THE HORSE BREEDERS MEETING

The Argus makes this comprehensive
summary of the main events of last weeks
horse breeders meeting: Although rain in
terfered somewhat with the published pro-
gram, the attendance was good, and the re-
ceipts were sufficient to cover all expenses,
premiums and purses. The crowd was not
large the first day, but last Wednesday, the
second day, there were fully 5000 people
on the grounds, and much enthusiasm was
manifested over the events of the day. In
the morning the different classes were eX-
amined for premiums, the judges being {.
A. Chapman of Ferrisburg, and w. c.
Clark, of the Mirror and Farmer, Man
chester, n. II. At noon the racing was
resumed, the first event being the three
minute class, six heats of which had been
trotted the day previous. The purse was
for 800. John Mitchell, owned by Charles
Hammell, Larrabee's Point, took two heats,
and won the race, the time being 2:32,
2:32 1-2. Dennis H., owned by II. r. Cults,
Orwell, second, Bessie c., owned by r. +.
Weller, Burlington third, b. and r., own
ed by NJ. S. COburn, Manchester Center,
fourth, and Sheldrake, the property of c.
w. Reagan, st. Adams, fifth. The two
year-old race, for the Pine Hill Stock Farm
stakes of S2S5 for foals of 1889, was won
very easily by Rupert Gillig, owned by e..
F. Moore, of Shoreham, time, 2:54, 2:49,
and 2:4S. The three-ye ar-old race for the
Kent stakes, S349, fOals of 1888, was walk
over for Annacander, owned by Z. F..
Brownel, of Burlington, time 2:44 and
2:35. The four-year-old race for the George
W. Hooker stakes, S405, brought out as
fine lot of four-year-olds as were ever seen
on race track in Vermont. Helen NJ,
owned by w. S. Bailey, East Hardwick,
driven by John Moulton, won in two
straight heats, time 2:43, 2:30. The pres
ence of President Harrison on Thursday
attracted large attendance, but because OF
the rain the races scheduled were post
poned till Friday. Another heavy down
pour of rain Friday prevented any trials of
speed, and by mutual consent the races in
the 2:45, 2;35, and 2:27 classes were de-
clared off. The long list of premiums was
awarded and the meeting closed.

year, the brutal clubbing of a negro. corner Of

The man arrested had started to run. though
making no resistance, and was cruelty dubbed
over the bead and kicked. while the blood
streamed from his head. Tho blows could be
heard two squares and the policeman who de-
hvered them continued to kick the man and
punch him with his club even when putting
the negro in the patrol wagon. 1t was better
that the negro should have gotten away than that
he should De the victim of a cold-blooded out
rage and that the sensibilities of every decent
person should be shocked. Is il not strange
that policemen are not instructed that they
can only use their clubs in self-defense when
they believe themselves in danger: that they must
call the whole police .orce to help, if necessary,

supposed to be run for the benefit of the pub

few who can live without such work, and to
strangers from abroad, who probably have only
time to "do" the museum as hurriedly as pos.
sible.

cred and referred TO the depository for supply

tor, for grant of Bibles received was read. Mr.
A. S. Caywood was elected director TO fill q

he knew there was no store in Georgetown
where Bibles were kept on sale and proposed to
furnish them himself, whereupon it was re-
solved that the depository be authorized to
place Bibles on sale with Mr.. Graham.
