With bowed head. fearful eyes and
bleeding heart Virginia lays to rest
the mortal remains of her distin-
guished and much beloved citizen.
Gen. Fitzhugh Lee, in beautiful
Hollywood today. 1t was a grand
sad scene and the deepest sorrow
was visible upon every cOuntenance.
Yet. it is a consolation tOknow that
this sorrow was not confined to Nlr-
ginia. but all over our broadcountry
and even beyond the deep waters
where his fame had gone. genuine
and sincere sorrow was felt. VIZ
ginia weeps today and the whole
country weeps with her.

A GREAT HORSE RACE
Sysonby and Race King Run Dead
Heat in Metropolitan Handicap.
THE PURSE WAS OVER $4,000
Over $4,000 People Saw the Thorough
breds, Driven Like Mad, Dash Under
the Wire So Close the Judges Could
Not Separate Them.

Not Separate hen'
New York. May j.-One of the
greatest crowds more than 10000
that ever gathered to see a thorough
bred race in America was at Belmont
Park to witness the sensational run
ming of the Metropolitan Handicap in
which James r. Kerne's 3yearold
Sysonby and O. L. Richards hardy
4-year-old Race King finished so close
together that the judges were unable
to separate them Both owners an
nounced their satisfaction with the
result as il stood. and the purse,
amounting 10 more than $4,000, was
divided Sysonby was the fayorite in
the betting. his stable mate, Delhi,
having been Withdrawn. Long odds
were offered the public on Race King
but there were few who thought highly
of the Tenny colts chances.
The start for the race. which was
at one mile, was directly across the
track from the grand stand, and the
great crowd enjoyed the spectacle 70
the full. Santa Catalina had the rail
and showed for an instant in front,
but Sysonby was at her side, and be
fore the first quarter pole had been
reached the Keene colOrs flashed to
the fore. SysOnby seemed 10 have
clear lead of two or three lengths on
the far turn. but Shaw eased up his
mount as stiff wind struck him in
the face. and took the Melton colt
back. allowing the field to close on
him. AS the mass of cOlors whirled
around the bend into the stretch and
directly toward the grand stand a
cheer went up from the field stand and
ran down the broad lawns to the club
house like a roar of artillery. Sysonby
was seen to bear away toward the out
side rail and at his side was Race
King. the little swaybacked son OF the
famous Tenny.
To even the most hardened race
goers the struggle between these two
was such as to send lump into the
| throat. There was an instants silence
as the thoroughbreds dashed along the
rail. First one brown muzzle showed in
front and then the other as the horses
strained every fibre to gain an inch.
Shaw and Smith were driving like
mad, to no purpose, and their charges
finished so closely together that the
Judges were unable to separate them.
The shouting multitude, which had
been stilled for an instant by the royal
struggle, broke out into cheers afresh
as the ciphers went up denoting a
dead heat, for the crowd had wit
messed something seldom seen in the
big handicaps and felt rewarded there
by. even If not successful in backing
the winners.
Behind Sysonby and Race King, but
on the inside rail- was Colonial Girl,
winner of the Worlds Fair Handicap
at ST. Louis. Both she and her stable
mate, First Mason, ran a good race.
The others were beaten of.
James r. Keene and o. l.. Richards,
owners of Sysonby and Race King,
quickly settled the question OF the
dead heat by dividing the proceeds.

ADJUSTMENTS.

Joseph Murphy gave Kerry Cow to
the patrons Of the salt Lake theater
last night. And right well did he give
IT, OF all the irish players before the
country today none has a stronger
hold on the public than this same joe
Murphy His welcome last night was
warm one even though his audience
was not so large as IL might have been.
From the moment he took the center
OF the stage and told his auditors that
Cow meant blacksmith" and that
Kerry Cow being translated from the
Hibcruan slgnihed literally the
blacksmith Of Kerry county" the sim.
pie story OF the play unfolded Itself I'm
manner most charming, The play is
typical Irish drama OF the school
which Bouccault made famous, 1t has
its heart story and It's tragedy, It's
scenes Of quiet simplicity and It's
strong element Of comedy Of course
the whole is as highly colored as the
Adolphi melodrama, but Il is entranc-
ingly quaint throughout, and though
impossible. Il Is ploasingly So Mr.
Murphy's support consists principally
OF the male persuasion, men whose
names are ms Irish as his own and
whose natural brogue would furnish
the Doolcy letters man with vocub-
ulary that would keep him supplied for
years.
A most pleasing feature Of last
nights performance was the splendid
opportunity for the study Of rich
character types AS Dan O'Harn Mr..
Murphy was the sort OF hero that tho
people Ike. Naturally tho dialogue
hrlstled with Irish wit and sarcasm,
and naturally too, Mr. Murphy had
his share Of II to hand out to his
hearers whom he at times almost con-
Vulsed.
The production was finely staged
and many pretty pictures OF the Em-
erQld Isle were presented. The dove
cote was perhaps the most beautiful.
There were evidences OF the sham
rock everywhere and blarney was be-
sprinkled as freely as the shower of

type, win bring the engagement to

feated Three Senate Bills
Rejected

As was expected, the Fishburn or
follower bill was passed by the house
yesterday afternoon. Its passage, how
ever, wa not without opposition. and II
Is safe to say that had the bill not been
agreed upon In caucus, II would have
gene down to defeat because OF the pro-
nounced sentiment against II, IA It
was the measure received SO affirmative
votes, while three, Cromar, Miller and
Tonton, voted against IT,
As the roll call proceeded "explana-
lions" were much in evidence, among
those taking advantage OF the oppor-
tunlty being kuchler, McCrea, Miller,
Thompson, Tolton and Hun. Roberts
said he voted for the bill, not because
II had been agreed upon In caucus, but
because II was n merltorlous measure,
Speaker Hull was opposed to the elimi-
nation Of the long term clause, but said
he supported the bill because he had
agreed to in party caucus.
Before the vote on the final passage
OF the bill, Miller moved that It be
made the special order for Tuesday at
81. M, as he Viewed II as an important
measure and one which should receive
thorough consideration. The motion
was opposed by Roberts Fishburn, Ed
ward and several others, and on being
put 10 a vote was declared lost Then
there was a scramble for the lobby and
committee rooms, but the assistant SER
nt-at-arms was ordered to bring
back all who had thus tried 20 escape.
He did 80 and the vote was taken with
the result given above, At the critical
moment Daley was excused to attend
