rRorrING RECORD BROKEN.

Sunal is queen Of The turf. She
lowered the record of the worlds
trotting time by going nile in
2 0Sl on the Stockton track on the
10th of October. Maud ): can with
draw from the turf and spend the re-
naming days Of her life in the blue
grass fields of Kentucky. Her glory
has faded and the five-year-old mare
Sunol, daughter of Elecuoneer, has
trotted herself into worldwide fame.
Charles Marvin, her proud trainer
and driver, does not think she has
done her best yet and will speed her
again in the near future. Senator
Stanford formerly owned Sunol, but
sold her to Mr.. Robert Bonner of
New York. 1t was a proud moment
for him when he heard of her feat.
Californians are enthusiastic over
this bit of horse-hesh now almost
worth her weight in gold. Lovers
of the turf wear Sunol hats and take
nothing but Sunol drinks.
ST. PETERSBURG ITEMS.
1t looks like grim mockery to the
masses TO have the revelry of fete
going on when famine and actual
starvation of the people are staring
them in the face. The celebration
of the forty-fourth anniversary of
the battle of Navarino took place at
st. Petersburg on the goth of Octo-
ber, and it was made special cele-
bration because of the launching Of
three new Russian iron-clads, one of
them, the Navarino, being battle
ship of immense size and power.
The launching took place in the
presence of all foreign naval attaches
and crowds of people.
In view of possible complications
with China in regard to the Pamlr
and other territory, the Governor of
the Trans Balkal has ordered the re-
moval Of all Jews residing within
100 kilometers of the frontier, to
prevent the Jews acting as spies for
China.
A special from st. Petersburg,
Oct. %, says that serious nLdi-Jewish
riots are reported at Acht. Inigof, in
which thirty Jews were killed and
five hundred suffered in person and
personal property.
Russia seems to be the center for
complication of troubles. To add
TO the unpleasant state of affairs hel
troops are being withdrawn from
Bessaraba on account of the wretch
ed accommodation there and al
epidemic of typhus.
1t is estimated by the Russian
| Government that 1873, 900, 900 roubles
will be required to meet the necessi.
ties existing in various parts of the
Russian Empire. The Gar has giver
5000, 900 roubles from his owl
private purse to the famine fund ant
has issued an appeal to the menber'
of the nobility and the landed gentry
to form another fund for the relief 0.
the famishing people.
Anti-Jewish riots have occurred a.
Ternigoff. Troops had to interfere
to protect the Jews from the vlolenc'
of their prosecutors, whose hatreC
was animated by the belief tina
they had caused the scarcity of grair

by the Oregon State Board of Com
merce to raise money for the Orego
