To Seek Treasure in Spring.

Another effort is to be made to re-
cover the treasure which, according to
tradition, lies at the bottom OF q deep
spring in Edwards county, Texas. This
tradition says that the treasure
amounts to from $4,000 to $lOO,O 900 in
gold coin, and that it was thrown into
the spring by wagon train guards, in
the early part of this century, to pre-
vent it falling into the hands of band
of brigands who made an attack on the
wagon train camp and killed all but
one man in the party.
Several attempts have been made to
reach the bottom of the spring with
graphing hooks, but without success.
Several months ago party of three
left here determined to get the treas
IRE. The wire ropes which they used
snapped before they had gone down a
great depth into the water and the
treasure hunters gave up. Jas. Rend-
art and Jesus Capro, will leave with an
outfit of several hundred yards of the
strongest wire rope, heavy graphing
hooks, windlass and weights, and will
try to reach the bottom of the spring
and bring up the money.

Race Notes.

a POUCH keepsie, y. Y, dispatch
says: The position of Cornell on college
boat rowing was made known to-day as
follows:
Firss-Cornell will, as victors, receive
almost any proposition from Y ale and
Harvard that those colleges wish to
make, but will not present proposition
as to future engagements.
Second-NO proposition will be &C
cepted by Cornell that compels her to
join in an exclusive class with Yale and
Harvard BIT the sacrifice of her friendly
relations with Columb ia and Pennsyl-
vania.
Third-Cornell, Columbia ard Penn
sylvania will comb ine for races proba-
bly, on this course and will invite the
University of Wisconsin to come in.
Yale and Harvard may also enter If
their exclusive dual agreement is not q
handicap.
Fourth-Cornell may try to arrange
to race again in England with purely
American methods and as the repre-
sen tatives of American college rowing.
There are rumors of changes in the
coaches of the university next year.
1t is said that Mr.. Cook, Yale's coach,
is to retire and that Will Beard, of
Popghkeepsie, who rOwed in the Yale
Henley crews, is delegated to take his
place. Courtney will remain with Cor
nell, of course, and Harvard will have
another try at English methods by hav-
ing MIR. Lehman come over again next
spring.
1t is expected tonight that DR.. Wal
ter Peel, who coached Columbia in
their successful year, will again take
hold of the colleges C; CIV. He is to be
the physical dirs ctor of the univers-
ity and will add the position of coach
to it.
Ellis Ward will remain with Penn
sylvania and says he sees very good
material in this years freshmen class
for big varsity crew next year.
In the university yard at Cam brid ge,
Harvard men were discussing the var
iOus points of interest in connection
with the POug hkeepsie race. They
were enthusiastic over Mr.. Lehman,
and asserted that there was no doubt
whatever of his return in the fall to
resume work at training the crew of
1898. Indeed, it is understood in the
college that Capt. Goodrich and
Messrs. Boardman, Sprague and J. H.
Perkins of the crew of 1867 are to cross
with him and they may have some op-
portunity TO study the English method
of conducting races.

RACING ENDS In SCADAL.
Scimitar Died and Morgan q. Will be
of no Value Hereafter.

Racing in Mexico has terminated in
q sensational and scandalous manner
George Van Gordon, who owns breed
ing establishment close to Mexico :
capital and who was prominently iden-
titled with the turf in this state for q
number of years, is in the city and
gives the details of the reprehens BILE
practices that characterized the game
and which reached its climax in the
attempted wholesale poisoning
of the best thoroughbreds on the
track.
The visiting tu~fman claims that dis
honest racing was an ordinary occur
renee, but for downright sharp prac-
tice a horSeman named Skaggs easily
carried off the palm. Skaggs came to
Colonel Pate's track from the Indian
territory with d mare called Lulu Pry.
She was fair sprinter, but did not
class with the California horses there.
Despite the added weight that was
allotted to her by the handicapped, she
continued annexing the purses when
ever her owner SO elected, and this
gave rise to the suspicion that there
was Juggling with the weights. The
| Jockey was watched, and upon return
| ing to the scalerOOm his valet was OBJ
| served to slip lead pad to him. No
| judicial action was taken in the matter,
except to warn the boy of the cOnse
quence of a repetition. The next time
that the mare carried heavy handi-
cap she again won, much to the sur
prise of every body, and with still more
weight added a couple of more victor
les to her score.
The other hOrsemen were so conf
dent that something was wrong that
they undertook an investig alton on
their own account and discovered that
the pilot of Lulu Pry wore cap in

which was quickly picked up by his
valet, who handed it to him when be
dismounted, and he was thereby able
to make weight
After the expose the California; bred
horses commenced to win nearly all the
purses, Morgan g., the ex-hurdler,
easily being the best horse on the flat.
He was suddenly taken sick and so was
Scimitar, and upon the death of the
latter the government took hand in
the matter and found that the carrots
which had been fed to the horses con-
tanned sufficient arsenic to kill all the |
animals on the track. The inside Of the |
vegetable had been scooped out and
enough facts to warrant them arrest |
ing the owner of Lulu Pry, and he now |
lies in Mexican prison. When Mr.. |
Van Gordon left for Mexico three |
months ago he took with him Articus,
Del Mar and three-yearold colt by |
King Thomas Evalita. He sold the |
son of Argyle to a'Mexican turfman
and has placed Del Mar at the head of |
his breeding establishment. The hor-
ses Morgan G., Seapoy and Brametta |
were taken there by other turfmen and |
the last two have been disposed of to a
Mexican who intends to engage in the |
breeding industry. Brametta failed to
win race at the meeting. Van Cor
don says that the natives are ardent
lovers of the sport, but that the crook
edness became so notorious that they
became disguised. He says that the |
sport is now deah there unless it can
be revived under different manage
ment.

Jurisdiction of Recorders.

The frequency with which the su.
preme court reverses the decisions OF
the intermediate courts, after these
have reviewed the verdicts of trial
courts, is apt to raise a question in the
minds of some people as to their
which state statutes. and corporation
| charters are rendered ineffective must
be discouraging torlaw makers.
| A year ago the court OF criminal ap-
peals, in case sent up from Carrant
county, held that a city recorder could
not entertain jurisdiction of state cases
and that therefore fine imposed by a
city recorder for an offence against q
state law was void. One day last week
the supreme court, in answering GER
| titled questions from the court of civil
appeals in a case from Harris county,
! held that the city recorder may act in q
dual capacity and have jurisdiction of
state cases as an eX-OtficiO justice o
the pc ace.
Some months ago a case was taken
up from Galveston wherein the juris-
cases was brought into question and
the ruling of the appellate court
created something of a sensation, in
asmuch as it threw the whole legal
machinery of the city into chaos
The decision of the court of last re-
sort in this case was that the legis-
lature had no power to create justices
of the peace, the constitution provid
ing that they shall be elected by the
people. 1t was, therefore, assumed
that the provision OF the city charter
which conferred upon the city record
err the powers of a justice of the peace
in the trial of criminal Otfenses under
the state law was unconstitutional and
void. AS a result of this decision the
recorder confined his jurisdiction to
offenses against the city ordinances and
state cases were thereafter transferred
to the Justices courts. Then arose
the question as to whether the chief
of police and his subOrdinates had any
power to issue warrants for or to ar
rest offenders against the statutes of
the state without the authority of q
state court or official of the state and |
for time there was much confusion,
the scope of the decision and its appli-
cation to the duties of the city's peace |
officers not being fully understood.
These decisions are apparently in |
direct conflict with each other and |
seem to leave the question of city re-
corder's Jurisdiction in as much dou bt |
as ever, unless it be assumed that the |
last decision annuls all others, and |
even then the matter is not quite clear
to the understanding of a layman.-|
