publicans.
The r. b. Reed Club met last night in
the Republican headquarters and held a
long and harmonious meeting. In pur-
suance of its policy an invitation had been
extended to number of gentlemen to
discuss the attitude which colored Repub-
licans should assume this year toward the
Republican party, and what measures il
any should be taken TO insure lust recog-
milton. w. II. Liverpool, who has been a
supervisor of elections several years, is
president of the Seventh Ward Republican
Club and an applicant for a position in
the United States Custom House. spoke
at length, his remarks creating quite a
commotion.
Jordan H. Brooks said he had petitioned
for the appointment of colored men TO the
fire department, particularly to that sta
tion recently created, but without success.
Joseph w. Henderson said that the object
of the club was not to endorse men for
office until they had been nominated by
regular Republican conventions. That the
negro is not in the Republican party for
Office, but the party leaders are willing to
give him Offices which he can fill with
credit to himself and satisfaction TO the
appointing power. An intelligent, perfect
organization was what the colored people
need and the Thomas II. Reed Club is Ut
least the nucleus of that organization.
Mr.. Henderson was applauded Next
Tuesday night delegates will be elected TO
the league meeting the 18th inst, and the
executive committee of the club will be
appointed.

runner speeding 2.40 shot he sails along

CHALLENGES THE WORLD.
Mr.. Reid Will Match His Colt Against
Anybody's Yeariings.

Wilson Reid Of Parkville, Long Island,
has colt foaled on April II, 1891, by Jay
Bird, sire of the famous Allerton, 2.09 IA,
out Of the General Stanton mare Nettie
T., 2.22 Ia, that he thinks will prove
world beater at the trotting gait.
At any rate, Mr.. Reid is ready to back
up his opinion with good hard cash, and
announces his willingness to match the
colt, which he has named j. It. Reid,
against any youngster of his age in the
world for 5000 up to Sc, 600 side, the race
to be trotted next October at Hartford,
Conn. Mr.. Reid is plain, straightfor-
ward, whole-souled Irishman, whose faint
brogue savors of the North rather than the
South of the Emerald Isfe, and when you
speak OF the colt or Nettie T., you touch
his tender spot. He bought Nettie IT,,
some years ago at Thorold. Ont, where
she was bred, and she proved her
self both fast and game, trotting to
record OF 2.22 Ia. Mr.. Reid bred her to
Jay Bird two years ago, and roam colt
was the produce. Mr.. Reid is not salts
fed with the colts name, and will change
it to Reid Bird before the spring. The
colt is big, but not leggy, standing full
fourteen hands high, but put together so
compactly that he looks smaller. He has

The Boundary Line.

A gentleman connected with the boundary survey between Fl Paso and San Diego informs the Prospec- tor that by no possibility could any variation be made Tn the present To- cation of the line. When asked about a recent rumor that the post marking the turning point or corner where the line turns south was mile out of the way he said, "Yes, that Is fact, the distance in the description of the original survey is given as 100 miles and the pres ent survey found the post or mon- ument to be but 99 miles distant from El Paso. This would give the United States a mile of territory now belonging to Mexico, were 1t not for clause in the original arti- cles of agreement between the Uni ted States and Mexico that in case any discrepancy in the location of monuments shall ever be found to exist, that neither country shall claim any territory by reason of such defect in the original survey. In the instance noted the line was found to be one mile short of the number of miles called for by the original survey, but the monument was found and will be reconstruct ed on the same spot that it was placed originally. The same course will be pursued throughout the length ot the entire line, and in case any discrepancy may be found whether it be one or twenty miles, it will not change the location of the present boundary between the two countries. The surveying is being dohe to ind the location of the monuments and reconstruct them, and will not and can not change it's location one foot either ay."-Prospector,
