Smith and the Detectives

There are detectives and detectives. Sam.
uel e. Smith, of Denver, recently sold some
shares Of stock belonging to q friend for S.
600, and the temptation was SO great that he
~levanted. He struck out in the direction OF
Chicago, where two private detectives over
hauled him, bled him for $3.50 and let him
&c. Then a private detective from Denver
came on, overlook Smith, salted him for $500
more, and told him to 60 and be an honest
man. Smith began to see that it was only a
question Of time when he would be struck
for his last nickel and he would still have to
wer for the $4,000. and life became bur-
densome. He therefore caused the arrest of
the unfaithful detectives, and now has COM
pany in his woe.-MuUdukee Sun.

Fast Youngsters.

SAN FRANCISCO, Nov, 5,-There was a
large attendance at Bay District Park to-day
and great interest was manifested The
track was in the best possible condition and
the weather all that could be desired. The
first event was the attempt to beat the year
ling trotting record of the Kentucky horse
Memento, 2:59a. DR.. Wicker, of Oakland,
entered bay colt Pride, and Governor Stan-
ford's Palo Alto stock farm entered the brown
FLY Hindo Rosa. This race was for a special
medal of the association and a set Of harness.
The horses trotted separately, each having a
running mate, and both beat the record Prid
trottlng a mile in 2:44a, and Hindo Rosa in
2:43. The trial in the 2:43 perform
ance created the greatest enthusiasm. Mack
ey's Swear old Sweetheart next made three
attempts to wipe out the Kentucky horse,
Phil y 'Umpson, a 3-year old, time of 2:21,
but fai. :, finishing the first heat and making
the seco nd in 2::22, beating her own record
half a second, and making the third heat in
2:24ba. L. J. Roses 2-year old tilly, Eva,
tried to beat her own record of 2:26, but
failed in 2:2639. The 2-year old filley Wild
Flower, with a record of 2:21, next trotted a
a quarter of a mile in 30 seconds.

AT CHURCH.

So, Harold, you wondered, you say, al my
smile.
81 (--Nay, my sneers? Well, i my faith, you're
" not wrong-)
When that elegant lady swept up thro' the aisle
And knelt in the front pew so long.
She was very devout, and so liberal, too
How freely she gave of her gold
When the mission plate passed for the heather
Hindoo,
Whom she longs to bring to the fold!
Yet, Harold, 1 know of a grand life gone out
In a madness of pain and despair,
Because of that woman so sweetly devout-
That Christian who krelt near US there.
And l know a young wife who has death in her
face,
Tho she smiles and strives hard to seem
bright.
Whenever she looks on the beauty and grace
That robbed her of what was her right.
So, Harold, you see, if 1 sneered l had cause,
At that Christian in velvet and furs;
And l wondered what pagan or heather there
was
Whose chances were poorer than hers.

A PLAIN SUGGEST rIoN.

EDS. RECORD UNION: If, as Mr. Feter, Chairman
OF the Republican Central Committee Of this city, in
his communication published in your columns, says,
the managers (or as l presume, he intended to be
understood, the Central Committees) of the politi
cal parties of this city really willing to put aside
partsanship and unite in some arrangement by
which suitable candidates for the offices OF members
OF the Board of Education and School Superin: end
ent can be presented TO the people for election, it
would be eminently proper for them to act and at
once give some evidence OF such willingness. If
anything OF the kind is to be done, it must be done
quickly. would most respectfully suggest that
the Republican Committee begin by inviting the
Democratic Committee to meet with them, and to-
gether select fifty hundred citizens, patrons
OF the public schools, to act a nominating con-
vention or, if the committees cannot be brought
together, let the Republican Committee alone ap-

will undoubtedly indorse either plan suggested, or
any movement that will place before them candi-
dates who are honest and qualifed-men who will
unselishly serve in such positions for the good OF
the schools. E. l. ROBINSON.
