The August Races.

The CHRONICLE is greatly gratified at
its ability to announce that the number
of entries and the quality of the horses
for the August races here exceed the
most sanguine expectations of the gentle
men having the matter in charge. Out
of the State also these races and the
meeting of horse breeders at the same
time, are attracting much attention.
Clark's Horse Reoieao says: "a move
ment is on foot to organize State breed
ers' association in North Carolina, and a
preliminary meeting looking to this end
is to be held at Raleigh, Wednesday,
August II. A spirit of progressiveness
among the horsemen Of that State has
been quite noticeable of late and it is to
be hoped that the meeting on August II
will be attended by every one interested,
as successful State association is of un
told benefit to individual breeders, and
much good to the business in general has
resulted from those which have been il
active operation in various States fol
years. Let the breeders and horsemeI
of North Carolina see that the initia
meeting is we'll attended, and that prac
tical, progressive horsemen are chosen a!
officers"

Mitchell's Father Testifies While
She Smiles.
By Telegraph to the State Chronicle.
MEMPHIS, Tenn, July 1S.-The exam
ination of Alice Mitchell on her plea of
present insanity was begun in the crimi-
nal court this morning in the presence
OF large number of people. This trial
grows out of the murder of Miss Freda
Ward by Miss Mitchell, who cut her
throat from lear to ear with razor and
wounded her sister, 10. Ward. A
veni9, composed of the most prominent
business men in the city, was summoned
from which jury was selected. The
case now stands on the trial of this issue.
If Miss Mitchell is now declared to be
insane she will 60 to the asylum and re-
main until cured. If she be de-
clared cured, then she will be put on
trial, charged with murder, in
which trial she will plead insanity at the
time of the killing. The theory under
which her lawyers will make their de-
fense was an annual fiction existing be-
tween Alice Mitchell and Freda Ward
and that Miss Mitchells whole life was
that of an insane person. The State pro-
poses in this investigation to show that
Alice Mitchell did not have an aversion
to the society of men, but she had num-
erous lovers affairs with the masculine
sex and carried on quite an extensive cor
respondence with young men. The pris
Oncr was brought into the court heavily
veiled in company with deputy sheriff
and her two brothers. She manifested
no excitement but quietly conversed
with her brothers until the court cam,
in when she was required to remove he
veil. The work of selecting the jur,
occupied two hours and half. TIL,
only question asked them was whethe
or not they had an opinion as to Mis-
Mitchell's present insanity. The girl
father was the first witness, and he tolt
of his wife's temporary insanity whel
her first child was born, and also of he
mental alteration when Alice was born
Mr.. Mitchell wept bitterly while detail
ing the story but his daughter smiled a
if she thought the matter huge joke.

By Telegraph to the State Chronicle.
HOMESTEAD, Pa, July 1s.-At g.
o'clock this morning the watchmen
threw open the main gate in the two
miles of fence that surrounds the great
steel mills of the Carnegie company and
waited patiently for the appearance of
the five or six hundred mechanics who
were notified to report for duty this
morning and begin repairs preliminary
to the starting Of the mills. A United
Press reporter also waited patiently. A
few minutes tefore seven one man arrived
and was admitted without question.
Then came another and another
until twelve men had passed within
the gates. They were not the mechan-
les who were summoned. They were
not former employees returning to make
individual application for their old po-
sitions. They were the watchmen and
foremen who have remained loyal te-the
company and have been on duty since
the mills shut down. And thus did the
week open. Not one of the skilled me-
chanics reported at the Office, and des-
pite the official notices of superintendent
