One OF the principal attractions OF the
fair was Miss Myrtle Peek, the celebrated
Roman standing rider. Miss Peek, who
is young woman, began to ride when
she was little girl on her fathers farm
at Mendon, Michigan. She and her sister,
who is known as Madam Marintette, have
given exhibitions 10 every State In the
Union. Miss Peek is perhaps the better
rider and she Is considered the champion
long distance rider OF the whole world.
Her youth and beauty and her fearlessness,
make her one Of the most paying attrac-
tions to race meeting that can be produ-
ced anywhere. Miss Peek won her first
laurels In 1882, at long-distance riding,
against Miss Lizzie Pinco OF Colorado, and
the first long-distance lady rider this
country ever knew. She travels with a
special car, sixteen horses and six or sew
en- hostlers. She has no difficulty in Sc
curing engagements, and she gets as high
as 81 800 week.-Neaos Graphic.

A SPLIT IS PROBABLE.
Modern Woodmen Meet on Their
Native Heath.

SPRINGFIELD, ILL.,, Nov. 1.-THE BIZ
ennial meeting of the head camp of the
Order Of Modern Woodmen opened here
to-day. The organization has 4,4OO
members in Illinois, Iowa, Wisconsin,
Minnesota and North and South Da-
kOta. The order is considerably torn
up by the conflicting interests of some
of its leaders. and has been involved in
considerable litigation. A largely at
tended meeting was held at Des Moines
in August last at the instance of Head
Counsel Joseph G.. Root. which would
have resulted In the organization
abandoning its Illinois charter and
removing the headquarters to that city
had not an Injunction been obtained
from the, Chicago courts by DR.. McKin-
ney and other members of the manage
ment. Some time ago, also, the head
camp imposed special and double assess
ments on all its local camps, and under
took to suspend members who did not
pay up. The claim was made by the
members that the assessment was illegal,
and two Chicago courts have SO decided,
and eujoined the proposed suspensions.
These and other matters are calculated
to make the present meeting, which
will be held with closed doors, decidedly
lively. and a split in the organization Is
not improbable.

Special to the Globe.
CHAMBERLAIN, S. d., Nov. 11.-Fre-
quent complaints are made by people
living on the frontier because of the ac-
tion of the government IN permitting
the Indians to have in their possession
the very best firearms to be obtained in
the country. 1t is known that everv
male Indian at Lower Brule and Crow
Creek agencies has a Winchester rifle
and brace of Colt reyolvers, in addl-
tiOn to knives and other implements of
war. What is true of these two agen-
cieS is also true of all the other Sioux
agencies. OF course, but few of the
Sioux are still disposed to be ugly and
canse the government trouble; but there
is nothing like being prepared for emer-
gencieS. The present fanatical belief
among the Sioux and other tribes of
the coming of Messiah to releaae
them from the white mans encroach-
ments may lead to trouble never
dreamed of by the government, and
people as we'll. Armed as the Indians
now are, could make things decidedly
interesting, were they so disposed, be-
fore they could be disarmed. The In
dams have no earthly use for firearms.
as the game has long since been driven
from their reservations, aud even if
game abounded there, they would be
too indolent to do much hunting, and
particularly SO while they receive all
the food and clothing they wish for
from the government. 1t is a well
known fact to the people Of the frontier

THREE MEN AGAINST ONE.
Sensational Tragedy on q Race
Course in Georgia.

Course in Georgia.
COLUMBUS. 5. Ga, Nov. IA terrible
sensational tragedy occurred to-day on
the race track at the Chattahoochee Val
ley exposition now in progress in this
city, which has created intense excite.
ment owing to the prominence of the
parties involved. Among the attractions
of the day was a gentlemen's trotting
race in which several well known cen
tlemen entered. Among them was L.
c. Dawson, of GIennyiIle, Ala. There
were probably $4,000 persons on the
grounds and the grand stand was packed
with ladies and children. Immediately
after the close of the race Daw-
son drove into the open space
immediately in the rear of
the judges stand, directly op-
posite the grand stand, and got out of
his sulky. In few seconds the crowd
was startled by the report of pistol
and the sight of Dawson running, pur-
sued by three men VINO were firing at
him. Dawson was seen trying to get
his pistol from his pocket as he ran.
and as soon as he secured the weapon
he turned on his pursuers and returned
the ire. Some thirteen shots in all
were fired. Dawson fell and expired in
few minutes. The attack was sudden
ana IN Such pubic place that many
imagined it was sham fight on the
Wild West order, and this alone pre-
vented panic. As soon as 1t was
known that it was real tragedy, the
grand stand was deserted by the crowd
of ladies. Police were quickly
on the ground and arrested the
three men. who were Dick How
ard and Robert Howard, brothers, and
their brother-in-law, James Biekerstaff.
There were four balls in DawsoD'S
body, two of which inflicted fatal
wounds. The cause of the shooting had
its origin IN family trouble, Dawson
having married and deserted a Miss
Howard, sister of the two men named.
The parties all have strong friends.
The prisoners have secured eminent
counsel. refuse to talk further than TO
claim that they were justified, and ask
suspension of public opinion. Dawson
was son of Hon. w. c. Dawson, a
prominent and wealthy citizen of Ala
bama, now residing in Eufaula. The
Howards belong to one of the oldest and
most respectable families in Georgia.
The tragedy has cast gloom over the
community. The body of Dawson was
examined by coroner's jury tonight.
and the inquest postponed until s

SPREAD OUT TOO MUCH.
England in the Position of an EN-
barrassed Speculator.

New YORK, Nov. 1.-THE Evening
Post, in its financial article, says:
There was a general and important
upward reaction in the stock market
this morning. which was entirely due to
the Improvement in the financial aspect
in London. The most important fact in
the present situation is that it is En-
gland, not the United States, that has
spread out TOO much, and has got into
the position of an embarrassed specu-
lator. The vast enterprises in the most
remote countries of the world, which
she has endeavored to carry out
and keep up their credit on a gold
basis lin some countries where the ONLY
metallic circulating medium was silver,
as the banks IN Buenos Ayres). the two
transcontinental lines of railroads from
there to Chilli, the loans to the Argen-
tine Republic, the diamond mines, rail-
road projects and city Improvement
schemes in South Africa, Australia.
Egypt and Spain, and the recently es-
tablished Canadian Pacific steamship
line to China and Japan-all these have
got England too much spread out, and
while the final outcome of these great
projects is likely to show greatprofits,
for the present England is embarrassed,
and the chief point is the scarcity OF
gold in England. On this point the
United States is in a much stronger
position than England, or, in fact,
any country in the world except France.
While the gold in the Bank of England
only amounts to about $1,000 600, the
treasury of the United States holds
s260,0O0, 900. being the largest accumula-
tiOn of gold in the world, and in the
present aspect of the financial relations
of the two countries we shall be able to
keep 1t. The high rates of interest
here operate in the same way that the
raising of the rates of discount by the
Bank of England are expected to ope-
rate in England-it stops speculation
and keeps the gold here. If it was not
that people here who can control gold
are panic striken, we might easily spare
a large amount of gold to relieve Eng
lands necessities, and SO relieve the
Wnole situation.
