June meeting of this association promises
to be the greatest racing event that ever
took place in the West, or perhaps in this
country. The added money and purses
aggregate not far from $50, 600, and the full
value of the stakes and pursas will largely
exceed that sum. Most of the crack horses
of the country and large number of the
best of the youngsters will be here, and the
indications are that the attendance will be
very great. The track is in splendid con-
dition, and the new and beautiful club house
is completed, and everything points in the
direction of grand sport and great sue
cess.

PETERSBURG, Va, May 3O.--For some time
past W. I. Roffe, clerk in a store in this
city, has been paying marked attentions to
Miss Florence Chambers, daughter of r. It.
Chambers of this place. The young mans
attention ripened into love, which was re-
ciprocated. For some cause the father of
the young lady forbade Roffe from visiting
his daughter. a day or two ago Roffe wrote
to friend at Garrisburg, N. c., to get a
marriage license for him, and have it ready
for him there to-day. This morning Miss
Chambers left home, leaving her parents
under the impression that she was going to
church, and from there she would
go to spend the day with her aunt. Instead of
attending church Miss Chambers went to the
depot of the Atlantic Coast line, where, by
appointment, she met her lover, and the two
took the south-bound train for Garrisburg
where they were married this evening. Miss
Chambers is a beautiful brunette and is
about Is years of age. Rofe is about 81

A Cosby Story About His Rela-

A Cosby story About His ReIa-
tons with the Clevelands.
Special to the Globe.
WASHINGTON, MAY 30.-How it has
come about that DR.. Sunderland is to tie
the knot of itself makes a pretty little
story. The Presbyterian divine was the
the pastor of the presidents mother long
years ago when he was young preacher in
New York state. He has always been
Republican and an earnest prohibitionist,
and with Charming preached it from his
pulpit during the war. During the last
presidential campaign it is well remem-
bered that DR.. Sunderland was severe on
Nh. Cleveland. When the latter Sc
lected the Four-and-a-half street church
as his place of worship. there was great
surprise among those who knew the minis
ter's sentiments. After little while the
secret came out in the following way: At
Miss Cleyeland's first Saturday reception,
the week of the Inauguration, Mrs. Sun
derland went with some friends. Mrs.
Hoyt stood next to Miss Cleveland, and
hearing the name of Sunderland, turned
and said: ''Are you the wife of DR.. Sun
derland, who once preached in Batavia
n. Y.?" The minister's wife replied in
the affirmative, and Mrs. HOyt exclaimed:
Then we must be friends; your husband
was my dear mothers pastor" That was
the beginning of friendly conversation in
the east room that day, resulting in more
conversations and friendly visits. When
Mrs. Sunderland told her husband, who
had so denounced Mr.. Cleveland during
the campaign, and who had not then
called and had declared that he would not
call on the president, the outspollen little
preacher said he would not take back
word. But it was an unexpected blow at
his political feelings towards Mr.. Cleveland.
Then the sister of the president and the
wife of the minister put their heads together
and brought about meeting between the
brother and the husband. On Sunday the
president walked into the Four-and- "a Half
street church. and set himself down in the
pew selected by Miss Cleveland. The
preacher, who had preached against slavery
with such force that he had preached
away nearly all of the congregation.
and in this pulpit, now preached
right on, seemingly oblivious to the presi-
dental presence. The women had poured
oil on the troubled waters and there was
peace. Half block away from the Pres
byterian edifice is the Metropolitan Metho-
dist Episcopal church, where Gen. Grant
worshipped. Curiously enough, the gen
erals old pastor, the Rev. j. p. Newman
again preSides over its destinies, having
been recently transferred to that charge
When the pews were sold few months
ago the trustees notified the president that
one had been set aside, and would be at his
disposal whenever he cared to hear the
gospel expounded according to John Wesley
So far he has not availed himself of the
invitation.

AFTER THE NUPTlAEs.
A Promise of Renewed Life i'm Can.
itaI Society Circles.

Special to the Globe.
WASHINGTON, May 30.-It was stated
in an interview with member of the cabi-
net that the president would probably re-
main for day or so at the White house
after his marriage to Miss Folsom, and
leave with his bride for weeks tour. The
exact destination has not yet been impaired
by the president, who in this matter keeps
his own counsel. Should this plan be car
red out grand public reception in the
White house would be the order
OF the day upon their re-
turn to Washington. Whether this
statements purely conjecture or emanated
from personal knowledge on the part of
the person speaking it, is difficult to de-
termine. Though it is late in the season
for social entertainments it is certain that
the marriage in the White house will be
followed by temporary revival of festivi-
ties, as the president and his bride will be
entertained by the cabinet ladies. Various
other handsome entertainments would un-
doubtedly be given in their honor were not
for the well known decision of the presi-
dent and his household to accept no invita-
tons outside of this circle.

Chicago House PAINTERS.

CHICAGO, May 30.-An arrangement
was entered into on May LIST by the house
painters of Chicago and the leading con-
tractors that the eight-hour system should
operate from that date. provided the paint
ers would not ask for an increase of pay.
The contractors having recently announced
their intention to return to the ten-hour
plan. the painters held meeting to-day to
decide what course to pursue. A general
strike was favored by many, but finally
compromise was agreed to whereby the
employees of j. F. Sullivan and II. j. Null
ligan, two of the largest contractors in the
city, will strike tomorrow. It. is under
stood that if this does not bring the con-
tractors to terms other firms will be locked
out until they are forced to Weld.

observations OF Current Events
From a minneapolis Standpoint.
Dempsey has scarcely treated Cardiff,
Minneapolis OF the Northwest with any
show Of decency, and has certainly done
nothing to add to his reputation while here.
His bouts with Norton at st. Paul and
Mohler at Minneapolis were the faintest
kind of exhibitions. and he gave no oppor-
UNITY for people to observe what he was
made of. A match with Cardiff would
have answered double purpose. Itwould
have given Dempsey, If he won, an I'M
doubted standing in the Northwest. 1t
would have made Cardiffs word good, i'll
case he won, and would probably have
shut him up forever if he lost. 1t can
only be regarded now as a square back
down, and Minneapolis is very much dis
appointed over it. The coming of Mitchell,
however, will compensate all this.
-
Tom Cannon is back again, and see has
brought his mouth with him. Nothing can
be said about him until after his match with
the Jap, which will test him and either vim
dictate him or show him up. 1t cannot be
denied that public opinion regards his chal-
lenge to MuldOon as rather in the light of
speculation, with Muldoon as an advertise
ment. But if Tom shall throw Sorakichi
all will be well. 1t is generally believed
the Jap wrestles for all there is in him, and
will not hippodrome. lie is good man,
and if Cannon can win against him, Can
non is good man. The Jap goes in to
mean business, and has not learned the
American art of the hippodrome.

Clough might take it into his head to stop

badgering was quite amusing. ''We can't

spent the entire day in her apartments at
the Gilsey house. She was scarcely through
breakfast when the church bells began
ringing and it became evident that she was
not going to attend divine service anywhere.
The excuse given for the non-performance
of this religious duty were a desire
to avoid public notice and the re-
straint placed upon her by the death of
her grandfather. The Folsoms had an early
luncheon and dined at $50 o'clock. The
ladies read the papers and occupied them
selves in attending to correspondence. A

Minneapolis and st. Paul went into the
series without any preliminary practice,
and naturally lost the opening games 1t is
my prediction both of them will continue
improving as the series progresses. Min
