SENATOR woLCoTTS ROMANCE.
How He Sacrificed n Bride For a Trip

How He Sacrificed Bride For Trip to
Europe.
CHICAGO, January 13.-There is a
romance in the life of Ed Wolcott. who was
last night nominated for Senator from
Colorado, known to but Q few intimate
friends in Chicago, where the plot de-
veloped. Wolcott graduated at Yale Col
lege in the same class with Louis james,
the actor, and, having fitted himself
for the law, came West a "briefess
barrister" in the most literal sense, and
located in Chicago. He didn't remain
here permanently, however. and his
failure to do so was due to a love affair with
the handsome daughter of Judge Cation. 1t
was case of mutual affection, inspired at
their first meeting, which occurred at
swell reception. He was socially conspic-
uous while here, and their subsequent meet
ings but confirmed the impression made.
They became engaged, and the day was set
for the wedding and all preparations made
for the event.
Suddenly Wolcott informed Miss Cation
that the wedding must be postponed for
year, as he was compelled to take trip
abroad. She consented, but when the case
was placed before her parents they utterly
refused to sanction the union, and declared
that she must never marry him. Subse-
quently Miss Cation married another gentle
man, and now resides in Chicago, while
WoIcott went to Colorado and rapidly
forged to the front. He is yet on the sunny
side of 80 and possessed of immense wealth,
lives in princely style, and entertains with
q lavish hand

A Local Veteran of the Track Tells How to
Train Them.
The following interview with Mr.. Samuel
Keys, of this city, is published in the Horse
man this week:
Sam, let us talk about PAGERS and how you
train and drive them to win."
That's too much of a question for me to
answer and make it useful to the boys. I've
heard of men training by the book, and that
one of them in driving heat forgot his lesson.
OF course he hadn't time to slow up and study
the book, as he used to do in exercising, SO he
was all at sea and lost the race. / may say gen.
orally that try to understand the nature, con-
stitution and peculiarties of my subject in
hand. No two are alike. They need different
work and feeding What suits one don't agree
with the other fellow at all, and you must
guard against dulling the edge after you have
it honed right. If so, there will be fewer of
days in the campaign.
Now, there was my old partner, MagooZler,
that made record of 2:2OH more than 70 years
ago. He was a very even-handed horse. Give
him plenty of clean hay and oats on time,
mashes and grass when necessary, also thor.
ough grooming and regular work with kind
treatment always, and he could be depended
upon to pace good race.
Lucy, 214, was an independent, don't-care
kind of mare, but when just at fine edge she
would make the talent look little out. No
race was too long for her, as you know"

The Locomotive Engineers Want Another
Head to the Brotherhood.
CHICAGO, January ia local newspa-
per announces to-day that Chairman Cav
ner, of the special committee which recently
cettled the CO." strike, is the coming sue
SCISSOR of P. M. Arthur as Grand Chief Engi-
neer of the Brotherhood. Gavner is still in the
West, and will soon go to New York. He
himself will not admit that he is candi-
date, but he is free in criticising Mr.. Ar
thurs management. Said an ex-strlker,
now filing comfortable position in another
business:
1t is an open secret that Chief Arthur will re-
sign before the opening of the next session OF
the brotherhood. He knows as well as anybody
that he can never be Reelected s that ana
he has other interests commanding ms
attention. Mr.. Arthur was first elected
in 1874. He Is now worth over S5O0OOO, and can
afford to retire. He may have been a great
man for the Brotherhood, but he never won
strike"
'Has the Brotherhood ever won a striker
Not under Arthur's management. His hrst
failure was with the Boston and Maine Rail-
road. He tried to settle it and then ordered
strike. Everything was in favor of the engin-
eers but they were completely beaten. Then
came the Reading strike, in which we were
whipped out of our boots. The Grand Trunk
strike was similar failure, and so was the
strike on the Brooklyn elevated roads. In this
latter strike Arthur had so anragonized the
knights of Labor that members of their union
resigned good jobs to take the places of our
men. The result was that we were beaten in
side of 3o hours. Arthur repaid the Knights
when their men struck on the Reading; they
repaid him when the Brotherhood men struck
on the o."

A GOOD SUGGESTION.

Jim Connors Expands a Little on Dunkerly's
Offer.
Jim Connors, the wrestler. called at this office
last night to reply to the offer of James Dunk
erly, published in this paper yesterday Con-
nors made a very sensible statement as fol-
lows:
~ think that something more beneficial than
a single wrestling match can be arranged Tor
the benefit of the sufferers of the Wood street
accident OF course l will wrestle Dunkerly,
but l think we can arrange an evenings ath-
letic entertainment of a very high order. For
instance we have in the city athletes of all
kinds, including frst-class boxers. Why can't
we get two or four good boxers, horizontal bar
performers club swingers and other athletes,
the whole to conclude with match between
Dunkerly and myself, If this can be arranged
want the Carpenters Union to take charge OF
all the receipts. OF course every performer
will appear free"

THE CHINESE GOING.
Ii Mong Kow Says All Sin VIII Leave
America in Ten Years.

OTTAWA, ONT. January 1S.-Li Mong
Kow, Chinese agent in British Columbia,
was here to-day transacting business with
the Government. Of Chinese immigration
he said:
The Canadian people do not seem to want
the Chinese, but we are much better treated
here than in the United States, though the
people in British Columbia are afraid of our
people because they work so much cheaper. 1
am often asked why our countrymen never
settle here. and reply the trouble is in regard
to the law. If all restrictions were removed
there would be a greater influx of Chinese into
this country. Our people are good, peaceful, law
abiding citizens, and would like to settle in
Canada. 1 have now been Is years in the
United States and Canada, and like your
manners and customs better than do those of
my country. Our Government is trying to keep
the Chinese away from the United States. The
Emperor has a just conception of his duty, and
issued an edIct recalling all my countrymen In
the United States. But he does not understand
their position. Many Chinese are settled there,
and they have amassed wealth and property.
To leave at once would be to sacrifice every
thing I have no doubt they will obey the Or
der gradually, and that in ten years all will be
at home.

SPEAKING of the Rowe White matter Henry
Chadwick says: THE Detroit club have vir-
tually sold the release of White to the Boston
club, ami of Rowe to the Pittsburg club, and
these clubs having accepted these players, it
follows that they are now respectively on the
reserved list of these two clubs and can SO be
held year after year-as understand the mat
term a sort of League bondage. The question
is how does the League law stand against our
common law? 1t is very certain that neither
White nor Rowe can play in Buffalo this year.
All they can do is to run that club without
PLAYING on the team. Both knew the law gov
erning the League contracts when they signed
with Detroit, and both must abide by what they
voluntarily agreed should control their services
as ball players"

A TIP FROM OLD PROBS.
The Warm Weather Does Not Indicate a
Late Spring.

Late Spring.
PROVIDENCE, January 13.-According
to the following extract from a semi-private
letter received here the Weather Depart
ment apparently does not believe that the
present mild weather indicates late winter
and cold spring:
SIGNAL OFFICE, WASHINGTON, January10.
The significance of the unusual weather con-
ditions for the past seven months can be ex-
planned only with reference to the abnormal
distribution of atmospheric pressure over the
Northern hemisphere. Under the doctrine of
averages we could reasonably look for an open,
mild winter, since the late spring and summer
was colder than usual, and to counterbalance
the deficiency of temperature in the spring and
summer there should be an excess in the win
ter Just now occurring. This, however, cannot
be regarded as responsible for future prophe-
cies, since the scientific use of the average can
only refer to very prolonged periods, and can
not safely be referred to in special short
periods such as six months or year, in case
of temperature and rainfall. My personal
opinion is that no one has reasonable ground
for predicting late spring on the simple basis
of the present winter being SO far mild and
open. - A. W. GREELEY,
Chief Signal Officer.
