WON BY LAZZAK0NE

THE LATOXIA DERBY EASILY CAPTURED II V THE FAVORITE. Better on FluU Welhed" Urook lyn Derby Taken by Dobbin St. LouIm Prize Won by Service. CINCINNATI, May 24. The Latonli spring meeting opened very auspicioudy 'before a crowd of eight thousand spectators under a fair sky. The track was deep with mud and full of puddles, and fast time was Impos3iblr. The card was a poor one, bat nevertheless proved very satisfactory to the talent, as four strong favorites, one second and one third choice proved equal to the mud and won. The Derby, worth $7,fG0, cf which I6,5oj went to the winner. was taken by Lazzarone in easy style. There were originally six horses entered, but Sigurd and Noah were scratched, leav ing only four horses to face th flag. After ten minutes fiddling about at the post starter Pettigill dropped the flag to a straggling start, Lazzarone leading by -a length. Pearl Song second, two lengths be fore Tupto, who was half a length bsfore Selika. Before the first quarter was passed all four horses were abreast, hardly half a length separating the last horse from the leader. Passing the stand Pearl Song led the bunch by a neck, followed by Lazzirone with his mouth wide open under a doub'e wrap. Entering the quarter Lazzarone darted into the lead and headed th2 sroup to the mile, where Williams, on Pearl Song, rode desperately to citch the lealer; but Lazzarone showed no s'gns of exhaustion. and swept Into the stretch two lengths in front of Pearl Song. The other horses were manifestly out of the race, and staggered through the mire dozen lengths behind Pearl Song, who was urged forward under whip and spur, but Lazzarone, without the least exertion, kept the lead and gilloped under the wire two open lengths ahead of Pearl Song. Selika, twenty lengths beilnd. took third money, while Tupto was beaten by a furlong. There were several sensations during the day. For th2 first time in the history or the track a "welsher" appeared. On the slate of the Iroquois Club book, after the third racs, appeared a notice: "All bets against this book will be adjusted to-mor-. row." The bookmaker and his staff had fled, no one knows where. The name of the bookmaker is not even known. The book la!d.a good price against r.asn, tne winner of the third race, and had not the money to pay its losses, which, however. are very smau. not over ju. na ijiws said that every , attempt would be made to arrest the owner of the book, and tnat ths hrlders of the winning tickets wouia be paid after the last race.

For five days the Gravesend track, has been a sea , of mud, and the three thousand persons who were there .to-day were thoroughly uncomfortable In the driving rain. It was a most dispiriting day, and even the attraction of the Brooklyn Derby could not induce a large attendance. The chief event was the derby and of the six colors on the card St. Maxim and Hornpipe declined the issue. There was a wild plunge on Sir Excess, and he was quickly made the favorite, with Assignee second choice. Dobbins was neglecttd, except by those who thought he was not up to his proper form In his other races, and at the close Assignee and Sir Excess were about equally favored. The start was prompt and good and Assignee toot the lead with Dobbins racing alongside him. Excess wa3 getting the mud behind him and Sleight of Hand was soon completely out of It. As the turn In the stretch was reached Sir Excess gave It up and then Dobbins took a few long strides and was soon in the lead. From that time on it was a procession and Dobbln3 won In a common canter from Assignee, with Sir Excess beaten off. In the Clover stake for fillies.

HENRY AND HIS CRIME THE LATEST PARIS ANARCHIST IS CHIEF OF THEM ALL. A 31an of Intellect nml Education, but AVIiohc Mind Wn OverNhmlowed vrlth Social Brooding;. ' New York Herald. Emile Henry, who was guillotined In front of the Roquette prison in Paris, was the son of a colonel of the commune. His father. when the Versailles troops entered Paris, managed to escape to Spain, where his wife gave birth to two sons. One of these was the prisoner, who, when his parents, in 1S82, were allowed to return to Paris by amnesty, was sent to a good school. He presented himself as a candidate for ths Ecole Polytechnlque, but failed to pass the second part of the examination, so he entered the employment of an engineer, who took him to Venice. There he remained three months and then returned to Paris, where he obtained a situation at 23 francs a month. According to his own account he soon became a zealous propagator of An archist doctrines, was arrested and lost hU place. That was in 1&32, and between that period and the date of the Cafe Terminus explosion Henry spent some time in London. On Dec. 20 he hired a room in Pari3 In the name. of Louis Dubois and began to ma nipulate picric acid. When his bomb ready he left his lodgings, carrying him the explosive, a revolver loaded was with with Jagged bulleu and a poisoned dagger. On the evening of Feb. 12 he looked Into de the but Blgnon's restaurant on the Avenue rOpera, Into the Cafe American and Cafe de la Palx. on the boulevards, not seeing a sufficient number of people in these establishments he went on to the Cafe Terminus. He found the place full of people, who were listening to a concert. After drinking two glasses of beer he applied a lighted cigar to the fuse of the bomb, then flung the explosive toward the orchestra. In a few seconds the bomb burst and Henry rushed out of the cafe. pursued by two waiters. A policeman who was on duty In the Rue Saint Lazare and a railway porter joined in the pursuit, and Henry was caught at the corner of the Rue de Havre and the Rue d'Isly. He fired at the policeman and wound sd him severely, but was finally brought to bay. The explosion caused the death cf one person and serious injury to several others. ON TRIAL FOR HIS LIFE. After the usual Investigation and examination before a Judge d'instruction, Henry was committed for trial, and on April 27 was brought before the Cour d' Assises of the Seine and a Jury. The following description of the prisoner as he appeared on the opening of his trial was given at the time in tne European edition of the .llerald: Henry, short, slight and fair, stepped calmly into the dock, apparently unconscious of the sensation caused by his entrance. His determined face, to which a peculiar sternness Is given by his high forehead, firm, straight nose and short, thin upper lip, the cruel expression of which is scarcely concealed by his budding mustache, betrayed no signs of emotion as his keen eye glanced round the court and rested for a moment on a table on which were displayed the pieces a conviction. He listened with a bored expression, varied from time to time by a cynical smile, to the reading of the long Indictment and the calling over of the list of witnesses, and then braced himself up for an encounter of wits with the presiding judge." Those who are familiar with French criminal procedure will remember that a trial opens with an examination of the prisoner by the presiding Judge, whose duty it is to secure, if possible, a confession of the crime or to lead the accused Into damaging admissions or contradictions. Judge Pottier found no trouble with Henry, who avowed all that he had done with no little self-glorification. "I chose the Terminus' he said, "because It is a cafe frequented by bourgeois. I had al first intended to throw the bomb somewhere else, but there were not enough people at Blgnon's, in the Rue de la Paix, so i went on to tne Terminus." . After describing how he waited until the place became lull, because he 'wanted to mike as many victims as possible, he admitted that he had attempted to escape alter throwing the bomb, adding, T expected to get away through the cross tr00t which I thouKht 1 could reach easily enough. Next day ! should have bernn nnln " He expressed regret at not having made a more desperate 'resistance when arrested, and explained his possession of the poisoned brwr bv skvine that he had prepared it . v-.ar nroviouslv in order to stab a pre tonriofi Anarchist who had turned informer and sent a comrade to prison. Henry did nr.t hpsitntp to admit that he meant to kill anH nnt mprpiv to wound, and that he had rrf his bomb with that object in view. "You admit that you wished to kill the customers at the Cafe Terminus, Etlenne, Maurice and the policeman Poisson? "I meant to kill. all who opposed my es rarw " "You Intended to destroy the building of the Terminus.'" I don't care a snap for the building." "Verv srood: but you Intended to strike Innocent people?" "The bourgeois are never innoceni. DES BONS-ENFANTS EXPLOSIGV . ; One portion of the indictment' accused Henry of being the author of the "explosion J In November, 1SD3, In the police station i of, the Rue des Bons-Enfants. The bomb was placed outside the offices cf the Carmaux Mines Company on the Avenue de l'Opera. Thence it was removed by a messenger named Garln, who gave It to Fomorln and iteaux, two policemen, and the three perfcons went together to the local commissary's oilice in the Rue des Bons-Enfants. The bomb, when placed on a table immediately exploded, and five persons in all lost their lives. On the day of the explosion Emile Henry was absent for a few hours in the morning from hi3 place of employment. Two days after he went to Ixmdon. The prisoner also confessed that he was guilty of this outrage. The examination closed with the following dialogue between the Judge and the prisoner: "Where did you live from 12 to 1SX?" "It is not my business to tell you." "Beware how you remain silent." "It's all one to me. I know that I shall be sentenced to death. Besides. I need nut answer you. You are not a Juge d'instruc tion." "1'ou are accused, and it is my duty to question you." . I do not recognize your Justice. I am glad of what I have done." "You do not recognize Justice. Unfortunately for you you are in lis hands." I know it." The trial was full of striking Incidents. One witness, a doctor, who had known Henry's father and who expressed the opinion that the prisoner was crazy insane, was interrupted as follows: "I am not' crazy. I thank you for coming to try to save my head. But my head does not need to be saved. I am perfectly sane. You spoke of typhoid fever, but I carried off all my school successes after my 111ne?s, which proves that ray brain was not affected. You say that my father died of

cerebral congestion, but you know that It was an accident caused by mercurial vapors he had inhaled in his factory.. He cannot, therefore, have transmitted anything to me by heredity. I repeat that I am not mad. 1 am quite sane. Once more I thank the doctor, but I assume the full responsibility of what I have done." The trial lasted two days, and closed with a long, well-delivered address by Henry to the jury'. Tnis defense of his conduct, which he had written while in prison and had learned by heart, is perhaps the most terribly crushing answer that has yet been made to those believers In moral progress by means of enlarged educational facilities who have produced a g?neration of men that cannot live by their brains and yet are too proud, too rebellious or too selfindulgent to live by their hands. - . Emile Henry, the Ideal who has thrown Ravachol and Vaillant into the shade by adding, to that hatred of the social order which he had in common with them, tne ad vantages that belong to superior rr.entil gifts and nigner ecucation, was. until ne had to face the necessity of working for his bread, quite an exemplary youth, lie was one of those who take advantage of all the educational opportunities which the republic oilers to poor but clever boys. The idea that society was robbing him grew rapidly under the influence if the revolutionary theories which began to have a charm for him. He could not accept with patience the disillusions which the realities of life brought him. He said to the jury: "I have been told that all doors were thrown wide open to the Intelligent and energetic. hr xp-rnc showed me that only the cynical and the rrroveling obtained the good places at th? banquet." He acknowledged with perfect candor that the kind of education he had received had helped to make him a materialist and atheist. His studies, ne said, had made him gradually familiar with th play of natural forces and had taught him that "religious and authoritative morality was destined to disappear." "What, then." he asked, "was to be the new, morality which, In harmony with the laws of nature, would regenerate the old world and bring forth a happy humanity?" DANGEROUS TYPE OF CRIMINAL He Js undoubtedly the most dangerous type of criminal that has yet appeared one; too.whose example appears to ba highly contagious. M. Paul de Cassagnac, commenting upon the verdict, said: "This trial, by its publicity alone, will do more evil than all the revolutionary' and all the anarchical preaching in several yeirs." Journals could do . Henry's address to the all the more mischievous ble ability shown In It. tenso. It has gone into Jury Is rendered by the remarkaPubllshed in exmany thousands of hands, and it is likely to have a de plorable influence upon many weak or morbid brains. This will be Increased by th? disdainful and unfaltering attitude cf the prisoner throughout the proceedings. Anarchists have some reason to laucn at recent legislation directed against the prsss. when all the papers' become agents of the!r propaganda under the pretext of satisfying public curiosity respecting the proceedings of a trial. Such a speech left his lawyer but little to say in his defense. He did his best to paint his client as a mystic, a dreamer, the victim of hereditary' morbid trndencies, but the impression the prisoner had made on the Jury was not to be destroyed. The Jury were only three-quirters of an hour in finding, a verdict of guilty without extenuating circumstances. S:ntence of death was duly pronounced, and Henry was removed from the dock. As this was being done he shouted: "Courage, comrades! Lon? live anarchy!" To his guards he said as they were l?adin him down stairs to the Conclergerie: "Well, they have been plucky, the Jury. They are good sort of people For bourgeofs thev have not le:n afraid, and I like them all the better for it." He was soon sfely lodged in the double cell No. 1. -which had ben occupied by Pranzinl. Prado. Vaillant and other notorious criminal. Her3 he was Joined by th director of the prison, who found him smoclng a clearette. "You must ba tired ani hungry, Henry," he said. "No, I'm not tired, and not very hungry, tut I'm fiirsty enough," he replied, and he turnel ty th; table on which his dinner had been laid a much better dinner than he had had of late. "What a feast." he exclaimed. "What a pity that I'm not hungry. 'TIs not excitement that has spoilt my ap?etl:e, though, and I'll mak? up w'th the wine. Your health. M. le Directeur." Henry, in the course of his address to the jurv, quoted some phrases from M. Emile Zola's "Germinal." in which Souvarlne. the Nihilist, declares all theorizing regarding the future to be criminal because it prevents destruction pure and simple and Intel feres with the march of revolution. M. Zola being thus mis en cause by the Anarchist, was called upon by the representative of a Paris journal, to whom the great novelist stated tl.i.t he had followed wltn the greatest attention the trial of Emile Henry. The character of the condemned man, he said, did not in any way appeal to him; he was much too cold, too full of vanity and not sufficiently human. While statin? that he regarded a social upheaval as inevitable. M. Zola reprobates propaganda by deed. The words quoted In the dock by Henry are not the words of the author of "Germinal," but are a quotation from Bakounine. the Russian Nihilist, the founder of latter day nihilism. When writing "Germinal" M. Zola surrounded himself with everything tending to throw llsht on nihilism and naturally made a profound study of Bakounlne, who in many points servod as the original of Souvarlne in the novel. The question of socialism Interests M. Zola profoundly. For more than ten years he has been haunted unceasingly by the idea of the formidable liquidation of the social crisis which will sweep off everythingsociety, institutions, morals, politics and religion. "In two or three years from now," added M. Zola, "I will apply myself to the task and will strike the social balance sheet of the century. This book, which will be entitled "Paris," will contain much about anarchy. I am already collecting all the documents regarding it. I have thus accumulated everything that rras been published on this question for the ast three or four years." TIUXIDAD'S PITCH LAKE, Ah Seen by a Seleiitlfle Sinn Who Him InveMtlnteil ltn SlynterleM. Rochester Herald. At a mectlnpr of the Academy of Science, last evening1, Adelbert Cronise read a paper describing- the peculiarities of that famous and mysteriou? creation from the laboratory of nature. Pitch lake, on the Island of Trinidad. Mr. Cronise gave the results of personal investigation of the subject during a recent vl?it to the island. - The Pitch lake of Trinidad is not only a great natural curiosity, but a.s the source of our Trinidad asphalt It 1.- a place of scientific ar.d conirnrclal Interest.

The island is separted from South America by the Half of Paria. and La Urea, the point at vhlch we land to reach Pitch lake, is on the? w-st ride of the island oposite the easterly coast of Venezuela. From La Prea a walk of a mile over a made asphalt ro.nd through junkie and forest leadj up to the lake, which is VM feet above the sea, the land sloping up to It from the three sides.

Such a motion would account for the roots, leaves and bits of wool of comparative recent vegetation which are constantly being brought to the surface. Th motion Is

Increasing toward the center of the lake. Scattered about are a few patches of shallow earth, coveted with bushes and small trees. The pitch is of a brow nIsh-b!ack color and hard to the toueh.
