Slncethe track at Morris I'ark wa placed in odltlon for Ralloplnir last week there has been inch activity among the stablca quartered tier. Trainer Tom J. Healey has a promising jot of twenty-five, mostly two-year-olds. They tLre been doing shed work for several weeks, jnd up to the snow flurries showed capital form h their breathers. M. M.

Among the communications received by Com modore Jarvls during his visit to London, not one exhibits tho friendly feollng of roprnentn tlve Hrltlsh yachtsmen ns does tho following from II. Hechstnll Smith, Socrctary of tho Orn ish Yacht Knclng Association: Dear Sir: The council of the Yacht Ilaclug Asso ciation dralrm me to express to you the slncei 0 satis faction with which It welcomes the action of the North American Yacht IlaelntAHux-latton In deputing yourself and Mr.Macdonnugh to coiiTera tothe powil. bllltyof bringing the Ilrllluli and American rules of yaiht measurement Into approximation, so that the racbta of either country may compete In ths other without aerloua disadvantage. The council ta con acluus ot the very great difficulty wt.lch would be experlenerd In any attempt to agree upon one and the same rule for both coun tries, and If such OBtrfm-nt weru attained It la ot opinion that differences of climate would cauBe the evolution or rather diverging types ot yachts on theoppoalt sides of the Atlantic. At the same time, the council, uudrrstandlng that the general desire of American yaehtimen, like that of our own. la for a rule which w II produce whoUsome and roomy sea boats, feels ronlMent that youraa.o clatlon will dh able to aeslmtlate Hrltlsh and Amerl can racing yachts In type, by aJoptlr.g some formula conceived upon almllar lluea to our own. ytt with aueh varlathns as the conditions of tho American climate nad racing courses may render neeeaaary. lu reply to tho particular qurHtlona which you have addressed to the council, t am to say that the meas urement rule length, plus the breadth added to ,5 per cent, or the rlrth and C per cent, of the square root of tho rail area, the whole divided by two equatu, the linear rating, which has now been In operatlou In British watera for two seasons, appears to give general satisfaction at preeeut. It was adopt ed In order to correct the tendency ot the former rule. length multiplied b nail area, the product divided by 0.00U," to produce yachts ot very small displacement aud sail area relative to their hull di mensions. The operation of the new formula has been decidedly such as was expected by Ha frnmer. In conclusion the council liopea that after your aa .Delation has thoioughly tested whatever rule It maj finally adopt, another opportunity may be afforded for a conference between tbo representative, or the two organizations, with a -.lew to harmonising such change. In the respective formula- as may ultimately appear to be desirable. Tho annunl meeting of the Brooklyn Yacht Club will be held at the St. Charles Hotel on Wednesday evening. In addition to tho elec tion of officers the Committee on Revision of tho By-laws will luako a cumplcto report. jtiri.K unooTixa. Tliree. Kfatcbea Decided at tho Seventh Begl saent Ranges.

TALK AtlUVT 11IQJ1 ENTRANCE JFEES A Nit ONESIDED CONDITION. Horsemen VTboPalrenlse UaraeealtaceaThlak Te Have ta Caaoede Tea Maek (malt Returns rvr tae lavealDaeat The Raaalas; Tarf Ueveraed by a Mere liberal mat era. Tho receipt of twenty-eight subscription! for the $10,000 Charter Oak Ptirso of tho Hartford Grand Circuit meeting furnishes a notable illus tration of the unprofitable basis on which own era race their horses on the trotting turf. Ac cording to tho conditions governing the raco, each subscriber Is required to pay $500, or B per cent, of the nominal valuo of tho purse. In equal monthly Installments, botwocn Feb. 10, when subscriptions clotod, and Aug. 10. when horses must be named. Subscriptions are transferable up to tho dateot tho final payment, so that an owner who finds his own horse not good enough to win may sell his entry and thus dropout without nocossarlly forfeiting tho amount he tins paid ln. This foaturo ot the conditions Is counted upon to keep nil subscriptions allvo to tbo last,' In tho hands of ono owner or another, and tho managers of tho meoting expect to seo nbout twenty trotters respond to tho starting hell when tho race Is callod next Soptembor. If their expectations aro realized tho entrance fees will foot up noatly $11,000, leaving to them a profit of something llko $1,000, exclusive ot gate rccolpts and privileges, Viowcd from tho standpoint of the horse owners, they will have to bear the oxpenso of buying, training, and shipping their trotters to the track, furnish tho entertainment which draws the crowd, and then receive as their reward about 75 per cent, of tho money which they havo themselves paid In to tho association for the privilcgo of starting their horses. This one-sided condition of things is not peculiar to tho Charter Oak Purso or to the Hartford meeting. It exists on all trotting tracks. Horsemen encounter It wherever they enter their trotters in early closing events on the cash forfolt plan. Instead of adding tho surplus of entrance money to tho purio and thus returning to horsemen at least tho amount paid In by them. It Is tho nlmost universal rule among associations lo retain all cntranco money ln exce.es of tho advertised valuo of tho purse, few genulno stakes being offered. Such n thing as added money Is virtually unknown In harness racing. Horsemen who campaign trotters look with envy on the liberal conditions and tho low scalo of cntranco fees In vog'uo on tho running turf. Take tho Prenkncss Stakes of the Brooklyn Jockey Club's spring meeting ns an example. The stako is guaranteed to bo worth at least $2,000. nnd If thoontranco money execods this amount such surplus Is added lo theguaranteed value ot tho stake. Tho entrance feo is $50. or a per cent,, and of this amount only $15 be comes due before the day of Iho raco. Accord ingly. If tbo horse goos wrong between Jan. 10, the date of closing tho entry books, and tho date of tho race ln May or Juno, the owner loses only $15. If only three or four entries had been made the stake would stand Just the snme. and If only two horses woro to go to tho post on the day of the race they would get all tho money. Comparo I his wltn an announced stako ot tho Portland sunuiur trotting meeting this year. There the entranco feo is 5 per cent, of tho Iiursc, payable in four monthly installments ictween March 10 and June 18. Tho 1 ace is not to be trotted until August, so that each nominator must pay tho last installment of tbo starting fee nearly two months beforo the dale of the race, and three of the four payments must bo made so early ln the season that no Northern trainer can get a very trim lino on tho form of his horse when he puts up the money. In caso the entrance fees exceed the face value ot the stake, the surplus is, retained by the association. Hut tho track managers reserve, the right to daclarn off the stake if, on tho other hand, the number of entries rocclvcd Is not "satisfactory," tho exact, number required to fill not being stated. When It comes to tho race no horse will bo paid moro than one money. It only two start, then third and -fourth moneys will revert to the association. And if anybody should hnppen to have a horse good enough to distanco the Held, ho would receive first money, wbllo the track manager rotnined the balance of the stake. From tho winnings of all horses that succeed in getting a pleco of the money at the Illgby meeting the association will deduct an amount oqunl to 5 per cent, of tbo face value of the stake, which, ot course, is equivalent to scaling down tho actual value of the race from U2.000 to $l.fl00. This Iwing true, every noml nif.or in reality pays nn entrance fee of 0t4 per cent, ot the purse actually hung up. European horsemen are negotiating with K. II. Ilarriman for the purchase, ot Onnqua, UiOSM.

OnuNSWlCK, Ob., March 6. Hollcltor-Oonerol llenneft will be called upon (oendoavor to Inflict tho death penalty on tho son ot tho man who avenged tho murder of Ilennott's father. It Is a strange story and 0110 ot deep Interest that places the Solicitor-General In tho trying position of cither serving tho rigid demands ot his high ohTco or of protect ing tho name of tho man who, nt tho doublo risk of hta life, executed dlro vengeance on tho murderer of brave Capt. Bennett. If tho Solicitor-General protects tho family that avenged tho murder of his father, ho must pro tect n-man twice a murderer, ono admitted ns Buch and nn avowed assassin of tho col ored raco. Tho trial thnt will make tho May term of tho court famous will bo Sollcltor-Genoral Hennett'a prosecution of Curtis Higglnbolhnm for tho killing of two negroes. Thirty years ago Frank Hlgginbotbnm laid nt.tho feet of tho dying Cnpt. Bennett tho severed head of a giant negro tho head of the man who had fired tho shot thnt meant death for lis victim. To-day tho son of 0110 Is collect ing evidence that may cost the lifo of the eon of tho other. During the civil war Capt. Dennett command ed a company of daring, hardy, fenrlcss fire eaters, which was tho prldo ot the regiment and the rallying host of several hot engagements. Twice, It is written in thu history that is only mado nt tho camp tires of Confed erate veterans, did Dennett's men turn tho tide of battlo and snatch victory from grim, staring dofent. In Capt. Ilennott's company was eroxik Hlgginbothain. a stalwart, dare devil typo ot a young mun who w us wrapped iid ln his leader. His devotion was only equalled by Capt. Dennett's admiration for his jouug soldier, and tho two wern frequently together. One night whilo the leader and tho privato woro riding horscbui through Wayno county, Ala., an ussassiu'a bullit sped from tho under brush nnd with unerring aim lodged In tho Captain's broast. Ho toppled from his horse, but not to the ground, for jouug Itlggln bothani sprang from his horso nnd graspod tho woundod man. Ixioklng in the direc tion from which tho shot had come, Higgin bothnm saw Ihe hitistled f.ice of u negro a giant iu stature lighted up hy a shaft of moon light ns ho aped away through tho woodb. Ilo recognized the negro as a slave who had worked in tho cotton fields where Capt. Ilcunctt had been an overseer. Tenderly lifting his Captain to bis horse he took him to l-.uiip, nnd as the surgeons bent osgerly to tholr work Hlg- fflubothaiu stole nwny, with only thu blurs and ilsdotorinlnatlon to guldo him. Ho plunged Into too deep woods, chuckling as n sontry's shut oped after him. When tho roll ot tho company was called tho next morning Kronk Hlgginliothaiu w.is marked missing. His companions wcro Ignorant as to his whereabouts; nod his olllcers wcro annoyed. Tho next day, when Hlgginbothnm did not re turn he wns published nn a deserter and orders were Issued to shoot blm on night. Twodnvs uftcrward Hlgglnbotham roturned voluntarily nnd wnsorduml to be brought im mediately beforo tho Colonel of the ltogiment. There ho told n remnrkablo aod thrilling story. Having recognized his Captain's nh sallant, ho determined to have his life, nnd, on bringing tho Captain to cump, set out to oomo hack, but with tho assassin's rrnlp. Hit followed the negro to bis known rcfugo in the northern camp un Ht. Mmon's IMamt and pre sented himself as n Confederate deserter, whero he was promptly taken Ii. Tho negro assarsln was a camp cook, nnd Hfgginbothnm pro posed thnt tho two go to tho water's odge to gather ojHers. As the negro bent oer the beach Hlgglnbotham plunged a knlto Into his bick; then ho covered hli Jugular voln. and ns tho' negro's holy fell ho cut his head from his body. (Jrasuing it by tho short curly hair, ho stofo a boat and mado his way back through the Union lines to tho Confederate camp. Aa he finished hii dramntic story ho I brew tho wrapping oft a bundle and showed the evered husd to the assembled niticers. Then he walked to Capt. Ilennott's tent and plucod tho head nt the dlng mnii's feet. Tho next dav tho Captain died, und tbo head was left to carrion birds. .Frank Hlgglnbotham seemed to never forgive tho r.ioe of the man who h id killod his lender und friend. Aftortho wurlllgglnbotliain moved to Ulynn county, of which ilriinswkk Is thu nn tropnlis.Jind during the remainder of his lifo kil.cd fltteun negroes. On one occasion hn killed two negroes on tho road and, cutting off their heads, brought them to 1 county Run and, set ting tlicra on stakes, Invited tbo saloon loungers todrink to them. Once, when Pierre Lorillnrd's vacht steamed Into Drunswlck waters, going to Jcryl Island. Higglnbolhnm and the chief en gineer of the yacht quarrelled and Higgcn botham added another lctim to his list. Ijorillard swore to never inraiu tippiu tho waters of Oglclhorucilav a promise nlwajs kept. Curtis Hlgglnbothnm Inherited his father's feudal hatrciF for tho negroes.

Mr. Hugh Craig, the President of the Chamber of Commerce, at San Franclteo. who Is now ln tho city, tells iomo Interesting stories about Now Zealand nnd tho native customs. He wai born on thait island, wlicro his father, who was a native of Scotland, lived for a number ot years. Mr. Craig says thnt tho title to all land Is vested In tho natives, according to tho ngrcoment made with Knglnnd, and that when land Is to bo transferred tho determina tion of any question of ownership comes botoro n court constituted for that purpose. On ono occasion, when a heailng In a case was ln prog ress, a young natjvo informed tho court that his father owned tbo land, nnd, in consequence, it now- bolonged to him. When some of tho nn tit cb were asked If ho spoke Iho truth, they re plied that ho did. At this poihl an old native who was sitting In thu rear of the courtroom arose to his feet, and, throwing aside his nlantle, stood forth, stark naked, nnd. Miming forward, addressed tho court. TbU mode of dress Or, rather, undress Mr. Crahl (Md, was by no means uncommon when natives appeared, before tho land court. He proceeded-lo tell tho court, thnt the young man was mistaken in' claiming tbo owner ship of the land, Hu himself held tho tlllo to thu property. Ho said years ago he went to war against the owner ot tho property In ques tion, und tlfat not 'only was the proprietor ot tho land killed, but every member of the family except tho young man who had Just claimed the land. "Hn was thenn babe," continued the old man, " ana I had nelrori him by ono of his feot and was nbout to dash bin brains out against a rock when my wlfo interceded on behalf of the boy and begged that his life be spared and that ho be given to her. Ho went on to say. that ho granted her request and gavo hrr the boy, who had ever since lived in his family. i "Now ho claims the land." he added, "because bis father owned lu llut I fought his father and 1 Killed him mid all thu members of his family. , What Is more, I nto all or his body that waa edible, soi thnt all that remained of his father passod In tonic;" 1 The old man contlnuod that, under theso cir cumsiunces. he thought he had Droved a good title tn the land. When the native who had heard this state ment wero questioned, they said that whnt the I old in in had stated was true, and that, accord ing 10 their customs, the .title to tho land In question had passed to him. The court so do cided, and bo, concluded Mr. Craig, there Is ln 1 Now Zealand, in ndilltlcn to tho otner usual I foims of getting, title to realty, such as for I money consideration, for love and affection, &c, I title by digestion.
