WONDERFUL RECORD BREAKING

From American Horse Breeder
Wednesday, the 2lst inst, was the
greatest day for record breaking among
trotters and PAGERS that ever dawned
Trainer Marvin of Smuggler (2:l5t no.
torlety started the wonderful two-year-
old colt Arion, by Electioneer; dam by
Nutwood, 2:lSa, against his own unap-
proachable record of 2l53, made ii short
time since. The colt trotted the mile
without skip, finishing strong in 2:l4d.
The quarters were 344, 321, 3i4, 334. Ar
Jon to-day is the eighth wonder of the
world, and Charley Marvin, who develop
ed and drove him to such remarkable
victory, is the ninth.
The yearling filly Bell Bird, which
made a record of 2:27l not long ago,
was also sent for lower mark. The eff
fort was grand success. This baby
trotter went the first quarter in 374 sec
onds, the second in 364, the third in 81.
and the fourth in 35i, making the mile in
2:26i, without skip or waver, lowering
her record ID seconds. The most re-
markable part of the performance was
that she trotted the last quarter in 354
seconds, 2 ~ gait
The stallion Palo Alto also contributed
to the honors of the famous Palo Alto
breeding establishment by reducing his
record from 2;l2i to 2:ll4, making the
quarters in 334, 324, 334, %. No two
men interested in trotting stock ever had
greater cause for rejoicing than Senator
Stanford, proprietor of the Palo Alto es-
Enlistment, and trainer Charles Marvin,
to whose industry, skill and Judgment
the wonderful trotters of Palo Alto are
largely indebted for the marvellous sue
cess which they haye attained. These
records were made Oh the new kite-shap-
ed track at Stockton, Cal.

ing on the Pacific coast, the PAGER Di-

EAGLE BIRD. 2:2,I

Was the first two-year-old to trot in
:30t, which mark he reduced to 2:2l4 !;
The next season he cut the latter to III
as four-year-old, and trotted second to
Jerome Turner, when the latter trotted
in 2:l5i, in time fast enough to give
them the fastest four-year-old stallion
record. He is making great sire, and
his stud fee has been doubled for the
coming season, with the esteem with
which his colts are held Exchange.

AN INCREASE FOR APRIL OVER LAST YEAR
SUNDAY. Man 24-p. nl

Sunday, May Gap. m.
The Government report of foreign commerce
g. Anvil shows an increase in the exports of
,,.rchandise Of S7.4Os,234 compared with the
same month last year, but this was fully offset
bv an increase in the imports of S9,367,J4
Compared with April in the preceding year the
difference Is still larger While the imports of
.rsha ndise in the month exceeded the exports
nv slo.sSs,1 ,1s7, the heavy shipments of specie
made the net balance an excess of S4,s5S, ,s26.
For the ten months ended on April 80 the mer-
cbandise movement shows an excess of exports of
Y6p.uO.l9s, against $lo3 ,523,270 in the same
perod year ago. and with the specie movement
the net balance was an excess of exports OF
Seb.eia2 293, against 81 O,3s9,7S7. While the ex-
ports Of merchandise are therefore large in COM
parison with preceding years, the excessive i'm
ports partly explain the heavy shipments OF gold.
Predictions Of an outflow of $40 1000, 900 made
two months ago were based entirely on the usual
spring trade demands. The following tables com
pare the values Of the imports and exports in
the month Of April and in the ten months of the

Holy Coat of Treves.

On the 10th day of August the Cathedral of Trcyes, a town of per, haps B ,000 population in Renish
 Prussia, famous for its Roman an tiquites and remains, will be thrown open to pilgrims, who are expected from all parts of the world, there to do homage to the holy coat" sup posed to have been worn by Jesus Christ, and said to have been pres ented to chapter of the cathedral by St. Helena, the mother of the Emper- or Constantine. It is described as q tunic, about five feet long, cut mar row at the shoulders and gradually widening toward the knees. It is woven out of one piece without any seam whatever. The material is said to have been linen, but it's great age prevents any exact confirmation. It is enclosed in an outer casing of purple and gold cloth, supposed to have been added some time in the
 seventh century in order to preserve the relic.- Memphis Commercial

Of what use is the tie that binds we'd ded hearts together if, like flament of floss, it parts when the strain is brought to bear upon it?

The Capitol Dome, Washington.

The Capitol Dome at Washington is the only considerable dome of iron in the world. It Is vast hollow sphere weighing S,000,O0o pounds. How much is that! More than 4,0OO tons, or almost the weight of 10000 full-grown persons, or about equal to 1000 ladened coal cars of four tons each, which, if strung out one behind the other, would occupy a mile and half of track, On the very top of the dome the allegorical figure America weighing l3, ,9S5 pounds, lifts it's proud head high in air. The pressure of this dome and figure upon the piers and pillars is l4,4U pounds to the square foot. It would, however, require pressure of 1jj ,28G pounds to the square foot to crush the supports of the dome, The cost of this immense dome was little short of Sl, ,0O0, ,00O

The "Blackbird Days"

January 90, 3l, and February 1, are famous in the neighborhood of Brescia, Constantinople, Florence, Italy, and along the Danube and the Reine, as the "Blackbird Days" A curious medieval legend says that originally all species of the grackels (blackbirds) were of a creamy white color, that it became black because during one year in the Middle Age. the three days above mentioned were so cold that all birds in Central and Southern Europe took refuge ill the chimneys. At BrescIa, Mir. Swain son says the three days are celc- brated with feast called II giorni della mcrla,' meaning the feast of the transformation of the bird.

 her young husband to earn the mon ey ingle-handed to make a home worth pof her acceptance.

Back to your ship, you cowardly one. 1.-the boat goes down, go down with it, but do not count yourself worthy of any fair weather you did not help to gain!
