THE TURF

SAN FRANCISCO. Feb. 1S.-It was
a bad day for favorites today, the first
two races being the only ones to fall
to their lot.
In the handicap ''Pittsburg Pills
mare Derfargilla was an even money
favorite and at that price was backed
heavily by the plunger. She was dis
gracefully beaten, however, finishing
a poor fourth.
In the last race l.. Ezell's sprinter
Babe Murphy was also an even money
favorite but had to be contented with
third place.
The mile and a sixteenth handicap
went to Yankee Doodle, who won cleY-
erly from the Iron Horse" Logan who
was favorite.
1t has developed that the injuries re-
ceived by Naglee Burke's crack colt
Crescendo are not as serious as at first
supposed. Burke has given it out that
the horse will be in his usual good form
in a couple of weeks and that the in
5uries received will in no way interfere
with his eastern engagements.

For some of his little, rare seven
teenth century volumes Lord de Tab
ley had an almost petulant affection.
He has celebrated in beautiful verse
his copy Of Sucklin's ''Fragments
Aurea" and, perhaps, I may be allowed
to tell one more bfbliomdniac story. On
a certain occasion, when I was at his
house. Robert Browning and Frederick
Locker. being the other guests, Warren
had put on the table his latest prize, a
COPY Of Sir William DaYenant's Mad
agascar" Of 1888 Browning presently
got hold of the little book and began
reading passages aloud, making fun Of
the poetry (Which, indeed, is pretty
bad with, Listen now to this" and
Here's a fine conceit-" Warren bore
it for a little while, and then he very
gently took the volume out of Brown
ing's hands and hid it away. "Ohi"
he explained to me afterward, 'I
could not allow him to patroniZe Dav-
enant." A particular favorfte with him
was Quarles, as combining the meta
physical poet with the emblematist.
He had a curious theory that the in
f1uence, not only of Quarles. but OF
Alciati, could be traced in the designs
OF Blake, another special object Of his
study. Before I leave this subject 1
am tempted to quote a passage from

INDIANAPOLIS. Feb. ia special to
the Sentinel from Muncie, Ind, says: A
letter received in this city discloses a
plot to lynch Scott Jackson, Alonzo Wal

brothers. 1t says that at least 1000 men
will take part in the killing. There now
live in Muncie three families who former
~ resided in the moonshine district of
Kentucky and western West Virginia.
They were members of the moonshiners'
organization which it is said has over
5000 members. This morning one of these
men received a letter instructing the three
to come to Kentucky to take part in the
lynching. The letter stated that the mob
would be furnished with Winchester
rifles; also that a paper had been secretly
circulated in Newport, KY, and that
1,500 men had signed it signifying their
Willingness to join the moonshiners. It
was further said that unless the murder
ers were taken to Kentucky a mob of
1000 would bear down on the Cincinnati
Jail armed with Winchesters and lynch
the men. The Gasker brothers are sun
posed to have rowed Pearl Bryan down
the Ohio on the night of the murder.
