club that the services Of Mr.. G. N. Smith Of
Earlsville, ILL.,, as standing judge have been
secured for the races that are to occur on the
1st I'd, Sd and 5th Of July. Mr.. Smith has

of all who attended the meeting there at that
time. He has had very large experience in
that business, and, while q rigid discipline
rian, is impartial and just. Most Of the driv-
ers know him, and all have a healthy respect
for him.

has been sold by Commodore Kittson to Mr..
r. o. N. Ford of New York city for 5000. Be-
fore purchasing him Mr.. Ford tried him
thoroughly under the saddle and in harness,
and found the magnificent animal just what
he wanted.

Indignantly.

Fact, gents he told me so. I can't
last much longer. Pm most gone now"
''Look here" said one of the brokers,
hoarsely, we're pretty hungry, too-but-
see that man going across to that saloon
there? We've been watching for him to
come along. We intended to go into the
saloon close behind him as if we were

Pardee Quite Lame.

Wilkes Spirit: We met Maj. Hubbard on
Monday evening, June II, returning from
Jerome Park where Pardee is at present So
journIng. The major has not the most en-
couraging news to report of the splendid son
of Alarm and Sister of Mercy. Pardee Is still
quite lame, and there is no immediate hope OF
his return to the training stable Pardee's
lameness, the major states, is Lot due to his
old foot trouble, as has been supposed. In
his race with Miss Woodford for the Harlem
stakes. he was at the mare, running as full Of
courage as lion, when he picked up stone,
the bruse injuring the frog. Pardee was in
tended by nature for a great race-horse-one
of the best that has worn iron; but he has
been une of the most unfortunate, and to the
public, who only judge by what they see, his
merit may never be known,

Still, It was the intention to start Fannie at
this meeting She was in fine shape
and a few days before the entries closed she
showed 2:2O and repeat in 2:17 very easy.
Tho next day, however, it was noticed in her
exercise that she was q little sore. and an ex-
animation satisfied me she was suffering from
slight attack of rheumatism. AS there
were no houors to be won I could not bring
myself to think of Furnishing an animal who
had served her ow ner SO well by putting her
in q position that she might be compelled to
trot when not in condition. That is the rea-
son she was not entered, and it is probable
she has tretted her last race"

How Mary Anderson should Kiss.

Mary Anderson should learn to kiss, says
the Deadwood Nugget, and kiss according
to Hoyle. Kiss SO that after the deal she
would leave royal flush ON the cheeks of
the kissee. If Mary would pay little more
| attention to kissing she could cultivate an
article that would cause the footlights to
pale with envy, and make the stage car
penter pound his ear on his tool-chest with
admiration. She is built right to kiss with
tn inning effect. Her lips are full and red;
er neck is swan-lke; she could approach
IN n from the rear, lean over his Shout
er, look down through his eyes into his
o OTIS. glue her lips to his, draw in her
rea tn, compress her lips for an instant,
hen suddenly part them-biff! bang! and

somebody to turn the hose ON them.
