thizers with Legitime had endeav-
ored TO get the men released, and
Hyppolite had become distrustfu of many
OF his officers. lie therefore had them
put to death. Capt. Miller said that Cape
Haytian was filed with Legiume's spies.

engaged carrying arms and other imple-

Haytian, for the use OF Hyppolite's men.

DOWN on THE SECOND DAYS RACB
EVENTS,
And twenty-five Hundred People 20 Home
Damp and Eicking-Ons Race Postponed
To-Day's Programme.

The second day of the spring race meet
inc of the West Virginia State Fair Asso-
citation showed features of q good, bad
and indifferent character There was one
very fine race and two others not nearly
40 god, while the weather was simply
beastly, and knocked out what promised
to be the most exciting event on the pro-
eramme. There was not much indication
of raiu during the early part OF the after
noon. and a vely stiff breeze was blowing
which tempered the heat. AT two O'CLOCK
the outlook for a crowd at the races was
very skinny indeed. There were hardly
200 souls present. But about this time
stream of people began to pour IN on
foot and in vehicles, and 1t
kept pouring in until at least 3 O'clock at
which time it was variOusly estimated
that there we're from 1000 to $500 people
present. The grand stand was more than
half filed with a splendid audience, among
whom were a large number OF ladies' Inc
ouarter stretch was dotted over rather
thickly with carriages and buggies, and
great many people were scattered along
the fences and around the pool sellers
boxes AS it turned out it was indeed
fortunate for the Association that the rain
held on au long as it did, and it was un-
fortunate for the spectators that it did not
wait awhile longer.
The Spring Meeting has been an expert
ment, but up to date the experiment has
not bad a fair show, and just how success
ful it would have been under favor. BILE
auspices is hard to tell. Unless the weather
is good to-day and the people turn out in
pretty good numbers, the Association will
no doubt come out considerably behind, in
which case the probabilities are that we
will have no more spring race meetings
until the city grows somewhat larger.
Yesterdays events will be found record

al.Iack the RIpper.N

A man was seen standing in the alley
back of Beltz & Flading's planning mill a.
an early hour yesterday morning, and as
he had handkerchief over his face up tC
his eyes, and stood as still as statue, peo'
pie passing along Eoff street were attracted
BY his strange action. The fellow stood
with his hands behind his back and the
word went round that he had Ions
butcher knife in his hand. Qnite crowd
of people collected on the opposite side o
the street and the members of the dem
monde who reside in that vicinity were
badly scared, thinking that perhaps
second Jack the Ripper" had appeared
on the scene. The police were notified
and Officers Gaus and West
went out to where the chaI
was standing. Gaus, having been in
formed that Jack" had butcher knife,
commanded him to take his hands from be-
hind him, which he refused to do. But
he complied when the officer pointed pop
at him. Then the handkerchief was torn
from his fsce and the features of pork
packer named Fritz was disclosed. He
was taken 10 the City Building and locked
up, but was afterwards released. He ex-
planned that he was merely having fun,
but such amusement IS against the law,
and should be punished.
