stored, and the bulldog turned out to
be the mildest hammered creature.
A correspondent supplies some re-
markable details of the new bulldog
craze among the aristocratic fair. 1t
f1ourishes not only among the doggy
women who show at the Crystal Pal
ace and who spend much of their spare
time in analyzing the constituent parts
of a Spratt biscuit, but among the
quiet young women who cannot tell
the difference between a Schipperke and
a Chow Chow. The fad began in the
Bra dley- Martin set, and is spreading
like smallpox, or a locust cloud, to-
ward the wild confines of Brixton. The
result is bad for the poodle, whose nose
is getting put out of joint; but excel
lent for the bulldog, who never did
have such a time as he is having just
now. In the Bond street tea shops, on
the lawn at Ranelagh, and along the
quiet back waters of the Thames, the
small talk is now very canine indeed.
Strange words like "brindle," "fallow,"
screwed" reached" and so on, sounds
stranger still from fair lips; but they
all mean bulldog.
Several beautiful specimens of the
breed may he seen in the park on most
mornings, when there is any sun to
speak of, tiled on to some very
charming girls, who have suddenly dis
covered that a chic combination of
beauty and the beast makes beauty all
the more ravishing. The bulldog loves
peace and veal outlets more than any
thing in this earth: but when he is

the low ours who fancy themselves a

New York July 2S-The trial of
Lawrence Murphy, accused of enibez-
zling $4,000 from the Journeymen
Stonecutters' Association, of. which he
was treasurer, was continued to-day.
Murphy's counsel sought to prove the
'secret committee" of the stonecut-
ters' union, ostensibly engaged in set
Ting strikes, was a band of conspira-
tors, and fearing the hand of the law
decided to make Murphy the scapegoat.
John Boyle, a member of the 'secret
committee" testified to the reception
of a check for 81, 600 from the Brooklyn
Stone Dealers Association, and that
the members of the committee voted
themselves $1,60S for services to be
rendered. He swore that Murphy got
his money that way.
The trial was adjourned until to-
morrow.

These affidavits relate to the charges
which formed the basis of Miller's ex-

before the race was too much to ask
of any horse, yet very able horsemen
thought there might be exceptions and
McChesney might be the exception.
The first stake race in which the
Western horse is entered is the Sara
toga Handicap, to be run earG in Au-
gust at the Spa. Waterboy is not en-
tered for that race. On Aug Is the
Saratoga Champion Stakes, valued at
$4,000, at a mile and a quarter. is the
first race in which Waterboy and Nc
Chesney are both eligible. In that
race, should they both start, they will
carry weight for age, which means
that both horses will have the same
impost. The Saratoga Cup, a $4,000
stake race at mile and six furlongs,
to be decided on Aug. %, and the
Champlain Stakes, at a mile and an
eighth, to be run on Aug. rs, are the
only other stake race in which these
racers are both entered, and it is prob
able that the two horses will be seen
at one of the stake races during the
Saratoga meeting.
1t is expected that Waterboy will be
shipped to Saratoga within ten days.
