Some gossip about few OF the jock
eys who have acquired some reputa-
tion may not be uninteresting. Tom
Costllo is mere youth, and was talk
en- from the House Of Refuge. The
first race he rode he made $1,000, and
he is said to be worth to-day $50, 600,
which he has ..salted down. in good
securities. The regular price paid to
Jockeys for riding horse is $50 If
they win and SO if they lose: but if
they happen 10 win there is no telling
what their earnings will be, for the
owner OF tue horse almost invariably
makes the rider present of a consid-
erable sum-ranging all the way from
500 to 81, 600. In the case of Cos
tello, last season he rode the King at
Saratoga: One gentleman who was
backing the horse heavily offered him
5000 if he would ride him, whether
he won or lost. IF he won he was to
get 81 500. Costello Won, and so re
ceived, for few minutes work, what
is the yearly salary of many clerk
in Brooklyn or New York. He is but
fifteen years of age, and is very quiet
in his habits. Larry Ural is fourteen
years OLD. He is the best light weight
Jockey there is. Matt Connor is also
fourteen years of age, and has been on
the LorilIard farm since he was six
years cid. Charley O'Lary is light
weight who can ride at seventy five or
eighty pounds. He is orle twelve
years of age, and has won some very
good races this season.

A GOOD NEWSPAPER: GODS GRANDEsr
TEMPORAL BLESSING.

f'rOm Rev. Dr.. Taimagos Sunday Sermon.
l tell yon, my friends, that good
newspaper is the grandest blessing
that God has given to the people
of this century-the grandest tenn
poral blessing. The theory is
abroad that anybody can make a
newspaper with the and OF a CAPT
taIist. The fact is that fortunes
are swallowed up every year in tho
vain effo,ts to establish newspa-
pers. The big whale eats about
fifty minnows We have 1000
daiies and weeklies in the United
States and Canala. and only fhir-
ty-six are half u century old. The
average life OF a newspaper is five
years. Most of them die of chole-
IA infantun. Laughter 1t is
high time that it was understood
that the most successful way To-
sink fortune and keep it sunk is
to start newspaper A man with
an idea starts The Eatrersh Ga
zette or the If5Ue,15uua -1dcocutc.
Finally the money is all spent, and
subscribers wonder why their pa
pers do not come. Laughter ]
Let me tel you that If yoa have
Al :dea, either moral, social, politI-
cal or religious, you had better
charge or The world through the
columns already establ shed. II
you can't climb your own back
/ yard fence, don't try the Matter
horn. Ii you can't sail 4 sloop,
don't try to navigate the Great
Eastern. To publish a newspaper
requires the skill, precision, vigi--
lance, strategy and boldncss of
commander-i r-in-chief. To edit a
newspaper one needs to be states
man. :. geographer, statistician
and, SO far as ali acquisitions are
concerned, encyclopedia! If you
have q notion to start and publish
a newspaper, take 1t for granted
that you are threatened with soft
ening of the brain. Take your
pocketbook and throw it into your
wite's lap. Rush up to Blooming.
Asylum and surrender yourself be~
tore yon do something desperate
Laughter.
