RACE TRACK. GRAVESEND. May
GA large crowd Journeyed to the
track this afternoon. over 10000 per-
sons were present when thebugle called
the horses to the post in the first race.
The track was still heavy. Had the
sun shone for a couple of hours this
morning It would have been in mir
condition.
The weather was cool but clear. and 1t
was the FIRST time race-goer have seen
a patch of blue sky for a week.
The Great American Stakes and tho
Maturity Handicap were the features
of the day, and It was expected that the
Rupert cracks would be ridden out
In the Great American. Betting was
brisk. and the bookies were kept fairly
busy during the afternoon.
Only seven of the fifteen starters went
to the post In the first race, with Po-
tentate a hot favorite. O'Connell was
a strong second choice up to n few min
utes before post time. Then his owners
walked him before the Stewards, claim
ing that he was lame, n asked per-
mission to withdraw him.
The horse did show a little lameness,
but not enough to warrant his being
couple OF points. Annie Bishop and
Sirocco were well played.
O'Connell again proved himself faint
hearted and gave up the struggle after
making the running for half a mile
under a choking pull. Potentate, the
favorite. had no difficulty in winning.
n Peter the Great, an outsider, beat
Captain T. for the place.
Sullcross opened a 7 TO 8 favorite In
the second race, but went back to s to
2. Towards the close the money went
on and he dropped a couple of points.
The receding In price was due to the
fact others were all. more or less. sup
ported.
The favorite won, and his victory was
entirely due to the persistent and deter
mined riding OF Hueston. He whipped
and spurred Sulross for a quarter OF a
mile and finally nailed Watterson in
the last jump. A furlong from nome

Mount MaibOurg, near the town OF
Lassa. where at present the Delai
lama dwells. These rolls are written
in the Pail language, which certain
lamas still study that they may be
able to make translations IN the 1ibe-
tan dialect.
The manuscript first tells us, with
out explanation or details, that, alter
the story OF some merchants who had
come from Judea, just man by the
name of lssa, an Israelite, after hav-
ing been twice acquitted by the
Judges as being the man of God, was
nevertheless put TO death by the order
of the pagan governor, Plate, VINO
feared that Issa would profit by his
great popularity 10 re.establish the
kingdom of Israel and expel those
who had conquered it. Then come
rather inCoherent communications
about the preaching Of Issa among
the Guebres and other pagans. These
accounts seem to relate to the first
wears which followed the death of
Lisa, for whom more aud more vivid
interest was felt. One OF these accounts,
communicated by a merchant who
bad come from Israel, treated OF the
origin Of Issa and his family, another
of the expulsion of his followers and
the prosecutions they endured.
IL 10 not until the end of the second
volume that the first categorical
affirmation of the Chronicler is found,
where he says that Issa Is the man
blessed by God and beet OF all men,
and that he it is whom the great
Brahma selected to incavnate In him
his spirit which at fixed time was
detached by fate from the supreme
being. Jesus dwelt many years
among the Buddhists; then having
arrived at the age Of rs years he re,
mem bsred his own country oppressed
by the foreign yoke and returned to
It, Along the route he preached
against idolatry, human sacrifices and
religious errors, eXhOrting everyone
TO recognize and adore God, the father
of all beings, who cherishes the slaves
as well as the masters, for all are his
children, to whom he has given as a
common heritage this beautiful uni
verse.

1.-THE Democratic party is entitled to its
full share of the odium of this con,

began in 1873 and has been continued
by acts of congress since that time,
and tie Gu minating feature of t was
when The Democratic administration
insisted upon the repeal of the Sher

an absolute gold basis"
Pending Teller's speech, the 2 o'clock
election bill was taken up and the
financial resolution went over. Sena
tor Chandler introduced two amend
ments to the bill, first providing that
the flag of the United States and
words For Representative in Con

ty on every box for congressional bal.
lots in elections in state, and the Sec
ond amendment requiring election
judges to make up any publicly de-
