nouuced much better actor than eith, I
Corbett or Sullivan. The kind words Of

rounded him with q high-class company,
beautiful and costly scenic effects, and

Jackson assumes his character of 'Unele
Tom," he will box three scientific rounds
with Joseph Choynski, the young Califor-
MAN, whose battles with Corbett and Joe

Han. James W. Bradbury, Who returned
Tuesday evening from visit To the Colam-
h.n Exposition, vas seen Wednesday
Morning by JOURNAL reporter, Who re-
oae,sed some expression Of the Impressions
he received from his visit.
consiaeriag that Mr.. Bradbury 10 in his
saa yesr, It was almost surprising % Ind
hin, appearing fresh and vigorous after bis
lang Journey, not evineins the least sign Of
,,tlpus and rather Improved in health. OF
eourse, this journey, which exceedingly
lev would have undertaken, vas made nm
der the very best advantages and in the
eampsny and under the care Of members Of
bic family.
When told that the JOURNAL readers
vsuH be pleased 70 have him sive for pub
LEGATION some of the impressions he received
from his visit to the White City, he thought
tia, 40 mach had been said about the Ex-
na.ition that nothing he might say would be
Of interest.
He said the besutifui architecture, the
m.spisude Of the whole. the broad scale on
xhieh il 10 laid out far exceeded his ex-
pecsssions.
Il was sgreeably surprised. delighted
With the artistic effect Of the buildings Of
the Exposition, and the perfection Of al the
arrangements. While the buildings Of
several of the nations are in away models
Of architecture thought the National build
ing Of our own country surpassed them ~
regards architectural beauty"
Mr.. Bradbury said he was exceedingly
interested in the exhibits. especially in the
mechanical and agricultural departments.
He thought the csravels - an exhibit Of the
conditions Of naval architecture at that TIME
very fine.
He took much interest in the state build
ing, and the fine exhibits of state produc-
TONS in the California, Idaho and Iowa
buildings.
But" continued Mr.. Bradbury, 81 was
a. much interested in my visit to the city
a was to the FAIR You see | had not
been in Chicago for 81 years and the con-
trass made vivid impression on my mind.
The immense distances, the elegance Of
many Of the private residences upon the
avenues, the massive architecture OF the
business blocks, some of them towering
nearly 20 stories, the magnificence even OF
the business portion of the city are wonder
full. Such an exhibition Of wealth exceed
ed my antieipstions.
The Fair aud the city taken as whole
gives us some idea of the wealth and mag
niHcence and extent Of our great country"

stand, and stand they did, for the seats and
settees had enough mist or rain on them to
lrrigats strawberry patch. Most Of them
ould bet on the races if they were stand
ing on their heads, and yesterday some of
them bet so unsuccesSfully that they threaten
to join the Hsrd-luek Club. a number Of
them have followed the turf SO long that
they can discourse pedigrees and perform
ances and say, Il win $50. or II lose S20,"
with all the sang frOid of veterans of the
male sex.
One of them picked up a programme
before the first race and scanned it care
fully. 1t was selling event at five fur
longs, and il interested her because she
thought she might be able TO plunge on it.
Presently she passed the card TO a friend
somewhat younger, but very voluble
Jack the Ripper was The first horses name
that caught her eye.

quit doing anything some time ago." The
next was Oakland. II don't like Oakland.

Well, he won't do. An! Gypsy Girl Will
cross Of gypsy blood in me, myself. You
like ber to win. don't you. Minnie? Well, We
will just bet $40 on her.
The friend of the voluble young woman
acQulesced and all those who were listening
with interest TO the dissertation on the re-
speetive quality OF those starters smiled
when they heard them call an official pool
buyer and commission him to bet the
money.
II they had let him go without asking him
questions everything would have been rosy
for them. They didn't though, for the vGIu-
bic lady said. What do you think OF Gypsy
GirI2"
The lad answered: "She can't beat a
goat. Some fellow named Caps, who never
rode anything in his life but hobby-horse,
Is going to ride her. She has got top weight
on, and the bookles will bet you % to l
that she don't win. / think Tigress will
win; you had better play her."
The women glared at each other for mo-
ment, and like most other devotees of the
turf decided against their first judgment
OF rather. In this case, their first impulses.
They told the boy 10 put the $40 on TigBess,
and subsequently they received a ticket
calling for SS5 il that animal won.

The California stakes, for two-year.olds,
has been run again.
Yesterday eight of the best-bred young
STEERS ever seen on the turf this side of the
Rockies contested for it, and Filtration, a
grandiy bred, handsome and racy-looking
FLY, won it easily.
There have been better days for racing,
yet about 1000 people braved the uncertain
weather and gathered in the open at the
Bay District.
Whenever the spring meeting of the
Blood-hOrse Association comes on rain is
generally expected. Now, many were will

1t is not to be expected that every one
can be weather prophet. or even see the
signals of the Governments prophet. Those
who can see them, in most cases cannot
read them, and there you are.
In consequence. when 1T rained spasmodi-
cally, men arrayed in gorgeous summer
suits, and others wearing delightful spring
coverings, could be seen running into COW

those worn by l.nd-lubbers on their first day

LEPERS AT LARGE.
Escape of Three Pestfouse
Patients.
THEIR QUARTERS TOO FLIMsY.
Two Hawaiians Have Been Gone Since
Last Wednesday, and Chinaman
Left on Monday.

Three lepers are missing from the Pest
house and the police are using every effort
tn locate them. but as two of them have
been gone since last Wednesday there is
little hope of their capture.
Although there has been general outcry
against the present condition and site of
the Pesthouse, the Board of Supervisors have
not yet secured place where patients with
dreaded maladiss can be held in secure con-
fnement
The escape Of the three lepers from the
Pesthouse shows plainly that the institution
is not up 10 requirements, and that any in
mate who desires 10 leave the place at any
time can do so with little fear of being in
tercepted.
OF the three men, one has had a former
experience in getting away from the place.
His name is William Horn, and it will be
recalled by many people that he left The
Institution on February II. 1890. in company
with female who had been EMPLOYED as a
nurse for smallpox patients confined in the
hospital. After an absence of three wears
he voluntarily returned February 10, 1898.
Horn is a native of the Hawaiian Islands,
and is Of family of nineteen children. He
has been leper for many years, being a
