PADDOCK PICKINGS.

], P. TrommelPs good sprinter Tally
H. showed yesterday that he was a
horse of some class. Tally H. has won
many races since the meeting opened
at Atlanta. Yesterday it looked as
though he was beaten at the eighth
pole, but when Jocket McJoint went
to work on him with whimp and spur
the old geiding responded gamely and
came on again.
]. r. Croker stated before the first
race yesterday that he wouldn't take
10 to l against his colt Bodul, who
was to l in the betting. Bodul won
easily like a l to chance Croker
then played his filly, Dusky Secret,
in the second, but the best she could
do was to get the place. He then placed
wager on his old horse Arack in the
fifth and again finished second.
Jack Sheehan thought his filly, Lii
jeanette, had a grand chance to win
the third and backed her heavily. The
filly tiattered her hackers to the stretch,
where she gave up, not being able to
stand the pace set by Tally H.
Ben Brown finally broke his bad luck
yesterday when his entry, Lady Mis-
take and Navigator ran first and sec
ond in the fourth race. Mr. Brown
stated after the race that he thought
Lady Mistake must really have made
mistake when she decided to win a
race.

We're announced yesterday and were
made up to suit the cheaper class of
horses. The management should put
on race now and then at a mile or
over where a little class would be rep
resented, instead of the many races for

class running mile or a mile and an

furlongs could ever create

was running several trainers never
looked at the race, but watched Caps.

both hands up as if holding the lines.
He would push and tug, steer the
horse around the turn, hollow to his
jockey (who was out of hearing dis
tance) to pull up if it looked like a
jam, etc. AS they neared the finish,
Capps started on a run for the wire,

INTEREST IS DEEPER
Friends Gatherin Large Num-
bers. Much Business
Goes Forward
Especial to News and observer,)

High Point, N. c., Aug. 7.-The
Friends yearly meeting was more largely
attended today than at any time since the
commencement. The large melting house
was filled with men and women, who gave
close attention to the matters brought be
| fore them.
The morning meeting was without
doubt one of the best meetings of the kline
ever held in the meeting house here. The
| able and impressable addresses of Samue
b. Neave, OF Baltimore, and Allen Jay
Martilla Cox and Irena Hunnieut. were
very noteworthy and had a marked effect
upon the meeting.
At ten O'Clock the business session of the
yearly meeting at large was opened. Epis-
ties were read from Baltimore, New York
and Indiana, and letters addressed to the
meeting were read from Prof Joseph
More, of Richmond, Iniana, and John v.
Hoover, of Iowa, a man who spent consid-
cradle in former years in North Carolina.
The clerk of the meeting was instructed
10 make replies to the epistles on behalf
of the yearly meeting.
The unfinished busines of the previous
day was taken up and received consider
alton. The importance of the department
of church work in North Carolina year
ly metineg was forcibly dwelt upon by
Joseph Potts, of Mount Airy: Rev. Eli
Reece, of High Point, and ]. Edgar Will
liam, of Greensboro. Appropriations of
funds for carrying on the work next year
was made, and subscription entered in
the meeting for the same purpose.
The afternoon session was still more
largely attended and very intense inter
est aroused on the subject of foreign mis-
sions by the reports from the foreign mis-
sion board, and by the reading of letter
from Miss Annie V. Edgerton, the mis-
sionary who is now holding her fifth year
in India. and especially by magnificent
address, by William Hotchkiss, the head of
the African industrial mission He is a
missionary of the true spirit and is de-
voted to the building up of humanity
through the world His knowledge of the
missionary field and his long experience
as worker in the cause, and his forcible
speech is very captivating to all his hear
ers.
The business to come before the meet
ing tomorrow will be of especial interest
The report of the orphanage committee,
the report of the trustees and president
of Guilford College.
Tonight was held meeting of the old
students association of the college, when
the principal address was made by Allen
Jay, of Earlham College, Indiana.
There are quite a number of native
North Carolinians present who have come
on visit to the Old North State from
Indiana and other States upon the occa-
sion of the yearly meeting They left the
State about forty-five years ago, and it
is scarcely an exaggeration to say that
q majority of the Friends in attendance
of other yearly meetings are descendants
of North Carolina stock.
