Ign leader, Senator Pat McCarren, for
the Democratic nomination for govern
or of New York, his friends are de-
claring taht he will put up a good fight
and If he loses he will not whimper.
Many stories are told about his game
ness and Indifference to fortune. -Four
years ago McCarren had his own
horse, Ocean Tide, entered in the
great FLY stakes at Sheephead Bay
and invited all his friends down to
see her win. His trainer had told
him that Ocean Tide could hardly
be beaten. He thought so highly of
the chances of his filly that he advised
all to bet on her, and although the
stake alone was worth $4,000, he and
his friends wagered over $4,000 more.
When the race started Senator Nc
Carren was talking to a friend and
he turned away from the track, not
looking at the horses. He looked up
just in time to see Ocean Tide beaten
bya head Fine race, wasn't it?" was
all he said.

Some old French memoirs throw an
interesting light on the manner In
which the French republic came to
bear the nickname Marianne" Dur
ing the days Of the white terror"
there was an old woman called La
Mere Marianne. whose duty 1t was to
mop up the pavement after an execu-
ton. In this capacity she attended
the decapitation of Louis XVI. and
Marie Antoinette, as well as other dis
tinguished victims. The gay hearted
royalists jeered at her under her
familiar name. which came to be ap-
piled to the revolutionary party. Later
the secret societies adopted it as a
watchword, and Marianne" came to
be used as a revolutionary symbol,
even by the Italian carbonari.
