Square Garden Saturday, in every way satis.
fleqthe members of the Association and the
athletes entered, as well. Al Copland's feat in
breaking both the out and indoor records for
the 260-yard hurdle was a splendid per
formance. On Saturday evening, at 14-inch balk-line
billiards, George Slosson made 417 points in
six innings in a practice game an average
of 6BH.
The Acorn Athletlo Club, organized to do

And when Fryoollin reported this conver

U was impossible to obtain any information

"Do people leave things in their rooms? "
interrogativoly repeated Agent Froderiok T.
Keith, of tho Astor Ilouso, to tho query of an
Evknino Wonu reporter. "Voll, I should
say! Guests, you mean. Forget things
when they aro going an ay? Oh, yes, lots of
'cm do."
"Forgot their watches and leavo their
jewels on thoir drcsecr, don't they ?" per
sisted tho curious one, in that frco, social,
intimately acquainted tone which tho mau
of tho world always os-mmes when ho ad
dresses tho everybody's friend and walking
bureau of information who stands behind a
big diamond pin and a hotel clerk's desk.
" Woll um no, not watches and jewels
so much. More frequently they forget to pay
their bills, and in thou- hasto leave their trunks
behind. Canes and umbrellas, gloves, combs
and hair brushes, tooth brushes and the llko,
most often, and nightshirts! Oh, night
shirts bv the dozen.
"They toko 'em off in tho morning and
drop 'em on the bed. Tho chanibormaid
nuts 'om under tho pillow, nicoly folded.
The owner don't stay over another night,
and when ho packs his valise, ho forgets the
n:ght robe."
"And what do you do with nil thoio
thinps?" ponderod tho scribo half aloud.
" Trunks? They aro seized nine times out
of ten to bettlo tbo bill. Wo store them away

ooen 'em- Wo daren't. They are moasley
affairs always. A man who can afford n de
cent outht usually pays his bill. Theso
trunks that aro left are oor, starved, pinched
impoenniosities. Aint worth opening. We
advertiso 'em. after a year or so. and selPein.
But they don't bring anything!"
Sir. Keith's nose wrinkled in disgust at
the notion.
" Who buys 'em at auction ?" asked the re
porter. "Who? Oh, the regulation auction
fiends. Toodles and otlior folks, you kuow.

"And the umbrellas?"

The genial manager's face was tho picture
of mental distress at tbo thought of what
frauds his fellow-men were.

porter, blithely.

" Guests who stop at regular intervals call
for their forgotten night robes on tbeir next

sorted, on bond now. Watchos repose peace

ELEVATED BE, TICKETS FODE CENTS,
An Inducement for Shoppers to Go Down-
town.
Our readers will thank us for calling attention
to what is probably the moat important aggro
Cation of extraordinary values offered by any
dry-goods establishment in many a day. It
would naturally be supposed that this important
special event is downtown, where attractions
for shoppers usually abound, but the supposi
tion is erroneous. It It Btransky's, on One
Hundred and Twenty-fifth street, near Third
avenue, who have thrown down the gauntlet to
the downtown establishments. And in order to
demonstrate the difference between Harlem
bargains and those on Blxth avenue, or on
Fourteenth street. Btransky's will sell Elevated
railroad tickets at four cents, so that people will
beencouraeed to go downtown and compare
prices. This Is carrying tho war into Africa.
A lame circular has been issued by Rtransky
givins in detail some of the trreat bargains se
cured from the various manufacturers in tho
country and to be placed on sale, beginning
Tuebday.
The good things aro in cotton fabrics, dress
goods, silks, lace curtains, portltros, house
keeping linens, jerseys, hosiery, ribbons, din
ner sets, lampH, bric-a-brac; but bow can the
mention of a few things adequately convey tho
right idea when there are so many?
We learn that the great tale at Btransky's be
gins on Tuesday, as it will take plsce then to
completo the preparations. The L railroad
tickets will be put on sale, howeer, to-morrow,
so that people can go downtown and get posted
before Stransky's sale begins. .

where is tbo Albatross ' going now? Here
it is crossing the Atlantlo Ocean obliquely,
and, if it maintain its course, will striko the
coast of Patagonia, and then Terra del
Fnogo, and after this? Will ho head his
course over thePaculo Ocean, or towards the
Continent around the South Pole? Every
thing is possible to this Bobur. At all events,

and if we must perish"
" We shall not do so before we aro avenged,
without having destroyed this machine and
all on board."
The two colleagues had worked themselves
up t J the highest pitch of fury. Sinpe it was
necessary, they were resolved to sacrifico
themselves to destroy the inventor and his
works. In a short time there would be no
one left alive to tell the story of the wonder
ful air-ship, the king of aerial locomotion.
Notwithstanding the fact that tho idea had
buried itself deeply into their minds tlioy
had not yet thought of the means to execute
their design.
How were they to do it? By secreting an
explosive ongine under the deck and blow
ing the air-ship up ? In that caso it would bo
neceskary to gain access to the ammunition
room. Fortunately, Frycollln knew nothing
of these projects. At the thought of the
" Albatross " exploding in the air he would
have denounced his master. July 23d loud

Virgins st the entrance to Magellan Btralt.
At that timo of the year, at the Mth parallel,
night lasted almost eighteen hours, and the
temperature frequently fell to six or seven
degrees below zero. The "Albatross," in
stead of turning off to the south, followed
the windings of the strait as if wishing to

Fryoollin performed tho duties of assistant -fnl
cook. To what uoint was the "Albatross" "Vllfl
headlnc ? Did llobur dare to venture in the fflll
depth of Winter over the southern seas wash- SI
ing the pole ? Would the chemical agents of - ul
his liattenoa prove strons enough to resist "Mill
congelation ? Thut llobur would attempt to 4jH
clear the iole during tho warm season the 'tHH
two colleagues well knew, but to do so, sur- IbHI
rounded by the continual night of the Ant. 9RI

The 21th of July the captain held frequent 'SH
consultations with his foreman. At times h 'mI
and George Kerns consulted the barometer, SiM
not only to gain ilea of their height, but to .vBEl
notice the approaching state of the weather. HI
Eorae'hing of importance was transpiring. JbhI
Uncle Prudeut also noticed that llobur 3
took an Inventory of tho provision stores cm WM
board and of the supplies for the engines of the nH
propulsive and suspensive machines. This '"'jH
seemed to him an indication of an early re- M
turn. 8H
" A return V said Philip Evans. "What ."3D
for?" M
"To the place where Robur revletuals hi JB
air-ship," replied Uncle Prudent. 3B
"That ought to be some lonely island la (jM
the Pacific, peopled by scoundrels worthy ol gH
thsti chief." 1
' ' Exactly so, Phil. I believe that now be TWm
