A Discouraged Sport. This Is the sad story o one of the most thoroughbred sports known to the history of hazards. Ills name was Sullivan, and he bad blue eyes and red hair, with a brogue to match his coloring. John Ilays Ilanimond, the mining engineer, met him in prison la , souiu Africa at tne tloio when Ham mond and other prominent men were I held as captives by the Boers in con j neetion with the Jameson rtid. The I engineer and the Irishman became I well acquainted. " - ' "Probably vou wonder whv I'm here," said Sullivan one day when the thermometer had gone as high as 115 In the 6hade.

Mrs Dierke has been extolled by the Port land press and has been heard so fre quently at the very foremost musical feasts of fhe state, Jiat on the eve of her appearance here, nothing can he said that will add to her reputation as a master of the piano. : While here today Mrs. Dierke is a guest with Mrs. Erla Carlock, who has taken the burden of nrenaratim, Jfor the recital tonight upon her own , shoulders and has been freely com I ; plimented and praised for her effort. , Following the recital an informal re ception will be tendered 'Mrs. Dierke when the audience will be given an opportunity to meet her. - A glance at the program promptly places Mrs. Dierke in a class by her self.

Popular Magazine. Strength of a Czar. A story Is told In St Petersburg which illustrates the phenomenal phys ical strength cf the old czar. At a little statiou not far from the capital the Imperial ' train was delayed for quite a time, and the czar, being hungry, partook of some of the simple food of the buffet. Meanwhile the lit tle daughter of the mayor presented the empress with a bouquet, the flow ers of which were hastily gathered from prlvat hothouses lu the neighbor hood. The stalks being still damp and earthly, the empress visibly hesitated to take the bouquet In her neatly gloved hand. The czar coolly took up one of the heavy pewter plates on the table, and twisting It as if It were paper, made a neat covering for the stalks. There is nothing incredible In the story, suice lue czar uad ueeu kuottu iu utruii a kitchen poker as an ordinary man would a strip of tin. CIRKPljlj I.TEI)E03IIXATIOXAL SERVICE THURSDAY 3I0RMXG.
