LIVELY RACING.
Fine Exhibitions at the Driving
Park Yesterday.
Pleasant Weather Brings Out a
Good Attendance.
Lady Mack and Kitty the Winners
Future Contests.

The races at the Cheyenne Driving Park
yesterday were in point of interest the
most successful that have been held here
for many months. The day was clear; the
track in good condition, fairness ~ofiudges,
drivers and owners of horses was the pre-
dominent spirit and the afternoons sport
did much toward the establishment of a
series of trotting matches between the
many fast horses of the city.
At 2 o'clock the Judges called up the
horses for the first race.
The bay horse Judge Curtis. owned by
MIR. Thomas Swan, and the chestnut mare
Lady Mack, owned by John Chase
entered. The conditions were best three
heats in five Tor a purse of 5000. On the
third trial the horses went away well to-
gether, Judge Curtis taking the lead, but
on the first turn he broke and was passed
by Lady Mack, who came in one length
ahead at the finish in OBS.
The second heat of this race was closely
contested. Lady Mack held the lead to the
home stretch where she was passed by the
bay who came in a good neck ahead in
2:3s.
The third heat was IA pretty contesednd
delighted the hearts of the lovers of the
turf. Judge Curtis took the lead, held it
to the third quarter, trotted in splendid
form, and was bearing down the home
stretch as the winner. when unfortunate
ly his check rein broke, he lost his feet
and was passed by the mare, who won
the heat by "A length in the very good
time of 2;36.
The fourth heat was another close con-
test. At the first quarter Judge Curtis
had a good lead but lost it on the first
half mile. Lady Mack broke at the third
quarter and the heat was against her until
the bay broke on the homestretch, when

A Drunken Cowboy, Being Led to BED,
Shoots a Companion.

Special Dispatch to The Leader.
Rock CREEK, Wyo., August 90
A large number of cowboys, who had been
working the beef roundup, came into
town yesterday afternoon and started in to
paint the community a crimson color. A
number of them became fighting full of
whisky and several scrimmages occurred.
In the evening Leon Williams endeavored
to take Harry Mason, who had got very
quarrelsome, to bed. Mason started off
quietly but soon turned and shot Williams
through the right breast and shoulder,
the ball passing out near the collarbone.
Sheriff NJ. Doze was at once called, and
when he attempted to arrest Mason the
drunken cowboy emptied all the chambers
of his six shooter at him. Fortunately
they failed to take effect. Doze, nothing
daunted, Immediately knocked Mason
down and placed him under arrest. Both
Williams and Mason were taken to Lara
mic City, the former to the hospital and
the latter to Jail. Williams is thought to
be badly hurt.

4 reporter of The LEADER last even
ing interviewed Mr.. Barber, the master of
transportation of Orton's shows. Nh.
Barber and several of his men arrived
here Thursday afternoon, and were entire
ly uniformed regarding the facts of the
destruction of the car or the names of
those who were killed or injured. Aside
from a short telegram announcing that the
circus would appear here to-day, they had
received no word from headquarters, They
had learned, however, that the destroyed
car was the one usually known among
them as the Tough car or the Razor
Back, which derived its name from the
fact that it was used exclusively by the
canvas men and other laborers connected
with the circus. None of the performers
nor any of the effects of the circus are
known to be lost or injured. According
to the latest news received at 1890 this
morning, the circus had left Denver en-
route to this city where performances will
be given to-day.
1t was also learned late last night that
the bodies of the ten men who were
burned lay on a fiat car at Greeley yester-
day from 10 O'Clock in the morning until
7 O'Clock in the evening, being covered
merely with Il piece of canvas. The cir
Gus men wanted to bury the bodies there,
but finally packed the ten corpses in a
rough pine box, ten by seven feet in its
Dimensions, and shipped them to Denver.
The people OF Greeley are indignant at
the entire absence of feeling and even
humanity displayed by the managers of
the circus in their treatment of their de-
cnased nmnlnrns

1t begins to look as if the recent ex-
element regarding cattle diseases in the
West was the work of certain quacks
and politicians who are trying either to
advertise themselves or to magnify their
offices. 1t is very doubtful whether there
really is any contagious cattle disease
either in Illinois or in any other portion of
this country. = Chicago Journal

BOOKS.
Something in Reference to
Their Origin and Present
Position.

The antiquity of book binding is CO.
eval with the art of composing
books, and is another illustration of
the old adage that Necessity is the
mother of invention."' Naturally
the first thought was TO write
the book, and secondly to devise
some means whereby the different
parts could be held together for fu-
ture use and reference. The books
of the ancients being mostly COM
posed Of wood, slate. horn, plates of
horn and copper, and sometimes the
barks of trees. one can imagine
there would be somewhat of diff
Guilty to bs encountered in devising
means whereby they could be Sc.
cured together. 1t is said that the
art probably first consisted in fasten-
ing together sheets of wood or metal
by means of hinges, and from this
rude method the art improved, upon
the introduction Of papyrus and
parchment, by the sheets being
fastened together at the edges, and
affixed at one end to scroll, around
which they were rolled. Didbin, on
the authority Of ,Trotzius, asserts
that Phillatius was the first dis
coverer of substance for making
the sheets adhere together, and that
for this simple Ito us) act the
Athenians erected q statue In his
honor. 1t is also on record that
King Attalus, of Pergamus, was the
first to order the squaring OF books,
and this gave rise to the folding into
twos and fours, or folios and quartos
after the folding, gathering and
glueing of the book, the covers of
board, leather, or vellum, naturally
followed.
Bookbinding Is an art, 1t cannot
be ranked among the mechanics
for while requiring the incest of
mechanical skill, the touch OF the
artist must be ever present, or the
work becomes unsightly and re-
puisive, and although the ancients
were wise In their day, it is evident
that they possessed more love Tor
what We would now term "vulgar
display" than for neatness and SUBJ
stantiability in their books. The
Cathedral of Milan contains, Ia It's
treasury, the covering OF a BOOK
dated prior 10 the twelfth century
measuring IA inches long and Il
inches wide, and being profusely
decorated with encrusted ename'.
and mounted with polished but un-
cut precious stones of great value
This mode of decoration, however
was foreign to the bookbinder's art
and was the work of goldemiths and
enamellers, although We oplne It Is
safe to say that from this ancient
idea of book ornamentalion comes
our present use of gold-leaf Tor let
tering and finishing.
With the invention of printing
came a revolution in the art; books
multiplied and increased, and I'M
menss reductions in the price o.
them has materially followed
France, England and America have
each contributed toward this I'M
provement, while Germany, where
printing was first invented, hal
Jagged behind. And even In thi'
matter is shown the characteristics
of the three nations. French books
excel In taste and finish; English
in solidity and strength; while

A laughable incident occurred the
other evening on the south side car
A nice, modest looking girl took her
seat near the front door of the car
next to middle-aged gentleman.
She laid her dainty lace handkerchief
in her lap to adjust her hat; just as
the car door opened gust of wind
sent the delicate lace 'kerchief into
the lap Of her neighbor. She hesitat-
ed about reaching for it, when the
gentleman, glancing downward, be-
held something white, and being a
little near sighted, at once came to
the conclusion that he had met with
disaster and lost button and his
shirt needed attention. He swiftly
tapped his overcoat across his lap
with his left hand and with his right
hand tucked the offending linen out
of sight in jiify. If any south side
wife has this week found any dainty
lace handkerchief about her husbands
clothes she need not be jealous Elk.

Professor Thompson in recent lee
ture stated that the magnetic pole is
how near Boothia Felix, more than H.
900 miles west Of the geographical
pole. In 1867 the magnetic pole was
due north, it having been eastward
before that. Then it began to move
westward until 1916, when the max
imum was reached. This is now be-
ing steadily diminished, and in 1916
it will again point due north. Pro-
fessor Thompson says the changes
which have been observed not only In
the direction but in the strength OF
the earth's magnetism, show that the
same causes which originally magnet
lied the earth are still at work.
