ALLIANCE FIGHT SET
TIED.

About $4,000 Will Now be
Distributed Among the Stock
holders---End Of the Ex-
change.
Columbia Record, Dec. 20.
The announcement tnst the Su-
preme Court had decided the Farm
ers' Alliance case puts 40 eud to a
long and tedious fight for the posses
sion of $4,000 which belonged to
the Alliance exchange and is sll that
remains of a once powerful organizs-
,ion.
The fight started several years ago
when H. E Brookshire, business
agent for the exchange, announced
that the fund could not be distribut-
ed as Was desired by the stockholders
at meeting here. An injunction was
brought and the fund thrown into
the hands of q receiver. Afterwards
it was deposited 10 the Palmetto
bank, of this city, aud has since re-.
NAMED there awaiting decision by
the Circuit and Supreme Courts.
TIE decision means that the fund
will be distributed among the stock
holders and it is probable that a
meeting will be called in few days
to do this. 1t has been suggested
that the money be turned over to the
Southern cotton association or some
other organization for farmers, but it
ia rot probable that this will be done.
There was originally about $4,000,
but some of this has been lost in
litigation and some by mismanage-
ment.

The New Education.

The question in regard to school
hours should not be how long they
can be made and the child retain its
health. but how short they can be for
the acquisition of knowledge which
his years call for" writes DR., Grace
P. Murray in the January Delineator.
"In no direction of bringing up child
rem do parents snow such ignorance
as in regard to school life. Mothers
should make themselves intelligent
upon all questions pertaining to
school hygiene. They should know
fret of all that the schoolroom, in
which the children are to stay from
three to five hours daily, is fit
place; that the school is not over
crowded; that the best authorities
agree that the number of scholars to
which a teacher can do justice should
be not more than forty, and that
smaller number would be better; that
each child should be allowed two
hundred cubic feet of space in the
sehoolrocm, otherwise be will not
have sufficient air; that the tempera.
ture should be according to the the
mometer IS to G6 degrees; that the
light should fall after the proper
manner upon the books which the
child is studying, in order to do
which there should be plenty of win
dows in the schoolroom. Every
mother should infrrm herself IN all
the.e matters. L. ia due to her chill
dren to see thai their education Is
Conducted along lines which are the
most beneficial for their bodies as

Mr.. Taylor No Longer a Gentleman
Jockey.-The Baltimore american said few
days ago that many of those who visit the
Pimlico track are wondering why Mr.. Robert
NJ. Taylor, the prominent gentleman jockey
and the hero of previous meetings, does not
have a leg up this spring. Mr.. Taylor has
been notified that his application for license
as gentleman jockey has been refused by the
National Steeplechase Association. No reasons
are assigned by the association for this action
and none will be. for the club is a close corpo-
ration and its sessions of the star-chamber va
riety. Mr.. Taylor has ridden in open steeple-
chases, and so have such men as Mr.. Dion
Kerr and Mr.. Page, the latter of whom is one
of the stewards who passed on Mr.. Taylor.
Discussing this matter Mr.. Taylor who, as is
well known, is a resident of Baltimore county,
said: II am exceedingly sorry that the ste
wards have seen fit to throw me out. l love
to ride, and have been doing my best in
that class of sport in this section for some years
now. This action of the stewards compels me
to drop out of the game altogether. l can
hardly see my way clear to become profess
sional steeplechase jockey, although l have
had plenty of offers"
Mr.. TAYLOR has ridden in some great races
since be- became steeplechase rider. His
most noted achievements have been with his
own horse, AarrahgOwan, on the Hat and
Young Exile and old Strike-a-light over the
Jumps. Mr.. Taylor has in his possession IA
cups the trophies of his skill as q gentleman
rider. Three of these he won at Washington
last fall, which, perhaps, set the wheels going
that finally caused his set-down. His first
race of national Importance was in 1900, when
he won the champion steplechase at Washing
ton on Exile. He was quoted at odds in the
books, as he defeated by excellent judgment
and riding ability the Diver and Highly, at
that time two of the greatest leapers in the
country From that time on be had one long
string Of successes. He road Imperialist, the
stout jumper belonging to Mr.. J. E. Lane. to
many q victory, and last year did wonders with
