Baker said: was personally acquainted with Father Ryan, and find it difficul: to express my feelings at his death. I knew bim well, and be passed weeks beneath my root in the State of Alabama. When he first became my guest I found him to be a most exful genius. wan, Father full of power, and powertraordinary Ryan possessed the facuity of seemingly being abie to withdraw himself entirely from this world and all earthly things. Then be would give ex.

A meeting of sorrow was held at Hart's building, Hall. with Tais was large, rambling very bad acoustics. with I others, conid was invited to address the assembiy. not make myself beard over the building. bad After I and several other speakers finished, Father Ryan was called upon.

He bad noted the detective acoustic and down the ball, and slowly walked up properties of the aisle, speaking and distinctly. Presently to he stopped, having found spot suited make himself heard, and threw into his sympathetio Voice an Immense power intensity.

His audience were meved to tears and to sobs, and the climax was reached when be arrived at the lines: Out of its scabbard! Never hand Waved sword from stain as free, Nor purer sword led braver band, Nor braver bled for a brighter land, Nor brighter land had a cause as grand, Nor cause a chief like Lee! "Father Ryan was a deep thinker and student, and at times very mirthful. He was devoted to the Southern cause, and to the Southern leader, Jefferson Davis. He was also a warm personal friend of Alexander H. Stephens, who consulted Father Ryan before publishing his 'History of the War Between the Once be was called to Stephens' home, to consuit with him about certain passages of bis work. What those passages were will probably never be known, for they were omitted in accordance with Father Ryan's advice.

Father Ryan preached three successive nights in Eufaula. There were not many Catbolics there, but his church was packed upon every occasion. In the pulpit be was a itable preacher. Never did one of his listenere hear bim utter a disrespectful word against other churches or other faiths. He was a saint in character and purity, and the death of his brother, who was killed in battie, seemed to throw a shadow upon his life, for he never spoke of it without tears in bis eyes.

Gen. Baker, the attorney for Melvin Butler, condemned to life imprisonment for the murder of Jobn B. Macoy, is preparing extracts from the record of the trial, with his exceptions to the ruling of the court, and will apply for a new bearing in a few days. The case of Peter, alias "'Skinny" Hess, accused of the robbery of Herman Timme on the night of the Macoy murder, was called yesterday in the City Court. As neither the prosecution nor defense was ready for trial the case was continued until Tuesday.

Hess was in remarkably fine spirits and talked freely. When allusion was made to the Batler verdict, however, be was silent and changed the subject. Prosecuting Attorney Caruth is firmly grounded in the belief that Millard Butler, the brother of the condemned, was an accessory to the murder of Macoy. Millard is serving a term at the Work-house at present, having been sent there directly after the murder, He was seen with Melvin on the night of the murder. Hess testitied that be left the brothers together at Christian's saloon about 12 o'clock.

Hess stated fur. ther that Millard Butler resembled him very much, and strangers bad often unfounded the two. On the other hand, Chief Whallen and the police think Hess was Melvin Butler's ac- complice. Made Love Too Often. Private Policemen Slagel and Higgins made an interesting arrest yesterday in the person of Wm.

Reese, who lives near Clay and Walnut streets, and is comfortably married, but has been making love to Miss Katie Koenig, at No. 651 East Green street, He pretended to be single, and at length became engaged to the young lady, Tne wedding was set for last Tuesday. In the meantime Reese made up a plausible story, explaining a temporary, embarrassment in money matters, and borrowed $25 of his intended bride. The trick was discovered, and the chagrined and deeply insulted lady placed the matter in the hands of the policemen. Reese made an assignment of his wardrobe in satisfaction of the debt.

Hereafter All Pools to Be Sold at the Track, According to the New Law. A Statement From Both Sides--Death of Thistle--Turf News and Notes. Much discussion is indulged in by men over a statement accredited to Col. M. Lewis Clark, President of the Louisville Jockey Club, to the effect that hereafter the entries for the races here would not be made publie until noon on the day they were to be run.

Mr. Jack Chinn, of the Chinn Morgan stables, and one of the best known horsemen in the country, was seen at the Turt Exchange last evening by a COURIER- JOURNAL reporter, and was asked what he thought of the alleged proposed action. think, be, Col. Clark intends to do it and that be will make a big mistake it he does. I enter a horse for a race I want to see the entries within an bour or two, so I will know what chance my borse will have.

As soon as I see the entries I make up my mind at once what I will do, and instead of keeping a horse from his feed and water and fixing him for a race, when is not to go, I tell my boy and the restraint is relaxed. There is no use in a man being on pins for twenty-four hours about his horses when he might just as well not be. Clark acta as I understand he will, owners will be barred from backing their horses. With the pool-rooms selling all over the country, I can back my borse without creating suspicion. I can telegraph New York, Washington, Pittsburga, Covington and elsewhere to each put a few hundred on for me, and very readily get several thousand dollars up without changing the odds.

But if I should go to the track or pool -room bere and offer to place $8,000 I couldn't get even money. I run my borses for money, and not in the interest of any a 550- ciation, I tell you this proposed sobere will give borsemen the worst of it. man who owns a big stable of borses, said to me that be would sign an obligation with the remainder of the borsemen not to enter a horse in any purse race in case tue association held up the entries. I would like to see this track prosper, but such a scheme as is proposed now, will result in another track being started bere. Tbere are plenty of men with money who would back new enterprise of that kind.

There toe track at the Fair Grounds, which 18 just as good Che other and the grand stand and stables are already built. Toe stables are better than those at the race track, and the Fair Ground people would jump at au opportunity to make regular track.at their grounds. The idea of holding back the entries--why DO other trackmen in the country ever thought of such a measure. I'm against it, and so is every other horseman, and if it is carried out you will see trouble as sure as you are born. It the association is actuated by spite, it bad better take some otber means of getting even and not jump on the horsemen who support the associations.

The rules require that a horse shall be drawn by 10 o'clock in the morning, and of course the entries must necessarily be made public by that bour. Further than this I do not care to say. We are bound to protect C. H. White, who bas bought the betting privileges at the Jockey Club track.

I do not yet know what they will ask us to do, but we will strive to protect them." you think that pool selling in the city should be stopped during the races was asked. do," replied Col. Clark. "The bookmakers and others connected with the betting at the track complaiu that the bulk of the money is wagered at night in the pool rooms in town, and never reaches the track. I think it would be more just to the associatiou and to the men who have paid for the privileges if the money was bet at the track.

We are under 00 obligations to the pool rooms. They do not beip the associations, but on the contrary they are the leeches. It people can not bet their money in town they will do so at the track. It pool selling is begun at 10 o'clock in the morning at the track 1t will give the people ample time to place their money. Pool seiling outside the track is illegal under the law anyway.

The fact of the matter is, we must protect ourselves, and as far as we are concerned the pool reels do not enter into the discussion." Mr. Chinn says that the alleged proposed action works directly against the horsemen, said the reporter. don't see 10 what way, several horsemen have told me that it would be the best thing we could do, continued Col. Clark. the gentlemen are opposed to any such action, let them arrange it so that the poolrooms here spall not sell at night." 'Are you making war upon the poolrooms bere, or is there any differences between you aud the Turf Exchange people of the recent sale of the track privilege?" was asked.

"We are not making war upon ADJ one, and only seek to protect ourselves. We will do it without consulting the interests of the They do the track no you entered into 8 com bination with Lexington and Latonia associations to hold up the don't say that we have. It the entries were not made public, people would not know what horses were to run and there would be no tampering with the animals over uigbt. You know there have been Cases where horses were poisoned or doctored. conclusion, I would add that the aim of the club bas ever and always will be the bred enbancement of the value of the thoroughinterests of the Soutb and West by reason of stakes and purses, treating all and justly.

The liberal patronage and infairly creased number of entries show that the country at large appreciates the efforts of the club, and without fear or favor what is considered as enhancing racing and breeding will be carried out. It is pretty sure that the Jockey Cluba of Kentucky at Lexington, Louisville and Covington will act in concert for what they consider the best interests of all concerned, and you will be duly acquainted with their action. Tue entries will be given in ample time to allow horsemen to judge as to the merits of the horses and for declarations, which must be made at 10 o'clock of the morning of the race, and under certain conditions will be given as usual; only those conditions will not be dictated to the Jockey Clubs by those who subscribe nothing toward the stakes and purses for which the horses compete."

The Turf Exchange hitherto had the privilege, bus felt this as though it could pay but $20,000, and outbid by White Simmons, general opinion is that the contract will be a losing one, as the book-makers, who pay $100 a day for at the track, will, it is thought, attend the Eastern tracks.

A day or two since the COURIER-JOURNAL noticed the publication of a biograpby of the late Judge Richard Reid by his widow, which gives the true and correct particulars of the infamous assault upon bim by J. J.

Cornelison. The following notice of the book from the Owingsville Qutlook gives a clear indication of the: subject matter, and will be read with interest: A suitable memorial to Judge Richard Reid would, in any event, have been due tue Christian public. A life so rich in all the graces of mind, heart and person adorning both church and ciety in equal measure, could never have failed to be of pricelese value to Christian literature. But when such a life is crowned with suffering, persecution and death for the sake of high Caristian principle and the brighest public morality, it becomes the heritage of all who toil and suffer, and there is po more pious task than its faithful portrayal. The elements of the life here announced have gathered as spontaneously as the clouds gather from the many waters.

A thousand bearts, moved by the fearful have poured out each its wealth of mamory aud of love and unit. edly produced one of noblest tributes paid to the worth of ryortal man. Nearly every page introduces some new witness, from some new station iu life. or from some far distant scene yet the testimony 18 one: that Richard it das ever the same true, kind, Christian gentlemen, wonderfully endowed, and devoid of malice ca the lamented Garfield, whom. indeed, he fatally resembled.

Independent of its tragic eleineuts, and among them must be classed the terrible bereavement of his young manhood, there is seldom a niore fascinating biography to be found in English literature. The lover of romance will find here his rite writer outdone, in the grandeur of the characters and the wonderful flow of events. His noble lineage, his suffering youth, the deep successes affliction of his young manhood. the grand of his life, the sudden social whirlwind of rage and passion thai shattered the tendrils of his sensitive nature, all are delineated, not iu the partial words of some half-doting biographer, but by a multitude of wituesses, each moved by memories ineffaceable of one the noblest of men they had ever known. Classamong mates, teachers, scholars, friends, professional acquaintances, without number, unite in one unmixed tribute of affection and regard that beggars the power of the most skilled pher.

Every chapter of the book contains its own moral. Even the boyhood is replete with teaching of its owp. The college life is a rich heritage for young meu. The address upon temerance a timely lesson for the present generation. The letters rival our best epistolary literature in Irving or Macaulay.

All the elements of humorist, the wit, scholar, the Christian gentleman, the martyr, are bined in this complex character. The true story or the last great tragedy is here told for the first ume in all its dreadrul particulars. Seldom does such a chapter find a place in the lives of men.
