WANTS A GREAT HORSE.
w. L. Scott on the Lookout for British
Stock.

w. L. Scott on the Lookout for British
Stock.
We understand Hon. w. L. Scott is casting
about for another imported stallion. AS is
well known, Mr.. Scott has in Rayon dor
horse still quite young but his stud is also filling
up with daughters of that horse, and he is de
sirous of securing one with which they will
cross. 1t is said he was disappointed in not
getting Galore. and he is very much disposed
toward son of Galopin. seeing the success Of
that sire through st. Simon, Galliard. Dono-
van, etc. That he has priced some of them
would appear from the fact that he complains
"at the high price they ask for good horse.
of Portland will have two Galopin stations he
might be willing to sell either Donovan or st.
Simon while his other horse, Ayrshire although
a son of Hampton, is from Galopin mare.
Probably the price of any of them would be
so high as to cause Mr.. Scott to decline. II
there was any choice at this distance from the
horses we should prefer st. Simon. He is from
St. Angela, by King Tom, and we have an idea
he was better horse than Donovan. This we
are aware is flying in the face of popular feel
der. That he is an exceptionally good horse is
of course true, but as we follow English rae
ing we think he has been what is called a
lucky horse. The 3-year-olds of last season
were a very bad lot. We doubt if Donovan
could have won the Derby and Leger in Or
monde's Melton's, Bend Or's or Petrarch's
years. To win those races does not always
prove a horse a good one. Kingcraft and Sir
Bevys won the Derby, Ossian won the St. Leger,
but they were not great horses. The running
of the English 3-year-olds this year all goes to
show them bad. ST. Simon, on the other hand,
met some good horses, he was never beaten, he
could cover all distances, and he is success at
the stud already.-Sptrtt of the Times.

PROBABLY A FATAL BLOW.
James Lane Struck With Beer Bottle in a
sDeak-Easy i DR.. Golden Says That
Death May Result.

James Lane Struck With Beer Bottle In a
sDeak-Easy = DR.. Golden Says That
Death May Result.
Between II and o'clock yesterday morn
ing fight occurred on Soho street, between
Fifth and Center avenues, that may result
fatally to James Lane, one of the partici-
pants. Lane. with about half dozen COM
panions, was in a speak-easy near his home
on Soho street, when Hugh DOYLE, with
several other men, came along and desired
to gain entrance.
The proprietress refused them admittance,
and Doyle kicked the door open. Lane and
several others ran out when this happened,
and when they found out what occurred
Lane demonstrated with Doyle, saying:
That's not right, Doyle, man wouldn't
kick in the door of womsn's house that
way"
Doyle replied that if Lane did not shut
up he would kick him in also, to which
Lane answered that he dare not try. Doyle
had bottle of beer in each OF his overcoat
pockets, and as Lane finished speaking he
pulled one Of the bottles out and struck him
over the head. Lane fell to the ground
with groan and soon became unconscious,
- ASAA WAASA ~ AoS ANN Az
covered.
As soon as il was learned that Lane was
hurt, Doyle and his friends went home and
Lanes friends carried him to his home, a
few doors above. DR.. Golden was called,
but could do but little for the injured man.
He says the skull is not fractured and the
skin is not broken, but he thinks there is
congestion of the brain, and death may re-
suit.
Inspector McAleese and Detective Fitz-
gerald arrested Doyle Just as he was about
to make his escape, at his home last night.
They also arrested Albert Neville, young
man who was in the crowd, but afterward
released him. he and the balance Of the
crowd will be subpensed as witnesses in the
case.
Doyle and Lane are both young married
men, live near each other and work in the
same mill. The police authorities will
enter suitagainst the speak-easy proprietcrs.
At late hour last night Lane was still
alive. but unconscious.

AN INTERESTING QUESTION.
Leading Authorities support an Answer
Given in This Paper.

Lending Authorities support an Answer
Given in This Paper.
Invariably there is considerable interest in
answers to questions asked through the columns
of this paper, but one answer recently given has
more than ordinary interest attached to it.
D Some time ago a subscriber, signing himself
h. u, asked the following question:
We have been reading your valuable paper for q
number Of years, and have noticed the correct
ness Of many decisions you have made. We have
no authorized pool rooms in the city, but we have
a man here who makes q book on the street. He
takes his entries from the daily newspapers You
are aware these daily papers often get name
spelled wrong. We played horse the paper hav-
ing printed Easter but ii should have been Faster
This horse won the race, paying good odds. Now
this bookmaker refuses to pay the bets because he
says Easter didn't start. We claim we won our
mOney, as we played the horse that won the race,
as we are not accountable for the errors Of the
daily papers Now we wish you to decide this for
us in the next issue Of your paper, and greatly
oblige several parties interested.
The answer given in this paper was to the ef-
feet that all that could be claimed was H. c. Is
own money back. This answer was not accepted
as correct, and the question,was submitted to an
Eastern sporting paper, who submitted it to
Cridge d Co., the famous bookmakers. It was
also submitted to other leading authorities, and
in every instance the decision originally given in
this paper has been sustained. The question
is an interesting one, as there ia no written
rule on the matter.

EPECIAL TELEGRAM TO THE DIsPArCH.i
NEW YORK, December Sin response to
a call from John G. Calhoun, President of
the New York Southern Society, about 100
gentlemen assembled in the private dining
room OF the New York Hotel this afternoon
to draft resolutions touching the death of
Jefferson Davis, to hear some informal
tributes to his memory, and to arrange for
a memorial funeral service to be held in
this city at the same hour that the New Or
leans ceremonies take place.
F. Q. Morehead, son of Governor More
head, of Kentucky, who was classmate of
Jefferson Davis at West Point, introduced
General j. G. Calhoun, who was appointed
Chairman, and stated the purpose of the
meeting. In behalf OF the representatives
of the State of Mississippi present, Colonel
W. Il. Hardy spoke for that State with
great feeling at some length. He said:
COLONEL HARDY's EULoGY.
If we view him in the early davs of his vigor-
Gus manhood, at his hospitable home at Brier-
field, where the great Father of Waters flows
we see him as the genial neighbor, the devoted
husband, loving father, kind master. successful
planter, polished gentleman, student and
scholar. II we follow him to the lower House
of Congress, we behold him in his relation to
his co-members, courtly knight, whose word
was the symbol of truth itself. whose conduct
was the soul of honor, and whose lofty patriot
ism and fidelity were above the faintest whis-
pers of criticism. And when called by his coun-
try TO defend her flag upon foreign soil. we find
him at the head of his regiment on the en-
sanguined fields of Mexico. and especially at
Buena Vista, the very impersonation of SOL
dierly bearing and dauntless courage,
his regiment standing like an i'm.
penetrable wall of flaming fire that hurled
back In defeat the attacking legions of the
enemy. If we follow him to the Senate cham
bers of the United States we find him not only
the same courtiy gentleman and polished
orator, but the peer in craftsmanship, as Q
as in debate Of Clay, Webster. Gushing aid
other statesmen and patriots, whose names and
characters constitute one of the pages Of
American history, and when we behold him at
that last scene in the Senate chambers of the
United States when his great patriotic heart
throbbed with emotions of love for the old
flag and the whole country, yet, impelled by a
sense of duty to his own people, he bade fare

how the Washington Fielder Came to Sign
With the Chicago Club.

With the Chicago Club.
rsPEcIAL TELEGRAM TO THE DIsPArcHI
WASHINGTON, December S-The baseball
portions of Washington are much cut up over
the announcement that neither Wilmot nor
Hoy will be members of the Senatorial team
next season. The fact that Wilmot is to play
with the Chicago League Club in 1890
is substantiated by the official pro-
mitigation of his contract from League
headquarters. The circumstances which led
to the transfer of Wilmot to the Spalding con-
tingent are these: Wilmots first season here
was not a brilliant success because he was un-
well for long time and did not do himself or
