DAYS Racing.

Time, 2:42I4.
In the second heat Templemore made the
best OF the send-off, but Shuller brought the
Senator up quickly and took the lead at the
turn. Down the back stretch it was team
race. with Credo bringing up the rear. break
ing every hundred yards and acting shame
fully The Senator was not headed, winning
by three lengths from Templemore Time,
2:4034.
From the start to the middle of the back
stretch it was again team race between the
Senator ana Templemore. Credo acted badly
and fell back. At the half Senator drew
away from his rival, and it was here that
Credo began pushing, closing the gap and
swinging out on Templemore's wheel. At
the head of the stretch the three were lap
ping, Senator l. having the coign of vantage
and Credo bringing up the rear Credo
trotted little the fastest and had some show
of taking the heat, but Templemore's driver
yelled like Sioux Indian and Credo broke.

close and accurate record of the cratic

by George Bather, was quite English in mat

mutton chops. His style when he eavorted
around in front of the grand stand was so
captivating that Alma became the favorite.
Lone Tree ana Indian pony, with its white

polka dots, was not thought well Of His

worn by the dandy cracks" But it was
this same despised piebald Indian pony that
was the first to take his hurdle. lie went at
1t kindly, and ran at fairly rapid pace, with
the handsome black thoroughbred. Coercion,
Bidgood's mount, has his running mate.
These two showed the way to the party with
spirit and dash that aroused the first tu

strange things had been happening in the

graceful air but Spread Eagle boiled He
would have nothing of it, and it required a
great deal of physical manifestations on
the part of jackson to force him over. All
the others jumped, but the field had become
spread out. Coercion ran on, and had the
Indian beaten but when the far back hurdle
was encountered he, too, had bolted and ran
around. Bidgood had all he could do to
force him back and take the leap; and
when this had finally been effected, Alma
and Lone Tree were far away. Alma had
passed the white and brown spangles before
the completion of the first circuit, and now
had things his own way. Lone Tree was
close behind, but he was too small to outrun
the big bay. The finish showed Alma Lone
Tree, Red Wing, Wild Rose, Coercion and
Spread Eagle. No time was taken.

minutes before noon yesterday and said he wanted

such size in the shop but he placed the counter
one of 32-calibre, and said it was the largest he
had The stranger examined the pistol and seemed
to be satisfied when Steets told the price
"Have you any cartridges to fit itP" he inquired.
Steets said "yes" and handed over some blank
cartridges which the stranger tossed back con-
temptuously, saying: what do you take me
forp / want cartridges with bullets in them,
Steets offered to load the weapon, but as he
placed a ball cartridge In it he noticed care
worn expression IN the strangers face, and he
inquired with a smile: What do you want 1t
loaded for? To kill yourself?"
"Oh, not 1 want it for my own protection"
The strangers emphatic declaration dispelled
misgiving in Steets's mind and the loaded pistol
was handed over the counter. Instantly the
stranger stepped back into the middle Of tho
shop, placed the muzze of the weapon in his
mouth and pulled the trigger. The stranger feA

AN IMPORTANT DECISION IN A SUIT AGAINST
sELIGMAN BROS. 4 co.
An important decision has been made by Judge Law
renee Of the Supreme Court, setting aside judgments
by confession. The firm Of Seligman Brothers Co.,
suit and cloak manufacturers failed in july 1885, by
making an assignment to S. NJ. Herman. Shortly be-
fore the assignment was made they confessed two
judgments, In favor OF Herts Brothers, for &C.,
$685. and In favor Of Moses II. Moses for S4,235
They also transferred $4,000 worth Of accounts to
Jonas sonnebom and likewise confessed judgment
for S4,033 to Louis E. Moss. The Central National
Bank, having a claim Of $4,000. and Victor d
Achens also creditoxs through Bumensticl q Hrsch,
brought action to set aside these judgments ana
transfer Of accounts and the general assignment on the
ground that they were all part OF general scheme 10

Of the assignment act restricting preferences to
third of actual assets and also because the transaction
was intended as alleged. to hinder delay and defraud
the creditors OF scigman Brothers Co. 1t appeared
on the trial that all the stock had been taken and sold
by the sheriff under the judgments above referred to,
so that there but small amount Of money which

sufficient to pay expenses. 1t was asserted by the
counsel for the defendants that although the judg-
ments and executions made upon the same day

ecutons levied after the recording OF the assign
ment, there distinction In the from prior
decisions The creditors on the other hand claINed
that all these acts part and parcel Of scheme
and constituted together general assignment, and 1t
of importance whether the assignment was filed
first or the judgments entered first and being portion
OF one and the same transaction, they were all void
