Nine Eligibles in High Condition
to Face the Flag.
B S THE FAVORITE
But Preliminary Work of Ken
lucky Farmer Better.
Reels Off the Mile and a Quar-.
ter in Fast Time.

Louisville, May 3.-Nine horses in the
pink of condition are slated to face the
flag his afternoon on historic Churchill
Downs for the twenty-sixth Kentucky
Derby. The starters will be as follows:
Lieutenant Gibson, Kentucky Farmer,
His E~xcellency, Florizar, Highland Lad
Flaunt, Dieudonne, Hindus, Thrive. In
addition to these there nay be others.
r. j.. Hines may start Benadier, for re-
ports say that the colt has been worked
under and that Hines has a trump
card up his sleeve. If Flaunt, from the
Lewman stable, is able to get out and
set the pace, which in all probability he
will do, the Derby Will be one of the
fastest ever run over the Louisville
track.
The preliminary trials have caused
some anxiety to the owners of the fav-
orfte, Lieutenant Gibson.
John Rodegan Tuesday sent his colt,
Kentucky Farmer, the Derby distance
in POS, which was something almost
phenomenal, considering the weight he
carried. The ease with which Kentucky
Farmer turned the trick, together with
the weight he had up, vas Via sur
prised them. The first quarter was made
in 0:25, the three-eighths in 0:371R, the
half in 0:5019, the hve-eighths in 1:037@,
the three-quarters in 1:16A, the mile in
1:42H, and the mile and one-quarter in
2:O8.
McDowell's starter, His Excellency,
worked a mile and a quarter in POS 2-5.
Scoggan's pair, Florizar and Highland
Lad, were sent the route in 2:09 3-5.
Highland Lad had weight up, while
F1orizar had only a light hoy on his
back, still Highland Lad worked the
distance with more ease than did his
stable companion. Thrive, the entry
of J. G. Calm, did the distance in 2:09.
This mad five workouts of Derby can
didates, all in the most extraordinary
time, n within a. second n a frao-
ton of each other. The result will
doubtless be that h Derby of 1900 will
be one of the most exciting eve wit
messed. 1t will probably be a race from
end to end, and will recall to mind the
racing days of long ago. 1t will be a
race worth travelling hundreds of miles
to see.
Trainer Hughes had Lieutenant Glib
son on edge two weeks ago and has been
trying to keep him there. There is real
~ no definite idea extant as to how fast
or low far he can 90, as Hughes has
been working him alone, bursting him
off at odd spots and sending him no
regular distance. He is credited with
have to beat in the Derby. but how he
will act the first time out is a mere
guess, and Hughes has an Reuse pre-
pared for him in the event of his being
beaten.
Lieutenant Gibson will be an even
money or odds on favorite when they
go to the post today, with Kentucky
Farmer second, and The Scoggan mare
Florizar n Highland Lad, and His
Excellency third in the pubIic's favor
The track is in the best of condition.

Salina Boy Who Suddenly Dis
appears From Home
About Two Years.Ago Has Been
Heard From.
IN THE PHILIPPINES.
Went to New York and Worked
His Way to England.
Returned and Fought Through
the Cuban War.
Did Duty in Porto Rico, Then
Sent to LuzOn.
IN THE PHILIPPINES.

Salina, May 3-Harry Holstein, son
Of Mrs. D. K. Grant, who mysteriously
disappeared from Salina two years ago
has been heard from at last.
Mrs. D. K. Grant received a letter
yesterday from her son who is now a
soldier in the Philippines. The letter
was directed to Salina as the young man
was not aware that his mother had left
here. It stated that his conscience told
him to write and he a resolved to do
so.
The young mans disappearance will
be remembered by many Salina people.
All sorts of rumors were abroad. Many
thought he had met with fou play.
Harry Holstein states that he went
direct from Salina to New York, where
he secured a job on a steamship bound
for Liverpool. After a stay of several
months in England he again sailed for
New York, employed as a stoker.
On arriving in New York he became
imbued with the var fever and enlisted
in the first regiment to land on Cuban
soil. He passed through the Cuban
campaign and the Battle of San Juan
Hill. After serving in the Cuban cam
paign he was transferred to Porto Rico
where he did service for several months.
From Porto Rico he was sent to the
Philippines.
Mrs. Grant, who is now living at
Lyons, Immediately telephOned to
friends in Salina of the news of her son.

along, with little prospect for a speedy
elimination. From the way Manager Te-
beau talked while in Chicago this week
he is very hopeful of having "Muggsy"
in the game ere the Pittsburg series is
concluded, but President Robisonss mes
sage proves that the two players are no

ago when their release was purchased.
Late last night the following dispatch
was received from Philadelphia:
President Reach, of the Philadelphia
see Abel and Ebbetts, the Brooklyn mag
mates. 1t is believed the trip was aiken
to make some sort of a dicker that will
land McGraw at third base for the Phila-
delphias."
1t has long been reported that some of
the eastern magnates were behind Me-
GraW in his refusal to come to st. Louis
and have encouraged him to hold out,
with the hope of ultimately getting him.
such scheme win succeed, as he will not
release or sell McGraw on any terms.

Killed in an Accident.

From the W1nfeIQ COURIER
Grace, h 4 year old daughter of Mr..
and Mrs. Geo. Savage living on the Lynn
farm north of town, met with an un-
usual accident yesterday receiving ter
rible injuries which ma prove fatal.
She was dragged by a COW al the end of
a short rope which held her under the
cows feet and only her rare presence
Of mind saved her from instant death.
The COW was a quiet animal raised as
a pet and the little girl was in the hab-
it of playing with her. Yesterday morn
ing the boys went out to take the COWS
to pasture and the little girl ran around
the barn to unite the cow. The family
was Mortified a few moments later to
see the COW running toward h pasture
with the child hanging by one foot at
the end of the short rope in such a po-
sition hat every step the COW took her
hind feet struck the tender body dang
ling beneath, tearing the flesh and ter
ribly mangling the body every step. The
COW stopped at the first bunch of grass
for a moment but long enough for the
child with almost superhuman strength
and presence of mind to disengage her
foot and then she tainted.

The police commissioners at their meet

Chicago Boxer on Hand For His Fight
With Oscar Gardner.

Louisville, May 3.-Eddie Santry and
a retinue of trainers and advisers have
arrived here, where tonight he is to
meet Oscar Gardner, of Wheeling, W.
Va, in a twenty-round fight.
Accompanying Santry are Emil Thirty,
who has trained him for his recent
fights; Sam Pooler, his manager, and
Art Simms, the Akron fighter, who is
acting as Santry's sparring pardner-
Santry is in excellent condition for his
fight. He weighed yesterday morning
exactly 121 pounds, the lowest he has
been since he fought McGovern at Tat
t~ersalIs. AS the weight limit in Louis
vile is 124 pounds Santry has plenty of
leeway and expects to take on a couple
of pounds before entering the ring. He
expressed the greatest confidence be
fore leaving in his ability to dispose
of Gardner before the limit is reached.
Il can hit harder and oftener than he
cam is the way Santry has it figured
out. Besides that, my cleverness will
carry me out of the way Of his rushes."
