The Coming Turf Event.

NEW YoRK, June 2I.-There is but one topic
among the race going public to-day. Should the
weather be fne the greatest crowd that ever saw
match race viii journey to Sheepshead Bay
next Wednesday to see the battle royal between
Pplsifer's great Tenny and Higgins suburban
record breaker, Salvador. The race will be for
$4,000 side with 5000 ADDED by the association,
at mile and quarter, to carry lZ2 pounds
each. Haggin, in his letter to the
club officials accepting Mr.. Pulsifer's challenge,
said that he would match Salvador against
Tenny for any sum from $3.50 TO $50, 900. ON the
other hand Mr. Pulsifer feels so certain of his
crack four year-old's ability that he remarked
that after tine match was made that he was only
sorry he did not make it SO. GOO side instead of
$4,000. f'Snapper'' Garrison will ride Tenny
and Murphy win again make the effort of his
life to get Salvatore nose under the wire first.
Tenny's owner and many Who backed him for

Joint Discussion at Richardson
SDpciaI In the GaYette


RICHARDSON, TEX, June 21.-Hon.
Richard Morgan of Dallas and State
Senator Kimbrongh of Mesquite, the
former opposing the commission amend
ment in favor of Judge Cook for COVER
nor, the latter favoring the amendment
and ]. S. Hogg for governor, spoke
over four hours here this after
noon to a large and appreciative
audience. Both made strong speeches.
Mr.. Morgan took the ground that the
amendment was dangerous expert
meut, unnecessary, un-American, I'M
Democratic and poor substitute for gen.
uine railroad regulation. He showed
that the Interstate commission law was
of Republican origin, and read from a
speech of Senator Reagan in congress
showing thas gentleman opposed the,
commission feature of it as un-Demo5'
cratic and unnecessary to the principle of
free government. Mr.. Morgan thought
the Interstate law had more TO do with
existing evils in Texas than anything
else, and placed state commissions in the
same category. The legislature should
settle the question, and if better men
could be sent to the legislature this would
be done. The speaker showed that the
Marion Martin party was about to gobble
up the Democracy, and warned the peo-
pie not to depart from the old land marks
of the party.
Mr.. Kimbrough took strong grounds in
favor OF the commission He cited the
Democratic platforms of 1884, 1886 and
1883 in favor Of his position, claiming
that the party was pledged to give the
people some sort of relief and made the
point that the railroad plank of the Dali
las platform was identical IN substance
TO Judge Terrell's resolution, which Mr..
Terrell said all men could see meant a
commission. He believed that the con-
stitHtion commanded the legislature to
fix reasonable rates, but for fourteen
long years that body had failed
to solve the problem, and it was
high time the Democratic party
was redeeming its pledges to the people.
He showed that twenty-five other states
had commissioners and they worked
we'll, and it was abou: time Texas was
,srofittina By the example and experience
'6f our sister states. Georgia, he said |
had built more miles of railroad and |
prospered TO greater extent than ever
before. Rates in that state were from |
% to 70 per cent. lower than in Texas,

Special to the Gazette.
FoRr SMITH, AK, June H--William Alex

United States court. The facts in the case are
as follows: D. C. steGdman and Alexander
went from Arizona TO Oklahoma about the time
that country was opened, with lot of horses,

Most Beautiful and Artistic.

Neither the front nor the back is hinged. Both
screw on with long thread, making the watch
absolutely dustprCof and waterproof, which it
could not be if il were hinged.
With each watch there goes a guarantee by the
Manhattan Watch Company to keep it in order
for one year, free of all charge, and q guarantee
from the makers of the case, Joseph Fahys i
Co.. for fifteen years.
The face of this watch is precisely the same az
that of the gold watch and the movement is pre-
cisely the same. The difference between the
two watches is only in the case. The latter is OF
oxidized silver, acid eaten very neat and quaint
The movement is the quick train, with straight
inc lever escapement, with a direct acting
hand-set that permits accurate setting, and will
not allow the hands to move out of position
while setting. In the sweep second movement.
the secord hand is run direct from the move
ment train, insuring perfect motion, while the
dial train and hands are run by friction pinion
from side center. This gives all the adyan-
tages in time keeping qualities of the most deli
cately adjusted and expensive movement.
Each watch is put up in neat box, padded, to
carry it safely through the mails. In the box
are directions for setting the hands and regula-
the factory wnc tested and packed it. If on. re-
ceipt of the watch it does not regulate or keep
time, or is found out of order in any way; it Is
to be returned to the Manhattan Watch Com
pany, No. 2S4 Broadway, and it will either be
put in perfect condition a new one sent FaEB
OF ALL CHARGE. This guarantee is good for one
year, during which the Company agrees to
keep the watch in perfect running order
free of all charge. ALI repairs from accidents
the possessor of a Manhattan horse timer stop
watch Is able to return it to the company for
repairs at any time, knowing that the cost will
never be more than o trile.

yet the roads there are paying good
dividends and flourishing generally. He
defled Mr.. Morgan or any other anti
commission advocate TO show that any
state or country IN the world had ever
regulated railroads except by commits
sion. The object OF the opposition was
to defeat Jim Hogg and not to nominate
Cook or Hall, neither of whom stood the
ghost of a show.
Both speakers were attentively listened
to, but no converts were made on either
side. This place, however, is commits
sion and Hogg community.

LONDON, june 2l.-The duke of Clearance,
Prince Albert Victor, will enter upon the full
privileges of mans estate when he takes his
seat in the house of lords the coming week. 1t
Is trpe that he is more than twenty-six years
old, but heretofore he has been treated rather
as boy than as young man. The prince OF
Wales is conscious that his own very early
emancipation from parental care was rather a
misfortune th otherwise, and in the case of his
sons has steadily set his face against any preco-
Glous or premature lnde In1l Albert peri
pered young man. curiously free from royal airs
and graces, easily amused and fonder of quiet
life of simple recreation than of hard work or
stirring adventure. The next and the most mo-
mentous step in his career will be his marriage.
His friends are very anxious that he should
marry the Princess Victoria of Teck. The
Princess Mary, as she is commonly called, is
a very pretty, very gracious, thorough English
woman and the daughter of the most popular of
all English royal ladies as we'll.
FRANCE AFRAID OF FOREIGNERS.
All Englishmen are interested in the rigorous
enforcement of the law In regard to the residence
of foreigners in France. No foreigner can now
reside in any part of France for period exceed
ing four months without registering his
declaration. When he leaves community where
he has been residing he is bound to notify the
mayor and inform him of the place to which he
means to proceed. The mayor thereupon mott
fes the authorities of the community to which
the forei gner is about to remove, and especially
mentions the day of arrival, the foreigner fail
ing TO DO SO may be fined. Thus a perfect sur
VIGILANCE, as thorough as that of Russia, is
maintained over the alein population in

GALVESTON. Tex, June 21,-To-night das-

residence of Mrs. E. S. Wood, corner fremont

latter remarked: ''why do you keep such a
bright light burning in your bed rooms?'' Mrs.
Wood replied there was not light
burning in her room. but on turn
ing flames, and rushed
in and upstairs, and with the assistance of
neighbors extinguished the flames before the
fire department reached the place. Investiga-
ton disclosed tn e fact that the carpet and one
side of Mrs. Woods room saturated with
kerosene, and this saturation led out into the
hall into q room in the rear. A FIVE gallon and
a one gallon can was found empty, and further
investigation disclosed that the fire alarm box
had been plugged by filing an empty cartridge
on the pivot on which the key turned, thus rem
dering the box useless, which points almost
conclusively that the work was the set of an in
cendiary, but which is being investigated. Mrs.
Wood cannot believe that it is any one con-
nected with her household.
