Park.

PROVIDENCE, Sept. 1.-THE races at Nara
gansett Park were resumed to-day, the track
being in splendid condition.
The 2:24 class race, left unfinished on Tues

more heats. Howard Jay, who had sold i'll
the field, captured both. In the other races
the pool favorites held first place.
The 2:33 class race was left unfinished,
owing to darkness. After the second heat,
Quincy, driver of Onward, was taken out,
and John Murphy, of New York, put in on
the last heat This heat was made much
quicker. The race was very closely contest
ed by Kitty Patchen and Onward, and the
horses were SO nearly even as they came
under the wire that the judges announced u
dead heat.

Not the Ordinary Kind of Lover.


Logansport journal, 18th.
Edward Halfn was the unaccepted, unen-
couraged and unsuccessful sutton for the
hand of Lizzie, who did not appreciate her
lovers love for all her lover thought it was
worth. On Wednesday evening Miss Wag-
ner consented to see Halin, and they took
walk along the river. The conversation bore
chiefly on the matter nearest to Halfins
wounded heart, but the girl was unrelenting.
Drawing revolver he said he would shoot
her and end his own misery in the same way
if she did not comply with his entreaties.
Still his fiery enthusiasm could not melt the
young lady's heart. Then, it is said, he fired
three shots in the air. and handing the gun
to his companion requested her to put his
light out and then shoot herself. He could
not live to see her the wife of another, and
could not die easily if he thought there was
any prospect OF a successful sutton looming
up. The girl took the revolver and, like a
sensible person, flung it into the river, turned
and fed to the city where she met an officer,
upon whose advice she sought an esquire
but swore out no complaint. Halfin left on
his train for indianapolis that night

imprisoned BY a Bear.
Ogden Pilot.

Last Tuesday an old gentleman who
has been engaged in hunting fOrs some
time past, met with an adventure SO
thrilling and interesting that l.e be-
came for some time deranged. He was
hunting near Bingham's mill in Og-
den canon, when deer sprang up and
started to run down the canon. Be
ing good shot, the hunter soon roll
ed it over and proceeded to skin the
same. He had progressed but little
when large bear came rushing to-
ward him. Again he leveled his rifle
and sent bullet crushing through the
thick hide Of bruin. Instead of killing
the bear, 1t only enraged him, and
after a moments delay, more furious
than ever, he renewed the mad rush
for the hunter. Seeing that his only
hope for safety lay in flight, the hun
ter at once dropped his gun and ran
along the hill until a friendly cave
was discovered, and in this he took
refuge. The bea was unable to follow
into the black hole, but obStinately
took a position at the entrance, which
for two days and nights he maintain
ed Occasionally the hunter would
emerge from his hiding place and look
over, expecting the animal had taken
his departure, but each time he re-
turned disappointed. With the i'm
prisonment came hunger and thirst,
and finally the loss of reason. After
forty-eight hours of waiting the bear
finally left, and the hunter slipped
noiselessly from the cave, and rushed
as fast as he could to Bingham's mill,
where he was taken care of, and with
good treatment gained his reason and
related his wonderful adventure.
Search was then made for the bear,
but nothing could be found of him,
although the mouth Of the cave was
trampled hard where he had paced
back and forth doing sentinel duty
watching for his victim.

NO. MORE JUICY BEEF.
The Frozen Product OfChIcago,s En-
terpriso in New England.

No more the Spencer rifle lays the
bullock low ia the eastern slaughter
house, says The Hartford Post; cattle
on foot are brought here only in small
numbers now; the great west has
stolen in upon us, and for few years
past has given us our meat ready
made. Refrigerator cars preserve it,
and 1t is thrO wn in at our doors frozen
as tight as a North American iceberg.
The meat one buys at the butchers
now is this frozen western stuff. It
is of excellent appearance. Look at
that layer Of white fat-how inviting:
that tender meat, how consoIing to
the tired worker. As the consumer
pol6es at itin his ignorance he deludes
himself by believing that it is just the
height of everything in the meat line.
And yet he may be mistaken.
''Ah, said an old judge yesterday,
"but you don't get the juice of the
meat that used to be butchered about
here. That fine, rich flavor is miss
ing. The appearance is fine, but
there's not that nutrition in ii. !"
What means the difference?"
why, you see, the juices are all
IfOZen out OF II. 20 into any Of those
refrigerator cars when they get here.
You find tie frost hanging like cob
webs all over it. The meat has been
subjected to such an intense of cold
ness that it has frozen up. You may
thaw it out as you please, but it will
never get that rich juice back again.
L would rather have cut OF cow beef
killed riUht here than the host e+aoy
meat killed west and brought east IN
a refrigerator car"
And yet it is tender?n
Eyes, it's tender, but all the good
ness has gone out of it. There are
very few cattle killed here now. It
doesn't pay to bring them from the
west. Some people insist upon hav-
ing the good juicy meat of our fore
fathers, and the butchers have to
keep it.

at the Chicago Driving Park.
a Chicago dispatch of the 9th INST
says:
The couple Of thousand people who
took the chance of rain and muddy
track and repaired to the Driving
Park today were richly rewarded.
! They witnessed the fastest mile ever
! paced, and saw for the first time the
figures 2:10 hung QUIT from the judges
stand without any fractional adjunct.
! 2. Y. JOhnson's PAGER Johnson was
advertised to pase for purse of $1,000
to pace his own record of 2:11&, but
few people had any idea he would
lower his record, and the pools sold at
| 800 on johnson to $25 on time. The
slight rain of the morning had soft
ened the track just enough to make
it springing, and it was fast. Very
little wind was stirring, and every
thing was favorable when Pete John
son logged down the track. Immedi-
diately after the first heat in the stall
lion race he was given the word for
the first trial This was little more
than warming up, and he finished
IN 2:224. After q rest of about half
an hour he again appeared for the
second trial. The horse looked in the
best of trim, and his stride was clean
and even. Coming down to the wire
at lively clip the word was given
and the crowd knew that the real
trial was begun. A dozen men stood
about with stop watches, and as he +ass
ed the quarter pole in 323, there was
q FAINT hum among the watchers.
Without skip the bay gelding swung
around into the back stretch Then
he heightened out, travelling like the
wind. He passed the half pole in
1:033.
AGAIN THERE WAS A HUM
among the crowd, only louder this
time. He's going to knock the re-
cord down a peg" oh! why didn't
[ buy pools on him" See him
come. X He amt pa3ing-he's fly
ing" and other kindred exclamations
could be heard on all sides. All this
while the horse was moving like clock
work. He passed the three-quarter
pole III l SO and round on to the home
stretch with his clear, far-reaching
stride, moving as regular as when he
first left the wire When within 200
feet of the wire Johnson raised the
whip and the audience held their
breath, fearful of how the gamey
horse would receive the sting on his
TANKS, but when it struck they saw
/ shat their apprehensions were ground
less, for the horse just threw his head
! a trife and his regular gait never
changed, although he seemed to
lengthen out just a little. The next
instant he swept under the wire, and
at the same time two watches in the
judges stand marked 2:1O, while the
third pointed at 2:093. Everybody
who held a stop-watch outside of the
judges stand, and there were many
old turfmen present, made the time
2:024 The crowd cheered, but rather
family, owing to the lack of num-
bers, when the judges hung out the
time-2:10. They both returned to
the judges stand and looked as cool
as though nothing had happened, al
though it was evident that the two
legged Johnson was a dissembler.
