Lrun.-wick went down before Fernan- A ; n a again yesterday by a score of 3 to 0 ])< spite the whitewash,* it was a game r 11 played and worth seeing. The fea were the fielding of Harper. Bruns- K s second baseman, whose work was c-od*e, and the long three-base hit to *. ruer field fence made by Byers, Fer i mdina’s catcher in the eighth inning. Wolfe, who pitched for Brunswick, no* only pitched well, but fielded his positive -plendidly, while Bankston put up the me steady and clever work that won fi i him the game of the day before. Brunswick was again first at the bat and Ballantyne, who heads the baiting list, made his usual safe hit, but Wolfe, who followed, went out at first, a performance that was duplicated by* Villineau, whll* Harper retired the side by a foul to the catcher. Fe nandina started in to get runs at cnee and managed io get two before be ing retired. Butler hit safe, to left, an 1 Brunson put one like it to e nter. Byers went out on a bent. Buisse was sate at first. Butler scored, Brunson was run di wn between third and home, and ilin.-e also scored on a bad throw home by Garritt. Moslov mode a hit and cr cl and the but was thrown out at home. Brunswick in the n<xt inning Garrett and Holland struck out, and Kaphan went out on a liner to Buisse. Fernandina had a l inger run for her money; Morgan rapp'd out a bounder that Harper coulhn't reach and made two bases on It. but died there, being put out by Harp er on a very pretty play. McGiffin struck out, and though Bankston got to ftist cn bails he got no further, for the side w-as rclred by Butler with a pop fly to the pitcher. In the third Inning only one Bruns wick man, Phillips, reached first. For Fernandina both Brunson and Byers were put out at first, the letter by a really phenomenal left hand stop of a hot grounder by Harper. Buisse was safe at first owing to a had throw of Ballan tyne’s. With Mosley at the bat, the side went out by 'Buisse’s being caught out at second. In the fourth there was a pretty dou ble pley. Villineeu hit safe to right and had Just started for second when Harper, in an attempt to bunt put the. ball di rectly In the pitcher’s hands, who threw’ Villineau out at first. Garrett made the third out. For Fernandina Wiggins got safe to first, Morgan went out on n long fly to Holland, while McGiffin also got to first. Wiggins was thrown out at the plate, and the inning w\as ended when Ranks-ton was thrown out at first by Gar rett, who made a fine running stop of a hot grounder. In the fifth again Brunswick went out in one-two-three order, and the other side also went out without accomplishing anything in the run-getting line. In the rr'Xt inning Brunswick made her nearest approach to scoring. Phillips hit to right center and made two bases. Ballantyne went out on a pop fly to first, while Wolfe made first on an easy grounder to the pitcher, on which Phillips was thrown out at third. Villineau rapped out a cafe one to right, and Harper followed with a good one to center, on w’hich he made first, but on w’hieh Wolfe was thrown out at the plate. In the seventh inning there were only three men up on each stde. In this in ning. though, occurred 4he only kick that marred the otherwise pleasant game. It came from Brunswick on a decision call ing Garrett out at third. The specta tors ihought tha.t Brunswick had a kick coming and sided with her. Again in the eighth Brunswick's three men went out in> short order; but for Fernandina, Byers, the first man- up. rap ped The hall to the center field fence for three bases, and romped home on the throw’ in of Buisse’s long fly out to cen ter. Mosley put a liner in Wolfe's hands that waa too hot to let go, and Wiggins went out on a grounder to short. In the ninth, likewise, Brunswick's men went out in. one.tw’o, three order, and the game went to their opponents, without the last half of the inning being played. The game was well played and was witnessed by quite a large number of spectators, though not as many as might have been expected. The line-up of the teams was the same as that of the day before, with the excep tion of Phillips of the Brunswick team. Hooks, who was to pitch for Fernandina, was unable to do so on account of the blow’ on the mouth that he received in the first day’s practice. The score by Innings is; Brunswick 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 o—o Fernandina 2 0 0 0 0 0 0 1 x—3 Hendley and Ballantye will he Bruns wick’s battery to-day, while for Fernan dina Hooks, if well, will be in the box.

The Morning News recently quoted the criticisms of a number of cotton factors on the monthly weather bulletin report of the cotton crop. The bulletin, it was assumed, was a r port of the weather bu reau, and was so considered by cotton men generally. Observer Beyer received a letter from the department yesterlay r feriir.g to the Interview, and calling at tention to the fact that the bulletin in stead of being a report of the weather bureau, was the momhly report of the statistician of the Department of Agri culture. The weather bureau and the di vision of statistics cf the Department of Agriculture are entirely distinct. LOST VIOLIN RECOVERED. Patient Search for Stolen Strmll vnrin* Rewarded. From the New York Times. Old violins nearly always have histo ries. Few of these records have more of romance in them than that of a Stradiv arius recovered yesterday. It is worth $5.- 000. One n an came to his death, one was sentenced to a year in the penitentiary, and a woman has grieved for five years on account of ihis rare instrument. J. Bott of 374 West Thirty-second street reported to the police March 31, 1895, that a Stiadivarius violin worth sev eral thousand dollars had been stolen from his house. He said that he had but a short lime before commissioned Victor Flechter, a dealer in musical instruments at 23 Union square, to negotiate with Signor Nicollnl, Mme. Patti’s husband, for the sale of the violin. Signor Nicolini offered a check for $5,- 000 for the instrument just as he was about to sail for Europe. Dealer Flechter carried the check to Bott, who declined it. He said he would not accept a check under the circumstances. Flechter was so disgusted that he returned the Stradlva rius to its owner, and asked to be ab solved from any further connection with the matter. It was believed that the in cdent was closed. Not so, however, for S gnor Nicolini had no sooner reached home than he wrote to Mr. Flechter. He renewed his offer, and said he would make the payment in any form required. Mr. Flechter went to the Bott home to see what could be done. Mr. Bott decid ed to accept the offer. He went to his cabinet for the instrument. He came out a moment later, pale as death. He sank in a swoon into a chair. His Stradiva rius had been stolen. The police on June 26, 1895, arrested Mr. Flechter on the charge of having stolen the instrument. He was indicted by the grand jury. A jury convicted him of the theft. Recorder Goff on May 22, 1896, sen tenced the dealer to one year in the pen itentiary. Sentence was suspended pend ing an appeal. Since that time Flechter has been out on bail. Mr. Bott worried so much over his loss that his health was undermined and he died. The widow has been a frequent caller at police headquarters. Capt. McClusky was In his office yester day when Flechter called. The dealer was so excited that he could hardly stand. "At last; at last!" he exclaimed. "Have you found It?” asked the chief of detectives eagerly. "It’s over in Brooklyn,” Flechter told him. He then told of how a friend of his, James G. Tarr. a violin maker of 294 Atlantic avenue, had a few days before dropped in to tell him of a marvelous old violin that could be bought over his way. He said Mrs. Amelia Springer of 355 Jay street, who had a small tailor supply shop at 43 Smith street, had the instrument. "Go and see it! It's a marvel." Flechter had been fooled so many times that he was not Inclined to bother. But, despite himself, he could not forget his friend’s enthusiastic request to “go and see it." He finally did. Mrs. Springer readily allowed him to see the instrument. He was almost certain at the first glance that it was the lost instrument for which he was In danger of becoming a felon. To make sure he tried it. That removed all doubts. Capt. McClusky called in Detective Ser geant Samuel Price and told him to inves tigate. Detective Price looked up the records of the Flechter trial. He then went with Flechter to Mrs. Springer’s house. He was introduced as Mr. San ders. who had lots of money and a pas sion for rare violins. After a thorough ex amination of the instrument he was con vinced that it was the stolen Strad. He so informed Mrs. Springer, and. revealing his identity, took the instrument to police headquarters. Mrs. Springer appears to have dome into possession of the violin innocently. She said tailor who had sometimes made small cash purchases at her shop and whom she had dealt with for per haps ten years, called one day about five years ago nd told her of n friend of his, a widow, in sore distress. The widow was alleged to have just buried her husband, a musician in tile orchestra of a New York theater. He said she wanted to sell her husband's violin, a rare instrument, She would take S3O for it. Mrs. Springer consulted with her son. who is a musician, and he advised her to risk a purchase. She paid the S3O and the violin was given to her. Her son at once recognized its merits, hut never believed it was a Strad ivarlus. He thought it was an old French Instrument. Detective Price and Mr. Flechter are convinced that they have the stolen violin beyond any responsible doubt. Two prin cipal marks are a chipped corner, which has been glued on, and a peculiar mark made by the wearing of the bow. There are a number of smaller marks Fle-eMer was so delighted over his vindi cation that at times he talked incoherent ly Had he been allowed he would have crushed the violin in his fond embrace. Word was sent to Mrs. Bott of the re covery of the violin. She said she would coil lit lattice heudquartere this morning to Identify the Instrunfent. No arrests have been made. The police are con vinced that Mrs. Springer Is innocent of any wrong In the case. If the violin Is accepted by Mrs. Bott F'echter will at once have his counsel go Into .-ourt and ask for his discharge. Tetter— so t lire, So Pay.

Kitchener’* Great White Donkey and Asses of AlcoKar il’Ete. From the English Illustrated Magazine. Probably the most famous donkey in the world at the present day is Ned, the well known animal which acts in the capacity of water raiser at the celebrated old well at Carisbrooke Castle, in the Isle of Wight. How many thousands of people, rich and poor, old and young, have fed and petted Ned during the past twenty three years it would be quite impossible to tell. But it may be regarded as certain that no other donkey in our age has had so much favor and petting from all sorts and conditions of men. Americans who come to see the old castle are always among Ned’s greatest admirers, and more than one would gladly have taken the celebrated ass back with him to the states had if been possible. Ned has lived at Carisbrooke nearly all his life, though he was born at Sandown. Every one who has watched him set to work to tread’ the wheefl—that great wheel w’hieh draws up the water from the well —know’s how sagaciously he carries out his task. The well is 160 feet deep and has a history of over 750 years. Fame has suddenly come to a w’hlte Arabian ass whfch, two years ago. de spite his then renown, did not anticipate such. He was. in his earlier days, the property of an Arabian sheik, and was at that time noted. not only for his color, being nearly white, but also for his un usual size. Now he has grow'n, with ad vancing age. until he has attained the notable hight of about 12 hands, almost an unknown hight hitherto for a donkey. The Arab sffeik took part against the English and Egyptian troops at the battle of Atbara, two years- ago. and his donkev was captured. But he was well treated, and was brought by his captors under the notice of Lord Kitchener. His Lordship was much struck by the color and size of the animal, just ns the creature’s for mer Arab friends had been, and at once ordered the ess to be well attended to, so that might be offered as a present to Her Majesty the Queen. White donkeys have been quite the rage in Paris for the past few months, ever since the famous performance at the Al cazar d’Eto. This cafe ehantant has dis tinctly made a mark during the past sea son by its relays of donkey surprises; The players w’ould sit in the stalls in their cloaks, and would then sudddenly and often unexpectedly pass right through the large and dheering audience as they made their way to the stage. The great est scene of enthusiasm, however, occur red when about a dozen of them conceiv ed the idea of riding up the aisles of the celebrated cafe ehantant with dazzling jewels and ornaments, in short skirts, with large picture hats, and seated on donkeys. The sensation this scene cre ated in Paris had not died away when the city was still more agitated by see ing Mile. Lise Fleuron singing her song on the stage as she sat on the hack of a donkey, which had been her pet for some time, and which was in glittering har ness and flower-bedecked for the great event. Thus this white pet donkey of “la belle Fleuron’’within a short time became the talk of Paris, and is now almost as Celebrated among the frequenters of the French cafes chantants as its well-known mistress. Indeed, it is questionable which of the pair get the greatest reception be fore and after the performance, the pet donkey or its mistress. The four donkeys which have been em ployed for some years hv the Baroness Rurdett-Coutts as a team to draw her smaller carriage are fairly well known to Londoners who live out Highgate way. This Is probably the onl> nse in this country where a Indy of high rank has driven with such tontn regularly, and so the animals have gained unique no toriety. They are finely matched, both in hight. age, and breeding. GIRL CARRIES THE MAIL. Former Brooklyn Resident Hns n Rente in Arizona. From the Philadelphia Record. Mbs Sarah M. Burks Is probably the only woman mall carrier In the West, and her route Is one of the most desolate conceivable. Fiom S'. Johns to Jimtown, Ariz., she travels twice a week, covering a distance of 208 miles, as the towns are fifty-two miles apart The intervening country is practically a wi derness, the settlers being few and far b tween. It would be difficult to Imagine a more uninviting r gion than that traversed by Ml a Burks. What tiny str-ams are found there are poisoned with alkali. Navajo Indians and ic aslonally an Apache are aimewtiat plentiful, but white men sel dom go there and then only to get the gold, silver and copper. Nothing In the way of vegetation can aruw there.

Narrow Escape of the Rrlg Arkatlin, it Derelict—Boarding the Aban doned Vessel—A Search and Its Re sult—The Message at the Masthead. Not Deciphered Till Dawn. From the New York Comm rcial Adver . tiser. Tr e gtoup of sailors in the shipping of fice were stacking and di cussing iheir chances of getting berths soon when an old sailor who sat near a window read ing threw his-newspaper aside and grunt ed; “That isn't wond rful; saw’ something worse ihan that my elf ’ Exp anat O's fo lowed. The mw’spaper contain'd an account of a ship at sea sig nalling to another that was passing “Docor wanted;'" th n when the aske 1 for help was on the way th si-tr.u s were changed to r ad: ‘ Dead ’’ The old sailor, after pointing out the news item, said: “Twenty years ago 1 mat aboard the big Arka da, haling from Boston. In the early part of the year we left port with a mixed cago for Valpa raiso. We had a good run down and turn ed the Hern in tine shape. Then we start ed up the oh<r side of the South Ameri can continent. We were w.thin three days’ easy sailing of our destination when the thing l referred to happened. It was along about the mi Idle of the night. I had the deck and was taking things easy as the wild was light, the moon full and the sea calm. “I was leaning over the port rail when cne of the W’aich ciles out: ‘Ship dead ahead, sir, an' showin' no lights.’ I look ed and sure enough there was a two masted schooner, with only her mains’l set, right across our bows. We sheered off. but it was a close shave. We passed so close under the s-hooner's* stern that we could see the full length of her deck. There was not a soul on it. I yelled ’schooner ahoy!’ but got no answer. “As soon as we w r ere clear I sent for the old man arc! he ordered the brig hove to and a boat lower* and. 'See what the hell alls her. Mr. Martin.’ he says to me. The schooner was not more than half a mile away, full In the. moonlight V\V rowed up to her s>ide and I stood up and hailed her. No answer. The name on her stern was Anna D. B’ack. Anoth er stroke or two of the oars and I was able to clutch her anchor chains and I pulled myself on board. "No cm* met me. and I couldn’t see no one about. It gave me a sort of chill. I glanced aloft and saw that everything was safe there. All her spars were in tact. The forces’l. Jibs and top-s’ls were furled The mains’l had two reefs in it. The one peculiar thing that struck me vtfas that the boom was made fast, as if to prevent it from swlng.ng under a charge of wind. I went o the compan ionway and called down, but got no an swer. Then I asked my two men to come on deck with me. They made our boat fast and joined me. It mad° me fee! easier to have two human beings at rny side. "We rummaged around in the empty fo'c’sle; found a lantern and lit it. Then we looked about. The bunks were empty but everything was in confusion; the deck was filthy. We hurried out into the open air to escape the stench. Then we went down the companionway into the cabin. We found the captain’s desk, and by look ing over his papers we found that the schooner hailed from New Orleans and was bound for Auckland, in ballast. How she got so for out of her course was a puzzle. The cabin, like the fo’c’sle, showed that something had been wrong, but we could not guess what. Back to the deck we went, and on the way to the side we peered into the galley. On the deck, with his head in his arm. was a man. He was dead, hut he had not been dead long. He appeared to have been very sick. I turned him over, searched his clothes, but found nothing. He was evidently one of the crew. When we reached the brig and the cap tain had heard our story he decided to stand by until daylight so as to make a thorough search of the schooner. We were in no particular hurry, and I have an idea the old man thought It might be to his financial advantage not to let the schooner get too far out of sight. My watch having expired I turned in. “An hour after daybreak the old man sent for me. “ ‘Mr. Martin,’ he said, ‘did you notice any signals on that schooner when you boarded her?’ / “ ‘No, sir,’ says I. “ ‘Look at them now,’ says the old man. “At the mainmast I saw’ several of the flags of the international signal code. “What’s the signal?” I asked the old man, seeing that he held the code book. “ ‘Send a doctor. Yellow’ fever,’ says the old man. The sailor stopped his story, Allied his pipe, lit it and continued: “For several days I was one of the sickest men you ever saw, but luckily it was only imagination. I thought, though, that I had yellow fever.” “What became of the schooner?” “No one knows. You may bet we lost all interest in her when we had decipher ed the message spelled by those multi colored flags.” “It Cnred "Graybeard broke up rheumatism on me," says Mr. Chas. Thomas, the Jew eler on Whitaker street. "And put me in better health than I have enjoyed In a long time." Take Graybeard Pills for that dizzy feeling—Lost appetite, and follow It up with a bottle of Graybeard. It is all you need.
