arrive quite early and by ~ o'clock the
streets began to take on a holiday ap-

one change; and there is not coach this
morning who is making any special COM

good condition. Towards O'Clock a
slight, refreshing breeze began blowing
titfully from the southwest, but it can blow
quite hard from that direction and not
disturb the west course. The races will
be as follows:

';JUST LIKE A WOMAN"
Wanted Money Back She Had Lost in
Wall Street.


From the Philadelphia Inquirer
New York, May 12-WalI street was
nearly deserted at II o'clock to-day when
a stylishly dressed woman of uncertain
age turned into it from Broadway. She
was talking rapidly to herself and punctu-
ating her remarks with emphatic ges-
lures. the diamond rings on her fingers
flashing as she waved her arms. At the
Sub Treasury Building she stopped and
knocking at the front door, she brought
the Waterman who had been reading, and
in his gruffest tones demanded who's
there?' to the woman's energetic demand
to be let in There was no answer, so he
opened the peep-hole provided for such
emergencies and looked out and saw the
woman.

But must come in. want to see the

What treasurer"
why. your treasurer. You've got a
treasurer, haven't you? This wouldn't be
a treasury building without treasurer,
would it?''
Not being hired TO answer conundrums,
the Waterman was silent, and the woman
went on:

she began to talk i'm louder tone. ut is

You're all thieves and robbers; that's

Waterman made a move as If to end the
conversation. I'm not half through yet"
But, madam, we don't do business here

"Well, II l can't get my 500 back I'm
going to have the satisfaction OF telling

hole. AS the woman turned to go down
the steps she shouted: I'm going right

THE TRAIN ROBBERY TRIAL.
Witnesses for the State Show War
ren's Intentions


Columbia, S. C., May 1.-THE case
against Barlow Warren. on trial at Or
augsburg for train robbery, went to the
jury this evening at o'clock. The two
most important witnesses for the state
were Miss Susie Rossis, an assistant to
a hair-dresser in Charleston.
The proprietress testified to having sold
a man a wig and a beard two days be-
fore the robbery, and to having seen the
same man since in the jails at Charles
ton and Orangeburg. but she declined 20
Identify the prisoner as that man. Miss
Rossis was more obliging, however, and
positively identified Warren as the man
who purchased the articles.
W. M Conner of Branchville testified
that two weeks before the robbery War
rem had unfolded 10 him plans for rob
bling a train, saying that he wanted
partner and thought Conner was the man.
After considering the proposition for a
day Conner says he declined, telling War
rem that a young man named Tom Wat
son had more nerve than he, and would
suit his purpose better. Tom Watson
swore that Warren made a similar pro-
posal to him. He took the matter under
consideration, but while absent from home
one day the train was robbed. He then
went to Galveston, Tex.
The defense put up no witnesses. 1t had
been promised that the mysterious, hand
some and wealthy young widow would
take the stand, but the defense rested on
the insuGiciency of the states case. The
argument was that Conner and Watson
were influenced by promised rewards. A
mistrial is expected.
At l o'clock this morning the jury IS
still out. A mistrial is probable, although
it is understood only one man is holding
out for conviction.
