Marrying a Wealthv Widosu, the Daughter
Of HIS Wealthy Employer.
GNeW York Star,


In society circles in the Seventh ward,
Newark, N. j., there is considerable COM
motion over the marriage of wealthy
widow of 81 with her fathers coachman, q
youth of 49,. Her father, who is called
ssColonel,'' has titled relatives in England.
He has resided in Newark about forty years.
and is considered one of the wealthiest and
most successful of business men. He is
we'll known, too, in political circles. Jen-
ME ie his only child, and some years ago was
considered one of the most beautiful and
accomplished young women in Newark soci-
ETY.. About eight years ago che married an
only son, who inherited large fortune on
the death of his parents. He died year
ago in Philadelphia, leaving an only child.
By his will he bequeathed his property to his
wife, confident that she would properly pro-
vide for their boy. Shortly after the death
of her husband the young widow returned
to her fathers house in Newark. In the
colonel's employ was James, who for three
or four years had attended to the horses,
run errands and acted as coachman.
The widow frequently had the young man
take her out in the family carriage. The
two fell in love, and one day visited New
York, where they we're quietly married.
The marriage was kept secret until the wild.
ow and her mother visited Boston few
weeks ago. The coachman followed them
and was officially introduced to the old lady
as her son-in-law. The coachman and his
wife took up their residence in New York.
When the Colonel was informed by his wife
of What had taken place, he was the maddest
man in Newark. Recently his anger has
cooled off, and himself and wife pay an occa-
sional visit to their SON. law.

time. All the1 horses were apparently
trotting for blood. Down they came, until
just before the wire was reached Indicator
forged to the front and passed under the
wire nose in the lead, Silky B. second,
Ella Earl third, Charley Champ, Col. King
and Emma Coon close up in the order
named. Time 2:3O1@.
All this time it was raining moderately,
but the heavy storm threatened still held of,
and the horses were called up for the third
heat. Before the start the judges announced
that Col. King had been withdrawn.
AS the horses were brought up to tho stand
the driver of Ella Earl, who it was thought
had not been driving to win, was taken from
the sulky and Henry Seeley, Isaac Staples
driver, put in his place, with a warning to
drive the mare for what she was worth.
Third heat-The horses were sent off after
two trials, at which time it was raining
briskly. Indicator and Emma Coon both
left their feet Immediately upon leaving the
wire and the first named was not brought
down until nearing the quarter, when he had
fallen behind to fourth place, with Ella Earl
in the lead, Silky B three lengths behind.
On the half Silky B made play for Earl, lap
ping her as the half was passed, Indicator in
the meanwhile having worked up to good
third with Charley Champ on his wheel.
Down the back stretch Ella Earl and Silky
B trotted head and head, with Indicator and
Champ close up. Swinging into the home
stretch Silky forged ahead and took the
inside, and from then had the race we'll in
hand, though Seeley sent Ella Earl the best
he knew, and Indicator as usual did some
fine work, getting second place, Champ and
Ella Coon being we'll up. Time, 2:3219.

TPhiladelphia Inuuirer-Ind. L


Senator Conkling has been invited and
declined the invitation to stump Ohio for
the Republican party this fall, when it is
possible that if he had accepted he might
have done some good. But the
great Senator from New York is
not in sympathy with the Republic
can party IN Ohio; its candidate is
not his candidate. Indeed, his candidate
was defeated In the convention, and another
one, supposed to represent the Presidential
interests Of Secretary Sherman, was nomi-
mated. All things considered, Senator Conk-
ling is too fine statesman for everyday
uses. he should be kept perpetually in q
glass case, with mirrored back, in the
Senate chamber, forever perfumed and
curled, like the fair Adonis he imagines
himself to be, for the exclusive admira-
ton of the Senatorial ladies' gallery. The
Senator from New York, when !. closely
looked at, is not 9 6 ant even to ordinary
eyes; but when scanned nearly by those who
can always distinguish the real from the
sham he is very little man indeed. In
this case his petty spite and vengeance re.
duce him to the proportions of dwarf.

Programme TO-Day.


At this writing the prospect for to-day is
far from encouraging. In fact, it is de-
cidedly gloomy. Such rain storm as that
of last night has not visited this section for
years. The expression that "the rain fell in
torrents was realized to its fullest extent,
and it was continued for hours. Howe yer,
the Driving Park track is favorable for
quick drying, and it the sun should come
out clear this morning, with good drying
wind, the track would be in fair shape by
the hour of 2 o'clock, the time for calling the
first race. In this event, an afternoon of
rare sport is provided. ssa
First on the programme will be the con-
clusion of the 1882 race, in which Silky B.
has two heats and Indicator one. Then will
come the regular programme of follows:

Time, 1884, J.: 2:aoil, 8:s2I11.
The last half of this heat was trotted in q
pouring rain, flooding the track in the
low places and making it sticky
and uncertain, considering which it may
will be looked upon as the finest and best
contested heat ever trotted upon the track.
Silky B. and Ella Earl trotted three heats
without skip, and their performances in
dictate that the 2:3015 of the second heat, the
best time with which either is as yet cred
tied, by no means tells the spirit that is in
them under favorable circumstances. Indi-
Gator is very fast horse, probably tho fast
est of the three, but he is terribly uncertain.
It seems impossible to get him off level.
headed and trotting squarely, but when he
does settle down to business he gets over the
ground very fast indeed.
Emma Coon is handsome animal, but
she is in too fast company until her trotting
character is better developed.
Charley Champ, unfortunately, was driven
by person better calculated to pilot an OK
team attached to breaking pillow than q
race horse, but the trotting sense of the
horse saved him from disgracing his pre-
vious recold.
Col. King was not exactly at himself, but
did excellent work in the two heats he trot-
ted.
At the conclusion of the third heat, the
rain still falling in torrents, the judges an
nounced postponement until P. M. to-day,
when it will be concluded, and if Emma Earl
is sent from the start, and Indicator can be
kept on his feet, the horse that wins will
beat 2:aO15.
rrJE
The fall of rain was very heavy, and be-
fore the horses could be gotten off the track,
water was running down the home stretch
at lively rate, the depth in front
of the grand stand being two inches or
more. The rain was acco mpanied by ter
riff, thunder and binding lightning, one
discharge of the electric fluid finding its OBJ
jective point inconveniently near the occu-
pants of the grand stand waiting for the
lifting of the clouds for an opportunity to
drive home. The objective point proved to
be the telephone poles strung along the ave-
nue. in rear of the grounds, one of which was
split down nearly its whole length, and sew
eral others badly splintered. Several horses
were hitched in the sheds few feet from
the struck poles, all of whom escaped injury,
while the wires of an umbrella in one of
the buggies was melted down by the fluid.
The drive into the city, especially by those
in open couveyances, was damp affair, but
as horsemen aud lovers of horse sports are
proverbially good-natured, and believe in
making the best of everything, the wet and
muddy ride was set down as good joke
rather than something to mourn over.
The races we're judged yesterday by Maj.
Morrill,, Minneapolis; Mr.. LOOMS, St. Peter.
and Capt. Bart Atkins, st. Paul, with Thos.
B. Marrett as timer and Col. John Harding,
of Faribault, as marshal, and that they were
the right men in the right place is readily
seen by reading the report above.
