TRACK AND TURF GOSSIP, The Forthcoming Fairs Here and at Santa Ana. Will Siikwood and McKinney Come Together? A Ooodly Array of Fast Young Trotters and Paoers—Aftermath of the Great Free-for-All at Sacramento. The agony will soon be over and we ahall know which ie the faster horße — Bilkwood or McKinney. The former horse is reported to have done half a mile in 1 :03}4 at Hueneme nearly a month ago, but fast half mileß are not alone sufficient to win a protracted struggle like mile heats, three in five. There must be staying quality, as well as a high flight of speed. This McKin ney ie known to possess, and the friends of Siikwood claim he is equally blessed in this respect. Over at Santa Ana, the pacer would be the favorite if there was any betting at all. I did not see him when I was over there on Thursday, but I did see one of hie colts that wae a picture. The fact that McKinney did not get a place in the free for-all at Sacramento, won by Beamy Mac, is commented upon to his disfavor in mostiustances, while in others the boys give a knowing wink and intimate that "he was not out for it" on the occasion referred to. But that need not trouble any of the McKinney partisans. If their horse can beat Siikwood, they can carry off at least $10,000 of Santa Ana money, #** It is a trifle over 11 years since the great American colt Foxhall won the Grand Prix at Longchump, and the Grand Duke Michael, Cesarowitch and Cambridgeshire at Newmarket. 1 never saw the great Eoman-noaed colt himself, but saw one of hie sons at Santa Ana. He is a rather high-finished horse, but shows manifest eigne of neglect. John Hill got him from Governor Stanford, and then sold him to Mr. E R. Den, who now has him in Frank Manchaca's hands. If the horse could have been let to get tolerably fat and given over to Frank in the first place, hie heele might have told a different story, for he is a very easy mover, and is not lacking in courage. If I owned Don Marcos Fos ter's mares. I should aIBO want to own old Bruce. His dam is the imported mare Goneaway, by North Lincoln, and he has several Derby winners in his ped igree. «*» I hear there is strong talk of a winter meeting at San Francisco or Oakland, and I am praying to tbe Lord it will 'all through. When the project wae mooted here, last fall, by Mr. Lichtenberger, I did all I could to discourage it. The ob jection to winter racing is, that it is participated in solely by the professional element, which races chiefly from mercenary motives and regards a horse solely as an engine for making money. The breeders, euch as Mr. Rose, Colonel Thornton, Mr.Todhunter, Mr. Winters, Mr. Fair, and gentlemen of that sort, never race in tbe winter time, believing their horses require a period of rest. These breeders are the nolo protection ol tho public, for every time they lose a race it detracts from the value of their stock. Consequently they have to run their horses to win. But with their horses turned out, the public has no protection, for the pro fessionals stop at nothing in the way of jobbery, and as these fellows are the solo support of the winter tracks, my rea sons for opposing winter races must be plain enough to the average reader. *** It was the villainy practiced at the winter tracks at Elizabeth and Gutten berg which caused the severe and strenuous legislation against racing which waß enacted four years ago in New Jersey. Had the racing ended with the termination of the Long Branch meetings in August, no such legislation would have been needed. But when the $1 gates of Long Branch closed and the 50 cent gates of the winter tracksopened, then came a menace to the working classes of such large manufacturing towns as Newark, Jersey City, Rahway, and Somerville. Mechanics drew their wages on Saturday nights and instead of paying their grocery and meat bills on Monday, or even going to work on that day, hurried off to the track and bucked it off at a thieving game of horse Tace. Was it any wonder, then, that the state which produced a Fashion and a Clarion, should enact laws against racing, rather than see the families of its operatives improveriehed by theft? »*» Therefore I am glad the Los Angeles winter meeting was a failure, and I hope every other one will be likewise. Five months in the year is quite enough time for racing, which is a pastime and not an industry. "But," says the advocate of winter racing, "you should remember that these racing stables employ a large number of men and boys, who will be thrown out of employment if you dis courage winter racing. Turn the horses out to graßS, and you turn these men and boys out to starve." I am a humane man, and that is why lam a poor man, Ido not like to hear, the word "atarve" in a land of plenty like this. As Mayor Hazard Bays, "it makes a humane man shudder." At the same time Ido think that if there is one man who, more than another, deserves to starve, it is the man who sells hie Bervicee and time to the brutes who race horses in midwinter. As for the boys, they are better off in school. * » Now, it is pretty evident to me that tbe Los Angeles fair of 1892 is going to be a grand success. .The purses are large, apd the attendance is generally in proportion thereto. Hence it is fair to infer that they will carry over to next year a balance of not lees than $5000. This will form the basis of a grand spring meeting, for they can run here three weeks earlier than at San FrancißCO, and can, therefore, give seven days' races, commencing on the third Saturday in March. With $4500 cash in hand they can safely advertise $7500 in purses and stakes for a seven days' meeting. Three per cent entrance to nominate, and 7 per cent additional to start, will guarantee 140 entries for 30 races, there being five on each Satur day and four on the other five days of the week. The great trouble with these good folks is their unwillingness to apend money in advertising; and tbe money spent in that way ia what brings back the money to the gates of the course. *•* Tbe amount of money above men tioned will give $1000 in purees on the . j *lOSf> nr, oooVi n( r.ho twn ween. u»jtb, »"v* f.-w" «r* Sftturaaya, at the least. Only one race LOS ANGELES HERALD: MONDAY MORNIN&, SEPTEMBER 26, 1892. for 2-year-olds should be on the pro gramme, and that but three furlongs. The 3 year-old events should be three in number, tbe longest race first, and tbe shorter ones subject to accumulative penalties. In tbe all aged events there should be a handicap of one and a half miles, on the opening Saturday of tbe meeting, which would draw a big crowd from abroad and keep them here for a week. Of course, I know that you can not please everybody. There are men who raise a howl whenever a race is made that does not exactly suit their own horses. These fellows would kick if the race were converted into a foot ball match; and holler "fowl" if they were invited to a chicken dinner. I heard men "beefing" about McKinney's defeat at Sacramento, last Saturday, who did not have a dollar on the race, one way or the other. Hidalgo. SHAPING FOR THE FAIB. HARD AT WORK OS AFFAIRS AT PARK AND PAVILION. How tho Two Big; Purse* Filled With Five Entries ln Each—The Race for Named Horses Not Vet Beady to Publish. Everybody connected with the sixth district agricultural fair association and its most potent auxiliary, the chamber of commerce, is busy. Hazard's pavilion has been secured for tbe interior portion of the great show ; and the display will not only be larger and more varied than in any previous year, but tbe auxiliary attractions will be more numerous. Among these will be an acrobatic con test, a baby show, a dancing attraction and a musical cmtest. This, together with an unusually large art display, both of paintings and statuary, will make the after-dark portion of the fair very attractive. TUB PROGRAMME PRIZE. Several weeks ago a prize of $10 was offered by the chamber of commerce for the best programme of entertainment out Bide of tbe live-stock show ana racing department. There were several com petitors for this prize, and, strange to say, all from persons connected with newspapers hereabouts. Alter some deliberation, the prize was awarded to Miss Annie M. Pittenger, of Ventura. She is the daughter of a clergyman re siding in that county, and is a frequent contributor to the columns of a paper published in this city. IN LOCAL INDUSTRIES. There will be much to amuse and in struct. There will be turning lathes for workers in wood, ivory, iron and brass; there will be a pottery factory at work, making flower pots and molasses jugs ; fret saws cutting brackets and every other imaginable kinds of work ; and a generally good display of local indus tries, showing casual visitors the growth and progress the city is making in man ufactures of all sorts. Los Angeles now keeps a great deal of money at home, through her local manufactures, which used to go to San Francisco and the east. Conspicuous among the attractive features in this department, is a silk apring loom that will unreel the silk from the cocoons and spin it into thread right before your eyes. You will see the hair of the Angora goat also worked up Into a cloth which In need for lining coat collars, etc. Indeed, there will be many novel features in the pavilion de partment of the great show which will pay for a minute inspection. OTHER PRIZE CONTKSTS. There is to be a type-writing contest, in two branches. The contestants in the first branch are to be students only, and the first prize is to be a diploma, which, although it has no intrinsic value, will be nevertheless prized by the winner. The oth«r is for experts, the first prize being $10 and the second $5. These contests are to be conducted according to rules prescribed by the board, which will be furniehed to con testants in time for them to familiarize themselves with them before they be gin work. As there are several hundred men and women employed here in that capacity, there should be an additional lot of prizes given by the stationery stores, in order to make an interesting competition out of the affair. THE PRIZE BEAUTY SHOW. The beauty show is open to all young ladies residing within the Sixth Agri cultural district over 15 years of age, providing, of course, that they are of moral character. The prizes in this de partment are $25 and $15 for first and second prizes respectively, but, up to date, there have been only six young ladies nominated. The conditions un der which the entries are to be made re quire 10 nominations to be made or the above prizes will not be given. The Herald suggests that a third prize of $10 be given, in order to stimulate the contest. OLD TIME COOKING. It also has a suggestion to make of an old-fashioned Spanish kitchen, wherein the eastern visitor can regale his interior hoinbre with all the red hot cookery for which the Castiliau cuisine is so justly famous; and at which the average Yankee can learn something new about the manifold culinary uses of Indian corn. AT THE DIRECTORS' ROOM, Within the offices of the agricultural society all is bustle and hurrah. The two big purseß offered by the society in the free-for-all classes have already borne fruit in the shape of five entries in each clasß. The great free-for-all of last year, won by the Los Angeles stallion Mc- Kinney, drew such a crowd as nearly paid the whole week's purses; and the only thing to regret is that tbe large and liberal purses now offered by them were not advertised in the first place, as a larger number of entries might have been had in each class, trotting and pacing. The great sidewheel contest takes place on the third day of the fair. TUB FREE FOR-ALL PACE. This race takes place on the third day for a purse of $1500, divided $750 to the first, and so on into four moneys. Fol lowing are the entries: W. H. McCartney's bl. m. Princese Alice, 2:16, by Dexter Prince—McClellan mare. Oakwood Park Farm's b. g. W. Wood, 2:llJ£, by Rteinway. R. H. Menton's br. g. Tom Ryder, by Alexander Button—Black Ralph mare. E. Willet's bl. h. Siikwood, 2:lß>i,by Blackwood Mambrino—Luck Woodruff. Thos. Keating's b. g. Our Dick, 2:15, by Gibraltar—David Hill mare. This is a hot field and ought to make a good race. THE FBEE-FOR-ALL TP.OT. Thia includea a still better lot of "ter ribly high-bred cattle." if such a thing were possible. The entries are four in To be without a rival , • ■ •* rare. But Sir Walter Foster, M.D., Fellow of the Royal College of Physicians of London, has written of Apollinaris that " It has no rival among mineral waters," and its annual sale of 18 million bottles shows that the whole world endorses that verdict. number and the purse is $2 000. divided into four moneys, $1 000, $500, $300 and $200 respectively. The nominations up to Saturday night were : Thos. Wall, Jrs' eh. g. Astor 2:16, by Dexter. Prince—dam by Gen. Dana, Jr. J. L McCord's eh. g. Shylock, 2:19 by Tom Renton—Mary Low's dam. Walter Maben's b. g. Richmond, Jr., 2:15, by A. W. Richmond, Jr. Chas. H. Durfee's br. h. McKinney, 2:12}4, by Alcyone-Rosa Sprague. It is understood that Tom Keating will be substituted for the driver of Astor and will leave his own horse, Frank M., at home. TAKING THE INITIATIVE. The Italiaas Preparing Celebrate Col umbus Day. A grand mass meeting was held by the Italian colony yesterday afternoon, called by a provisory committee of some prominent Italians, which was very largely attended ; the object was to pro vide for a grand celebration of the 400 th anniversary of the discovery of America. Over $600 was collected for expenses, and a permanent executive committee was elected, as follows: A. Vignolo, president. G. Marietich and G. Sormano, vice preeidents. L. Guasti, treasurer. J. Barlotti, secretary. I. Longo, vice secretary. G. L. Castrucclc, grand marshal. It was decided to give a grand parade, fire-works, and a ball in the evening. Columbus day being an occasion that should be celebrated by Americans and foreigners alike, invitations are extended to everybody, so as to make it the great est celebration ever held in Los Angeles. gurdine¥orton" skips. A COUNTY JAIL PRISONER GAINS HIS LIBERTY. An Ail-Around Crook and Bad Man Gen erally Eludes His Jailors — Bap posed to Have Climbed Out jjg ■'" , Through the Engine House. Gurdine Horton, the all around horse thief and crooked man generally, very adroitly escaped from the county jail last evening about 6 o'clock, and up to a late hour last night, although a number of officers ware searching ior him,he had not been recaptured. Horton was in the county jail under a sentence by Justice Owens of 150 days for swindling a Frenchman a few weeks ago in a hay transaction. Another charge was pending, of horse stealing, to be brought up when he had served the 150 days. He is the same Horton who nearly a year ago ran away with a girl from Los Angeles, leaving his wife, and taking with him also a team which did not belong to him. He was captured at San Fernando, and afterwards married the girl when his wife had procured a divorce. He managed to slip through the hands of the law on the stealing of the team, and the officers could not get him dead to rights until this recent case. At tbe jail he had been allowed to go out of the tanks as a trusty, and it was by reason of this privilege that the slippery fellow made his escaoe. At 6 o'clock Deputy SheriffNicQuiro'.o, who is one of the deputy jailers, went out with two trusties, Jean Forrest and Wm. Bonner, to have Borne slops emptied. Jailer Russell was at supper, and Deputy Rogues in the front of the jail. Quirolo unlocked the heavy doors leading from the tank room into the en gine house, back of the jail, and went ahead of the trusties to the outer door, a distance of about 25 feet. The slops were emptied, and, with tbe men ahead of him, the deputy returned inside the tank. Nothing seemed wrong, and no sign of any slipping out had been noticed. Quirolo went off watch immediately afterwards. At 7 o'clock, when the roll was called, Horton was missing. A search failed to disclose any other method by which he escaped than that of having slipped through the door into the engine room while the deputy and trusties were going to the outside door. It was nearly dark in the room and he could easily have secreted himself. There is a hole in the roof of the en gine room, and Jailer Russell found evidences that he had climbed through it and reached the street over the wall outside. Horton must have gone around the south side of the lower tank and, been ready to slip out of the door as soon as the trusties had gone through. This door, Deputy Quirolo states, cannot be locked from the outside, and the custom had been to only lock the outer door leading into the yard, when slop was emptied. The kindness shown by the jailer to the fugitive was very much" mis placed. He is such an ungrateful rascal that be should have been kept in tbe tanks, from which escape is impossible. It is hoped he may be retaken, as he is a dangerous man to be at large. Financially Embarraitcu, A large manufacturer, whoso affairs were very much embarrassed, and who was over worked and broken down with nervous ex haustion, went to a celebrated specialist. He was told that the only thing needed was to be relieved o' care and worry, and have » change of thought. This doctor wae mor • considerate of his patient's health than of his financial cir cumstances. He ought to have advised him to use Dr. Miles' Restorative Nervine, the best remedy for nervous prostration, sleeplessness, dizziness, headache, til effects of spirits, tobac co, coffee, opium, etc. Thousands testify to cure.

A Banker's Opinion of Southern California. He Depicts Its Beauties and Its Financial Resources. An Eloquent Address Delivered by A. D. Childress ln San Francisco. Some Valuable Facts Collated. At the Bankers' convention in San Francisco, just closed, A. D. Childress, president of the City bank of Los An geles, responded on behalf of Southern California to the address of welcome in an address of more than usual eloquence. The description of Southern California and its development was in able hands, and the address was heartily received. A glance at what Mr. Childress said will be of interest. "When the traveler first enters Southern California," said the speaker, '•through the narrow gateway of San Gorgonio Pass, the transition from the treelesß, arid and desolate wilds of the Colorado desert produces a sensation of surprise and delight never to be forgot ten. It is a refreshing scene when one gazes out of the car window upon fields of snow, high up on the hoary tops of San Jacinto and San Bernardino, while all around is the bloom and beauty of almost tropical luxuriance. "The sudden change from a cheerless deeert to a semi-tropic clime is bewilder ing. His eyes rest with pleasure upon lofty mountain tops, the home of ice and suow kings, as well as upon eun-kiseed and fertile valleys rivaling the Aicadia of the ancienta. Here to him is para dise, all around bim is the Eden of his , brightest youthful dreams. As be is whirled onward he is greeted with the perfume from a veritable worid of flow ers; hie cheeks fanned by the balmy breezes of an eternal spring time. Here ia Southern California, 'Our Italy,' the | paradise of the world. Here is our sunny . southern clime where the morning-glory and century plant submit to tbe same I conditions, and flower with equal fre- ' quency; where the roße and lily are free from the environments of the hot house, and the tree geranium evidences perpet ual summer." After still further description of the climate, Mr. Childress proceeded to a more practical review of the physical features of ttie country. "The area of the southern counties," said he, "con stituting Southern California —Kern, Los Angeles, San Bernardino, Santa Barbara, Han Diego, San Luiß Obispo, Orange and Ventura —is 57,860|equare mile".of which 22.381 are mountains, and 29,380 desert, leaving only 6,805 square miies in val leys outof such a vast scope of territory." This area, he continued, was adapted to all productions of a semi-tropic clime, and within a few years the prairies where the Indians bunted and tbe coy ote dwelt, had become orchards bending under the weight of the golden apples of the Hesperides. It had increased in population more than 200 per cent. In 1880 it was only 79,551. whereas in 1889 it had swelled to 227,232. The assessed valuation of the eight counties in 1880 was only $41,460,218, which was in creased to $199,934,416 in 1889. a grand difference of $169,000,000 within a short decade. Since then there bad been tbe same ratio of material development of the whole country, the bloom and, beauty of which is bo bewildering that it ia beyond the power of any one to adequately picture or describe. Referring to Los Angeles, the birth place of the California Bankers' asso ciation, Mr. Childress spoke convinc ingly as follows: From a thriving town of 22,600 people in 1885, it has grown to be a city of beautiful residences, the dwelling place of over 60,000 happy and contented people. In July, 1885, there were only four commercial banks in Los Angeles, having a total capital of $500, --000, with surplus of $600,000. The com bined deposites of tbe four banks amounted to $3,128,000; whereas, in July of this year the number of com mercial banks bad increased to 13, with a combined capital of $3,300,000, a com bined surplus ef over $1,395,000, and the large sum of $7,500,000 deposits. Be sides the commercial banks there are at present five prosperous saving banks, with a total capital and surplus of $390, --000 and combined deposits of $3,275,000, as against two institutions in July. 1885, with a total capital of only $142,000. These figures show the gratifying in crease of banking capital within the past seven years, of $4,943,000. and in crease of deposits of over $7,505,000. No less wonderful has been the aston ishing incresaße in number and wealth lof all financial institutions in Southern California. The bank deposits of Southern Cali fornia exceed $22,000,000; a showing rarely if ever equaled by a country which a score of years ago was regarded as a sheep pasture, and little better than a desert waste. This Bum is nearly 11 per cent of the total depositß in all the banks of California, which exceed $196. --000,000. When we consider that in 1885 there were only 19 banks in Southern California, with a combined capital of $1,540,000, and total deposits of $4,999, --000, and contrast them with the 85 banks which exist to day, with a com bined capital of $11,500,000 and deposits 01 over $22,000,000, it is difficult to real ize the grand growth and increase which statistics prove beyond doubt. The speaker good humoredly referred to the claims of Southern California aB a growing commercial rival to San Ft an cisco, and the apathy of our friends of the north to recognize our advancement, and closed by predicting that the whole state within 25 years will be the richest and most prosperous country in the , union and in the world. i Dandruff forma when the glands of th c skin are weakened, and, If neglected, baldness is , ... fnlln— TTn 1 Urn U.I.
