HOOPER BUILDING SUIT.
Old Case Reaches Trial In the Dis
trict Court.

The ten-year-old suit of G. F. Cul-
mer Va. Annie Hooper Game eft al. was
revived in Judge Hiles' court yesterday
when the matter came up for trial
on the cross-complaint of Duval &
Mills, co-defendants. The suit arose
out Of the erection of the Hooper build
ing on First South street. Numerous
disputes arose among the contractors
and sub-contractors. Duvall & Mills
were stone contractors, and they claim
a mechanics lien on the building for
S2,S12.31 as the balance due for their
work. The defense is that the action
is barred by the statute of limitations
and that they are further barred by
inequitable conduct. The case was re-
served for argument until June 5.
Judge Street represented Duvall &c
Mills, and Senator Rawlins the defend

HORSES AND RACES.

Tom Mccoy and Ezra Thompson the
promoters of the Decoration day races,
have decided that they have ample JUS
LITIGATION for continuing the good work
just begun. The immense crowd which
was in attendance at the Callers park
course gave ample demonstration that
there is an awakening among the peo-
pie to the delights of horse racing, and
this practical encoura cement has con-
WINGED the promoters that a couple of
meets during each month of the season
will not be too often to satisfy the pub
lie desire for the sport.
The races of Decoration day did not
develop any wonderful show of speed
but the track had been made so heavy
by the rain of the night before that this
created no surprise. The next meet
will doubtless show faster work.
On June 16 or II the next meet will
be held, and preparations are already
being made by the racing men.

Another most excellent feature was
Professor Lockhart's herds of trained

beasts do everything but talk. Their
tractability was marvellous. They
walked on their hind legs, danced, sat

when musical instruments were given
them. nobody would have been sur
