WORKING FOR SOUND MONEY.
Emissary of Cleveland Feeling the
Pulse Of Illinois Democrats.

Pulse of Illinois Democrats
Chicago, March GA morning paper
says: President Cleveland has had a
special emissary in Chicago for the past
week investigating the true feeling on the
currency question. Calvin Tompkins.
secretary OF the sound currency committee
of the Reform Club o. New York, was the
agent. Yesterday he left Chica go, and
then the local Democrats began to wonder
why his mission had been kept so secret.
and his investigation had been made SO
thorough.
For several days Mr.. Tomkins has been
calling on the Democratic leaders. He
told them frankly he had come as the ac-
credited agent OF the President, and that
ne was after confidential information re-
garCling the real standing OF sound money in
Illinois.
Mr.. Tomkins was accompanied by Mr..
Hentz, and rule they made calls upon
the Democratic politicians together. Mr..
Tomkins, however, dill most OF the talking.
Long interviews We're had with many prom
inent Democrats Of Chicago.
Mr.. Tomkins told the Chicago men that
President Cleveland, in common with the
leading Democrats of the East, was con-
vinced that Illinois would be the pivotal
State over the money question, which is
looked for in the coming Democratic Ma
tional Convention. He told them that he
mad been told by Col. William Il. Morrison
that Chicago held the key OF this Sta.,.
and as Chicago went on the money question
so Illinois would go.
While Mr.. Tomkins did not ask the
Democrats to work for a declaration for
4 gold standard. he urged that the Illinois
State convent ion declare Il against the
coinage OF silver at ratio of Is to l.
Before he left the city Mr. Tomkins is
reported TO have said that he was satisfied
hat the sound money men were in the
majority in the party, if they only would
make an aggressive fight at the polls.

JOHN AND PADDY.
The Great Ex's viii Appear with "The
Wicklow Postum" Monday.

Eugene O'Rourke, 1.-THE Wicklow
Postman," will open at Maguire's
next Monday evening. The Wicklow
Postman," an Irish melo- drama, which
the actor and author Mark Price has
written for Mr.. O'Rourke, is a light If
not a radical departure from the con-
ventional Irish play; it ignores English
soldiers and Irish rags. The famous
blackthorn does not hold at bay a
posse of police nor does II demolish an
English regiment. That blot upon the
Irish race, the ever ready informer. is
conspicuous by his absence. He has
done yeoman service in the past, but
he can be spared from the pages of an
Irish story of to-day. Irish dramatists
have ignored an active element in Ire
land, namely, the Scotch-Irish. Mr.
Price realizing their Importance and
power. brings them forcibly to the front
in direct conflict with the native Irish.
Industry and cunning are at war with
wit and reckless generosity-the closed
fist against the open hand With such
a theme, character sketching becomes
a necessity and various types are pre-
scented.

trihe nervous as he noticed what ap-
peared to be a concerted assault on his
throne. But they tarried not. McCor-
mick suddenly remembered something
he had forgotten in the paddock and
away he went. To the closest observer
Jimmy's consciousness of the presence
of any one was not patent. but as he
went through the paddock gate and
looked back to see his followers staring
at him blankly. there was little twin

contested over the ST. Louis fair
crack colts and fillies of last year are
being prepared for the tempting event.
1t Is called the National Derby, says
the St Louis Sporting News. and was
intended to be the successor of the
American Derby, which gave such fame
to Washington Park. The race has
created the utmost interest all over
the country and horsemen everywhere
are now deep in the work Of getting
their charges in shape. for this great
prize is worth striving for. The owner
of the winner is guaranteed $1,000. The
owner of the second horse will receive
as his share 81. 500; third horse, 81 500,
and fourth horse, $1,000. These prizes
are guaranteed in cash.
The race is well named. These eligi-
bles are owned from one end of the
continent to the other, and the owners
of the leading candidates represent the
extreme East and extreme West of the
United States. These notables are Ben
Brush, owned by NJ. f. Dwyer, New

The Anaconda and Butte meetings
will be under the personal supervision
of T.. A. Upton, which will insure
square racing and good management.
The races will be good, the purses all
right and the attendance likewise. Well
known strings of horses are coming
from California and all over the coun-
try and the Montana horses having the
advantage of lung power, strength and
endurance, peculiar to this altitude,
will give their competitors from other
localities hard chase for the honors.
A New York dispatch says: Fred
Taral, the famous Jockey who Is to
ride for Marcus DAILY this season,
misses no opportunity of paying a
tribute to that fast California colt, Rev
del Carreres, who is a member of Rich
ard Croker's string in England. He
says: That's the fastest horse I ever
put leg over. He's faster than DOM
mo. L never saw a horse that could
live with him at three-quarters of a
mile. He would go so easily that | did
not know what to think when people
would show me their watches after the
race. Why, Rey del Carreres once car
ried me quarter in 21A seconds and
I'll wager-here's a case where would
bet-that he could run an eighth with
any weight up in 10 seconds.
How will Rey del Carreres run in
England?"
WELL" answered Taral with flash
ing eyes. IT only wish 1 had a chance
to ride Americas, as they call Rev del
Carreres in England. If Mr. Croker
can get boy who can ride Americas
he should do we'll
