SCHRADT WRITES THAT ELECTRICITY I8 A SUCCESSFUL EXECUTIONER—DR, SPITZKA CRIT- ICISED FOR TUMNING OFF THE CURRENT TOO 8008 —DESCRIPTIONS OF THE EXECUTION, Opinions differ in regard to the success of the electricision of Kemmler. The following is s copy of an editorial which Dr. George F Shrady, editor of the Medical Record of New York city, telegraphed last night to that journal: “The lengthened agony of suspense regarding the efficiency of electricity as a means of exe- cuting criminals has been finally terminated in the legal killing of Kemmler. As was reason- ably anticipated death was instantaneous, and so far as can be judged, the unfortunate sub- ject of the experiment died without pain, The spectacle presented was, however, by no means | edifying to sach as hope for improvements of old methods, Although science has triumphed, the question of the humanity of the act is still ab open one, The experience in the Kemmler case, in spite of all the precautions taken, have shown many ditficulties in the way of # general adop- ion of the method. It is far from simple in tion. It requires elaborate and care- paration; it multiplies machinery, which, ut expert manipulation, is lable to fail ts working and bring about disastrous re- ts; 1t may be a source of danger to the exe- nd spectators: it increases the ex- ons; but, worse than all, in the tion of the victim there is in a few seconds an amount of horror and suspense which holds no com- parison with any other forms of rapid demoli- tion save those of being thrust into the muzzle ¢ « loaded cannon or tied toa dynamite bomb. physical, humanitarian and judicial s the time is ripe for its considera- tion. We venture to predict that public ovin- ion will soon banish the death chair asit has done the rope, and that imprisonment for hfe will be the only proper punishment meted to a is ts, indeed, th ational h science, justice igion can consistently recommend. The death chair will et be the altar irom which this doctrine will preached.” THE CURRENT STOPPED TOO 800%. Dr. C. M. Daniels of Buffalo, who later in the day helped Deputy Coroner Jenkins per- form the autopsy, declared when he reached the hotel, after viewing the execution, that the failure was due wholly to Dr. Spitzka. ‘This statement was made in no measured terms “T he execution would have been a success,” he announced, “if Dr. Spitzka had allowed the current to remain on long enough in the first place. As it was, he shut it off before it had done its work, and natural ictim revived somewhat. In the first pl rden Durston was nervous, extreny nervous, The con- trast between him and his victim as the two walked into the execution room was very marked. When Durston tried to affix the straps bis hands trembled and Kemmler said: “Now don’t be in a hurry, Durston; there's lots of time and we want to do this thing right. I don’t want to take any chances, you know.’ “Kemmler was remarkably cool. The war- den szid good-bye to him, and waved his hand atthe same time, and we beurd a click and saw Kemmler become rigid. 1 d the period with my stop watch, It was exactly fifteen second: own hands. to have the c too short a tim Dr. Spitzka, Dr. Spitzka had things in his washe who gave the order stopped. I thought it was e all thought so except The current was ent off at his order, and the body relaxed. Dr. Spitzka’s face wore a satisfied expression. He was sure Kemmier was killed and turned to congratu- late the warden. Tien followed the hortible spectacle of Kemmler’s chokes am gasps and killed and turned to congratu- n. Then followed the horrible late the wa spectacle of Kemmler’s chokes and gasps and struggles. «There might have been a couple of minutes delay before the current was turued on again, nd during that time all gathered around the chair. ‘Then Dr. Spitzka ordered the head electrode strapped on again and the current turued on. This time the current was left epen four minutes aud ahaif, Kemmler's shoulders were drawn up and his back and abdomen were lifted involuntarily, that invol- untary action that men always make when under a tremendous nervous pressure, The movement raised the base of his spine from the lower electrode, an are light was formed Detween the ele :;-ode and his person, and the result was a horrible odor of roasting flesh, and the room was filled with fumes.” THE FIRST SHOCK DID NOT KILL. “Do you think,” asked the reporter, “that the first shock killed him and the contortions of bis body were the result of relaxed nervous ection, or was he still living when the current was turned on the second time?” “The first shock did not kill him,” said Dr. Daniels, gravely aud decidediy. “Iam fully satisfied that he was still alive when the cur- rent was turned on for the second time.” “Was he unconscious?” d that he lost conscious- jock and that he did not est degree from that or the succeeding shock, notwitustanding the fright- tul contortions of his box id Dr. Daniels. ‘this particular ution was not, of course, for r was not killed instantly. The fact does not brand electrical execution as a failure, however, for this execution has been attended by very unfortunate circumstances, Ite result, I much fear, will be to prejudice the ablic against electrical execution. The pub- ie will not thoroughly understand the reasons why this experiment resulted as it did, and willbe apt to unreasonably and unjustly de- nounce execution by electricity generally «But tell me why there is not a sample case of what can be expecied in electricity as an executioner,” said the reporter. “Well,” said Dr. Daniel, after the execu- tion we found that the bighest tension that the volt motor bad registered was less than 1,300 volta Nobody knew that at the time but Dr. Spitzka, and he is responsible for risking th. kuliug with so small a voltage. Every one ¢ pected that there would be no attempt made to kill the man with lees than 1,300 volts. That voltage, I believe, would have accomplished the purpose and would have brought about a different issne than the present and established electricity bigh in public favor as an exe tioner. Then, again, every one was aston- ished when Dr. Spitzka gave the order to shut otf the current after only eighteen seconds. It was supposed that he would have left it on twice that length of time. Indeed I am con- vinced that even with only 1.300 volts Kemmler would have been killed today without any of the frightful scenes we witnessed had Dr. Spitzka only left the current on for thirty sec- oadsa I told that to Dr. Spitzka, and he alone fs responsible for the outcome of the affair.” BELIEVES IT WAS No TEST. Dr. Carlos FP. MacDonald did not talk volum- fuously after the execution, but what he said was pithy and to the point. He held, with Dr. Daniels, that this execution was no test of elec- tricity as a public executioner. “No,” said he, “the exe might have been, and as was expected. It was to learn the » meters were in another room, voltage. end it proved impossible to secure any val- uable official statement on the subject from the warden, Of course, this thing was not a matter of necessity, butat the same time it was & matier of exceeding interest. I very mueh regret that the certainty and rapidity of death was not as fully den strated as was ex- pected. ularttues im the working of the machinery and procedure generally by the nervousness of those in charge of the apparatus. ‘They were jace and naturs timid by the importance end novelty of their positions.” “De you think that Kemmler was dead or alive after the first shock, or were his struggles due to post mortem nervous actions?” “It is impossible to say whether he was dead or not, but he probably was still alive. in aay event it is certain he felt absolutely nothing | after the shock first struck him. His convulsive struggles and eventful death were absolutely Paiuiess. 1 believe that there should not be several scattered places of execution through- oat the state, and that the apparatus should not be left to various persons aud interests to select, bat that engines, dynamos and appliances gen- ‘ally should be specially made and erected under one roof, and under the control of one man. I mean that there should be only one pleee of exeention for the entire state, situated in some central place, and that erimimais should be taken there from all over for execution. One man should be piaced in exclusive control of all executions. I pro- Ose to attempt to have the state law amended so a8 toembody this idea. I shall have a biil to that effect drafted and introduced into the legislature. I think it is highly important to take electrical executions out of the hands of wardens of state prisons. There will undoubt- edly not be any further mistake of any kind in executions to come. This execution has demonstrated the fact that no dynamo should be used eapable of generating less than 1,500 ot, and that the electricity should always be on was not so successful as it | nt for the irreg- | ly were rendered | administered for not less than fifteen to twenty seconds.” 4 SHERIFY’s VIEWS. Sheriff Oliver A. Jenkins of Erie county was severe in bis condemnation of the experiment of killings buman being by electricity; He describes the revival of Kemmler and his sec- ond dose of electricity thus: “After the current hed been circulating through the body for eighteen seconds Dr. Spitzka pronounced the man dead and the cur- rent was tarned off. The electrode on the head was loosened and every one was convinced that Kemmler was dead. The semi-circular group of men stood motionless for a minute or" two and were on the point of dispersing, when a murmur of horror arose and every eve was again fixed on the murderer's face. Then wo saw a horrible sight. First, the chest rose and fell laboriously, as though the condemned man was struggling for breath. The struggle rapidly grew stronger and became convulsive. The entire body from the waist up shook and trem- bled violently. Specks of oe appeared on the lipa and were followed byastream of saliva that ram over the strap on the chin and downon the tortured victim's shirt. Then came a gurgling sound and a labored raising of the shoulders. Ail this took place in # very short time and was so disgusting a spectacle that many of the witnesses turned their heads away. he electrode was rapidly put in place again on the murderer's head, and a little ery went up toturnon the current again. This was done, not once, but several times, as could be seen by the shocks that came at the body viciously and struck it so hard as to make it quiver, With these shocks cameasmell of burning hair and flesh that filled the room and added greatly to the horror of the scene. It was clear that the head of the poor wretch was being scorched and the scalp burned. “Asifthe ghastliness of the spectacle was not enongh the several shocks made the body quiver bke a mass of jelly that is shaken. The biows appeared to be hard enough to kill any living thing, and under them all action of the body ceased, the muscles relaxed and there id be no louger any doubt that death had mercifully come. vi ‘n Durston removed the head straps while Vieling took off the other bandages, leav- ing the body to settle down in the death chair like a bundle of old clothes.” EDISON ISN'T SURPRISED. “I have read the account of the execution,” said Thomas A, Edison last night, “and while itis to be hoped that later advices will not Prove so terrible, I see no reason to doubt that the account I read was essentially correct. | The fault lies wholiy with tue doctors. Theoretically they are right, no doubt. The | nerve center of the human system lies | in the base of the skull, But practically they are all at sea, Here we have had something like thirty perfect examples of instantaneous death by electricity | {in the accidents that have happened in and | around New York. How was the electricity applied in these cases? Never to the head. Of what use has been the death of these thirty men? in every case the mortal charge entered through the hand, Ig no case was the strength of the current nearly half what was to have been passed through Kemmler’s skull. The reason why contact by hand is so much more fatal than through the head is that electricity els through the water in the human body. | hair of the head isa non-condnetor. You | see that when you comb your head with a | b, Anything that electricity attracts | i conductor, ‘ihe bones are also | non-conductors, and in electrical executions | like that of Kemmler the bones of the skull {have to be penetrated, The Evening Sun says that Kemmler’s skin was burned at the back of the neck. This statement proves he got only a very small part of the current. Had he received the whole 1.300 volts into his body it would have burned him up. I testified as to the resistance of the various parts of the body during the Westinghouse litigation in New York last spring. I had experimented upon 1,100 people and I knew whercof I spoke. I saidthen, as Tsay now, that the true way to execute a criminal is to send the current through his body from one arm of the death chair to the other. The arms, hands and fingers are full of blood, which i a good conductor of elec- tricity. Let the hands be properly cleansed and moistened, and the charge would pass through the heart, causing instant death. It is true that I recommended the electrical ma- chinery used at the execution. I see no reason to find fault with the machinery. I have no doubt that the electrical experts who assisted at the execution handled the machinery in the best possible way. The trouble, to my mind, lies wholly in the application of the current to the victin’s body, ia working cat ofu docser's theory in the face of the plain demonstrations of experience.” HEFORT OF THE AUTOPSY. The antopsy was held three hours after death under the supervision of Drs. Charlos F. Mac- donald, E. C, Spitzka aud George F. Shrady of New York, and performed by Dr. W. T. Jen- kins of New York, assisted by Dr. Clayton M. Daniels of Buffalo, N.Y. Dr. Shrady gave out the following as the result of the autopsy, so far as im form, for public use: Body fairly well nourished, Rigor mortis marked partic- ularly in the muscles of the jaw, neck and thorax, and gradually extending from above downward, involving the feet and the legs last. The post-mortem hyperstas is marked over lower portion of body and extend- ing up as far as the antenor axillary line, also on the pendant surface of the face of the upper and lower extremities, The upper extremities are partly flexed and rotated outward, the nails showing post-mortem lividity. There was a seminal discharge, which. on examination, was found to contain a large number of dead spermatazoa. There was a marked diseolora- tion of the forehead about an inch in width, corresponding with the position of the strap, beginning at the hair jine on the left side and extending to the hair line on the rightside. A corresponding discoloration from the pressure of the chin strap was also noted. There was an oval depression of the scalp upon the vertex beginning at the anterior hair line aud measuring four inches in its long and three and a half inches in its short diameter, Anterior to the pzsteriar portion of the depres- jon andin the immediate line there was a burn one and a half inches in length and half an inch in width, superficial im character, shgitly scorching the hair and crescentic in shape. On the small of the back, correspond- ing to the level of the fourth sacral vertebra beiow and second above, four and one-half inches in vertical diameter and four and one-half | inches im transverse diameter, was a burn pre- nting four concentric zones, of which the termost had a pale area, corresponding to that of the rubber cup of the electrode and one-quarter of an inch in diameter, ‘Then follows « partial and complete vessica- | tiou, partial below aud complete above, about | an inch m diameter above and one-third of an | inch below. Then follows a transition zone, which is in its upper third # complete eachar, black in ap- | pearance, and its lower part showed dessica- | ton and was of a greenish-brown color, Au j internal zone showed a number of vesictes, chiefly peripheral, and below thecenter a black eschar half aninch in its vertical and five- eighths of an inch in its transverse diameter. Atove isa tongue-shaped pale area, with a lateral projection to the left of the’ median | line, extending about two inches, and an upper | projection in the dorsal furrow, which is more | sharply pointed, and which on its periphery there Was @ redding quarter, with ere and | there vessicatiou. ,Ju addition the back showed | @ number of depressions produced by the folds of the shirt and suspenders as are commonly | found in dead bedies lying on the back. | On incising the skin over the sternum the blood which escaped was unusually dark and fluid and remained #0 ou exposure. There was no vermicular action of the intestines on ex- posure to the airor on irritation, The dia- phragm extended from the fifth intercostal on the left and the fourth on the right. The blood | from the cut surface of the liver was ofa crimson-like color. Abdominal organs were normal in ation and appearance. The muscles of the thora were of the usual color. ‘Tardieu spots were noticed on the posterior rder of the lower lobe of the jeftlung. Over balf of the lung floated when placed in water, showing ® marked emphysemalous con- dition, The bronchi were normal in pearance and contained mucus andair bubbles, Tis right lang wus otherent thisughout to the diaphragm. In the middle lobe of this lung there were numerous well-marked tardieu spots. een was normal in size and ap- pearance. The left kidney weighed three and one-half ounces and the right kidney three ounces; both were intensely congested. The stomach contained» pint of undigested food. | Phe gall bladder was distended with bile, The heart weighed five and three-quarter ounces; valves were healthy, Bladder contracted. ‘he scalp on being removed showed the ver- tex of the skull to be in a dessicated condition, corresponding with the contact of electrode, 4s previously noted, but of larger area, being four inches by four inches, the zone of the scalp being only two and ahalf by three inches, the long diameter being anterio- terior. On removal of the skull cap the dura was — in ss somewhat _— color, | particularly over the area correspon with the zone of contact. In the re- ensuring a long a j her home every gion the meningeal vessels m: iorly of four inches on convexity anterio- | the left side and three on the right were filled On the internal as- vessels in with carbonized pect of the calvariam the the dura, the contents and coats appeared to be black and carbonized. The carbonized vessels were so brittle that their ends were with the calvarium, and presented a & crummy appearance. This carbonization was limited In an abrupt manner. The other menin- geal vessels contained blood of a crimson-iake hue corresponding to the outer burn previously described, In ite narrowest portion was seen a little posteriority in the median line, a dark discoloration sending outs rigne lateral pro- longation in direction of longitudinal sinus, in width of an inch. Over the left hemisphgse of an inch left of the median Tine ‘there was a deep carbonized 8] corresponding with the carbonized pee of the calvarium. This charred spot corresponds to the dursof dull color as previousiy described, The pia and gyri themselves were of a pale buff color; the rest had the ordinary rosy injection of the or- dinary cortex. While observin: eneinic area it was noticed that its blood vessels began to fill. The piaand arachnoid on the con- vexity were perfectly normal, An in fact was observed on handling the Rous an medulia, in that they were found to warm. By a thermometer inserted in the fourth ven- tricle the temperature was noted at 97 Fahren- heit, This corresponds with an area of temperature on the back of the neck which was noted as 99 F. two hours after death and 973¢F. three hours post mortem. The smaller vessels of the pia were letatic. Capillary hemorrhages were noted on the floor of the fourth ventricle and the same condition in the third ventricle and the anterior portion of the lateral ventri- cle, ‘The peri vascular spaces appeared to be distended with serun and bk The brain cortex in area of contact was sensibly hardened to one-sixth of its depth, where there was a broken line of vascularity. The vessels over the corpus streatum showed enlargements in different parts of their —_ramifica- tions. The pons was slightly softened. The burned integrement of the back on being removed showed the spinal muscles underneath to be cooked like ‘over done beef” throughout their entire thickness. The spinal cord was removed entire, but showed no gross appearances of pathelogical condition. Por- tions of its structure, as well as those of brain tissue, were preserved by members of the staff for purposes of hardening and microscopical examination, The blood taken immediately after death showed under the microscope a markedly granular condition almost suggesting an clecholytic dissolution of the red cor- puscles, COMMENT OF THE NEW YORK PAPERS, ‘The Times says: It is unfortunate for the cause of execution by electricity that its first trial was badly bungled. It was intended to be @ merciful method of putting condemned mur- derers to death, painless and instantaneous, | aud there is reason to believe that properly ap-_ plied it might be so, But yesterday at Auburn i i iy not successful. hile yesterday’s experi- ment was a failure in the sense we have men- tioned, it does not show that this mode of in- flicting the death penalty is not a success, The failure was due not to the system, but the | bungling, inefticient way in which the execution was managed. and the electricians, While we cannot consider it settled that the law should endure, says the New York Zribune, further tests of its desirability should be had. These will be in the interest of mercy and civ- ization, Kemmler’s sufferings, whatever they may have been, were certainly no greater than ne would have had to endure had he been choked to death, and they were probably in- finitely less. Mach of the contortion he went through was mechanical and not the result of feeling, and the probability still remains that itcanu be entirely prevented and that the ap- parent resuits of the death stroke will subside in an instant after it has been dealt, The Sun said: Scientific curiosity has been gratified sufficiently by this one awful experi- ment. The present generation 1s not likely to hear of another such scene of horrible uncer- tainty, unknown torture and heart-sickening circumstances a8 was witnessed yesterday morning by the assistants at the judicial ex- eriment upon the body of Wm. Kemunler. Civilization will find other lines on which to manifest its progress, It may be taken for granted that public sen- timent in New York will tolerate no further essays in this new experimental science of man- killing by electricity peuding the time when the law can be repealed in the name of the state's dignity and of the enlightened humanity of the nineteenth century, The fault was with the doctors a Se Two Ingenious Paupers Caught. Paris Dispatch to the London Daily Telegraph. Sympathetic spectators gathered this after- noon around a young man who fell down in front of the Louvre in what appeared to be an epileptic seizure. One of the bystanders stepped forward and proposed to carry the in- valid to « chemist’s shop not far offand another offered to assist. ‘The one who spoke first took up the epileptic’s hat, and throwiug sixpence into it, said to the crowd: “I ama poor man myself, but if each one of you did as I do this unfortunate creature would have something to help to relieve his sufferings.” Impelled by this generous example, the crowd showered coppers and small silver into the hat until over ten shillings was collected. Great waa their aston- ishment when two constables walked up and ed both the benevolent originator of the aims collection and the epileptic sufferer. The latter, as soon as he opened his eyes and saw the policeman, forgot that he was an invalid and attempted to escape. They were both taken to the lock-up and were identified as two well-known lazy mendicants named Carnet and Desmarets, They had enacted the same dodge successtuily in the Rue Saint Honore during the forenoon, the epileptic and his colleague on that occasion fleecing the charitable to the extent of 8 shillings. ‘The chemist’s assistant, who relieved the pretended sufferer in the Ruo Saint Honore. happened to pass the Louvre while this second performance was going on.

The Vienna correspondent of the London Daiiy News telegraph: t the trial of a Bo- hemian shoe maker on Thorsday for the mur- der of his wife a cruel tale of suffering woman- hood and of man’s brutality was brought to light. When the shoe maker married his wife brought him asum of money which she had saved during ten years’ service. They were then both about twenty-five years of age, and by hard work they prospered, and the shoe maker at last saw himself a master with six or eight workmon. It was then that he began to neglect his work and sit in the public house for hours together until drinking became a terrible habit. Gradually, as the family grew larger, their means dwindled, and the man sold the very beds from under the little ohes. At last, when the poor woman saw there was no chance of ever retrieving ber position as long as she stayed with the man, she put the bigger children out as apprentices and went away with three little ones. For these she managed to find a living by working hard as a charwoman, The man soon found her out and tried to make his peace with her, but she re- fused to live with him, although he followed night. ‘On June 1 he came to the house, and, after the wife had given him some dinner and the last bread in the house, she told bim to go away, as she would bave nothing more to say tohim. The man, who had been sitting on the bed, jumped up, drew a knife from under his waistcoat and stabbed the poor woman in the neck with such force that the blade remained in the flesh, leaving the handle in his hand. The woman died almost immedi- ately. The trial showed that the man then went into a public house, ordered a glass of beer, finished.a cigar he bad been smokin, while he committed the deed, and then avowed what he hud done and said he was going to give himself up to the police. At the trial he pro- tested that, to put an end to his misery, he had intended first to kill his wife and then himself, but there is nothing to | ad that he made any attempt upon his life. He was sentenced to be hanged.” —_-~+eo—____ Now ts the time to stamp out the stupid lie often used by the advocates of the Atkinson bill that the citizens of other sections of Washington regard with indifference the sacrifice of the lives and prop- erty of the people of South Washington, Send in your protest against the calumny, —_— Red-Heeled Shoes for Men.

The Habit Grew From a Transaction ‘With a Woman. From the Boston Globe. The pawning habit is a comparatively new feature of Vassar life. At least one cannot find that it was ever heard of until within the past four of five years. How it originated is not known positively, but the story goes that once upon a time a well-known and very popular girl, who generally had plonty of money to spend, and who, for that reason as well as sev- eral others, wae queen of her select circle, found herself very “hard up,” and as this con- dition was due to extravagance that her teach- ers or parents would hardly have consid- ered legitimate, she did uot dare appeal to them. Finding herself in Poughkeepsie, and being about to spend her last 10 cents in buying sweetmeats of the old woman who had sup- plied her with these dainties for nearly three years, she became confidential, and told the sympathetic cake woman everything. The old woman really feeling that it would be an honor to have’ such a “lovely young lady” accept a loan from her so expressed her- self, and her offer, after some demurring on the part of the young lady, was accepted. Of course, it was only a week or so before she was supplied with money from home, and in paying the debt she imsisted upon giving a little bonus on the actual sum, perhaps merely in gratitude, erhaps knowing that tobe the best way of eantag the transaction secret. 'The tradition goes on to say that finding that such an easy way of getting money she re- sorted to it quite frequently, and after a while told # friend, who told a friend, and so on. — —- see TROTTING HORSES DON'T PAY. Good Runners Will Pay Three or Four Times as Much ia a Season. From the Chicago Evening Post. “Why don't I train trotters as well as run- ners?” exclaimed a professional owner yester- day in reply to a query of precisely the same import, ‘Why don’t! train trotters, you say? Why, sir, 1 make my living out of horses and don’t Just keep 'em for fun like a California Senator.” The speaker was atypical Kentucky horse- man—one who had lived among horses all his days and did his own training ever since he he raised a colt—and his looks showed it. “A trotter costs just as much as a runner to train,” said he. ‘“Versonally, 'd thoroughbred any day of the ter, and I'd sooner see one good race like that Salvator-Tenny match the other day than sit out all the trotting meets that ever were sct in heats, But leaving one’s personal tastes and distastes out of the matter and coming down to straight dollars and cents thre is about three times more profit for me in raising runners and racing them than I could ever hope to get out of trotting horses, It's justa matter of bigger money, and as Tam nota millionaire I am sensible to take up the more profitable side of theturf. Unless a man wins some bi; matches in a season or back his trotters wi luck he cannot pay the expenses of a big stable. The stakes offered, you see, are too smalland the chances too few. A trotting meet only lasts, say, three days, and there is rarely as much as @2,000 hun up in purses on any one day. ‘There will be, say, three events each day, nine in all, and if I fail to make ajstrike I have to go to all the trouble and expense of transport- ing my nage to some other mecting. Ata run- ning meet I can just hunker down and wait my chance, and by picking up a couple of purses and maybe a stake race easily clear my ex- penses and pocket a few dollars besides. Last year Salvator alone won seven races and €71,- 380, while ten of the best winners on the trot- ting turf won fifty races and only $96,910 in money. Take ten of the largest winners on the running turf last year—Salvator, Chaos, El Rio Rey, Longstreet, Tenny, St. Carlo, Senorita, Protection, Spokane and Raceland—and they combined won sixty races and $392,238, Ten of the largest trotting winners were Aleryon, Sprague, Golddust, Nelson, Reference, Jack, Gene Smith, Hendryx, Star Lily, Geneva 8. and Aubine, They won fifty-nine races end only $26,910. “That means that, other things being equal, the average earnings of a crack runner are a Little over four times as grent as those of tip- top trotter. Now, if you had to depend for a living upon controlling one class or the other, which, do you think would you take up? Iam not asking which would you like the best, but want to know. if you were like myself, witha wife and acouple of danghters to support de- cently, whether you would like to risk your capital on trotting horses or thoroughbreds!” Chase After an Armed Burglar. From the London Daily News. A desperate chase of an armed burglar took place on July 12 between Cambridge and Roys- ton. Two or three houses were broken into in Cambridge on Wednesday night aud both the borough end county police took up the matter.
