Shot Hindu Mob Leader In Suppressing a Riot

GOV. GEN. KITCHENER. While engaged in suppressing riot In the Central jail, Calcutta, Gov. Gen. Kitchener shot and killed one of the Hindu leaders of the disturbance.

Affairs of the The Pirates pushed the shoving Cubs back yesterday by winning a great battle and managed to continue hanging onto the coat tails of the fast moving Giants, who also won. Indianapolis won again yesterday, making It two out of three from Columbus. This defeat almost put the Champs out of the running. Ownie Bush was a great factor in the Browns victory. He made three hits and his fielding was brilliant. The Chicago W'hlte Sox are now within two games of the lead. The Sox defeated Cleveland yesterday in a brilliant 3 to 2 game. White did the pitching for the Sox. Indianapolis opens a series with the Night Riders at Louisville today. The outcome of this series will probably decide who will win the A. A. pennant. President Dreyfuss of the Pirates, believes that the race is going to be between his team and the Cubs. He does not figure the Giants to stick to the finish. "New York," he said, "has thirty-eight more games " to play In thirty-five days. As they do not play on Sundays in the East, that means a lot of double-headers for them, and they have only two first-rate pitchers. They have twelve games with Philadelphia, and will be lucky to win half of them. Besides that, they have four games to play with us and four with Chicago, so that more than half their contests are with the first division clubs. On the other hand we have ten more games with St. Louis who have beaten us only two games out of twelve this year. I can not figure the Giants at pennant winners. Chicago is the club that we have to beat." AN AMATEUR DETECTIVE. Hla Ffrat and Last Experience In Tracing; a Crime. "I never attempted the Sherlock Holmes business ,but once," said Blythe, "and although I ran down the person I was after the results were not at , all pleasant One morning I missed a scarfpin, a single pearl, worth about $50. I valued it more for its associations than almost anything else I had. I decided to say nothing about it to my wife, because things of that sort always upset her. She suspects the servants and does not hesitate to let them see It Advertising a reward brought no results. One morning nearly two years after the pin was lost I saw it in the window of a pawnshop not three blocks from my borne. I knew the police captain of the precinct and Induced him to send one of his ward men with me to the pawnshop. Matters were soon explained. I was able to prove my ownership of the pin. The pawnbroker consulted his books. "That pin," he said, "was brought here by a woman who regularly pawns things here on commission. It is a business, the same as shopping on commission. Many persons, especially women, who find it necessary to raise a little money in a hurry, are afraid to go In person to the pawnshop. "He gave me the name and address of the woman who pawned my pin, and I looked her up. ?I don't want to make any trouble for you,' I said, 'but that pin was stolen. Just take me to the person who gave it to you to pawn, and you'll not be the loser. "She complied willingly. She said she was sent for by a woman who had read her advertisement and was given the pin to pawn in the usual course of business. She got $20 for it. and after J deducting her commission had paid the

money over to her customer and given her the ticket. She went to the pawnshop nearest the house to save time. Not until we were at my own doorstep did I realize where the woman was taking me. 'Do you mean to say that you got the pin in this house?' I inquired. "Certainly, she replied. It was given to me by a tall woman with red hair. If Bhe still lives here I should know her in a minute. That will do, I said. 'Here is $5 for your trouble. I shall be obliged by your not mentioning this incident to anybody.' "The woman she had described was my wife. We had a bad quarter of an hour. She had pawned the pin to get money for a rascalllon of a brother, who had since fled to Canada. He stole the ticket from ber and had evidently Iwmw nisblo to it bcoxehe skinned. s

KITCHENER Op KA1STHOUM.

Sporting World Secretary John H. Bruce of the tional baseball commission announced that $99,600 has been turned over to him to be paid to minor league club owners for drafted players. Of this Bum $47,555 already has been forwarded to Secretary Farrell of the National associations, the remainder of it being held until the commission decides whether a number of drafts are to be allowed. He also has received $68,500 for players purchased and recalled under options, making a total of $116,050 that has been turned over to minor league club owners. As a number of the purchases were not made through the medium of the commission, the harvest reaped by the minor magnates will greatly exceed this amount. One fault with McAleer's team is he carries too many percherons. No fewer than eight of the Browns are In the steam roller class when it comes to speed. "Roaring Bill" Hassamer, one-time ball player, sold the Sox yesterday a lot of raffle tickets. When Bill went away the Sox looked at the tickets and found the raffle was billed to take place on Aug. 19th. Tex Richard, the Nevada fight promoter who was unable to dig up the $30,000 purse for the finish fight between, Joe Gans and Battling Nelson on Labor day afternoon at Ely, Nev., now comes forward with a statement to the effect that he has Jack Johnson's agreement to fight Tommy Burns at his club in Ely, Nev., when Johnson and Burns return to this country. Tex had better forget about pulling off any fight after his recent blowup. mental torture for mouths because sh was afraid to tell me. That experienc cured me of a hankering for the detec tive business." New York Times. A Few Palindromes. "It is a fascinating occupation," sai a philologist, "to search the language for palindromes. A palindrome Is a word that reads the same backward as forward. Rotator, for instance, is a palindrome. Several hundreds of these strange words are tabulated, and new ones are continually turning up in the English tongue. If you can find one send it to the Palindrome society of New York. "I can rattle off extempore a dozen or two palindromes. Thus: "Bab, refer, bib, Anna", tot, bob, peep, civic, toot, dad, madam, deed, pup, deified, sees, dewed, tat, did, shahs, eve, reviver, ewe, rotator, gog, pop, gig, gag, redder, level, noon, Otto, sexes." Philadelphia Bulletin. Gambetta and Napoleon's Portrait. When Gambetta, accompanied by Jules Favre, arrived in the hall of the Hotel de Ville, where he was officially to read the proclamation of the third French republic, the crowd which followed the two deputies caught sight of a fine portrait of Napoleon III. hanging on a wall. They promptly took it down and were about to smash it to pieces when Gambetta intervened. Turning the portrait to the wall, he said: "My friends, 'we have put up with the original for twenty years. Let us be content today to turn his face to the wall. It Is all he deserves." Why. ThcnT "Did you finish your shopping today, my dear?" asks the model husband. "Yes, I think so," answers the trusting wife. "You think "so?" "Yes. I don't know, though. You see, I went to get my hat and there were so many and all of them so pretty that I got five of them." "Five? Why did you do that?" "I really I must have lost my head." "In that case, why get a hat at all?" Chicago Tribune. Rales For Writers. Frederick W.

IMPORTANCE OF CARBON.

'Wltnoat It or Its Eoalvaleat Wo Coald Have !To Aro Ufkt. The electric arc light as now so commonly used is produced by the passage of a powerful electric current between the slightly separated ends of a pair of carbon rods, or carbons, about twelve Inches long and from three-eighths to one-half inch in diameter, placed vertically end to end in the lamp. The lamp mechanism is so constructed that when no current is passing the upper carbon, which is always made the positive one, rests upon the lower by the action of gravity, but as soon as the electric current is established the carbons are automatically separated about an eighth of an inch, thus forming a gap of Ligh resistance in the electric circuit, across which the current is forced, resulting in the production of intense heat. The ends of the carbons are quickly heated to brilliant incan descence, and by the burning action of ! the air are maintained in the form of blunt points. As the carbons burn j away, the lamp mechanism feeds the! upper one downward just fast enough to maintain the proper separation. The carbons are not heated equally, the upper or positive one being much the hotter. A small cup shaped cavity or j "crater," ordinarily less tnan an eigntn of nn inch in diameter, is formed in its end, the glowing concave surface of which emits the greater part of the total light. In lights of the usual site, something like half a horsepower of energy is concentrated in this little crater, and its temperature is limited only by the vaporization of the carbon. Carbon being the most refractory substance known, the temperature of the crater is the highest yet produced artificially and ranks next to that of the sun. It is fortunate that nature has provided us with such a substance as carbon, combining, as it does, the highest resistance to heat with the necessary electrical conductivity. Without carbon or an equivalent and none Is known we could have no arc light. Charles F. Brush In Atlantic. STOP IT. Boasting of what you can do Instead of doing it. Thinking that life Is a grind and not worth living. Exaggerating and making mountains out of molehills. Talking continually about yourself and your affairs. Saying unkind things about acquaintances and friends. Thinking that all the good chances and opportunities are gone by. Thinking of yourself to the exclusion of everything and every one else. Speculating as to what you would do In some one else's place and do your best in your own. Gazing idly into the future and dreaming about it Instead of making the most of the present. Longing for the good things that others have instead of going to work and earning them for yourself. Success. A Horricaae. The terrors of the deep were perhaps never more thrlllingly set forth than in the description by a young lady who last year made her first trip abroad. She kept a dlary.'Very much, says the New York Herald, like that of Mark Twain, when for seven days he recorded the fact that be "got up, washed and went to breakfast." There was one important exception. When she crossed the channel the experience was so trying that she felt Impelled to describe It. "I firmly resolved to stay on deck, she wrote, "although the tempest Increased to such a frightful hurricane that It was only with the greatest difficulty that I could hold up my parasol." . A Wonderful Memory. Hortensius, the Roman orator, could repeat word fo word a book he had just read. On one occasion Le made a wager with one Sienna and to win it went to an auction, remrined all day and in the evening gave a list of all the p-ticles sold, the prices paid for them and the names of the purchasers. The accuracy of his memory was in this case attested by the auctioneer's clerk, who followed the recapitulation with his book and found that in no case had the man of wonderful memory made a single mistake. Maaners. Manners are of more importance than laws. In a great measure the laws depend on them. The law touches us but here and there and now and then. Manners are what vex or soothe, corrupt or purify, exalt or debase, barbarize or refine us, by a constant, steady, uniform, insensible operation, like that of the air we breathe. They give their whole color to our lives. According to their quality they aid morals, they supply them or they totally destroy them. Burke. A Had Reeollectloa. First Barber Whew!

Indian LrKtuiI ot the Forniallsa of Ihia Ir'anmoas Moaataia. The quaint Indiau legend of the formation of Pike's jieak is as follows: "At the beginning of all thing the lesser s-plrits possessed the earth and dwelt near the banks of the great river. They hud created a race of men to be their servauts, but these men were far superior to the present inhabitants of the earth and made 'endless trouble for their creators. Therefore the lesser spirits resolved to destroy mankind and the earth itself, so they caused the great river to rise until it burst its banks and overwhelmed everything. They themselves took each a lar;;e portion of the best of the earth; that they might create a new world i and a quantity of maize, which had been their particular food, aud return ed to heaven. Arriving at the gate ot heaven, wh.ch is at the end of the plains, where the sky and mountains meet, they were told that they could not bring siu-h burdens of earth into heaven. Accordingly they dropped them all then aud there. These failing masses made a great heap on the top ' of the world which extended far j above the waters, and this Is the origin j of Pike's peak, which U thus shown to be directly under the gate of heaven. (It was formerly twice as high as now, but lost its summit, as is told in another legend.) "The rock masses upon it and all about show that they have been dropped from the sky. The variety and extent of the mineral wealth in the region prove that the earth's choicest materials are deposited there. And still, as the constellations move across the heavens and vanish above the mountain summits we may see the spirits rise from the great river and pass to the gate of heaven. The falling stars are their falling burdens or the dropping grains of maize." CULTIVATE TACT. It Tom Do Not Possess It, Strive to Acqalro It. I want it recognized that tact should be taught continuously, seriously, thoroughly; that it should be placed In the forefront of education and take its natural first place side by side with the catechism, writes Prank Danby in Black and White. A friend of mine recently suffering under a great bereavement was In the receipt of innumerable letters and telegrams from friends, acquaintances and the general public. Out of the 1,140 of such communications two only hit the right note. Among pages of sentimental and religious commonplace two messages alone touched the heart. "He was a man I loved. I am with you In your grief," was one. The other ran: "You have lost your best paL He was mine too. God help us both." Both of them epitomized the senders men with great hearts. But the acquisition of tact by some o. the other sympathizers would have supplied Its place. Again, paying an afternoon visit recently, my hostess, wanting a book to which our conversation had referred, rang the bell. Within two minutes the servant appeared with tea, and the following colloquy occurred: "Who told you to bring tear "Please, ma'am, I thought that was what you rang for." "Well, please don't think. I hired you to answer the belli It wasn't the signal for a guessing competition. When I want you to do that I'll supply the kitchen with a copy of a newspaper." I was not surprised to hear this lady changed her servants frequently. la Darkest London. In his book, "Child Slaves of Great Britain," Robert H. Sherard writes: There are thousands of our poor children In London starving not on account of the poverty of the parents, but by reason of the Ignorance and sloth of the mothers. They know nothing of cookery; they wish to know nothing. They do not care for the trouble. In every London slum you will find a fried fish shop or a cooked meat shop or a grocer who sells cheese and pickles and potted things. It fa much easier and 'less worriting-llke' to send the children out with coppers for a penn'orth of fish and chips or a hit of cheese and pickles than to cook anything for them." Tocatloa ana AToeatlosu "Avocation" Is one of those unfortunate words that art con. .antly being used in a wrong sense. Strictly speaking, it refers to something that calls a man away from the ordinary occupation of his daily life.

STEEL MINE CABS ARE BEING USED Some Anthracite Mines ot Pennsylvania Trying Out Their Fitness. NOT TRIED LONG ENOUGH. NO VERIDCT CAN BE PASSED ORIGINAL COST TWICE AS MUCH AS THAT OF COMMON WOODEN CAR. Steel mine cars are coming Into us in some of the anthracite coal mines in Pennsylvania. They have not as yet been tested sufficiently long to Justify any verdict as to their permanent fitness. It is hoped tioj will effect much needed saving in underground transportation. One of the most retent installations is at tho colliery of the Clear Spring Coal 'Co., at West Pittston, Pa., where 30 of the new cars have been put In operation. As mules have given away to compressed air and electric locomotives, so it now seems necessary, in the opinion of some mining experts, that the wooden car shall be replaced by one more capable of standing the increasing wear nd tear, as the hauls from the working places are continually becoming longer. A steel car of the type adopted at the Pittston colliery costs cbout twice as much as the average wooden car. Though subject to less ordinary wear, when a steel car Is damaged, the cost of repairing it is high. In common with all the Improvements which tbo anthracite mining companies have undertaken in the last few years, the steel cars are introduced not so much with the idea of reducins the cost of mining as of preventing any increased cost. The exhaustion of the more accessible veins, together with the higher prices of labor and materials, fcas increased the expense of every phase of mining. And. as the companies have to mine deeper nd deeper for coal, the tendency will be for the cott to continue to increase. The real value of steel cars, as compared with wooden cars, cannot be decided until they have been operated throughout a long period. It is all a question of whether the decrease in the expense of maintenance will be sufficient to offset the increase iu the original cost LIGHTSHIPS TO WHLOIG TRIP Voyage Will Be More Perilous Than Fleet's. New York, Sept. 5. Lying off Tompklnsville are three new lightships which the government is about to send around through the Straits of Magellan to Seattle, for use on the Pacific coast Their voyage will be much more of a risk than the recent trip of the battleship fleet, because, while the lightships go under their own steam, they are not built for cruising. and the engines are virtually but auxiliary ones.
