This Duke Had His Nerve.

Over this same race of Hermit's there
was a still more tragic episode, William
the third Duke of Hamilton being the
chief actor. People went mad over the
chances of Hermit, and especially when it
was reported that he had burst a blood
vessel. All sorts of bets were laid against
him and the widest sort Of plunging was
done over what he m ght do in the race
His trainer was the famous Capt. Machell
the very keenest judge of horses. and of
course he knew whether the bursting Of
the blood vessel affected the horses
chances. One night about couple Of
weeks before the race Machell walked
INTO Longs Hotel where there was some
brisk betting going on. No matter what
size bet man wanted to make he could
always find a taker at Longs, for 1t was
a plungerS' resort.
On tn s occasion they were laying 20 to
against Hermit and before he was long
In the house Machell had covered bets
which would bring him $225, 600. He put
up his money SO freely that few Of the
wiser division began to think the trainer
had good thing. knowing Of course what
Hermit could do. so naturally after
little while there came a lull IN the anx-
iety to lay odds against Hermit. Then 1t
was Machell's turn to create surprise,
and he did it when in loud voice he an
nounced that he stood ready to take $780,
COO to 81 600 about the horse and in very
short time the money was covered. Just
at that moment in walked the Duke of
Hamilton and he was Immediately told
a bout the betting and he was aflame in
minute for a plunge. but when few of
his retainers who were there wanted to
give him the exact figures he waved them
aside saving that the sums were not
worth talking about.

are clearly demonstrated by the height
the jumpers Of this school are clearing in
the closed meets. The school has a trio
of good men in this event in Rathbone,
Shore and Nordlnger. All these boys can
clear the bar around five feet, and as this
height will assure one Of them at least
a place In this event in the spring meet,
there Is no reason whatsoever why these
three boys shouldn't increase this height
by few inches and cop first, second and
third place when the spring competitions
between the high schools blow around.

MARQUIS Bad Bet of $250,000.

AS the horses went to the post the own
err of Lady Elizabeth was sitting with
Maria Marchioness of Ailesbury. in her
carriage, and he watched every move Of
the horses through field glass. The
horses were long way Off, but very ear
~ in the fray the keen eye of the mar
quis saw that Lady Elizabeth had not
the ghost of chance, but, being one OF
the best losers, he never quaied. Only
as the horses flashed past the post he was
trifle pale, but his mouth was set and
his eyes Slared. Then the marchioness,
noticing his pallor, and being a woman
of quick perception, and at the same time
resourceful offered the marquis her bet
ting book aud asked him to calculate how
much she had lost. He did some figuring.
and, returning the book in the coolest and
polteSt manner, Informed her that she
had lost about f25. 1t was most clever
interruption, executed for the purpose Of
distracting the thoughts of the marquis
for the time being from his disaster and
yet the marchioness only guessed that he
must have had a heavy bet on the race.
In her three-year- year Lady Eliza
beth gave every promise that she would
land the Derby, for in the early spring
races she showed some classic form. Her
most dangerous opponent was Hermit,
who belonged to a wealthy man named
Chaplin, who was at the time engaged
to marry the Warehouses of Ailesbury.
This state OF affairs involved romance
the marchioness was madly in love with
the Marquis of Hastings, and 1T was an
open secret that he had the highest re-
gard for her However, the Derby came
around, and some enormous betting was
recorded. The marquis took one last
chance and he backed Lady Elizabeth
to the amount of $3.50, OOO but he was
doomed once more to disappointment, for
Hermit won the much-coveted race and
his owner gathered in the handsome sum
of 100000, which is probably the biggest
amount ever won by one man over the
race. The marchioness never became the
wife of Chaplin, for she eloped with the
marquis and married him and shared
some of the misfortune which befell him
later on.

Another week will mark the practical completion of the new Empire theater and within the next two weeks, Globe s newest playhouse will be formally open ed, barring delay in the arrival of chairs for the auditorium and scenic equipment for the stage.
 The exact date of the formal opening of the new home of Thespius has not been announced as yet, as Quinn Broth CTS, lessees. are not in this city at the present time. Contractor Altwies will complete the building by March ', how, ever, and the formal opening will come shortly after that date.

On the stage, part Ol the lOlI Has been completed and the work of erect. ing fly galleries was taken up yester. day. The electrical equipment for the stage has not arrived as yet, but it will be here within short time. This out. fit will be of the best, as full lighting equipment for the stage will be in stalled, including set of dinners, by which the amount of light on the stage can be regulated to produce any de sired scenic effect.
 In front of the building, the side | walk is being put in place and the en tire structure will be completed at prac | tically the same time.
 The interior of the new show house | will present a decidedly attractive ap | pearance when completed. The audi torium is designed with the idea of pro | ducing excellent acoustic effects anC at the same time to carry out an ar tistic design throughout. It will seat about 800 people on the main floor, il the balcony and in the boxes.
 Eight dressing rooms with the neces sary lavatories are supplied beneath tn, stage, affOrding ample room for any company likely to play engagements al the new theater.
 Quinn Brothers will more than likely open in stock, as the stage is not de signed to accommodate the larger roat shows.
