Talking yesterday to State Herald
representative, a promoter of the Biz
mingham race meeting sal:
THAT racing directly benefits city has
been shown conclusively any number of
times 1t has been estimated that over
100000 was spent in Chicago in prepara-
ton for the American Derby alone, and
that over s2,o0oO0O was spent yearly in
that city while the races were in prog
ress Racing always brings large crowds
of strangers to the city, who spend money
with the hotels, merchants, and, in fact,
it directly benefits all classes of trade.
THE inaugural meeting of the Brming-
ham Jockey club is already an assured
success. Secretary Dargn is receiving
letters every day from all parts of the
country from horsemen and lovers of the
sport who will be here during the meet
ing. No class of people are more liberal
than these, and none spend more money"
The horses now stabbed at the track
and those that will come to participate
in the races are all first-class, and will
afterwards go to Little Rock, Memphis,
Nashville, Cincinnati Chicago and some
to the east, where they are entered in
some of the richest stakes of America.
Such horses as O'Conne1l Forget, Gov
ernor Sheehan, Assignee, Lizetta, Prime
Minister and numerous others now here
are of the first-class, and can win in any
kind of company.
The cream of the horses at New Orleans
will be shipped here. Sharp & Payne,
with stable of fourteen flyers; w. H.
Roller, with Mile M, Kikita and others;
j. j. Marklein, Ireland Bros, w. G.. Can
non and others, owning over a hundred
and fifty thoroughbreds, will ship here
at once.
The atmosphere is already filled with
good things" and "air tight cinches."
1.-The proverbial tout will also be along di-
rectly with news of the horse that
worked so fast before daylight that he
stopped all the watches.
]. ]. Carter will be the presiding judge
and chairman of the board of stewards.
Mr. Carter is one of the most prominent
judges in America, and will afterwards
officiate at Memphis, Nashville and for
the rest of the summer at the st. Louis
fair grounds, ST. Louis.
Everyone in the racing world knows
kit Chinn, the starter, and his assist
ant, ben" Payne. Mr. Chinn has
reputation for being fair, impartial and
one of the best starters that ever handled
a flag. The association have spared no
pains nor expense to secure the best Of
fcials to be had, and everything points
to an unqualified success.
Birmingham should be and will be one
of the racing centers of the south, and in
short time will surpass New Orleans In
every way
Sol Sharp, one Of the chief promoters
of the Newport track, near Cincinnati,
in company with Mr. w. H. Cheppu, WIS.,
tied the local track yesterday, and ex-
pressed himself very forcibly in favor of
the track and general surroundings. Mr..
Sharp was so well pleased that he will
order his horses here at once, and also
induce several bookmakers to put up
their states here.

WHY NOT PRODUCE SILK?
Inquiry From an Eastern Party-What an En-.
terprsing Colored Citizen Has
Il Proved. s

The secretary of the Commercial club
is in receipt of a communica ton from the
manager of a large silk factory in New
Jersey, asking for informa ton and the
possibilities of such an industry in Bir-
mingham, also as to the health, growth
and general advantages of the worming
plant.
The gentleman says such a factory as
his company has in contemplate would
work about 200 hands and that they have
ample capital of their own. and the best
location for the plant is what they are
seeking.
1t might be well 10 state here that Sam
uel Lowry, colored citizen of this coun-
ty, some fifteen years ago began the cul-
ture of the worm for pastme. His daugh-
ter, who was at that time a teacher in
the colored schools at Huntsville, and far
above the average Of her race in intelli-
gence, became so interested in the culture
of the worm that she obtained the best
litera ture written on the subject, both in
this country and the silk growing coun-
tres of the east. After accommodating a
small quantity of the product. Lowry
opened up a correspondence with the
American silk manufacturers and found
no trouble in disposing of his stock at
good price.
AT the New Orleans exposition he
pldceu SOME OI MS WUTmS ana clOtn
woven from the raw silk by his daughter
on rough hand loom on exhibition and
was awarded the first premium versome
of the most expert silk growers of Eu-
rope
Four years ago Lowry bought ten
acres of land four miles from Birming-
ham, on which he planted mulberry trees
with the purpose of giving his entire at
tention to silk raising. About two months
ago he visited the State Herald office and
stated that his trees have done finely
now about four years old, and he sees
a fortune just ahead for him;
that he was in correspondence with the
American ministers in France and Japan
and had been promised some very fine
eggs for his silk farm. That from his
experience he prefers the Japan worm to
all others; that they seem to do better
here than the other varieties.
Lowry has visited several of the leading
silk manufactures of America, and says
he is unable to see why his white frienda
who have the money have paid so little
attention to this industry. That it pays
we'll even to raise and sell the raw ma
terial, and more than 100 per cent could
be saved by manufacturing It.. That the
work Is easy, consisting mainly in care
full watching and protecting of the worm
when at work and the safety of the egg.
