The Fastest Team in the World.

New YORK, Sept. 11.-At the ter
mination OF the colt race, MIR. Will
liam Vanderbilt drove his famous
team composed of Small Hopes and
Little Mac OH the track and told the
judges that after jogging around the
course he would speed them a mile.
Moving slowly around to the draw
gate. Mr.. Vanderbilt came forward
and all the gentlemen present who
possessed timers started them when
the team reached the line. The team
went round the turn and down the
bill at great rate of speed, reaching
the quarter poll in 34a seconds. They
went along the back stretch without a
break, reaching the half mile pole in
l:lO9 and then came up the bill un-
der the rocks in a gradual incline of
over two hundred yards, with beau
tiful action to the three-quarter pole
in 40. They turned into the stretch
without skip or break, and Mr.. Van
derbilt with steady hand guided to
the goal, which they reached in 2 %,
the fastest time ever trotted by team.
The performance elicted a great deal
ofen thusiasm, and when Mr.. Wander
bilt was apprised of the time he ex-
pressed great astonishment and was
the recipient of hearty congratula-
tions. The performance of the team
will be better appreciated when it is
known that the weight drawn by
them was over $40 pounds. At Sara
toga. last month, Mr.. Vanderbilt said
that the first time he drove his team
over Fleetwood track this fall. he
would trot them in 2 :25 or better, and
the realization of his desire brought
out the enthusiasm for the horse,
which he has inherited from the Com |
modore, his father.

Relief without a Doctor,

Though We would by no means be under
stood as deprecating, but rather as recon-
mending, professional aid in disease, there
are multitudes of instances when IL is neith-
er necessary or easy to obtain. A family
provided with comprehensive household
specific like Hostetter's Stomach Bitters. is
possessed of a medicinal resource adequate
TO most emergencies in which medical ad-
vice would be otherwise needful. That ster-
ling tonic and corrective invariably RENE
dies, and is authoritatively recommended
for debility, indigestion, liver disorder, an
irregular habit of body, urinary and uterine
troubles, incipient rheumatism and gout,
and many other ailments of frequent occur
renee. 1t eradicates and prevents intermit-
tent and remittent fevers, relieves mental
dispondency, checks premature decay, and
invigorates the nervous and muscular tis-
sues. Sleep. digestion and appetite are pro-
NOTED by it, and it is extremely useful In
overcoming the effects of exhaustion and
exposure. sept

State Fair Items.

We CLEAN as follows from the State
Journal:
The State Fair which is to open mex
week in this city is concentrating
all the attention of the western coun.
try.
We understand the board of manag.
ers of the State Fair have prohibited
the selling of pools on the fail
grounds.
The recent order of the State Fair
managers prohibiting the selling OF
pools will have the effect of keeping
away from the city large mum ber of
sporting men. We presume the pools
will re sold in the city, or outside of
the grounds.
A private letter from a citizen of
Butler county, who has spent ten days
travelling in Seward, York and Butler
counties, says: 1.-The whole country
is taking an unusual interest in the
State Fair this year, and you can tell
your people that they may look for
the largest throng of people ever gath
cred together in any city or town in
beautiful Nebraska"
We heard an Omaha gentleman say
yesterday, that the coming State Fair
would be more largely attended than
any Fair ever held in the State.
There are no drones at the fair
grounds now. The place Is alive with
carpenters, teamsters and teams and
laboring men, all busily engaged in
their various occupations. The steam
engine was taken to the grounds yes

A Dead Shot.

The town of st. Elmo, Ill, was re-
Gently thrown into intense excitement
and deep mourning by tramp or des.
perado who passed through that place
The facts regarding the matter as re-
ported are that on the morning of the
18th inst. Mr.. John Scoles went TO
his house from which be and his fam
lily had been absent for some days, and
on entering he discovered that it had
been robbed of several articles of val
ue, and noticed that the depredations
were of recent occurrence. This fact
induced him to institute immediate
search for the burglars. After look
ing carefully through the house and
outhouses, he went into the yard, in
the rear, and discovered a man going
rapidly through the field and looking
back as though he was making his es-
cape. Mr. Scoles mounted horse that
was near and started in pursuit. When
within forty or fifty yards of the par
ty, he (Scoles) ordered him to "halt.'
This he did, but drawing revolver,
with GOODNESS and deadly aim shot his
pursuer three times, once through the
head and twice through the body, kill.
ing him almost instantly, the deceas-
ed living only long enough to tell the
facts as here given. The news
spread like wildfire, and in less than
twenty-five minutes there were hun
dred men with pistols, rifles, and
shot-guns, mounted on horseback and
wild with excitement, flying after the
fast escaping fugitive. Although he
ran with nearly the swiftness of a
deer. he was soon overtaken by the
horsemen. As soon as the party was
in hailing distance the leader, Mr.
Frank Barnes, called out to him,
halt. or you are dead man." With
this the villain turned, and, with q re-
volver in each hand, began firing, the
first shot killing Mr.. Barnes instantly
and the second, with his left hand
morIally wouDding Frank Wiseman.
Changing again to the right hand, he
killed horse and with yell worthy
of demon rushed directly upon the
horsemen, making them scatter in all
directions. Not satisfied with seeing
the party retreat. he took deliberate
aim at the hindmost horsemau,
wounding the animal so badly that he
fell to the ground, leaving his rider to
make his escape on foot.
He is without doubt dead shot, as
all three of the men hit were shot
through the head. The desperate
soon gained the heavy brush and tim
Der and made his escape. His name
was not ascertained. He is described
as man about So years old, low, heavy
set, dark complication, and would
weigh aboue l45 pounds.

a Catholic priest named Grogsn. OF
st. Bridget's Church, Chicago, one
day last week, while on car on the
Hi. nois Central railroad, seeing the
protestant Bible lying In its appointed
place in the car, picked it up and
threw it out of the window. The
conductor was about to pitch the old
intolerant rascal after it, when he
begged off by saying that he threw
the book away because there were OBJ
scene pencilingsin 1t. This has since
been sscertained to be q lie. No
doubt it was falsehood, aud that it
was his hatred Of the Bible that caus-
ed him to pitch 1t cut Of the window.
At any rate il was not his book and
none of his business what was in it.
The conductor hereafter ought to
make Cotholic priests ride in 8 hog
