THE MOERLEIN HANDICAP.

The Favorite of the Eastin and Larabie
Stables Takes High Eonors.
One Of the most brilliant races ever
run on the American turf took place in
the Moerlein handicap at Oakley, Ohio,
On Thursday, June IS, in which Ben Hol-
lidav, the magnificent colt OF Eastin and
Larabie, took third money. OF the race
the Cincinnati Enquirer says:
"IIad a rifle shot been fired adown the
wire in the finish in the Moerlein handi-
cap yesterday it would have killed the
three leaders in the greatest race ever run
in the west, if not in America. Buck
Massie, Loki and Ben Holiday poked
their noses past the winning goal in this
stake so close together that one shot
would have finished them all.'
The net value Of the stake was $2,210,
one mile and a quarter, and the time as
follows: Fractional, 0:24 y, 0:49A, 1:14aI,
1:39115, 2:051t.
OF the Eastin and Larabie colt the En-
quirer farther says:
"Ben Holidays race places him away
up in G. in the dope book and he will
not lack for support the next time he
goes to the post. He is a long striding
horse and it is almost painful to watch
him making the turns. Once strai ght-
ened out, however, he comes like the
wind. Had the wire been few more
jumps farther away, yesterday, Gus Eas
tin would have been $4,000 richer today

the owners of Ben Holiday.

.POPULlST CONVENTION.

They Break the Record by Choosing Il
Woman Delegate-Silver Leads.
The populists met in convention at
Boulder on Tuesday, the Esd, and selected
delegates to st. Louis for the national
convention which meets in that city on
July 90. The convention was made men,
orable by the presence of a woman as q
member OF its body and her selection as
delegate to St. Louis. The lady upon
whom the honor fell was Mrs. Ella
Knowles HASKELL Montana's popular
assistant attorney general, who is a de-
voted friend of free silver coinage and
one who has delivered some telling
speeches on the public rostrum Of the
state in its cause. There is no doubt
Mrs. Haskell will be called upon to ad-
dress the convention at St. Louis and that
her words will carry weight throughout
the country.
The convention met at the court house
at II o'clock and organized by calling
Hon. Caldwell Edwards Of Gallatin
county to the chair as temporary presid-
ing officer and Louis Raalkvich Of Cas-
cade as temporary secretary. Commit
tees were appointed and the convention

AN UNFAIR CRITIC.

Editor of the New Northwest:
A writer in the Silver State, under the
name of J. G. Robinson, assumes the
right and authority to speak for Hon.
Charles S. Hartman and the silver dele
gates who left the republican convention
at St. Louis because they could not sub
scribe to the gold plank that the McIHin-

Gus Hanna, chose to insert in the plat
form, contrary to the position assumed
by the party in all previous conventions,
and utterly reversing the doctrines to
which it has been always sacredly COM

though taken into their counsels, this
writer states that the gentlemen alluded

= ZOSEL=NOTES,

There has been unusual activity in
Zosel district this week. The leasers on
the Argus are putting in steam hoist
which was brought down from the Cham
pion district, and the leasers Of the Bo-
nanza have their machinery in running
order and are working on a fine body
of ore.
The Dolphin, a promising property ad.
joining the Bonanza on the east, was this
week bonded to a company composed of
Il. 3. Maxwell, H. A. Smurr, Joe Whit
worth, John Mathison and Conn Linn.
The bond is for $4,000 and runs for 1e
months. John NIathison, with men and
mining outfit went up to the property
yesterday to begin operations.
A bond and lease was taken on the
Emery some two weeks ago by W. A.
Griffith, Henry Evans and Harry Pres
ton, and work is being prosecuted on that
property.
The mine referred to above as the
Emery is not the property held under
lease by the Harrington company and
usually spoken of under that title, but
which should be properly called the
Carbonate.

There was another conference OF uni

colleges at the Mark Hopkins Institute of
Art yesterday forenoon. President Kel-

School. No expression of opinion con
cerning Mayor Sutro's gift Of a block of
land north of the park could be obtained
1t was said that leading men of Oakland
were about to organize for the purpose of
raising money to acquire site in that city
or one near Berkeley. The president of
the university was asked if the regents
and faculty preferred that site in Ala
media County should be selected, but re-
piled that expressions. of opinion on the
subject had not come to his knowledge.
The regents now want 10 dispose of the
question pertaining to tile affiliated col
leges. When that is settled the site for
the Wilmerding School may demand seri-
Gus reflection. Consideration of the two
propositions at the same time may impose
greater tension on the intellectual forces
at the board and faculty than is consistent

A SUPREME COUNCIL.
Delegates Of the Young Mems Institute
Going to Denver to Organize
Central Body


The supreme delegates of the Young
Mems Institute have concluded all ar
rangements for their visit to Denver to at
tend the first Supreme Council of their
order. They will leave San Francisco
Tuesday evening and remain away a week
or ten days.
They are John ]. McDade, ex-Judee J..
F. Sullivan, Frank McGlynn. Frank Muir
asky, Grand President John Lynch of Oak
land Frank Kierce, F. Gallagher OF Fresno
and M. McEntee of Tacoma. Messrs.
Lynch and McEntee are going as alter
mates for J. F. Smith and Ed. 1. Sheehan
of this City.
These prominent members of the insti
tute have been elected to represent the
Pacific jurisdiction at the Supreme Council
and membership of about 5000 scattered
over the Pacific Coast.
At meeting held last Wednesday they
came to an understanding as to general
plan, winch VIII be presented for consider
alton OF the Supreme Council. The order
has grown to such degree that one CEN
tral governing power is needed TO preserve
the principles and objects or the institute
from corruption or change, and it was with
this view before them the Pacific Coast
delegates discussed the subject of a rec
ommendation TO the Supreme Council The
Eastern jurisdiction has a membership of
1000, with councils in several cities.
When the Eastern and Western dele
gates meet they will consider constitu-
ton for the new Supreme Council and the
advisability of establishing other jurisdic-
tions by dividing the two already in ex-
istence into several smaller ones. The
Supreme Council code of laws it is under
stood will be general in their effect with
out interfering materially with the rights
OF district councils.

Stanton promises to be the greatest novelty

giant rooster, and his appearance is so
realistic in his borrowed plumage that
game chickens engage in hot battle with
MIN on the stage. He is care full to put
pads on the spurs of his small opponents
nefore the combat begins, but sometimes
tney become disconnected, and the human
bird gets the worst of the conflict. This
happened once at the Alhambr London,
when spirited Malay rooster was pitted
against him. The Malay feathered war

tween the left eye and the nose, which left

TN O-MORROW evening the great
Paderewski will be with US. AL

for the next nine days we shall
vie with one another in inventing extrava-
gances capable of expressing his golden
glory. "Paddy's" will be name 10 con-

glamour of the pianist's fame and an over

mum-head in all its glory are the real cause
of our buying those costly tickets for the
recital, and absolutely no one Ill this COM
munity will be base and ignorant enou-h
to deny the Polish pianist's marvellous
genius.
How many of US, however, are going to
be capable of really appreciating the fine
distinctions that separate Paderewski's s
playing from that of other great pianists
whom we should not flock to hear if they
came to Us with only a mild amount of
heralding? Let Paderewski play behind
one screen and Rosenthal or d'Albert be-

pie of highly musical temperament could
distinguish sufficiently between the hid

A couple of months ago we had with US
violinist whose Playing was pleasure to
hear. His name was Higgins, and he faded
away without arousing ripple of interest.
What could the man expect? He surely
did not think that the Mob Hill tribes were
going to stir up interest in him by exclaim-
ing enthusiastically at afternoon teas:
''We went to hear Higgins play yesterday;
he was just lovelyP' No one with SO
everyday name as Higgins could posi-
bly, be lovely in a matinee girls sense
The name precludes such possibility If
Higgins had appeared on the programme
as Higginini or Higginski the matinee
girl might have raved over his shaggy
ebon locks, his pale, ethereal face and the
soul in his playing, but mere Higgins
has no right to expect recognition for
playing with soul in the present state of
public feeling.
