SENATOR TILLMAN PUTS HIS
PITCHFORK INTO THE HOUSE
OF REPRESENTATIVE

WASHINGTON. Feb. "A sensation
al speech was made by Senator Tillman
this morning at the opening of the ses-
sion. The senate bill granting fifty
dollars a month pension to an Indiana
volunteer was put on its passage.
Tillman arose and made some lively
comments upon the house not taking
action on a bill of his, granting a
small pension to a veteran of the Mex
lean war who had resided in South
Carolina during the civil war and nat
urally was on the side of the confed-
eracy.
The bill had pjassed the senate but
was held up in the house, Tillman said
on account of sectional animosity. The
house committee would do nothing for
an old soldier whose sympathies hap
pened to be on the southern side, said
he.
is the war over or is it not?" ex-
citedly demanded Mr.. Tillman, adding
with dramatic vehemence, Let us find
out whether it is or not, and l swear
to you, senators, by the almighty God,
that will not let another pension bill
pass this senate until this old man
gets Justice"
the incident closed.

Twelve Year Old Charge.

Sheriff Hume, of Erath county, Tex
as, passed through the city with Frank
Hyatt, wanted to answer the charge
of having killed his father-in-law
twelve years ago.
Hyatt or EadS was captured at Sac
remento, California, where he had
been working in the railway shops for
years.
The man left willingly for the Texas
town. where he is to be tried. says the
Bee, saying that he had no fear as to
the result of his trial.
Chief of Police Sullivan said
that Hyatt had become so popular with
his fellow employees that several hun
dreds of them called to see him while
he was in the prison. Two Hundred
and fifty of them signed an address
to the district attorney of Erath
county. in which they set forth that
during his residence in this city. The
shop men have also agreed to aid

To set within thy robe Of pain

INDIAN CEMETERY FOUND.

It is Very Old and is in Pine Rocl Park.
 | While the work of grading was under way in the southern section of Pint Rock park last week the men dong i | discovered an Indian burial ground | It is a matter of tradition in the sur rounding country that some plate
 about the site of the park was used by
 the aborigines for the interment of theil ! dead, but none of the living genera | tions eyer saw the spot. The men al | work grading made the discovery by uncCvering row of flat stones laid with unusual regularity. Suspecting
 that it was burying ground, the men notified their foreman, who ordered work suspended. General Manager Sewell of the Connecticut Railway and Lighting company, when notified, gave orders not to have the place molested. He will make personal examination, and, if conditions are favorable, will have the historic burial place of Oro- noque Indians restored. By doing this he will preserve tradition, and add q most interesting feature to the divers attractions of the pleasure resort.
 The work of clearing up at the park is practically completed over consid- erable amount of territory and hum dreds of seats have already been placed in position. The ice cream pavilion is complete, and the fountain is in place between the band stand and the danc ing pavilion, but the latter is not yet completed requiring several days work to finish it.
 The band stand is pretty piece of rustic work
 The waiting room at the roadside is also finished. The work of stringing wires for the electric lights, which are to light the park at night, is being pushed forward rapidly The base ball ground at the foot of the mountain has been staked out.
 The aviary has a large number of pi- geons in it and other birds are daily expected. The peacock struts around as lordly as if he knew the attention he attracted
 Just now the landscape gardener is praying for rain to wet down the park and wash off some of the dust caused by the work being done there.
 Swings have been placed all over the park. They are not of the old-fash- toned type, but are the modern swing, requiring no outside pushing and being arranged so that one, two or more can swing in them at the same time.
 Ample dressing and toilet rooms have been constructed for both men and wo- men, containing every convenience for the toilet. Bridgeport Standard.

for him as yearling. You never cal
 tell just how fast well-bred horse may go"
 J. c. Smith, of Richmond, Va, has
 the giant trotter Mosul, 2:09. IA, en
 tered in the 2:10 trot at the Brighton Beach meeting. This horse was placed
 in the stud when Q two- year-old, was | gelded at three and worked for speed
 but did not show any. At four years | he was sold to w. M. Parrish for bus mess horse, driven to buggy, then tc carriage and finally sent to Trainer Bergen, who discovered that he ha6 speed. All this was in the spring oi 1896. In August of that year he start ed in his first race, winning one heat and record of 2:31 IA. After that he improved steadily, winning several races and closing the season with a mark of 2;29 IA. In 1897 he was a sen sation graduating from the minor half-mile tracks. to Grand circuit com pany and winning that noted race over Oakland Baron at Columbus, O. Since then the big son of Sultan has been in retirement. Parrish paid one hundred and seventy-five dollars for him and received fifteen hundred dollars a few months later. It is said that he shows indications this year of being able to make the 2:10 horses stretch their necks.
 The fastest of the two-year- -old trot- ters now in training are doubtless two colts, both entered in the Kentucky fu- turity, one Todd, by Bingen, 2:06 IA, in training at Readyille, Mass, and the other Harrington, by Gaudaur, is in training at Cleveland. Both these colts have been stepping fast in their work, and considerable rivalry has been stirred up between their owners Not long ago Harrington trotted a mile in 2.26, and half in 1:10, whereupon the Cleaveland horsemen expressed the opinion that there was no -year-old in the country that stood any show whatever of beating him this year. This did not suit the ideas of George w. Leavitt, the Boston man, who owns Todd, and he at once authorized the sporting editor of Boston paper to announce that he would bet thousand dollars that Todd would beat the Cleve- land colt in the first race in which the two meet this season. That Leavitt was not guessing about the speed of his colt was made evident one after noon at Readville last week, when he had his trainer ames Carpenter, drive Todd a mile in 2:2i 1-4, last half in 1909 IA, and last quarter in B 1-2 sec- onds. This performance on the part of the Boston colt makes him look like the best tWo-year- trotter in sight, in fact, he is the only one that looks to have chance of approaching the great performance of Arion, the sire of his dam, when he placed the worlds rec ord for -year-old trotters at
