Nothing disturbs the even tenor of Theo- dore Durrant’s leisure. He is no longer a hero, at whom sensation-hunters throw bouquets, and his days in the cool shades of the county jail pass with few visitors and few events, but he does not languish. On the contrary, he is increasing in weight and is resting comfortably, secure in the knowledge that his day of execution may never come, and that, even if it does come, it is still many months distant. ‘The Durrant case is now in the supreme court, under temporary suspension, await- ing the filing of tse pomts m authority by the attorneys for the appzilant. ‘The trans- eript on appeal was nied in the supreme court on the Zth day of July; un the Sth of August the court, upon order of aiti- davit, extended the time twenty days for the filing of the appetlaats pomts of au- thority. On the adtn of August auotner order was made, staying tne proceedin until the 6th of September, upoa the skow- ing of the attorneys for the appellant. Mr. Dickinson and Mr. Deupr: preparing these briefs tor presentation to the court. When they issue them the at- torney general will answer at once with his briefs, and the case v to pro- ceed. In the meantime the court has been examining the record to determine whether or not to issue the writ of probable cause. According to the law a criminal case was to be taken up at the next calendar after the filing of the pt on appeal. This occurs at Los Angeies in Octover. It is just possible that on account of the case being a San Francisco one and the attor- heys residing here, there will be a con- tinuance of the hearing till the San Fran- cisco session of the court, or it may be continued merely to the Sacramento ses- sion, in November. If the case goes over to the San Fran- cisco session, which is in, January, Dur- rant may congratulate himself on living through the spring months of 187, even if everything snould go completely inst him. The supreme court is given ninety days in which to render a deeision. Even if this decision should affirm that of the trial court, there will still be thirty days after the filing of the remittitur tor the trial judge to sentence the defendant. At the quickest time Durrant could not be hanged before next June. In the meanwhile the prosecuting attor- ney will probably endeavor to have a hear- ing of the case at the October session in Los Angeles, seeing no reason why there should be a continuance until the San Francisco session. Of course, if the decision of the trial court is reversed, Durrant’s life will be prolonged indefinitely, and his easy self- bs sion during these many months will be justified. ‘That he hopes for, and probably expects this, is evident by his demeanor, his regu «ious habits, his attention to his onal appearance, his fine appetite and his cheerful spirit of comradeship. He is quite a favor with his cellmat and jail companions, who do not ailow his crime to debar them from his agreeable societ His mother visits him on every visitors day, and sometimes brings with her a friend to enliven her son's dreary hour: ODD SEARCH FOR GOLD. r AN Taxidermist Dixon's Mission in Colo- rade Wilds. the Kansas City Star. ank Dixon, the taxidermist of 721 Wal- nut street, who left this city three weeks ago to hunt for gold in Colorado, which he though: he could locate from gold dust which he found on deer’s teeth, has written back that he {s still on the hunt and in no discourag: Dixon's hunt for gold, and the way in which he undertook it, would seem to many lke a wild goose chase. Dixon was the only taxidermist in this city. Birds and animals came to him from over all the west to be stuffed and mounted. A year ago he received two deer’s heads from Colo- rado to be mounted, and when Dixon skinned them he noticed a yellow substance on the teeth. He examined the teeth close- ly in the light and thought sparkle. He argued this way came from Colorado, the land of gold; they browsed on grass that grew where ‘there was so much gold that its dust got on the grass and became incrusted on the deer's teeth; it only remains to find the exact spot where the deer were shot, and there will be found the gold.”* Dixon took the teeth to a dentist and he said the tncrustation was really a gold de- sit. He tcok them to his friend Schnet- @ goldsmith, and he became as enthu- siaStic as Dixon. Dixon then wrote to the man who had sent him the deer’s heads and found out where the deer were shot, away out beyond Deaver im the wilds of Colorado. Schneiter and Dixon started three weeks ago for that plz A letter received today from Dixon states that Schnetter has started back for Kansas City, but Dixon, sill full of hope, was about to start on a three weeks’ tour along the south fork of the White river. He had found no trace of gold, but the woods were full of grouse and deer. He had examined the teeth of all the deer shot. and they were all incrusted with the yellow, shining de- posit which he was sure was gold. Fi soe More Steel Ralls for Japan. From the St. Louis Globe-Demoerat. Another large order for steel rails is the latest development in the line of direct American export trade to Japan. The or- der is for 9,000 tons for delivery up to the end of the year, and was placed with the Carnegie Steel Company by Mitsui & Co. of Japan, after inviting bids in England and in this country. This is the second large order that has been placed in this country for steel rails on Japanese account, the Illinois Steel Company having filled an order for 10,000 tons a few months ago, and it is expected that the steel rail busi- ness with Japan will develop into a steady and important item of trade. The roads at present are narrow-gauge, and there has for some time been considerable agitation of the questivn of changing to the-broad- gauge. With a view of deciding whether a change in the gauge shall be made im- mediately, the Japanese government has sent Mr. Matsumoto to this country to itudy the matter thoroughly. It is under- stcod that competitive bids are being sought for locomotives from English and American builders. The Brooks Locomotive Works have an order for two narrow: gauge, saddie-tank, standard-type loco- motives, to be used on the Nanwa railroad in Japan. This is the first order the Brooks works have received from Japan, and came about in a way very pleasing to the offi- cials of the works. Free to Bald Heads.

The Awards Demonstrate an Unusual Nai ber of Beautiful Performers im the Various Classes. Special Correspondence of The Evening Star. MANASSAS, Va., September 17, 1896. The second and final session of the Ma- nassas horse show, under the auspices of the Prince William Horseman’s Associa- tion, was a great success from every stand- point, and drew an attendance of fully 1,800, among whom were people of promi- nence from various parts of the state, as well as from Washington and other points. The clouds which had been hanging over the surrounding country for two days broke away early in the morning, and the afternoon was made beautiful by sunshine and breezes. The program was a deeply interesting one from start to finish and re- sulted as follows: Thoroughbred, class No. 26, one year old, a fine bay filly—La Touraine—owned by Marshall & Thompson of Warrenton, took the blue ribbon undisputed; class Ni 28, three-year-olds, bay filly, owned by R. C. Hayden, first prize, no competitor; class No. 2), four-year-olds, R. C. Hayden own- er, first prize, undisputed; class 31, three- year-olds, Lady May, an unusually stylish- looking gray mare, owned by Gibson Bros., prominent breeders of Fauquier, ridden by Herman Gibson, won the blue ribbon; C. W. Smith on Frederick the Great. Queen Ann, a handsome brown mare, also owned by Gibson Brothers, second; class No. 32, four-year-olds, Frederick the Great, a splendid bay hunter, who provoked much admiration among the spectators, owned and ridden by Chas. W. Smith, the treasurer of the Warrenton Hunt Club, took the blue ribbon; Warwick, a sorrel gelding, owned by E. L. Kendall. second: class No. 33, five years and older, Will Ben- rett, a spirited bay hunter, with fine ac- tion, owned and cleverly ridden by A. D. Dundas of Fauquier, first: Lucie, a bay mare, owned by George T. Davis, second. Matched horses, quick draft, class No. 24, three years old, under 15% hands—Bay and black stallions, which attracted the attention of the breeders present, owned by Marshall & Thompson of Warrenton, were awarded the ribbon, undisputed, Class No. 36, four-year-olds, 6Ver 15% hands—Riley and Dexter, a striking-look- ing pair of sorrels, owned and driven by G of Fauquier, won the blue ribbon ift pair of bay fillies, owned and driven by H. Rozier Dulaney of Fauquier, second. Class No. 37, four-year-olds, under 15% hands=Hilda and Queen Ann, brown mares, owned by Gibson Brothers, took the rib- bon; Beauty and Daisy, bay mares, owned by C. A. Heineken of Prince Williem, second. Class No. 38, five-year-olds and over 15% hands—Nellie and mate, a handsome pair cf brown mares, owned by Jos. Ullman, Governor Stanford. a leading merchant of Warrenton, and driven by Charles W. Smith of the War- renton Hounds, took the blue ribbon; a pair of chestnut mares, owned by R. E. Davis, second. Class No. 39, five years old and over 15% hands—Hole & Garber’s bay gfeldings awarded the blue ribbon; Charlie and Charlie L., black geldings,..owned by'd. Norman Legg, second. : Champion drivers, Class No. 40 Bess, "a brown mare, owned by Hole & (Garker, won the blue ribbon; Don, a brown gelding, the white ribbon, owned by II. 1. Hillery; Will Bennett, a gray gelding, owned by A. B. Dundas, the red ribbon. Four ladies appeared in the ladies’ con- test, and their horsemanship was scanned with the deepest interest by the specta- tors. Mrs. Blair Johnson of Warrenton, whose graceful riding was frequently ap- plauded. took the blue ribbon, and won the premium awarded by the association, an elegant Weymouth English bit braddem, bridle, breastplate and -rop; Miss Bessie, the pretty daughter of Mr. J. B. Flynn, also of Warrenton, seconi. ‘The special money premium awarded by Mr. J. Holloway, one of the judges of the show and of the Chevy Chase Hounds, was won by A. B. Dundas on his gray gelding, Will Bennett, in the ladies’ sedele horse class. Heavy weight hunters, class No. 144— Ulysses D. Benner of the Warrenton hunt cn his magnificent black hunter, Perfection, Benner on Perfection. who carrted 190 pounds, was awarded the blue ribbon, the leader of the band in the grand stand giving him an extra trill upon the cornet amid bravos of applause; Chief, owned by George L. Davis, second: A. B. Dundas or Dilk Lewis, third. Mr. Benner’s superior horsemanship and his great mount, Perfection, were the stars of the day. The manner in which he surmounted the jumps recalled his great feat at the Baltimore horse show in the fall of 184, when he rode eight different horses and took sixty-four hurdles at one session of the show; also his remarkable record on the Chevy Chase course in the spring of 1895, when he won a four-milg steeple chase, a race on the flat and a hurdle contest, the same day, respec- tively, on the Widow, Corinto and Spot, against a field of cracks. Hunter’s champion jumping contest, class No. 45—“Acrobat,” whose name fitted his vigorous action and fine conformation, owned and ridden by T. T. Hayden, first; Freeland, a bay gelding, with great striding powers, owned and ridden by D. H. Meade, a bold young rider of Fauquier, second. In the high jump, which was the final event on the card, Chief, owned by George L. Davis, and ridden by Mr. Dundas, took the white ribbon, but the premium offered by the assoctation was not awarded, as the requisite height was not attained; Anna Witt, a promising steeple chaser, ridden by Mr. Benner, showed very bad manners in this event, but made a good impression in spite of her conduct, and was purchased by Mr. James K. Maddux of Warrenton im- mediately after the show. : Mr. H. C. Norris, whose imported Czar of Russia produced a sensation and was the subject of dispute the first day of the meeting, drove the splendid trotter over the race course during one of the waits. His performance called forth a tumult of plaudits and proved him to be one of the greatest exhibits of the show. Governor Stanford, the superb bay stal- fon of the Milburn stock farm, Fauquier county, represented ~ “Marshal: --& Thompson of Warrenton, although proper- ly entered, was thrown out by the asso- elation for. reasons which may come to light later. This horse with a record of 2.21 was the most valuable animal on the grounds. He took first prize at Phila- delphia in 1803, and was the winner of the Breeders’ stake at Detroit as a four-year- old, his sire being the Great Electioneer, with 150 in the 2.30 list. Perfection and-Frederick the Great, which took such high honors, deserve a special mention. The former is a big black geld- ing five years old. stands 16.2% hands, sired by Godolphin out of a dam very highly bred. The latter is a fine looking bay geld- ing, four years old, 16 hands 2 inches high, by Romney, dam by the famous Falladeen. Their owners, Messrs. Benner and Smith, expect to do some great work with them in this season’s meets of the Warrenton Hunt Club. A_great deal of credit is due to Secretary J. F. Larkin, jr., for the success the as- sociation achieved at whut is practically the first formal horse show in Prince Wil- liam ccunty. The enterprise is backed by the substantial men of the commenity, who propose to raise their exhibitions to a high standard «and maintain it on that plane. For a beginning they have mani- fested remarkable enterprise, and_ their proximity to the markets, united to the railroad facilities wnich they enjoy, will enable them to compete with the strongest associations in the country. : aes SPAIN’'S HOME TROUBLES. Distrust and Physical and Mental Misery Everywhere in the Land. From La Petit Gironde. Poor Spain is having a hard time of It just now. All sorts of misfortunes are crowding in upon her. First came the ex plosion in the Cambios Neuvos in Barce- lena, which plunged the entire population iuto the most profourd amazement and put a great number of families in mourn- ing. Then came the great rains of the past winter, which seriously damaged the crops of the richest provinces, Aragon, Navarre, Catalonia, etc, The rains were soon follow- ed by burning and premature spells of hot weather, which completed the ruin. The phylloxera also took a hand in this work of destruction, and caused great damage to the vines. Then, after the water, came the fire. The terrible conflagration of Rueda, In the province of Valladolid, de- stroyed 600 houses and brought misery and total ruin upon thousands of honest work- men. Now the political plague !s raging. Hun- dreds of republicans have been arrested in Madrid, Seville ard Bartelona, on informa- tion more or less correct, which, just as in the days of the inquisition, creates the deepest distrust, even among neighbors. All this is capped by the war tn Cuba, which is wasting so many millions and so many lives. When will this horrible nightmare come toanend? When will the measure be full? When will there be surcease of so muci meurning and misery? The roads are crowded with poor people traveling from one province to another, each one carrying, lke Bias, all his earth- ly goods in a sack: one or two old shirts, a pair of trousers, a blouse and a few pota- toes or other vegetables taken from the fields that torder the roads. In this way they tramp along with heavy hearts, hag- gard and emaciated, worn out by suffer- ings, seeking relief one day from charity and the next day from theft. Every day brings new processions of wretched wan- derers, knocking at each door and begging for bread. The sight is heartrending. At the same time the s‘tuation Of those in authority is grave. The government does not. know what to do. Reinforcements of 40,000 men are needed in Cuba. They will be supplied. Agencies of a more or less stspeciovs character are working with energy for that. But a big sum of money, twenty milliors, they say, will also be needed. The govern- ment has studied the means of procuring it, but the cortes refuses to adopt the pro- posed measures. It Is easy to see, ther fore, that the difficulties are great, both above and below. Wretchedness is all around. Among the lower classes it is physical; in the upper classes it is moral. The picture is dark enough without wan- tonly :naking it darker. When will all this come to an énd? ars ee Need of Spelling Reform. From Tid-Bits. English spelling is remarkable for its indefinite variety. As long as “tisis’’ is spelled “‘phthisis’” the voice of the spelling reformer should be heard in the land. Mr. Turner in the following incident, in view of our present method of spelling, was entirely consistent: Dobbs met his friend Turner on the train. They were both going to London and stopped at the same hotel. Turner regis- tered his name: “E. K. Phtholognyrrh.” Dobbs, noticing it, exclaimed: “Here, what are you assuming such a foreign, outlandish name for? Are you in any trouble?” “Not a bit of it,” replied Turner, am not assuming any foreign name. “What kind of a name is that?” demanded Dobbs. “That is my identical old name,” per- sisted Turner, ‘and it is English, too—pro- nounced plainly, ‘Turner.’ “I can't see how you make ‘Turner’ out of those thirteen letters; besides, what is your object in spelling that way?” asked Dobbs. “Well, you see, nobody ever noticed my name on the register when I wrote it ‘Tur- ner,’’’ exclaimed the latter, but since I commenced writing it ‘Phtholognyrrh’ I set them all guessing. They wonder what nation I am from; what my name is. I can row hear people talk about me all around. It is, as I said before, English spelling. ‘Phth," there is the sound of in ‘phthisis;’ ‘olo,’ there is the ‘ur’ in ‘colonel! ‘gn,’ there is the sound of ‘n’ in ‘gnat;’ ‘yrrh’ is the sound of ‘er’ in ‘myrrh.’ Now, if that doesn’t spell ‘Turner’ what does it spell?’ + e+. —__ Too Much to Expect.
