SON THE TURF AT THIRTEEN. LITTLE DAN McCARTHY. THE OWNER OF LAST YEAR'S DERBY WINDER. The Wonder of Sporting Men-Beta His Money Like a Man and Never Weakens -Always Accompanied by His Father Buying Colts Against Odds. (From the Chicago Herald.) 'That is the owner of last year's Derby Winner." "Who-that old-looking man?" "No, the boy." "Nonsense! He can't be more than 12 years olt" "It's a fact, though, and you came within one of his age; he is 13." The boy referred to was young Dan McCarthy. He is now a prominent character on all race courses. He is a tall, well-built boy for his age, has a bright, open face and a pair of broad shoulders. He dressesvery neatly, usual ly wearing a black cloth suit. The jack et is in the style of a cutaway. The knickerboekers fasten tightly at the knee. He: wears lack.: stockings and Oxford tie shoes. His vest is always ornamented with a heavy gold watch ebin, at the end of which. is a horse timer;.- He also bas pinned on it medal which he won ats country fair for ex hibting a. ny. A black- derby hat stck jau tly on the back' of his head is the usual covering for that important part of his body. The boy is a precious youngster.. He knows a good deal about horses for a bog of his years andis never backward in joming in any conversation about the merits of any. thoroughbred, whethearacehorseof thepastorpesent. He bets freely and talks of winning and losing with the indifference of a better and gambler of five times his years. Dan always has a body guard. Wher ever he goes an odd-looking man is seen very near him. This man is his father, D. J. McCarthy. He is very little taller than his son, is a slightly built man, is dark, wears a black mustache and a very ordinary suit of clothes. He is never seen without a big drab beaver on his hea4, such as used to be popular thirty yearsgo before -silk hats were much worn. . J- NecCarthy is the shoit end of the coibination. Whatever his son says islaw, and the father has implicit faith in young Dan's judgement. D. J. Mcrhyearly last year was a truck driver on Mr. Haggi's Ranch del Paso in California. He wanted to beoome a turfite and own race horses. The oppor tipitycame to him through his son. The three-year-old colt C. H. Todd was for sale. He was not much thought of by his owner, and was believed to be in a - bad way generally. Young Dan wanted to , him, but did not havethe money. Mr. in helped him, and very soon O. H.Todand $140 changed hands, Todd goingto the MoCarthys. The colt was bandled very carefully and soon be gan to improve, and thenthe MeCarthys bega to train him. By the time the icago meeting opened, hewas moving very well and poung McCarthy thought the American Derby, in which the colt 'was entered, within his reach. The colt received a preparation and every - ery promising. The Mo had very little money and they to-keep the 'o dreo that they oIdget oddsagainst him the day of herae ad- ina pile of money. H2ow to give him a trial and elude the touts was the difficualty' "Try him at midight," said the boy. And trieat midight he was.

"Wel,Ihave alot of forfeits against that horse.. I wantto collect." "I know nothing about the' forfeits. are not mine." u rchased the horse, and, as I unasadit, in our coutry the forfeits go 'wifth~e horse." "You'll have to see the secretary about that." "Well, I think it looks very _queer," and McCarthys walked indignantly A few days ago the McCarthys, father and son, caused some fun in the Sheepe head railroad station. They were wait ing for a train to take themnto Brooklyn. There seemed to be nothing to bet on. Suddenl te boy exclaimed: "nhudred dollars I walk further on the rails than you." "A bet," said the father." The two started on the down track and walked toward Brooklyn, Both got along well for a few minutes. when suddenly a train was seen coming on the down track. The spectators begin to grow interested and many bets were made about who would leave the track first. The two walkers kept on. The train gduly got nearer. The father looke at Dan as though he would call 4 c=htonf bnt thba anvH111rptan. A t last when the train was right on them the father weakened and the boy scooped in the money. Sorento, a very good two-year-old in their stables, won a race recently. The odds against the colt were good, and the stake was worth $5,000. After the race young McCarthy was doing the honore to some of his friends at the bar. "Glad you won." said one old turfite patronizingly to the boy. "Back him for any?" "Yes, I won about $3,000," said the boy; "ought to have won more. Join us?" The turfite didn't mind if he did. "I never let one of my horses run loose," said Dan, "and if they are good enough to win I back them well." It sounds odd to hear the boy's shrill soprano talking of horses, races and bet ting with men who have grown gray in the business. It seems to come natural with him to talk of horses. He does not drink anything except sarsaparilla and such drinks, and does not smoke cigar ettes as most of the boys on race tracks do. He is a fine judge of a horse, and at the sale of yearlings bid well for what he fancied. If he thought he had gone high enough he stopped and none of the persuasive powers of the auctioneer had any effect with him. "No," he said, "he wants the colt more than I do; let him haveit," speak ing of a colt on which he had been out bid. THE MAGNITUDE OF INDIA. Ancient Nations. Great Cities and an Enor mous Population. (From the Fortnightly reriew.) For eighty years, at least, writers have endeavored to bring home to Englishmen the vastness of India, but, so far as can be perceived, they have failed. The Briton reads what they say, learns up their figures, and understands their descriptions, but fails, for all his labor to realize what india is-a continent ai large as Europe west of the Vistula, and with 30,000,000 more people, fuller of ancient nations, of great cities, of varie ties of civilization, of armies, nobilitiels, priesthoods, organizations for every con ceivable purpose from the speading of great religion down to systematic mur der. There are twice as many Bengalese as there are Frenchmen, the undo stanees, properly so called, outnumbered the whites m the United States; the Mahrattas fill Spain, the people of the Punjab with Scinde are double the pop lation of Turkey, and I have named bui four of the more silent divisions. Everythirg is on the same bewildering scale. The fighting people of India whose males are as big as ourselves, ai brave as ourselves, and more regardless of death than ourselves, number at less 120,000,000, equal to.

An evening paper yesterday pnibished'az alleged dispatch from Chicago to the effect that there was consternation ,at the War Office. It stated that a representative of England has been discovered who -had found out the secret of our torpedo system. In the garb of an American he had been hobnobbing with our 'naval officers, and, finding that the torpedoes had been pat ented by their inventors, bad succeeded in obtaining copies of all the drawings. These he had sent to the English Government, and in consequence the British lion ws now in a poition to roar and growl all he pleased. Uncle Sam could do nothing, as his great torpedo system, on which is re lied as a means to defend his coast, wasa secret no longer. There were a number of people, however, who believed the dispatch to be a canard. Among these was Admiral Gherardi, who is in command of the Navy Yark. "I do not believe there is the least grain of truth in the story," he said to the Star reporter. "In fact, such a thing couldsnot happen. The invention was sold to the Government and no other could have it. t would be impossible for any one to ob tain copies of the plans. The whole thing is nothing more than a would-be scare." N. Y.

JUDGE TERRY AND HIS WIFE IN JAIL The Court Charged With Being Bribed and a Riot Ensues. SAN FRANCISCO, September 3.-The cel ebrated Sharon divorce case, which has oc cupied the attention of the Pacific coast for a number of years, culminated today in a sensational incident which resulted in placing Sarah Althea Sharon, now Mrs. David S. Terry. in jail for thirty days. and her husband, Judge Terry, for six months. The Supreme Court of California a few months ago, sustained the decision of the State Superior Court, which declared that Mrs. Terry hadtbeen legally married to the .late ex-United States Senator William Sharon and that she was entitled to a por tion of Sharon's estate. A short time after the announcement of the decision by the State Supreme Court the executors of the will of the late William Sharon made ap plication to the United States Circu.it Court for a bill to revive and carry into execution the decree of the Circuit Court entered Sep tember,.1885, in the suit of William Sharon against Sarah Alth'ea Hill to obtain a de cree adjuding certain papers in her pos session purporting to be marriage contract between them to be a forgery and directing its cancellation and enjoying its use in any manner. The decree entered by the Circuit Court in. this cases was in favor of the plaintiff and declared that thealleged marriage con tract was a forgery; but in the meantime the Sharon divorce suit was pending in the State courts and William Sharon died. When the executors recently applied to. the Circuit Court for-h~biH of revision, Sarah Althea Hill,i-ho- i i since become MrS. Terry, entered a demurrer, and the de cision today was rendered upon that de murrer, which the court overruled. The decision, which was very lengthy, was read by Associate Justice Field, of the United States Supreme Court, and was concurred in by Judge Sawyer, of the Circuit Court, and Judge Sabine, of the District Court. The former decision of Judge Sawyer, declaring the alleged marriage contract a forgery and ordering the defendant to de liver it up for cancellation, is sustained, and the executors are given the right to handle Mr. Sharon's property untrammeled by any action on the part of Mrs. Terry. The announcement made several days ago that a decision in the Sharon case would be rendered today drew a large crowd to the United States court room. About 200 lawyers, besides all persons directly inter . ested in the case, occupied the enclosure immediately in front of the Judge. ACCUSATIONS AGAINST THE COURT. Judge David T. Terry, who has been the chief counsel for his wife during the entire litigation, sat alongside his wife today and both paid close attention to the reading of the decision. Mrs. -Terry appeared very nervous at the outset and as the reading progressed her agitation increased. Finally, when Judge Field was about half through reading, Mrs. Terry jumped to her feet and - asked the Judge if he was going to order her to give up her marriage contract. The I Judge told her to sit down, and Mrs. Terry's face turned white with passion, b and she cried: r "Justice Field, we hear that you have been bought. We would like to know if that is so and what figures you hold your self at. It seems that a person can't get justice in this court unless he has a sack." Judge Field turned to Marshal Franks and said: "Marshal, remove that woman from this court room." The Marshal advanced towards Mrs. Terry. She took no notice of him,. but broke out with oaths and vulgar language. Franks grasped her by the arm and in an instant Judge Terry arose, and exclaiming I that no living man should touch his wife, dealt Franks a terrible blow on the neck iwith his fist, which sent the marshal reeling across the floor. Franks regained his feet and, with several deputies and bystanders, Srushed upon Terry and quickly removed him. JUDGE TERRY DRAwS A KNIFE. Mrs. Terry was also taken from the room and locked in the Marshal's office. A Dep uty was placed at the door, when Terry advanced upon him and demanded admis sion, which the Deputy refused. Terry drew from his pocket a dangerous looking dirk, with a blade eight Incheslogan with acurse held it above his head decar ing that he would stab any man who tried to keep him away. Several persons at once jumped upon him and tried to take the knife away. A desperate struggle fol lowed. All the men fell to the floor, and the knife was finally taken from Terry without any one being injured. Terry was then locked in the room with his wife. A satchel which Mrs. Terry had Idropped in the court room during the ex citemnent was found to contain an English bull-dog revolver with all chambers loaded. Marshal Franks states that she was trying to open the satchel just before she was piut out of the court room. The Marshal en tered the room where the- two were con fined, and Mrs. Terry at once made a vio lent attack upon him about the face and head. She was soon quieted, and a strong guard placed in the room. TAKEN TO JAIL. The wildest excitement had prevailed in the court room .and corridors during the disturbance, but as soon as quiet was re stored Judge Field resumed the reading of the decision. When hej.bad concluded, the court took a reess andi theJudges re tired to their chambers. Two hours later they again appeared in the court room and announced the penalty they had to inflict upon 'Judge Terry and his wife. Neithcr of the parties were allowed- In the court while sentence was pronounced. Judge. Field ordered that Terry be Imprisoned in the county jail of Alameda for six months, and that Mrs. Terry be imprisoned thirty days. No alternative in the way of fi was allowed, and the prisoners were taken to jail this atternoon. David S. Terry was formerly Judge of the Supreme Court of this State, and while holding that position in 1856 became in volved in a quarrel with David C. Brod erick, the United States Senator frotn Cali fornia. A duel followed and Broderick was killed. Kiss the Pretty Baby. For the benefit of those who are at a loss to know just what to say on seeing a new baby for the first time, and who natu rally feel that they must say something, we give the following list of expressions, any and all of which are commonly used, there being no patent or copyright on them. Whether you shall offer to kiss the infant depends somewhat on its age and appear ance and the extent to which you are will ing to sacrifice yourself in order to please the baby's mamma. The baby itself doesn't care a picayune for your feelings or your kisses, but you are expected to say: What a cunning little thing! Bright-eyed little chap, isn't he? Why, how large he is! I don't think 1 ever saw so young a child look around so. How much does it weigh? What lovely, silky hair! Looks ever so much like you! What a rosebuddy of a mouth! Do let me see his toes! How very wise it seems! 1 really believe the little thing under stands every word we say! Oh, what a splendid big boy he is! Oh, what a daisy little girl she is! Any of the above will please the ordi nary mamma. It is at your own risk that you speak the truth and say: Ugh! What a horrid, red, wrinkled little thing it isi It simply doesn't look like anything! Oh, what a big, fat, ugly thing! I would't touch it for the world! Ugh! I suppose I must kiss it, but I hte tn! WILL GOBBLE up THE SILVER. A Scheme to Control the Silver Mines of the World--The rrojectors. NEw YoRK, Seplcinber G.-A gigantic trust scheme has just. come to light, the ultimate object of which means the enn trol of the silver market of the world by a syndicate of capitalists in this city and Mexico. TL.e news of the enterprie reached here yesterday morning through telegraphic aispatches from ,lexico, and has caused consid--rable talk on the street. The big bank of the syndicate will be situated in the City of Mexico, but under control of New York bankers. It will be known as the International and Mortgage Bank of Mexico, which is the outgrowth of the Banco Hypotecario, a bank now in existence in Mexico which has had the right to issue mortgage bonds against mort gages on real estate not to exceed 50 per cent. of the mortgaged property. For mhore than a year, it is said, the syndicate of bankers have been dickering with the Mexican Government to get control of the charter of the Mexican Mortgage Bank, and have only recently succeeded. Under this charter the new concern has a right to issue silver and gold certificates, payable all over the world, based on silver deposits, and by using these certificates as the mode of settlement between this country and Europe, it is conceived that eventually the silver will increase in quantityin this coun try, and in the course of 'time the certifi cates, and not the silver, would reach Eng land. This would result in the quotations being made on the American certificates, and not on the Indian Exchange bills, 'which are now regulating the: price of ail d-er, from the fact that theentire Eastern possessions of England use nothing but silver. On the other hand, some, persons think that when the real objects of. the syndicate come to light it will be seen thatthe move is to negotiate for the purchase of all the mines in the world for the purpose of com pelling the Government to pay a higher price for the refined metal. In 1887 there was a production of nearly $150,000,000 of silver in the world, the principal portion of which came from the United States and Mexico. Taking for granted that the syn dicate could carry on operations on the same plan as the Standard Oil Company or the .French Copper Syndicate, which cor ralled all the copper mines in the world and caused an increase of from 9 cents to 16 cents in the price, the syndicate would be come immensely wealthy through the loss of the Government. The Government now saves from 16 to 20 cents on each dollar turned out of the mint. This could be greatly diminished at the option of the Sil ver Trust. For such a syndicate to be formed, how ever, it is estimated that it would take at least $200,000,000 to control the mining productions of the world. It is said that the leading spirit in the en terprise is Robert Colegate, of the Atlantic White Lead Company. He is out of town, and his representative knew of no such scheme. It is said that .H. B. Hollins & Co.. of No. 18 Wall Street, are also active movers in the building up of the syndicate, and it was stated yesterday that their agent in Mexico will have sent full particulars of the purchase of the Mexican bank next week. It was rumored that Conrad N. Jordan, Piesident of the Western National Bank, was a prime mover in the scheme, but he denied it emphatically. It is claimed by one of the company of H. B. Hollins & Co. that the new bank in Mexico will be the largest in the country, and its ownership will be divided into thirds-one-third in Mexico and the other two-thirds in the United States and Europe. He said that the president of the new bank would probably be Mr. P. Martin. Crushing a Trades Union. C _CAGO, September 5.-A local paper says: "Telegraph operators along the line of the Lake Shore and Michigan Southern Railroad are in a state of anxiety over the recent order from the company to sever their connection with the Order of Rail way Telegraphers or vacate their positions. It is reported that the company has been making preparations to accomplish this for the past two months, and has secured men to fill every yacancy likely to occur under the order. A member of the Brotherhood of Telegraphers said that if it was true that such an order was issued, the Order of Railway Telegraphers would have to back down, for it was not strong, and its constitution prevented any strike. The men would quit the union or leave the rail way service. "What have you got in the shape of oranges?" "Only round ones, sir!" Business is like a clock. When it runs down it should be wound up. "Why can't they make these dummies inore lifelike?" said a facetious chap; halt ing with a friend in' fi-ont of, a clothing store, and slapping a figure.a vigorous blow on the cheek. The "dmummy" turned aud denly, let fly his left, and knocked the facetious chap off his pins. The latter concluded that the dummy was a little too lifelike. TH E LADIES' FAVORITE. NEVER OUT OF ORDER.
