Betokens Confidence.

PoUGHKEEPsIE, n. Y, Nov. 2-Observers
of the political situation in Duchess
county are commenting upon the fact that
Vice president Morton's coachman hes been
going about the village of Rhinebeck for
the past few dsys offering to bet sl0O on
HarrIson's election and that the Republic
ans will carry New York State. For many
ton every body hereabouts waited for some
indication of how Mr.. Morton felt. This
sudden confidence on the part of his coach
man is regarded as straw by observers in
this vicinity.

G. w. Hooker of BrattlebDrO is president,
held in Rutland, Thursday Jan. 18th, it
was voted to hold the annual summer ex-
hibition in this place August 30, 81 and
September /. The only offer made by
the people of the town to induce the as
sOciatiOn to come here was the free use
of the grounds during the week of the
meeting and the week previous. Bur-
lingtOn people wanted the meeting there
but made no offer. The management is
confident that the coming meeting will
be the most successful one in the history
of the association, and predict that Rut-
land will be selected AS the permanent
home of Vermont breeders. The stakes
are as follows: No. l, Association Stakes,
for foals Of 1891; No. 2, Pine Hill Stock
Farms Stakes, for foals of 1890; No. 3,

was read from DIR. w. s. Webb of New
York in which he offered premium of
500 for the best pair of carriage horses
over 1871 hands and under 1873, suitable
for New York markets. There was talk
of having Morgan stock represented at
the Worlds Fair, and committee was
appointed to confer with Vermont's
Worlds Fair Com niSsiOneIs.

If every man could have everything
he wanted, what an embarrassing place
this world would be for the men, and
what an unhappy place for the women.

She: Did you ever try howlingP He:
Gwacious, no! It-aw-wequires too
much thought, don't you know, to keep

That "a good name is rather to he
chosen than great riches" finds practi-
cal and very unusual illustration in the
fact that s. V. White of the well-known
New York brokers' firm of s. V. White

81 900, 000 has been released by his
creditors from all his liabilities on his
simple promise to pay rs soon as he can,
and has been reinstated on the stock ex-
change.
conservative prophets estimate that
the railroads of the country will earn
1927, 900, 900 extra this year, because of the
great foreign demand for American
gram, necessitating unusual fright hauls.
! 1t should not be forgotten that the Re-
publican policy of reciprocity has greatly
stimulated that demand. Common sense,
therefore, approves the continuance of
both party and policy; and the campaign
of 1892 win be eminently common

Chicago exDects to entertain 0,000,-
600 visitors at the Worlds FAIR 1t is a
reasonable average estimate to suppose
that each visitor will spend S3l. Very
few spent less at either Philadelphia or
Paris. And Chicago, which will have
greater attractions than either, will no
doubt extract equal or greater amounts
from attendants pocket books. That
means $780, 900. 1t will give great
impetus to trade, since the money, once

they would soon sea the mugwump

name?" asked the traveller. '!sYOu will
understand as soon as you see the spring"
replied the man. They passed along by
sp0uting springs and gvsers until they
come to one where the guide said: Here
is the mugwump spring, now wait and

A young Philadelphian, who has been

newspaper in this city, went abroad and
secured a position as reporter for the
London Times. When he was deemed
sufficiently broken in he was sent out
one evening to write up the story of a
rich and beautiful girl who had taken
chloroform because her lover failed to
appear at the altar when due.
The young Philadeiphian raced MIN

Not far from midnight he sped up the

NANCY HANKS AGAIN.
She Clips Two Seconds from the
Worlds Record
OVER IowA's KITE SHAPED TRACK.

The Most Marvellous Performance
Ever Seen on a Race Track-Th,
First Quarter Trotted I'm 80 Sec
onds, the Half in 1.O1, Three Quar-.
ters in 1.3 /, the Mile in 2.05 Ia.
INDEPENDENCE, Ia, Sept. 1.--Nancs
Hanks yesterday clipped two seconds
from the worlds trotting record, made
by herself in Chicago three weeks ago
and made the circuit of the Indepen
dence famous kite shaped track in 2. O5t
record breaking mile, and Nancy proved
herself fully equal to the occasion.
At $50 o'clock Nancy Hanks was
brought ont for a warming up mile
When she first appeared on the turf
with her great driver, Doble, in the sulky
cheers greeted the pair, and eager eyes
followed her the entire mile. At 4
o'clock she again appeared and the run
was repeated. Her perfect form and ac-
tion and perfect day made everything
in her favor.
Promptly at o'clock the great horse
appeared for the trial. Doble donned
his driving cap and the announcement
was made that Nancy Hanks, holding
the worlds record was ready to start.
Two prompters appeared to help her
along with their hoof beats in the
greatest mile of her life. In the second
score Doble's head gave quick, de-
cisive nod, the word was given and a
hundred watches were started to mark
the seconds until she should appear un-
der the wire. Old Abe Lincoln, who
went the mile with her in Chicago iu
07t, piloted by Frank Starr, took his
place next the mare and Williams, driv-
ing his runner, Ned Gorden, went to
the outside. prepared to come in the
home stretch.
With her smooth, easy, perfect and
matchless gait Nancy Hanks trotted the
quarter in thirty seconds. At the half
she turned in 1.0l without misstep.
Then began her grand race home With
out q wobble and with perfect swing
she shot past the third quarter pole in
l,34. Here Williams came up with his
runner and Doble loosened the mares
head. He encouraged her by voice and
gentle use of the whip, and without
falter she shot under the wire in 2.054.
For one long minute breathless si-
ience reigned. Everyone was consult
Ing bis watch aud the figures at which
the hands had stopped held the crowd
in awe. Then, awake to the fact that
all records had been broken, the great
assembly burst into cheers loud and
long as the queen of all trotters was
driven back to the stand. Doble grace
fully lifted his cap in recognition of the
cheers showered upon him. Doble was
lifted from his sulky by the enthusiastic
crowd and men fought like maniacs in
the scramble to grasp the successful
drivers hand and shower congratula-
tlons upon him. Others ran up and
caressed the mare as she was being
blanlleted and led from the track.
Another Record Lowered.
BANGOR, Me-, Sept. 1,--At the East
ern Maine State fair yesterday after
noon the stallion Nelson was sent to
beat the worlds record of 2.15l on
half mile track made by him two years
ago, and trotted the mile in 2.13s.

His subsequent career is known and

it would bring us into current politics.
His summer home at Ashtield, in west
