His Great Ride Yesterday - Fifty
Miles In Two Hours, Five Minutes,
Twenty Seconds.
Yesterday afternoon, Chan. Retickar, the
celebrated rider, performed his extraordina-
ry feat of riding fifty miles in two hours
and half. A special tran left the Short
Line depot for the Greenland Race Course
at two o'clocS, carrying large number of
persons TO the grounds. Many went by
CARRIAGES and hacks, and there were doubt
less between 400 and 500 persons present
when the race commenced.
Messrs. Jim Graves, Jim Hall, Geo. Shad-
burn and Geo. Lindenberger were appoint
ed judges. Betting was lively, and large
Mount Of money changed hands. After
the first mile heat was run, there were
plenty of offers to bet that Reticker would
accomplishing feat proposed, but no takers.
The betting was entirely on The time that
each mile would be- run in. At about a
quarter after three the judges took their
stand, and Reticksr soon after appeared in
bis costume, ready for action.
At twenty-eight minutes past three the
word was given, and off he started for his
first mile. Each of the horses was brought
out in turn as he arrived at the end oil a
mile, but, after the first ten miles had been
&C -omplished, three of the horses were
taken away, not being in good condition,
leaving only seven horses to run the re-
naming forty miles.
The following is the time of each mile
and the loss occurred by changing of horses:

Some 500 Down with the Fever.
NEW ORLEANS, Sept. 17.-Picayune
special from Sh: eveport dated yesterday
says: The number of new cases to-day is
less than for the several preceding days,
and the number of intermen:s fell from 80
yesterday to % to-day. 1t is not thought
however that there is any abatement, but
that the material for the fever to work on
is Considerably diminished. The Shreve-
port Times says:
"The mortality is beyond precedent, and
it looks as though but comparatively few
would get well. Thus far very few have
got about, while some liDger along between
lire and death. In some few instances
whole families have been swept out Of ex-
istence in the short Jace of one week. The
sudden change in the weather last Sunday
night, sent scores to their beds, which &C
counts for the large number Of interments
in the last day or two. In the language of
the New Orleans physicians, they dropped
off like sheep dying of the rot. Medical
treatment of the most skillful kind, does
not appear to do any good ia great many
cases, while in many others the temporary
reli f afforded, is quickly followed by death.
Our stores are all closed and all our dwell
ings are hospitals. In fact Shreveport is
one great hospital, and one great charnel
house, and the Times merely a death re-
cord"
The same journal says: The number of
interments since the 1st of September sums
up 226. The number Of sick is varionsly
from 500 to 300.

WHAT THE GARTER DOES.

Here is something from the Book of Beau
ty that is strictly local here or anywhere
else. Women should read it:
"a handsome leg is rarity, we had al
most said an impossibility, among American
women. The reason or this is the place
where they wear the garters. No French
woman, no English woman of cultivation,
nowadays wears her carriers below he-
knees. 1t is ruinous to the shape of the calf.
More than this, il has serious consequences
of another kind. The principal vein of the
Leg, vena saphrenabrevis, RUS just beneath
the skin until il nearly reaches the knee,
when 1t sinks beneath the muscles. Now,
IL this is obslructed 1t its largest point by a
tight garter, the blood is checked in Its re-
urn to the heart, the feet are EASILY chilled,
aud more liable to disease; the other veins
of the leg are swollen into hard, blue knots;
become vsricose, as it is called, and often
bresk, forming obstinate ulcers. This is
picture which physician sees rs ariy every
day. With the garter fastened above ne
knee all this pain and deformity is avoided,
but IL is still better to wear no garter at al,
and TO suspend the stockings by tapes around
The waist. In this case, however, a well ut
tiug stocking is needed"

Total time of running hour, 81 min
utes, 81 seconds. Time lost in changing
horses L minutes 4S9d seconds.
Total time of race, including changing
hours, minutes, 20 seconds.
Reticker thus accomplished the race "a
minutes and 40 seconds quicker than he
proposed to do it.
Mr.. Reticker states that the time accom-
plished is the fastest on record in the United
States. This is greatly due to the horses,
all of which are Kentucky thoroughbreds.
This is the first race that the young man
ever rode with them, having purchased them
in the Bluegrass region around Lexington
about two weeks ago.
The following are the horses:
Sunfower, year old mare.
Humming Bird, small bay mare, 4 years
old.
Miss Nora, bay FLY, 2 years old.
Flight, sorrel FLY, 8 years old.
Sorrel geldiDg by Australian, years old.
Sorrel gelding by Bonnie Lsddie, years
old.
Sorrel gelding, George, BY the night Of st.
George.
SoTrel stallion, years old, by War Dance
dan Wagner mare.
Sorrel geidlng, years olu, Dy Donnle
Lsddie.
Bay mare, Miss PIGGY.
Some of the above are by War Dance,
and others from Wagner, by the Knight Of
st. George.
Mr.. Reticker used the old-fashioned Cal
ifornia Spanish saddle in riding, and also
has peculiar bride. The track was some
what heavy and was very dusty, the dust
flying into the riders throat, compelling
him to drink water at times in order to
moisten his lips, otherwise he was in good
condition and felt as well after the race was
over as when it began.
Mr.. Reticker expects to get race here
soon with two Canadian boys for fifty miles,
each of them to ride t = enty-fve miles and
change horses whenever they please, while
he ia to ride the entire length and to change
horses at every mile. He proposes race
with them for any sum ranging from $lO,-
600 to 100000. During the four years
past be has probably won $4,000, but OF
course his expenses have been extremely
heavy. He has only lost one race OF So, 600.

WASHINGTON, Sept. l5.-The appoint
ment of Alex. Shepherd, Vice President of
the Board Of Public Works, as Governor of
this District is received with intense dssat-
isfsction by nearly every one who is indie
pendent of the District ring. Added to the
/ almost universal indignation is deep feel
ing of humiliation, quite as general, caused
by this new evidence of the utter HELPLESS
ness OF the citizens TO arrest the reckless
destruction of their property, or to prevent
further increase of the present enormous
load of unjust, illegal end despotic taxes.
Mr.. Blake, appointed in Shepherds place
on the Board of Public Works, is President
of city bank, quiet and most respectable
gentleman, Of high standing In the commu.
nifty, but quite stranger to public life.
There is great strife among the district
papers to excel each other in the support Of
Shepherds appointment as Governor. The
Chronicle this morning announced thst the
editor would accompany the new Governor
to the place where he would take the oath
Of Office. This evening the Star prints g
string of verses inscribed to "The Peoples
Choice" and an editorial informs its readers
that special correspondents stationed here
are abusing Shepherd, in accordance with
orders from the editors of the papers en-
ploying them. Friends of the ring now
claim that it will be able to carry any
measures it may determine on, against all
opposition. Affairs in the district grow
worse every day, but the ring now deems
itself improbable. Property holders are
greatly depressed, and are now losing hope
Of their being able to enlist Congress in
their defense.
MOsby and the Governments Appoint
ments.
The Warrenton Iader confirms the re-
port that Col. Mosby recently wrote letters
to the President and Postmaster General
Cresswell, explanatory of his position in the
present canvass in Virginia, stating that if
because of patronage bestowed upon him
in the distribution of certain officers q diff
ferent course was expected on bis part, it
would be gratifying to him to have said sp-
pointments revoked, and says that in con-
firmation Of this presumption that they
were satisfactory to the parties addressed,we
state that when a radical delegation, headed
by Platt, waited on Postmaster General
Cresswell this week, and demanded the re-
moval of appointees made through the in
luence o. Mosby, Cresswell refused to com.
ply.
