Two Days Racing.

An effort is being made to have a
couple of days racing here some time
soon, and just after the close of the
Fair at Nayasota has been suggested
as themost auspicious time, inasmuch
as there are a number of fine horses
to be there that could easily be iu-
duced to come to Brennan. Some
of them will go to New Orleans in a
few days after the Fair and it
would doubtless just suit them to
stop over in Brennan a few days on
their way. Foster, Turner and
Miller will all have horses there and
with sufficient purse, which will no
doubt be raised by the sporting
fraternity of Brennan, they will all
send racers here. Brennan has a
good track and good accommoda-
tons for the horses and there is no
reason why there should not be some
good racing here this fall. The
matter is in the hands of men who
will endeavor to get up the purses
and ascertain if the owners of fine
horses at the Navasota Fair will not
come over. Further particulars dates.
etc., will be published as soon as the
arrangement take definite shape.

taking with him their two children,
Emma, aged 7, and Mamie, aged 5 years.
When Mrs. Coates was granted divorce
it was stipulated that the father should
have the children with him at certain
intervals. The doctor came to st. Louis
from Montgomery, Missouri, shortly be-
fore Christmas, and sent for his two
children. This morning the mother re-
ceived a letter from Coates, stating
that he and the children were
hundreds of miles away, and that
she would not see them again
for four and one.half years. Mrs. Coates
is prostrated with grief. DR.. Coates shot
and killed DR.. Keith on Thirteenth and
Pine streets years ago. he claimed that
the shooting was provoked by Keith's at
tention to his wife. Keith was man
nearly seventy years of age, and Coates
assertions were not credited by the
friends and acquaintances of the old
Doctor, and Coates was put to Jail on the
charge of murder in the first degree.
When the trial came up the defense was
insanity. The plea was sustained by the
jury, and Coates was acquitted, but
sent to an insane asylum. After remain
ing in the asylum three months he was
set free on the grounds that he was
thoroughly restored.
