, Made. The Bostons were booted for no runs, but the visitors pot a bad do9e of the rattles at an inopportune moment, and four runs were scored w ithout the least difficulty, not one of tbein being earned. Terry did not get the kinks out ot his arm until he had given Long his base on balia, McCarthy sent a hot one which evaded Becklev's clutch, Bierbauer did well to stop it, bat he had no time to field it, and both men were safe. Dully tried to sacrifice, but he sent the ball directly into Terry's hauds, and Long was lorced out at second. .Nash flied out and the chances of a run look ed very small. Then Terry filled the baes by giving Lowe four bad balls. Tucker hit an erratic bonnder which skipped over Shncart's head nnd McCarthy scored, leaving the bases filled. Quinn sent a similar bounder which went over Bier Sauer's outstretched hands and rolled out into right field. Dufly and Lowe scored and Tucker reached third base. Then Tucker was enabled to score, thanks to Bierbauer's wild throw to the plate. Nichols brought the trouble to an end by striking out. In the Pittsburg's half, Miller flied out to Long, then Donovan rapped a hot one which Nash could not reach. He ran down to second on Smith's fioul fly to Bennett Donovan's Bold Bna Itnnnlnc. The latter made n beautiful throw from the pavilion to bead him ofi, but he was too late, and the ball taking a bad bound went "beyond Quinn, and Donovan kept on to the plate. But Dnfly and Quinn made beauti lul throws and Donovan's plucky effort was for naught. The fourth inning saw the r-ame Pittsburiers again nailed at the plate. Donovan opened the inning with a clean drive to center, and Smith larruped the ball to right center tor two bases. Everybody chalked down a run lr " Pittsburg, but Dnfly and Long retired Donovan at the plate by two marvelous throws. Charlie Farrell proved d strong bulwark of defense for Pittsburg. In the fifth inning, with only one out, Long end McCarthv hit saiely," Dufly sent a Eeorcher to Farrell, which was captured, and, alter Long had been touched out, the ball was lined across the diamond in time to make a pretty double play. In the last half of the sixth Donovan was retired at the plate for the third time, after Kelly and Miller had been retired, the latter on a phe nomenal play by Quinn. Donovan was cheered when he stepped to the bat in the eighth inning.

Corbott "Will Give Both Jaclcson nnd Mitch ell a Chinee Later On. Philadelphia, Sept. 13. "Hello, Jim; I "mew you would win, I Just made $1,7C0 by you." This was the greeting that met Champion Jim CorDett's ears to-day when the tram ar rived at Broad Street station. A delegation from the Philadelphia Swimming Club, of which organization Corbett is a member, Kiidaparty of newspapor representatives, met the special at Chestor, where it pulled in eighteen minutes latent 12:28. TheCorbett special was the rear Pullman. Corbett, in talking to tho newspaper men, sat on the arm of a chair, and w hen asked to say sonie tning about the fight said: "Well, I did something no one else ever did. I went to New Orlcansand showed that I was not afraid of Sullivan and whipped him. I am now going to make all I can out of it, don't yon see. I am in it not only for the fighting, but the money. I feel that there is a lot of money lying around wnit ing for me, and I am not going to loso any time getting it. I intend to take care of it and save it. This aitcrnoon, as soon n I reach Sew York. I am rointr to send sio.noo to my lather. As to my future action, I nm not going to fight until 1 got ready, and then I mar aive Chariev Mitchell a. olmnp.n t.n prove who is the better man." "How about the color line?" was asked. "I see I hae been quoted as sayine 1 would not fight a colored man," ho replied, "but that is not so. I have nevirsaid the first thins about the oolor line. You know I lought Jackson, and I think the light will prnvo that I whippud him." Backer Brady here chimed in, corroborat ing w hat had been said, and stated further that he had never said anything about tho "color line" He was asked why he had jumped around Sullivan to much, to which he made answer: "I wanted to find out what I was fighting. I was studying him. I wanted to find ont wnat I was standing up against. Every time lie made a Jump at me I watched my chauco and let him have one. I struck the lirst blow in the second round, and when I went to my corner I wanted to go for him, hut Dolanoy held me back and told me to be cautious, and not take any chances."

GENERAL sporting news op the Dil Gr.AYESE-tfD Race Track, Sept 13. Four favorites, one heavily backed second choice and two long shots, -gave betters a decided advantage over the bookmakers in this afternoon's struggle for possession of the mighty dollar. The weather was threatening, but the programme looked like an easy one from which to pick winners and fully 5,000 people made -the attempt Banquet, 3 to 5, had to drive from the start but Taral finally got him up to the front and won the first race from Lowlander and Fagot May Win, 1 to 2, had an easier pasige, he winning cleverly from English Lady, Dalsyrian and Miss Dixie. AVhite Rose then gave the bookmakers an inning by leading from start to finish and winning the third race at post odds of G to 1. Ciiekapeike, the 8 to 5 favorite, finished third to Fred Taral, 6 to 1. Al though Kingston had a hard race yesterday with Correction, he, also the mare, was sent to the post to give Dr. Hasbrourk a tussle for the Culver stakes. Dr. Hasbrouck set a clipping pace and had Kingston under the whip at the end of five lurlongs. At the end Hasbrouck won somewhat easily by an open length, at 13 to 10, Kingston being second at 7 to 10, nnd Correction, 20 to 1, beaten off ten lengths. Taral, by desperate riding, took the fifth race with the Annie F colt, 2 to 1. Doctor, 5 to 1, was the best colt, but Hayward was uo match for Taral and had' to be content with second place. Dauonet, 5 to 1, was fast catching Rosa II, 7 to 5, butDoggett, bv sheer torce, kept Rosa iu front long enough to win by a head. Reclare was looked upon as a sure winner of the last race, the talent making and keeping her first choice at 4 to 6. AVah Jim was 9 to J and Ella 6 to L The distance was too short for Reclare.

Every racing bicyclist of any prominence is in tow n to-night preparatory to competing in the Springfield Bicycle Club races to-mor-iow and Thursday. Seven hundred and fifty entries have been received for tho races. Ou account of the largeness of the entry list it was found necessary to run off the trial heats this afternoon. Forty-two trials were run off at Hampden P.uk. The men that qualified for the finals include A. A. Zimmerman, New York; 11. U. Tvler. Springfield: U. U Wheeler. P. Berlo. George T.iylor.

W. Taxis, Philadelphia; George Smith, New York, and others. Zimmerman had everything his own way in tho heats, winning his trials handily. It is evident that Willie Witidlc is uot in his usual form. Zimmerman is the favorite for the ono milo invitation race on Thursday, for which the first piize consists oi a team o hotses and a backboard wagon. Zimmerman, Tyley, Windle, Berlo and Taylor aie looked to cie ate some records. Carl Hess, tho Manhattan Athletic Club racer, and L. D. Muuger, of the Chicago Cycling Club, got into an altercation in the ill easing room between the beats. Tho lat ter aicused Hess ot puipooely interfering with' him in a nice. Hess denied the accusation in some rather uncomplimentary languaje, when the CnicagL racer struck Hess a violent blow in the face, knocking him down. The men wet e thai scpai ate;). The tn,ck is in perfect condition, and thete is every indication that many records will be loweied to-morrow. In the two mile li.ind.can, Zimmerman loweied tho it-cord to 4 lii i nut 03 and 51 seconds. In addition to liwering the two mile record in competition sho lowered the one mile also, riding the distance in 2:16 2-6. The previous record for tlie'mile in competition w.is2:19 1-5 held by Zimmsrman. Harry Tyler rode a mile in 2:17 to-diy in his trial heat. VETOED BY BAIN.

The organiza tion, however, wished it to be understood that it w ill not proceed litther in the matter until tho representatives! of tho principals get together and decide ilpon a date tor the battle. Davies said that bile it is certain a challenge would be issued in behalf of Peter Jackson to fight Coroett, it would not bo done until tho arrival of Jackson from England text month. "We do not wish to force Corbott to do any thing," Davies further said: "He has just performed a feat no other man has been able to accomplish, and deserves to reap all the b.-neflts of the periormance that ho can.

Homestead and Buffilo Served to Show the Noed of n National Guard. New Tork Times. The experience of the Pennsylvania National Guard at Pennsylvania and of the New York National Guard at Buffalo will ho of use to the authorities of these States in ascertaining what their respective organi zations need for prompt and efficient field service. Much of the value of regulars in thesupptession of riots has come, not only from their prestige and their training as pro fessional soldiers, but from their thorough .eqninment and rcti'linessfpr campai ;ning. 'The present summer has snowiT-tnav-tno-organized militia ot a great State like New York or Pennsylvania can bo put into tbo field with promptness worthy of regulars, and of course In greater numDers than the rigulars could at onco furnish, at least in these States, oven woro it tho business of the array to trench upon the province of local troops In such cases, as it is not. Still, some minor defects in equipment were re vealed by this sharp test, nnd these, when fully ascertained and defined by the olflcial reports, tho State authorities should promptly supply. The part to be played by the citizen sol diers of the country in tho preservation of order and the execution of the laws must evidently be important henceforth, and all the appliances necessary for tho puipose should be Jurnished. PANIC STRICKEN DEP0SIT0ES. They Crowd About an English Bank's Doors and Demind Their Money. Loxdox, Sept. 13 The crowd of panic stricken depositors who weio unable to withdraw their money from the Biikbeck Bank yosterday bean, to gather at 5 o'clock this morning before the bank's doors. When the doors wore opened at 10 o'clock, the usual hour, long lines had been formed and the police compelled those in tho lines to keep their places. As soon as tho bank opened the payments commenced. Al though thero is no question that the bank is perfectly solvent and able to meet any claim upon it, it will bo lorced to realize upon more of its securities if the run does not abate. As stated, the hank yesterday sold .500,000 in con-olsat 96, and the sale depressed all Government securities. At the Stock Ex change, consols opened at 86 11-16 and closod at 9t showing a rally near the end. If tho bank is compelled' to make further lorced sales of securities it will suffer heavily. Although the directors promised at the opening of the bank to-day to contiuuo pay ments until midnight, tho bank closed at 4 o'clock, its usual Tour. At tho time the bank closed a placaid was put out reading, "Open from 10 tilt 4." Tho officials ot tho bank allege that they are receiving proofs of returning confidence. Some of the cus tomers who withdraw their money depos ited it again. THE FIBS RECORD. St. Louis Fire was discovered on the fifth floor or tho St. Louis Pearl Homiay Mills Monday.

A NEW HIGH SCHOOL Tho Present Building Unable to Accommodate the Pupils. LOOKING FOR A SUITABLE SITE. The Fifth Avenue Market Honse Suggested for the Turpose. TWO BUILDINGS MAY BE ERECTED. The Pittsburg High School building is too small Last evening the Central Board of Education cousiaerea the pressing ne cessity of increased accommodations. Dr. R. Torrence introduced the subject by referring to the increasing attendance at the High School, and said more room was needed. They have three rooms for the commercial department in the Franklin School, and will have to get more, and the academical and normal departments are full, aud it is only a question of time until they will have to get other quarters. A suggestion had been made which he repeatcl, that the Central Board secure the Fifth avenue market house. At a small expense they could accommodate there the normal aud commercial departments, the board offices and have a hall for institute meetings, commencement exercises, eta They could sell the Miller street property and get an appropriation from the city to erect another story on the present market house building and fit it up. To this end he moved that a committee of five be appointed to confer with the proper officials toward getting the Fifth avenue market house for school pur poses. An Kast End Addition Suggested. Mr. Holmes said he had found the same crowded condition in the school, but as a remedy he moved to appoint a committee to secure a site for a High School addition in the East End. Mr. Torrence said the idea in getting the Filth avenue market was that it was easy of access from all parts of the city. The pro posed new bridge would bring it close to the Southside and it would be hnndy for all. Mr. Torrence said further that it would be a saving to the city of over 53,000 per year in reut now paid for the Central Board rooms and the rooms iu the Franklin school, etc. If they took this place the city would uot be at the expense ot buying a new site Mr. Holmes thought the market house would not be large enough and the time was near when they would have to get a High School in the East End and one on the Southside, too. Mr. Keller favored the market house plan but at his suggestion Mr. Torrence's motion was amended to have the committee, in ad dition to the market house matter, inquire into the feasibility of securing sites in the East End and on the Southside. A Committee to Hunt Sites. The amended- motion was adopted and President McKelvey appointed on the com mittee Messrs. J. O. Brown, D. R. Tor rence, John Bentz, William Holmes and tieorge Vllon. At Mr. Keller's suggestion a commit tee of six was appointed to arrange for a suitable exhibition of educational work of the Pittsburg publio school at the World's Fair. Those appointed were T. D. Keller, Hugh Adams, A. ' E. McCandless, Samuel Harper, GeorgeBradley and John McKain. The report of the High School Committee was received recommending the election of MibS E C. Minor and Miss M. A. Lewis as teachers in the High School. The recom mendations were adopted. The tuition tor non-resident pupils of the High School was fixed at ?100 for ten months. The Committee on Industrial Schools re ported that the school kitchen in the Knox sciiool will be ready to receive pupils Mon jlyrip.xi SChey named it the Torrence kitchen in honor of D. R. Torrence, chair man of the committee. The school b-itnhen in the Grant school was named the Phipps Kiicusu iu nonor oi tienry ti i-nipps, jr., who established it. The report of the com mittee was approved. Secretary Reisfar reported that the war rants drawn since the last meeting of the board in June amounted to $43,673 27 CANADA'S LABOESES AEOUSED.

The NewZ-alandera Used to Drive) Profit able Bargains In That Line, Pearson's Weekly. -- Visitors to Kew Zealand town?, especially Auckland, are always invited to buy Maori curios, which include roughly carved wooden gods, weapons and imitation tat tooed heads. It is not so very long ago since genuine tattooed heads could be pro cured. They were quite the fashion. Trad ers from Sydney left orders with the Maori chiefs they dealt with for so many dozen tattooed heads to be ready on the return trip. The chiefs were good" business men, anxious to carry out their bargains. Unfortunatelva raid on neighbors did not always come off successfully, and the tale of heads fell short. Then the chiefs cut off the heads of their own men to make np the J. number. This fact was hroueht to light by the missionaries, who did much in checking the excesses of the natives and the villain ous Pakeha-Maori (white men who adopted Maori enstoms and lived with the natives). The traffic in human heiuis was eventually suppressed by the Uw South Wales Gov ernment Of course, before they could be sold as curios the Maori beads had to nndergo a process of curing or drying. The softer portions,such as the tongne, were extracted, and the interior of the skull carefully cleansed. The inside was then filled with dressed flax, and the skin hanging from the neck was closed up, being drawn together like a closed pnrs. It was then demi cooked bv the steaming process peculiar to the people. It was next exposed to the rays of the sun and at night to the smoke of a wood fire, which was sufficient to preserve it for m-my years, with au occasional airing as a preservative from damp. Heads that underwent this unnatural process became remarkablv contracted. WIVES OF NOTED LITtEBATETTES. Many of tin Wor rt'a Most Fnmrms Men of Letters Unhappily Slarried. Chicago Herald. Dante was married to a notorious scold, and when he was in exile he had no desire to see her, although she was the mother of his six children. Shakespeare lost the sympathies of the world by marrying Anne Hathaway, a woman eight years his senior, who was coarse and ignorant. Lord Bacon enjoyed but little domestic bliss, and "loved not to be with his part ner." Milton was not great in the character of husband and father. We read that his first wife was disgusted with his gloomy house, and soon ran away from him, and his daughters were left to grow up utterly neglected. Moliere was married to a wife who made him miterable. and Rousseau lived a most wretched life with his wife. Drvden "married divcord in a beautiful wife," and Addison sold himself to a cross grained old countess, who made him pay. dearly for all she gave him. Steele, Sterne, Churchill. Coleridge, Byron and Shelley were all married unhap pily, nnd Bulwer and Dickens have been known by all the world as indifferent hus bands. Sir Walter Raleigh married a beautiful girl 18 years his senior, and she adored him with increasing ardor to the very last Dr. Johnson's wife was old enough to be his mother, but "he continued to be under the illusion of the wedding day until she died at the age of 61," he being onltf 43. Shelley's first marriage was unfortunate, but his second was a model of happiness. NEW P20DIGY AT FIGURES. Surprlsln- Tnlent Tor Mnth mitlcs Mani fested In n French Boy. "Mathematicians, physicians, anjl philos ophers have had lately a remarkable op portunity ot studying a new prodigy. Ife is a young man of 24 years of age, named Jacques Inaudi," says Alfred Rivet in the CJiaittaivpim. "Last February Mr. Darboux introduced him at a meeting of the French Academy of Sciences, where he executed with a sur prising rapidity mathematical operations requiring a great number of figures. Jacques passed his early years in tending sheep. He wrs about 6 years old when he first manifested his passion for figures. While watching his flock, he combined nnmbers in his head. Very different from other known calculat ors, he did not try to give to his compula tions any material form, such as counting upon his fingers or using pebbles, as did yonng-Mondeux and Ampere. Every oper ation with him was mental and was made by the use of words. "He represented numbers to himself bv their names which his older brother taught him. Neither he nor his brother at .that time knew how to read. He learned bv ear the names of numbers up to 100, and he be gan his calculations with tin's knowledge. He does not remember that his brother ever taught him the multiplication table. These circumstances of his early life probably ex ercised over his methods n particular lnflu ance which we shall notice later. Wat Virginia ."olid. A. B. White, of Parkersburg, W.

After Effects of Heat and the Results of Changing Weather. Mothers "Wio Now Find it Neesssary to ' Wean Their Infinti September is as hard a month as August for In fants. In Chicago last year 1,205 babies died In Au gust and 1,002 in September. The ill effects ofthe Intense August heat are far reaching. Little ones who have had a touch of the summer disease are often watted from lack of nourishment, and the impairment of the nutritive process at a very important time in the develop ment not infrequently produces scrofula and j rachltl and ot'ier diseases. No summer for years has seen so many deaths of little children In this State, and there was never more sickness among children In Pittsburg. As cool weather comes on children require the most wholesome, nourishing and palatable diet possible, and tactatcd food should be In the hands of every mother. Sudden changes of the atmos phere are dangerous above all things to Infants whose digestive apparatus is out of order, and the use or lactated lood, the physicians say. Is espe-' claily to be commended because of its corrective influence in cases of Irritability of the stomach. Then, too, the mother who has tolled through the summer, trying hard to nurse her child, but. growing weak and losing Ler own appetite until she Is nearly worn out, and finds now that she must wean her Infant, can do It as thousands of mothers have done before upon lactated food. Tnc Infant will like it add will grow strong and happy upon it. Its composition Is simply this: Its basis Is sugar of milk, with it is combined the digestive elements of wheat, barley and oats, pro ducing a pure food which meets every requirement of the grow-ing child. There Is no secret about It; it Is the food physi cians use In their own families and most generally crescrlbe. , Sept. 13. JJ3L o 8AM 66 11AM ... 12M -jj -... 2PM ... tPM ...
