Some idea of what Roscoe Conk-

from his eulogy Of Oliver p. Morton,
delivered shortly after that statesman's

"Death," he said, "is natures supreme

weird and solemn shadows, illumined
by the rays of Christianity, is still the
ground which man shudders to ap-
proach. The grim portals and the
narrow house seem in the lapse of cen
turics to have gained rather than lost

JOCKEYS KILLED.
A Sad Result of Steeple- Chasing in
New York.


Jockeys are Crushed.
UNEw York, June 1.-THE meeting of
the American Jockey Club, which ends
tomorrow, will pass into racing history
as the most fated ever held at Jerome.
Marred as it is with the death OF two stee-
ple-chase riders-the first Charles Cross,
who was injured on Saturday, died this
morning at the hospital, and Ben Pope,
who probably died tonight from injuries,
received in the steepie-chase to-day. As
to the cause of the accidents to-day it may
be said they were beyond human control,
other than they are always likely to occur
in steeple-chases. Both men were ,liili.

riddensand wui many races at jerome,
Monmouth, Saratoga and elsewhere,
and was certainly the best colorcd stee-
ple-chase rider since the retirement of

West with Bob Niles, not only trained that
horse but had ridden him a winner at the
Cedarhurst meetings few weeks ago
where he won the Queens County hurdle
handicap. Both accidents Occurred at the

gin to tire. In Cross case the hors, was
probably little rank, and jumped before
the rider intended he should. he struck
the top of the hurdle, throwing the rider
out of the spldle, and then fell on him,
causing internal injuries. In Pope's case
he ran out clear in the lead, was
the first at the hurdle, the horse
jumped short, hit the hurdle, throwing

the hurdles was OF extra height, but the
