If. Y. Herald-Weather Forecasts.

The Northwestern anti-cyclone has
moved southwardly, with a depression
on Its western side, which will probably
advance over Manitoba to-day, causing a
genepal rise of temperature over the coun-
try. Temperature was nearly stationary
in the United States yesterday. The
chief minimum reported was 22 degrees,
at Bismarck, D. T.; the chief maximum,
80, at Key West. In this district to-day
partly cloudy to fair weather will prob-
ably prevail, with slight thermal changes
and fresh northwesterly to westerly
winds, followed by higher temperature.
In the Middle States and New England
partly cloudy to fair weather will pre-
vail, with fresh northwesterly to south'
westerly winds, preceded by local rain
near the lakes, and nearly stationary,
followed by higher temperature. On
Saturday in this section and in New
England warmer, lair weather will prob-
ably prevail, with variable winds,
coming southerly; and on Sunday warm-
er, fair weather, followed by rain near
the lake}. _-__,

Errors anIlullur—Inlng's Wild
Pitching does the Business.

The Norwalks went to New llavon
yesterday and played ball with the Yalea.
The score was l'i to -l in favor of Yale.
It was a poor go no and disappointed
many who accompanied the team from
lhl'l city. There was also much regret
expressed when it was learned that Dun-
ning was in the box and that Lord dld
not play. Dunning pitched wild, and as
he has often done in this city. he clung
to his high balls that lost the Norwalks
run ny games two years ago.

in speaking of the game the New
Haven Morning News says:

"The Norwslks and Yale played a very
long, uninteresting and one-sided game
at the Yale field yesterday afternoon. It
was cold and cloudy and 200 spectators
sbivered in the wind. The Norwalka
ba ve been strengthened since they. play-
r-d the New Havens by the addition of
Corcoran and Chadwick of this city, who
were with the W ilkesbarres last season,
and Dunning, who pitched for the Hack-
ett Carhart team when they played Yale.
The additions were not any advantage to
the team yesterday, however. Dunning
was very weak in the box and besides
being very wild was hit quits freely.
Malone of this city, who played first base
for the Norwalks, was not up to his
usual standard and besides playing a
poor fielding game was unusually weak
at the bat, striking out twice and hitting
an easy ball to Bragg the only other time
be was at the bat."

"ELM CITY."

Very Little credence was given to the
report circulated about town yesterday
and the day before that a member of Co.
D. 4th lisg't., C. N. 0., fell overboard
while on the trip to New York and was
drowhed. Tire Scanner. thoroughly
Investigated the matter and learned that
the only facts in the case were the find-
Ing of a derby bat and an umbrella on
the boat. It was supposed that the
rumor was started as a joke. It has
now been settled, however, that the
man who fell from the deck of the
steamer "Elm City" Tuesday night
while she lay at the foot of Thirty-first
street, New York was Bernard Sweeney
of Bridgeport. The hat and umbrella
found on board the boat were identified
yesterday afternoon by his wife as being
his. Word was received from New
York that the body has been recovered.

Ana slsr Obs To-nlght.

The New York Times says Fraulein
Adele aus der Ohe, who is to be heard at
the Opera House this evening in a com-
plete recital is one of the few pupils of
Lirzt that are really entitled to the dis-
tinction the name confers. It was once
the habit of piano students who were
presented to the master and permitted to
play a few minutes in his prmnce to
call themselves his pupils ever afterward;
Fraulein aus der ()he, luckily, stands on
adrfferent footing and has bought the
right to her title by protracted study
under Liszt's guidance. Vigor and en-
durance of a surprising kind were the
conspicuous traits of the debutantc's
playing lMi-I evening, with fluency and
tonal suavity and brilliancy in slighter
proportions. ln response to most en-
thusiastic recalls Fraulein aria der Ohe
came forward after the concerto, and
rendered with unflagging strength Liszt‘s
polonire in E. She is of the stuff of
whrch great artists are made.

 

"Running Wild."

In speaking of Johnny Wild's appear-
ance at the Star theatre, the New York
World gives these facts: The terms
which theatrical managers make with
organizations that are anxious to play at
their houses are often extremely inter-
esting. Johnny Wild's arrangement
with the Star theatre last week confirms
this statement. The Star people were
not quite certain about Mr. Wild. They
knew he was popular, of course, but the
Star is a big house and better people
than the genial Johnny have failed tofill
it. This arrangement was therefore
made, and there is no doubt but that the
management thought it a masterstroks
of diplomacy: The first 1,006 taken in
at tho- box—office were to go to the then,
trs,with 75 per cent. of the second thous-
and. After that Mr.Wild was to receive
75 per cent. of the receipts. Few people
thought that the receipts would amount
to more than $8,000. The delight of
Wild and the disgust of the Star people
when the sum of 37.2“) was counted up
can beimagibed. Of this sum,of course,
“.150 went to Wild and $3,050 to the
theatre.

An Estimate of William ll. Barnum.
(From tbs Worcester Spy.)

He was not a scrupulous or squeamish
politician. He recognized the value of
money in political operations, contrib-
uted liberally of hls own, and obtained
large sums from others, because they
knew it would be used in a business-like
way to accomplish practical results by
means which his ehrewduess and exper-
ience approved. if any political advan-
tage was purchasabls, Mr. Barnum was
In the market. He knew as well as any
man in the party what could be done
with money and how to do it. He did
more than any other man of his time to
degrade and debanch the politics of his
native state. But he was faithful to the
democratic party according to his lights,
and labored forit with unsparing energy
and devotion. During the last presiden-
tial campaign his exertions were greater
than his strength would warrant, and at
its close his successive labors and his dia-
appointmsnt in the result broke down

Washington on Masonry.

George Washington was an enthusias-
tic Mason. Iu a letter to the Rhode ls
land Masons he says: "Being persuaded
that a just appllcation of the principles
on which the Masonic fraternity is
founded must be productive of private
virtue and public prosperity, I shall al—
ways be happy to advance the interest of
the society and to be considered by them
as a deserving brother."
