6 GREAT SUBURBAN HANDICAP. i jean reraid and INS I* LEAD THE I*l ST. Event of Hie llnolni; A'ear to Take Plnce on the Coney Inland Trnok To-ilny—Jolm llriicht From the Went In Expected to Show I'p Well—Ethelheri Likely to lie the Favorite—Other Haclnjc \ewn. New York. June 15.- Although there have been three race meetings in the metropolitan district thus far this year, the real thins does not come until to-mor row. when the Coney Island race track is opened, with the Suburban as the chief event of the card. Most of those on the card for the Subur ban have been to the race® several times this year, and are fit to run for their lives. The list of entries, with the probable jockies, as far as ascertained, is as fel lows: Etheibert, 130. Maher; Imp, lift, Tabor; Jean Beraud, 128, Turner; John P>r ffht, 119. Sj>encer; Petrueio, 102, Rauseh; Kin ley Mack, 125, McCue; Gulden, ltX>, Odom; Prince MeClurg, 117, ; Survivor, ICO, Henry. This is a choice lot. and of diem at least three are counted upon as having a royal chance to win. At the top of the list is Etheiltert, winner of the Metropolitan handicap, and conqueror of Jan JVraud in a match race at the distance. The Jean Beraud. one of the beat of the three year-olds of last season, a royally btel animal and with a gieat turn of speo I, and that grand old mare Imp, winner of last year’s Suburban. John Bright conus out of the West with a big reputation, and is said to be very swift; Kinley Mack, winner of the Brook lyn Handicap this year, but In the mud; Petrouoio, wlio wbn the Brooklyn Derby yesterday in fast time, with five pounds more thnn lie will have to carry to-mor row, and Sarmation, ihe fast 3-year-old, and others more or less speedy, are there. Etheibert probably will be made the fav orite, and there is also little doubt that Jean Beraud and Imp will have a lot of following, to say nothing of the men who will pin their faith to John Bright and the lightweights. The track is now In good condition, and will he fast as it ever was when the bugle calls the horses to the post, if no more rain falls. SENSATION \L SALE OF < OLTS.

FHEXTH REPORTS FROM CHINA. Swift Cruiser Ordered to Reinforce the Fleet nt Tnkn. Paris, June 15, 1:35 p. m.—At a cabinet council to-day the Minister of Foreign. Af fairs, M. Delcasse, announced that the telegraph line to Pekin had again been cut. The latest dispatch from the French minister there, he added, was dated the evening of June 12, and said the Chinese government had informed him it would not oppose the foreign detachments en tering Pekin. The French consul nt Tien Tsin, M. Delcasse announce!, had telegraphed that all was quiet within the French conces sion there, which are guarded by French and Russian troops. Finally, M. Delcasse said, a swift, first class cruiser had been ordered to proceed to Taku to reinforce the French naval divison at that place. MIMS TERR V NOT MI’RDERFJD.

Washington, June 15.—The cabinet meet ing to-day lasted until 1 o’clock. Much of the Cme was devoted to the discussion of the Chinese situation, which is regarded as critical. % The severance of communication with Pekin, and the fn* ure to hear from Min ister Conger for rtxty hours, naturally creates considerable anxiety, and the complications in connection with possi ble future contingencies were talked over; but nothing further will be done until later advices are received. No effort will be spared, howevvr. should the occasion arise to protect the lives and property of Americon citizens. Southern Provinces Quiet. London.

Jacob 8. Alien, who is uttondlng Mabel, says he believes the little girl to be practically out of dunger. although the nature of the case makes It difficult to say just what turn It may take. The high temperature has been reduced and the child Is no longer suffer ing the excruciating pain she experienced Saturday nlgat, when the first symptoms of poisoning appeared. She is very weak as ihe result of the raging fever and be cause of the slight nourishment allowed her. The sad case of the two Seely t hil- j Oren has attracted the attention of bota nlsts generally, and these scientists de- , t-lare that parents cannot be too careful in guarding their children against dangers which lurk in woods and fields from pois onous vegetation.

Gr*nt**| Source of IlnnKcr. Although the plants that may cause death when used as food or medicine are numerous, the grt-atesi danger is from the inedible mushroom. The questionA>f mush rooms grew to be so important a one that a couple of years ago the Department of Agriculture issued an Illustrated pamphlet treating on poisonous mushrooms. From ihe dlrcular it is learned that at least thirty species of edible mushrooms grow in the District, and at least fotir species that are known to be poisonous, and sev eral others that are under suspicion. In the pamphlet, which was prepared by Botanist Frederick V. Covillt, the advice is given to mushroom gatherers to learn to know one or two of the most common tqveJies of the edible fungi and to confine themselves to these until they are sure of their knowledge of others. 1 he Kentucky coffee tree, a plant* great ly resembling the honey* locust, and often mistaken for it, has been responsible for a number of cases of poisoning. It has a j pod that is hard to distinguish from the locust, and as the pod of ihe locust is sweet and much eaten by children, there is always danger of a mistake b* ing made with serious results. The poison of the tree is not confined to the pods, however, being found in the leaves and blossoms. The plant has a yellowish flower and blooms about the same time as the locust, but lacks the perfume of the latter. A\ titer Hemlock Fatal. Among the other native plants that have been eaten with fatal results is false hel lebore, which grows in damp meadows and along brooks, and is sometimes mis taken for marsh marigold, having clusters of yellowish green flowers and lcfrg-t stem less leaves. Numerous deaths, especially of cattle, with an occasional human vic tim, are caused by eating the roots of the water hemlock, which are mistaken for horseradish, parsnips, artichokes, and oth er edible roots. The plant grows in marsh es or swampy places, attains a bight of from three to *dgln fci, has finely dis sected leaves and white flowers. The dan ger of mistakes, however, lies in the roots, which ought always to be safely identified by an examination of the plant. The ordinary hemlock, kno*wn sometimes as "stinkweed,” is also poisonous. Its seed is sometimes eaten for anise, its leaves for parsley, and its roots for pars nips. U van always be safely identified by bruising the leaves, which then emit a mouse-like odor. < uses of poison have, also arisen from Use Of the jimson weed for medicine. The plant is well-known for its rank ill smelling leaves, its bell-shaped flowers, and its prickly four-valved seed pods. The plant has useful medical properties, but should only be used iby persons familiar with its effects. Poison Oak or Ivy. The poison ivy, or poison oak. as it is sometimes called, is probably the best known of the plants that poison by con tact. It is a climbing or trailing shrub, with variable, three-foliated leaves, aerial rootlets and greenish flowers appearing in May and June. The smooth, waxy fruii or berry, often remains on' the Plant until late in the winter. The leaves often resemble those of the box elder, but their margin is sometimes almost | entire . They differ from those of (he Virginia creeper In having onlv three leaflets, instead of five. Poison ivy K rotvs i everywhere, in open brush, in ravines, on Ihe borders of wools, and along ihe road side and cultivated fields. The poison oak proper differs from the iv\ mainly in its leaflets, which are somewhat thicker and smaller, more nearly elliptical, and less sharply lobod. Th. poison Rumae, which is nearly re lated to ivy and oak, except that it is a shrub instead of a vine, has long pin nate leaves, cash with from seven to thirteen entire leaflets. The wood has a tine sulphurous odor, whMi, together with the very prominent leaf seats, enables ii to lx easily distinguished. Cases of poisoning ay contact sometime* arises from lady slipp. .s, a plant with white flowers striped with purple and growing In swamps. Such ease- however are very rare. All kinds of laurel are slightly poisonous to tin- touch, hut are handled with impunity by most pir-ons. Queer (hitters of it (ins Well. From tlie Howling Green (Ky.) Journal.

Dim & Co.'s Weekly Review of Trade to-morrow wi 1 eay: A season of declining prices is never wholly agreeable to business men whos stocks on hand are losing part of Her value. Yet there are times -when return to the highest prosperity in business is not possible, except through reidjustment of prices. The highest prosperity the country had ever reached, prior to the panic, was in 1892, with price's averaging i.ot quite 76 per cent, of their average in After j great depression for several years ihe highest point reached with last year’s te covery was 80 per cent., March 18. but the gradual yielding has alieady returned ihe general average of p ices to a shade 1 s than 75 per cent., practically, whe e ii was with the highest prosperity in 1892. The output of iron furnaces June 1 was 296,376 tons weekly, an increase of 2,526 tons, making the yield only 1,638 tons less thnn at the highest point ever reached, Feb. 1. But the increase of unsold stoc-k3 to 339,480 tons, about fM.OOO tons in May, discloses a larger decline than was ex pected in the new business, upon which nearly all the works and furnaces have now to rely, and reports <hat furnaces of considerable capacity have been already closed this month seem likely to he cor rect. Within a week or two labor organizations and the employers wi” be discussing new demands for higher wages and shorter hours, and the clos ing oj. many works for lack of orde.-s will have much influence about that time. I’iices are gradually changing, antlira ce No. 1 to S2O and Pittsburg grey forge ro $17.50, and sales of bars are reported there at $1.50. After the closing of fur naces and works has more nearly ad justed present supply to the demand, the iact that many large operations ar? hold lack until prices hove been readjusted will have its influence. < iitton iljirl Wool 'lnrket*. Reconstruction moves slowly In cotton goods, though a few quotations are slight-* \y reduced, the uncertain shifting in the raw cotton market having some influence, and the halting of exports to China on ac count of the interior s4rife there. As European manufacture is likely to be af fected In ihe same way, the present con d’tlons help those who look for lower prices In the goods market. No further chong° appears this w’eek in che* wool markets, although their s4agna tion, with irregular prices for goods be yond favored staples, still indicates a downward tendency. Silk and hemp also have gone lower, and the recent fall in n bber helps new business. Wheat has been advanced nearly 3 cents, with accounts of extensive injury lo growing grain, and the exports from Atlantic ports,. Hour included, have been in w r o weeks of June 5,937,187 bushels, against 8,526,801 last year, and corn ex ports 6,000,462 bushels, against 5,812.959 last year. The active movements on the farms seems to discredit many accounts of in jury, although receipts have been some what smaller than last year. Failure® for the first week of June were in amount, $2,118,810. of which $1,092,870 were in manufacturing, and $833,236 in trailing concerns. Failures for the w’eek have been 162 in the United States’, against 136 last year, and 21 in Canada, against 18 last year. WAS WITTY AS WELL AS WISE. Good Stories Arc Told of nn Irtish .1 udgo of High Repale. From the London Telegraph. Lord Morris, who has served his coun try in a judicial capacity for the long period of thirty-three years, is a repre sentative of one of the old families known as the “tribes of Galway.” Lord Morris has never lost that mellifluous brogue which distinguishes west of Ireland folk. This characteristic- provides the ground work for at least two stories told of him. On one occasion the noble lord, twice an occupant of the Irish l>ench, was present at a wedding in company with Judge Keogh. Morris was lamenting that he had forgotten to throw an old shoe after the bride and bridegroom, when Keogh remarked: “Throw’ your brogue after them; it will do just as well.” At an other time I*/ord Morris was sitting at the four courts as ford chief justice of Ire land, when a young barrister from the north rose nervously to make his first motion. The judge had declared that no one listening to himself would ever take him for anything but an Irishman, which was perfectly correct. But Galway could not understand Antrim. The lord chief justice leaned over the bench to ask the associate where the barrister hailed from. “County Antrim.” was the response. Then asked his lordship of the official: “Did ye iver come across sich a fright ful accint in the course of yer loife?” When I:\l Morris first went the Con naught circuit, where he had practiced before hie elevation to the bench at the • nrlv age of 39. he gave many specimens of h’s native wit. At one assize town the Judges arrived late, and the grand jury, after being sworn in. sent down a true bill in a very simple ease, intended to fill up the spare time of the court for the “heel" of the evening. It was a ease of the abduction of a small farmer’s 1 daughter bv a shopkeeper. who could not urringe the matter of dowry to the satis faction of his sweetheart’s relations. The accused had met the maid near his shop and had kept her, half-resisting, half consenting on his premises in company with an elderly female relative. The of fense was, therefore, only of a technical character. Charles O’Malley made a wonderful speech for the prisoner, in the course of which he told the frieze-coated jurors that the\ were the most intelligent, high-minded and naturally gifted men he hod ever addressed. Justice Morris whew the projver time came, said to the jury: .“You have seen my friend Mr O'Malley's amusing |w?rformance. Dis mi-s it from your minds, and don't go homo to your honest wives with peacock’s feathers in your hats to proclaim the dis i tine*ion he piles upon you. I am com- I polled to direct you to find* a verdict of guilty in this case, but you will easily see that I think it is o trifling thing, which i I I regard as quite unfit to occupy my time.. | It is more valuable than yours. At least. ' it ‘s much better paid for.

Then, turning to the sheriff, he said: “Let's go.’’ Before the “boy” was clear j of the do k the judge's head appeared i again “Marry the girl at once,” h* said, "and God bless you both.” One day it fell to the lot of L#ord Mor- ! ris to hear u case nt Coleraine, in which damages Were claimed from a veterinary I surgeon for having poisoned a valuable ! horse. The ispue depended upon whether ! a certain number of grains of a partic ular drug could be safely administered I to the animal. A dispensary doctor j proved flat he had often given eight grains to a man. from which it was to lie ! inferred that twelve for a horse was not excessive. 'Never mind yer eight grains, docther. ' said the Judge. “We all know that some poisons are cumulative in ef fect. and ye may go to the edge of ruin with impunity. Butted me this: The tweive grains—wouldn’t they kill the divtl himself if ho swallowed them?” The doc- THOMSON’S “Glove-Fitting” Corsets tTMK* are comfortable the first time you put them on.

In later years Ird Morris has always followed with keen concern the fortunes of his country, and he Is credited with sundry caustic observations concern ing home rule. An ardent separatist once, observed to him that, 4n his opinion, Mr. Gladstone woe n heaven-born genius. Then," said Lord Morris, “may it be a long time before heaven Is again in an interesting condition.” Some day, pos sibly, the noble and learned lord may be induced to write h4s reminiscences. They should be rich in incident and from the autobiographer’s standpoint would pos sess the advantage of distinguishing the actual from the apocryphal. A Collection of \Vnll|apern.
