Blaine's Name Applauded in Church,

Blaine's Name Applauded in Church..
From the Cincinnati Enquirer.
There was a rather strange scene at the Ninth
Street Baptist Church yesterday morning. The
Rev. J. ID. Fulton, Baptist minister from
Quebec, filed the pulpit usually occupied by
the Rev. Johnston Myers.
The reverend gentleman is a delegate to the
annual convention of the American Baptisf
Home Missionary Society, which has been i'm
session during the past week at Pixies Opera
House, and conducted the services Yesterday
morning at the request of the pastor.
After pronouncing his text the minister pro-
ceeded to draw picture of the wonderful hold
Catholicism had in his native city, Quebec and
also had occasion to refer to Rome and the
Italian government. In speaking of italy he
mentioned the present diffculty existing be-
tween that country and the United States' and
eulogized Secretary Blaine for the course he
had pursued in dealing with the matter.
Mr.. Blaine" he said, sis the schoolmaster
Of the world.''
At the mention of the Secretary's name en-.
thusiastic applause broke forth from a large
part OF the congregation, the hand ciappino
lasting several seconds.
Inc interruption was totally unexpected and
evldentiy spontaneous. The time and place,
however, made the outburst rather startling
some OF the old, staid members looked at each
other In utter establishment. The visiting
preacher himself seemed nonplussed for the
moment. During the remainder of the sermon
he carefully avoided any reference to the
magnetic man from Maine"

COLUMBUS, ONO June 1.-The third party
advocates declare that the action of Wednes-
days farmers convention by no means kills
their project in Ohio. They say that the con-

The principal point of difference between the
convention which they wished the recent

mer would have been fathered by "a regularly
organized body Of men, Consequently, the
ticket nominated at q convention called by the

There are two other judgeships to be filed in
Maryland at the next election-one in the
fourth and one in the fifth judicial circuit. In
the fourth, composed of Allegheny, Washing
ton and Garrett counties Governor jackson
has appointed Col. Henry Kyd Douglas of
Hagerstown for the unexpired term of the late
Judge Andrew l. Syester and in the fifth, COM
posed OF Carroll, Howard and Anne Arundel
counties, he has appointed JamesA. C. Bond of
Westminster for the unexpired term of the
late Judge John Smith. There is some doubt
whether Judge Douglas wants the nomination
for the full term and there is an impression
with great many people that he does not.
The circuit is more surely republican than the
seventh, and with the experience Of his con-
gressional canvass against McComas, two years
ago, in the sixth district, which is composed
in part of these three counties, the prospect
10 probably not a very rosy one to
by the fact that the district has since
elected a democratic Congressman and
Cumberland has followed that up by again
electing q democratic mayor to succeed Con-
gresham Mckaig, who resigned the former
Office after his election to the latter. A great
many democrats believe that the republican
majority in that district has been pernA nently
reversed and Judge Douglas, if he aspires to
further judicial distinction, may be one of
them. Ex-State Senator Edward Stake of
Hagerstown will probably be the republican
In the fifth circuit Judge Bond is making q
big fight for the nomination, but is being OPP
posed by the same tactics which Magruder is
bringing to bear against Judge BriscOe. His
opponent is ex-Attorney General Charles b.
Roberts, who was first offered the appointment
by Gov. Jackson, but declined. Judge Bond
and his friends then supposed it would be plain
sailing for him after receiving the appoint
ment, but recently Roberts has actively taken
the field - o candidate. The rivalry between
them has lately become intensified, it Is said, by
reason Of certain decisions Of Judge Bond in
cases where Roberts was interested and the
fight il now bitter one. Roberts is one of the
leading men Of the state. He has frequently
been spoken Of for governor and was Q candi-
date in the convention which nominated Gov.
jackson four years ago.

Many Residences Visited NfghtIy-The
Situation is Serious.
AS RECORD UNION reporter was on
his way home at 1:30 o'clock yesterday
morning he heard the report of a pistol
or gunshot. 1t seemed to come from the
vicinity of the Plaza at Tenth and J
streets, but by the time the reporter
reached there all was quiet. It was SUBJ
sequently reported that someone had
shot at some cats. 1t is quite as likely
that somebody shot at the festive burglar
who is making himself so numerous
these nights.
AT an early hour yesterday morning
the residence of A. Menke, 1909 I street.
was entered by burglar, who ransacked
nothing except some canned fruit from
the cellar.
On Thursday night a burglar entered
the residence of ex-Justice G. n. Post
while the family were all absent. but a
neighbor gave the alarm and the thief got
away.
About o'clock yesterday morning
Mrs. NanDemark, who resides at 1927 J
street, was awakened by a man working
at the lock of the front door. She called
to others in the house and the burglar
fed.
On Thursday morning, before daylight
burglars made an attempt to rob Fred
Kolliker's drugstore, at Sixth and J
streets. The doors were pried open with

"BIG-FOOT" STORMAN.
The Supposed Burglar and His Pal
Now in Jail.
Chief Drew and officer Simmons Think
They Have Caught the
Right Men.

1t looks very much as if Chief of Police
Drew has at last within his clutches the
men-or two of them, at least-who have
been committing the frequent burglaries
in this city the last few weeks.
For several days past he has had officer
Simmons shadOwing a fellow whom he
| suspected of being one of the robbers, and
last night the Chief and that officer caught
their man in low dance-house. But
they were also after another, and he was
found shortly atterward on X street and
arrested. Both are 'dope'' fiends.
One OF the men gave the name Of James
Donovan, and the other that of Joseph
Sherman. They have been in the city
about three weeks, but have made fre-
quent visits to other places. Indeed,
Sherman is known to have left here on
Thursday and returned the same night.
The latter is undoubtedly the ''tall
man" of whom several persons have had
glImpses while he was at his work. He
has a foot on him like that of an oId-time
South Carolina darkey, and wears about
a number II shoe.
1t was his foot that finally landed him
in the City Prison. Chief Drew visited
one of the residences that had recently
been burglarized and found the imprint
OF the fellows shoe in the soft ground at
the bottom Of rear stairway. He took a
| cast 1T, and has ever since been looking
for foot that would fit it.
Storman'S hoof fills the bill (or rather
the cast exactly. There is a crack in the
sole Of one of his shoes, and the mud-cast
has one to match it,
Officer Simmons has learned that these
men had been in the habit of chanpinp
their room almost nightly On,
day night last they stopped at the City
Hotel, and on Thursday night at the EN-
plre House on X street, between Front
and Second streets. Last night they slept
in jail.
When Sherman was arrested he stated
where he had slept on the preceding
night, but declared he had no partner -
When Donovan was taken in he gave the
same room as his latest place of residence,
and he, too, denied that anyone had
shared it with him.
Nothing was found in the rooms occu-
pied by the men except large number of
Keystone safe-key, about half dozen
flat latch-keys, and three common door
keys.
Officer Simmons late last night found
where Donovan and Sherman had sold
several pairs of new shoes for dollar a
pair and recovered some of the foot-gear.
The parties who purchased them identi-
fed the men as the ones who sold the
shoes.
Whether these shoes were stolen in
this city, or brought here from some
other place to be disposed of, is not
yet known.
Chief Drew says there can be no doubt
whatever that he has the festive burglars
who have been operating here. There
may be more of the gang, but he thinks
not. What they have done with their
plunder is yet to be ascertained
1t has been learned that these men were
recently hangers-on about Pete Dorsey's
notorious resort in San Francisco.

A SOCIETY RACKET.
Mr.. Brown and Mrs. Keller Do Their
Laundrying in Court.
Neither Has Much Respect for the
Others Pedigree-Necessity for
Division Fence.

Mrs. a. Keller and +. B. Brown are
neighbors, but unfortunately there is no
dividing fence between their yards. A
walk serves this purpose, but walks are
easier to cross than picket fences. and this
is just the reason why the whole neighbor-
hood near Sixth and G streets was sum-
moned to the Police Court yesterday.
The two aforementioned parties had
engaged in quarrel, arrests followed,
and their differences had to be explained
in court.
The occurrence which led to the rum
pus was the running away from home of
Mr.. Browns two stepsons. He gives
them a severe trouncing occasionally,
and Mrs. Keller thinks the boys are not
treated right. Although she denies the
accusation, the claim is made by Brown
that Mrs. Keller advised the boys to run
away to avoid being punished.
When he heard this story on Tuesday
last Brown was mad. He went out into
the yard, and finding a book, which did
not belong TO him. lying on the ground,
he picked it up and threw it into Mrs
keller's yard.
Mrs. Keller came out and hurled it back
at him.
brown UnreW IL across again, and this
kind of long-range hostility was kept
up for five or ten minutes. They kept
getting closer and closer to each other,
and angrier and fiercer as the distance
shortened.
Brown called Mrs. Keller a hoodlum,
and she branded him as a close relative to
a dog.
He then insinuated that if he was a dog
she was of the same species, but of differ
ent sex.
Finally Mrs. Keller dared him to strike
her. Brown gave her a shove, claiming
that she was on his property. and she
avowed she would have him arrested.
She made good her promise, and had all
of her witnesses in the Police Court yes
terday.
Brown had his, also, and the presence
of both factions must have rendered some
of the departments in the canneries short
of hands.
City Attorney Hart conducted the
prosecution, and Brown defended his
case with the result that the court con-
yicted him of battery, and ordered him to
appear to-day for Judgment.

Governor Markham Called Upon by q
Committee Last Evening.
The Federated Trades Committee ap-
pointed to wait on Governor Markham
and request him to declare Labor Day a
legal holiday, performed its mission last
evening. The committee was composed
of John D. Jost (Chairman) and T. J.
Garrison of the Carpenters Union, VIM.
Tibbits and John Hantzman Of the Mold
ers' Union, Richard Cavalry of the
Boilermakers' Union, and w. r. Selkir6
Of the Typographical Union.
The Governor listened to the request of
the committee, and then said he would
like to be able to grant it, but could not
just then see his way clear to do so. Special
elections had been called in Woodland
and one or two other places for Septem-
Der 7th, and he was afraid that if he were
to declare that day a legal holiday it
would vitiate these elections.
Superior Judge Van Fleet, who was
present, concurred with the Governor in
this belief. The latter said, however.
that he would confer with the Attorney
General on the subject, and if he found

Some Race Horse Owners Who Have
Been Debarred.

The National Association rules are be-
ing strictly observed on the circuit, and
several owners have been ruled off the
track and their horses suspended. The
Marysville 4ppeGL calls attention to the
fact that the following horses and owners
were suspended at the fair held in Marys-
vile last year, and the penalties must be
paid before they are again allowed to par
tlciDate in any races run under the Ma
tional Trotting Association rules:
j. E. King, Woodland, for horses
Junita and Lookout; John c. Sohm, San
Leandro, horse Wild Robin; w. f. Gates,
mare Minnie Dryden; John C. Moore,
Moore's Station, horse Gold Dust; G.. II.
Simpson, MOore's Station, horse
Barham; Al Hitler, Sacramento,

were also suspended at Red Bluff last
week: III. X. Long and mare Queen
Elizabeth, J. Girard and bay gelding
Sammy, j. II. Muse and bay mare Kite
sha, Owen Brothers and bay gelding
Babe.
This is the only protection left to socie-
ties to guard against men entering horses
who afterward refuse to pay entrance
fees unless they win some races. The
stricter the rules are adhered to the
greater will be the safeguard for the gen
eral public

A CASE OF NO CONTEST
Why 1t Was There Was No Race at the
Park Last Evening.

why lC was Ihere was No Race at the
Park Last Evening.
There was large attendance of ladies
and gentlemen at Agricultural Park last
evening, having been attracted thither by
the published announcement last We'd
nesday that there would be race be-
tween Miss Nellie Ryan's bay mare
Killarney Maid, G. II. Gilman's black
PAGER Solitaire and sorrel stallion owned
by DR.. Fay.
The crowd waited impatiently until
o'clock for DR.. Fay to arrive, but he did
not put in an appearance, and it was sup
posed that Solitaire and Killarney Maid
would start.
Mr.. Gilman drove on the track, accom-
panied by his wife, in a light buggy
drawn by his black PAGER, but when the
subject OF a race was broached to him he
said il was not his intention to start. He
declared he had not authorized the state
ments published concerning a race be-
tween his horse and the others mentioned,
and he proposed to pay no attention to
the demands of the crowd.
Dr. McCOllum was ont in q light cart
behind the Maid and consented to
speed her for a mile. She has a steady
and graceful movement, and travelled
splendidly until she reached the center of

feet, losing several seconds. She settled
down again and came under the wire in
Z:32. The quarter was reached in 81 sec
ondS and the half in I:16.
1t seems that there was widespread dis
appointment among the hundreds who
had assembled to witness the race, and
Mr.. Gilman was considerably annoyed
over the matter. In company with DR..
Fay he called at this office last evening
and reasserted that he had not been asked
to enter a race for last evening, and that
he was in no way responsible for the dis
appointment.
DIR. Fay also said he had not been asked
and had made no arrangements to race
He was in the country on a professional
visit at the hour the race was announced
to take place. Both gentlemen felt that
they had been placed in q false position.
The statement that sucha race had been
arranged was brought to the RECORD
UNION office by a gentleman who was
presumed to know the facts, and there
being no published contradiction thereof
by the parties concerned, the public
naturally assumed that it was correct.

he could not declare the 9TH of September
a legal holiday he would do the next best
thing in that direction-publicly recon-
mend general cessation of business on
that day.
The Governor further said that the fact
of September 9th being legal holiday
would not have deferred him from grant
ing the committees request.
After pleasant social chat with the
members of the committee the Governor
said he would give them an early answer
probably to-day.
The committee were greatly pleased
with their reception.
Yesterday the committee appointed to
call upon business men and solicit them
to close their places of business on the
afternoon of that day, received many
promises to do so. The prospect is that
the day will be generally observed as q
