Terre Haute. Aug. Special Telegram, The Ave da) a meeting of the Vigo Agricultural Society opened today la ihe presence of nearly 5.0U0 people. It was ladies' day, and the fair sex were admitted free. Three-fourths of those present were ladies.

This meeting must not be confounded with the September meeting of the Terre Haute Trotting Association, at whose meets the world's records have been set. However, this no alow meeting. The purses aggregate and many of the cracks are here from the grand circuit. The 2:07 pace Thursday. In which Rubeosteln entered, promises to furnish some sensational features.

There will be an effort to put Kubensteln in the same category with Robert J. and Gentry. Today there were three events on the card, and all were straight beat events, although there were some close finishes. Clem Crevellng, of Sf Louis. Is starter, and ez-l'nited States Treasurer E.

It was rather unusual to see a heat la the 2:43 pace reeled oft la but Itburiel did it, and be didn't seem worried by the effort either, although Seabud for a while looked like the winner of the last heat.

Dan SI aart Says Corbett and Ft salsa -nt ana Will Sarelr Meet. Last Thursday, at DaHas. Texas. Dan Staart delivered himself In this fashion On the Corbett-Fitzsimuons fight: "Newspapers and individuals have had considerable to say of ray defiance of the Governor. New I wish to be understood clearly and distinctly on that point.

Neither myself nor the Florida Athletic Club is defying the Governor, or any one else. For myself. I have gone quietly ahesd attending to my own business, relying upon the advice of my attorneys that there will be no law in the statute books of Texas after Sept. 1 prohibiting glove contests. It is certainly not an act of defiance to attend to one's own business.

After Sept. 1. if It Is decided that there Is a law against glove contests, than I shall seek other pastures. In the past, since the controversy has arisen. I hare stated positively and unequivocally that my agreement to pull off thia championship contest will be carried out to the letter.

The champions are aa surs to meet as the Idee of October to roil around. Iicflance to the Governor, to the law. Is another thing. Newspapers may have their say. and individuals may talk, but the managers of the Florida Athletic Club have not, and.

will not, defy Thaw are governed by the ad- ot able ana experienced lawyers, warr-nave given much time to Investigation of the case. The San Anton! News takes Issue with Governor C. Culberson and but proclamation. It says: "The pecularity of our versatile young chief executive is his morbid desire for notoriety. When not engaged In the self-satisfying study of his own lmmaculats pukhritrude.

ha Is assiduously devoting his time and attention to devising some grand-stand play to attract and win apntaaa from gallery gods. His latest exhibition is a. fulminsua la th shape of a directed against the forthcoming boxing contest between Corbett and Fltxsimmona. Of course it la the duty of the Governor to see that the laws are faithfully executed, but until the civil officers announce their inability- to enforce the mandates of the courts it is an art of Impertinence upon his part to presume to lecture and dictate to them their duties. The ofMi-rrs of Dallas County know their duty, and will perform It: and from its knowlege of Sheriff Ben Cabell the News feels assured that he will not be driven Into the committal of any act of indiscretion or foolish Interforence with matters with which he has no if the Governor were to Issue twenty or a hundred proclamationa.

The Attorney General has rendered an opinion that the contemplated match cannot legally take place in Texas. That does not make It illegal. It la simply the opinion of a lawyer. a Against his opinion such eminent Jurats as George Clark, of Waco. W.

1- Crawford, of Dal-Iss. Wlliam P. Ellison, of Dallas, and a dozen of more of the best lawyers In the State have rendered formal opinions that the statute Is Invalid, and that no law exists in Texas against exhibitions of the ekararter contemplated. In the absence of any definite law on the subject, and with such eminent authorities as those quoted to sustain him In his declination to Interfere. Sheriff Cabell would Indeed be a reckless and Irresponsible officer were he to permit himself to be driven to assume a responsibility for which not he alone, but his bondamen.

could be made to suffer most severely. The arrangements will proceed without Interruption, and the match will be 'pulled oft" at the time and place heretofore designated Dallas, Texas. Oct. SO, 1895." FORT WAYXE BICYCLE RACE. Art har Gardner Goes a Halt la OtSO ZS nnd -Makes State Record.

TO BE MATCH PLAYING Chicago and Lake Forest Clubs AreEnterei, Tweedie Brothers to Meet McDonald and Fo.rgan in a Match for Holes. Preparations are being completed by the Illi nois Golf Club for the Invitation tournament, which will be held at their grounds at Belmont Saturday, Aug.

24. All the clubs In the city have been invited, to enter and the Chicago and Lake Forest clubs will tend teams to compete with the Illinois players. It ta not yet known whether the Riverside club will tend a team to compels with the representatives of these older snd stronger organizations. The teams will consist ot tlx men for sch who will compete for a handsome trophy of silver plate. The contest will be what Is known as match plaving.

That is, the players wilt compete (or holes, the team winning the largest aggregate number of holes winning the tournament. This form of the game differs from the ordinary, or medal, play. In that In the latter the player making the smallest number of strokes In the circuit wins from his opponent. In order to make the tournament more interesting, both to the players snd to the spectators, the usual practice of drawing for position will be dispensed with and the players will be selected according to their merit. That Is.

the three strongest men of the Illinois club will be mstched against the three strongest of the other tesms, and the next three la strength against the remaining trio of the other team. By this means the projectors ot yie tournament expect to avoid matching men of totally unequal strengtn ana spoiling me pleasure of the matches. Captain Tweedle's Trim, The tesm of the Illinois club will constat of the following players: Captain Herbert J. Tweedie, Lawrence Tweedie, Robert Risk. The other three members of the team will be selected from the following members: Dr.

1L W. Gentler. John Lieth, W. Scott, J. C.

Thompson, and Seymour; Egerton. The Chicago Golf Club will probably send a team made up as follows: Charles B. McDonald, James R. Forgan, Steyvesant Leroy, E. I.

Frost, Richard 8. Emmet, and E. W. Cramer. McDonald, th captain of the club, is generally considered the best player in the city, and, together with E.

I. Frost, who was defeated In the recent Lake Forest tournament in the play-off of a tie by K. C. Farwell. make this team a very strong aggregation.

The make-up of the Lake Forest team Is rather doubtful, but will probably Include most of the following players: F. C. Farwell. 1 Farwell. F.

C. Aldrlch. C. Durand. and MeConnlck.

McDonald, of the Illinois club, will be matched against Herbert J. Tweedie, of the Illinois club, and Forgan. of the Chicago, against Lawrence Tweedie. of the Illinois. The arrangement of the other players cannot yet be decided, but it will be arranged in order to make the playing as close as possible.

The plsying win begin Immediately after the arrival of the 1:30 train at the Belmont links and continue all afternoon. The playing of the matches between the first set of players should alone furnish royal sport. This will be the first large open tournament of the season and is creating much Interest In golfing circles. The tournament at Lake Forest, while a most successful one. was limited to men who bad never played golf prior to 14.

This rule barred almost all of the most expert players who will meet at the Belmont tournament.
