BROOKLYN'S HANDICAP.
POINTS ON TIE FIRST GREAT RAGE
OF TIE SEASON.

There il Reason to Believe That TIE
Crest Tenny is Out Ct tiff that's
So, Tea Tray Should Win, But Bur
lipgton, Banquet and Prince Roy al
are Not to Be Overlooked.
NEW YORK. May 9.-Although the vol
ume of betting about the Brooklyn handi-
cap this winter has been less than perhaps
ever before, now that the great event is
approaching, interest in it is growing uni
versal, not alone among horsemen, but
among the hundred Of thousands TO whom
racing is pastime and the highest form of
sport.
The Brooklyn handicap practically opens
the so-called legitimate racing season In tn
state of New York. In it are engaged the
cream of the horses in training both in the
east anu in the west, and. as the guaranteed
value OF the stake is 10000, it Is certainly
worth trainers while to send his horse to
the post fit 10 run for q mans life. Though
not quite so old an event as the suburban,
1t Is gradually beginning to outrenk it in
Importance, and, now that its money value
Is higher, VIC should sec a superb contest.
Thus far the races have been sensational
The first Brooklyn handicap was run in
1881, when Dry Monopole beat Hidalgo and
Blue Bird in most desperate finish break
ing the record for a mile aud "a quarter.
Heads separated the three at the finish. The
following year that great race horse. The
Bard, won rather handily. But in 1889
Exile won rather Unexpectedly 81 far as the
general public was concerned, but his own
people landed @ pot of money.
The race last year result d in a tremendous
surprise. Castaway III, 20 to / shot, led
all the way ana literally rOmped in winner
by eight lengths. His owner, Mr.. j. Camp
bell, and his party are said to have landed
over $40, 600 in bets on the race.
This year the Brooklyn closed with sixty
six nominations, and of this number the
following are likely to start:

ton under the circumstances was inn
whole matter is that certain of our con-
temporaries, notably the Post of San
Francisco, say that Colonel Forsythe has
been naturalized, and that settles the
whole matter. This impoverished con-
ception of the duty of citizenship and the
elevated motive which inspired natural
ization is about as un-American as Colo
mel Forsythe's hasty naturalization.
In the meantime, what is the matter
with J. DeBarth Shorb that he could not
be appointed and confirmed to the chief
taincy of the Horticultural Department?
He is anative American. During the war
he sympathized with the South and was a
political prisoner in Fort Lafayette. This
is thoroughbred Southern record. In
the last Presidential campaign Mr.. Shorb
supported Benjamin Harrison for Presi-
dent, the Republican nominee. He is a
protectionist of the old school, and the
issues growing out of the slavery ques-
ton having died, he returned to his old
Wing affiliations and became protection
Republican. This is thoroughbred stall
wart Northern record. But, aside from
his political record, Mr.. Shorb is horti-
culturist of the broadest experience,
man of magnificent attainment and high
administrative ability, gentleman in
every instinct and attribute of his nature,
citizen Of the purest life, and the kind of
man whom men of upright character
delight to honor. There is no exaCgera-
The statement is amply justified by his
conduct during long and honorable
career as a citizen of America and the
State Of California. We therefore ask
again, Why is it that Shorb cannot be APP
pointed? The answer is not far to seek.
Mr.. Shorb is an American gentleman
who attends to his own business. He is
not ward politician. He has not claimed
or demanded anything for any service he
may have rendered parties. He is not
piece on the chess-board Of politics to be
moved by the place-hunters and for
these reasons he is liable to be over
looked, or, if presented, to be repudiated.
We reserve for an early future the task
of disclosing to the people of California
the whole story Of the contest for the
headship of Department "B." In the
meantime we think the people of Cali
fornia should petition Director General
Davis and the double-barreled confirma-
tory power to appoint a citizen of Cali
fornia whom California itself desires and
one who viii be credit to the State

ENDOWMENT OF THE STANFORD
FREE KINDERGARTEN.

Some years ago number of people of
large means founded free kindergarten
schools in the city of San Francisco.
Mrs. Leland Stanford was, we believe,
the first among these, and from time to
time as she noted the growing usefulness
and wise benelicence of these institu-
tions, she added to their number. She
has now become so well convinced of the
inestimabIe good of the kindergarten sys-
tenn, that she has determined 10 place the
schools she has founded beyond the risks
Of fugitive support on her part. She has
therefore set aside 500, 1000, the issues of
which trust viii be applied in perpetuity
by its custOdians to the maintenance of
five free kindergarten schools in San
Francisco.
This insures them; gives them the
character of permanency and removes
them utterly from any liability of failure
of support. These schools by location
and character address themselves to the
conditions of people who most need them,
and they therefore serve an especially use
full purpose in the educational system of
the metropolis.
This endowment by Mrs. Stanford re-
fleets not only the HberaIity of wisely
administered wealth, but the broadest
human sympathy; it is a helping of
others to help themselves in the truest
and fullest sense, because it begins at the
very root of character building, and its
energy is directed towards the growing of
good men and women, the shaping of
human growth into useful lives. The
possession of great wealth becomes often
siye only when its use is narrow, selfish
and illiberal. 1t is lofty beneficence
when its use is directed toward the bet
terment of the race, the helping of those
willing to aid themselves, the conserva-
ton of educational and industrial activity
and discriminating disbursement in
charity.
Mrs. Stanford's conception of the wise
use of large means is clearly exemplified
not only by the specific endowment re-
ferred to in the outset, but in many other
generous, unselish and large disburse-
ments and investment of her means
among the people of California.
