THE SIXTH HANDICAP.


on May is. 1892, another enormous
crowd took the special trains for Graves
end to see the sixth running of the
Brooklyn handicap. 1t was clear weather
and the track was in good shape, though
not fast. A high-class field of II horses
contended for the prize. comprising the
following viz:

Banquet. ITO; George W. 100; Kingmaker,
~. Fairview, 1902: Maidstone los: Portches-
ter, ll2; Longstreet, 12S.
To good start Fairview rushed to the
front and led the field a merry clip for
nearly mile and then blew up. Russell
was second and Longstreet was third at
the half, with Banquet, Pessara, Claren-
don and Judge Morrow next in order. At
the mile Russell and Morrow were first
and second, half a length apart, Pessara
a length behind Morrow, with Clarendon,
banquet and Longstreet following. They
came into the stretch without change.

Showery weather and a good track al
the opening of the racing season OF 1881.
An enormous crowd went to the Grave
send track to see the fifth running of the
Brooklyn handicap. There were 2l start
ers, as follows, viz:
Tenny. 12S; Prince Royal. III; Tea Tray.

The largest number OF starters in its
history distinguished the fifth handicap,
a wonderfully well-balanced field and the
top weight the winner.

well punched. At the turn into the back

Time, 2:l0.
Tenny ran a great race. always holding
his field safe and winning without touch
OF whip or spur. He was a prime favorite,
going TO the post at to l. and practically
carrying every dollar of the public money.
The unusual generosity of the bookms-
kers laying from to TO 2 to 1 against
the favorite gave the public bettors the
opportunity they wanted, and instead of
scattering their bets looking for horses to
play for second and third places, they
stuck TO Tenny and cashed their tickets.
Colonel Pulslfer won a fortune. Tenny
was the only favorlte that ever won the
Brooklyn handicap. and in this way the
iberality of the bookmakers may be ac-
counted for. They had sad experience.
1t is noteworthy that Tea Tray and Ban

consider the question Of calling another
notional Democratic convention After
thi. matter is settled. and the character
of the call is agreed upon, then Will
ONE up the usual matters as to when
and whore the national convention
shall be held. There are questions OF

of time and place, and h meeting
will be participated III by o than
the usual committeeman of one from
each state While over twO-thirds of
the states have representatives here as
members If the provisional national
committee, there are more advisory
visitors than committeeman. The oc-
casion is more i'll the nature of a general
conference of the gold standard Demo-
Gratis than that of a committee meeting.
The temporary organization will be
succeeded by a permanent organization,
which will continue until a national
convention is held and the customary
party machinery is made up in that
way. The executive committee will
make Il report of all that has been done

HILE NOT TALKING.

Chairman jones Denies That the New
York Senator Has Declared Himself.
WASHINGTON, Aug. S.-Chairman
Jones was back at Democratic head
quarters during the day. He said con-
corning his visit to Senator Hill that
there was no authority for statements
that Mr.. Hill had declared himself to
him (Jones) on the political situation.
On the contrary, Mr.. Jones says Gov
ernor Hill is a man who keeps his own
counsels, and like others in New York
is probably awaiting the action of the
state convention in September. When
asked az to the remark attributed to
him that ''Hill is all right Mr.. Jones
said he had stated from time to time
that he had no doubt Gouernor Hill
would be all right, but there was no
reason for giving any significance to
this opinions in connection with the
meeting in New York.

Women get plenty of sympathy after they
are dead. Tom Hood made a very pathetic
picture in his Bridge of Signs" but the
probabilities are that the woman needed
sympathy a great deal more before she died
than she did afterwards. Thousands of wo-
men are enduring much worse things thu n
death. The most distressing thing about it
all is that it is needless.
Uterine troubles are considered we'll nigh
incurable. Women seem to think that they
must go on bearing these things forever. To
be sure, some OF them make an effort to get
we'll by going to their physicians, but thou
sands are deferred from this, both because
they have seen that it was not likely to do
much good, and because they knew that the
first thing the physician Would insist upon
would be the examinations and local treat
ment SO justly abhorrent to every modest
woman. These things are generally as un-
necessary rs they are distasteful. Every
woman can be made strong and healthy by
the use of DR.. Pierce's Favorite Prescrip-
ton. It is a most marvellous medicine for
all forms of female weakness and disease.
1t is a wonderful purifier and cleanser. 1t
acts directly on one set of organs, and on no
other, but in doing this, it frequently cures

trouble Is In the organs distinctly feminine.

litical tenets.
.. We recognize in William McKin-

Garret A. Hobart, the nominee for vice
president, two typical Americans, tried
in the public service and found able and
true, pure in their lives, untarnished in
their honor and close to the people in

We pledge to them u most hearty and
