&A+35L$<N were Lney, do I"
rule, so good.
Not only were some grand perform
anceS recorded TO their credit III races
exclusively for them, but, says WtlCeI
III the Chicago Tribune, they broke lnto
the alleged races more than ever DE-
fore i'll the history of the turf.
When Kingman with 10Y pounds up
ran fifth in the Wheeler handicap or
1891 the Western turf was ready 10 &C
cord the colt the highest praise. lie
carried two pounds less than his weight
for age.
If the turf patrons were ready 10 ac-
cord Kingman generous praise for MS
performance, they must have stood
agape i'll wonder at the doings OF the
three-year-oldS Of this year.
AS early as April WadSworth was
winning stakes for three-year-o anu
upwards at Lexington, and from that
time on the three-year-olds became I'm.
portant factors in the ail-aged races or
the year, whether in handicap or con-
dition events, with their weight for
age up.
As early as June Lamplighter ran
third in the Suburban with tO4 pounds
up, only three off his weight for age.
Montana, the winner, had seven off and
Major DOmO, the second horse, eleVeh
off, SO that Lamplighter'S performance
was really a marvellous one: Loco
batchee, another three-year-old, was
right up in the first flight in the same
race.
Later on Ceverton is seen winning the
lakewood handicap at Washington Park
and Yo Tambie" the Great western
handicap.
I his last performance must rank with
the best of the decade. The grand fliy
with five POUNDS more than her scale
weight and giving nearly twenty pounds
to as good a performer as Joe Black,
burn, romped home in the phenomenal
time of 1854 for mile and half.
LampIIghter's Quality Was Great.
Later on Lamplighter is seen winning
the Champion stakes, carrying his
weight for age, or equal impost on the
scale, with Banquet, Montana, Raceland
and Demuth, and finally leading with
the Brooklyn specials, feat accom-
plished but once before, by Kingston,
and then the brown whirlWind was an
aged horse. In the last special Lamp

IN NEED OF REST.
Justice Lamar to Go South to Re-
cuperate.

WASHINGTON, Dec. 17.-It is proba-
ble,that Justice Lamar, of the United
States supreme court, will not sit again
with the court during the present term.
The illness which has confined him to
his bed for several days past and for
intermittent periods before the present
attack does not show any signs of rapid
improvement, although it is not consid-
cred dangerous, and the family of the
venerable iurist think it best to remove
him to some climate better suited for
treatment. Justice Lamar, it is be-
lieved, needs rest more than any other
medicine. and if the slight improve
ment which was perceptible Yesterday
and today should continue he will prob
ably be removed from Washington to
some place not yet decided upon.

The Litchfe1d Murder Case.

LITCHFIELD, Aug 10. - Nicholas
O'Brien, who was arrested Wednesday
for being drunk at his wife's funeral,
was yesterday sentenced to Jail for
thirty days for being drunk and fined
81 and thirty days more for breach of
the peace. This will keep him in Jail
until he is arraigned in the superior
court on the charge of manslaughter.
The citizens of Litchfield are very indig-
nant at the fake stories that have been
sent out from here stating that the
people of the town had threatened to
lynch O'Brien. No such threats have
been made, as the residents of the town
are willing that the law should take it's
course and they have no desire to inter-
fere. The verdict of the coroner has not
vet been given out.

The storm at New Haven.

NEW HAVEN, August 13.-The storm
that broke over this city shortly after
ten o'clock last night was the fercest
exerienced in this vicinity for years. 1t
was the result of the meeting of two
heavy showers from south and east, and
their combined fury proved very
disastrous for telegraph and telephone
offices. The lightning was very close
and for over half an hour the streets of
the city were alight with glare like
that of MONDAY. Early in the storm
the electric lights in the Western Union
telegraph office went out and left the
operators in total darkness. Many of
the wires of this company were also
burned out and the service badly
crippled. The electric light and fire
alarm circuits were also damaged con-
siderablY.
