TENNY WAS THE WINNER

LTT7 Wl iM Another King of the Turf Crowned Friday. The Great Brooklyn Handicap Run Off. Finest Field That Ever Faced a Starter. Thirty Thousand Peopla Witness the Event. General Review of the B porta of the Day. Gbatesisd, May 15. "What ia known as the legitimate racing season waa inaugurated in this state today -when the Brooklyn jockey club threw open its gates for a fourteen-day meeting. All winter long, through hail, sleet, mud, enow and ice, racing has been carried on in yew Jersey, and lovers of the thoroughbreds have anxiously awaited today, when they knew that they would see horse-racing under the most favorablo conditions. The program offering for the opening day was a grand one, fall of quality, and uch equine stars ns Kingston, Tenny, Prince Koyal, Burlington, Tea Tray, Senorita and hosta of others were down as probable starters in the different events. The feature of this grand program was the Brooklyn jockey club handicap, for which the very best horses in training were eligible to start. As early as 10 o'clock the crowd commenced to arrive at the Brooklyn track and from that time until 2 o'clock steam cars, boats, carriages, drays, and in fact all kindd of conveyances were used to transoort the immense throngs that were eager to see the equine battle of tho age. For a time it looked as though the pleasure of thia immense throng SO.000 or more would be eadly marred by rain, but about noon the sun phono in a faint, half-hearted way through tho haze and very one neaved a sigh of relief. With a dry track there was no question of a grand race, while if there was a sea of mud there was a possibility of an exhibition like Castaway made of his field last year. The heart of every sportsman reamed through the preceding events to the great handicap event which was placed fourth on the card. The conditions and the opening situation as to horse, rider, weight and cash chance are here given: The Brooklyn jockey club handicap for three-year-olde ami upward, $200 each, half for leit, or 50 if declared, tb club to add an amount necessary to make the pros value of the stake $20,000, of which the second aha.l re- . eeive $3,500, and the third $1,500; mile and a quarter.

The field that went to the pest was the best that ever faced a Btarter in thia country. As they went to the post each horse wa.4 loudly cheered and they all looked to be in the best of ehapo. Mr. Caldwell cautioned the boys about being on their good behavior and then there was a few momenta of intense anxiety accompanied by a silence that waa almost painful. Vhen the horses turned and faced Starter Caldwell the noise in the grand stand sank to a murmur, a bum of excited conversation, and all eves were turned toward the post. There wa9 a breakaway and hearts went pit-apat over th false alarm. Another breakaway and again the horses went back to the post. Finally they all got together in a close bunch and all well in motion. The starter, watching them closely, saw that he would never have them in as good order again, and like a strip of fire the red flag flashed through the air. Then a thunderous roar swept up from the grand stand. "They're o9T yelled thirty thousand voices, and to the muaic of these hoarse cries, the horses swept down to the stand with thundering hoofs. Men breathed hard and fast and women clapped their hands or waved their parasols. The great handicap race was on. The mighty struggle was in full swing and as far as the start was concerned every horse had received a fair chance. As they swept toward the etand the three-year-old Kupeell took the lead, running under a strong pull, and with Neliie B!y. Once Again and Santiago lapped on him, and Riley and King Thomas bringing up the rear. They ran in this order around the lower turn and those who had bet on Tenny commenced to get anxious, for the. little rwaybaek was running in the ruck. As they started up the stretch Santiago went up to KufBell's head and the two ran locked for a quarter, while the white and red of Burlington commenced to occupy a prominent position and Tenny, the favorite, also moved up. As they struck the upper turn they commenced to quicken and Russell fell back beaten, leaving h'antiago in front. He in turn gave way to Loantaka, who piloted the field in the stretch. "Now they're in the stretch," shouted the crowd, and then the race began in earnest. The jockeys were swaying to and fro on their horses and some of them were already plying whip and spur. Loantaka soon gave up and Tenny showed in front, closely pressed by Judge Morrow, who had been trailing for a mile, with Burlington, Eon, Prince Boyal and Tea Tray. Horses and jockeys both seemed to think that the crisis had arrived and all gathered themselves together for a final effort. Amid the flash of red and blue and gold and yellow could now be seen the gleaming black face of Fikey Barnes. It was a picture in ebony set in gaudy colors. The little jockey was riding as he never rode before, lie seemed to lift himself above his horse and try to push the great sway-back along a little faster. Down the stretch they were coming now. The foaming nostrils, the flashing eyes of the horses could been seen. Tenny, Tea Tray, Prince Koyal and Judge Morrow were all in a bunch, and the spectators field their breath. Then thirty thousand voices mingled in one long about. Barnes realized that the

Three-sixteenth? from the finish Barnes went to the whin and for the fraction of a second the favorite faltered. The cry, and a despairing one it was, went up, "Tenny beaten." It did look like it. But the game little sway-hack responded nobly, and with heaving fides and distended no3tri!es he came on like a piece of perfect mechanism, rapidly devouring ground at every stride-. The race waa not his vet, however, for Garrison wa working like a demon on Prince Royal, fairly lilting him over the ground, and Tea Tray was rapidly moving up from the rear. The excitement was intense. Hats, bonnets, handkerchiefs, umbrellas and paranoic were thrown into the air, and cries of "Tennv ! Tenny!" "Prince Royal win!" 'Come on Tea Tray!" were heard on all sides. It was a grand struggle, but. Tenny hold his antagonists s.fe, and bounding lue an India rubher ball passed the ti:iih two pood lengths in front of Prince Koyal, w ho beat Tea Tray a short head ior second money. The time, 2:10, was nothing out of tho common, but it was a grand race, and men, women and children, perfect Stranger to each other, shook, hands and swore that there was nothing in the world they could compare to a tirst-class hor.-e rnco.

ANOTHER MAFIA MUHDER. Whole Fnmlly Aaatsslnatetl on Account or a l.lrl. New York, May 13. Advices from near Carrients Argentine Itepnblic, give the details of a murder of a family of four by or der of the Mafia. They were Bicardo Monari, hia wife and two pons. They had incurred the enmity of Luigi So!azzi because they dhl not encourage hia attentions to L"onara Spacci, a niece of Monari's wife, who lived with him, and they had several quarrels. In February Moniri received a note signed "Iloberto Franconi, president of the Mafia,"' commanding him to give Ltonara to Solazzi under penalty of death. He again reluaed fcolazzi's demand for the crirl. On the night of March 8, while the family slept, six masked men armed with knives entered the houce and the elder Mouari waa etabbed and killed. The cries arout-ed the otlu rs, and in the fight that enued Solazzi and Monari and two sons were killed. The Mafia then put the bodies in sacks and threw them in the river, but they afterward floated and were found. Documents on Solazzi'ii body showed that he and hia companions were members of the Mafia.

GOV. II0VEY WONT PLAY

IF ROBERTS CAN'T PLAY WITH HIM. Tlie SonI of Napoleon Will Not Preside Ortr tho World's Fair ComuVelonera HecAuae Hobarta Can't lie Seer, tnry Studebaker Chosen. The first meeting of the Indiana commissioners of the world's fair was held Friday afternoon in the governor's reception roo n at the etato house, all being present except Mit3 V.'ilhelmina lieitz of KvansviMo, and John Lee of Crawfordsville. (iovernor Ilovey was chosen temporary chairman, and the Hon. F. J. Hayden of Fort Wayne temporary secretary. The f rpt business before the meeting was the formation of a permanent organization, and during this operation some httlo friction developed, whih demonstrated that the bitter feeling betwaen the rival candidates for the republican complimentary vote for senator last winter had not yet entirely died out. When the ballots for president were counted the following result was disclosed: llovey. 20; Clem Studebaker, 7; scattering, k Governor Ilovey was declared elected and in one of his usual speeches accepted the honor with thanks. For vice-president C'h.ir!es P. Stuart was eleeted without opposition. Then followed the election of secretary, which developed tlio litt'e bit of friction that marked the pr ceed ngt. and dampened the worthy governor's ambition. Two candidates wen placed in nominationWilliam T. Noble of this city, and "Col." William 1. Kobertn, the governor's defacto. The ballot result e ! in the election of Mr. Noble, who received 23 votes to 11 capt for the colonel and two scattering. The election of treasurer followed, F. J. llay-h-n of Fort Wayne being the unanimous choice of the meeting. Then occurred the awkward contretemps. When the nominations for president were made (iovernor llovey relinquished the chair, and after his little oratorical efl'ort accepting the honor conferred on him, retired to his private oflice. After the tlcction of a treasurer he returned to the chair, braced himself for an etlort and proceeded to resign his position ns president of the commission. He paid, in ellect, that when he accepted he presidency he did so with the undertdandir-g that the other oilices would le lieu by certain gentlemen whom he would prefer to hive associated with him. The elections had resulted ditierently from what he expected, and in consjquonoo he resigned the honor which had been conferred upon him. Dctwern a'l the lines of the governors eccond efl'ort might be read in italics that the governor wanted his own secretary, the colonel, on his official 6tair and that because the commission bad placed n Fairbanks man in the place, he was mad and proposed to take his little blue dishes and run home. Mr. Mnrtind.ile arose and in a brief address said that the commission had elected the governor to its presidency in good faith, because the n.emler desired him to serve and hoied he would reconsider his action, but if the governor persisted in his resignation tha board could only accept it and elect some one else. The governor persisted and Clem Studebaker of South Bend was unanimously chosen to fill the vacancy thus created. It was decided to postpone the election of the executive commissioner until the next meeting, three months hence, as then wus nothing at present for this officer to do, and bis election would only entail needless expense. The board then began the consideration of the ru es and regulations for its government, winch had be n heretofore drawn up and copies forwarded to the different members. With lomo amendments these were finally adopted and ordered printed, and, it then being nearly 5 o'clock, the meeting took a recess until 8 p. m. Tho evening session was called to order by President Studebaker and the minutes of the afternoon session rend. Ikdore they were approved, on the motion of Mr. Stuart, the secretary wan directed to omit the following se'.f-expianatory paragraph from the records : At thia juncture Governor Ilovey re'urned to the chair and withdrew from the presidency of (he hortrd, in he h-vl prerioasdy intimated that hi acceptance would be cent nsrent on the selection of a secretary to work, in conjuuetion wnh himself, it being understood tacitly th.it the governor wanted hia own secretary, Mr. Huberts.

After the appointment of the committees, before taking his ec.it, PresMent Studebaker spoke briefly to the members, warning them to be practical, earnest and tolerant in their work, ready to entertain suggestions and accept them when worthy, and to eiuk politics, personalties and everything else that would stand in the way of making Indiana's exhibit at the world's fair a grand success. By a unanimous vote the committees were then confirmed. On tho motion of Mr. Stuart it was decided that a warrant should be drawn on the treasury for Si.OUO to meet the various expenses Incident to the meeting. Judg Martindaie then moved that the bill of William B. Purford, for printing. postage, etc., amounting to between $40 and $"0, incurred during the last legisla ture during the pendency of the bill creating the cenmi-sion, be allowed. This provoked considerable discussion, a num ber of the members expressing the opin ion that, as this expense was incurred before the creation of the commission, it should not be held responsible for it. Judge Martindale said that either the commission or himself would have to

pay the bill an I as the board would never have been created except for this work, he thought the expenso should be allowed, and persisted in his motion. To quiet the waters, which were becoming turbulent, Mr. Hawkins moved to amend tho rules by having all bil's payable audited by the executive committee. Judge Martindale withdrew hia motion in favor of that of Mr. Hawkins, which prevai ed. As the commission would not be in session during the meeting of the executive board, the action of which muet be approved by the commission, on tbo mo-

tion of Judge Martindale the executive bord was authorized to allow the secretary a salary of $lo0 per month, and on the motion of Mr. Stuart it was authorized to allow the Purford bill presented by Judje Martindale. Prof. Campbell of Crawfordsville then Introduced the following resolution which was adopted: Peso ved, That the board reeonlres especially the power of tbe press and hereby requeets the newspapers and other publications in Indiana earnestly to unite with the eommiv aion in endeavoring to see ire a representative exhibit of the retourcjs and condition of the atate. In order to save as much expense as possible and because of the great benefit the fair would be to railroads it was decided to request them to issue trip passes to the commissioners between their homes and this city to be used when atteudiug met tings. Some ireneral discussion followed in tb9 interests of the work of the committee, after which the board adjourned.

Seventy first-st. and connect all euburban towns with New York, is no longer an enterprise of the future. The commissioners and directors are now in a position to talk definitely upon the task of beginning work, and they expect to begin constructing the bridge approaches by September. The necessary capital, $100,nO0,(KiO, has been subscribed by a syndicate of capitalists of this city and New Jersey, and the New Jer sey commission will meet next week to effect a permanent organization. When this has been done the company will be incorporated under the laws of both New York and New Jersey. Te work of construction will then immedi ately be beguu. Mr. Charles Swan, tho secretary of the New York commission. whoso olEco is at 214 Broad way, slid yesterday, speaking of the bridge in con nection with the proposed ranid trans t route, that the system when finished would be the mrwt coinniete in the world.

C, May 17. Several negroes having been beard making threats to attack the jail last night and release Kit Hugcins, tho driver of an omnibus which ran over and killed a little white boy yesterday, Sheriff Stedman, with twenty armed special deputies, took charge of the jail and the police force of the city issued special instructions to be on tbe alert. By 10 o'clock crowds of negroes began assembling near the jaiL Chief of Police Hall, with a detachment of police, went to the scene to disperse them. They moved from one point but quickly reassembled. This continued for more than two hours, but there was no actual vioVnce and no feature of special interest until between 1 and 3 o'clock. Then tho negroes assemb ed in fore within fifty yards of the jail. Mayor Ilicaud, after consultation with a number of citizens, then ordered the military alarm to be sounded from the fire bells. This was done and the members of the Wilmington light Infantry came rushing to their armory from alt parts of the city. This had the desired effect. As soon as the first tap of the alarm bells was heard the negroes began to disperse. Twelve or fifteen of them were arrested by the police and by 3 a. m. everything whs quiet. The armory bein? within two hundred feet of the ja;l the light infantry were not ordered out but were underarms all niaht. It was ascertained on searching the arrested neirces that nearly every one carried a pistol, A MODERN JOSEPH. Peter Gallagher Cowhides a Young Lad 7 ait WelUton, (I. Wellston.

xNEW YORK OUT-OF-DOORS.

THE SOFT WIND BRINGS SENTIMENT. Bab's" Portralta of New York Life Seen From tho Walk All Is Not Gold That Glitters Fads For tba Wealthy. New York, May 15. Special. Every body in New York is buying flowers. Everybody has a rose or a pink in his or her buttonhole or a branch of lilacs in his or her hand. The perfume of tbe llowers brings back to everybody that country which is God's own, and which man who could on'y take bricks and build houses could not have made. It makes every human being want to walk across tbe grass and feel the soft ground under tho feet, notwithstanding the care with which the eign of "keep off the grass" is put everywhere. Everybody wants to get out into the parks, where they can get great mouthfuls of sweet, freah air, and oh, you people who are fortunate enough not to bo dwellers in great cities these spring time days, pleaee don't forget not only the poor, but jnst remember that to the sick and the lonely a rose or a branch of lilacs will bring a happy time; a time maybe, of remin.scences, but still the perfume of the flower w ill carrv a joy with it wherever it go; s. Sentimentality? Well, you can't blame a woman for being a bit sentimental these spring days, when the sun is so bright and the flowers are so sweet. And what is a woman without sentiment, anyway? You wouldn't like her, and nobody ei.se would. But. to be rjuite honest, I think men have much more sentiment than women. The other day I wss str.ndine on the corner, and a very fine turn-out went by. A woman with marvelous, glossy, black hair and great dark eyes, beautifully dressed, and looking the embodiment of happiness, smiled and bowed to me, and jui ?t then I heard a voice near me say: "I wish I were that wo nat:." I looked around, and there stood a sweet looking, dainty little creature, quite as attractive in her simple frock as was madame in her gorgeou.-ness. For all the girl saw was the prancing steeds, the beautiful gown, the richness of lace and the loveliness of si.k. She couldn't see far enough in the deep eyes to discover the sadness and disappointment that lay therein. And 1 wondered what that girl would think, or if bho wouldn't change her wish, if she kn-w exactly that woman's life, This is part of it. She is the wife of a very rich man, and today if she wants five dollars she has to pet it on one of her accounts and have them charge it to frills and furbelows. She doesn't know what it means to have money to spend. She can give her name for an enormous amount to a charity and ber husband will send a check; she cm buy the bett of everything in New York or Paris and the bills will be paid, but she cannot have any money to handle. And why? Because her people are poor, her husband does not like them, and he will not permit her to give one cent to them. A year ago, her brother, a young boy, did as many another boy has done, got into some trouble, and $2,000 were required to get him out of it. To be quite plain, he had forged a man's name, nud this mau said: "If you will get the money I will save you from shame, and because I believe you have suffered for this, I will keep you in my em ploy, ltie boy s future depended on his getting that money. The man knew the boy had a rich sister, and it never entered his head that ehe would not easily and gladly give ber brother the $2,(XX). Her brother went to her and told her the story, and she sad: "Charlie, what can I do? You know I never have a cent." And then he told her how much depended on it, and she said: "I'll get you that money in some way." And this is how she did it: She took the diamond necklace that had been one of ber wedding presents, and which had coat nearly $10,000, and she carried it to a pawnbroker, where she pot $-',000 on it. Since that time she has never been able to get the amount of money needed to get it out, and it's only by saving and pinching that she has enough to pay the interest on it. That she may never have to wear P, she has assumed a fashion that yery much pleases her husband. She wears no jewel whatever except a tiny diamond heart ttiat he gave ber, and he is convinced that she shows marvelous taste in refusine to exhibit her diamonds, pear's, rubies and emeralds, as do the climbers in society, for aa everybody knows she has them she can afford not to wear theiu. At one time she wan very ill, although she was never quite out of her mind. When the time camo around for the interest to be paid, fdie sent for a friend, confided her secret to her, and in this way it wus paid, the necklace wa3 saved, and the husband is et ill ignorant. Of course, some day he will find out the secret, and, do you know, 1 think sho would be a wi?e woman if ehe would tell him now? Have the explosion at once, and not live in a state of nervous dread. You laugh at this! You think you have read such things in novels; and you know that usually they are the result of a good imagination. Prooably. But in this case the truth is told, and i! I were before the Judge of us ail, I could hold up my right hand and affirm it. Treatise I never do swear, the drop of Quaker blood in me makiug me think that my solemn word of honor is worth morn than an oath. If I would lie when I Paid I told that, I would also lie under oath. Speaking of diamonds reminds me that the latent fad, when my lady is giving a dove luncheon, is to have a jewel table in her boudoir. This table has richly carved legs, while the upper part enframed in what looks like gold, is of thick glass, boxlike in design, the top lifts up, an 1 on the bottom is a velvet cushion, upon which all the jewels repose. After they are taken from their cases and Fpread out. as my lady desire?, then the lid is locked (for my lady knows the ways of the society woman), and her special friends are permitted to look upon the gems when they are red, white, biue, or whatever their color may be. Of conr?- each must have a history, and the clever hostess is lacking in cleverne-s is she cannot invent one for each jewel. One woman who prides herself on her emeralds has them reposing on a lavender velvet pad, aud round about them is a rosarv of golden brown wood, each bead of whieh is aa large as a hickory nut. This is the one gotten at Lourdea, and, after detailing the history of the gems, she funnily enough refers to this rosary by saying: "Thai's tho favorite rosary of the French women ; they like to take it to bed with them, and say their prayers there, as the beads are eo big they do not slip out of their hands in the dark." A religious collection of medals, rosaries, crucifixes and reliquaries may be displayed in the came way as are the jewels, that is in a jewel table. One collectiou shows rosaries mde of pearls, garnets, malachites, aquamarine, and curious carved woods, while th crucifixes are worth much more than their weight in gold because they have ail been carved by famous 'masters. A reliquary that is very beautiful is a gold one, rococo in style and thickly set with turquoises and pearls. Another one ia of ail ver, flat in shape and having all tbe emblcraa of the passion etched

upon it in gold. These were collected by a woman because of the religious association, but as the years have gone by famous collectors have informed her that in willing the contents of her jewel table there will not only be a question of sentiment, but a laryo money value will attach itself to them. The long, thick gol 1 chains that at one time wero so very fashionable now have a resurrection in the form of an equally long, thin gjld chain. It is a fashion that has come to us from Paris, and there the ladies of the lake 6U-pen 1 on them a monocle with a narrow gold frame, and this they stick careles-ly in the side pocket of their jackets. The lady of the Faubourg, in place ot the monocle, has on the f nd of her chain a tiny gold purse in which she is supposed to carrv the alms which she, distributes to tbe worthy poor. As the purse U extremely small, it would seem that the worthy i-oor do not get all they deserve. Here, a few omen are suspending the gold lorgnettes from the narrow chain, but these are much out of placo, as they look too heavy for the thin, tine links, and really only tho monocle or the tiuy purse is proper. Somebody wrote and aked me, "What is a society man? Can be be compared to a gentleman? Won't . you, from your world of wisdom, give this useless creature Borne advice?" The remark is eo complimentary that vanity forces ina to answer it. The society man must, first of all, be a gentleman in manner and speech

or tho name is misapplied. He is the man i who knows how to speak properly to all women, and no matter what hia own private life may be he never says anything to a young girl that will causo her to blush, or to an older one that w ill make her think less of herself or of him. If he talks in a very iree way to a woman tho chances are ten to one that she ha", by the word, look or action invited this freedom of speech, and so she cannot complain. The society man is the one who makes life go smoothly, who does not ask ef'er people who died six months ago, who does not trot out family skeletons and think it funny to induce theiu to make each separate bona rattle and causo innocent people to sui.'er agonies. The society mau should have a good memory, a courteous manner, and should control pleasant words. The socalled fast young man is as far from being a society man as a nectarine is from a green persimmon. He is inclined to flaunt bis fastness in your f.ice nud he should be piveu tbe libeity to exit from every house where there are young girls, until he haa learned the good n antur?, like icint:, must cover all kinds of cake offered to society for its approLat on. The society man may be stupid, he may be tiresome, but he is not u-e'.es; be shows the beauty of courtesy, and he is a living exemplification of the golden ru'e, always acting to you a be wishes you to act to him, with uuswerving respect. The true society man is found at his beet among southern gentlemen of tha old school. His manner may be stupid, but it is never failing in politeness. His speech may seem studiod, but the words used are English, and tbe s ntencea are such that they give ph asure to tho listener. That tvp- of tho society man make women to respect themselves, men to resnect women, children to honor and obey their parents, and servauts to respect and

give proper duty to their masters. The but that will be done tomorrow a soon a real 6ociety man makes civilization, and I the excitement subdues some.

May li Thia city euf. fered a accond visitation from the flamea thia afternoon. The fire started at 6:3) o'clock in the Launkewcli hotel barn, an J aile Iby a strong wind swept acrcai tbo city. Twenty-two blockt were devastated aa if swept by a hurricane of re. Tbe d0.GO0 court-house was guttaJ, but its public documents were saved. Prisoners in the county jail, which occupied tbe basement of the court-Lome, were liberated. Several cows and horse were burued, and a little child, who waa bleeping ia the Lannkevell tarns, where the fire atarted, ia missing. Pv 9 o'clock the fire had reached the southern district of the city, where there is more epitee between the houses, and the firemen auo ceeded in considerably reducing farther pros re is of the flanes. Two Grand Rapidi engines were pat to work as aoon as they arrived. Toi i;ht twentj blocks of buaineaa houses and dwellinga are in smoldering ruins.

Li eh t from the f monllering ruins of yesterday's fir illumiuated tbo heavens for miles around until the early hours of this morning. Firemen continued to battle the flames till daylight, when they were practically extinguished. Men, women tnd children continued to search in the neighborhood of the recent happy homes for what might have escaped lire and water. People whose homes were saved stood in their doors and welcomed the rich and poor alike, proti jing quarters until others could be secured. Ihtre was open-hearted sympathy on every hand and nenrly a 1 th homeless were provided with shelter. A few homeless people slept in tents. As j yet there is no general movement looking to the raising of funds for the digressed. I Dal! a Chronirfc has started a relief fund for the destitute and sums forwarded to that paper will be acknowledged and turned over to a relief committee to be expended among the destitute. One thing over which all people rejoice is that no human lives were lost. A large number of hornes, cows, etc., which were in barns couid not be saved. Several explosions occurred in the Imrnins buildinss. but no one was in- : . . r". . ... ju red, although several hremen had their I hands and faces so seriously scorched that . a a a . thev had to be removed. Today thoae fam'lies, who were iut outside th" burned district and who had to move their goods, are busy moving back. It is simply impossible to give any accurate figures on lossss and insurance, as the figures are not to be compiled. Insurance men av the total los w'l.i be easily $503,00;) and the insurance S100.000. The latest estimate places the loss at nearly S7."0,000 with insurance for about one-third that amount.
