A STORY OF THE RACE TRACK.
row Richball Won from Buffalo Girl,
Lucy and Flora Bell.
from the Chicago Inter- Ocean.
johnny Campbell, tho well-known horse
inan. has changed but little during the in
tervening years that have drifted away
s n ce he first became famous in Chicago
starting annals by his masterly handling
of the bald-faced pacer Richball in a free
for all side-wheel struggle that left many an
achinv void iu the gang's pocket books, and
that with some is still nothing but a hitter
memory. It was in July, 1883, and that
night before the race the writer, then anew
comer on the Chicago press, dropped into
the Palmer House to ascertain how the pools
we re selling on the next day's races at
the Driving Park. The vast rotunda
was crowded with trotting horsemen
from all over the country, and the silvery
tongued pool sellers were doing a land offico
business. The free for all pacing race tho
next dav, in which Buffalo Girl, Lucy,
Flora Belle, Richball and several others
were to measure strides, was the medium
for a vast amount of speculation, for Buffa
lo Girl was a strong favorite, with Flora
Belle as the second choice, whiles in jxiols of
*5OO and $6OO the despised Richball could
be purchased for a $lO note. It was that
race that gave Johnnv Campbell his start
in the world, and the bald-faced pacer yet
occupies a warm spot in the genial littlo
horseman’s heart.
“It doesn’t seem such a long time ago,
looking back at it now,” he said, “since I
downed the gang over this track with Rich
ball. but I guess there are some men in this
place who still have a vivid recollection of
the occurrence. The boys did not think
Richball was worth taking into considera
tion, and so made a combination, leaving
him out, and had things all fixed in good
shape for Buffalo Girl to win. Fayette
Smith, his owner, tuyself and two or three
others, however, know what Richball could
do, and so we quietly purchased all the tickets
that, were sold on the horse. Fayette Smith
was to drive him an easy heat in the
first and then I was to get up behind him
and cut loose at the gang. Well, Fayette
drove him the first heat, as was planned,
but, as you will remember, Lucy ran into
him on the upper turn, there tangling him
all up, and they were both shut out. Owing
to tho accident, however, thp judges agreed
to let Richball start again, and no one ob
jected, as he wasn’t thought of as being
dangerous. Just before the second heat I
was sitting on the club house steps, when I
overheard someone say to Jim McCarthy:
‘“Campbell’s going to get up behind
Richball.’
“Jim laughed and replied: ‘Oh, that’s
nothing. If Richball gets dangerous we
can stop Campbell with a $5O note.’ I kept
as quiet as a mouse, and they walked away
without seeing me. Well, I drove him an
easy heat the second heat in order to get him
steadied again and the third heat I cut
loose and won with him. They seemed to
think my winning that was kind of a fluke,
but when I came back and won the fourth
they were as badly a scared lot of men as
you ever saw on a race track. Jim Mc-
Carthy came right down to see me, and
calling me one side he said: ‘Say, Campbell,
you don’t think you can win this race, do
you ?’
“ ‘Oh, yes I do,’ I said.
“ ‘Well, now, say,’ he went on, ‘we’ve got
considerable money on this race and stand
to win quite a sum on Buffalo Girl, and the
boys told me to see you and offer you $3OO
not to drive it out.’
“ ‘Now you know that ain’t enough, Jim,’
1 replied, laughing all the time to myself
“ ‘Well, well, we’ll make it $5OO then.’
“ ‘Mot enough yet, Jim.’
“To make a long story short he kept rais
ing the price until he got up to a couple of
thousand, when I took a big stack of pool
tickets on old Baldy from my pocket and
showed them to him.
“ ‘Do vou stand to win all that?’ he asked,
after looking them over.
“ ‘That’s what I do.’
“‘Wait here a few minutes till I go and
see the boys.’
‘■He was gone for only a short time, and
when he came back he "kept increasing his
price until finally be offered mo $7,000 for
the race, and then I refused. He had lost
his temper a little by this time, and—
“ ‘Confound you, just name your price,’
he said.
“'Look a here, Jim,’ I answered, ‘you said
before the race and when you heard that I
was going to drive, that you could stop
Johnny Campbell with a fiid bill, and now
you Arid that $7,000 won’t do it, You go
back to your party now, and tell ’em that
you’ve found one man that ain’t got any
price, and that that man’s Johnny Camp-
Dell. I kin win this race and I'm going to
do it.’ The boy's tried to hedge out then,
but it was too late, and I went on and won
with Richball just as I said I would.
‘•What made us think that we could win
the race with Richball?
“Well, I’ll tell you. At Louisville one
starlit night before wo went to Washington,
when honest men were all in bed and rogues
were traveling, or in other words between
1 and 3 o’clock in the morning, I drove him
three heats, every one of which was better
than 2:12, and that was fast enough to beat
anybody in those days. I haven’t seen
old Baldy in a long time now. The last
time was at Dallas, Tex., and when I went
into his stall and spoko to him he knew me
in a minute and whinnied after me
as I walked away. I never struck
him with a whip in my life, and yet I could
get more speed out of him than anybody
also. I used him kindly and he seemed to
have confidence in me. One of the days,
when the right time comes, I’m going to
buy him back. He helped me out of the
hole, and it will be only' fair for me to see
that he ends his days in clover. A great
horse was Richball, and when right and on
the edge he could beat any side-wheeler that
ever looked through a bridle.”
THE PRINCE WHO IS WITH US.
Young Yturbide, of Mexico, and His
Romantic Career.
From the yew York World.
Prince Augustin D. Yturbido, grandson
of the first Emperor of Mexico, is at present
“doing” America. His highness is a young
nmn, only twenty-three years of age, and
has only just now started out to see this
country, but ho comes of a blood on both
his father’s and mother's side that has seen
and experienced much. His father,
Angel de Yturbide, the oldest son ot'
me Emperor, having escaped from
Mexico with his mother, the Princess
Josephine, at tho time of the execution of
ihc Emperor, was placed by her in the
Georgetown (D. C.) College to be educatisl.
V bile here he met aud fell in love with the
Bil l who was afterward said to be the hand
somest woman of her time in tho Houth, a
Miss Green. Mme. Yturbide, us she was
railed after her marriage, which took place
w 'iile her lover was a member of the Mexi
can Legation, was a descendant of the old
colonial family of the same name. Her pa
tcrrml grandfather was a Governor of
Maryland, and her maternal grandfather
Gen. U. Forrest, of the Maryland lino.
Curing her life in the South, both before
X 1 '* after the death of her husband, Mine.
Yturbide occupied the greater part of tho
hme at the old family mansion on the
Georgetown road. It was a famous obi
Douse then, as indeed it is still. It was on
the lawn in front of the portico that Wash
ington stood when he chose the site of tho
national capital. Ho was standing there
with t,l:p grout French engineer, “l’Enfant,"
and Instancy lighted on the spot. “That,"
D" said, “shall do the place to which my
jißiiic is to be given,” and they then and
•here liegaij to draw the plans w hich were
■ s l * ar * R toward what it has become. It
this same grand old estate, Kosedale. from
which a slice was sold to become even more
J‘ely known at the present time as Presi
oent Cleveland’s “Red-Top.”
For a time after her marriage Mine,
t turbido lived hero most happily with her
["-’band, who was, by the way, noted for
[*‘ing an ugly n little man as Ills wife was
pUtifuL When Maximilian became
t.mperor he, having had no heir by the
ninprewi Cariotta, elected that the pneout
Prince Yturbide should be brought to him
and announced as his legal and royal heir.
Angel de Yturbide readily agreed to this, as
it seemed to him but the restoration of his
rights to the old Emperor's grandson, and
they removed to Mexico. When Maximilian
fdl and was so soon executed the 4-year-old
Prince was rescued from the mob" by the
intervention of Mr. Seward, and was soon
with his mother in Washington. After a
little time the family returned to Mexico,
but m 187‘J, on the death of Angel de Ytur
bide, they again returned to Georgetown.
From here the young Prince was sent to
M oohvich to be educated, becoming while
there an associate and intimate of the Prince
imperial.
By an especial act of Congress Prince
Yturbide’s property has been returned to
him, and he is the possessor, among other
property, of 15,000 acres of land ana a gor
geous hacienda about one hundred and fifty
miles from the City of Mexico. In tastes
and appearance both his highness is ex
tremely English, the former having been
acquired through his residence abroad, and
the latter—especially his blue eyes and fair
hair and complexion—from his Briton-like
mother.
The only relations Prince Yturbide has
now are Princess Josephine Yturbide, now
75 years old and a resident of Mexico; his
mother, and a cousin. Prince Salvador
Yturbide, who is now 35 years old. Salva
dor visited Philadelphia iu 1873, and his
dashing, dark beauty cut a wide swathe, it
is said, in feminine gardens there. In those
days he kept a large gold Mexican coin in
his pocket with his grandfather’s profile on
it as the best likeness possible of himself.
Later on Prince Salvador was in the Pope’s
army, and bis cousin said he was known
there also as “Le beau Dragon.”
Emperor Yturbide’s youngest sou died in
Paris in 1873, where he bad earned a preca
rious living as the keeper of a public house.
His nephew, our visitor, having been re
stored to his rights, is in no such straits, but
is iu the most luxurious and desirable fash
ion a gentleman of leisure. As such he has
made no distinct plans for his visit here,
although ho has some idea of visiting both
Newport and Bar Harbor. In such event
he will accept some of the many invitations
already extended to him.
A CLEVER SWINDLER.
How “Doc” Minchon Duped a Montreal
Woman to the Tune of $lOO,OOO.
A New Haven special says that detectives
are scouring the country for one of the
greatest of confidence men—“ Doc” Min
chon, with over twenty aliases. A few days
ago a handsomelv dressed woman, accom
panied by York detective, visited the
local authorities in search of Minchon, who
was thought to be hiding here. Minchon’s
latest swindle, by which he realized nearly
$lOO,OOO, is one of the cleverest on record,
according to Inspector Byrnes. The woman
in the case is Mrs. Margaret De Foya, a
wealthy widow. Her husband died a year
ago anil she resided in Montreal. She had
left her $150,000.
Minchon, to escape a United States jus
tice. went to Montreal, where he opened an
office for the sale of Western land securities.
He became the confidential friend of an
artist who was painting a picture of Mrs.
De Foya’s husband. Through the artist he
became acquainted with the rich widow.
He first tried to inveigle her into putting
her money into Western farm lands, but
she wouldn't do it. He then decided to
marry her, and he did so after a long siege.
The marriage caused quite a little sensation
in Montreal social circles. He next per
suaded her into converting her property
into cash or negotiable securities;
$50,000 was turned into money and dia
monds, and about as much more into
bonds. The pair then went to New York
and put up at the Metropolitan, on Broad
way. The second day after their arrival
Minchon induced his wife to go to break
fast without his company. In her absence
he broke open the strong box containing
all her fortune and left. He is wanted iu
the United States and Canada for over fifty
offenses, and is known to the police from
M ontreal to San Francisco.
Inspector Byrnes has his picture, and
saysheisone of the cleverest swindlers of
the age. Minchon is 35 years of age. 5 feet
inches high, of stout build, weighing
1(50 pounds, has brown hair and moustache,
dark eyes and full face. He was born in
New York, and is one of “Con Lynch’s”
gang.
A French Duel that Was Bloody.
From the London Standard.
Paris, Aug. 28.— Two voung men yester
day fought a duel and ran each other
through with their swords. The account
of the encounter, signed by the four sec
ends, is laconic: “After a few minutes’ en
gagement, M de Melville, attacking his ad
versary vigorously, wounded him in the
chest near the right arinpit. His sword
came out in the upper part of the back, af
ter piercing the right lung. Replying im
mediately, M. do Labruyere wounded M.
deMelville full in the chest. His sword,
which was twisted by the violence of the
thrust, glanced off the first rib and per
forated M. de Melville’s left lung.” Some
time ago a commercial traveler at Gay was
sitting in a cafe, and in talking aloud to an
acquaintance, said something uncompli
mentary to the officer of a regiment of
dragoons quartered in that town. M. de
Melville, a Lieutenant of that regiment,
was sitting at another table, but overheard
the remark. He got up and ordered the
commercial traveler to accompany him to
the barracks. This was refused, which
caused M. de Melville to forget himself so
far as to go straight to his quarters, put on
bis uniform, and return with several sol
diers of the guard and drag the commercial
traveller to the barracks, where he was
locked up till he was delivered by the inter
ference of the police. The victim of this
arbitrary conduct commenced legal pro
ceedings' at once against the Lieutenant.
The incident made some stir in the Paris
press, and in commenting upon it, the Cri
clu Peuple called Lieut, de Melville a weak
headed fool. The officer demanded repara
tion, but it was refused him on the ground
that the press had an undeniable right to
appreciate acts that had been made public.
Nothing more would have been heard of M.
de Melville and the commercial traveller.
I but M. de Labruyere, a young Radical
journalist of considerable talent and un
doubted honesty and courage, thought it
necessary to give M. de Melville a lecture.
Ho wrote that instead of going to fetch
the guard he should, if lie considered
iiis regiment had 1 eon insulted, have
gone up to the commercial traveller, named
himself, and then insisted on retracting the
words on the spot. In case of refusal he
should have cliastisrd him himself then and
there. To have acted otherwise was to have
been wanting in sang froid, which, added
M. de Labruyere, “is in the army called by
another name.” M. do Melville’s seconds,
who were sent to M. de Labruyere, found
him quite ready to fight. So this miserable
quarrel has ended in two young gentlemen
running their swords through each other s
body. M. dc Labruvore is, according to the
latest news, out of danger aud progressing
favorably. M. de Melville, whose wound
was the most serious, wished to return to
Gay, but is now lying in a very critical con
dition at the bouse of a friend in Paris.

THE MORNING NEWS: WEDNESDAY, SEPTEMBER 7, 1887.
AT THE CROSSING.
From the Dakota Bell.
Bee her lift her dainty feet.
As she steps across the street.
While just a glimpse of silken hose appears;
How she deftly keeps her skirt.
From trailing in the dirt.
And all the pools and puddles neatly clears.
There's a momentary trace
Of a cloud of flinty lace.
Which floats beneath the margin of her dress;
But the breezes seem to know
As they quickly cease to blow.
That the damsel swings a signal of distress.
Her glowing looks betray.
As she treads her muddy way.
An inward qualm lest something may be wrong;
But her ilgure, trim and neat,
Goes tripping down the street
And soon is lost amid the busy throng.
The Grave of Mrs Surratt and its
Lonely Headstone.
From the Washington Sentinel.
Strange as it may sound, one may ask a
dozen people iu Washington where
Mrs. Surratt was buried and be told they
“have really forgotten” or “never
knew.” Vague reports flitted through
the press at the time that her remains were
lying in the Potter’s Field, or that thev
wero given to a medical college. Not half
the people in Washington know what dis
position was made of them w hen the o!
arsenal grounds were remodeled anil the
bones taken away. Finding that the bodies
of Wirz and Mrs'. Surratt were interred in
Mount Olivet, your correspondent went out
to the home of the dead and visited the
noted graves, about which there has been so
much lyild speculation. The sexton met the
inquiry for the grave of Mrs. Surratt with
a very significant smile, which he explained
as follows;
“The curiosity to see her grave would
have kept a guide busy all the time for the
first few years after she was buried here,”
said he. “We could not spend time to show
people the grave, so we used to direct them
as well as wo could and let them find it for
themselves. There is one curious thing,
though. No one who has said anvtliing
about it in print has ever been able to te l the
truth.”
Taking the main road, the lot containing
the remains of Mrs. Surratt was reached,
lying near and facing the extreme eastern
boundary of the cemetery. It is the very
last row of lots on that side of the grounds.
The lot was donated by a friend, and is a
large, well laid out lot, containing the one
neglected grave. Some time ago a man
was erecting a monument on his lot, and an
old discarded that was taken down ha
wondered what he should do with. Finally
an idea occurred to him to ‘ ‘donate it to Mrs.
Surratt.” It was accordingly set up at her
grave as a headstone, the original name
was cut off, and
♦ *
: MRS. SURRATT j
* *
inscribed plainly across it. It is an old.
plain marble slab, about four feet high, and
stands in a leaning position.
Child Labor the Last Resort of Pov
erty.
From the Chicago Herald.
In a single cotton factory in Cohoes over
1,200 children under 16 years of age, were
found at work. All wero densely illiterate
and so were their parents. The majority of
the latter signed tha affidavits required by
the inspectors with the “cross.” They could
neither read nor write. Among tho immi
grant children lately landed at Castle Gar
den the inspectors found less illiteracy. As
in New York so in Massachusetts. In the
Bay State, one of the oldest American com
monwealths, the proper officials lately re
ported 121,000 persons over 16 years of
age who were unable to read or write.
Child labor is the last resort of poverty. If
the head of the family is able to earn a liv
ing for his family be will not permit his
children to work. Child labor is tho spring
of every evil which menaces the republic.
It means illiteracy, mental and moral turpi
tude and a pronehess to crime. Crider any
scheme of protection which fulfilled its pre
tenses to protect the workingmen it would
not be necessary; it would not be possible,
but that is the trouble with tne tariff pro
tection—it doesn’t protect.
