verse of the eleventh chapter of Matthew.
He said that people are prone 10 run to ex-
tremes on religious matters. There are too
many people in the church that sing loudly
and make great show, and there is another
class of people who try simply TO live up 10
the commandments. Both parties are In
error. The service of God is such that
every person can do il. Ii Is easier TO serve

About HOPEFUL.

Chicago HOrseman-
The gray gelding Hopeful, who made
his first appearance on the trotting turf in
1872. and acquired his harness record of
2:14${ in 1878. and the champion wagon
record of 2:1619 the same year. is alive and
a trOtter. His present owner, Emerson
Brooks. of New York, was in the Horseman
Office few days since, and informed us
that he drove the old horse very lately from
Stamford, Conn, to New York, thirty-six
miles, at good road gait all the way, and
that he entered Central park ''as fresh as a
daisy" One of the best and gameSt races
we ever saw was trotted by Hopeful at
Cleveland on July %, 1873, when he beat
Proteine, Great Eastern, Nettie and Cozette
in 2:1T1<, 2:15z, 2:157E. PrOteine was a
strong favorite before the race, Great East
ern second choice, Nettie third, with
COzette and Hopeful in the field at about
ten dollars in the hundred, Even after the
first heat the Cincinnati delegation and
their friends would not believe that she
could be beaten, as she had finished at
HopefufS wheel. and she still remained
favOrite; but after the second heat in 2:15%
they realized that the mare was Outclassed.
and the hedgerow was in demand. The
driver of the little gray ,elding, Dan Mace,
and the owner, A. W. Richmond, have
both Joined the majOrityt," but until the
triumphs of the turf ceased to interest them
that day at Cleveland was ''red letter
day" in their calendars. Hopeful was a
great horse that year, winning at Buffalo,
Rochester, Utica and Hartford in the grand
circuit, then West at the great fairs OF
Kansas City, Minneapolis, Quincy and st.
Louis, winding up at Chicago by beating
Rarus on Oct. 10, and two days later trot-
ting to wagon in 2:161S, 2:17, 2:17. 1t was
a great campaign and Hopeful and Dan
Mace were the idols of the hour.

Gen. Grant an FIeetwoOa.

A correspondent OF the Spirit writes as
follows Of seeing the late Gen Grant at
Fleetwood:
On the occasion Of the Trinket-St. Julien
match race at Fleetwood four years ago. the
writer, as a chronicler of the doings of the
day, arrived on the ground early, and,
seated at the reporters table, proceeded to
make some memoranda. While engaged in
jotting his notes voice at his front re-
marked: Il see that TTinket is only five
year-old." THAT is typographical error. s"
was the reply; ''She is years old" The
first speaker was the hero of Appomatox,
who ended the battle of life at Mt Nc
Oregon. Several questions and answers
passed, and finally the conversation turned
upon the development of trotting speed
The theme was evidently pet subject with
the writer's viS-a-viS, as he spoke elOQuently
and understandingly of the merits of Dexter,
Governor Sprague, st. Julien and other
famous horses of the present generation.
The conversation convinced the writer that
however naturally reticent Gen. Grant may
have been, it was his delight To talk freely
and interestingly when the trotting horse
was made the subject. AS handler of the
ribbons he was no tyrO, and nothing pleased
him more than breezy spin behind an
honest trotter. The Spirit of Nov. 81, 1865,
says of him:
ION Tuesday morning last Mr.. Bonner
drove Gen. Grant to the Fashion course to
see Dexter trot. They rode out behind the
Auburn Horse and Lantern, and Mr.. David
Bonner went along with Peerless. The
morning was rough and gusty, a gale from
the east having set in. When they reached
the course Mr.. Bonner drove the general
around behind Peerless in order that he
might see how the track was There had
been a frost the night before, and the
ground was heavy and holding in many
places. Dexter was then brought out by
Budd Doble, and started to 90 a mile in
harness. The first half mile was trotted in
los, but the wind became what the sailors
call a mueller in the last half mile, and
very much an obstacle to high speed; never
theleSs the famous little horse completed
the mile in 2:214. Under these circum-
stances, this is to be regarded as equal to
any performance that Dexter ever made
After it was over he was put in the shafts
of a road wagon and took Gen. Grant and
Mr.. Bonner back to town. Mr.. Bonner
drove to ThiTtY-fouTth street ferry. On
this side Gen. Grant took the reins and
drove to Fourteenth street. Mr.. Bonner
then resumed them and drove down Broad
way 10 the Metropolitan hotel. The little
horse, with all his vast speed and indOmi-
table spirit, has now acquired the steadiness
of an old Stager, and, to use the English
expression concerning horses of extraordin-
airy merit, his shadow on the wall is worth
all the money that ever was paid for him."

MIR. Cakes Nam.

No traces of the burglar who entered Mr..
L. +. Cakes residence early yesterday
morning were discovered up to last night
and no clue was found to serve as a start
ing point. The tussle between Mr.. Cakes
and the ruffian occurred in the dark. so no
description could be given of the man at
all. He was evidently determined rascal,
and when he found himself in a box decided
on shooting his way out, as both shots came
within an ace of taking effect Mr.. Cakes
was clad simply in night shirt, one sleeve
OF which was blackened with powder, while
the flash scorched his eyelids and hair
His courage therefore seems almost to have
cost him dearly. As stated in the GLOBE
OF Sunday, the man was evidently discov-
cred early in the game, as he had only Wis
tied one room. In that he found two breast
pins, some earrings, and other little articles
of more or less value.

The comparison Of forces or brilliancy in
either of the above interrogations is not
more to the disadvantage of the weaker
than was the fact as between Phallas and
Majolica- Probably the most general ex-
preston was, how people can deceive them
selves! The owner of MajOlica sat directly

These meetings are growing more and more

Mr. FfnkIe:s sale.

Last week we called attention to the fact
that Mr.. II. G. Finkle of MOorhead would,
Sept. II, sell considerable portion of his
choice-bred trotting stock at the state fair
grounds. All persons who may think of
buying can obtain catalogues OF sale by ap-
plying to Mr.. Finkle.
Mr.. Finkle, we regret to learn, lost his
colt out of Valley Rose. This colt was
foaled June 20, and was an unusually fine
one. It was kicked by one of the brood
mares while in the pasture, and had to be
killed. II was regarded as the finest colt
foaled at Blue Grass farm this spring.

The Liguor Ordinance.

The liquor license ordinance which was
distributed among saloonkeepers on Satur-
day was understood by number to be con-
strued according to the literal reading OF the
law, and most of them so understanding it
closed up their places of business sharply
on time Saturday. Yesterday morning
some Of the saloons were kept closed until
it became generally understood that the Or
dinance was not intended to be strictly en-
forced, when the key was turned in the
door and the cocktails dealt out as usual.
The saloons, however, were run with closed
windows, and as quietly as it was possible
to do.
