SHORTLY after the war the Legisla-
ture of Georgia made law exemptiDg
all new factories that might be estab-
lished from taxation for ten years.
Under this encouragement the State
has prospered wonderfully. 1t will ap.
pear strange that a number of the old
factory proprietors have just combined
to test in the courts the validity of that
exemption.

A CONTEMPORARY remarks that there
is much complaint among people entitled
to have money, at the scarcity of small
notes, There is no demand for Eastern
exchange, and the bills coming thence
are generally fifties, hundreds, and of
larger denomination. Tn, est of bring
ing gold is twice as great as for green
backs, but yet gold has become drug in
the market. What is wanted is "hog
money"-ones, twos, and hves, with
which to pay stock raisers for their
porkers.

Thie Ii Q notable year IN the history Of
the American thoroughbred. 1t has
only been at long intervals that two such
really noble horses as Falsetto and
Sp .ndthrifi have met. In 1923 Eclipse
and Henry ran their famous four-mile-
heat race over the Union Course, Long
Island, and 1t was not until sixteen years
later that Q race Of equal historical inter
est took place. Then Wagner and Grey
Eagle met ct Louisville and the whole
country waited snxiously for the news.
Three years later the race between Fash
ion and Boston was run on Long Island,
and In that race Boston was ridden by
Jockey who is yet on the turf and who
has been riding recently at Brighton
Bach. After twelve years had passed
two Of Boston's colts met at New Or
leans and there were run the most con-
spicuous races in the history Of the
A,uercan turf hose between Lexing-
ton and Lecomte. The next racing
epoch Is marked BY the contests between
Harry Bassett and the magnificent Long
fellow. while the year b. fore last ~as
signAlized by the meeting Of Ten Br eek
and Parole. In addition TO the appear
ance Of FalsettO and Sp-ndlhrift, this
year will be remembered by the sue
cesses Of Amer can horses III England.
What Parole has Done and has failed to
DO every Ole knows. PappoOse and
Geraldine have also carried the Lorillard
colon 70 the front, and yesterday at
Egham Mr.. Richard Ten Brock, who
twenty years ago showed English turf
men what American hol ses could do,
had the satisfaction of seeing his Ken
tucky-bred filly Saratoga come In first
for the Runnymede Plate. This filly
with severa! others was bought in Ken
tucky bv the Duke Of Hamilton last
year, but he sold them this spring, and
he will nov perhaps regret that le did
not give his American youngsters q
long trial before parting with them. II
- within the probabilities OF a near fu-
ture that the European stables will have
representatives at the annual sales Of

HORSE STOLEN AND RECoyERED.-0n Friday
night OF last week Mr. Edward Talbot, son of Mr..
Joshua F. G. Talbot, living the York turnpike,
near Timonium, rode grey mare to the Ten Mile
House and tied her in the yard of the hotel. A
short time thereafter the mare was missed as also
a dog which had followed Mr.. Talbot. Suppos-
ing at once that she had beer stolen he went to the
to-gate short distance below the hotel and learn
ed from Mr. Causey, the keeper, that a man on a
gray mare, followed by dog, had gone through
the gate, towards Baltimore, little while before.
Mr.. Talbot procured n team and at once started
to the city, going direct to the Central police sta
ton to make known his loss. The officers informed
him that they had already arrested man with a
grey mare in his possession, and that ne was con-
fined in one of the cells On taking look at the
prisoner he at once recognized him as the fellow
he had seen oafing about the hotel, and, what
made the matter still more conclusive, Mr.. Tai
bolts dog was in the cell with him and was over
oyed at seeing his master. The thief is evidently
a tramp, who gave his name as Joseph Welsh, and
when arrested said the mare belonged to this broth
er at Carlisle Pa lie tried to sell the animal and
failing to do so, wanted to raise SO ON her. This
suspicious action led to his arrest.

THE VALUE OF ADvERTIsING.-In a case before
justice in Somerset county, Md, few days ago,
judgment was rendered against Peter Smith, who
claimed damages for impounding and keeping for
four weeks four stray CATTLE the property of W..
7. Ford. Smith had descriptive advertisements
of the property posted in several places in the
neighborhood, but the justice gave judgment
against him on the ground that the cattle had not
been advertised in one of the county papers when
taken up, as required by law. A little advertising
would have saved Mr.. Smiths case

Nor is the Time to Get What You Wam.-If
You are in want of clothing of any kind the proper
place to buy it is at the New York One-Price Cash
Clothing House, 1874 west Baltimore street, oppo-
site Light. This house has an immense stock of
goods of all grades which is being sold at prices
which defy competition, and visit to it will prove
this fact beyond the shadow Of a doubt Their
clothing is made up in the best manner as to style
and durability, and there miss fits, as in
garments made by merchant tailOrs, and hence no
loss to the purchaser. Give it a trial and be con-
WINGED.
