WAS BUT
little fiddling at the
post yesterday.
Starter JIatch was
at his beat , which
la speaking volumes
In his behalf , when
It comes to sending
oft a bunch of frac
tious jumpers. Ills
work was even an
Improvement on
that of the Initial day , inasmuch as two
breakaways was the limit for any ono ovent.
In the first tlirco races the horses all getaway
away evenly , and In the two last there ware
but two call-backs In each , So far Colonel
Hatch has executed his trying duties with on
eclat that would turn your Howes and your
Pettlngllls green with envy.
Again , the day was perfect , the track fast ,
the crowd largo and enthusiastic and the run
ning out of sight. There wasn't a lazy race
on the whole card. Kach was full ot snap
and ginger , and the lads rode as If for their
lives. They were all purse races , and owners
and jockeys were out for all the stuff there
was In them.
The betting was good , and the pencllers
correspondingly happy. Considering the
limited time backers have had to acquire
knowledge of form , the talented cohorts suc
ceeded marvelously .well , four favorites going
safely through , and ono well backed second
landing first. Tlio eager speculators ac
cepted ovcryhtlng that came their way , and
It Is safe to say several bank rolls have been
badly crippled In the two days furore.
Much Interest centered In the opening
event , five furlongs , for 3-ycar-olds and up
wards that have not won moro than one
race since May 1. Weight , 110 pounds. 1,11-
llo Loclilel was the fancy ot the talent , and ,
with Jones up , started favorite. Hardly ten
minutes elapsed from the sounding of the
pdst bugle when the field was under way ,
Hatch dropping the flag as the horses came
abreast of his pedestal on a lino. Idle Ioy !
got away In front , and moving from the
outside to the rail In the dash to the six
teenth pole , made the running , with Ed-
mend Connolly hanging at his throat latch
.nearly all the way. Lllllo Loclilel and Coun-
" ell Plal were hotly In their rear , and both
quickly moved In the van , Idle Boy , how
ever , as quickly regaining second as ho had
lost third , Connolly dropping back next to
last , Down tlio stretch they came like
oqulnp tornadoes , the Lily and the Day both
fighting hard under whip and spur. Loclilel
showed first , and under Jones' vigorous rid
ing drew steadily away , winning , used up a
bit , by a halfa length , Idle Hey second ,
Council Plat third.
MOLLIE MADE A NICE HUN.
The second race , half a mile , went to J.
J. Ryan's bird of a little marc , Molllo
Penny , after a thrilling tight to the winning
post with Sam Jones , condition telling on
the old selling plater at the end , and dc-
cldlng"tho chase by a head In Miss Penny's
favor. Uoss' big roan gelding , Dick Tiger ,
is also deserving of a word of credit In this
struggle , for It Is an open question whether
ho did not have a show for first mone.y
*
himself. Coming down to the wire , and no
further than seventy-five yards away , he
was next to the rail , but a scant head or
two behind the leaders , Pinny and Jones ,
and coming good and strong. Right hero
Avery jerked Jones ever almost against
Molllo , who swerved , and the Tiger had to
bo pulled or go Into .the fence. After the
contest Judge Leper called the jockey Into
the stand and Informed him that on a repe
tition ot that sort of work ho would leave
the park , and ho wouldn't have to bs coaxed ,
either. Molllo Penny's race was a credlt-
nblo ono , however , and she ought to morj
than pay her way this year.
In the six furlongs , owners' handicap for
all ages , the big son of Long Taw took his
flrst money at Union Park. Starting fa-
vorlto at 1 to 3 , ho bulged to tlio front In
the flrst few strides , and won about as he
pleased , though through Berger's pulling
him up a trifle previous the rnco looked as
If Ocorgo Mullet , n well worn vet from
JonCs * "stable , had glvsn lit in considerable of
an argument. Maple Leaf was close up for
third , but Ashen ( Imp. ) , a well backed second
end , was a bad last.
Five ran In the fourth race , four and one-

halt furlongs , Molllo Penny , tha mascot
ot the Ryan string , tho. favorite. Molllo
broke In front and went an , Jock Kodgers
warmly' after liar , and Karl third , with
IHick Walker coming' f/ist. / On the turn
McKnlRht attempted a rush with Penny ,
nnd tried to shake off the whole lot behind
him , and led Into the stretch by nearly two
lengths. Hero Neal piled both lash and
ntllleto to the big bay gelding and took after
tha Ryan mare , catching her a hundred
yards from home. From there on It was
a horse rnco ncod for sore ryes , and while
Mollla won It WAS by reason of her almost
supernatural effort , nnd the tremendous en
ergy of her wlso jock. Iluck Walker man
aged to slinlte third out of the muts , but
fully three lengths away from Rodgers.
A quartet only answered the call to the
post for the last race , flve and n halt fur
longs. The flag fell with Mike. Flynn and
Marmadukc In front , Doley Drown next and
Henry II bringing up the rear. Mike and
Marmaduko held their places until rounding
the flrst turn , when Doley Urown and Henry
R both moved up , Doley taking the lead
Into the stretch. From there she drew away
and won handily by two lengths , Henry
R and Marmadukc fighting It out for second
place , which Henry secured by a neck.

Ono of the most agreeable features about
Colonel Hatch's very successful meeting Is
the fact that the moneys In each race are
paid Immediately upon the announcement of
the weights up. Every winner has received
his money at the wire , nnd the owners arc
all jubilant and enthusiastic over the Inno
vation. There will be four new stables In
today , and several additional early next
week. This afternoon's card will be one of
the very best of the event , consisting as It
will ot flvp events , with an average of seven
starters In each , and being on the Saturday
half holiday , a tremendous outpouring
should bo In attendance In attestation to
their appreciation of the best sport ever
furnished this section of the country. Dur
ing tlio Intermission between the first and
second race today 0. P. Hendershot of this
city will exhibit In the field before the
stands a-half dozen of the best broken saddle
horses In the west.

CINCINNATI , May 25. The second day
of Latbnla's spring meeting had no Inter
esting feature. It was an off day , with no
stake , races on the card , and about 2,000
people "came out to speculate on the re
sults. The twenty-six books did a fair
business and came out ahead. It was a
poor day for favorites , only one winning ,
Myrtle In the last race at prohibitive odas.

two outsiders romped home with the money.

ST. LOUIS , May 25. Today's oard af. the
fair grounds was not particularly InterestIng -
Ing , and as a consequence the attendance
was small , the greater attractions of to
morrow's events having some effect , no
doubt. The speculation today was rather
light , but of what there was the talent had
the best , throe favorites and one well
backed second choice landing the money.
The weather was clear and cool and the

History of the KiciitH Lending Up to tliu
AriTHtK for I.lbol.
WILMINGTON , Del. , May 25. H. D. Mar
tin of Minneapolis , a member of the execu
tive board of the Knights of Labor , who was
arrested on a charge of malicious libel the
other day In Scranton , Is In the city. The
facts leading up to the arrest are thus stated
by Mr. Martin. Just after the election of
the general officers last November , ex-Gen
eral Master Workman I'owdorly wrote to
General Master Workman Sovereign saying
ho had sent certain property of the order to
the general ofilce , enumerating the same ,
and concluded by saying that , with the ex
ception of the lettera bearing the seals cf
district , state and local assemblies now in
his ofilce , there was no other property of the
older In his possession. This at the time
was considered satisfactory. Later I'ow-
deily and Mr , A. W. Wright brought suit
against the order for money alleged to be due
them. At the recent meeting of the general
executive board In Chicago it was decided
that It was time that Powderly turned over
everything belonging to the. order. It was
also decided that It was time that the
"secret work" of the "philosophers stone , "
which Powdorly received from Uriah
Stephens , should be given to Sovereign and
Hayes. Both Sovereign and Hayes had re
ceived letters from members of HIP order
who had earned the honor nnd wished It con
ferred upon them. A notice had been
Issued to organizers that the general master
workman would confer the tltlo upon those
who did certain work. Hayes was In
structed to ask Powderly to send him this
'secret work and did so. Powderly replied
with an unqualified refusal. The general
executive board , through Hayes , then ordered
Powderly to restore the property within n
specified time under penalty of standing ex
pelled. This is what led to the trouble be
tween Martin and Powderly. Further ar
rests on both sides are expected , tis Powderly
Is determined to remain In the older as long
as ho has an Inch of fighting ground left and
the new ofllclal seems equally determined to
finish him.

Many stout people- have drawn comfort
from the treatment of Prof. Schwcnlnger ,
the famous physician of Prince Bismarck.
He has reduced many a "puffy" cheek and
brought smiles of satisfaction to many a
Jolly face. At the request of friends and
physicians ho recently wrote nn artlclo on
his "anti-fat cure , " which gives in concise
terms the main facts about his treatment.
After recommending daily massage and
bathing the professor says :
"As to the kind of massage to be used In
the case of stout persons , It may be said In
Konornl that tlio harder the massage of the
fatty parts the bettor the effects. Thu
pain often felt In the beginning of
such a treatment will disappear an
a rule In a few days , and what was a dis
comfort becomes later a pleasure. As to
diet , the principal nourishment should bo
meat of any kind , hot or cold , and fat or
Iran fish , oystera , cavlaro , lobsters , crabs ,
sausages , eggs , cheese , etc. Next to be
recommended are broad , white or brown ;
fruit , preserves , spinach , asparagus , c.ib-
bagcs , sauerkraut , cucumbers and green
salads. As to drinks , water , soda water ,
fruit and lemon syrups , white \\Ine > s and
cider are to bo recommended. Herrinns
and smoked flounders may bo substituted
for oysters , caviare , lobsters and flno fish ,
sausages for meat , cabbage for asparagus ,
prunes for preserves all articles which can
be purchased cheaply.

STRONGEST AGREEMENT EVER FRAMED

AVlinl lln DOP.I During Tliuno
llitril Tlmet.
CHICAOO , May 25. Tlicro ta but one
opinion on the agreement of western presi
dents for the maintenance of freight rates ,
It Is universally conceded that to all appear
ances It Is the strongest railroad agreement
over drafted. Its one clement of strength Is
that the presidents themselves are the only
ofllclals who can reduce rates. If any line
Indulges In rate cutting the entire responsi
bility must be borne by Us president , for
nothing Is more certain than that no subordi
nate oinclnl will now manipulate rates with
out direct orders so to do ,
Under present conditions of traffic and
railroad finances , no president can stand the
responsibility of demoralizing rates. All
boards of directors are fully aroused to the
necessity of their roads earning every cent
possible , and any of them would bo moro
than apt to demand the resignation of a pres
ident who allowed rates to bo cut on his
line. Eastern financial institutions arc
deeply Interested In the welfare of western
roads , and In the end are able to dlctatu
the policy ot nine-tenths of the lines. Those
Interests are now unanimously In f.ivor of
strictly maintained rates , and their pursu
strings would scarcely bo unloosed to help
out a road which got Itself Into dinicultlcs
by rate cutting.
Some of the presidents go so far as to
say their form of agreement Is the one
which must ultimately bo adopted as the
best method of maintaining rates. One
man for each line assumes the cntlro re
sponsibility for the maintenance of rates.
With easy times and abundant earnings
the plan would undoubtedly develop weak
spots. Under present circumstances the
agreement Is believed to be stronger than
any pool. Not one president believes the
agreement will be broken until trafllc a-
sumes Its old proportions. It Is only
necessary , however , for the presidents to re
main In line to preserve the present situa
tion indefinitely. No rate agreement ever
formed will bo as closely watched.

General Passenger and Ticket Agent Qoorgo
II. Ileafford of the Chicago , Milwaukee & St.
Paul arrived In Omaha from the west yester
day , accompanied by Mrs. Ileafford. They
went east last night.
Speaking of the emigrant situation which
has Dtlrred the railroad world as no other
railroad proposition for a decade , the well
known passenger director of the Milwaukee
said : "It Is a blessed relief to know that
the Third ward business , as It Is called In
railroad parlance , has been llnally settled.
The proposition last made by the Union
Pacific Is eminently fair , yielding somewhat
of the California business to other lines , but
retaining control of the Colorado business.
It was a good natural fight all the way
through , all the roads making mutual conces
sions. The last proposition of the Union
Pacific contemplated taking one-third of the
business , dividing up the other two-thirds
between the various roads. The agree
ment becomes effective Juno 1 , 1S94 , and
everybody hopes it will bo lasting.
"As to the railroad situation generally It
looks exceedingly blue. There U little erne
no business being done and I cannot sec
any signs of a betterment , but wo have to
keep our courage up and Jolly ourselves with
tlio belief that better times are coming. "

A striking example of the Instinct of ma

nt the .imo tltno a curious Incident , win
witnessed by scores of people nt WIs-
tiuhlckon station , nonr Philadelphia , recently ,
A sleek-looking cow , with a happy-go-luckj
calf at her side , wandered upon the rallroaS
tracks just as a train pulled up at the depot.
The cow got across the track ahead of the
engine , but her offspring , with the reck
lessness of youth and curiosity of Inexperi
ence , lingered to dispute thu path. The
engineer crowded air on his brakes , but the
calf disappeared beneath llio cowcatcher.
Everybody looked for veal cutlets , but as tha
locomotive slowed up and stopped the calf
calmly stosd up under th * Lo lor between tlio
driving wheels. The cow heard the bleat of
alarm and caught sight of her calf. She tin-
hesitatingly attacked the big Iron horse and
vainly endeavored to horn It off the track ,
bawling angrily the while. A newsboy , after
a great deal of maneuvering , managed to
push the calf botwron the driving wheels
and the cow and calf moved leisurely oft as
though nothing had happened.
A Tin In Flirt.
The teacher In geography was putting the
class through a few slmplA tests , says tlio
Detroit Free Press.
"On which sldo of the earth Is the north
polo ? " she Inquired ,
"On the north side , " came the unanimous
answer.
"On which sldo Is the south polo ? "
"On the south side. "
"Now , on which sldo are most people ? "
This was a poser and nobody answered.
Finally a very young scholar held up his
hand.
"I know , " ho said hesitatingly , ai It the
excess of his knowledge was too much for
him.

"Good for you , " said the teacher encour
agingly ; "tell the class on which sldo the
most people are ? "
"On the outHlde , " piped the youngster ;
nnd whatever answer the teacher had In her
mind was lost In the shulfic.

Tim Deadly Draught
Rev. James J. Kane , chaplain of the
Brooklyn navy yard , said In a recent lec
ture that the death of Admiral Farrngut
was duo to the selfishness of a woman.
The admiral and his wife were coming from
California , when a woman occupying a seat
In front of them on the ear opened a win
dow. Admiral Farrngut was III , and the
strong draught of wind which blew directly
upon him chilled him. Mrs. Furrngut asked
the woman courteously If she would not
kindly close the window , as Itvas annoy
ing to her husband , Thu woman snapped
out : "No , I won't clohe the window , I
don't care If It does unnoy him. I am not
going to smother for him. " Admiral Fnrra-
gut thus caught a severe cold , which .10-
uulted In his death. A few days before the
end came he said : "If I dlu that woman
will be held accountable. "

It Itched and burned and I commenced doctorIng -
