TO-MORROW, THE SUBURBAN! ‘For twenty-one seacons the announcement ‘@bove has thrilled the racegoers who have found them- selves in the metropolitan vicinity in June, lished in 188i, the Suburban Handicap is the oldest fix- ture of its nature on the American turf. About its “Fecords cluster some of the most sensational incidents fm the race-ruuning of the country. ‘To veteran fol- lowers of sporting events the mere mention of the race is sufMfcient to stir memories of Pontiac, Troubadour, Eurus, Saivator, Loantaka, Lowlander, Ramapo, Gold Heels and others in a long list of equine monarchs. The horse last named, the winner in 1902, I» crevditod with the #ecord for the event up to date, 2.5 1-5, Gen. Munroe, owned by B. J. McElmeel, won the first Suburban in 2.113-4. In 1885, Pierre Lorillard, who bad | become a unique figure in racing three years earlier by | ‘winning the English Derby with an American horse,| ehief racing event with an English horse. He succeeded | ‘with Pontiac, who beat ‘Richmond out in a handsome ¥ finish in 2.091-2. Troubadour, almost unheard of up to the time of his announcement, won the third Suburban 4m 2.1214 and turned one of the most sensational bet- ting coups in turf history. As an exhibition of the skilful human handling of _ trained animal strength and speed, such an event as the Suburban is a superb spectacle. It is what makes racing “the sport of kings"—ot kings crowned and uncrowned, The association of the turf with the iniquities of the pool-room is unfortunate. It does not, however, affect the wholesome popular interest in what is best in rao- ing, and {t will not prevent a general wish for a favor- Ing day and-crowd for to-morrow’s great running. POISON IN CHEAP CANDIES. In the office of the Deputy State Commissioner of Agriculture is a jar containing a stick of parraffin two {nches long, beside which repose four small and ap- parently harmless cakes covered with chocolate. The paraffin was extracted from similar cakes on which it had been used to cont the chocolate to keep it fresh. The report of the department's chemist states that par affin to the amount\of 8 per cent. has been found in ‘yelvet Kisses.” Varions other cheap candies, which were sold {n street stands and stores near schoo!-nouite, B disclosed traces of oxide of lead and injurious antline 2% 3% “ayes when anulyzed by the agents of the department. Those adulterants are all gastric irritants. They be- come peculiarly harmful in hot weather, when the child- ish digestion is more easily upset. They are undoubted- ly directly responsible for dangerous enteric troubles and contribute largely to the high summer death rate among children. ‘ ‘The department's activity in detecting and suppress~ {ng the sale of deadly “sweets,” supplementing as it does the work of the Board of Health, deserves great praise, To render it tho more effective the offending dealers should be prosecuted to the full extent of the law and St aD example made of them-which-will render them loath ‘ “to risk @ second offense. ( ‘Jersey Justice—The conviction of Cannon Im Hoboken fur. * nishes another striking example of the celerity and corm tainty of ‘Jersey justice.” A very nasty case has been handled with discretion, the accused convicted after o . brief trial and the law vindicated with expedition and Gespatch, With a prisoner of relative wealth and social postition in\New York, would the end» of justice have been go well served with so tittle obnoxious publicity?
