Some Good Colts.

There are also some cracking good colts
in the stable of W P. Burch, but as Mr..
Burch is a trainer who goes very slow
with his horses, it is doubtful If they will
be seen at this meeting. and If at all, it
will be during the last week. The Lotus
Stable tArkell & Letter. are also a grand
looking lot, but are not being hurried.
A couple Of smart-lOoking youngsters
are here from the stable of J. J. Mac
kessy, and while a bit understood, look
as il they were all quality. One is Her

other by Kingston-St Cy9rian, called All

Mr. Mackessy has also in his string the

horse at the track IN this division is G.

say that he is fifty pound improved

-Unmasked Scheduled to Start as
Favorite in Spring Handicap - Must
Reckon With Some Coed Ores.

Favorable weather conditions have made
wonderful Improvement in the BenHing
track, and there is not trainer on the
grounds but is taking advantage of it,
and sending his horses along for all
they are worth. The approach OF Tues
day. when the meeting opens. makes this
a necessity, and trainers realize there is
not a moment to be lost; if they intend
to race in the early para OF it.
Judging from the way some of them are
sending their charges along, the meet
ing cannot begin any tco soon, so that
when the bell rings calling the thor
oughbreds to the post on the opening
day, it will find the majority ready and
fit.
All talk about the Benning horses be-
ing backward in their training is over
drawn, for visit to the track will now
convince the most skeptical that the ma
jority are well advanced, and that it will
take very little to have them on edge
for q race.

Ohnet Is Fit

1t is extremely doubtful II any horse
entered will go to the post as near fit as
Ohnet. He has been treated very lenient-
ly by Mr.. Vosburg, and it is certain that
he viii be fighting it out with the leaders
at the finish. He is not much OF a work
horse, but so far he has done all that
his trainer has asked of him. He got his
final prep on Friday last and is ready
The stable of William Garth is also wen
adyanced-in fact, ready to race. Two of
his string, Impartial and All Saints, await
only the word, and ought to win the first

OF the two-year- -olds at the track in
which interest centres just now, the best
seen so far are from the stable OF James
Mclaughlin. Mr.. Mclaughlin does not
hesitate TO say that his bay filly Eugenia
Burch. by Ben Strome-The Humber, is
the best FLY he has ever trained. That
is saying 4 good deal, as he has trained
some good ones.
There are some runors afioat. however,
that Blue and Orange, by Fitz James
fstal II. is the best in the stable. One
thing sure. they are both grand lockers,
and should give a good account OF them
selves when called upon.

1t is true that up to ten days ago the
conditions We're bad for training, but
even under the very worst conditions ali
the horses were put through continuous
shed work with no let up, so that when
the track improved they were ready for
their outdoor work

it was the first time they were asked 10

 The eruptions on Martinique and St. Vincent were preceded by heavy earthquake shocks which caused seri- ous disturbances and broke the ocean cables. These phenomena no doubt have direct connection with the re- cent destructive earthquake shocks In Guatamala.
 The congress of the United States took prompt action for the relief of the Martinique sufferers, appropriated S2o0, ,0OO, and the naval transport Dixie left the Brooklyn navy yard yeJtorday for Martinique with supplies. Other vessels will follow. President Roose welt, in q special message to congress, urged an appropriation of $500, 0OO, but owing to the fact that large private contributions are being made, the house appropriation committee deem- ed the lesser sum ample.

THE MARTINIQUE DISASTER

While the destruction of life by the volcanic eruption from Mount Pelec. on the island of Martinique, is not yet fully revealed, the published reports are sufficiently comprehensive to leave no doubt that it was the most appal- ling seismic catastrophe of modern times, excepting the Krakatoa erup- ton in Java and Sumatra, in 1883, when the estimated loss of life was one hundred thousand.
 The beautiful city of St. Pierre, sud denly enyelOped in a rain of subter- ranean fire, was completely destroyed, together with the adjacent shipping, and of the entire population in the city at the time, it is not known that any escaped, and only thirty persons were rescued from the eighteen ves- sels in the harbor Some six hundred persons are said to have embarked on steamers and reached places of safety before the final eruption occurred, but the early estimate of 30, coo lives lost is confirmed and later details from other districts in the northern part of Mar unique will most likely swell the num- Der of fatalities.
 Almost simultaneous with the erup- tion of Mount Pelee the volcano of Soufriere, on the island of St. Yin. cdnt belched ashes, stones and mouI- ten lava, destroying every vestige of animal and vegetable life for several miles around As there was timely warning of the approaching disaster, many of the inhabitants of threatened districts fled to places of greater safe ty, but nevertheless the loss of life is believed to have been considerable.

The editor of this paper, in common with many other citizens, regrets the demonstration made by the miners union against one of its del!nquent members, on last Sunday. That a mis- take was made is admitted by many members of the union, for although the provocation may have been consid. cred great, the act was unlawful as de- fined by the Arizona statutes. If we admit the right of one society, however strong in numbers and influence, to take the law into its own hands and mete out punishment to an offending member, we must recognize the same right in any other society or organiza- tion, no matter how few its members or slight it's influence. Carried to it's logical conclusion, the assumption would mean chaotic state of society, stripped of all moral responsibility, wholly without law or order, in which the strong would prey upon the weak. The constitution and the laws of the United States grant to every individual within the limits of her territory the right to life, liberty and the pursnit of happiness, and it were folly for any party, faction or society to decree oth- erWise

While some republican statesmen
 and the administration newspapers arc laboring to minimize the effect upon the American people of the disclosures of oruelties practiced on the natives by the army in the Philippines, lightly re- ferring to them as sporadic" cases, the senate investigation daily brings to light new evidence to give the lie to the apologists for the army. The water cure, sand cure and rope cure (which is little more fiendish than the other methods of torture) seem to have been employed with deplorable frequency, while the torch has many times been applied to native settlements, and their food supplies confscated and burned. To add to the discomfture of the war department Major Gardner has sub. mitted specific charges comprising thirteen specifications, charging the American officers and soldiers with various acts of cruelty as well as crimes perpetrated against the defenseless natives of Tabsyas. Sporadic" was not we'll chosen. It is misnomer.
