A big Republican ratification
meeting was held last night, at the
Miller county court house, under
the auspices Of the white Mckinley
Club. The court house was filed
with enthusiastic Republicans, as
we'll as many Democrats and Popu-
lists. Good music was furnished by
the Texarkana brass band. A large
banner with the picture Of VIM,
Mckinley, bearing the inscription
"Our Next President" hung over
the speakers stand.
At9 o'clock Vice. President Fouke
called the meeting to order and
stated that Mr., B. M, Foreman had
been selected by the club as the
speaker of the evening, and he need
ed no introduction as he was known
by all present.
Mr., Foreman then took the stand
and entertained the large crowd for
an hour and twenty minutes, after
which Mr.. Il, A, Schlcker and 9TH

The President Of The club then
announced that the club would Sc

1t is a great misfortune to this
country that Cleveland made New
York city his home during the four
years between his first and second
terms as President; during that
time he became a millionaire and
freely imblbed the Wall street idea
of finance, which has resulted in
the great disaster of issuing $262,-
900, 900 worth OF interest bearing
bonds since he became President the
second time, During his first term,
either by his instruction or allow
ance, Secretary Of the Treasury
Manning stopped the raids on the
treasury of the gold sharks by pay
ing out silver Cleveland has since
become too wise(O and has COM
PEELED Carlisle to pay out only gold
whenever demanded, although he
knew "coin" meant silver as well as

The Pope,s Garden.

At the last. opposite the iron turnstile by

the closed gate of the garden. 1t is very
hard TO get admission to it now, for the
Pope himself is there almost eyery day
when the weather is fine. In the Italian
manner OF gardening the grounds are we'll
laid out, and produce the effect of being
much larger than they really are. Tney
are not, perhaps, very remarkable, and
Leo XIII must sometimes long for the
hills OF Carpineto and the freer air of the
mountains. as he drives round and round
in the narrow limits of his small domain
or walks little under the shade of the

his architect. Yet those who love italy
love its old-:ashioned gardens, the shady
walks, the deep box-hedges, the stiff little
sum mer-houses the fragments of old stat
ues at the corners, and even the scherzi

water jets that Unexpectedly send shower

MERGED, CAL. Nov. 1s.-The inter-

the greatest excitement. The finish was a
glorious one and the winner turned up in

2 years old and was bred in Kansas and
only recently purchased by Mr.. Shannon.
The runner.up was ]. Lemons st. Cloud.

and will be but 16 months old on the 9th
of November. His performance was a
wonderful one considering all things, as
thirty minutes before he ran a TWO or
three mile course with Carmen. Mr..
Shannon's win was certainly as popular as
any yet seen on the plains. The results of
the closing courses are:
Third ties-Little Wonder beat Moondyne,
Sinaloa beat Dottie Dimple, st. Cloud beat
Right Bower, Carmen ran bye.
Fourth ties-Sinaloa ran bye, Little Won-
der being drawn exhausted after her course
with Moondyne; st. Cloud beat Carmen after a
long course.

BIG CATCH OF FEATHERS,
The Seven McCutcheon Brothers Make
Stake of Over $1,000 on
Egret Plumaee.

G. w. McCutcheon. one of the seven
brothers who have been busy hunting for
the feathers of rare birds which inhabit
Madelaine Bay, Lower California, is in
the City. Mr.. McCutcheon and his broth
ers have beeen hunting there during the
entire season.
They have taken big quantity of the
feathers of the egret heron, elder duck
and other birds. the feathers are of rare
value, and are used to decorate the finest
millinery. Many of them will be sent to
France, London. Berlin and OF her fashion
able centers of Europe. and then. as likely
as not, will come back to this City and
cost enormous figures. This has frequently
been the case in the past.
The egret feathers are worth $50 pound
in San Francisco, and none of the other
feathers are worth less than So or Sc a
pound. Madelaine Bay is a celebrated
place for hunting these birds. The main
land OF Mexico for the last two or three
years has been prolific of these birds, but
so many hunters went in that Sinaloa,
Sonora and similar States that formerly
afforded good hunting-grounds are now
largely depleted of the birds.
Madelaine Bav. however, is a compa ra.
place the birds frequent on their annual
pilgrimages from tn ir native grounds in
the north.
As result skilled hunters, among them
the McCutcheon brothers, have gone there
and have been we'll repaid. This bay is
larger than the bay of San Francisco, and
all admit it is wilderness. Only in one
place. so it is stated, is there any settle
ment, and that consists of but three or
four houses.
The McCutcheon brothers are credited
with getting feathers this year of the value
of over $1,000. Mr.. McCutcheon has been
visiting San Diego. and will now go to
Stockton for a short time. His brothers
are expected here in a few days.
The brothers are experienced and very
skillful hunters. Probably there are none
better on the Pacific Coast, and 1t is a
question if any one besides Hamlin Smith,
the White Chief OF the Cocopahs. also a
feather hunter, is their equal. The Nc
Cutcheon brothers are not inclined to go
into details as to their mode of taking the
feathers. They use guns along shore and
out in the bay and employ native hunters
as 1t may seem advantageous.

Dashes of Color Not Usually Seen in
the Metropolis.
The early pedestrian through some of
the uptown streets frequently catches an
odd bit of color that is not visible during
the rest of the day. The Italian and
French table d'hote managers are at work
soon after sunrise, and their employees are
busily engaged at cleaning up the estab-
lishments before it is time to cook break
fast for guests, says the New York Mail
and Express.
In many OF these places the cooks and
downstairs helpers are friends or relatives
brought over from the old home by the
successful proprietors. They cling to
their old habits and dress for a long time.
People who passed one of the large upper
Sixth avenue table d'hote restaurants
early the other morning saw three young
! men sweeping out or cleaning windows,
and the dress OF each one was what would
be seen on all workmen of similar class
| in lower Italian town. One wore bril-

another had on a tight-htting pairof cot
