The best flyers that ed at the big mining camp were Scot- tish Chieftain, Mekallah, Miss Rowena, Lucky Star and Ostler Joe. The news- | papers of San Francisco were well rep- resented, Fred E. Mulholland of The Call acting as presiding judge for two weeks, later as the associate of Ed Hopper in | the stand, while Ben Benjamin of the Chronicle has been patrol judge. The attendance at the track has been very large, but the betting was not so heavy toward the close as at the beginning.

It was Maurice Cannon, the big man. Maurice was billed to visit and pass a few com- pliments with Wallace, the king of the ‘king of beasts,” the largest lion in cap- tivity. “How vas you,” sald Maurice, address- ing the lion when he entered the cage. A voar was the answer, and Maurice pro- Cceeded as rapidly as his weight allowed to dispose as large a portion of his anat- omy as possible behind that of the train- er.” Then Wallace was put through his paces and_likewlse Cannon paced, paced to keep behind the trainer. Then Maurice and his guardian lit cigars; a minute later the blg man squeezed his form out through the door. The trainer followed and the scene was over.

One ot the greatest sensations on the English turf this season was Richard Croker's purchase of the 2-year-old colt, Little Saint, out of a selling race at San- downe Park, where he gave the largest sum on record for a selling plater, viz: 1600 'guineas. The colt thus run up to over $8000 in a selling race cost 60 guineas as a yearling, and {s mighty well bred for a sellin plater, being by Friar's Balsam (sire o Voter, The Friar and Casseopia in_this country) out of Little Emily, by Wis- dom; second dam Lady Emily, by Dis- tun (sire of Imp. Charaxus). A California turfman who considers that certain racing men are in receipt of quite “a shade” at Ingleside, while others are favored at the Oakland track to a marked extent, proposes the following plan of re- form where every one will receive the same treatment, which will be fair: Pro- grammes should be issued at least a s0 that no race can be made for the horse that has won but once since April 19 or some other strange date or condition. There should be six entry boxes, or one for each race. The entrles should be opened in plain view of the turfmen Interested. As the entries ought to be turned face upward and fifteen of them taken in rotation. If any entries remain they should be left out of the race, even though they might belong to some spofled darling of the club. In this way a poor owner has as good a chance of starting his horse as the more wealthy and fav- ored one. As matters are now, it is said, some men owning horses have their en- tries thrown out with great’tegularity simply because it pleases those in autho: ity s0 to do. There should be but two selling races per day, one where the top price is.$2500, the other for, say $1000. Our racing friend thinks there should be five handicappers; that they should all turn in slips (with the horses’ names and the weights they think correct) by a certain hour; then the secretary’s duty would be to add up the figures and divide them by five, thus “‘striking an average.” He also believes that racing reporters make the best racing judges, and he believes they (at least those who have had, say, five years' experience or more) should be the ones to have charge of matters in both the judges’ and stewards’ stands.

She was in a listless state and suffered terribly with nausea. It 5o happened that a friend had given some Ripans Tabuies to this lady’s sister who had suffered from indigestion, and as they did her so much good she thought she would try them on Mrs. Hill, feeling sure that if they did her no good they would at least do no harm. The patient was then in the hands of her physician, but soon she was so much better that her neighbors noticed the change and asked about it. She then said that she had changed her doctor, and laughingly added, my new doctor is colored—chocolate color. It seems that as soon as she began to take the Tabules, she began to mend. The pausea disappeared and she began to feel that the fature still had days of sunsbine.ia store for bet.
