HAMAN, Plaiotif THE UMAHA DALLY A TROTTING WONDER Golng to the Qnarter«Pole at a 1:58 Gait Thiladelphia Re Among the extenmive and some- what noted collection of trotters now in the course of training under Mr. M. Goodin's management at Belmont Patk is an attractive and well-shapea bay gelding named Felton, the prop. erty of Mr. Charles Wister, of Ger- mantown Entering Mr, Goodin's stable as a comparatively green horse the animalsoon showed an aptitude to trot very , and being cleverly gated Mr. Goodin atonee took especial interest in the httle trotter's future. He received a moderate amount of jogging at first, and afterwards, at jn- tervals, would be sent alongat a lAe ly pace. The horse exhiblted rpid improvement, and in his first attempt to trot a mile with Mr. Goodin, Jr., manipulating the ribbons, he went from wire to wire in 2:30, without any apparent exertion. quent occasions, and in the presence of Mr. Wister, and other prominent gentlemen, he has displayed his re markable abilities at short distances, such as quarters i 33 and 33 seconds, and half miles in from 1:07 1-2 to 1:09. Very rarely he was given a mile, but, at the request of his owner, he trotted upon one occasion the full extent of Belmont, without a skip or break in 2:23 3.4, A fow days ago Mr. Wister, in one of his casnal visits, desired to see his littlo wonder driven a quarter or half mile, and in the presenee of Council- man John T. Strickland and other gentlemen who held watches over the performance. Mr. Goodin, Jr., drove him from the judges’ stand to the quarter-mile pole in 204 scconds, a 1.58]gait. While not in any sense a record, the performance cannot fail to be remembered as the greatest that has ever been accomplished by any trotter in the world seven years old. Felton is fifteed hands and a half inch high, and was breed and raised in the vicinity of Dover, Del. His sire was a horse called Hunter, who was killed on account of his vicious habits; Felton was purchased by Mr. Wister about a year of age for the sum, it 18 said, of §2,000. A Glimpse of Vassar. Vassar college is one of the notable things on the Hudson river which the tourist looks for but does not always find. It is situated about a mile and a half from the Poughkeepsie landing, from which it is hidden by interves ing objects, It commands a magnifi- cent sweep of scenery, mountain, val- ley, and river, and being finely gar- dened and parked, is almost a reali tion, as a writer in Forney’s Chror cle obscrves, of Tennyson’e dream of “The Princess.” About four hun- dred “‘sweet girl graduates with gol- den hair,” from every state in the Union, here pass through a thorough university course, the studies of which are as severe as those in the colleges of Harvard and Yale. The grounds cover an extent of about 300 acres, including a lake red by springs, where boats are at the disposal of the students. There are also shaded walks, woodland retreats, which are favorite spots for study and reading; and a large circular lawn-tennis and croquet ground,which is surrounded by a flower garden di- vided into ten-foot sections for each of the young ladies who have a taste for floriculture. A floral'society has been formed, and besides the privi- lege of using the flowers for botanical dissection and for personal adornment, there is quite a rivalry among the the members in the cultivation of the plants. The students are obliged, as a part of the daily routine, to report ut least one hour’s exercise, either in rowing, gardening, skating, croquet, The recitation hours are from 9 in the morning to 4 in the afternoon, andjthe pupils are free to spend the remainder of the day either in the building or out of doors, the latter being by far most popular in fine weather, Pleasure-boats, manned by young ladies, skim across the lake with a speed that shows their physical development has not been neglected, while a schedule of the dietary proves that the ‘‘cramming” process for in- tellectual improvement is mot done at the expense of the *‘inner man.” These delicato creatures devour daily (oh, tell it not in Gath) 250 pounds of beef, mutton, or lamb, or seventy-five shad tor dinner, after 175 pounds of the best steak for break- fast! They consume 350 quarts of milk per giem, and 100 pounds of butter; also two-thirds of a barrel of granulated sugar, eight pounds of coffee, and five pounds of tea in the same time! Think of the nerves, like harps of a thousand strings, that are being “‘strung” for future curtain lec- tures! Canned fruits of all sorts are eaten in cnormous quantities, and twice a week at dinner the fragile dears do away with 200 quarts of ice cream, Farinaceous food abounds, Several varieties of bread are. always on the table in profusion. Two arti- cles, with bread and butter, are always supplied at tea, Winter brings I,ucfi- wheat, cord, and rice cakes, and from thirty to forty barrels of syrup are used a year! In addition to the class-rooms, lec- ture-halls, refectorics and doromitor- ies, are a school and galle'y of art, museums of natural history, geology, botany, and other kindred sciences, & riding school and a chapel. In the main building are students’, teachers’ and officers’ rooms, a telephone, tele- graph and post-ofice. The library contains 15,000 works of the highest order of literature, history and sci- ence, A marble bust of Matthew Vassar, and also of the first president of the college, Dr. Raymond, whose widow still resides in" the building, adorn the library, In the reading- room may be found the daily papers and periodicals, including those of a scientific nature. A separate building is devoted to astronomical science, which has a revolving dome and con- tains one of the largest telescopes in the country, a sidereal clock and chronograph, transit instruments, and five small telescopes, with all the necessary apparatus for astronomical and weather observations and for ob- serving and photographing thesun, The museum of natural history, containing a fine collectiong of minerals, birds, etc., and many rare specimens and works on ronchology, occupies a large building, with the gallery of art, bowling-alley, gymnasium, and the forty pianos for the daily practice of music-pupils. The students have, be- Upon subse- | DIt L ULSUA L, sides the floral society, a philalethian and one of religions inquir of natural history, a fine ar Shakspeare club, and_others clubs, mu tual improvement and for social recre ation. Each young lady has a room to herself, fitted up with a set of oak furniture; and ench suite rcoms has a common par students take especial pride thre ating their rooms during tl three years' stay, and some of ti are made charming with many ences of femalo taste and still. e—et— How They Enforoe It in tho Green- Mountain State Correspondence Cineinnati Commer | Rurnasp, Vt., August 4. 1 dosire to add as a sort of postseri] ot ter 1 sent you from Ludlow cok or ten days ago some things that 1 have learned or that have occurred to me since that time bearing upon the en 1 [ forcement of the liquor laws in ths| | state. CINCINNATE WHISKY At Clarendon Springs, | watering place a few miles f [ met a gentleman who is a moember of the firm of whisky jobbers on yoamore street, Cincinnati. 1 pre- sume if the truth of what lie said to me, and which T am about to relate, | whre to be questioned, he would not object to giving his own simnature, We wero conyersing about the en forcement cf the liquor daws 1 Ver mont, and the Cincinnati gentleman said: popular m here, IT 18 ABSURD to claim that the sale of lijuor the use of it in this state is and | ctica- | bly prohibited. 1 have no doubt the statements made your lctter are correct about the situation and the methods of procuring whisky, and know of my own knowledge that Ver- monters are well supplicd with whisky, and of the best quality, too. A PROHIBITION MARKET, Vermont is an important market to the whisky dealers of Cincinnati. Our house sends large quantitics to this state, to Maine and to Massachusetts, Ttis all sent ‘‘cased”--that is, the casks of liquor are boxed so that the contents cannot be told from the ap- pearance of the package. The morn- ing before T left wo sent five barrels of whisky to Burlington, to a regular customer there, and we have soveral. THE STATE WITH ‘‘NO SALOONS We send, however, the most whisky to Maine. There is hardly a whisky house in Cincinnati that does not send more or less whisky to that state and great quantities to Massachusetts, The Mair hisky is nearly all sent to Dover, N. H., which is almost on the line between the two states. Most of the Maine dealers come there for it or sond trusty agents. The best quality of whisky is or- dered by Vermonters, and the poorest quality by Boston. The average of liquor sold in Vermont is above that | of Ohio, but the cheapest sort of liquor is ordered by Boston. 1 pre- sume it is to sell along the docks, stock-ships, ete. GO HOME You tell the editor of The Commer- FOR NEWs. el that he need not go out of Cin- cinnati to find out whether liquor is used in the probibition New England states. If the whisky men would give the information his reporters could make an interesting statement of the amount of liquors of various Kinds-- principally whisky—that are sent to Maine, Vermont, Massachusctts and Kansas by distillers in that city alone, and that would be but asmall amount compared with that sent by the num- berless distilleries of Kentucky. Perhaps, though, the whisky men may not want to give the facts, but 1 don't see why they should hesitate, so long as they do not give the names of or identifying facts about the people to whom the liquors aro consigned, A FUNNY of the liquor business las ‘developed in Burlington, A man there who owned a big ice- house hasdone quite a business storing and preserving brewed and distilled liquors for private persons, The au- thorities made a raid on his ice-house, and captured scores of barrels of whisky and kegs of ale and beer, These’guilty packages where treated ike vagrant dogs in New York,—they were imponded; so to speak, and kept a short time for identification, Some of the gentlemen owning kegs or bar- rels came up like men, dentified, and carried away their precious pack- | ages, but the majority scre never cal- led for, and their costly and foaming contents went into the gutters, A FUNNY HORKOR! Twill close by relating a funny inci- dent that occurred in this city. In some senses 1t is funuy, and in others it is horrible. It has long been the custom all through the state to steal liquor in transitu, whenever possible. In my letter T described one method of steal- ing it, practiced at Middlebury. It has been customary for thirsty and ixuecuuiuuu members of this class of bad men to hang about freight depots and “spot” liquor packages. Very often the freight agent or some of the mn(lmyuu were ‘‘bad men” themselves, and many a cask lost a portion or all of its contents before it destination, The bad men would ascertain the presence and location of the whisk, in a depot or car, and hore up through the floor and bovtom of the cask, and down would come the beverage, Men employed about the freight houscs would often give the needful informa- tion, Some years ago a crowd of good fel- lows here, one of them a well-known livery stable man owner, were in “‘cahoots,” as they say here, with a freight agent, who one day notified them that there wus a cask of liquor in the depot, and that night the PHASE reached its from the cask through a small hole bored by one of the number, It was much funnier to get full on whisky Kmducad in this way than with that ought and paid for, It was observed that the whisky had a villainous flavor, and preity soon the drinkers, nstead of getting tight in a regular way, began to wet very ill. They got so deathly sick that a physician was prooured in great hastp and alarm, who worked on all the party with stowach pump and emetics, and afterwards, n order to crowd went over to West Rutland and | the throat, or any affi prepared to have a royal blow-out | thr with a gallon or so of whisky drawn | Kixa's administer fitting remedies, hastened AUTUDIL LU 1001, to discorn what was the matter with the whisky. An investigation showed that the cask from which it was drawn contained a human cadaver, preserved in liquor, and on its way from a New York hospital to the medieal coll at Burlington for dissection The doctor reassured his horror stricken patients with the consoling information that the which was a colored man) was well presorved, and he didn't that any conta discase had the cause of death. None of the drinkers of that ghast Iy tipple died, andnone were reformed Dy that experience with the *“‘demon rum.” They have all been drinkin, bard and “straight” ever since, to g ““the taste out of their mouths. corpse protty think been Pico. Masked and Ready Puctlo Chieftain For same time past guards have gone out and come in on every Santa Fe train leaving or arriving in the city. The reason tor this precaution is well known to our readers, as the subject has been thoroughly discussed in these columns at varicus times, but for the information of those who have not been fortunate enough to read our former issues, wo will state that the | prime object for this precaution is the fact that road agents have threatened on various occasions recently to wrock the Atehison, Topekn & Santa Fo trains, by which these scoundrols ex- pected to capture a large amount of valuablo plunder. News of these in tended raids, however, came to the ears of the officers of the road, and at once procoeded to take meas- s to checkinate the scoundrels in any attempt they might make, hence it is that guards now travel with all express and passenger traing, and that the conductors and brakemen have been armed. On sevoral oceasions nows has boen received by conductors of trains that thoy would he stopped, but so far nothing of the kind has oc- curred, although at any minute a break is liable to be made. The following story regarding the ace tions of the knights of the road is told by Conductor Deetz, who runs one of the morning express trains into this city: On Sunday last while coming west, east of Blackwell, ho heard ru- mors of an intention on the part of tho robbers to wreek his train. . Upon arriving at Blackwell he found a tele- gram awaiting him from the condne- torof the freight train who had passed there several hours before, The telegram stated that a numerous party of masked men had heen seen by the conductor and brakemen on the freight hiding near Caddo, and it was reported that this was an organ- ized band of robbers and thicves, who intended to’wreck and rob his (Deetz) train, and adv sing him to look out for the scoundrels, Guards were at once placed oif duty in the mail, express and baggage cars, and the doors of the same were locked, bolted and barved. The passengers were then notified to keep cool, hide their money and valuables, and be ady for a fight at any time. The r was then instructed to run the train only four miles an hour un- til after the threatened locality had been passed. Caddo was reached and lum--xl!, however, and no break was made, although we have postive i formation at hand that it was the in- tention to stop and rob the train near Caddo; but the leaders of the band became alarmed and gave up the in- intended foray. It is believed that for the present they have given up all in- tention of robbing the Santa Fe, the ofticials of that road having proved too much for the robbers. However, the company is not relaxing its pre- cautions in the least, and the band of train robbers who stop one of the Santa Fo trains and get away with the treasure, will be better men than we give them credit for being. The carcasses of the scamps would be rid- dled with bullets before they ever succoeded in getting into a car, Mr. J.
