important. The chief declines have
been per cent in Argentlnes and
Guatemala bonds and ~ per cent in

AMONG The HORSES.
The Twin City Jockey Club
Meeting and It's Phenom-
email Success.
Next Years Meeting to Be Of
Not Less Than Sixteen
Days Duration.
Seven Races Each With Large
Fields Scheduled for Sar-
atoga To-Day.
The Coming Queen Of the
The Coming Queen Of the
Trotting Turf--Whips and
Tips.

The second annual meeting of the
Twin City Jockey club has gone into
history, and it is safe to assert that
there is no brighter page III the annals
of racing in the West. The phenomenal
success of the efforts of few liberal
men to populariZe the sport in state
supposed to be welded to the trottlng
turf offers sufficient inducement to
them to continue what will in the end
prove to be winning game. The only
feature of the meeting to be deplored
was the lamentably sparse attendance.
Everything else was away above the
mark. The Twin City Jockey club
went to an expense approximating
1000 before a single ticket for the
meeting was sold. The aggregate re-
CENTS will fall short of the actual out
Law from $4,000 to $4,000. But the
meeting was a success notwithstanding.
Such starts and finishes as were wit
messed in the fifty-two races run are
alone sufficient TO convince the most
skeptical that the horses were In TO win,
and honest sport cannot fail to attract
at some stage of the game remuneratlve
patronage. Such is the firm belief OF
the Jockey club management, whose
broad-guage policy is certain to be re-
warded There will be meeting next
year, and it will be of not less than six
teen days duration. Hereafter there
will be no need of drumming among
horsemen They will come Of their own
voltion, and gladly, too. The purses
offered by the Twin City Jockey club
are larger than any others hung up in
the West. The speculative tendency of
the Northwestern public Is sufficient to
attract the bt okmakers, and this, com
bined with the increased interest which
the public will take in running races,
insures the success of all future meet
ings. Most of the horses which ran at
HamlIne during the meeting were
shipped East by special train yesterday
afternoon. Their owners followed last
night, and it will be twelve months
hence before the starters drum is
tapped again at Hamline TO send off the
field in the Twin City Derby race.

THE MATTER OF A MINUTE.
Who Died First in the Flood at
JOhnstOwn?

Baltimore American.
Judge Dennis yesterday delivered an
interesting opinion in the case of Bertha
ii. Cowman VS.. Bertha II. Cowman, as
administrative of Walter E. Hopes and
q. Lloyd Rogers, administrator of En-
nest b. Hopes and Allen G. Hopes,
infants. in which the supreme lodge,
Order of the Golden Chain, filed bill
of interpleader. The case arose out of
the Johnstown disaster, to determine
who was entitled to the $4,000 to be
paid on the death of Walter E. Hopes.
secretary of the Johnstown Steel COM
pany. a member of the order, and who,
with his wife and TWO children,
was drowned in the flood. Mrs.
Cowman is sister of Mr.. Hopes, and
claimed the fund, while Mr.. Rogers, as
administrator of the two children of Mr..
Hoopes,> contended they survived both
their estate. There was only one sur
vivor of the flood who knew anything
of the manner in which the Hopes
family persisted. He testified that he
was In the dwelling of Mr.. Hopes, in
the parlor with Mr.. and Mrs. Hopes,
when he saw dark body covering the
windows. He rushed out and up
stairs, and never saw MI. and Mrs.
Hopes after that. Up stairs were his
own wife and child, and the two chill
dren of Mr.. Hopes. He got them all to
gether and drove them before him up to
the top of the attic steps. Then the house
was swept away, and all were drowned
except himself. Under the old Roman
law, Judge Dennis remarked, all sorts
of prescriptions as to survivorShlp were
taken into consideration, as to sex and
strength, being an expert swimmer, etc.,
but the English law swept all this away,
and the courts now do not consider pre-
sumption in such cases. The leading
case in this country. cited 10y Judge
Dennis, is that of Ball, in Cheeve's
South Carolina Reports, arising out of
plying between Savannah and Charles
ton. In this case Mrs. Ball was heard,
some ten minutes after the explosion, to
call loudly for her husband. and she re-
ceived no response, and as he was known
as brave man and devoted huS
band, the court decided that the evil
dence was sufficient to establish that
she survived. throwing out as not so
conclusive the fact that some minutes
after the explosion a man rushed to the
side and threw a coat into small
boat and then disappeared and was
never seen afterwards, and that the
coat would fit Ball. large man, and
that it bore his initials. The court held
that the man might be other than Ball
himself. Judge Dennis, acting on the
only tangible evidence, decided that the
children of Hopes survived their par
ents, and awarded the fund to their es
tate 1t was a very interesting case.

Moving Time.

Birds have their regular NOV ng time
as uniform as many other householders,
but they have the advantage of being
their own furniture vans, and not hav-
ing anything to move but themselves.
Blessed birds Who would not be a
bird when they have to change and
make new home? and yet it is some
trouble to them.
Nearly all the birds are migratory,
but some, as the sparrow and robin,
remain with US during the winter, but
even they, with rare exceptions, love to
change their nest, and either make new
ones out and out, or tear their old ones
to pieces and freshen them up.
Their instinct tells them when to get
ready to leave the warm climate where
they have been spending the winter,
and by some understanding they all
start together on their journey, some
times hundreds of miles, over land and
over seas, for their summer home.
April is the time when most birds pre-
pare to move. Their preparation con-
sisis mainly of talking it over and de-
Gliding when it shall be done. Having
cleaned their wings, quill by quill, and
oiled their bodies from little sack
which birds always carry on their backs
their preparations are made.
Some birds, like the members of the
summer yellow bird family, stop half
way on their journey from the south to
the far north, and build nests, but these
pay US very short visits, only long
enough to rear one brood of young
until they can fly away with them.
Wild fowl, like the wild goose, some
times travel 400 miles in a day, and
when tired will rest on the masts and
spars of vessels, and often help each
other. If the young or any tender one
lags behind, stronger bird flies under
it and carries it for while on its back.
The little birds, too, often alight on the
back of the larger species they may
meet on their journey, and thus get a
free ride and a rest. Sailors often find
little qulvering used.up birds on the
deck of their vessels, who are too tired
to move, but their bright watch every
thing, and they are sure to be petted
back to strength again, for sailors ore
always kind.
Their bones are all hollow, and so
are the quills of their wings and feath-
ers. The more soft down birds have,
