PaStime.
The Olympic games at San Fran
ciscoon Washington's birthday were
a great success, but it is thought our
northern cousins were a little too
elated over the exhibition races given
by Bethune. Certainly he tied the
record for the 100 yards, but in his
race against Hart at Washington
Gardens he did three yards faster
time, if one can believe that the time
was taken correctly on that occasion.
Either he must have been a little OFF
color last Tuesday, or the writer on
the Tribune gave him the best of it
when he timed him in his racs
against Hart. His run of 220 yards in
% 1-5 was fine piece Of sprint run
ming, but hardly good enough to en-
courage one to back him against, say
Henry Hutchins of Putney, England.
Hutchins, it is well known, can beat
81 As for that distance, difference
between the two men of something
like four yards. The writer has seen
all the English professional sprinters,
and none among them is to his mind
such taking runner as Bethune.
The difficulty with sprinters is to get
and keep them in the best of con-
dition, and if Bethune would only
take care of himself it would pay any
one to take him across the herring
pond, where there is plenty of money
to be won by man of his ability.
Racing.
The 3O-mile race between Gard
Pugh and Miguel Prior at the Ag,i-
cultural Park, on Washington's birth
day, was well worth witnessing, and
will do great deal towards restoring
to these contestants some of the popu-
larity they lost by the last exhibition
between Pugh and Anderson. Both
men rode like demons and their
horses will be sore from their exer-
tions for some time to come. The
time, :08, was only a minute and a |
ha outside the record.
The forthcoming three cornered
contest is exciting an immense

ABOVE AFFAIR ENDS IN A TRAGEDY

Adispatch from North Adams, Mass,
SAWS: "A startling story comes from
Hancock, a town bordering on New
York State, about fifteen miles from
this place, without railroad or tele-
praph connections. Carrie Brocka-
way. eighteen years old, the handsome
daughter of farmer Brockaway, and
Washington Sweet had been meeting
secretly. Brockaway and his sons
became incensed, armed themselves
with shot-guns and revolvers and set
out for Sweets house TO kill him.
Sweet barricaded the doors of his res
idence. and when the Brockaways de-
lnanded admittance fired upon them
i he bullet took effect in the leg OF one
of the sons. A lively fusilade followed
until Sweet ceased firing. Carrie
Brockaway appeared on the scene
lust as her relatives forced the door
Sweet was found on the floor appar-
entity dead. with a bullet wound in
the right shoulder Carrie screamed
upbraided her brothers and father for
her lovers death, and, Selling cary
ing knife from the table, which was
partially set for dinner, cut her throat
and falling across Sweets body, oled
to death before a doctor could be sum-
moned. The wounded Brockaw way
was brought into the house, when 1t
was found that his hip was shattered
bv the charge from Sweets gun. He
is in critical condition. Sweet was
hit by bullet from revolver, whi III
passed upward and lodged in his
neck.

the NEXT G0YERK0aSHip.

Many men OF more or less available
ity are being mentioned, as probable
candidates for the next Governorship
OF West Virginia. 1t isnow seasonable
to bring out these names and to dis
cuss the merits and qualifications OF
those suggested. There seems to be
a sentiment, comparatively wide
spread. that the Democratic nominee
should be a man who neither ex-
pressed decided opinions or took sides
in the contest in our own party last
wear. This is all bosh. We don't
think much Of the man who didn't
express himself pretty decidedly on
those questions. He must be either
very weak or very cowardly. TO be
sure, no extremist on either side need
be chosen. but even an extremist
would be better than milk and water
man.
The Democrats are not likely TO
have any walkover this year, there
fore their candidate for Governor
must be man who will command the
confidence and respect of the whole
people; he must be man OF high
character and OF dignity; he must be
a man who can ba trusted in every
emergency-who will not betray his
party or his constituents to further
selfish DIS; he should b. a man who
will reflect credit on hi, parry and
great credit on his Sta-a a, Aome AID
abroad; he should b. bold. honest
and outSpoken, yet al the same time
liberal ogres.ive and discreet. With
sloh candida the Democracy OF
West Virginia caa win next autumn,
thar fore such all one should be Sc
lected
W. think Hon. f. Boyd Faulkner,
of Mar insblrt, Ills the bill.

A BLASPHEMER'S DEATH.

The Lenox Iowa Time Table re-
lates the death of q man in Taylor
county under the following circum-
stances. "A. w. Futile, living in the
northwest part of the county, met
an untimely death on Wednesday of
this week. He was man well-known
in this community and quite wealthy.
4 week ago, when the 1irSt blizzard
came. he made use of the expression.
that if there was such a being as God
Almighty, he was without love or feel
ing for humanity or he would not
send such storms upon them, at the
same time declaring that If another
such storm came he would go TO eli
mate that had never been cursed with
such storms, and escape the vigilance
of the Almighty. The storm came on
Tuesday morning and he began prep
ara;ion for departure. Securing
large trunk he packed it, and Wednes-
day morning went to load 1t into
wagon to haul to Villisca, where he
expected to take the afternoon train.
He had one end of the trunk In a
wagon-box, and was raising the other
end from the ground when his feet
slipped from under him, and the
trunk fell back upon him, the sharp
edge striking him upon the neck as he
lay upon the ground. His neck was
broken and he died almost instantly"

prene Court of the United States by
the Senate on Monday last. He re-
ceived the vote of all the Democrats
and of Senators Riddleberger, Stan

was bitterly opposed by senators
Evarts, Sherman, Edmunds, Hoar,
Ingalls, and other Republicans. They
had many reasons for their action,
which, boiled down, amounted to
this: Mr. Lamar was Southern man
and Democrat. Mr.. Villas was also
at the same time confirmed as Secre-
