Religion on the Race Course.

Talmage, in recent sermon. made the
following good points In favor Of fast horses
aud against fast men. 81 do not believe IN
transmigration Of souls, but when see men
beat and strike these servants Of the human
race-horses--it seems only q fair doctrine
that they should pass over into some poor
brute and become the everlasting stage horse
or the eternal towpath plodder, and suffer
eternal epizootics. These farms la Kentucky,
where horses are trained to perfection, are

to ennobIe aud elevate the beast. There Is
no more virtue in slow driving than in fast
no more than there is In freight train over

making this noble and magnificent animal
ali instrument of evil? make no indiscrim-

prizes for fast horses than in giving them to
the students who work out the most difficult

gins with the betting, for that is gambling.
1t is getting what you can give no equivalent

THE PRESENT KHEDIvE OF EGYPT.
His Lack OF Ambition and Correct Private
... Lie.
London Truth.

London Truth.
Tewfik Is the son of slave, and his father,
Ismail, in changing the order of succession,
never intended that he should be the heir.
The ex-Khedive gave the place Of legitimate
spouse to another woman who Is now stay
ing with him in Naples. Ismall intended to
establish the Nspoleonic distinction between
civil and royal family. He was encour-
aged TO hope that he might purchase the
right to do so by the late Sultan. But when
Abdul Aziz found there was no more money
to be extracted from the Khedive, and
learned that Tewfk was easy-tempered and
very ignorant, he insisted upon his right ol
primogeniture being respected. Only a few
intriguing friends knew that he was not Sc
ignorant as he made believe. One of them
was Signor Martino, tho cousin Of his Italian
friend, and now his private secretary.
Tewfik was supposed to be In the hands Of
Martino. This was an error. Hehad very
clever wife, and was uxorious. The Hanem
Enemeh feared no rival. 1t was she who
would reign, and she was an Anglomaniac
Her dearest friends were English ladies
Whenever the Khedive gives an audience to
minister or foreign consul the Hanen
Enemeh Is posted behind screen of carved
wood, where she hears and sees, but re-
mains invisible. One Cay conversation be.
tween the French controller and Tewfk wa:
suddenly interrupted by an alteration be-
hind the screen. The disputants were

sorcerer would have been placed over the
Cabinet when her son began his reign. Tewfk
would be delighted II Euemeh had strong
er belief in sorcery. His faith IN the super
natural, such as 1t has been revealed to hin
by his mother, Is absolute. .,.r. ...
He Is fond of the companionship Of chill
dren, and himself directs all the Christmas
and Juvenile parties that are gwen by his
three young people. The eldest of the trio
Is twelve years old, and the most youthful
Princess Kadshat, is in her fourth year.
prodigious quantity of Roman candles and
Bengal lights are consumed at these fetes
to which the children of distinguished Euro
peans at Cairo are invited. .ar'
As ruler, Tewfik has adhered to the con
stitutional theory of government. He Is sat
lsfied with drawing his pay and leaving tc
his ministers all responsibility. Whatever
they decree, he countersigns and asks nt
questions-except behind the scenes, where
he applies for information and advice to the
shrewd Martino. -a.aa -8..a .s
Tewfik has never been in the money mar
ket. If there is one thing In which he il
firm, II is in the auditing of his household
accounts, which he looks into carefully. Hi

ways, but never in profuseness. Cairo is nj

Newspapers and the World.
Salt Lake Tribune.

1t is tough work to make newspaper to
please everybody. If there is trouble in the
community and the newspaper espouses one
side, it Is bought, of course; If 1t lets both
sides alone, 1t Is q cowardly sheet that does
not dare to express an opinion If it tenders
little advice to beth sides, It Is interfering
In the private business Of people. Two
miners get Into a law suit about title. One
demands Of the newspaper that 1t shall es.
pouse his case and show up the robbers and
thieves on the other side IN their true char
acters. When told that 1t Is not well for q
newspaper to anticipate the judgment Of q
court in q case pending, the indignant miner
stops the newspaper and tells on the outside
that the paper has been bought Up against
him. The other miner comes and wants to
know If, after subscribing for newspaper
for three years, he can not have Its support
when assailed by vampires and highwaymen.
When the duty is declined, he stops hls paper
and reports that the other side has subsi-
died the paper and nothing can be hoped
for. After awhile the miners come together,
consolidate their claims, elect themselves
trustees, presidents, and secretaries |; the
vampire and highwayman leads the thief
and robber to the newspaper on ce, they to-
gether announce the consolidation, and ex-
pect the newspaper to state that great things
are expected Of the new company, not more
on account Of the value Of their property,
than from the fact of the we'll known perfect
integrity and business sagacity of the direc-
tors. There are entertainments at the re-
spective houses Of Smith and Rodgers. II
the notice given Mrs. Smiths party chances
to be five lines less than that furnished Mrs.
Rodgers's, from that moment Mrs. s. Is the
secret enemy Of the newspaper and her daily
prayer is that . live journal may be started
by somebody. A theatre manager lesves at
. newspaper Office three tickets Of the cur.
rent value Of seventy-five cents each; his
company execute play which in Arkansas
would be murder in the first degree. and II
there Is not notice next morning half q
column long in which the reporter leopard.
izss his immortal soul by lying, the theatre
man puts on an injured look and thinks him
self not only abused but robbed. Every day
men want their enemies attacked and shown
up In the interests of society. When told
that the editor knows nothing Of the facts
but will be happy to publish . card signed
BY the informer, he f'es into . passion and
calls the editor coward. Il is common for
miners to send specimens and to ask men
ton that the ledge Is quite fourteen feet be-
tween the walls, aud that the specimen Is
Just IN average. The same spirit runs
through al trades, professions, and to every
branch Of busness; It extends TO politics, TO
society-everywhere The newspaper is the
stay Of more enterprises, the builder up Of
more men, the champion Of more struggling
causes, than oil other agencies, and during
the year receives moro abuse and less pay
for It's work than any other OF the modern
slaves of this huge old inconsistent world.

A POINT IN RACING.
The Way a California Horse Won.
San Francisco Post.

San Francisco Post
There Is no place In the world where en-
terprises Of great pth and moment are start
ed with more whole souled energy and drop
ped with more apathetIc suddeness than on
this coast. There are probably no club
grounds In the country, not excepting jerome
Park, better adapted for racing aud It's kim
dred amusements on large scale than the
one referred to. In every way Its fittings
are worthy Of the chief city Of the coast, and
yet, since the great alleged $4,000 race won
by Rutherford, four years ago, NOT single
race or event Of importance has taken place
there.
The writer met the jocky Of Rutherford
while dining at the winter palace in St.
Petersburg short time after that huge sport
Ing wrangle, and In the course of conver-
sation on turf matters, the astute prodder Of
horse flesh said, with chlldlike and ingenu-
Gus smile, as he passed the beans:
"Would you like to know the dead inside
facts as to how that race was won?"
"Why, you rode the best horse; didn't
you?" we asked.
"Not bit of it," replied the jocky with a
grin. "The fact was, Rutherford was only
about the fourth choice, and was not rated
| at more than eighth or ninth In The pools
True Blue, Katie Pease and Thad Stevens all
had the call over Ruthy. But 1t happened
that my horse was "bolter," and to steady
him and prevent his flying the track / put
blinders and goggles on him. You noticed
them, suppose"
"There were Two horses rigged that way, VI
we replied.
| "Eyactly; Stevens was q nervous critter
also, and as soon as his trainer saw how the
goggles steadied my horse lie put 'em on
Thad, too. The day before the race big
idea occurred to me. got couple of pairs
Of magnifying lenses and quietly put 'em in
the place Of the plain glasses In the goggles
Of both horses. Catch on to the idea ?"
"Well, partly"
"The only difference was, that in Stevens
bride fastened the glasses with the bulge
inside, so as to make them diminishing
glasses. Don't you see?"
alike looking through the wrong end o.
an opera glass, ehP"
EXACTLY. The result was, that while
Rutherford was encouraged all the way by
the course-seeming only couple of hun
dred yards long-the quarter flags appeared
ten miles apart to Stevens. You see, horse
can be discouraged as we'll as man."
"Great scheme, that"
"Well, should smile. Ruthy thought h'
was In for little quarter race, and It KEEP
up his heart 80 that when we had nearly
done the last mile and swung into the home
stretch, and I called on him to let out hi
last link, he thought the judges stand wa
right under his nose: SO he came home lik
All express train on down grade, but Thad
who thought he had about fifteen miles fur
ther TO go, went all TO pieces, as you remem
ber, and almost laid down on the track, h
was SO mentally caved in, as 1t WERE"
There can be no question as to the genu
ineness of this story, but we deliver II TO th
intelligent reader at importers risk for al
that.
