nounced, has been engaged to drive portion
of Commodore Kittson's trotters and PAGERS.
At present he IS working Little Brown jug,
Lady Rolfe, Silverton and Fleming Girl, while
Henry Seeley has $3.50, Fannie Witherspoon,
Won Arnim, Sauuie G.. and Gem. Mr.. Nc
C4rthy is we'll pleased with his new quarters
aud feels confident the Midway stable will
make good showing wherever it appears.
Little Brown Jug and Silverton, both received
their records in his hands, aud he Is therefore
specially gratiied that he is to handle them
this year. While looking well, they,
like all the other horses named, yet need
a good deal of work to put them
in proper condition. The weather up
to the present time not having permitted OF
that, though preparation was so essential.

number OF admirers of turf sports visited Mid
way IN expectation of seeing some fast work,
snd, though the morning was raw and cold,
were gratified at seeing the Jug, $3.50 and
Fannie Witherspoon do some very good work,
while Silverton and Revenue, son of the

erably better than 2:30 gait, giving the spec

Roughly Used.

Two men named Michael Doney and Owen
Thooey were arrested at the o'clock train
that left Union park last night, on charge of
creating disturbance. The two men received
severe blows on the head, which Or. Wheaton
sewed up, after which they were brought to
the city hall. Both were covered with blood and
showed unmistakable indications of rough
treatment. Their injuries were not serious,
however, consisting of mere scalp wounds.
The story they tell is that they we're not to
blame; that Doney was trying to get on the
train when he was pushed away by Casey,
the special policeman of the Chicago, Milwau-
by fhim Casey. The story that
Casey tells is quite different. He says the
train had stopped at Union park and that
there was the usual rush; that Dopey tried to
get on the train and in doing so pushed alady
off the train and otherwise behaved so rudely
that he had to interfere to preserve
order and protect the ladies from mis-
treatment, when Doney struck him, and
in order to protect himself he Casey was
compellee to draw his club; that the friends
of Doney lnterferred and all assailed him.
This statement is corroborated by Officers
Bremen, Babe, and Zirkelbach, who were out
there. These officers seeing the disturbance
at the cars entered the crowd to put stop to
it, and arrested Doney and Thooey. Two other
parties engaged in the ass lult upon officer
Casey got away. These officers stated that
Doney, Thooey and their friends were getting
the better of officer Casey, and would have
killed him if they had not come up as they
did The disturbance became quite
general, and clubs and stones were fly
ing around pretty lively, Doney and Thooey
board at Kelley's on Minnesota street, and af-
ter their injuries had been attended to by the
doctor, their frieads furnished the necessary
security for their appearance and they were
allowed to go. Casey was struck several
blows In the force and bled very freely.

The Purchase OF Erdenheim by Commodore
KittsoR.

hntSOR.
The Philadelphia Times of the 23d con
firms the sale of Erdenheim, the noted stock
farm of Aristides Welch, to Commodore N.
w. Kittson, in the following paragraph:
Yesterday morning Aristides WEIGH con-
tracted for the sale of his well-known Erden-
helm farm and stock at Chestnut Hill, to Com
modore N. W. Kittson, of st. Paul, Minn., for
SI25,000. This agreement is the con-
clusion of negotiations that have been pend
ing with Commodore Kittson for long while.
Last winter Mr.. Welch made up his mind TO
dispose of the place, and arrangements were
made then for sale to the present purchaser.
The price was fixed at S100,00 and the neces-
sary papers were duly signed. But soon after
Mr.. Welch's children and relations persuaded
him to cancel the sale, which he did by the
pigment of $1,000 forfeit. Lately
there was another bargain arranged, which
resulted in the sale yesterday. The $4,000
excess over the first price is represented to be
the sum asked for about twenty-five more
horses upon the farm than he had then. The
purchaser, Commodore Kittson, is wealthy
resident ofsSt. Paul, where he owns the Mid
way Stud park, and a large stock of horses.
He was at one time in the employ of John
Jacob Astor, aud was also an agent for the
Hudson Bay Fur company. The Erdenheim
farm comprises $50 acres of fine land, with
handsome buildings and Improvements, and
contains large collection of blooded stock.
1t has been the breeding place of long list OF
noted horses, including Iroquols, Parole,
Laamington, Harold, Pera, Aristides and
Others

Pennsylvania Politics.

PHILADELPHIA, May Ex-senator Cameron
held conference to-day with number of
well known business men, representing the
commercial, financial and manufacturin in
terests of the city and state, with reference to
supporting the ticket: 1t has been decided
that regular Republican convention will be
reconvened within the next fifteen days, and
be composed of the same delegates who
formed the first convention and the vacancy
occasioned by the declination of Marshall will
then be filled. Senator Cameron said
the success of the ticket, rested with
the great agricultural, mining and CONNER
cial interests of the state. He had fought for
a protective tariff in the senate, as his father
had done in other days, but if those who had
heretofore supported the Republican ticket
wanted to strike him, he was ready to re-
ceive the blow, and he would oppose tariff
in the senate as heartily as he upheld it. 'If
you want to kilfthe party, we will all go TO
destruction together" was significant warn
ing of the senator.

4 brilliant Performance.

The performance of Dwyer Bros Hindoo,
in the Cup race at Louisville, Friday, the 10Th,
was in many respects the most wonderful
performance of this brilliant turf performer.
Owing to his defeat by the veteran Check
mate in the DixiaDa stakes the Wednesday
preceding, the old horse was made u decided
favorite for the Cup race. The
owners of Hindoo, however, stood by their
horse, who fully justified their confidence
by remarkable exhibition of speed and
staying powers. Taking the track at the
drop OF the flag Hindoo cut out the running
from the start, though the first mile was run
in slow time. From that point, however, he
quickened his pace to an extent that defied
all the efforts of Checkmate TO get to time,
the last two miles being run in the remark
able time Of $50. ard the last mile in 1:42.
The race proves Hindoo to be the best horse
in the country over distance of ground.
