Impossible To Carry Out Today's Pro-
gramme In the Snow.
There will be no racing at Guttenburg
today. The driving snowstorm of this
morning has covered the track TO the
depth of several inches, and it was i'm
possible to remove it in time for racing.
1t would have been dangerous to jock

and slush. and the management did the
proper thing to postpone.
All entries stand, however. N the pro-

A Curioua SunarstitIon.

A wedding occurred in New York
The only curious thing about the affair
was that the bride had but one eye, and
that the loss of the other was the cause
of the wedding.
They grew up together in their native
village in Austria without any special re.
gard for each other. A few months age
they were playing at cards, and Martin
by accident injured Victoria's eve. A
day or two after he sailed for America,
and lately heard that Victoria had losI
her eye through the accident. He i'm.
mediately wrote offering to marry her,
and the wedding resulted. 1t is a ira.
dition in Austria that if, an unmarried
man destroy the eye of an unmarried
woman, he must, within two twelve
months, make her his wife, or mourn
where'er he go, his days full of woe; in
life or death he shall know no rest, his
body accurst, his soul unblest, woe ia
him on earth or air, woe to him fore'er
and e'er." A tale is told of a Prince
Karl, who accidentally put out the eye
of a peasant girl. He wanted to marry
her, but the king would not consent. and
great misfortune pursued both. The
king was killed, and the prince after in.
credible suffering, committed suicide.
