cred the third quarter In 823 and
passed the post in 1871. Squaripg
tor home Green moved Monitor up
to her wheel and Bair called on her
for a flush. Answering the call in
charming style she maintained
through the homestretch the same
uniform and amazing pace that
had marked the previous quarter,
every motion Of her feet being
watched intentiy by the vast con-
course of spectators, each of whom
sat or stood 10 almost breathless
suspense, with features rejecting
subdued excitement, until che
dashed under the string and the
watches were scanned. Cheeraiter
cheer then rent the air, the whole
assemblage instiDotively compre'
bending that the record had been
beaten, and SIGNALLING their ap-
probation of the heat by unre.
strained applause.
When the mare returned to the
stand another salvo of applause
went up, and when the magic fig
ures 2:l0} were hung out long cou-
tinued cheers followed. The last
quarter was made in 324 second,

the performance in detail being
quite as astonishing for its unr-
formity as the achievement as a
whole The first and last quarters
in 32a; the second in 324; the third
in 32f; the first half in l:05f; the
MIDDLE half in 1:044 and the final
half in los is a record that is not
the superlative of excellence, but
one that can scarcely he realized,
so astounding are the figures. So

would make that record, and now
he is sure she can, Maud 4. will

Judge Fernald with respect to

BILE to assume that the people of Los

Horrible Outrage ON n Ch,,0.
TUCSON, August 23 "A shocking
case of rape occurred here last
night. A Mexican named Julian
Perez de Serrano, alias "Borego, -
meaning "sheep," seized a little
Mexican girl, aged between six
and seven years, named Rafaela
Marietta, and carried her off some
distance from the city into the
bushes, and here kept her until
midnight, cutting her with a knife
and most brutality outraging her
person. The chiId's father and a
friend, searching fr the child,
finally heard her cries and has
tened to the spot, causing the viii
lain to run away. The City Mar
shai was nouied and with one offi
Ger started In pursuit. The father
and his friend also Joined in the
search. Before daylight the Mar
shall discovered and arrested the
cuIprit. Had the father been the
first to come across him, it is con-
jectured that he would have killed
him on the spot. The prisoner
was taken to the home of the pa
rents and there Identified by the
child. He was then taken to DR..
Hardy, the City Physician, who |
made an examination and found |
damaging evidence of his guilt.
All this occurred before the public
became aware Of the terrible atroc-

AS to the projected State of
South California we regret to note
division of opinion in the press of
this section. The HERALD, which
has been a consistent advocate OF
division, is not sanguine of it's i'm
mediate accomplishment, but the
next decade will be we'll spent in
an agitation which shall ultimate
ly lead to the formation of the new
State. Notwithstanding the fact
that the Legislature Of California,
many years ago, passed an enabling
act permitting the Southern coun-
ties to segregate themselves from
Alta California If they should elect
by vote to do SO, we do not attach
any Importance to that law now.
Our failure to act upon it at the
time and the adoption of a new
Constitution, have probably rem
dered that act obsolete and inoper-
alive. But we by no means des-
pair of obtaining the passage of an
other such act. CoDjunctures are
constantly arising In politics
which enable a section which is
cordially united, especially when
it polls large vote, to dictate con-
cessions. At present the real draw
back lies with the Congress Of the
United States, which will be very
10th to admit q new State without
population at least sufficient for
q single member of Congress. That
the Southern counties will obtain
this population during the next de-
cade is undoubted. Knowing the
inevitable delay, the HERALD pro-
posed the short cut OF the union OF
the Southern counties with Ari-
iona. Congress, in elevating Ari.
IONA to the dignity of territorial
government undoubtedly intended
some day TO receive her as sover.
eigu member of the Union. Such
a joining of populations would al
once render the projected State
eligible to admission from every
point of view. No Arizonsn car
be found who is hostile to this
union, and we verify believe thai
two-thirds of the people of South
ern California would favor it wher
they fully understood its reciprocal
benefits. 1t is on every ground de-
sirable that the influence of thu
Pacific Coast in the Congress of The
United States should be increased
and on this ground all CaliforniaDs
should favor the addition of two
United States Senators to thai
body. With eight instead of slX
Senators in Congress the influence
of this section in what is really the
controlling house would be very
much increased, and a fair share Of
the National appropriations. which
has hitherto been notably with
held, might be looked for witt
reasonable confidence.

acts that the citizsns of the
