f a mm V f THE PITTSBURG DISPATCH, THURSDAY, DECEMBER 1, 1892. 11 Secretary Harbison Talks of State Trotting ilorse Breeders. THEIR ANNUAL MEETING. Bigger Parses and Stakes to He Of fered for Kext Tear's Races. THE PRINCETONS ARE 2J0TC0UING. Ihe Eookmaters Are Once More Loser at Gnttenberg. Heavy GENERAL SPORTING KEWS OF THE DAT J. "W. Harbison, of New Castle, Secre tary of the Trotting Horse Breeders' As sociation of Western Pennsylvania, was in the city yesterday arranging for the annnal meeting of the association. The meeting i ill be held at the Seventh Avenue Hotel on the 14th inst. It is expected that this meeting will be one of the most interesting that has been held by the association. The' latter is in every way progressing jrcrider fullv, and its members own more valuable stock now than ever. During a conversa tion last evening, Mr. Harbison said: 'Oar associaHri2.ta done well this year. Oar rap& -meetine af Indiana was a great success in all respects and let me siy that Indiana has the best half mile track in Pennsylvania. We did so well there that our annual meeting will be a pleasant one. At our approaching meeting we will decide on the stakes and daises next year. I think that we will decide to have fewer races and bigger purses. A change of this kind is desired. "lam inclined to think that such a change will not be a bad one. Both Indiana and Washington want our meeting next year, and I cannot tell where the next meeting will be held. Of course none of us have anything to say against Indiana. Our members amount to 100 and every memb-r is a horse-breeder. One of our members, Mr. Sibley, is now a Congressman, and we are all proud ot the tact He is a fine gentle man." Regarding the voung trotting stock of the association, Mr. Harbison said: "The youngsters are remarkable. Miller and Sibley, of course, have some verv good ones, and so have the majority of our mem bers. At the farm with which I am con nected we have three flyers. We have a 6-year-old that has gone a trial mile in 2:17J We also have a 3-vear-old, by Bezant, that has Biade a trial in 2:18, and still another 3-year-old that has made a mark of 2:23. Mr. B. C Howe, of New Castle, has a 2-year-old colt, bv Clay, that has shown a mile in 2:40. This oolt is really a promis ing horse, and. is expected to do wonders. Generally speaking, I can say without ex aggeration that our association is to-day stronger in numbers of horses, better in quality of stock and richer in money than it ever was.

J? -QKEGGATJI6 AUD COSTELLO. . .-r-... .- . . xjistern sportinr amnonnes uiuer ia upin Ion Abou t the Long Contest. There is a great diversity oi opinion among Eastern sporting .authorities concerning the battle between Grx'ggains and Costello. On one side it Is claitned that the men fought with pluck, vigor and skill. In support of this it is arsued that Greggains had his nose broken and Costello bada broken hand. Both men were almost nnable to stand when the contest ceased. On the other hand, it is claimed that at no time did the men flgnt to hurt each other, and slmplv tttood off at longr range, feinting and making light exchanges. In one in stance, It is arsned, about 10 rounds were fought and not an effective blow was struck. It Is further claimed that if Greggains had fought anything like a fighter after the fortieth lound, be could have knooked Cos tello out. Altogether, no Dattle that has taken place In the East has cieated so much dlssatUtuction as- that between Greggains and Costello. The Goddard And Maher Battle. There is very groat local interest in tho coming big battle Vietween Goddard and Maher. Quite a num,'er of local sporting men want to back Giddaidand there is a dearth of money for the Irish champion. Several inquiries ban) been made at this office for Maher money. The contest prom ises to be u desperate on 4, and a nnmberof Pittsbnrgers aro going Exst to witness it. WardtoRoilly.

He can draw up articles or agree ment, sign them and lorvurd them to the TVtoune, Beaver Falls, and 1 will sign them. The contest must be under catoh-as-catch-can rules, the strangle barred, and each man to wrestle at 140 pounds. I will bet him $100 on the night of the match that I beat liitn.

A RE1JABKABLE AZTEC PRAYER Quoted in Full ly a Colorado Fciontist in Jroof of Dis Views. A 1Y0XDERFUL PIECE OF LITERATURE The following is a portion of Prof. "W. T, Poster's scientific notes, which accompanied his weather forecasts this week in the Rocty Mountain ATnw ot Denver. In his let ters for the past five months, the professor has maintained that the earth has several times been struck by comets, which have caused the different geological ages. The letter is of intense interest at this time: "It is claimed by many that the Aztecs are the oldest race of people on earth, and their records and traditions sound much like those of Genesis and Job. Their his toric legends divide the past time of their race into four epochs, aes or suns. The first of these ages terminated, according to Gama, in a destruction ot the people of the world by a famine: the second in a destruc tion by winds; in the third the human race was swept away by fire, and the fourth was a destruction by water. The Hiadoo legends are very similar. v "The Aztec prayer is a most remarkable piece of literature, and was evidently of fered and perfected during a long continued pestilence. It is sublime In thought and language, and like the hymns ot the Vedas and prayers of the 'Hebrews, has been handed down for thousands ot years. As evidence that the human race on the West-. era Hemisphere was destroyed by a comet I give the following extracts trom this ancient, wonderful and sublime Aztec prayer as translated into the English lan guage: The prayer of tho Aztecs. " 'O Lord, Thou hast held it good to for sake us in these days according to the coun sel Thou hast as well in heaven as in hades. Alas for us, in that Thine anger and indig nation have descended upon us in these davs; alas in that the many and previous afflic tions of Thy wrath have overgone and swallowed us up, coming down even as stones, spears and arrows upon the wretches that inhabit the earth. This is the sore pestilence with which we are afflicted and almost destroyed. " 'A great destruction the rain and pesti lence alreadv make in this nation and what is most pitiful ot all, the little children that are innocent and understand nothing, they too, die, briken and dashed to pieces as against stones aud a wall, and there re main of them not even those in their 'cra dles. Of young and old, men and women, there remain neither root nor branch: Thy nation, Thy people. Thy wealth, are leveled down and destroyed. " 'The fire of the pestilence, made ex ceedingly hot, is upon Thv nation, burning and smaking as a 5re in a hut, leavinz noth ing upright and sound. The grinders of Thy teeth (falling stones?) are employed and Thy bitter whips upon the miserable people who have become lean. Has; Thou altogether forsaken Thy nation and Thy people? Hast Thou verily determined tha't it perish and that there be no memory in the world, that the peopled places become a wooded hill and a wilderness of stones? Serenity and Clearness Wanted. " 'Is it already fixed in Thy divine coun sel that there is to be no mercy nor pity for us until the arrows of Thy fury are spent to our utter perdition and destruction, that the snn shall never more shine upon us, but that we must remain in perpetual dark ness and silence? O, our Lord, Thine arrows and stones have sorely hurt this poor people. "O most strong Lord make an end of this fog and smoke of Thy resentment, quench also the burning and destroying fire of Thy anger, let serenity and clearness come, let the small birds ot Thy people be gin to sing and approach the sun; give them quiet weather, so that they may cause their voices to reach Thy Highness. "It may appear 'wonderful that the Aztec priesthood co ilu preserve and hand down to us through the ages this cavern hymn, but it could no more oe lost than could the Lord's Prayer. This hymn of the Aztecs contain many passages, the meanings of which their 'priests bad lost ages before America was discovered, just as our learned theologians for more than 4,000 years have not understood many passages in Job and Genesis. "These legends, traditions, histories of every tribe, race, nation, point to a great and important event, a cataclysm by which the human race was almost destroyed, and this, cataclvsm was followed by an im mense period of darkness, then a great cloud, and then the light returned to the earth. The Great Conflagration. "The traditions of cave life always ac company those in reference to a great fire anil all unerringly point tp the comet as the cause. "Geological records prove that the sur face rocks under the drift have been ex posed to great heat, in many places from 50 to 100 feet deep, and this could come from no other cause than a comet striking the earth. "Our geologists contend that there was an age of thick clouds, of floods, snows, glacier ice, during which the waters of the seas were lowered, and no other cause than a comet could do all these wondrous works. ''From whence came the drift and the gravel and the clays? They are not in places to which nature would carry them unless we admit that a great comet struck the earth and deposited its water, its min eral clays, its gravel and that which we now call the dirt. "There is no harmony in the geological record unless we admit that materials in great bulk came from outer space. The ris ing and falling of the seas, hundreds of feet and suddenly, cannot be denied, nor can such be accounted for except by acces sions from without, such as might have belonged to our moon when it was a comet." The Soho Damp Again. People residing on or near Murphy street, which runs off Forbes street near the dump on the Soho hill, are making vig orous complaints about the condition ot that street There are already a number of cases of typhoid fever ia the locality, and those who have looked into the matter say that an epidemic willbe started if the con dition is not remedied.

The suit is brought by Samuel Treat, who alleges that Hollers stole a silver watch. Scarlatina on the Increase. There were four cases of diphtheria and twelve of scarlatina reported to the Bureau of Health yesterday. The coses are scat tered throughout the city. ' NEW EAST END DEMOCEATIC CLUB. It "Will Apply for a Charter and Support Captain Kerr for Mayor. At its meeting last night the East End Democratic Association instructed its attorney to apply for a charter at once. The association was organized in the Twenty-first ward as a local club last spring. Headquarters were established in Moll's Hall, on Frankstown avenue, and soon the membership began to roll up. It now numbers nearly 100 ot the representative Dusiness and professional men of the city. Eecently it was decided to make the organization permanent and more general in character, and the title was changed to suit The ssociation is opposed to the leaders in city government affairs, and expects to take a lively part in the coming election. T. D. P. Orr, of Heiskel, Hamilton & Orr, is President. He is authority tor the state ment that the majority of the club has uni formnlly expressed a preference for Captain Thomas It. Kerr as the party's candidate for Mayor. Mr. Orr said: "McKenna cannot be elected becanse he is believed to have affiliations with City Hall Republicans. On this account two thirds of his party will not vote lor him, and the Republicans expected to give him their support will use the Baker ballot against him. Mr. Kerr is a substantial "business man who will draw ihe vote of both parties. We believe Captain Kerr is the only Democrat yet named who can be elected." THIBTT SATS EACH, Two Allegheny Tooths Sent to the Work house for Knowinc Too Macli. Hugh Inghram and James Jones, aged respectively 19 and 17 years, had a hearing before Police Magistrate Brinkcr, of Alle gheny, yesterday afternoon on a charge of being suspicious persons. Last Saturday William Marsh, a roller who works at Lindsey & McCutcheon's mill in lower Allegheny, had $187 stolen from his coat while at work. The robbery was reported to Superintendent Muth, who detailed Detectives Steele and Johnson to look the matter up, and they found that the two boys arrested, although they did not steal the money themselves, knew who did. A number of witnesses testified that the boys were troublesome about the mill, and often picked up little articles and carried them off. They were given 30 days each to the workhouse. William Inghram, a younger brother of Hugh, it is alleged, stole the money, and a warrant for his arrest has been issued, but he left town on the day of the robbery and has not been heard of since. He will Be Brought Here. F. M. Snyder, formerly a collector of the Pittsburg Suit Club, is in Detroit under ar rest The man is wanted here by the Club.
