exhibition of the fast hoi act on the race
course, a pastime that has contributed
to make Kentucky famous for its fno
racing animals. The play Is one In which

land of gold and adventure. With Chas.

If. kindly spirits watch upon the destinies
of men,
May the benign, far seeing soul of Lin
coln hover near,
And, casting down his mantle o’re us,
when.
As now, we’re in the toll and stress of
limes close wrought with tear
And hope of change and better things to
be.
Slay he. guiding us in wisdom, stay the
T hand,
Or, if nred be, urge to strike a blow .more
grand
For tills, the land he loved and lived for,
Worked for, thought for, prayed for—died.
And sec’ng our mistakes may his re
straining power in spirit chide
The one who’d lead astray, or shirk a duty
in this day;
Unclasp the grasp that seeks too much
to gain
Regarding not another’s need or pain.
And teach us that the noble plan
Makes for the freedom and the brother
hood of man.
Oh. may his spirit’s benediction rest
Upon our leaders in this reconstruction
time.
And help to mould a nation of all na
tions bleat:
A work of state, safe founded on the
rights and truths sublime.
