THE FASTEST TYNE ON
RECORD.
THE MYSTIC PARK RAcEa.

The sensation of the day was TIE
appearance of Goldsmith Maid
and Lucy" on the track. Both are
handsome bays. "Lucy" little the
darker of the two, aud marked on
the forehead with n white blaze.
Mr.. Hickok drove Lucy" while old
Mr.. Doodle took care of the maid. i"
As every race in which tho two trot
are prearranged and are merely ex-
hibitions, there was no pool selling
on the winner. There was some
betting on the time, even money be-
ing offered against 2:l9. Lucy"
took the pole. At the first score the
"Maid" skipped under the wire, and
they were called back. The second
time the word was given with the
Maid half length ahead. "Lu-
cy" passed her once, but lost ground.
and the "Maid" passed the quarter
in 36, the half in 1:10. and came in
trotting handsomely in 2:2i, Lucy"
half a length behind.
PREPARING ron THE GREAT HEAT.
Before the second heat Mr. Wright
was seen experimenting the cleaning
of the track with scrapers and drags.
The knowing ones began TO exchange
significant looks and to expect some
thing startling On the blackboard.
This impression was heightened when,
after scoring once, Doble asked the
Judges to give him the word whatever
was the relative position Of the horses.
HicSok assented, aud it became per-
fectl,' evident that Jackman had de-
termined TO take advantage of tho
fine day and track aud to give his un-
eaualified ,1are chance to repeat
her Milwaukee record. The next
score the Maid lad oil Of two lengths
start, Hickok nodded and the word
was given. The dis.aace was pre-
served to the quarter-pole when the
watches said OBJ and the most ig-
norant observer could sec that the
pace was tremendous.
THE FIRST HALF-MILE IL :O7.
At the half, 1:07, the "Afaid" was
four lengths ahead, and she came in
trotting magniicently, having made
only one or two little skips in the
mile. When the time, 2:164 was an-
nounced. incredulity gave way TO be-
lief, and the widest excitement pre-
vailed. everybody seemed TO feel
personal pride in the achievement
and sort of part ownership in the
mare, from having witnessed her
greatest performance. Barney Jack
man, Goldsmith Maids" owner. re-
ceived congratulations from every
side, while Wright was hardly less
pleased himself. Shouts OF" "Where's
Bonner now?" was heard from differ
ent quarters in the crowd. The third
heat was less interesting. Lucy"
led at the start, but the "Maid pull
ed by at the quarter, which was made
in 35, and held half length to the
half mile, which was passed in 40.
The distance was then gradually in
creased to q length or more, and the
Maid" came home in 2:19i.

A KENrUCKY ROMANCE.
A Louisville Apple Girl Turns
out TO be q Countess.

Who among the old habitues OF
Court Palace does not remember the
little girl who, with her well.filled
basket, looked into the offices day by
day, disposing of the choicest fruit to
be met with anywhere in the market !?
We have not forgotten, and never can!
In our minds eye we see her beauti-
full face peeping in at the door; see
the flash of those dark, lustrous eyes
beaming in modest eloquence upon
US; hear the sweet girlish voice artic-
.ulate once more, "Any fruit to-day,
sir? Fine, nice apples; please buy
some"
That apple girl has history; who
has not? You may ask where is the
outcast child or beggar around whom
does not cluster some romance?
Well, Justine Cardoni, who sold
apples around the streets of Louisville
eighteen years ago, has history
Briefly we will write it down:
In Milan, twenty-five years ago,
there lived poet and scholar whom
we will call Rinaldo (but that is not
his name.) He was descendent OF
one of the oldest families in Italy,
dating back to the dark ages, whose
representatives, both as warriors and
statesmen, were second to none in
Europe. Rinaldo was very wealthy
and honorably connected, bearing the
title of Prague, and graduated with
distinguished honors as a professor o.
law. He never practiccd though. but
spent his time in travel and writing
essays on science and philosophy
At the age of twenty-five years he be
came acquainted with Madeline Jose
phine Giaccomo, of Naples, tn,
daughter of half brother to the
King by morganatic marriage. Thil
marriage of Madeline with a priyat,
gentleman gave great umbrage a
court, though children by morganati'
marriages are not recognized as scionl
of royalty, but take only such honor
as belong to the private gentry.
The fruit of this marriage by th'
beautiful Madeline and Rfnaldo was |
daughter born about a year and hal
from the time of their marriage
This child was healthy, robust ant

Novel AMpuTAT1oN. The venera-
Bile town of Plymouth. England, has
q heroine who will doubtless receive
her full need Of that kind of fame
which newspaper paragraphs confer.
She had recently suffered an acci-
dent by which two of her fingers
were permanently bent over the
palm. Averring that rather than be
thus crippled she would loose her
hand altogether, she applied TO a
surgeon to have it amputated. He
refused, and tried to dissuade her
from her silly purpose, but she per-
sisted. and left him to go in search
of a less scrupulous sawbones. This
she found In the form of q railroad
train. and she actually laid her wrist
on the track, and had her hand
crushed off by the wheels Of the cars.

that may be thrown on the situation
between now and the assembling of
the Convention in July. If, at that
time. it appears, as now that we
ought to make no nominations, I shall
favor such action or nonaction. On
the contrary, should it be clear that
we can succeed with our own noni-
nations. why make them. We're

With respect TO the jurors summoned for the

stated. The Marshal is bound from the
nature Of his duty, to select persons who will
strive to fairly judge the guilt or innocence, un-
der the law, Of the defendant on trial. There is
a class Of people, we have reason to believe, who
are not capable of doing this in cases arising un-
der the Enforcement Act, because they deny any
validity or binding force to the Constitutional
Amendments, and hold that it would not only be
juatifAble, but praiseworthy to nulify the pro
visions Of the Enforcement Act, by acquitting
az indicted under it, however clear might be the
proof of their guilt.
