New York, July IA sale of thor
oughbred yearlings is always a strong
reminder of a great race meeting. You
run across the same familiar faces, hear
the same talk the same good-natured
banter that reaches your ears on race
days. The betting ring at the tracks is
always overcrowded, not by the people
who actually have money to back their
judgment, but by all the hangers-on of
racing, who are there out Of pure idle
curiosity, and never, by any hazard. have
q dollar to invest upon anyth ing. A sale
of thorough breds is very much on the
same lines. There are a thousand peo-
pie present, and not over fifty buyers
all told. This is particularly true
when the animals TO be sold are
offered by one of the great breed
ing farms, where fashionable
families of the stud book are well repre-
sented, and are sure to bring long prices
far ana away beyond the purses of the
small owners" who are of course the
majority.
EX-Postmaster Wanamaker drove the
Louisiana lottery ont of existence in this
country by closing the United States
mails to its use; but there is a greater
lottery in fiourishing condition in the
spring of each year, and that is the buy
ing of thorough bred yearlings. AS a
game OF hazard, it is far ahead of rou-
lette, faro, or three-card monte
in fact, it closely resembles the last
named serious occupation, inGsmuch as
now you see it and now you don't. /"
People in buying yearlings, race horses in
petto, are guided entirely, first by the ap-
pearance and general conformation of the
individual. So are all other horses
bought, but the thoroughbred has an ex-
tenslve family tree, and family in a
thoroughbred is sine qua non of merit
| The lottery comes in because there are
black sheep in every family, horse and
otherwise, and it frequently happens that
the highest-priced yearling of his years
turns out to be rank counterfeit. Look
at King Thomas bringing $4,000 at the
first of the Haggin sales, and never won
enough money to pay for his straw, let
| alone his oats And Experiment, which
| Fred. Gerhard bought at the Wetters
sale, and at the top price, could run no
faster than a Belt Line car horse. And
so on ad infnitum.

The Cotton Palace.

Waco papers are urging with
vigor the erection of the proposed
cotton palace in that city, and they
are doing so without remuneration
and with no other hope OF reward
than the general good to be derived
from such an undertaking. The
cotton palace should be built, and
Waco will never regret the step if
she takes it, 1t will surely prove
bonanz, to the Central City Nc.

by the crowded house which listened
to it.
1t was meant by the governor as
an honest effort on his part to heel
the breach in the party and as such
will no doubt oe received by the
rank and file of tho late opposition
to organiz,d Democracy in this
state, and that they will accept the
invitation and participate in the
primaries and in the county and
state conventions when called by
the state executive com mittee is not
in the least questioned. That the
leaders of the opposition will re-
main out and cooperate with the
Republicans or Populists, as circum-
stances may direct, is also t2lerably
certain. Their acting in this way
will not be cause for alarm to the
regular party organic alton; for

serted by his soldiers.
