first laurels in the pit of Paris mutuals.
Before the bell rang for the first race.
"Gov. Ross'' was the popular cry. and
Charley Foster just waded through seas
of enthusiasm. The quartette of book
makers looked solemn, and whistled
Johnny Get Your Gun!' The horses
went to the pole wi tn Enterprise cut
ting up, which delayed the start. At
just 1902 the flag dropped and
they were off, Enterprise leading.
Gov. Ross second, Anna third
and as Brer Foster put it, "No More last"
Stevenson rode Enterprise well to the
half, where he still led, Anna second
and Gov. Ross back to third. The talent
looked sad. In the three-quarters Gov.
Ross spurted and took the lead, Enter
prise was at second and Alta, ridden by
Taral, third. 1t was a bunch in the

McLelen gave CaStillian his head and

OwAToNNA, Minn., July 27.-This
afternoon about o'clock William Pan
zer. while working with gang of men
on the railroad about half mile east of
the depot, was struck by the regular
passenger train going west and thrown
several feet in the air, killing him al
most instantly by breaking his neck.
The bones Of his right arm and some
ribs in the right side were broken, and
he received long cash in his arm. He
was standing on the Chicago & North
western track watching freight train
pulling out on the Chicago, Milwaukee
IL st. Paul road and did not hear the
passenger train coming until the engine
whistled, when he started right toward
the engine, it being only about ten steps
away. The train stopped and brought
the body back to the depot. Coroner
DR.. j. II. Adair ordered the body to be
taken to the city hall, where an inquest
was held this evening at 7:30. George
E. Clement, engineer, of Winona; A. D.
Grimes, fireman, of Waseca; W. M.
Hickey, Gustave Bucne, Frank

A RED-HOT FINISH.
The Exposition Stakes Yield One
of the Best of Races.


of the Best of Races.
There was intense interest III the
final event of the day, the Twin City
Exposition stakes, and when the bugler
got off his stereotyped strain the crowd
in the boxes and stand all got on their
feet to witness the start. For a wonder
there was no fooling at the post, and
at the first attempt the field got away,
with Sallie Hagan first from the flag.
Cassius at her girthS and Nevada close
third. At the quarter young Warwick
pulled up the chestnut filly and took
second place to Cassius, under Steven
son, with Nevada still at third, and
Eilke, sitting down in his saddle and
taking things easily, was bringing Ca
talpa along length behind Taral on
Brown Princess. From the stand it
looked as though the Prince SIS was tied
in knot with the strain of Eilke's
Wiry arms at the bit.
At the half Warwick gave Sallie he +
head, and showed her the whip, though
there was little need of the latter eX-
hibition. The gallant little flly meant
to win if it killed her. and as they
turned the three-quarters into the
stretch, she laid back her ears and be-
gan the fastest run home of the meet-
ing, and the closest finish. With the
field coming down the stretch in a
bunch. the excitement got to fever heat.
The ladies in the boxes stood regard
less of the peril of their perch on the
dividing rails, and shrieked aloud
in their anxiety for the result. "Oh
Sallie, come on Sallie; could just hug
that little nigger," said one of
society's pets, as the little coloIed
riders whip ratified like sticks on a
snare drum on the tilly's should ers.

STANDING Rock, AGENCY, Dak.,
July 27.-It is quiet at the agency, as
no conference between the commission
ers and the Indians is being held to-day,
but there is no lack of life or interest
among the Indians who are encamped
a few miles out. They are preparing
for another big council tonight. The
commissioners vi sited the camps of the
warriors during the day, but did not
remain to hear what would be said
in the council. 1t is evident that the
Sioux here are under the control
of the chiefs, and it will require some
pretty fine work on the part of the COM
mission to make break in favor of the
treaty. The news from Cheyenne is
that $50 Indians at that agency signed
after the departure of the commission
ers, and private dispatch from Fort
Sully says that "a signatures were added
at that point to-day. These telegrams
will be read at the conference Monday
in the hope that they will influence the
stubborn reds here, but those acquainted
with the character of the Indians say
they are not to be easily pursuaded.
None of the chiefs are working more
assiduously in opposition than Chiefs
John Grass and Mad Bear, who are said
to be bound together by the most sol
emn pledges never to yield. Grass is
