RUTLAND, Aug 81. There we're four start
ers in the o-year- old race which practical
opened the afternoon 'ssport. Adela drew
the pole with Nudge Wilkes second, Lizzie
|Phelps third and Prince Nero fourth. Tho
heat was won by Adella with Madge Wilkes
second, Lizzie Phelps third and Prince Nero
fourth, the finish being in the same
order as the start. In the second
heat Madge Wilkes won with Adela
close at her heels This heat was quite ex-
citing, as Madge Wiks was in the rear al
most to the third quarter, when by splen
did squirt she steadily pulled by both Lizzie
Phelps and Prince Nero, and won by a
length, Adella's bad break at the last quar-
ter being her Waterloo. The third heat was
won by Adella, but the judges set her back
and gave the heat to Madge Wilkes; Lizzie
Phelps was sent away in the lead and on
the first turn, and led for Il time. She
did not have the speed, however, and fell
back. The judges distanced her for fouling.

In the four year Old race there were six
starters Contestor Wilkes, who drew the
pole, went into the dir on the first turn and
lost his position, Fauchon would show lots
of speed but was unsteady and only finished
second. Franklin Belle came very fast but
would not stay to her clip. In the second
heat Fanchon went to the front and led to
the quarter pole when a break lost her the
heat and every horse in the race pass
ed her before she caught whom she
did SO she came very fast and
finished second again. In the third heat
Fanchon came to the wire on run three
times and the starter cautioned hun and
told him he should send them away the next
time they came down all right regardless
of him They came down in good shape
with the exception OF Fanchon and they
were away. The mare recovered and trotted
tho best heat of the race, driving Contea,or

stretch, ont under the whip, the driver
swinging it SO that it broke Fanchon, who
was given the heat and Contestor " likes
placed last. In the fourth and fifth heats
Fsnchon was not headed, Franklin Bel was

INC memphis COmmefClal mas us
covered d most damhable plot, Matched
by Albion W. TOurgee, George w.
Cable and other negrophilists, which
has for its plain and express object the
subjugation OF Southern whites to
negro supremacy. The plan was to or
ganize a secret society with 100000
negro members, to be known as the
National Citizens Rights association
When the million members had been
secured the society was to take charge
of the politics of the Southern states
and run things to suit TOurgee and the
sweet scented band Of assassins who
helped to contrive and manage the
matter. TUurgee, however, with all of
his boosted knowledge OF the negro, did
not understand the character with
whom he had to deal. He was willing
for the blacks, banded together, TO APP
ply the torch and dagger when the
time came, but he wanted them to wait
until all was ready. He failed to UNI
derstand that the brands he threw
among his dusky followers, in the way
OF printed matter, suggesting all sorts
OF crimes, would fire their ignorance to
action before all was in readiness. He
might as well have thrown lighted
torch into powder magazine and ex-
pected to keep down the explosion with
II bucket of water until such time us he
wanted destruction tn come as to
throw the hints of terrible wrongs
and just revenge among his igno-
rant followers and expect them to
wait for signal from him before be-
ginning their awful work. The result
of his teachings has been already writ
ten in blood for some OF tho many atro-
cious crimes recently conan tilted in the
states Of the Southeast are evidently
traceable TO his malignant influence.
But these preliminary outbreaks have
had the good effect OF di scoyering the
dangerous society to the officials, by
whom it will soon be broksan up, though
probably not before Member Of its
members have worn the caressing
hempen tie Had no outbreak occurred
until the society had reached its million
members, or even gonc into the hun
dred thousands, the result would have
been terrible to ACCOMPLISHMENTS
tions, with their accompanying scenes
OF rapine, slaughter and fearful revenge,
for whenevena general insurrectIon oc-
ours there win be sudden wiplne out
OF the weaker by the stronger racA as
will add horror to the worlds whole
history OF horrors. It has always been
considered oroditable 10 the peace low
ing character OF the Southern people
that Tourgee was permitted to dwell SO
long In their midst without reaching
his end and that Of rope at the same
time, but 1t now appears likely that the
day will come when 1t will seem that
his abrupt removal would have been
mercy to all concerned.
