Found In Androscoggin
At Gorham, n. H., Sunday--Had
Worked for |. |. Wellman.
Drowned Man Said to Have ReIa.

Whoopine Cough.

This disease commences very mucl
the same as an ordinary cold, but may
soon be identified by it's peculiar
cough. The principal danger is from
the accumulation Of tough, tenacious
mucus In the throat, choking the child,
or the prolonged and violent cough
Ing, rupturing the tiny air cells Of the
lungs. When neglected complications
arise. That is, it leads to other and
more dangerous diseases, convulslons,
pneumonia, ETC., which often results
fatally. "Coussen's Honey Of Tar"
will keep the the cough loose and the
expectoration easy, allay the irrits-
tion and tickling In the throat, MAX
ing the fits OF coughing less violent
and less frequent. The reason this
remedy has bad such phenomenal sue
cess in the treatment of whooping
coughs is that the manufacturers of
of Coussen's Compound Honey OF Tar
are the sole proprietors OF the process
Of manufacturing Castanine, power

into the home stretch. Tenny was
more than two lengths of open
daylight behind, and he was still
mad.
Garrison was one of the great
est finishers that ever bestrode a
horse in this country. From the
head of the stretch home he put in
the effort of his career. Tenny
Strengthened his ears again and
answered Garrison. Shortly be
began to close the gap. Slowly,
an inch at a time it seemed, but
still surely he was gaining on Sal
vator. And Salvador was running
Just as fast as he could. Murphy
drew his whip and looked back
again. He laid the whip down and
called to Salvador with voice,
knees and hands. The whip for
the last resort. Tenny was clos
ing. Was the distance to the fin
ish enoughg Given sufficient
length of ground, and Tenny
would pat away all separation and
be at Salvator's throat in front of
him.
Murphy rode hard. Garrison
almost crept to Tenny's foretop in
his straining for effort. Not a
murmur came from twenty thou
sand watchers. Tenny crept on.
Salvatar strove. Tenny at his
quarters, at Salvator's saddle
skirts, at his neck, at his throat
latch, at-the finish !
Outside the judges stand no
one could tell which had won.
Haggin stood white holding to his
sons arm. Salvator's number
went up. "Too-too close for
comfort, son." said Haggin. Sal
vator had beaten Tenny by the
shortest of heads and was Turf
King.
Now, had it not been for that
home loving of Tenny's and Isaac
minding of it. there
would have been no half length
lost on the second turn; and, as
you see, only short head sepa-
rated then, at the finish, you may
igure for yourself which would

THEN CAME THE COUP.

Then Murphy sprang his coup
Tenny's stall stood there just be-
yond the middle of the turn, and
the door was calling him from the
heat and the trial of the day. Gar.
rison had almost begun to urge
Tenny, and the horse had begun
to respond. Murphy took just the
right moment, and guided Salvador
away from the inside rail toward
the middle of the track. Tenny
perforce must be eased out also,
for to come up he must come on
the outside. Garrison gave gen.
tie pressure on his right rein as
the middle of the turn was
reached. Tenny went out wide
and then wider. He saw the stall
door. He was going home !
Garrison felt the purpose of the
horse, and in flash swung on the
left rein, sitting down to ride in
good earnest. Tenny, disap-
nay angered, at the loss
Of home going, pinned his ears fat
on his hooded head and sulked.
For half a dozen strides he short
ened and fought back atthe demon
who was fighting him. Garrison
punished Tenny as he had never
been punished before. Murphy
ooked back as be took Salvador
close to the rail again and headed

foeman Tenny was. Haggin wa;
so filled with confidence, born OF
his worship of Salvador, that be
would scarce give ear to lsaac's
fears, and had the negro lost the
race it is my belief he would have
parted racing company with the
black boy. So it was that Isaac
put himself to serious thought,
keeping his counsel, as was his
habit. When he mounted for the
match he had what racing people
call IAN ace in the hole" Whether
or not that ace woald win for him,
one fleeting moment would tell.
Both riders had instructions to
run all the way. There were to
be no waiting tactics. Speed,
speed, speedl was to be the way OF
the ruoning, and they made it that
way. Off from the starters red
flag the pair of horses sprang,
6ghting for the freedom of the
bit Head and head they burst
through the FIRST quarter of mile,
the crowd sitting breathIess. Then
there came a mild shout from the
stand as Salvator's head, and then
his aeck, showed to the front.
Gradually the neck became half
the length of Salvator's long body.
Thea it became the whole length,
and TenDy's bead was at Salvator's
tail. All this time the pace had
been terrific. All this time Saliva
tor was, surely as deaths coming,
away from Tenn.
That did not mean Tenny's de-
feat, for Tenny was known as a.
great stretch ronner. He could
make his last quarter tremendous
effort. Salvador went further away
and daylight began to show be-
tween them. The pace was never
Garrison on Tenny
was patient, knowing the stretch
'un he had under him, and hoping
hat Salvador would tire at such
ipeed. Salvador drove along the
back stretch and swung into the
econd turn a good length and a
lalf in front, and Garrison was
'ecoming uneasy. He began to
aution Tenny and to ask a bit
1ore of the horse.

Salvador, great race horse, hat
beaten Tenny, mighty runner o1
the turf, in the Suburban Handi
cap at Sheepshead Bay. Salvador
had also disposed of other rival.
in that same race, and they were
calling him the King of the Turf
when David Pulsifer made pro.
test. He owned the person Of
Tenny, and in that horse was wrap
ped the pride and the ambitions Of
the tribe of Pulsifer.
So insistent was Pulsifer thai
Tenny had no superior in Amer
lea, that be work ed himself
into an emotional challenge, and
made a wager of FIVE thousand
with James B. Haggin that Saliva
tor could not repeat the perform
anee of the Suburban and thrust
defeat into the face of Tenny the
secoRd time. Thus it came about
that on June day at old Sleeps
head the great crowd gathered to
witness a battle of the giants, and
the whole country fingered close
to the telegraph wires to get first
hand news of the finish.
Now, there have been many
splendid stories and at least one
good poem written of that match.
Stirring tales they are; and yet
there is one little yarn one may
write even now, which, while it
may tarnish in a measure the
crown of Saltwater, yet gives to
Tenny his due, long overdue, and
goes to show that in this stipend
Gus game of horse racing the prize
is not always to the swiftest. Sal
yator did not beat Tenny in the
match because he ran a bit faster.
Tenny had popularity, and be-
cause a jockey knew it and took
fair advantage of it, Salvador had
ais white nose in front at the end

quarter. 1t was Isaac Murphy,
negro knight of the saddle, who
won the duel. OF course, he had
