that degree of confidence which both evil
IDENTIFY did before the race commenced, and
which led to q scene of betting bordering, if
reports are to be credited, upon the e1trav-
agant.'
On the dav before the race the Post said:
''All is hustle and confusion in the city. and
every vehicle of public use and almost all
private conveyances are put into reQulsl-
ton. New York never saw such pressure
before. Should not the principal race take
place, great indeed will be the disappoint-
ment.' There were rumors of disagree

The match between Fashion and Boston
was run on the old Union course in the
town of jamaica and now part of Long
Island City, on May 10, 1912. A newspaper
report of that time says that more than
GOO0O PERSONS were present. The race was
for $50, 900. Fashion was a FIVE yearold
mare bred and then owned by William
Gibbon, of New Jersey, and Boston was the
property of the redoubtable Col. Johnson,
who gained fame as the owner of Sir Henry,
and of his partner, James Long, of Wash
ington. Boston was nine years old. He
was an odds on fayorite i'll the betting.
His rider was Gil Patrick, Il celebrated
jockey of that time, and jos Laird, son of
Fashions trainer, bestrode the mare. The
first heat was closely contested. Fashion
won by length and half in seven minutes
and 32115 seconds. In the second heat Bos-
ton led by length for three miles. In the
FIRST quarter of the last mile Fashion passed
him, and keeping the lead won by fifty
yards in 8:45
There was great jubilation in the north
over the victory. and the south WAS CORE
,pondingly depressed. It consoled the
1orthern sportsmen for the defeat of their
former idol, Postboy, by the southern horse |
John Bascomb. Newspaper accounts say
he southerners present took the defeat in
good humor and expressed willingness for
mother match. Colonel johnson did not
ose confidence in his horse. He offered to
back Boston for $4,000 against any other
,wo horses in the country, and the chal-
enge stood without any takers. Boston

Ocrats Advised to "GO
Fishing"

w. A. Hunter, who is a Demo-
crat and lives III the Second Ward,
received the following letter to-day
from j. w. Howell, who is the
Republican candidate for Council
man in that ward:
W. A. Hunter, Esq, Mexico. Mo.
Mexico, Mo-, March 26.-DEAR
SIR / am a candidate for Council
man from the Second Ward. From
a careful survey of the field it is
very plain that l will be elected
provided I get enough votes,
Now, seriously speaking, / have
no further ambition in the matter
than to faithfully and as ably as
possible. serve the people, and es-
pecially those of the Second Ward
in case of election.
If you cannot see your way clear
ly to give me your vote, 1 would,
in such event, suggest that you GO
fishing next Tuesday. I think
fish will bite well that day. l
think, with little effort, a small
and exceedingly respectable fishing
party could be organized next
Tuesday. Well, be kind to me as
circumstances will admit.
J, w. HOWELL.

Preaching Straight Truth.

The daily Gosette, Phoenix,
Arizona, referring to the protracted
meeting now in progress at that
place. says of Elder Samuel Magee,
of Centraiia:
The Missouri parson is no SLOUGH
of a preacher. Those who have
been attending the series of meet
Ings now being held at the Chris
tan Church SO declare. Every
man and child in Phoenix should
make it a point to attend these
meetings before they terminate.
He is none of your long winded
preach-for-ever parsons. His DIS
courses are short, clear, practical.
No equiyocation, no deceIt, no ly.
ing, but the straight truth and
nothing but the truth.
