While fast time has been out of the ques-
ton at the Terre Haute meeting because Of
the condition of the track, the racing has
been all that could be desired from several
points of view
The horses have proven what has been said
of them, capable of showing a good race,
and all Of the fields have been punched at
the finishes. while there have been but one
or two events on the programmes where
the winner beat his field out by more than
two lengths
Indianapolis race-goers will by no means
be disappointed If the work at Terre Haute
is repeated in this city. The half dozen or
more carloads CT horses that will be here
that are not at Terre Haute will give addi-
tional horses in each race and some uncer-
taipties for the talent to become acquainted
with.
There will be five events each day at the
Indianapolis track. with the big events on
Wednesday--the indianapolis handicap-and
on Memorial day. With anything like en-
Friday, the programme having been left
open for this emergency. The cream OF the
bangtails that have been running at ror-
track. and some Of the good ones that were
at Louisville, and what will go to Oakley
later will be here. The horses that are az

The festivities at Moscow cannot be said
to be In full swing. although many rotable
have been paid thus for to Ii Hung Chang
and Marshal Yamaeata as the representa-

Gus sosencc OF cna Ha s DAVIS me
tended to restrain in a measure the wild
enthusiasm of the. people. II was thought
that Mr.. Davis would arrive the imperial
train. and great was the disappointment
when the Emperor admitted that he was
not on board While II Is not likely THAT
reason of Mr. Davis's inexplicable delay. IL
is not to be denied that the brilliancy of
the occasion will be in measurable
eclipse thereby. We scout the rumor that
Mr. Davis has fallen into the hands of Nj
hilists and has been spirited away in order
to embarrass the royal party. and we are
confident that he will be heard from in due
time. -

reporter. Mr.; Kiplins said, with a smile:'
"Ah, now this Interview will stop"
There was little IN Mr.. Kipling's manners
at the hearing Tuesday which INDICATED that
he was suffering under any strain. or that
the proceedings were repu1zive or objection
able TO him. He laughed at the jokes he
interjected phrases when the lawyers were
making their arguments or objections. An0
still IL is not improbable that Mr.. Kipling
was making the best OF & disagreable situa-
ton.
II the grand jury finds an indictment next
September IL will surprise people. OF course,
Mr., Kipling must go up 70 Newfane and
tell his story before the grand jury again
II the case is pressed, and II an indictment
Is found must tell It a little later In the
county court If he desires advertising he
will be likely TO secure liberal quantities
But IL. as he claims, his time Is worth 800
a day, IL would be full as cheap 10 pay
Beatty's debts as TO fool away time and
experience annoyance at the county court
SO far as legal or court proceedings are
concerned, the chances are that the last
has been heard Of the Kipling- Balestier fam
lily row.

tinctly American story Will be published
soon and the scene is laio In Gloucester.

Philadelphia North American.

We have seen that a knowledge of
finance and political economy is not held
essential TO the candidacy OF a Democrat
for the highest position. Still IL Is not
peasant TO have an avowed asoirant for
the nomination publicly expose his ig-
norance of the fact that we have had the

Congress and a Democratic President. The
excuse may be that from 1886 to 1S76-forty
years-nobody had any silver that could be
