National Turf Association.

CLEVELAND, o., May 4-The Boa,d d
of Appeals tor the National Trottng
Association, to-day, heard all the cases
on its docket that were represented by
parties or their attorneys. The most i'm
portsnt was the case of Goldsmith Maid
against the Southern Ohio Fair Associa-
tion, which was decided against the
Maid, the Board holding that purse for
exhibition speed does not constitute a
race.
The application of the jackson, Mich.
igan, Trottiug Club to prevent the pull
ing ofsuch horses ashore has been previ
ouslv declared not to win. The Jackson
Association were told that the true spirit
as well as the letter of rules was against
them, and that the racing law required
the best horse to win. The Board will
probably finish business to morrow.

Smoke Prevention.

Benjamin Purnell, of Birmingham,
Ecgland, has just discovered very sim
pie, ard yet ingenious, mode of securing
the consumption of smoke in steam
boiler furnaces. His invention is spplI-
cable to all steam boilers, and it pro-
vides for boilers consuming their own
smoke, without the aid of any elaborate
apparatus. Just above the fredoor
of the boiler he bores a couple of vir-
cular holes Of about two and half
inches diameter. and inserts two pipes
which run at the top Of the furnace for
about one-third or half its distance A
small ppc connected with the boiler
drives n Jet of steam into each OF the
pipes. which thus creates two strong
draughts of air. This air is raritied by
the steam, and is driven right into the
center OF the flame and smoke from the
furnace, thus precipitatlng the carbon
and preventing its escape in those dense
clouds which cause such nuisance in large
towns

rne Public Debt or Mexieo.

The great nightmare of Mexican ma
tional existence Is her debt the principal
part of which has been practically dis
honored. This debt is divided into two
classes, called the interior and exterior
debt. The latter is for moneys bor-
rowed in London in 1923 and 1924, and,
with unpaid interest, amounted in lS45
to about $56,OOO,O00. Various conven-
tions have been held upon this subject,
and some of the interests paid since that
date, but the exact figures are not at hand.
1t was to collect this money
that England undertook the Mexi-
can invasion with France, until 1t learned
OF the designs Of the French Emperor 70
establish q foreign prince here. This
debt IS not considered Of much CONNER
cal value, The interior debt was con-
tracted in the country partially by the
Viceroys, and since by other govern
ments. 1t also includes adjusted claims
for property used by the French. This
amounts now to little over elk millions.
The government recognizes and tries to
pay it. 1t is receivable for certain public
dues, but can be bought at very depreci.
ated rates. Probably, with unpaid inter.
est, the entire debt OF the Republic
amounts to about $4,000, 900.

THERE is progress even in China. The
latest reports show that q railroad has
been formally opened in spite Of the op-
position of the native authorities, and
that the inventor of telegraphy has actu-
ally been mentioned IN the Pekin Gazette.
This projected railroad-the first in the
Chinese Empires fifteen miles long,
running between Wusung and Shanghai,
and i've miles Of the road have been
completed. This sounds strangely
enough for country that is as
old as the hills and has
population of 30O,0O0,OOO
souls, when our new nation, just celebrat-
ing its first Centennial, and having a
population of S40,OO0,00O, has between
10000 and 10000 miles of railroad, The
resistance of the Chinese to all elements
OF progress has kept them far behind the
japanese, who have shown disposition
20 avail themselves of the advancement
made by other nations and attain civ
ilizstion on plane with the European
and American nations. But now that
there is an entering wedge under the
Chinese wall, perhaps it may betumbled
down completely in course of time.

Down at the place where the workmen
are digging the foundation Of the Third
Ward school house. the workmen dug
up, yesterday, the skeleton of an Indian.
Among the bones were found parts OF the
buffalo robe in which he was buried, and
the scalp.rings of fourteen warriors that
he had taken in battle. The skeleton
was sitting IN an upright position, and
the rude jewelry of his race and time
WAS found on the wrist, finger and arm
bones. MIR. Patrick Welch, the conlrac
tor for the digging job, gave our re-
porter some oi the teeth, beads and other
parlphernalia OF the grave, which are
on exhibition in our local room. Several
women were on the scene taking away
finger and other bones Of the departed
warrior.

A CHICAGO female reformer. who has
happily reached the state of widowhood
has been telling how her husband, during
his lifetime, gave her incessaut trouble
by his refusal to conform ~ the scientific
laws OF bealth, which she was determined
he should follow. In ms habits, and At
his table, he totally disregarded those
grea, principles of hygienic science which
she was always striving to put in practice.
Nei. her her example, nor the arguments,
nor her method of governing the man
sufficed to bring HIM to terms. She did
not procure Divorce from him, but per. :.
severed with him to the end, and failed
TO the last. He died. She now holds
him up us terrible example OF the tate
that awaits such man. But perhaps If
he were to come back. and tell his side OF
the story, We should find out that he
welcomed death, and regarded 1t as less
of An evil than that kind of science to
which be was victim during his life.

A Practical 0hjectioa to Telegraph
Poles.
Rrom the Gal Ifornia snirit of the Times

From the California Spirit OF the Times.
A merchant going home elevated, stag.
gered against q telegraph, pole.
"Beg your pardon" said he, 81 hope
no offeLse. It's rather dark. and the
street is very narrow, you see."
In few minutes he came in contact
with another pole.
Couldn't help it, sir" said he lifting
his hat. II never saw such crooked
lanes as we have here IN this city,
Again he ran afoul of the pole, this time
with force that sent him backward to
the ground.
"Look here, neighbor, you needn't push
q fellow down because he happens to
touch you; the road is as much mine as
yours, and l have as much right here as
you have, old stick-in-the-mud."
He picked himself up and made an
other effort to reach home, but he sOOn
came plump against another pole.
"Shan't make any more apologies"
said he; 'if you get into the middle Of
the street and stand in my way, that's
your lookout, not mine."
Proceeding Oh his journey again, and
becoming angry ana oiZZy, ne seemeu 10
BE- entangled in an inextricable labyrinth
OF telegraph poles, which led him 10
make q general speech.
Gentlemen, you are not doing the
fair thing. You do not give man a
tair chance. You run from one side OF
the street to the other, rightin my way"
Just then he met friend, and taking
him by the band, he said:
"There is procession going along this
street, and every man is drunk; they
have been running agains. me all the
way from the club. l knocked one OF
the fellows down, one of the fellows
knocked me down, and tLen lot OF them
got around me, and 1 believe they would
have licked me within an inch OF my life

us go out of this street before the pro.
cession comes back, for they are all

Well Hidden.

From the White Hall IN. W Times.
A lady of this place was quitely sitting
at her sewing, one day last week, when
she observed neighbor approaching the
house, whom she did not care to see
She quickly dropped her work and
stepped into closet, 20 as not to be 'at
home" to her caller. The closet door
closed with spring, and imprisoned the
lady. The caller finding the lady absent,
did not stop, but when the lady
tried to open the door, she dis
covered, alas! that she was q
prisoner, The lady realized that
she was consuming the air very fast, yet
she was powerless TO release herself from
her prison. She remained in the closet
about four hours, and when her husband
returned home at supper time he missed
his wife, but thought nothing about It,
Having occasion to look into the closet,
he discovered his wife lying iEsensible on
the floor He quickly drew her inani-
mate form out, when the air revived her,
and thus WAS prevented what few hours
longer might have proven sad catas.
