The MATCH AT THE UNION COURSE.
Forfeit and Disappointment.

Forfeit and disappointment. tH1
The weather yesterday, so propitious for any out
door excitement failed 10 entice the many devotees
OF the exhiaratng sport Of horse racing to this pop
uar resort the fraternity at present being most nu.
merousy represented at the grand trotting 'Jubee"
now being held at the renowned Narraganset Park,
three miles from Providence, in the prominent little
State Of Rhode Island.
The occasion for the grand preparations madeyes-
terday was the projected trial OF the racing merits
OF the chestnut fliy Ida Scneper, the property Of
William Turnbul Tecenty returned from Europe),
and Charles RObnsons bay colt Dexter Bradford.
The lilly was some six months the elder; but this
advantage was one not availed of by her owner,
who having viewed the 'polnts" OF the colt, deter
assembled. to pay forfeit In preference to what he
deemed foregone conclusion-the defeat OF his "a
vOrite, the dlly.
The track, perhaps, was never in better condition
for contest OF this KIND and the race was one
which, being the most prominent advertised for this
course IN some time, promised much interest.
However, doomed all are to disappointment, this
proved no exception to the universal rule, and the
spectators were compelled to turn away with vague
suppOsitiOns OF ''whaI might have been."
The surroundings were genial, inviting and en-
cOuraging; and the small assemblage numbering
about 100 so comprised none but the most ardent
adherents Of the ''race who remained, from force
or indifference, from the grand centre Of horsed0m,
NarraganSet Park.
About hatpast three O'Clock P. NJ the few cor
teges were seen stragglngly leaving the grounds.
followed by the dusty pedestrians, and by four
O'Clock r. M. the track was entirely cleared Of
every animate object.
Thus ended the race; and except. perhaps, in the
chestnut and the bay are determined upon in the
prejudices OF their several admirers.

Reported Horrible Negro Outrage.

following story
Yesterday morning one OF those terrible outrages
winch I'm other parts OF the country where the peo-
Pile have less respect for the law is usually avenged
by the people lynching the perpetrator took place
near the northern boundary OF the city. 10 appears
that three OF the daughters OF clergyman
formerly wei known as the superintendent OF the
contraband camp at Twelfth and q streets and more
recently clerk IN the statistical bureau OF the Trea
sury Department have since the establishment OF
Howard University been pursuing their studies there,
with other white pupils, and residing at Kendall
Green Barracks. They usually took Boundary street
for their road leaving at about Fourth street. and
passing up the lane TO Mr.. Moore's house to a by
path directly To the University building. Yesterday
they left home about eight O'Clock and took the
usual road chatting cheerfully as usual, until they
reached the lane before mentioned. back Of the Old
Catholic burial ground, when a stalwart and very
black negro who had been lying IN ambush, sprang
out before them, and seizng the Oldest one, well
grown young lady OF about seventeen years, threw
her down. Her sisters, aged about thirteen and fifteen
years went TO her assistance and with sticks and
stones beat him to make HIM desist from his helllsh
purpose and added their screams 70 those Of the vic
tim 10 bring some one TO the rescue but they did
not succeed IN driving nim OF until he had com
mtted crime for which II Is To be hoped he will be
yet made to suffer- The young ladies, who are well
grown aud look much older than they really are,
made their way back to their fathers residence,
and he immediately gave information TO
Lieutenant johnson, who with some OF
his men went IN search of inc mlscreant,
but have thus far been unable 10 arrest him. al
though they have a clue which may yet lead to his
arrest and conviction.
In addition TO the above account of the Sidr
may add there Is some difficulty In getting at the
real sacts of the case The police authorities admit
the story of the outrage to be substantially true in
all but that the negro succeeded In accomplishing
the outrage. That part. they say is not true. He
was frightened away before accomplishing the hor.
ribe deed.
