Davis coIors that the wyngardt Incident
took place at Jerome. The sturdy gray
had proven nearly as good a bread-winner
for the popular West Virginia stable as
had War Eagle, who split General
Monroe and Jack of Hearts in that sensa-
tianal finish for the first Suburban, when
Snapper Garrison. then a lightweight.
RODE the Davis horse.
Like War Eagle, Oridamme was a mad
der par excellence. and in the jerome Park
race had that going to negotiate. But he
was meeting a strong field. one Of Burch's
horses-I think 1t was the mare Biggonat-r
being a strong favorite with Bobby" May
nard to ride her. Maynard. who was also
called ''Four-fingered Bob" while not a
f1rst-class Jockey, was of fair ability, and
understood Biggonet thoroughly, from the
day he rode and won with her the Spinaway
stakes at Saratoga, In which ensued the
record delay at the POSITIVE hours and
twenty minutes.
But Biggonet, while also a superior mud
lark. had one peculiarity-or rather aver
sion-she resented getting much mud in her
face and eyes during race, and was apt
to fail to show her best in such an event
Andy Mccarthy, who was to ride ORR
famine. was well aware of this falling OF
Biggonet, and. having been given carte
blanche as to how he would ride the gray,
said to Col. Davis:
Now. colonel. YOU leave Oriflammes ham
ding to me, you say. Well, am going to
take the track Just ahead of Burch's mare
II l have to whip to get there. l mean
whenever we two get of am going to lay
just in front Of her and give her all the
mud / can from my horses heels right in
her face. That Is my only chance to beat
Biggonet."
Among those who knew the tactics to be
followed with Orifiamme was Andy Wynn
gardt. So he said to several OF US: Boys,
I guess I'll put about fifty on the gray"
And we all ''moseyed'' back to the betting
ring to also play Orifiamme. The odds
were 10 to l, and as we scattered for tops"

Quartermaster Steamer Gen
eral Bachelor Expected
This Week.

On account of the large number of
artillery companies stationed at the
local forts a larger vessel to trans
port the men and their families be-
tween the post and the city, as well
as to handle the freight, has been
made necessary, and the war depart
ment has ordered the steamer Gen
eral Bachelor to proceed to Pensa-
cola from Fort Morgan, and the yes
sci will probably reach here during
this week. At least advices received
at the local post are to the effect that
she will reach here during the latter
portion of the week.
The steamer Poe, which has been
plying between Pensacola and Fort
Barancas, will leave upon the arri-
val of the General Bachelor for Mo
bile and will run between that city
and Fort Morgan, but inasmuch as
that fort has about been abandoned,
she will not see much service.
The General Bachelor is a large
and commodious vessel, and has ex-
cellent passenger accommodations.
In fact she is more of a passenger
vessel than freight carrier. She
draws about twelve feet of water and
to accommodate her wharf is being
built further south on PalafoX wharf
than where the Poe lands.

made that with the service this after
noon and the one tonight the revival

BY Associated Press.

Rome, Dec. 1.-THE Spanish gov
eminent has notified the Vatican that
it objects to taking charge at present
of the archives of the papal nuncia-
ture at Paris owing to the rupture of
diplomatic relations between France
and the Vatican. Spain certainly
would have accepted the task If asked
by the Vatican to do so when the
papal nuncio at Paris, Mgr. Loren
Zelli, was recalled, as France then
could not have made any objection.
But after the expulsion of Mgr. Mon
tagnini, the secretary of the nuncia-
ture, and the search of the archives,
such steps as taking charge of the
papel archives in France might be re-
garded as hostile to the French gov
eminent at Paris, which would be
contrary to the policy of the Spanish
government 1t is said in this con-
nection that the Vatican authorities
made a mistake in not applying i'm
mediately after the search. Of the
archives to Count Torneilli, the Ital-
ian ambassador at Paris, not as the
ambassador of Italy; but as dean Of
the diplomatic corps, whose duty it
is to protect the privileges of the
corps.
