TAR-HEFL RECORD

Eutaula. the Three ear~Oid Pamilc0
Colt Makes a Hall Mile Wednesday
i'm 1904 at Mayesvilie, ky.-Mr.
RatchelOr Makes Some Casual Re-
marks A bout the Great Stallion, and
Makes Some Comments on the De-
feat of Gentry-He Couldn't Have
Been i'm Condition Against Such
Time.
A letter received here yesterday said
that in Mayesville, KY, Wednesday,
Mr.. J. S. Carr's colt, Eufaula, 8 years
old made one-half mile in :O4.
Mr. Plummer Bachelor speaking yes
terday of the perfo, nance said that the
mile record for three year ODDS was either
$40 1-2 or 2:10.
Eufaula is out of Gladys by Pamlico
whose memory is yet kept green in the
mind of Mr.. Bachelor, who was his
owner For" continued Mr.. Batchelor,
'If Pamlico had lived, I believe he
would have been the horse of
of bis generation as much as George
Wilkes was the horse of his generation.
/ never have seen one of his colts that
didn't show speed no matter who were
their DAMS
Speaking of the great race yesterday
between Patchen and Gentry, Mr.
Bachelor said that he might say he was
right in his feeling of the day before that
Patchen could not have been in condition
to have lost against such time. He said
the meeting so far at Chicago had
netted a loss probably ef some
$40, 900, and he would not be surprised
to hear that yesterdays contest pulled
them out.
Before the race had been pulled of,
Mr. Bachelor yesterday afternoon said,
''if Gentry beats Patchen, he is incom
parably the better horse. Patchen has
had four winning races and Gentry has
had only one, which was walk over.
The only way to get horse in condition
to race is to race him."
The people of Raleigh were much in
terested yesterday about this track event,
and enquiry began to BE- active before
five o'clock in the afternoon. The first
bulletin, about seven, was eagerly lis
tened to, and the special sporting editor
was kept busy answering questions till
late at night, the whole answer being
wrapped up in the second bulletin as
follows:
WASHINGTON PARK, Aug. 22.-Joe
Patchen won the first heat in 2:05 Id;
second in 2;07 1 4; third in 2;07 IA. "

tablished in Cuba.
TAMPA, Fla, Aug. go Passengers ar
irving from Cuba to night report the re-
turn to Havana of eighty four wounded
firemen who had gone with a detach-
ment to Santa Clara, where the insur-
gents gave battle.
When the steamer left Havana prepar-
atoms were completed for a meeting
of the representatives of the dis
tricts to assemble at Nagasa, in
Puerto Principe Province, for the pur-
pose of establishing Provincial govern
ment. Reports say that Gen. Masso will
be President; Gen Maxine Gomez, Com
mander in chief of the army; and Mar
quis De La Satanic Lucia, Secretary of
the interior.
Immediately after the election by dis
trict delegates the cabinet appointments
will be made. Passengers report the
revolution progressing most fo.vorably
and Cubans most hopeful.
EngIand's View of the Situation.
LONDON, Aug. 23.-The Havana cor
respondent of the Times, writing of the
gravity Of the situation there, urges the
necessity of large concessions in the
die }Jion of autonomy or also even loyal
Cub will drift into dislOyaIty.
THE only alternative is costly cam
paign in men aud money" the cores
pondent adds, followed by the occupa-
ton of the island by 10000 men for
decade"
In an editorial on the foregoing the
Times also says:
1.-THE failure of CampOs to suppress the
rebellion has caused bitter dlsappoint
ment in Madrid. We sympathize heart
lily with SPANS patriotic determination
to hold Cuba at any sacrifice, and
We admire her energy, however, misdi-
rected, in resisting projects for further
dIsintegratiOn and plots concerted in for
eign countries to foment rebellion among
subjects. At the same time, it is suiCi
dial folly for any nation obstlnately to
refuse t. look facts in the face. English
men have no desire to see Cuba sepa-
ra ed from Spa n. The Il ovement for
annexation TO America is opposed by
most intelligent and independent Ameri
cans of all parties, and for obvious
political reasons, annexation to
America would be regarded with little
favor by British statesmen. We should
be well pleased if Spain were able to
arrive at a practical settlement with her
rebellions subjects, but that demands a
quality of craftsmanship far higher than
has yet been displayed and if Gen.
Campos is to gain victory, he must
show greater energy and ingenuity than
hitherto"

TOBACCO SALES YESTERDAY.


There Was Spirited Gathering the
Opening Day, and About 10000
Pounds SOId--The Average Price was
From TO Cents Per Pound, the
Highest Lot Bringing As Ccnts-""
There Will be DAILY Sales Here
after.
There had not been any elaborate men
ton of the fact that the opening tobacco
sales would take place yesterday at the
Raleigh warehouses. And yet the to-
bacco was there and the people toe, to
the number of fifty or more, good
gathering for the start.
Besides farmers and people from this
city, among whom there was dainty
sprinkling of young women, attracted
thither by the novelty, there were also
buyers from Durham, Henderson and
other points.
The Raleigh tobacco men, of course,
were in evidence, and among those from
Durham were Messrs. W. L. Terrell and
John W. Pope. There came from Dur
ham Mr.. ]. q. Day, also, brother in
law of Mr. Pope, and an auctioneer of
tobacco in Louisville, KY. Mr.. Day
was much interested in the sales,
despite the fact that in Louisville the
daily sales, he said, ran to the !, 100000
pounds figure. Mr. Ferr- Il said that the
offerings yesterday amounted to about
10000 pounds, and the prices ave. aged
from s to 8 cents per pound. The
highest price brought was AZ cents, said
Mr. Terrell.
The sales took place respectively at
the Meadows and the Farmers ware
houres. The Farmers will be conducted
by Messrs. Williamson and Lea. Mr..
Lea has Just removed from Durham to
enter into this partnership with Mr..
Robert Williamson, of this city. Mr..
Maynard Mangum, also of Durham,
has left Durham, associating himself
with DR.. Meadows, formerly of Louis
burg, in the conduct of Meadows ware
house.
The offerings came from the counties
of Wake, Franklin, Chatham, Johnston,
Granville and Wilson. The highest
prices received were by Messrs. Baugh
and A. 7, Goodwin, Of Wake, the latter
receiving $50 for his lot.
II Wei pOotbu IOUdCCo udu Sdlu gtS
terday that during the season, there
would be probably not less than 2,000,
900 pounds handled here, and that
there would be daily breaks hereafter
Every pound Of tobacco sold practical
ly draws money from the pockets Of those
outside of the state, and thus there is
none of the Jack knife swap about the
trade. There is much Of promise about
such activity as that involved in these
tobacco sales. 1t means the healthy ex-
change Of the product of our own labor
for outside money, which in turn goes to
help the home merchant. 1t means more
comfort and cash for the farmer from
those who are able to make such con
tribution. For tobacco is as good for
money as the United States bond the
world over, and, in some respects, better.

DEATH OF MISS DAISY HAIR
WARD.

This Young Woman, of Seventeen
Years, Passed Away at Her Home
Yesterday Morning. The Funeral
this Morning at Ten O'clock from
Edenton Street Methodist Church.
After an illness of a few weeks, Miss
Daisy Harvard died yesterday morning
of typhoid fever at the home of her
mother, Mrs. A. NJ Harvard, on South
Salisbury street.
Not until few days ago had her
friends become Unduly alarmed about
her, but stree then there had been con
slant enquiry concerning her condition,
aud the worst fears as to the result.
The fears have OILY TOO unhappily been
realized.
Miss Harwood was one Of a group Of
sisters to whom many people in Raleigh
are bound in affectionate esteem. The
deceased, though yet but girl, had
taken tender place among those who
knew her, especially among the people Of
Edenton Street Church, Of which she was
deyout and consistent member.
A friend speaking OF her yesterday
said hers was the love of music and Of
flowers and even during the days Of her
sickness she sang continually, until the
sweet notes went cut in weakness and
silence. And it is all so sad -plucked
in the bud as she was.
The funeral services will be conducted
at 10 o'clock this morning from Edenton
street Methodist church by the pastor,
Rev. DR.. j. n Cole.

was the widow of the late Thomas i
Cannon. Mrs. Collins then goes ON to sa
that in February, 1884, she bought Il certai;
