THE system that wins.
a , MYSTERIOUS WOMiN OP THE
' TURF and HOW SHE BETS.
Desire for Revenge Brought Her
p rgt to the Race Track-Sbe is There
Still end is SIOO,OOO Ahead of the
Q„ a a - The Old-Timer Telia Her
c , ory _The Successful System and
Bow to Flay It. ,
From the New York Sun.
Many racing men Lave aoen her, and mar
veled at her freshness of face and smooth
ness of brow, because few of either sex who
follow the turf for pleasure or its a means
0 l livelihood escape care’s penc.lings.
For tea years or so the male element had
(een ter wager her money, and many a
mar, bad tried to become acquainted with
tte "mysterious woman of the turf," as she
ai called by common consent. She was al
ways circumspect, and her dark eyes looked
jteadfastly into those of the male sex, and
many a man was Sl ad to sneak away into
aorne secluded spot after encountering one
loot of repmof. The most Incorrigible and
successful of the male flirts twitched their
ruustacbes and sighed in vein. Any little
courtesies shown her in the train on the way
to and from the track were always acknowl
ejgtsi in the ne st polite manner, but there
vjt, a barrier beyond which nobody over
dared intrude.
She was invariably accompanied by a
toy of 15 or thereabouts—not always'the
sjiae lad—who executed her commission* in
the betting ring, and when not occupied in
running between the betting lnclosure and
tbo woman’s side, would study the pro
gramme of the day’s racing and consult a
tiip of paper covered wish figures wuich the
“mysterious woman” always had at band.
Together they would con over the rows of
figures, and when the investigation was
completed a roll of bills, sometimes amount
ing to hundreds of dollars, would bo thrust
into the boy’s hand, and the lad, after a
whiskered injunction, would dart in the
direction of the ring.
"A singular woman that,” said an old
timer one day at the Morris Park autumn
meeting, as the woman in question, with
the boy trottiug faithfully at her side,
tripped down the main aisle of the im
mense grand stand and took a seat near the
musicians’ place.
“Yes,” 6aid two or three of the men in
the group, “we have seen her for years,”
“Who is she? Tell us something about
her. You know she is called the ‘mys
terious woman!”
“I do not know her personally,” was the
veteran’s reply us he stroked his gray
mustache thoughtfully, but I can tell you
something about her. She is Mrs. , the
wife of one of New York's best known busi
ness men, who was very wealthy a dozen
years ago. She was married when 17, and
was, as you can readily believe, a woman of
dazzling beauty. fcshe is beautiful still, is
she not ?” aud the speaker looked In the
direction of the woman and gazed through
his gold-rimmed glasses.
"Yes, yes, she’s all that; but the story,
the story," said one of the audience, impa
tiently.
"Yes, to my story. Well, her husband
thought there was but one woman in the
world, aud lavished his money on her for a
year. He was always fond of the turf, and
took many a flyer on the crack thorough
breds that raced in those days. He took an
interest in W all street, too, and folks said
that his ventures thore were on a par with
those on the race course, and there
was considerable surprise when
it was told one morning that
after sending Ms young wife up thecouutry
for a visit to her mother he had written her
a pathetic note explaining that ruin stared
him in tbs face, as the outcome of his
gambling ventures, and that he was too
weak and oowardly to take up the cudgels
and begin life over again. Securities held
in trust by him hal been sent after money
lost on the turn of the market or on leadeu
heeled racers that failed to get home in
front, aud ho was going to die by his own
hand.
"And so one morning when he failed to
call for his cup of coffee, one of the serv
ants entered tbs room and found him life

heart-broken in her bereavement, hastened

A FERTILE REGION IN ALASKA.
Green Valleys and Much Mineral
Wealth Discovered.
From the New York Tribune.
E. J. Glare, who had some rough ex
periences in Alaska eighteen months ago,
has just returned from another trip to that
country and he brings back with him con
siderable valuable geographical and other
information. He has been absent niue and
one-half months aud five months of that
time wore spent in the Mount St. Elias
region iu Eastern Alaska, which was never
before visited by a white man.
That part of the country it
always has been supposed contained
nothing but snow-covered mountains,
frozen rivers and glaciers. From the maps
of the government to-day the information
to be had is that the region is supposed to
be cold the year rotiud and that it is barren.
But Mr. Glave has discovered that the coun
try, instead of being auything like what it
was supposed to bo, is as fertile as any part
of the west, and that during five months of
tho year it is warm and pleasant. Further
more the temperature is never below zero
In the wiuter. There are vast quantities of
minerals there, rich deposits of copper being
abundant.
Mr. Glave did not reach New York until
yesterday. He returned home by way of
Panama, reaching the United State!
through Maxioo. Yesterday was the first
time ho had aa opportunity to talk for pub
lication about the results of bis explorations
in the interior of Alaska.
“I had two reasons for exploring that
wild region," said he, when at tho Everett
house yesterday. “Ouo was to see if there
was a vast amount of mineral wealth in
the mountains within easy reach, aud the
other was to open up a transport route. I
did not find largo deposits of mineral, as I
expected to find them, but enough is there to
make it more than au object to establish a
great industry in that part of the country
when it is open to easy transportation, and
I proved beyond a doubt that transport
routes could bo established between the St.
Elias district and the coast,
“I started for the interior from the coast
near the Cbikat river earlv in June with
four pao horses. Jack Dalton, who has
had considerable experience in prospecting,
was my only companion. Before our de
parture we were told by old explorers that
wo would never be able to reach the country
north of the Mount iSt. Elias range as there
were no provisions to lie hail in that arotio
region, as it was called. But when I reached
that part of the country I found fertile val
leys and immense forests instead of ice and
snow. Tho finest kit’d of grasses wore
growing in abundanos, and some day tho
region will be a great stock-raising country.
While I was there we found all the goose
berries, huckleberries and raspberries wo
could eat. During the whole of July it was
light enough out of doors to read a book at
any time during the day or night.
“The natives of tills heretofore almost
unknown country are the Stick Indims.
They look something like our North Ameri
can Indians, but are not so warlike, on ac
count of their inferior numbers. They are
What I would call a mean, cowardly Bet.
They are not entirely cut oil from civiliza
tion, for while I was there I saw many of
them intoxicated. Tho stimulant they se
cured was in the Florida water which the
Ctiilkat Indians, with whom they trade, had
brought from the coast, I have also seen a
Stick Indian drink down the oontents of a
bottle of Perry’s pain killer, and from the
delightful expression that could be aeon on
the fellow’s face after he had
swallowed the pain killer one
would suppose that he regarded tbo stuff as
nectar. Florida water, which contains
alcohol, Peiry’s pain-killer and kerosene
are regarded by the Stick Indians as de
licious beverages. They frjquently got
pure whisky, but as the law is strict about
oarrying it to the interior the traders do not
venture often ti furnish it to the Indians.
But thore is no law azainst sending bottles
of kerosene, Florida water and pain-killer
to them, and wueu the Übilkat Indians go
to the St. Elias district they take large
quantities of those beverages with them in
exchange for which they get
furs. The choicest lynx, beaver
otter, mink, squirrel, moose aud
for furs come from that part of the coun
try. People generally do not think that
fox furs are valuable, but I have seen the
skin of a black fox sell on the coast for #IOO.
Tho ludiaas are expert trappers and catch
any number of animals without much dffi
cuity The Stick Indians are strictly a
forest people, and it was only recently that
any of them lived in houses. The majority
of thorn now live in caves and bush piles.
Their form of religion is a peculiar one.
They worship as their deities the raven and
the crow. . ,
"The Bt. Ellas district will some day
prove to be of great value, for thore is no
doubt tnat the wealth there is more valua
ble than the sum which the United Htates
paid for all of Alaska. I expected to hnd
rich deposits of gold and silver within easy

GEORGIA POLITICB.
Some Views Expressed by Congr®3S
man Leonidas LTringston.
Pro m the Washington Post.
Leonidas F. Livings.on. member of con
gress from the Atlanta iGs.) district, is a
middle-aged, stalwart-built man of the
raw-bone type, who looks a good deal like
the practical farmer he is, and whoso phys
iognomy blends intelligence and kindliness.
He is president cf the Georgia
State Farmers’ Alliance, and is
no norice in politics, haring been
a state legislator several terms before
his advent at the national capital. He
laughed heartily when shown an item at
the Metropolitan hotel yesterday from an
Atlanta paper, which stated that all the
Georgia alliance congressmen except Tom
Wats m, had gone back on their order, and
that Livington himso.f was trying to capt
ure the state for Gov. Hill.
“That is simply absurd,” was hit com
ment “The other day we electoi live dele
gates at Atlanta to the St. Louis convention
on Feb. 22, and every man in thedelaga ion
is o; posed to the formation of a third party.
I go to the convention as a dolegate a#
large.
“ Now, as to being in favor of Hill, I deny
that the Democratic party is bound to any
one man. I believe in measures before men.
Gov. Hill’s Elmira speech seemed a straight
out indorsement of free silver coinage, but
bis latest address is so much at variance
with the first that he will find himself com
pelled to do some explaining. I do not
believe the financial question to be
subsidiary to the tariff or of minor
importance. If anything, it is tbo
paramount issue, and if the Democratic
party fails to enact a free coinage bill, then
democracy is in deadly peril, not only in
Georgia, but, to the best of my belief, in
evory southern state. The south and the
west ara standing together, demanding that
this relief be afforded. A lower tariff is de
sirable, but money legislation will give the
quickest remedy and should be pressed more
urgently.
“I look confidently to the passage of a
free coiaago bill by the present House. If
one reaches the Senate that body will pees
it also, and I haven’t much doubt that I'resi
dent Harrison will make it a law by affixing
his signature."
ITALIAN CIUAKa
They era Terrors, and Nothing Worse
Can Possibly be Hmoked.
From the London Cigar and Tobacco World.
The deplorable quality of Italian oigars
has long been a by-word among smokers.
“Go to Italy, buy a cigar and die,” is an up
to dute adaptation of a famous quotation.
Even the very best of them would, on the
first trial, turn the stomach of au ostrich.
They ore long and thin, black and bitter,
ar.d have a straw run through them to
facilitate the draught. It would be impos
sible to imagine uny thiDg worse in the cigar
line. They ure so cheap, too, as (o stagger
belief. Italy is a poor country, un
fortunately, and it is getting poorer overy
year. The nation is frugal, and is content
to indulge itself with pleasuie3 and enter
tainments that are cheap. It is true
that in Romo and Florence and Ven
ice, and Milan one c in buy imported cigars;
but the trade in such luxuries is an exotic,
and is conducted mainly—nay, almost alto
gether—with foreigner!, particularly En
glish and American tourists, who always
have more money than they know what to
do with. The native Italians smoke the
native rattaii “oigarros,” and thank their
king that they are still cheap enough to be
purchasable. ' Fastidious Italians smoko
cigarettes, which they roll themselves. The
very poor in Italy—the lazzaroniof Naples,
for instance—smoko very seldom, or uot a
all, and In their abstention from au indul
gence which Is oiieap enough to come within
the means of even the most poverty-stricken
people of other countries they are remark
able.
The soldiers of the army of Italy are re
cruited, like those of other European na
tions, from all classes of her citizens. The
bulk of the n, of course, coin's from that
class which in overy country is the major
ity—namely, the poor. They get the poor
est fare, live the mo3t frugal of lives, gat
trifling wages that are generally in arrears,
and yet many young men eagerly join the
army because theirlot in the ranks, hard as
it is. is yet an improvement upon their lot
at home. Cigars in the Italian army are
part of the dally fare. Each solditr has his
allowance. Tue military cigars ara infe
rior even to those which civilians with
money in their pockets are able to buy, yot
they are eageriy puffed by the soldiers, but
it is a marvel that those who smoko one of
them survive to repeat the experiment.
it is a fait that the “cigarro" of the
Italian army, incredibly vile as it is, was
nevertheless adu terated by the government
monopoly under the administration of hSig.
Magliana, the minister of finance, in 1888.
A fiendish ingenuity was exhausted in im
parting to cigars which .Minister Mngliaua
furnished substances so foreigu to tobacoo,
and so undreamed of even by the most dis
honest cigar manufacturers of other
countries, tnat his fraud will live forever in
the history of the weed. The Magliani
cigars, so called in honor of the flr.auce
minister, as is the custom of Italy,
were made at the beginning of the
fiscal year, of 1888. It was
several mouths afterwards that the
fraud was investigated, and it was then
discovered that, according to a contempo
rary, they contained a piece of lime, some
powdered gypsum, a quantity of earth, a
piece of wood, and a pieoe of string. The'e
delightful adulterations, besides a very lit
tle of the nasty native tobacco grown, ii
Italy and some Kentucky hogshead leaf,
were the actual components of Magliani
cigars. A Roman newspaper, commenting
on the report of the investigating commit
tee, sarcastically observed that a mason with
liis trowel was only wanted in conjunction
with a dozen such cigars in order to build
, a 6-storied pul ice, for ell the materials
were there.

WISCONSIN’S SECESSION THREAT.
Tbs Resolutions of 184* Asserting Her
Rights Under tho Ordinance of 1737.
From Mew York dun.
Washington, Jan. 2.—Mr. Sanford, in
his paper on "State Sovereignty in Wiscon
sin ,” read before the historical association,
discussed the resolutions of the state legis
lature, particularly thoso of 1813, which
asserted Wisconsin’s claim to a strip cf
Nortnern Illinois, including Chicago, und*r
the provisions of the ordinance of 1787, and
in eu add re s to Congress threatened the use
of force if the claim of the state wns re
jected. The report of tho committee, upon
whi-h this resolution was founded, had de
clared that unless Wisoousion was com
pensated for the territory given to Illinois
sbe would "be a stare out of the union.”
The object of Mr. Sanford's paper was to
point out that this claim of Wisconsin wns
hared upon the view that the ordinance was
superior to the constitution, and upon the
view that a territory had a right to beoorae
a state when it possessed the requisite num
ber of inhabitants, even though congress
refused to admit it as a stato of the union.
It was pointed out that the legislature of
tho stato never striotiy threatened to secede,
but merely assorted its supposed rights un
der c,e ordinance. The attitude of the
legislature was determined, not by public
opinion in favor of the claim, but by the
activity of a few leaders whose personal
following enabled them to secure tho
pasjsge of tho resolutions. The atiitude of
the people of the northern part of Illinois
in favor of union with Wisconsin was
explained as due to tho heavy debt incurred
iu Illinois for pu lio improvements, most of
which were constructed south of the dis
puted strip. Southern Wisconsin and
Northern Illinois had economio interests iu
common in being the region of the lead
mines. The movement of the people of the
strip in favi rof annexation to Wisconsin
wns also explained as due to the fact that
Northern Illinois and Southern Wisconsin
belongs! to the stream of emigration from
the northern statoi, while Middle nnil
Southern Illinois were peopled by the
sou'hera emigration. In conclusion tho
nuth r examined the assertions regarling
the rights of Wisconsin under the erdinan e,
and found them unsupported by the federal
oourts.
