He WAS A RAcER.-One day last
week, says the Holton Nec,, a young
man, apparently q boy, dressed rather
roughly and riding an old looking
horse, stopped at Wetmore to rest and
get dinner and feed his horse. Upon
Inquiry. he said he was going to the
Homestead region. Some of the sports
In the town had been training their
horses for racing. They, more for
amusement than anything elsc, ban.
tered the "homesteader" for a ace
for a purse Of $500. After considera-
BILE talk and bluster. the stranger con-
cluded to run his horse. The time
came to run, tho old coat WAS pulled
of, and 10! a scarlet jacket was there.
No sooner did the horse see the red
jacket than he pricked up his ears, and
it required three men to hold him
while the saddle was being adjusted
and the rider mounted. 1t Is only
necessary to add that the money was
won by the "homesteader," leaving
the Wctmore chaps waiting for the
next. The same game was played BY
the same fellow at Seneca.

BIoodhounds

We notice, says the Grass Valley
Union, 1t Is stated In the papers that
Wells, Fargo & Co. have imported
bloodhounds for the purpose Of track
ing stage and express robbers. The
bloodhound may do the work very
we'll but il not half 30 efficient in fol-
lowing a trail and In finding n ''plant'
as IL the black and tan fox hound,
when the latter has been trained to
the work. Over two years ago we
suggested that trained hounds should
be used In this State for the purpose OF
chasing and capturing criminals. Ev-
cry county should own n pack Of such
hounds. They would ave much eX.
pense and they are the best detectives
In tho world, for they are thoroughly
honest. A pack Of hounds trained TO
follow a human Is as certain to over
take a flying criminal, when once they
get on his scent, as fate Itself.

Or the Intentions Of our Govern
ment regarding Cuba, q Washington
dispatch Of yesterday says, that there
Is official authority for the statement
that while the present naval prepar-
ations do not mean war against Cubs
aud Spain, they are significant Of the
determination Of this Government to
protect American interests at any haz-
ard, and to prevent In the future such
massacres as those which followed the
capture OF the virginius. As nothing
effective can be depended upon from
the Spanish Government, notwith-
standing Its friendly feeling toward the
United States. it has been determined
hereafter to meet all questions prac-
tically as they arise. instead Of depend
ing on Spanish officials for the trans
mission of communications from our
consuls, either by letter or by tel
egraph. Our naval officers will be In
structed to inquire diligently and
closely into the condition Of the affairs
Of the island and promptly report the
facts to the proper department. Our
Government Is now waiting to hear
what the Spanish Government will do
In response to u protest against the
outrage perpetrated against the victims

ciety stimulate trade in strange places
and in extraordinary things. II there is
anything person ut fashionable New
York party would own, or at least only
owe his tailor for. it would be, one would
suppose, his dress coat. This supposi-
tlon is. however. not at all necessarily
correct one There are several estub.
lishments in New York where ''dress
coats for balls and weddings" are for
hire. and pantaloons and waistcoats are
sub-let when desired. The price ranges
from 81 SO to So 80 q night. How did
these coats fall into the hands of the
dealers2 Somebody has been Interview
lng-so low has this occupation got-one
of these men. Said he:
"Oh, we pick them up in great many
different ways. A good part Of them
nro mishts, made by some fashionable
tailor Tor some customer, who was not
satisfied with tho article furnished him.
ln fact, all our coats have been made to
order. Then there are coats which have
been commanded and never called for.
coats whose should be owners cannot INV
the price asked for them, and coats
coming from every source and for eyery
conceivable reason. Most of those We
keep for hire have been made at a cost
Of $40 or 800"
"Can 1 ask what class of people use
your coats?"
"All classes, sir. Very many of them
go up to Fifth avenue. You see, there
are mighty few gentlemen who can af-
ford to buy an expensive dress coat to
wear only two or three times a season,
so they just keep their money in their
pocket. and when they nre invited out
como to us to be suited. Then, again,
il costs good deal to be always up with
the fashions, and rs they wish to dress
stylishly, thatis another reason why thoy
should patronize u.s."
Tho history of ono coat is given.
Bought by an actor, given to stnge
carpenter, it fell into the hands Of the
dealers. On Monday, it went to a
French ball; on Tuesday, to party in
the Sixth ward; on Wednesday, to din
ner party in Madison avenne, where it
graced tho manly form of o waiter;
on Thursday, an undertaken wore it to a

ThR IbsAL SH Cnn1sr's PEnsos. The

Z ThR IDsAL SF CHnIsr's PERSON. The
Christ Of painters is bue-eyed and gold
en-haired, and such one never existed
save in their imagination. A blonde in
the race OF Syrian Jews is unknown. He
was brnn (since We have no word in our
Language which describes O man with
dark hair and eyes, and olive com.
piexion) OF that race. There are pious
people who have recourse to O miracle to
make him blonde, with whom it is use-
less to argue. Generally, the stoutest
defenders OF his divinity believe that in
taking on himself man 8 nature he sub
lected himself TO the laws which govern
is, sGa that DO thus Inherited the cha
racteristios OF the race from which he
sprung. Leonardo, Guido. Raphael and
other masters. created their Christ, re-.
gardiess of historical requirements, and
invested him with an ideal character
which he never possessed, according to
their idea OF the beautiful in art. This
model, once imposed, has since been
perpetrated by all painters, because they
think blue eyes more spiritual than dark,
and golden hair more God-like than
black. They had an idea, too, that the
Jewish type of face was ignoble, which
may have had some foundation from the
degradation to which the race was forced
for so many centuries by persecuting
Christians, and they thus had their pre-.
JUDGES against investing the Saviour
With the traits OF people whom they
despised. But the Jew of Syria in the
day OF Jesus was, before his persecution
aud consequent debasement, perhaps
the eGnhi Of the man OF any other race
in polnt OF natural advantages. There
are Syrian Jews now, in isolated hnbita-
tIons in Palestine, who are remarkable
for their handsome traits.

A correspondent gives to the Hop.
kinsville New Era the following as a
speech made by Gen. Jackson, when ne
was yet poor backwoods lawyer in Ten
nessee and unknown to fame: "He was
employed to prosecute negro for the
murder of another in fit of jealousy,
and in his speech to the jury was the
following paragraph: No more shall the
voice OF the poor murdered man be
heard in the songs of tho merry corn
huskings; no more shall he pluck the
snowy cotton boil; no more ohall the
forest resound with the echoes of his
hunting horn, as with his dogs he chased
the possum md the coon; no moro shall
his nimble feet keep time to the music
of the banjo, as he patted juba and cut
the pigeon-wiug. That voice, once SO
Joyful, is now hushed in death; those
limbs. onco 80 agile, are now rigid and
still. His body now lies upon the blood
stained turf, with his big toe pointing mp
to the blue nrched vault of Heayen.''

fifty youthful Chinese women arrived Mt

steamer Colorado The news spread
like wild-fire among the youthful male
Cinnamon i'll the Chinese quarter, and,
attired in their best clothes, they flocked
to tho wharf to witness tho exhiluruling
spectacle of tho landing Of tho Chinese
damsels. After the custom house iu-
spectors had examined tho now arrivals.
tho huttering bevy were transferred in
express wagons to Jackson street, where
they were to be sold to those desiring
wife. The prospect of getting wives
was what caused the agitation among
the Chinese young men on the occasion,
and doubtless they have all been happily
suited Gre this.
