TO-DAY AT THE TRACK.
A Brilliant Card of Events at Thun-
derbOIt.


With three harness and two running
events on the card. the Thunderbolt Driv-
ing park promises to be a lively place this
afternoon. The horses will be called at
$3.50 o'clock. The free-for-au pace win

will follow. There will be no delay be-
tween heats and the programme will last
fully three hours.
The Nelly Burke and Billy Buck match
race is the topic with the visiting horse

hot favorite The Tattnall county dele
cation think pretty well of the little black
mare, and she is in prime condition for
her race. The half-mile dash will be a
hot run from all accounts. Little Bal
tick and Corn Cracker are good race
horses, and are capable of moving a half
close to fifty seconds.
Palmetto Prince, Victory and RuShmont
will be seen at their best in the free-for-
all pace Palmetto will probably be a
favorite, but ne viii find Victory and
RushmOnt hot company. The old PAGER
and Rushmont are in better condition than
they have been in some time and horse
men expect TO see them step fast mile
to-day.
Moreno. Roanoak, Calico and Little CLAW
win score down in the special harness
race, which VIII be a very interesting
event The card will conclude with an
exhibition half mile between Mr.. James
Furlongs pacing mare Nelly Alfred. and

SIX SLATE oUARRlES
Are Being Operated In the Noun
tains of this County.

R. w. Owens, the slate and roof
man, has just rcturnded from trip to
the Chilhowee Mountains, where he
owns 100 acres of land on which there
is large slate mine being worked.
He says w. S. Hall has opened a
quarry three miles southeast of Green
brier, Blount county, and is working
several men in it. w. D. Hamilton,
GAINESVILLE, Ohio, and Messrs. Hos
kins & Warner, of Chattanooga, are
also operating quarries with good
result. There are five quarries\ being
operated and thirty or forty men are
at work.
The mines are located twenty miles
from Maryville and can be reached
by the Little Tennessee river. The
steamer E. F. Dawson runs within
two miles oil the mines. Mr.. Owns
says Boone's railroad will run through
the veins of slate and in case it is
built the mines will be made the best
in the south. The only drawback
they have now he says is that are al
most inaccessible. Messrs. Hamilton,
Warner and Hoskins own upward Of
20, 900 acres Of land in the mountains
in the slate district
John Parsons, of Ohio, is in the
mountains now with a view of open
ing new mine. He is backed by
moneyed men of Ohio. The quarries
will all be worked extensively next
spring.

POLITICS AT WASHINGTON.
(From a0r RegaIar correspoaaentl

(From our Regular CorrespouaentA
Uncle Sam ought 10 turn Snowman
for few days t. exhibit the most
wonderful lot Of political freaks ever
gathered together. He might station
himself on the east portico The Sen
ate wing Of the Capitol building and
make this little speech: ''Walk right
in, ladies and gentlemen, and see my
wonderful collection OF Senatorial Cd
dities; see Hill, German, and all the
cuckoos, who, since voting against
the free coinage Substitute for the
House bond bill, which passed the
Senate last week to die IN confidence,
have been suddenly transformed INTO
rampant advocates of the free coinage
of silver see the populist Senators
having the wool pulled over their eyes
by the free trade democrats" f" All
this, and more Uncle Sam might
truthfully say, without exaggerating
the situation in the Senate. Every
! democratic Senator as now advocating
the free coinage substitute for the
House tariff bill which Senator Jones,
of Nevada, helped them to report
from the Finance committee. The
gold democrats are not doing this be-
cause they have experienced a.,
financial change ofmlnd, but because
they hope to be able to use the free
coinage club to cudgel the lite out OF
the House tariff bill, a republican
measure, which if it became law
would add $40, 900, 900 year to the
government revenues, and prevent
the issue of any more bonds by the
Cleveland administration.
If disposed, those republican,
Senators who argued against attempt
ing to do anything other than pass the
appropriation bills at this session, be-
cause Of the lack of a republican ma
jority in the Senate, might now say
I-told-you-so to their more impetuous
colleagues. But, instead of wasting
time in that useless manner, they arc
trying to think out way to outwii
the democratic schemers and get the,
tariff through the Senate, just as it
passed the House. They may or
may not succeeded, but it is en-
couraging to know that wheneve- the.
republican and democratic parties
have had a contest depending upon
brain and wit for weapons the re.
publicans have always come out on
top.
General Harrison's letter stating
that he was not and would not be a
candidate before the St. Louis con-
ventlon was no surprise to his friends
in Congress, among whom are two
ex-members of his cabinet-Senators
Proctor, of VT, and Elkins, ofW. Va.
These gentlemen had known Of Gen.
Harrison's determination for a long
time and they had informed most of
the republicans in Congress, SO the
letter created no sensation. In fact,
l have it on good authority, that it
would never have been written ex-
cept for the persistency Of republicans
in various sections in offering their
I servicet to Gen. Harrison, for the
purpose of electing delegates TO the
St. Louis convention who woulc
favor his nomination. There is NOR,
or less gossip in Washington as Il
