The Production of Fast Horses.

One striking feature of horse breeding
as at present carried on is the great num-
Der Of trotters of high speed regularly
produced. 1t seems to be settled fact
that, by dipping deeply and judiciously
into the blood lines of trotters noted for
purity of gait and for their souneness, at
least 2:30 trotters can be produced with a
certainty. The production of 2:20 horse
is. of course, more difficult, but they are
becoming plentiful. The best blood lines
can be relied upon almost as much as in
the production of the running horse,
however true it may be that some of the
best results in trotting have come from
unexpected sources. 1t is this element Of
uncertainty that has given good deal Of
complexity to breeding trotters and a
consequent difference of opinion among
horsemen as to the best methods. Some
are inclined to put more faith in one side
of the parentage than in the other, but
the results of any season seem to show
that it is difficult to lay down any rule in
this respect Many of this years fastest
horses and best campaigners have short
pedigrees on the dams side, but recently
members Of the brood-mare families have
developed quite as much speed. These
matters are the constant study of horse
breeders, and new light is now likely to De
thrown upon them every year by such
fairs as that of the New England Breeders
Association, an association which seems
to possess less of the purely sporting char
acter than some, and which evidently has
genuine disposition to build up the trot-
ting horse in New England, so as to get
the maximum of endurance and speed

FASTER MAILS.
Another Important Reduction in the
Time from Ocean to Ocean.

Another Important Reduction in the
Time from Ocean to Ocean.
WASHINGTON, October 26,h-General Su.
perintendent Bell of the Railway Mail
Service has made public some important
changes in the transcontinental fast mail
service, which are to take effect November
TO- 1889. On March 4, 1889, the time OF
going west from New York to San Fran
cisco was 100 hours and 10 minutes, which
was reduced to lis hours and As minutes
on May 4, 1889. By November the sched-
ule of fast mail time going west from ocean
to ocean will be 10S hours and As minutes.
One very important feature is the fact that
the train will reach San Francisco early in
the day, and mails will be distributed by
JOAN. On March 4th the time from San
Francisco to New York was 141 hours. On
May 4th the time was reduced to III hours,
and the new schedule will reduce the time
from ocean to ocean TO Ill hours and 30
minutes-that is. 4 days, 10 hours and 80
minutes, leaving San Francisco a: P. N.
after the close of business and arriving at
New Y ork at 1885 A. NJ. with mails so as
sorted as to permit of immediate delivery.
This is q gain of 29l hours on the March
schedule and gain of 191 hours on the
May schedule but as arrivals at both ends
will be in the morning instead of the even
ing, it means gain OF full day over the
May schedule in both directions. The
service for all large cars will be adjusted to
unite with trsnscontiDental trains at either
Chicago, Council Bluffs or Omaha, so that
the advantages will be reflected throughout
the entire East and West.
There will be no change of cars west of
Omaha, a distance of l $40 miles.
The new arrangement carries with it
some very important features, as the Cen
eral Superintendent of the Railway Mail
Service will hereafter have the right to fix
the schedule from ocean to ocean, pro-
vided it is not made faster than the quick
est limited passenger trains over the same
lines. This new service is said to be of the
highest importance to the transcontinental
business interest of the country.

was not extravaganza to say that, although
there were only two millions of people in
thirteen States at the time of the Revolu-
ton, the group of statesmen that proceeded
from them were a match for any in the
whole world and were superior to those of
aHy one epoch.

SAN Francisco, October 26th.-Hawaiian
adyices received to-day state that Albert
Loomens was convicted on October 18th
OF treason, for participation in the recent
insurrectionary movement in Honolulu.
The Jury recommended him to the mercy
OF the Court. A Chinaman, Ho Fon, for
connection with the same matter, was con-
yicted of conspiracy October 18th. The
testimony given in behalf OF the defense in
Loomens' case showed that the King had
knowledge Of and acquiesced in the revo-
lutionary movement. Reports are current
that the natives are subscribing for the de-
Tense of Wilcox, leader of the revolt.
Considerable evidence is said to exist that
the majority of the natives are in SYM
pathy with the insurrect1onists.

Version of 1t.
LOUISVILLE, October 26th.-Judge Lewis
is in possession of the Harlan Courthouse.
He has sixty-fve well-armed men and is
confident of capturing Howard and his
party. An account of the feud has been
received here. giving the stories of both
sides. Towards claim is that the trouble
originated in the killing in self-defense of
Robert Turner in 1882, and the placing of
Howard under indictment for the killing
of William Turner in a quarrel which
ensued. He says he cannot get fair trial
and therefore resists arrest. The Turner'S.
represented by Judge Lewis, claim that
Robert and William Turner, were muir
dered without provocation and that Will
son Howard must be brought to trial. The
Towards, they say, greatly outnumber
the Turner's, and can secure justice at
least. Judge Lewis is not relative of the
Turner's, and was drawn into the fight
only in the discharge of his duty.

BERLIN, October 26th.-Freytsg's book
Oh the late Emperor Frederick has created
a sensation. Prior to its publication Bis
marck advised but did not insist upon the
suppression of certain passages in the book.
His complaisance is attributed to Freytag's
di.courses On the unwise interference of
the Empress. Another passage which is
grateful to Bismarck describes Emperor
Frederick as afflicted with morbid moods
and as being old in mind and body long
before the fatal disease attacked him. His
vital energy, the book discloses, was no
longer BETTING the heir to the imperial
crown. He often thought to abdicate in
favor of his son.

on the Turkish Treaty.
BERLIN, October 26th.-The proposed
conference between Bismarck, Consul
Kalnoky and Premier Crispi has been post
poned until after Emperor Williams visit
to Turkey. The political Importance of
the event is not now denied. Bismarck
project is to construct second defensive
line behind Dreibund, consisting of Eng
land and Turkey, not committed by treaty
to the special purposes of the Central
European Alliance. but linked by kindred
interests hence he is maneuvering to
commit Lord Salisbury to the new treaty
with Turkey relating to the permanent oc-
cupation OF Europe. Bismarck's project
in regard to the Balkan settlement, as COM
municated to the Gar, has led to the
temporary cessation OF hostile Russian
intrigues.
The Gar has certainly consented to per-
NIT the Chancellor TO try TO realize some
npod,s civendi, holding himself free to re-
sumo independent action in the event OF
the scheme failing.

Baron Reuter- Again Falls Victim to His
Sharp Practices.

Sharp Practices.
LONDON, October 26th.-There is loud
lamentalion among the possessors OF Per-
sian bank shares, tor news comes from st.
Petersburg that the Shah has presented to
a set of favored Russians precisely the same
monopoly which Baron Reuter- secured
from his Highness here, and so there are
already two big companies in the field.
Baron Reuter- is furious. Sixteen years
ago, on the occasion of the Shah's last visit,
the Baron paid the expenses OF the costly
jaunt, and got concessions which would
nave been worth millions if the royal con-
fidence man had not repudiated every one
of them the moment he set foot again in
his own dominion. During his last visit,
it is now said, the Shah found the Baron's
duns rather troublesome, and to quiet him
gave him another lot Of choice concessions.
1t looks now as though the Shah had re-
pudiated this agreement as he did the first,
and that the Baron is again the victim of
sharp practice.

GOOD rE1pLARs AT WAR.
A Religious Test that May Disrupt the
Order.


SEATTLE wv T), October 26th.-The
Good Templars of this city are all torn up
over the question of religion, and contro-
versy threatens to disrupt the order. An
attempt is being made TO drive out all
members who don't believe in the God of
the Bible as defined by stricter members,
and many members in Seattle, as well as
other parts of the country, are about to re-
sign rather than submit to sectarian DOM
ination. The controversy began with a
change in the qualifications for member
ship, so that they read: 1.-THE Supreme
Ruler of the universe" instead of "A Su-
preme Ruler of the universe"
In his report to the Right Worthy Grand
Lodge of the World last summer, Mr..
Turnbull Right Worthy Grand Chief
Templar of the World, defined this 10
mean God as defined in the Bible, and he,
being a rigid Presbyterian, ruled that this
definition meant the Trinity. Thus all but
Trinitarian Christians were barred out.
This report was adopted and thus became
the law of the Order.
This decision was transmitted from the
universal body to the Right Worthy Grand
Lodge of the United States, and thence to
the Grand Lodge of Washington. That body
met at Chsutauqua last August, and although
Grand Chief Templar Bushell recon-
mended that the rule beSnot enforced, he
was overruled, and was instructed to trans
init Mr.. Turnbulls ruling to the subordi-
nate Lodges to be acted on. This was &C.
cordingiy done.
A printed circular from the Right Wor-
thy Grand Lodge OF the World came before
Pacific Lodge No. "a, of this city, last
"Wednesday evening, and it was ordered
that all members who could not comply
with the requirements of Mr.. Turnbull to
resign, and to expel all who declined to do
30. A discussion followed. Many men,
bers who could comply with the rule con-
scientiously, objected to such severe test,
contending that religious test was incon-
sistent with the objects of the order.
No action was reached on the matter as
the consideration of it was deferred to
future meeting. but the members declared
Openly in the meeting and now declare
publicly that they will withdraw rather
than submit to any religious test.
Although Grand Worthy Chief Templar
Bushell is liberal and comes under the ban,
he urges subordinate lodges to comply
with the law The new law is of far.
reaching effect for in Christian countries it
shuts out all Unitarians, Agnostics and
Atheists. As many members of the pre-
scribed sects in the United States are
closely welded to the original principle of
Good Templarism, abstinence from intoxi-
eating liquors, there is in consequence
a strong feeling in favor of breaking away
from the parent order rather than have
the order crippled by a narrow sectarian
test Although the controversy has been
in progress for long time, this is the first
place where crisis has been reached, and
the first time it has become public.
