TRACK EVENTS.
The track events from first to last we're
a gratifying success, free from wrangling
and dispute, from eheapness and ring
ers." The mammoth grsndstands on
Wednesday and Thursday contained
crowds that filled them to the utmost,
while on the other days of the fair, par
ticularly Friday, many seats we're sold
Features of Wednesday and Thursday
on the track were parades OF prize win
ming horses and cattle, and they made up
professions that greatly pleased the null
titudes. The string OF Percheron horses
from Hearts Delight farm, the various
exhibits OF Morgans, the forty odd yokes
Of working cattle, and the punches of
bulls, cows and calves made
up grand sight.

| you know as well as l that mere
politics will not serve. It will take
some extraordinary measure = you
know men-and, perhaps, women"
Yes said DR.. Ward, "and pre-.
cious silly lot they are"
Calhoun nodded, with thin smile.
AS it chances, need a man. Ergo,
and very plainly. l must use a WON
an,
There are two women in our world
today said Calhoun. "As to Jack
son, the old fool was a monogamist,
, ND still is. Not so much SO Jim
Polk of Tennessee. Never does he ap-
pear in public with eyes other than
fgr the Dona Lucrezia of the Mexican
legation! Now, one against the other
Mexico against Austria"
DR.. Ward raised his eyebrows in
perplexity.
THAT is to say, England, and not
AUSTRIA" went on Calhoun coldly.
THE. ambassadress of England to
America was born in Budapest So l
say, Austria; or perhaps Hungary, or
some other country, which raised this
strange representative who has made
some stir in Washington here these
last few weeks"
"Ah, you mean the baroness!" ex-
claimed DR.. Ward. Tut! Tut"
Calhoun nodded, with the same cold,
thin smile. YES" he said, Il mean
Mr.. Pakenham's reputed mistress, his
assured secret agent and spy, the
beautiful Baroness Won Ritz"
He mentioned a name then well
known in diplomatic and social life,
when intrigue in Washington, if not
open, was none too we'll hidden.
Gay Sir Richard" he resumed.
You know, his ancestor was broth
er-in-law of the duke of Wellington.
He himself seems to have absorbed
some of the great dukes fondness for
the fair Before he came to us he
was with England's legation in Mexi-
CO. Twas there he first met the
Dona Lucrezia. IT'S said he would
have remained in Mexico had it not
been arranged that she and her hus-
band, Senior Yturrio, should accompany
Gen. Almonte in the Mexican ministry
here. On these conditions, Sir Rich
ard agreed to accept promotion as
minister plenipotentiary to Washing
toni"
That was nine years ago." COM
mented DR.. Ward
"Yes and it was only last fall that
he was made envoy extraordinary. He
is at least an extraordinary envoy!
Near 30 years of age, he seems to for
get public decency; he forgets even
the Dona Lucrezia, leaving her to the
admiration of Mr.. Polk and Mr.. Van
Zandt, and follows off after the
sprightly Baroness Won Ritz. Mean
time, Senior Yturrio also forgets the
Dona Lucrezia, and proceeds also to
follow after the baroness-although
with less hope than Sir Richard has
taste! The Baroness Won Ritz has
brains and beauty both 1t is she who
is England's real envoy. Now, l be-
lieve she knows England's real inten-
lions as to Texas
DR.. Ward screwed his lips for a
long whistle, as he contemplated John
Calhoun's thin, determined face.
II do not care at present to say
more went on my chief; but do
you not see, granted certain motives,
