One Way Of Winning Q Race.

Touting used to be difficult and dan

he had treed . tout the smith would

reminiscence il given of the Leger of
1888, when Mr.. Watt started Belshaxxar
and Rockingham, the former being the
favorite and Mr.. Watt electing to win

race both horses were we'll; the boy who
rode Belshazzar in training had been or

he was saddled. Mr.. Watt and the train

A Historic Bridge.

One of the most ancient bridges in the
world is that over the main at Frank
fort, which Goethe called the only
structure of importance in that city. II
was erected in 1912, ON the site of ,
much earlier structure. Its immediate
predecessor, built in 1906, was almost
entirely destroyed during violent
food, and rebuilt by funds raised by the
sale Of church indulgences. The build
ing Of bridges was then conaidered . re.
iigious work, because they enabled
pilgrims the better to reach their desti-
nations. It was from the central arch
Of the bridge that criminals were drown
ed, and hence, too, the bodies of suicides
were cast into the river. The last exc
cution by drowning was in 1913. There
is story of an Anglo-Saxon tourist who,
lounging on the renowned bridge, asked
. resident the name of the most conspic
uous statue on it. Charlemagne," was
the reply pronounced Charley Maine.
!" All, perhaps the river, too, takes it,
name from him." was tho astounding
reioinder.
