Heno, Irish Lad and Major

the Entries at Grayesend
MORE SUBURBAN TRIALS
New York Trainers Are
Trying to Give Their
Pet Candidates a Race

NEW YORK, June u.-There are some
interesting features to the card at
Garvesend tomorrow afternoon, compris-
ing the temperance of Heno after his
temporary retirement, the entry of Irish
Lad in the handicap at a mile and a six
teenth and the running Of the Astoria
Dinner stakes
How are the mighty fallen when both
Heno and Major Daingerfield are carded
to meet in an ordinary, everyday selling
race! Irish Lad is meeting quite good
field. This will be real Suburban trial
for him, and unless he comes home in
front it is feared it will be the last public
appearance of this famous race horse.
Whether there are some pounds differ
ence between Lady Amelia and Big Ben
the first race will decide. The last time
these good sprinters met Lady Amelia
was giving two pounds to Big Ben and
lasted. just long enough to beat him out
a head At the same distance Lady Ane-
liza is called upon to give him six pounds,
and this ought to turn the tables in favor
of the big horse. It seems Major Dain-
gerfleld should land the second race on
his class, provided he will run kindly. He
prefers heavy track, but so does De
Reszkc. and as he beat him easily before
he should hold him safely. Entries:

Mark Twain Met Greeley.

always recall that talk with Hay
with pleasure, not only for its own
sake. but because it was incidentally
the occasion of my getting acquainted
with Horace Greeley, man whom l
greatly admired and longed to see and
whose memory l still revere. 1t was
difficult to get an interview with him,
for he was busy man, he was irasci-
BILE, and he had an aversion to strang-
ers,, but 1 not only had the good for
tune to meet him, but also had the
great privilege of hearing him talk.
The Tribune was in its early home at
that time, and Hay was leader-writ-
er on it's staff. I had an appointment
with him and went there to look him
up. 1 did not know my way and en-
tered Mr.. Greeley's room by mistake.
l recognized his back, and stood mute
and rejoicing. After little he swung
slowly around in his chair, with his
head slightly tilted backward and the
great moons of his spectacles glazing
with intercepted light; after about a
year-though it may have been less,
perhaps he arranged his firm mouth
with care and said with virile interest:
"Well? What do You want?"-From
a Letter to Harper's Weekly.

WISE WORDS.

Do good deeds with effect, not for
effect.
What is morally wrong cannot be
commercially right.
Never retort an angry word. 1t is the
second word that makes the quarrel.
Learn to say kind and pleasant
things whenever the opportunity offers.
You can not tell the depth of a mans
wisdom by the intensity of his silence.
The curse of the impure heart is
that it can only see the things of the
night.
When man is long on cowardice he
is sure to try to pass it of as con-
science.
You may safely judge boys prog
ress at school by the interest his father
takes in the schools.
Individual suffering appeals to some
men who are unmoved by the thought
of millions in distress.
There is as yet no culture, no method
of progress known to men, that is SO
rich and complete as that which is min
istered by truly great friendship

When Someone Cares.

To know that Someone cares when I
Am wronged by those l trust,
That Someone stands with flashing
eye
When tale is told unjust,
Is recompense for all the ills
My heart in anguish bears
It sends rejuvenating thrills
To know that Someone cares.
1t soothes the feverish brow OF pain
And from quiescent state
I'm nerved to tilt my lance again
For one more bout with Fate;
1t studs with stars Griefs blacklist
night,
Yea, subtler charm it bears
OF making heavy burdens light,
To know that Someone cares.
Although this Someone's. light and
frail,
A giants strength she lends
To me when I am near to fail;
She counters, parties, tends
So many blows from reaching me,
And each that does she shares.
It's half the battle, you'll agree,
To know that Someone cares!

From the Chicago Journal. Nov. 9.
1A06l

When Commissioner Garfield went to
the Chicago packers and asked permits
sion to inspect their books, the condi-
ton was made that no information he
might obtain therefrom would be used
in court proceedings against them.
Mr.. Garfield gave this pledge. it is
stated, and the packers allowed him to
study their business in all its details
from the inside.
Now, it is announced. the results of
his study have been turned over to the
Government department of justice to
be employed in legal prosecution of the
packers.
Commissioner Garfield would not
have ventured to give the pledge that
was demanded by the packers without
instructions from Washington. He
pledged. not his own word, but the
Governments. 1t is not his good faith,
but the Governments, that is in Ques-
ton now.
The Journal has no concerpFfor the
packers. except as they are citizens OF
Chicago. If it can be proved that they
are guilty of engaging in conspiracy
In restraint of trade, they ought to be
punished.
But their guilt, if they are guilty,
must be fairly proved. They must be
given a square deal.
Since the Government has elevated
its vision to such height us to over
look the nest of defiant criminal trusts
almost within the shadow of the capt.
toll dome. in order to fasten itself a
thousand miles away upon Chicago.
the Government and the President
cannot be too careful to avoid suspi-
cion that they are more anxious to
prosecute Western offenders than Of
tenders in the East.
Some of the methods already en-
ployed in this case have not been par
ticularly distinguished for decency-
When the Government enters mans
house and takes his private papers,
when it drags the wives OF packing
house employees into court and puts
them under heavy bonds. it is hardly
dignified. not to say honorable. nor
even respectable.

leaving no trace Behind her except
a bunch of black flowers, and by their
side her little gold wedding ring.
The King was very much upset
when he heard the news, but he soon
settled down to being. a bache or
again, and seemed quite happy and
bright as he went about the Ceurt
daily.
Once when he was driving back
from some royal ceremony, accom-
panied by the Lord Chamberlain, the
carriage stopped with tremendous
jerk that nearly threw the King on
to the opposite seat.
Put your head out" he said testify
to the Lord Chamberlain. See what
has happened, and tell Marks tc
drive more carefully"
The Lord Chamberlain did as he
was directed, but sat back again in
the carriage without offering any ex-
PLANTATION of what had occurred.
What was it?'' asked the King
only a donkey cart driven by an
old woman was the reply.
AS they drove on the King put his
head out to see for himself the cause
of the obstruction.
An old woman stood by her DON
keys head shaking her fist and abus-
ing the royal Goa Imam strongly.
Directly she caught sight of the
King she turned her attention to
abusing him, and as they drove OFF
her curses rang in his ears.
"Who was that old hag?" he in.
quired thoughtfully.
The Lord Chamberlain hesitated
before replying, and the Kings sus-
picicns were aroused.
Now, sir, no nonsense, pl ase! Ar
swer me at once, and speak the
truth Who was that old woman
Then the Lord Chamberlain low
cred his voice almost to a whisper,
and after begging the Kings pardon
for what he had to say, told him that
everybody declared the old woman
to be the Queen Imogen herself. Fer
bad, uncomfortable temper had made
her more suitable to live in a hut
then a palace; and when she had
plucked the black flower she had only
got what she deserved.
The King was very silent for a
few minutes; then he remarked,
more to himself than his companion:
my poor wife. My poor lmogen!"
But presently bright smile broke
over his face, and as he nestled down
among the cushions and rugs re re-
marked cheerfully:
"She is letter paced where she
is, and it is very nice and peaceful
at the Palace now."-(Myra Hairil-
ton, in Casssll's Magazine.

Walked on Tiptoe Through Habit.

Walked on Tiptoe Through Habit.
Three good-looking workmen passed
down the long length of the art gal.
lery on tiptoe.
Why do they walk GA tiptoe?" said
patron.
The proprietor smilingly answered
''I'll tell you why, and the reason Isl
so strange that you will hardly credit
it.
Those men are stained glass work
ers imported from Paris for my new
stained glass department and they
walk on tiptoe because they have
worked so much in churches and
cathedrals that the gait has become
habitual with them.
Practically all their working hours
have been spent in the repairing Of
the magnificent old painted windows
Of the churches of Europe. Since
these churches are always open, since
services are always going on in them.
work must be conducted quietly and
all walking must be done on the toes.
Hence these three excellent arti-
lists whenever they enter a specious
and quiet place like this gallery of
mine rise up on their toes invulun-
tarily from subconscious notion that
they are in church.
This is odd, but true-true of all
European stained glass workers.

A Queer Request.

In 1891 an old lady left to the British
Lifeboat Institution the sum of $1,000.
to be paid on the death of a favorite
kitten which had survived her, and
which was to be provided for with the
interest. In 1902 the cat disappeared,
and the courts have now decided to as
sumo its death and let the institution
have the money, on giving a bond TO
provide for the cat in case it should
come back.

said one of them. There were two
old dirt wagon horses that had
stopped for the noon meal. The driv-
er had emptied portion of oats into
a wheelbarrow set at the head of the
two horses, who still remained in the
traces. The horses were to eat out of
the common mess.
"Old Mr.. Bay Horse, who evidently
was a veteran in the dirt wagon line
and possessor of a good appetite,
would grab mouthful of oats and
splutter them out on the ground on
his side of the wheelbarrow. After
he had collected quite pile ON the

stock, and when he and his compan-

"and the mosquitoes were terrible !
They attacked cattle and live stock
and would drive them frantic. At one
place farmer was burning brush In
the field, and I noticed dozen cows
and horses clustered in the lee of the
smoke made by the burning brush.
They would move around as the wind i
