who for nearly a decade has suffered ostra-
cism from the American turf, has been re-
instated at LatOnia. The offense which
made Brannon an outcast was the supposed
ringing Of the noted old horse Tanner
under the name of Polk Badget at Latonia,
on which he cleaned UP something like $780,
600.
Brannon trained the horse on the pike
outside Of Latonia, and nobody knew any
thing about him until after the coup had
been made. Polk Badget opened at 40 to l
and was backed down to s to 5. Jockey
Keith had the mount and tried to make a
close finish, but the horse got his head and
finished away out in front. Brannon never
claimed the purse. They cashed the tick
cts and walked the horse to a stable In
this city and that night he was hidden be-
hind some freight in a baggage car. painted
TO prevent recognition by the officials and
shipped direct TO Jersey City. The trail
grew so hot that he had scarcely reached
the stable there when he was taken cut
and shipped 10 Hopkinsville, Tenn.
The horse is dead. also the jockey who
rode him. Judge Perkins said he thought
Brannon had suffered punishment enough
and gave him reinstatement in the nature
OF a pardon.

NO MORE BODIES FOUND.
But Several Are Believed to BE Yet
I'm the Burning Mine.

IN M burning Mine.
BLUEFIELDS, w. Va, Nov. 17.-Up to
this time no other dead bodies have been
recovered from the Pocahontas mine dis
aster. but several may be added to the list.
which now numbers nine. as there are two
or three miners unaccounted for. The mine
is still burning fiercely and for the past
tw~enty-four hours very little has been ac-
complished in the way of searching the
mine for those that are still missing.
1t was suppose. last night that the fire
would have been under control by this time,
but it was found this morning that a large
amount of pipe and hose was yet needed i'm
order to reach the fire. This morning the
wholesale hardware establishments of this
place were called on for all their pipe and
hose available and passenger trains were
held here for the purpose of rushing this
material to the scene Of the disaster. The
mine officials are sparing neither effort nor
expense in caring for the injured, burying
the dead and ~eXtinguishing the flames.
1t is now hoped, with the relief gangs
from other mines, to get the fire under
control by tomorrow afternoon, though
it is hardly probable that it will be
entirely e~Xtinguished for possibly a week,
as 1t is a draft mine and it will be almost
impossible to flood ii.

SCHLEY NOT RUINED.
His Trial Has Not Left the Admiral
PennfIess.

Washington Special to Boston Herald.
Regarding the report that Rear Admiral
Schley had become seriously embarrassed
financially as a result of the heavy per-
sonal expense he was under in making his
defense before the court of inquiry, it has
been generally accepted in the navy that,
If he had to pay the full legal fees which
his counsel might charge for the conduct of
the historic case, he would probably not
be able TO meet them. Although Admiral
Schley has mentioned to but few friends
the financial loss he would suffer in the
endeavor TO clear his record before the
court, it is well known that his expenses
Will not be nearly so heavy as generally re-
ported, and the admiral will not be penni-
less or suffer any severe financial embar-
rassment as a result.
1t is understood that Attorney General
Rayner, his principal counsel after the
death OF Judge j. M. Wilson, will render a
very small bill and will be content with the
prominence he has secured throughout the
country in the conduct of such a case. Mr..
Rayner Is reported to have said that State
pride in Admiral Schley required that some
lawyer from Maryland should give his
services for as little as possible, and he has
frequently he would make no
charge at all to Admiral Schley.
Capt. James Parker, assistant counsel, a
very close personal friend, is also said to
have required only a small retainer and

attended the trial throughout the entire
proceedings was detailed to the duty by
Gen. Felix Agnus. proprietor of the Balti-
more American and a close friend of the
admiral.
From the time, however. the court was
ordered until il adjourned. Admiral Schley's
counsel remained constantly in Washington
and were quartered at one of the best
hotels, their expenses being borne entirely
by the admiral. This bill for nearly three
months was itself considerable.
1t is declared. however, on authority OF
close personal friends of both Admiral
Schley and Mr.. Rayner, that the latter,
who is a very wealthy man, not only
charged no professional fee, but paid all his
own expenses during the investigation.
Financial assistance has been offered the
admiral from various sections OF the coun-
try, and IL is said that a snug sum has
already been raised in Baltimore TO help
defray the expense of the trial. General
Agnus has been the prime mover in secur-
ing this fund.
With the adjournment OF the court Ad-
miral Schley is again placed on the retired
list OF the navy, where his pay is less than
that OF an officer in active service. Admiral
Schley continues to live here and will not
leave until the result of the courts DELHI
e~rations is announced.
He states that he will not return to his
old home at Frederick. Md, nor will he re-
side in Baltimore. and il he does not make

and heard the story with extreme indigna-
ton. She begged him not TO create any
scandal about it, and as the young woman
spected her wishes. 1t was finally agreed
that she should write to the young man,
telling him that she had seen it all, asking
him TO return her jewelry and requesting
never to let her see his face again.
1.-The father took this note to the young
man, who promptly delivered the valuables
he had stolen. The young woman's friends
were told that the engagement was off, and
it was not until very recently. several years
after the incident, that the reason was
known to any ore besides the three per-
sons directly concerned in this tragic oc-
currence of this young lady's life"

of money could be saved the state if the
subsidy granted the academy were struck
out. particularly the sum accorded as in
demntty for the famous dictionary which
the academicians have for years been
slowly preparing. Some fifteen years ago
Ernest Renan declared that at the rate the
ImmOrtals were working il would require
100 years 10 complete the Historical
French Dictionary" The French deputies
have evidently found this period too long,
for the budget commission, in its report,
wants TO know what is being done with the
e4l2 annually allowed the academy for the
dictionary. The sum of e., 400 is all Parlia-
ment allows the academy for its expenses,
but, fortunately, the body Is
rich, and can afford to disdain the re-
prOaches of the body of deputies, whose
members, * claims, make a grammatical
mistake every time one of them speaks in
the tribune.
The quarrel, like that concerning the
Coincide Franchise. is most interesting be-
cause it shows the tendency of modern
France TO invade time-honOred institutions
with reforms. which, while much needed,
mark a new epoch in two world-famous or

One by one the literary men who have

r%enouncing politics as Incompatible with
literature. After the retirement of Maurice
Barres, who has not yet recovered from the
ducking his Socialist opponents adminis-
tered to him, that of Jules Lemaitre, the
high priest OF nationalism, is limited. In
deed, the latter's literary friends are pre-
pairing TO kill the fatted calf to feast the
prodigal son upon his return into their
midst. Before the coming elections, which
will be memorable in France, Lemaitre can
hardly resign; but as soon as they are over
the former popular writer will resume his
literary occupations, in which wise decision
Coppee will probably follow him. Little by
little nationalism is dying out in France,
slowly but surely, and with it ~Anglophobia,

stories and one that never reached the
newspapers" Sossiped a Louisville visitor
the other day, occurred some years ago
in our city. A promising young man had
come to the city. had done well, was of a
respectable country family and had won
the love of one Of the finest young women
in the city.
IAN only child and motherless, she lived
with her father in one of the rambling
mansions in the outskirts of the city. As
is the custom in many Southern places, the
servants lived in a small building in the
rear of the large plot of land surrounding
the house. Late one afternoon the father
told his daughter that she had better ar
range to spend the night with one of her
friends, as he expected TO leave the city
on a business trip and would be gone over
night.
"She told him that she would not be
afraid to stay in the house alone. She eX-
pected to go out TO the theater that even
ing with her hance. When they returned
she would ask him to see that all the win
dOws were securely fastened and she would
feel perfectly secure after he had gone.
Her father somewhat reluctantly agreed
to this and started on his journey. The
girl and her hance went out together as
they had arranged to do. 1t seemed a pc
culiarly happy evening to the young
woman. They returned TO the house in due
time. At her request her fiance examined
all the windows and doors TO see that they
were fastened. She bade him good night
and went UP TO her room, asking him TO
extinguish the front hall light and close
the front door as he left. She saw the light
go out and heard the front door slam.

retire. Just before getting into bed and
