whiz like that of a feei-cutter.
MoBBING the Queens son.ln-la by way Of preserv-
ing the established institutions OF the realm one OF
the anomalous movements of English politics.
TUE exigencies of Sunday journalism have COM
PEELED us to abandon the time.honorcd custom OF
printing selected story. But the story on third
page to-day is such an uncommony good one that 1t
almost compels departure from our new usage.
THE first appearance In this city OF Mile. Emma
Nevada and a strong concert company ought to nll
the Congregational Church Monday night. We hear
glowing accounts Of the new tenor who sings with
this troupe.
OUR esteemeed contemporary, the Republican, ap.
parently cannot understand criticisms upon turf
matters which are written In the Interest Of the
public instead OF the stable followers and profess
sional turf gamblers. When 1t sought TO discredit
THE SUNDAY HKRALp's censures OF the manner In
which certain races at Ivy City were arranged by
attributng them to a personal grievance 1t
only showed that It's own article could have been
written neither by a gentleman nor a journalist
The former would have been restrained by his
instincts from such an imputation; the latter be-
cause the public are only concerned with the cor
rectness Of the facts and the soundness Of the
deductions in newspaper criticism. But besides
what we said. We did not claim that the Barnum-
Heel and Toe race wasa dishonest one, or that the
best horse did not win. What we said was that Bar
NUNS form In the first heat showed clearly that he
was not run to win his previous with Strathspey.
Although In that case there were four horses and
Strathspey not the best, there hardly the SEM
blance OF contest. Two Of the horses he defeated
so easily came out day afterward in winning form.
The way the betting wavered without apparent rea-
one forcbly Of the story told OF an English book
maker. Happening into hostelry where the trainers
of number Of horses that were going to start In q
handicap the next day were congregated, he began
offering odds. Quickly getting oil he wanted
against one horse, he proceeded to offer to lay
against any OF the Others But as his most tempting
offers were not taken, the situation began to dawn
him, anl, closing his book, he jacuated Well
declare, all these good horses in the race but only
that's going to try" Although In our very sue
cessful meeting, for which Secretary Mcintyre and
the officers deserve every credit, there were many
truly run and Interesting turf contests, there were,
1t must be admitted few in which the best horses
at the distances and weights apparently "didn't
try"
There were many who believed Garrison purposely
got bad start on Barnum in the second heat and
did not ride TO win. We made no charge OF the
kind, hut we do say that starting Heel and Toe the
last day. when her trainer Informed his friends that
