LEXINGTON, Ky, July 24-The rail
road situation in this city is beginning
to assume serious phase. The switch
men in the Cincinnati Southern wards
IN this city have joined the strik-
ers, and no trains are being
handled. Unless the demands Of

roadmen will join in with them.
The engineers will refuse to haul freight
handled by the scabs. Every sidetrack
from Somerset, KY, to Cincinnati,
distance OF 200 miles, is crowded with
loaded cars. The road is losing $40 600
daily. The Kentucky Central Railroad
is IN even worse shape, and last night
not freight train was in motion on
either road. The yards here contain
nearly 1000 loaded cars. Some have
been here week.

The Crescent Mine

Editor INDEPENDENT: The last issue of the
''Mining Review contains an article on
the Crescent mine that is utterly false and
could have been written only from personal
motives.
The statements made to your reporter,
which were published in your issue of the
2lst, are true and the comments made
thereon by Mr.. Williams, of the Mining
Review, are gross lies, and it is lnconceiva-
BILE that man who pretends to run min
ing paper should so far forget himself as to
allow personal grudge to interfere with
the publication of correct news concerning
the mines in the vicinity of Helena.
There are at present ten men en-
ployed at the Crescent, and no less
a number has been employed there since we
commenced work on the steam hoist over
two months ago. We are now, and have
beer for over a week past, taking out at
least ten tons of ore per day. All the mines
mentioned by me to your reporter are with
in radius of five miles from the Crescent.
This so-called editor shows a remarkable
ignorance of the mines near his own home,
and seems incapable of making a trathful
statement concerning any of them.

Notes Around the Fair.

EVERYBODY was delighted with yesterdays
races. They were all run on their merits.
WI Penrose, JAS A. Murray, Hon. Sam
Word and A. j. Seligman were III the crowd.
The result of the meeting will show that
the Helena meeting has been the most sue
cessful on the circuit.
The grand stand was bevy of femininity
yesterday-a view that from distance
looked much like great flower bed.
Secretary Pope says the attendance was
very close to 1900 Yesterday. It has in
creased each day, as we'll as the sport.
The horsemen are highly pleased with
Mr.. Cheeseman's decisions and the way he
sends the trotters off. They prefer him to
Grattan.
Three curews flew over the track yester-
day as Condo won the third heat, and q
woman who noticed them thought it was q
good omen and bet heavily on Conde.
Col. Hundlev is gaining reputation as a
and President Davidson thinks of recon-
mending him for Sheepshead Bay next
year.
Hon. W. A. Clark and Major Martin
Maginnis were among yesterdays visitors
at the Fair grounds. Mr.. Clark is great
race horse enthusiast, but never makes q
bet himself.
The free-for- all-trot Saturday is being
anticipated with great interest. That it
lays between Condo and Manning'is conced-
ed, as they clearly outclass all competitors.
They are two grand horses and their ad-
mirers are anxious to see them
come together again. Condos fast
clip of 1071a in the last half mile of
the fifth heat recalls the remark re-
emily made by Marvin in group of
noted drivers of his ilk, including Orrin
Hickock and Budd Doble. He offered to
wager 81 600 that he could drive Condo three
heats better than 2:1S and Condos per-
Torrance yesterday would seem to lead to
| the conclusion that Marvin knows what he
is talking about. just what Condo can do
is known to only few and he will be a
dangerous competitor in the ee-for-all.
He is now 8 years old and in the prime of
life. Manning has proven himself another
for the free for-all. So far on the circuit
it has been see-saw between these two.
1t is believed that George Moshier was not
urged to do his best yesterday. He will be
another important factn: in the free-for-
all. Charlie Hilton, who was brought to
Montana three years ago with an accredited
record of 2:171a will also be in the race.
This poor old horse made his record over
seven years ago and is now II years old.
He has proven a disappointment to his
owner and is starting probably to save his
entrance money. He has not won race
since he was brought to Montana ard can
hardly be looked upon at this late day to
| race with such good ones as Manning and
Condo or Marquis or l. Jay S.

all fruits, and followed by the wet and

fruit as a means of guarding against late
frosts in the spring, which are great
drawback to fruit culture. The prospects

So per AnnuIn, in advance.

If we can SO modify the conditions ad-
jacent to our groves that the air will
readily pass through, we shall guard
against much of the danger from still
frosts, and my experience of the past ten
years teaches me that these still frosts
are much more to be feared than biz
yards.
Tt is little difficult to comprehend,
but the fact is, the cold does not come on
such night as March 10th, but the heat
passing off into space leaves behind the
condition we call cold.
