TWENTY THOUSAND SPECTATORS.

 

LOUISVILLE, May 11.—The ninteenth oi
the long line of hundred winners of the
Kentucky Derby was crowned yesterday,
and his 1111::11: is Lookout. He 11011 it
grandly 1e:2 .ding his field from start to
finish and sueeping under the 1v'iic 1111
touched by w bin or spur. Plutus made a

noble 5h 11:. grlc for the prize but it was not-

in his 11 11:12.91 nature to beat the son of
Troubadour.

Never in the nineteen years in which the
famous Kentucky trophy has been 11'0'1
has such a host gathered at Churchill

' Downs. Twenty thousand is a fair esti-
mate of the multitude present.

The grand stand was packed with a
solid- mass of humanity, while thousands
swarmed over the free field, jammed the
lawns and struggled in the betting shed.
The ladies’ st 1nd 11 as a picture of bright
colmed gow 11s and bonnets, from 11 hich
gay setting peeped the bright faces of
Kent' icky beauties, gathered from ev er” _1
section of the old commonwealth. The
Derby marks Kentucky’s gala day. From
early in the morning a. crowd had streamed
out every road leading to the track, and as
the hour for the races approached varie-
gated ribbons of humanity stretched from
the city to the track in long winding lines.

The national convention of Republican
Leagues and the Republican executive
committee adjourned to see the races, and
General Clarksou, Chairman Carter and
their colleagues dropped political plotting
and joined the throng which did homage
to the Derby winner.

When the first two races were finished
and the Derby was on the tapis there was

‘ a general increment of attention through-
out the crowd and each candidate was
warmly cheered as he came down the
stretch for his preliminary gallop. Each
carried 122 pounds, as this is the only
Derby which does no handicapping.

The horses were sent away on equal
terms, but before a dozen strides had been
taken Lookout had taken the lead and
came sweeping around the turn and down
to the post with the low, easy stride-so
characteristic of his grand sire. Linger
was two lengths behind. l’lutus third and
the others bunched behind. The time was
2.539%, which was fast for the condition of
the track. The stake was worth $3,740 net.

Death of a Papal Candidate.
ROME, May 11.—Tomniaso Zigliora,
bishop of'Frascoti, and prefect of the Con-
gregation of Studies, is dead, aged 6C
years. He was raised to the cardinalate in
1879, and was regarded as a candidate for
‘ the papacy.

A Popular Poetess Proves Its Merit

 

Mrs. Mary F. Toms

The following is from a lady very well-
known' in Connecticut, being the author of
a very handsome volume 0f poems entitled
“ Sacred Gems” :

“ I can truly say that Hood’s Sarsaparilla is
all that it has ever been recommended to be. It
cannot be praised too highly. Having a
very troublesome fibroid tumor, besides seven
fatty tumors on my left arm, 1'1 find that for
feeling of deadness in the liinbs, constipation
and poor circulation of the blood, Hood’s Sarsa-
parilla has no ri1al. My blood was in very
poor condition, it seemed to be watery, and
when the skin was broken, only a very light red
water or matter would ooze out. Since resort-
ing to Hood’s Sarsaparilla, I have good

Rleh Red Blood
and do not bloat as I used to. Many good medli
clues are abused simply because they are not
given a fair trial. Hood’s Sarsaparilla has
proved its merit to me, as it will do all who take

CONVICT ‘R_OELE SHOT.

The Body of the Escaped Murderer Found
in the Hudson River.

SING SING, N. Y., May 11.—The body of
Frank W1 Roble, who, with Thomas Pal-
lister. escaped from the death house in
Sing Sing prison on April 20, was f0 und in
the Hudson river, opposite Rockland,
directly across the river from Sing Sing.
The body was found by three fishermen .

 

Vl‘hey towed the remains of the murderer

to the upper dock and immediately noti-
fied the prison officials.

State Detective Jackson and Principal
Keeper Connaughton at once repaired to
the spot and identified the body by means
of a picture and the prison shoes which
the dead murderer wore. The body was
very much decomposed, One of the fisher-
men says he thinks he saw another body
further down the river, but did not go
after it, as he had the body of Rohle in
tow. Searching parties are now trying to
find the body of Pallister, in the river.

\Vhen the body had been washed it was
found that R ohlc had been shot' in the
right side of the head, and the supposition
is that Pallister shot him.

s A coroner’s juiy decided that Rochl was
dead before he struck the 'water.

Russell Ridicules Our Philanthropy.

PARIS, May 11.—In the Behring sea
court yesterday Sir Charles Russell urged
that the method of sealing on the Priby—
loflt' islands was more destructive and more
cruel than pelagic sealing. He ridiculed
the professions of the United. States that
they were acting in this matter in a spirit
of humanity. Pelagic sealing, he said,
was due to the enormous tax imposed by
the United States upon the lessees of the
seal islands. He asked that all the mem-
bers of the tribunal rid their minds of
cant, and face the question" without lofty
talk of philanthropy.

Secretary Herbert Bmiqueted.

New YORK, May 11.—The rooms of the
Southern society, on West Twenty fifth
street. were handsomely decorated with

ciety. Among the guests were anumber
of admirals and captains of the vessels
which participated in the recent naval re-
view. A number of forrign countries were
also represented by their consuls.

man J. V. McMasters yesterday afternoon.
All of the defendants, through their at-
torneys Waived the preliminary hearing,
and gave bail for trial at court.

miral E. G. Howard and other oflicers oi
the Argentine cruiser Neuve de J 11110, by

partment. believes that it has unearthed
stupendous pension frauds. An attorney

addressed the assemblage on the philan-

association. The different booths and cot-
tages were crowded with invited guests.
Second to the French exhibit in the Fine
Ar ts building, the thousands of people at
the exposition seemed to concentrate in

the United States section, which was open

to the public. The American salons were
crowded all day, and nearly everybody
was interested' in the works of art suffi-
ciently to have a catalogue. There was
no hurrying through theD dozen American
salons alieady hung g, and the praise be-
stowed upon the w01ks of American
painters, many of them prize winners from
Paris and London exhibitions,1 was not un-
deserved. There are 2, 800 pieces in the
United States art exhibit, far exceeding in
number the contribution of France, Great
Britain, Germany and Italy. Chief Ives,
of the fine art department, felt proud of
the showing made by American painters
in oil and water colors, and that of the
engravers, etchers, sculptors and other
artists...

The special committee of the national
commission, which is investigating the
musical troubles, called on President Hig-
inbotham, and also questioned the council
of administration in his room regarding
the appointment of Theodore Thomas, his
relation to the dii actor and the power of
the commission to enforce his removal as
leader of the association orchestra. The
answers given the committee were not
such as to encourage a radical report, and
it is probable that the commissiOn will re-
ceive the finding and recommendation of
its committee to curtail the pow er of Mr
Thomas as to the exclusive use of certain
instruments, and if he does not like it he
can resign.

Director General Davis appeared before
the commission and answered questions
from the commissioners regarding the
rules and regulations of the exposition. In
referring to the statement that several ar-
ticles had been stolen from the different
buildings the director general said he had
no doubt it was true, as he considered the
police protection furnished by the Colum- -
bian guards utterly inadequate.

One of the Midway Plaisance novelties,
knownas the “Beauty Show,” was opened
to the public yesterday afternoon. It is
the exhibit of the International Dress and
Costume company. and consists of an
attractive collection of forty women, rep-
resentative of as ’many nationalities, and
all more or less passable types of feminine
beauty. costumed in' adazzling manner,
according to the dress worn in the coun-
tries the women are natives of. The
Chinese woman is very pretty, and shared
the admiration of. the crowd. with the
queen of the harem. ,

Mr. A. T. Goshorn, director general of
the Centennial exposition, addressed the
the fair commission at noon tOday in re-
gard to the rules and regulations of the
Philadelphia exhibition. Mr. Goshorn
spoke by invitation of the commissioners.

' Chairman Carter Ito-elected.

LOUISAILLE, May 11.—The Republican
national committee put a. temporary
quietus upon the proposition to change
the basis of representation in the next”
national convention. The basisof represen-
tation at the present time is four delegates
at large and from two each congressional
district. It was proposed to limit them to
four delegates at large and one delegate
for every 7,000 mi es. " This would mean
avirtual disfranchisement of several sec-.
tions of the south. The proposition was
tabled. Mr. Carter was unanimously re-
elected chairman of the national com-
mittee: and Joseph H. Manley permanent
secretary.
