FEW coLoRED JOCKEYS NOW.
White Riders Are the Favorites of the
Turf.

White Riders Are the Favorites of the
Turf.
Fifty years ago negroes had almost
a monopoly of training and riding
race horses. To-day they have all but
disappeared from the turf, save as
stablemen, rubbers, etc. In the ante
beIlum days the big land owners of
the south constituted the patrons of
racing from the owners standpoint. 1t
was natural for them to look for their
stable help of every degree from
among their many slaves. With the
establishment Of racing at Saratoga
soon after the close of the war, fol-
lowed by the opening of Jerome Park
shortly afterwards, the center of the
racing endeavor gradually shift
ed q from south of the Mason
and Dixon line to the terri
tory around the metropolis. The
negro, however, had been freed before
this and naturally stuck to the horses
and followed them north. The negro
Jockey forrished for many years after
racing was established in the north,
but his sun seems to have set with
the passing of Sims, Clayton and Per-
kins, the last Of the negro riders to
gain and hold the center of the stage
for any length of time, and about the
only real good negro Jocks" known to
the present generation of racegoers.

Cures Drunkenness,

A traveller has made the observation
that coffee-drinking people are very
seldom given to drunkenness. In Bra
I'll, for instance, where coffee is grown
extensively, and all the inhabitants
drink 1t many times day, intoxica-
ton is rarely seen. The foreigner
who settles there, though possessed
of ever such a passion for strong
drink, gradually loses his liking for
alcohol as be acquires the coffee
drinking habit of tho Brazilian.

Electricity IN Steel Making.

In any summary of the causes
OF our success in steel manu-
facture, great stress must be
laid upon the early and multi
piled adoption of electricity as a
motive power in the thousand
and one uses to which it has lent
itself so admirably Among
other applications that come to
mind, there are: the overhead
travelling electric crane: the
electric charging machine that
picks upa box containing a ton
OF mixture, thrusts it into the
furnace, empties and withdraws
it; the electric conveyer; the
electric elevator for loading the
blast furnaces; the electric
buggies that receive the heated
ingot after it has been lifted
from the soaking pits and runs
it down TO the mill; electric
machines for pushing the blooms
in at one end of the furnace, and
electric tongs for gripping them
and pulling them out at the
other end. These are a few of
the uses of electricity, to saw
nothing of pneumatic and hy
draulic power, that, conformity
with similar exhibitions of in.
genuity, forethought, and adj
ministrative skill in mine, ship,
and railroad, have enabled our
manufactures 10 sell "three
pounds Of steel for two cents. +"
while paying the highest wages
in the world to labor and return
ing the princeliest of fortunes to
